Chapter 406: Deliberate Humiliation
After more than half a year of absence, I had changed my mood when I came back. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info looking at the city wall standing tall, Xia Xue'er smiled helplessly, she used to try her best to escape from here, but now she took the initiative to come back, this trip to the troubled waters, she has never really gone out!
Because Xia Xue'er is now pregnant with Liujia, in order to reduce the possibility of accidents on the road, the news of their return to Beijing did not leak in advance, and even the emperor did not know about it. Zhu Xuan had the token given by the emperor in his hand, and after passing the city gate, the carriage drove directly back to the palace of the king of Qi, and then it was only half an hour later, Mu Xuanlong changed his clothes and hurried into the palace, and he had already left the palace when Zhou learned the news.
Pushing open the door of the East Fence Hall, except for the dilapidated scene of dead leaves and overgrown weeds, there was not even a single figure, not so much the residence of Princess Qi, but a mansion that had been abandoned for a long time!
Seeing the subordinates who served in the past, let alone Meilan Zhuju, Xia Xue'er walked along the corridor towards the inner room with a big belly, followed only by a bamboo Xuan behind her. It just so happened that at this time, Zhou stepped in, and at a glance saw the familiar back on the corridor a hundred meters away, only to feel a burst of jealous anger in his heart, he thought that she had died in Huangquan a long time ago, but he didn't expect that her life was so big, and she could be unscathed after being kidnapped, but since she was gone, why did she come back?
"Hey!" Zhou pretended not to know, raised his voice and shouted at the back: "The slave in which courtyard is that in front of you, who dares to be good at the forbidden land, doesn't you want to live?!" ”
Hearing this piercing shout, Zhu Xuan frowned and looked back, and saw that the person who came was Concubine Zhou, and was about to explain, but Xia Xue'er asked in a timely manner before he could speak: "Is Meilan Zhuju in the Marquis of Anguo's Mansion?" ”
The tone was plain and natural, as if she didn't care about Zhou's deliberate humiliation at all, seeing this, Zhuxuan didn't pay attention to Zhou, only followed her footsteps, and replied a little more respectfully: "Dongmei and Qiuju are here, but Cuizhu and Xianglan don't know where they went." ”
Xia Xue'er looked up at the yard with cobwebs everywhere, and then spoke: "It's not very convenient for me to move now, so I'm afraid I have to trouble you to help me take care of this yard." "It's really uninhabitable.
Listening to her kind words, I was afraid that she hadn't adapted to the identity of the princess just after she came back, so Zhu Xuan didn't forget to remind her when she replied.
"Since you have returned to the capital, you are the princess, even if you have something to tell your subordinates, you will not be troublesome if you don't talk about hemp."
Hearing this, Xia Xue'er smiled slightly and did not answer, but continued to walk forward. Zhou Shi in the back saw that she didn't reply, and he didn't even pay attention to her, and he was even more angry in his heart! Xia Xue'er is just a princess who is not favored, and her status is a little higher than her, why should she be dismounted as soon as she comes back, after all, she has been wandering outside for a long time, and she has forgotten even the most basic etiquette rules!
chased after him, shouting as he walked: "Dead girl, this palace told you to stop, didn't you hear?" ”
……
Still no one paid attention to her.
"The one in blue!"
Finally, after Zhou shouted this sentence angrily, Xia Xue'er slowly turned around and asked with an innocent face, "Are you calling me?" ”
"You!" Seeing her innocent appearance, Zhou became even more angry, obviously knowingly asking, is there a third woman here? But then her eyes fell on the other party's hand resting on her lower abdomen, although she was wearing a bandeau skirt, which was looser, but it still couldn't cover up the bulging belly, this is ...... Pregnant?
Xia Xue'er also noticed her downward gaze, as well as the expected shock and jealousy that she couldn't hide in time, so she only reached out and pulled the outer pair, and asked at the same time, "Long time no see, how is my sister?" ”
"It's a good ......"
Zhou's mouth repeated mechanically, but his eyes were still staring at Xia Xue'er's stomach, obviously not relieving himself. Zhou was still confused, but the maid beside her had already sobered up, looked at the princess, and then at Concubine Zhou, and was so anxious that she pulled her sleeve and knelt down to salute.
"Slave and maid see the princess, the mother is blessed with Jin'an!"
Hearing this voice, Zhou really came back to his senses, and he lowered his head and half-squatted to salute.
"I didn't know that the princess returned home, she was offended by her words, and she begged the princess to forgive the concubine!"
She said this reluctantly, and Xia Xue'er reluctantly listened to it.
I don't know if the princess is back home? She smiled slightly, this excuse was probably the most unreliable excuse she had ever heard!
This place has become barren like this, obviously no one has ever visited on weekdays, let alone cleaned, and she just said that this is a "forbidden place", when did the place where Xia Xue'er lived become a forbidden place? !
Since it is a forbidden place, then she will come to the forbidden place for a walk for no reason? Not to mention a walk, this is far away from the main courtyard, except for the East Fence Hall and a few idle courtyards, there is only Mu Xuanlong's study Nanshan Pavilion, if it weren't for knowing that Mu Xuanlong brought her back, the Zhou family would dress up so fancy and come here to hang out?
But she doesn't want to meet her now, and she doesn't want to make this jealous woman unhappy, after all, she will have to live in the same house in the future, and she will not look up and see her. The reason why she did this was not because she was a bully and a white lotus, but because she just wanted to fight for a pure land for herself and her children!
After signaling Zhou to get up, she set her eyes on the courtyard and deliberately extended an olive branch.
"Everything grows, and my east fence hall is about to become a deserted garden!" Xia Xue'er said teasingly, then looked at Zhou, smiled and said, "It's not strange to live for a long time, but Sister Lao has to arrange cleaning." ”
"Yes, don't worry."
Zhou lowered his head and replied, squatted again, and then turned around and left, and the maid also hurriedly saluted Xia Xue'er, and when she saw her nodding, she chased after her.
Zhou walked extremely fast. She deliberately humiliated Xia Xue'er, but not only did she not care, but she couldn't even see half of her anger, just like before, no matter what kind of provocation she faced, she was not shocked.
This kind of light breeze is the biggest humiliation for her, Xia Xue'er's indifference makes her look like a fool who runs away, but in fact, she is indeed a fool who runs away.
From the day Xia Xue'er entered the mansion, from the first time she saw him, she knew that she would never win her. And the reason why she has been defeated and defeated again and again is just because she has a breath in her heart! (To be continued.) )
