==Chapter 80==
Chang Shun saw that the King of Chu's face was dark and inexplicable, so he stood aside with his hands tied and did not make a sound.
He knows this master's behavior too well, even if the King of Chu is obscure many times, but he is not an ordinary person, he has always been by the side of the King of Chu for a moment, and he knows many things hidden below.
As a result, there is no need to think about it, since Jiu Niangzi was turned away, although that girl made Chang Shun's mood quite complicated, and many times she loved it, but in extraordinary times, she should naturally make way for the general trend. has been following the King of Chu for a long time, and Chang Shun's behavior is somewhat similar to that of the King of Chu.
"Let someone go and welcome her in."
King Chu's deep male voice broke the silence in the room, and Chang Shun raised his head incredulously, "Your Highness." ”
"There you go."
The king of Chu said again, and then he no longer looked at Chang Shun, but picked up the tea cup on the table again.
Even if Chang Shun had more words, because of the previous experience of 'committing the following crimes', he swallowed his words back. He sighed a little in his heart, His Highness is older, and he has more ideas, he shouldn't question it too much, and His Highness has always had a lot of ideas, since he does this, he must have his own ideas.
Pressing all the moods, often following them, then go outside.
Jiu Niang sat in the car, her temples were beating and hurting, and her heart was beating fast.
It's been a long time since she's been so breathless.
"Lady, are you alright?" Lianzhi seemed to see Jiu Niang's uneasiness, and couldn't help but ask.
Jiu Niang shook her head and smiled reluctantly.
Although Lianzhi is Jiu Niang's henchman and maidservant, she has always been in charge of Cuiyun Pavilion, so she doesn't know about some of Jiu Niang's things outside, and even the private house has always been the responsibility of Xiao Cui and the coachman Da Kui. Although Lianzhi didn't know the clue to this, she also saw that her lady was driven by the old lady to put on the shelves today, and she was naturally angry, but she was a maidservant, and she couldn't say anything. In particular, there was another maid sitting in the car, and Lianzhi knew that this person was sent by An Rongyuan to monitor the lady.
A hurried but surprised male voice sounded outside the carriage.
It's the hair butler.
Jiu Niang's eyes moved, and the maid in An Rong Yuan took the initiative to step forward and lift the curtain of the car.
"Lady, please get out of the car, there has been a word in the palace, please let the lady into the house."
The always calm housekeeper Mao has a smile on his face that can't be hidden. Not far behind him, there was the porter, and his straight waist had already bent down unconsciously, and he was repeatedly glad that he was 'confused' just now.
Jiuniang was a little surprised, her cousin actually let her in, why didn't she turn her away?
At this moment, Jiu Niang was ready to be turned away, and even thought about how to deal with herself in the future, but trouble came one after another, and it was not that she had not experienced it in her previous life. In her previous life, she didn't have the position of county lord, so she came over like that, and she didn't believe that she couldn't get by now.
Thinking so, I was a little apprehensive in my heart. Therefore, it was really unexpected for her at this time, and the surprised expression on her face was revealed without concealment.
Fortunately, no one paid attention to her at this time, and the two maids took the lead in getting out of the car, and then turned around and helped Jiuniang step on the carriage and get out of the carriage.
When she entered the side gate of the palace, Jiu Niang was even more surprised, and when the leader saw her coming, he greeted her, and it was Chang Shun.
Good war, surprised a lot, not surprised, left but wait for her to know why the king of Chu will not play according to the card.
The group marched inward, and after moving forward for a while, Steward Mao and the others were stopped, along with Lianzhi and the maidservant girl arranged by An Rongyuan.
Lian Zhi and Steward Mao didn't say anything, probably knowing that this might be the rule of the Chu Palace, but the maid was not so eye-catching, and when she saw Jiu Niang following Chang Shun forward, she couldn't help but call her a lady.
Jiu Niang stopped, looked back and frowned at her.
This maid has a good face, a medium complexion, and a hint of eagerness on her face, "Aunt Hu asked the slave maid to serve the lady with her." ”
It's a pity not to be a smart one.
Jiuniang hooked the corners of her lips, turned her head and continued to move forward, and heard the lotus branch behind her scolding her: "I'm still a lady's personal maidservant, I'm not in a hurry, what are you in a hurry!" ”
"You-"
Lian Zhi ignored whether she was sent by An Rongyuan, and she didn't even bother to take care of her when she saw the lady. Lianzhi has always had eyes, and as soon as the corners of Jiu Niang's lips moved, she knew what to do.
Witnessing this qiē Mao steward is only invisible, today the nine ladies entered the gate of the Chu Palace, and it is still the legendary Chang Nei Servant who came to greet him personally, not to mention a maidservant, even if it is the main mother of the second room of the big house after going back, she has to coax the nine ladies with a good voice.
Steward Mao was so bright, he could see that the servant girl was angry after being reprimanded, but because this was the Chu Palace, he didn't dare to quarrel with the lotus branch, and it was estimated that he was going back to prepare to give the two of Jiuniang's master and servant eye medicine.
He snorted in his heart, and followed the subordinate who led them to rest.
*
The palace of the king of Chu is unusual, carved beams and painted buildings, heavy buildings and cornices, a good scene of extreme wealth.
It's just that there don't seem to be many people in the house, and there is silence along the way, the air contains a cold coolness, and the grass and flower beds on both sides of the road and the treetops are covered with a thin layer of snow.
Jiu Niang followed Chang Shun and walked inside, and after walking for a while, he arrived at a quiet courtyard.
When I entered the courtyard and stepped into the door, I saw the King of Chu sitting peacefully under the window, with his handsome and flawless face facing the door, drinking tea.
The king of Chu wore a well-tailored blue silk brocade robe, with a darker royal blue brocade embroidery pattern at the placket and narrow cuffs, and a sapphire ring on the thumb of the slender palm holding a tea cup, which was lined with white and creamy, and a black hair was all held on the top of the head, and it was fastened with a three-finger-wide jasper hair crown.
The king of Chu has a good skin, and he is usually presented in front of outsiders either noble or cold and hard, but he is rarely so gorgeous and graceful.
Yes, gorgeous and graceful.
This kind of word should not be used to describe a man, but at this time, when Jiu Niang saw the dress of King Chu, her mind was full of this feeling, and a look of surprise flashed in her eyes. After being dizzy for a moment, Fang is Qingming, this kind of experience has added up to a lot in Jiu Niang's two lives, and it has not been revealed.
"Cousin-" There was a hint of hesitation in Jiu Niang's voice.
The King of Chu raised his eyes to look at her, nodded, there was no other emotion on his always indifferent face, he put down the tea cup in his hand, and said, "Let's go." ”
"Where?"
"Out of town."
Until she got into the carriage, Jiu Niang couldn't react.
She knew too well what kind of trouble she would bring to the King of Chu if she appeared in the Chu Palace, but he didn't say a word, as if this matter was very ordinary. Jiuniang really couldn't figure out what Wang was thinking, but it caused trouble, and she was also a little worried and complicated in her heart.
"Cousin—"
King Chu hummed lightly, and his tone rose slightly, representing the meaning of inquiry.
Jiu Niang wanted to find something out of his face, but the indifferent demeanor of King Chu was really a little uncooperative, Jiu Niang was a little discouraged in her heart, and she was also a little inexplicably aggrieved, and she snorted: "Cousin, I'm causing you trouble, I shouldn't have come, but ......"
She told all about what happened this morning.
"It doesn't matter."
……
This 'okay' sound is extremely light, but it caused turbulence in Jiu Niang's heart.
An inexplicable feeling rose from her heart to her throat, making Jiu Niang feel her lips tremble slightly. This is an unprecedented love, Jiu Niang lowered her head suddenly, not wanting the King of Chu to see the strange look on her face.
I said that Jiu Niang has always been smart, how could she not understand the meaning behind King Chu's 'okay'? Once, Jiuniang hated the surname 'Xiao' she was carrying very much, if she could choose, she would rather be born in a family of ordinary farmers, no need to be rich, as long as there is a father and a mother, the whole family is happy.
But Jiuniang also knew that this was an extravagant hope, from the moment she was born, her fate was already doomed, destined to sink in endless trouble.
has experienced so much in her previous life, even if she has her back to the mountain of King Chu, there has never been a person to shelter her from the wind and rain, and she has never carried the storm alone, so she has developed the disposition that she has never shielded everyone from herself.
Even if it is for her own sister, she arranges everything thoroughly, giving her everything she needs, but she never communicates with her. Even Wang Shilang, as a husband and wife in her previous life, she never bothered to explain what she said and did, she felt it was right, so she did it. In her previous life, she was like that, and she didn't have her character, she may be smart and intelligent, but she also has her own arrogance, and if she doesn't listen to the explanation, she won't explain anymore, so the husband and wife are getting farther and farther apart.
Including for the backer of King Chu, she may be dog-legged or full of flattery, but in fact, her heart is also very clear. There is no good in this world for no reason, and if you want to get something, you always have to pay the price you deserve, this is a summary of all her experiences in her previous life. Therefore, for the king of Chu's giving, she has always gone all out to give in return, which is why the poisonous girl made that kind of request later, but the king of Chu obviously didn't say anything, but she took the initiative to go.
It is said that it is a kind of "I don't want to owe you" to draw a clear line. Jiuniang is cold by nature, but it is a pity that few people can see through this qiē through their true appearance.
Reborn back, there are too many differences between this life and the previous life, the biggest difference is that the King of Chu has changed, the King of Chu who was cold and indifferent and ruthless in the previous life, although he has the same face in this life, he has changed too much, is it really the influence of that 'life-saving grace'?
Jiu Niang used this reason to convince herself every time, but even she felt that this excuse was a bit nonsense, and the King of Chu was never a person who valued love and righteousness......
The carriage moved forward slowly, but Jiuniang in the car was rarely at a loss.
*
Meng Changxi arrived one step later than Xiao Jiuniang.
She came to the door repeatedly, but she was repeatedly rejected, and the king of Chu made a mistake and was punished by Emperor Chengyuan for thinking about it behind closed doors, so she stopped coming to the door.
After the king of Chu was lifted, she reverted to her old ways, in the end, because she was behind her family's back, she didn't dare to go too far, and only came two or three times.
This time, when she arrived at the gate of the Chu Palace, she saw the carriage of the Xiao family, and the maidservant went to the gatehouse to hand over the post, and she herself sat on the carriage and looked at the carriage marked with the Xiao family emblem. After a while, I saw someone come out to greet people, although Jiuniang was wrapped in a cloak, it was for Meng Changxi to see clearly.
Xiao Jiuniang?
How did she come here?!
Between thoughts, the group of people had already swaggered into the Chu Palace. Meng Changxi gritted her silver teeth secretly, and waited anxiously for the maid's reply. This time the king of Chu must be in the mansion, otherwise Xiao Jiuniang would not have been put in, but unfortunately the maid came back and said in frustration, His Royal Highness the King of Chu is busy with official business-
Missing!
Meng Changxi threw the stove in her hand on the spot, but it was impossible for her to go to the door of the Chu Wangfu to make a fuss, all kinds of emotions breeded, so that she was sitting in the car, and her beautiful little face was hideous.
At this moment, several more carriages drove out from the side gate of the palace, and Meng Changxi just glanced at it and saw the frame of the King of Chu.
"Brother ...... King of Chu"
She lifted the curtain of the carriage and leaned out to call softly, only to be answered by a crowd of chariots and horses.
The wind was cold, and I don't know when fine snowflakes were falling.
