CHAPTER XXII

After the two said a few polite words, Concubine Zhou asked the maid to accompany her to the garden to enjoy the flowers, and Fu Yuan was about to go back to the room to rest, but was stopped after walking two steps.

"Concubine Fu stays." Xiao Yu quickened his pace and caught up with him, "I heard what you said just now, thank you for being so generous, and for this king." ”

After he settled Xu Yun just now, he overheard the conversation between Fu Yuan and Zhou Yunjie, Concubine Fu's enlightenment was ostensibly planning for herself, but in fact, it was simply to relieve him and reduce criticism, so she was inevitably a little moved in her heart.

Fu Yuan smiled and said: "How can the concubine do anything for the prince, it's just to think about the benefits, which is also a relief for others and themselves." ”

Yu Yu understood the meaning of her pun, which was not only polite and polite, but also euphemistically expressed the dissatisfaction in her heart, but there was no trace of blame in her words. "Miss Xu Yun's matter, this king is a little hasty, but it happened suddenly, this king is a man, and it is impossible to ignore it, I hope you can understand."

Seeing that he sincerely apologized, Fu Yuan naturally knew how to be measured, and said respectfully: "The prince is serious. As far as the Rites and Religions are concerned, it is inappropriate for Miss Xu to enter the palace like this, but now that the concubine is the wife of the prince and the husband is the sky, the husband's situation must be much more important than that of the Rites Sect. So please rest assured that the concubine will definitely treat Miss Xu politely. ”

Xiao Yu nodded, and felt a little more grateful to the new princess.

It was night, Lu Xiaohan was lying on the bed and couldn't sleep, she couldn't figure it out, but it was only a day, how could there be so many changes? Even if it was an accident that she abandoned her bride to come to her room on the wedding night, the fact that the two rolled together and kissed and hugged was not a joke, I thought that last night's behavior would make their relationship deteriorate greatly, but Xu Yun's appearance suddenly reversed the situation. The twists and turns of this day are even more bizarre than what is sung on the stage, and all kinds of pictures are intertwined to torture her crazy.

No way! A shakespeare, she decided that this matter can't just be left undone, on the surface, she is the main owner of this palace, how can she ignore the role of grabbing jobs with herself for no reason? Besides, secretly, I did have contact with him between men and women, how could I be taken advantage of without knowing anything? So no matter what, he has to give himself an explanation.

"Bang bang bang!"

He was whispering to Wishing in front of the window when there was a sudden knock on the doorβ€”no, a slam. He frowned, there was such an unruly servant in the house, and he asked sternly, "Who is it?" ”

"It's me!" Although Lu Xiaohan's voice was loud, it was a little swaying, obviously a little apprehensive, in order to support herself, she lowered her voice and added: "I'm Lu Xiaohan!" ”

Xu Yun was a little surprised, although she and Lu Xiaohan did not meet directly, but for a long time, she always knew something about her from the mouth of the whisper or from the side, and it stands to reason that she should not have the confidence to come to the door like this.

Xiao Yu pondered for a moment, helped Xu Yun up from his arms, and said softly: "This king will go out for a while, you drink some tea first." ”

Xu Yun was puzzled, after all, according to her previous attitude towards this princess, she would definitely be reprimanded angrily if she didn't see it, but she never liked to interrogate him, so she only silently agreed to him.

Lu Xiaohan walked back and forth outside the door dozens of times, and when he saw that there was no movement in the door, he was about to continue to knock on the door, but as soon as he raised his hand, the door squeaked and opened inward.

"In the middle of the night, what are you making a fuss about?" He reverted back to his eternal glacial face.

Xiao Han became even more angry when he saw him looking like he was nothing, and said, "Don't you have anything to say to me clearly!" ”

He didn't answer immediately, but glanced into the room carelessly, for fear of disturbing the one inside. Then, he lightly closed the door, stepped down the three steps in front of the door, and then replied calmly: "The king who should be said has explained clearly in the lobby this morning, Concubine Fu and Concubine Zhou are very sensible, is it difficult for you, to be a concubine, is it not as good as the belly of the side concubine?" ”

Lu Xiaohan's eyes widened, he couldn't believe that he actually mentioned everything so lightly, "You will also say that I am your real princess, but you have never informed me of such a big event as bringing a woman home!" ”

"This king chooses concubines and concubines, and the emperor has no right to ask, so why should he report it to you?"

"Whisper!" She was so angry that she snorted his name, "How can you be such a scoundrel? The emperor and you are a monarch and minister, so naturally I can't take care of your housework, but I am the princess you are marrying and carrying back from a sedan chair, if you really want to treat me as air, unless a letter of resignation divorces me, otherwise I will have a seat in the four sides of the world! ”

Although he had known that the princess's temperament had changed drastically for several months, this anger still surprised him, it turned out that Lu Xiaohan was so fierce when he started a fire, and he was aggressive in his words and refused to leave a way back, and his full confidence seemed extraordinary.

"Lu Xiaohan, do you know what foolish things you said." He tried to appear as calm as possible.

"I don't need to be reminded by the prince, I know every word. Rather than be a walking dead with you, I'd better go home and be confined by my father for a few days. Saying that, she sneered, "I want to see if I, Lu Xiaohan, walked out of this door today, can you and your sweetheart have a peaceful life." ”

Hearing this, Yu Yu suddenly raised his head, because these words were a threat to his ** naked, and the implication was that if he provoked her Lu family, he would definitely not be able to eat and walk around. But in addition to being angry, he thought about it again, although the Lu family can't directly deal with themselves, but it is an important force in the imperial court, if it really tears his face, then he will have a big rival from then on; More importantly, if this matter is big, and when the Queen Mother and the Emperor intervene to come in, then only Xu Yun will be the one who bears the black pot in the end. Thinking like this, he suppressed his anger and said to her coldly, "What do you really want?" ”

"I wantβ€”" Xiao Han blurted out, but she stopped, she wanted him to give herself an explanation, to make it clear what the intimacy and lingering of that day were? Was his worried and caring eyes true or false that night?

But after all, she still couldn't ask, maybe from the beginning, there shouldn't have been such a question between herself and him.

"What do you want?" He was actually a little curious about what was going on.

The excitement of the moment had passed, Xu is evening breeze was clear, and Lu Xiaohan calmed down a lot, she took a few steps back in a slight daze, and said with a wry smile: "Forget it, it's just some obsession," she shook her head vigorously for a while, desperately trying to get rid of the distracting thoughts, "The prince just thought I hadn't been here." ”

Xiao Yu looked at her back as she turned to leave, and an inexplicable impulse ran in her heart: "Lu Xiaohan!" ”

She stopped, but didn't turn back. There was a short distance between the two.

"Last night......" he hesitated, not sure whether to say it or not, or what to say, "this kingβ€”"

"I was drunk last night, and if there is any crazy talk, I hope the prince will forgive me, just as if nothing happened."

After saying that, she ran out of the yard with a violent back pain, and I don't know if it was because of the strong wind or some other reason, her eyes were wet with tears, blurring her vision.

Xiao Yu stood in place for a long time, looking at the hall that had long been empty, and his heart was vaguely empty, this is an indescribable taste, no pain, no itching, but something is missing.
