Chapter 407: Defenseless
"Who is the 'old man' of whom the king speaks? The parents and ancestors of the slave concubine, or the qin gong who negotiated the score? ”
I had a gut feeling that Yingzheng was unhappy that Lin Jixiang and I met occasionally in private, but he didn't say it explicitly, so I had to force him to say it in a questioning style and solve these things by saying his taboos.
"You're so smart that you don't know what people think?" He took a step forward, leaned down to my face, looked directly into my eyes, and asked, "Or do you not have the energy and time to think?" ”
Getting closer, I can feel his strong jealousy more clearly, but Qi Guozi has been rummaged through by his people and has not found any evidence that I have ever been good with the noble son of Qi Guo, and the current situation that he still cares so much about my affairs makes me hold my breath.
"What do you mean by asking?" I stubbornly looked at Yingzheng.
My non-answering rhetorical question made Yingzheng raise his eyebrows angrily.
"Does it matter?" He reiterated my words and refuted my words.
He's my husband, the man I'm going to be with for the rest of my life, doesn't it matter if I have the energy and time to think about his thoughts?
I was depressed in my heart, and I said it so politely.
"The king doesn't think it's important, so he doesn't have to answer."
Narrowing his eyes, Ying Zheng's chest rose and fell because he inhaled too hard - the reason why he inhaled vigorously was to suppress the irritability that he couldn't hold back.
"The widow is asking you, do you think it's important?"
It was an incredible event that the childish incident of throwing problems back and forth between me and Yingzheng was simply an incredible event, but he and I were angry, and neither of us realized how boring our words and deeds were.
"What is the result of the king's investigation in Zibo, is it like the New Year's Eve, the great one has covered up something for the slave concubine?"
Because of my excitement, because I wanted Yingzheng to relieve the taboo of my heart, I boldly provoked the topic of the hidden estrangement between us.
Hearing me take the initiative to talk about New Year's Eve and Zibo, Ying Zheng's eyes became more and more cold.
"The widow did something wrong. Or do you simply not want the widow to do that? ”
He was scolding and threw me another question.
"So, did the king find out something? Then you should tell the concubine what disgraceful deeds the concubine had in the past, so that the king should care so much about the words and deeds of the concubine?
Could it be that when you are in the inner palace, just by chance there is a sympathetic Qin Gong to speak, and the slave concubine will be distracted and lose the dignity of the king? ”
If Lin Jixiang really wants to cut off the relationship between me and Ying Zheng and leave any clues in Zibo that can make Ying Zheng hate me, then I should accept it, instead of letting Ying Zheng block it for me, which is unfair to Ying Zheng;
If Lin Jixiang takes care of my life and handles the affairs of Zibo cleanly, then I don't want Ying Zheng to have an unsolvable knot in his heart. Those who used to linger in my heart are just that, it shouldn't be up to Yingzheng to deal with anything.
Hearing that I understood the source of his anger, Ying Zheng's eyes flickered slightly, his eyebrows soothed slightly, and he said in a cold and hard air: "What are you angry about?" ”
Since he doesn't want to admit it because of his machismo, then I'll help him admit it.
"Isn't the king dissatisfied that the concubines are not conservative enough and open to interacting with men and women other than you, if the king doesn't like the acts of the concubines, why not just say it, and he will suppress the evil fire so that he can't hold it back?"
My insulting remarks provoked Yingzheng's eyes to narrow again. There was an extremely dangerous aura in his eyes, and I knew that if he couldn't be embarrassed, then I would never recover.
"Did the widow say that the widow is taboo about your knowledge of men and women?" He asked me through gritted teeth.
I'm afraid of Ying Zheng's angry appearance. I was especially afraid of the way he was angry with me, but I came up stubbornly and I was hot-headed.
"The king means that he wants to be an enlightened husband, well, if the concubine wants to face the light defenselessly. Will the king be willing? ”
I want to fight for a moment, so as to break the vinegar of Yingzheng's disguise, but I forgot about it for the time being, and my "wild" words will make Yingzheng lose his mind and end up with me.
The knot of the eyebrows locked into two iron bulges. Ying Zheng snorted heavily, and asked me angrily.
"'Defenceless'? What's going on your head? ”
His teeth were grinding, and because he was so close, I could hear the "clatter" of his two rows of teeth as he gritted too tightly.
The back of my palms was covered with sweat, and I breathed sharply to calm my mind and quickly explained the source of my words.
"This is what the imperial doctor said, so that the cold in the concubine's body can be eliminated."
After I finished speaking, I watched Yingzheng subside a little bit of arrogance, and regretted: "The slave concubine just wants to say that the body is a gift from heaven, and the prejudice between men and women is artificially added, just like bathing in the sun nakedly, it is not necessarily a shameless thing, and it may also be a technique to save people, Your Majesty..."
I wanted to try to explain to Ying Zheng, but Ying Zheng suddenly interrupted the progress of the steps I was building for him.
"Which imperial doctor said that? If it is really a technique to save people, how can the widow abandon it. He was reckless.
He cares so much about even me and Lin Jixiang, if I am naked and exposed to the bright daylight, will he be able to stand it?
"Is the king really so reluctant to admit his inner thoughts?"
I am angry with his stubbornness, and I am also angry that I can't let his stubborn temperament go by myself.
Ying Zheng is still holding on to his stubbornness.
"Is it Yu Huai? Zhao Gao, bring Yu Huai to the widow. He looked at me and didn't give an inch.
Since he asked for proof, there was no need for me to stop him, so I slanted my gaze to the flowers next to me and waited for Yu Huai's arrival; Seeing that I no longer looked at him, Ying Zheng also angrily looked in the opposite direction from me, and waited against me.
Less than a meter away, relatively dry standing, stubbornly looking in one direction, without a word of communication, this is a strange picture, not to mention that one of the protagonists of the picture is still a conscientious immortal has free time, so Yu Huai hurriedly ran over to see us, obviously paused, but he was not good to stand like us, so he approached and knelt down in a panic.
"The servant greets the king and his wife."
Yu Huai's voice broke the silence between me and Ying Zheng, who looked back and turned to Yu Huai, who was bowing down, and asked him loudly.
"Yu Huai, in your words, can Mrs. Xi's body cold and depression be cured by miracle tricks?"
Ying Zheng's question went straight to the point but did not say what he wanted, which made Yu Huai very puzzled, he looked up at Ying Zheng in surprise and then looked at me, and instantly understood the connotation of Ying Zheng's question.
"Back to the king, Mrs. Xi's body cold is not a one-day disease, and it was relieved by drinking medicinal herbs earlier, but Mrs. Xi is a pregnant person, and the slave is afraid that using too much medicine will be detrimental to the fetus, and he is also afraid that Mrs. Xi's body will aggravate the pain, so he dared to build Mrs. Xi to take off Muyang to warm her body by taking advantage of the skylight."
Hearing that Yu Huai really had such a set of words, Ying Zheng's face became even more stern.
"Is there a basis for such a strange trick?" He clearly didn't want that to happen.
Yu Huai must have heard Yingzheng's words, but he was not at all transferred by Yingzheng's will.
"The light of the earth, the heaven slaughters man, the grace of heat, and all-encompassing. The slave did not dare to guarantee that Mrs. Xi could cure the depression, but this method was more harmless than medicine, so it was also the best protection for young children. ”
Ying Zheng's mood became more and more restless, and his angry gaze shifted from Yu Huai's body to Li Hong, who was serving, and asked him, "Li Hong, you say." ”
After following Ying Zheng for many years, how could Li Hong not know that Ying Zheng was so obviously dissatisfied, he bowed forward and said words of advice to Ying Zheng.
"The king of enlightenment, it is contrary to common sense to show the sky naked, and it is also not with the reputation of the Wang family..."
Ying Zheng didn't have the temper to listen to this, he decisively interjected and said the information he wanted.
"The widow didn't ask you about the Outline Ritual Law, but just asked you to tell you whether Yu Huai's method is feasible."
Faced with the impatient master, Li Hong was in trouble for a while, and when he heard the word "say" urged by Ying Zheng again, he had to open his mouth with difficulty.
"Light and heat do help with blood flow, but—"
However, Li Hong didn't have a chance to say anything, because Ying Zheng had already got the answer he wanted, turned to look at me again, and Ying Zheng coldly gave me an order.
"If that's what you think, then do it."
I was speechless for a moment, and I couldn't speak with thousands of words in my heart: I was annoyed by the topic I had raised, and I was also angry that Ying Zheng had attracted Yu Huai, and now that no one had stepped down, but they had gone together to the worst consequences of the conversation.
Ying Zheng left in a hurry, and I also returned to Qixi Palace in a lonely mood, knowing in my heart that we care about each other, but the stupid things we do to each other because we care are also very sad.
"Madam, the king's unification of the seven kingdoms and the celebration are in full swing, and the slaves and maids heard that many dignitaries have returned to Xianyang to wait for the court, I don't know if Princess Huayang will come back.
If Princess Huayang comes back, will you tell her about the notoriety that Mrs. Jing gave you back then? ”
Luo Cong's words further made me realize that the predicament I was facing was not one or two points of intertwinedness, and I put away my lonely and sad feelings, and I held the teacup back to my mind.
"Princess Huayang has done a lot of things against me over the years, I think she is angry, and she is almost dissipated, whether to say it or not, Mrs. Yu Jing and the three of us seem to have little meaning."
Walking around the rumors, investigating my life experience, assisting Mengtan to enter the palace, these sparse events all reveal Huayang's dissatisfaction and anger towards me, I endured her actions, but in the end I found that the truth is actually not so important, is this my sadness?
"Then wouldn't we be cheaper Mrs. Jing." Luo Shallot pursed his mouth.
I looked at her cute appearance and smiled, mentioning Huayang, I suddenly thought of Chestnut Ear, so I asked Luo Onion by the way: "Chestnut Ear is coming back?" ”
If Chestnut comes back, Tian Tianyu, who has lost his loved ones, should be able to feel better. (To be continued......)
