Chapter 233: No Regrets
Chapter 233
Xiao Xiuzhen met Liu Ke's stern gaze, and her whole body was cold.
But she did not hesitate, and quickly followed them.
Others think Rong Yi is a gentleman and a drunkard and lustful, but she knows that it is not his appearance.
Xiao Xiuzhen couldn't help but think of the first time she saw Rong Yi.
In the summer of two years ago, she took her maid and mother-in-law to the Temple of Mercy and Grace to offer incense.
Halfway through, the mountain road was blocked.
I only saw a group of people gathered there, and I didn't know what was going on.
Xiao Xiuzhen took a picture of someone to investigate.
The person who came back told her that someone had fallen ill while going up the mountain.
Someone is coming to the rescue.
Xiao Xiuzhen had to sit in the carriage and wait, the weather was hot, and just when she was impatient to wait, suddenly the crowd slowly and automatically gave way to an aisle.
Out of the crowd came a flowing man in a white layman's suit.
Through the thin smoke veil curtain, Xiao Xiuzhen couldn't help but be shocked when she looked at the comer.
The person who walked in front of him was gentle and calm, prosperous and elegant, and as soon as he appeared, it was like the sun shining out of the dark clouds that pushed through the black pressure, and fell into Xiao Xiuzhen's eyes.
The man left indifferently in the admiration of the onlookers, and the sick old man had also woken up, and was moved to rest by his subordinates on the side of the road, and the crowd slowly dispersed, but Xiao Xiuzhen's carriage was still parked in the same place.
The coachman asked for instructions a few times, and Xiao Xiuzhen relented and continued to hurry.
Later, Xiao Xiuzhen saw the layman she met on the road that day in the palace, and only then did she know that the person turned out to be the infamous Rong Yi.
When Xiao Xiuzhen knew about it at the time, not only was she not disappointed. On the contrary, he was very happy.
Because, no one with a face in the capital will be willing to marry their woman to Rong Yi, so no one will rob her.
Since meeting Rong Yi on the way to Ci'en Temple, marrying Rong Yi has become Xiao Xiuzhen's life goal to achieve.
On that day, it was also the queen's Zheng birthday, and a banquet was held in Shouning Palace.
Xiao Xiuzhen followed her family to celebrate the queen's birthday.
Midway. She went to the West Pavilion once.
After she finished making it convenient, she was about to leave, and when she stretched out her hand to open the door, she saw the Qiucai who had just been promoted to the title and walked into the ear room next to the west pavilion behind Shouning Palace alone.
At that time, Xiao Xiuzhen was just a little puzzled, why didn't there even be a person to serve around Qiu Cairen.
She was about to open the door and leave. Unexpectedly, he saw Rong Yi walking with drunken eyes, and also walked towards the ear room next to the West Pavilion.
Xiao Xiuzhen looked around, but there was not a single palace maid and eunuch.
The palace maid who came out with him just now didn't know where she had gone for a long time.
Obviously, this is a trap deliberately set by someone for Qiu Cai and Rong Yi.
Xiao Xiuzhen didn't know why this autumn talent came here, and she had never had any contact with this autumn talent on weekdays. However, she couldn't watch Rong Yi be ruined like this.
Having an affair with the emperor's woman, even if he doesn't die, he will be stripped of his skin by the emperor.
She had to save him.
Thinking of this, Xiao Xiuzhen walked out of the West Pavilion and hurriedly entered the West Pavilion Ear Room.
"How could it be, he?" As soon as Xiao Xiuzhen entered the door, she heard Qiu Cairen ask Rong Yi with a surprised face.
Rong Yi was full of wine, with a misty smile on his face, and was about to speak. was interrupted by Xiao Xiuzhen.
Qiu Cai saw someone coming and was about to leave, when there was already footsteps outside.
"Don't hide it yet. Don't die. Xiao Xiuzhen yelled at Qiu Cairen.
Qiu Cairen didn't expect Xiao Xiuzhen, who suddenly broke in, to say such a thing, and after being stunned for a while, he instantly understood what Xiao Xiuzhen meant.
The second room is not big, there is only a wooden bed for the palace maid to rest temporarily, and some sundries are piled up behind the bed.
Qiucai had nowhere to hide, so he could only hide in the pile of debris behind the bed.
She just hid it. And the people from outside came in.
At the moment when someone opened the door, Rong Yi hugged Xiao Xiuzhen and pressed her on the bed.
What people see. Naturally, it is a full bed // spring // color.
When Xiao Xiuzhen drove Qiu Cairen away, she had already thought of her possible fate.
But she never regretted her choice.
Even now, she still misses the hug Rong Yi gave her suddenly.
She thought that the Queen Mother was in charge. With the emperor's finger marriage, he will definitely be able to join hands with Rong Yi for a lifetime, but he didn't expect Rong Yi to risk being punished by the emperor and not agree to this family business.
But Xiao Xiuzhen could only marry the merchant with an unclean reputation.
No one understands what she has suffered in the past two years, but she has never given up.
These things appeared again and again in Xiao Xiuzhen's mind, as if they happened yesterday.
Unconsciously, when they arrived at the gate of the palace, Rong Yi helped Liu Ke into the carriage, and Xiao Xiuzhen didn't look at Xiao Xiuzhen when he looked back, and directly followed Liu Ke into the carriage.
Xiao Xiuzhen watched them ride away, and was immediately ashamed and annoyed.
But now her situation does not give her the capital to vent her shame.
She loves Rong Yi, no matter what Rong Yi does to him, but what kind of thing is Liu Ke, the Liu family is not even worthy of carrying shoes for the Xiao family, and Liu Ke is still the eldest daughter of a widow, what qualifications does she have to play prestige in front of her.
At this moment, Xiao Wuzi, the eunuch beside the Queen Mother, drove a green oil carriage out of the palace gate, and said to Xiao Xiuzhen: "Miss Xiao, the Queen Mother asked the servants to give you a ride, which can be regarded as your decency, I hope you will remember what the Queen Mother said, and do a good job for the Queen Mother." ”
When Xiao Xiuzhen heard this, she was originally a little desperate, but she had some hope in her heart.
"Thank you, Queen Mother!" With that, she boarded the carriage.
When they arrived at the gate of the King of Chu, Rong Yi and Liu Ke had just gotten out of the car.
Liu Ke saw the carriage behind him, smiled sideways and said to Rong Yi: "It seems that this person, we can't accept it." ”
Rong Yi lowered his head, took a deep breath, and said to Liu Ke: "Ake, I'm sorry!" You go in first, I'll take care of it. ”
"It was sent by the car in the palace, and I think the Queen Mother will have something to say. Most of these words should be said to me, I'd better wait here, we are one, naturally we have to face it together. Liu Ke said half-jokingly.
I've thought about it countless times along the way, and it's not appropriate for her and Rong Yi to get to where they are today. She would never let Xiao Xiuzhen ruin their relationship.
Rong Yi shook Liu Ke's hand tightly and said, "Okay." ”
Xiao Xiuzhen walked out of the palace car.
Xiao Wuzi followed behind Xiao Wuzi and came to Rong Yi.
Xiao Wuzi Chong Rong Yi said: "Pass on the words of the Empress Dowager, Chu Shizi, Xiao is the Empress Dowager's in-law, and her status is noble, I hope you will treat her well." Don't let down the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother. ”
Rong Yi and Liu Ke heard this, and both saluted and said yes.
Xiao Wuzi sent Xiao Xiuzhen to Rong Yi, and said with a smile: "Chu Shizi, Miss Xiao will be handed over to you, and the slave will go back to his life." ”
"Well said!" Rong Yi said to Xiao Wu Zi with a shallow smile on his face. "I accepted it, my father-in-law just went to restore his life, and took me to thank the Queen Mother for her kindness."
After Rong Yi finished saying this, he turned sideways and made a gesture of invitation to Xiao Xiuzhen and said, "Miss Xiao, please!" The gate of the Chu King's Mansion is open. ”
Seeing this, Xiao Wuzi turned around and got into the carriage and drove away.
Xiao Xiuzhen stubbornly said: "The prince, the princess, please first!" ”
Rong Yi and Liu Ke entered the gate hand in hand and walked towards their residence. Step by step, she followed.
After Rong Yiyue Liu Ke entered the door, she didn't want to follow up, so she had to stand outside the door and wait.
Yuye and the others don't know why. But seeing that she came back with Rong Yi and Liu Ke, she was afraid that she would be wronged, so it was difficult for her to come forward and ask.
Until Rong Yi's voice came from inside: "Someone! ”
Yuye hurriedly walked in.
"You arrange a place for the women outside, no matter where they are, as long as they can live in people." Rong Yi said with some impatience on his face.
Hearing this, Yuye looked at Liu Ke with a puzzled expression, what should I do if I don't care about this errand.
What does it mean to "stick to any place." As long as you can live in someone's house"?
The stable in the back can also be occupied, can she arrange it?
Yuye said in her heart.
"Let's see if there's a spare yard at home. Clean her up, and tomorrow I'll go to Ya Po's to buy two neat little girls and share them with her. Liu Ke instructed carefully. It's as if it had nothing to do with her.
Rong Yi couldn't be like Liu Ke, and said busily: "Why are you so troublesome, there is still a lack of people around you to serve you, and you have to buy a girl for her, and she is the person in the house of this son." ”
"I have Yuye by my side, and it's enough to have those girls who do rough work, I don't like so many people around me." Liu Ke smiled and said to Rong Yi, "But she is different, she was given by the Queen Mother, so she naturally takes good care of her." ”
When Liu Ke said the word "take care", his smiling eyebrows and eyes bent, which made Rong Yi's heart itch.
Rong Yi raised his palm and pressed it lightly on her head, and said with a smile: "What the hell are you talking about?" ”
Liu Ke smiled but did not speak.
Yuye smiled and went down to prepare.
Now there is no serious person in charge of the Chu Palace, Liu Ke is now pregnant, and there are many things to be handled by Yuye.
Gradually, Yuye gained a little prestige among the slaves and maids at home.
So arranging this is nothing for her.
Yuye learned that the person standing at the door was actually given to Rong Yi by the Queen Mother to make a small one, so she had a plan in her heart.
As soon as he went out, he said to Xiao Xiuzhen: "I don't know what this sister is called?" ”
Xiao Xiuzhen knew that the person who asked her in front of her must be the proud girl beside Rong Yi and Liu Ke, so she said respectfully on her face: "My sister just calls me Sister Zhen, and I will rely on my sister to take care of me in the future." As he spoke, he handed over a pair of shrimp and gold bracelets.
Yuye pushed her back: "In the future, we will be a family, sister is not polite, the princess asked me to arrange a place for you to live, you can come with me." ”
Xiao Xiuzhen was not discouraged, in her opinion, there is no one in this world who is not greedy for money, and sooner or later this girl will accept her.
She put the bracelet away and said, "There is Sister Lao." ”
As they spoke, they walked towards the gate of the courtyard.
At this moment, a man broke in recklessly. (To be continued)
