Chapter 048: Secret Talk
Coming out of the study, Ruo'an looked gloomy, and when Ziyan saw this, she put down the work in her hand and stepped forward to ask, "Sister?" What's wrong with you? What about aunts and uncles? ”
Ruoan smiled reluctantly: "They went back......"
"So fast?" Ziyan's eyes widened. Ruo'an nodded: "It is a great favor for the queen to allow them to visit the palace, and it is not appropriate to ......stay for a long time since they have seen it."
"Sister, don't be sad, it's good that you still meet each other......" Ziyan said with relief, Ruo'an smiled bitterly and didn't speak, in fact, she knew in her heart that the queen mother had noticed herself, this was just the beginning, and the days in the palace in the future were destined to be bloody......
sent away Ni Ruoju's biological parents, and it didn't take long for Zhengxiang Palace to usher in the Wanxi Niangniang of Yirong Palace......
When Jinping helped Wanxi Niangniang to come in, Leng Chen was still sitting in front of the desk, he frowned, fell into contemplation, Yanlu's father-in-law shouted several times before he came back to his senses, and saw that Wanxi Niangniang was already standing in front of him, so he spoke: "Why is Wanxi Niangniang here......
"What do you want to be so engrossed?" Wanxi Niangniang sat on the chair next to her as she spoke, and Aunt Qiao'er brought the tea and put it on the coffee table next to her, and then retreated out of the room.
Wanxi looked at Jinping beside him and nodded, Jinping saluted His Highness, and then followed him out. Yanlu is an old man in the palace, how could he not see the clue in this, so without waiting for His Royal Highness's orders, he followed Jinping and retreated.
There were only two people left in the room, Wanxi Niangniang and His Royal Highness, Wanxi Niangniang's eyebrows were instantly twisted together, and she asked sharply: "Chen'er!" There are no outsiders here, and you have to be honest with me this time! ”
Leng Chen's face was indifferent, he seemed to have expected the purpose of Wanxi Niangniang's coming here today, and replied very calmly: "Niangniang wants to know what Lu Dao ...... do"
"What do you know? Shouldn't you give me an account? I am for the sake of your mother's face, so I sacrificed my life to help you! How can you be so confused, because a little palace maid has plunged herself into dire straits, and all these decades of forbearance have been in vain? How can you be worthy of your mother's spirit in heaven for such a ridiculous act! Wan Xi Niangniang roared, trying her best to restrain the emotions in her heart, but when she thought that Leng Chen would be so nonsense, the anger in her heart could not be contained.
Leng Chen didn't speak, just stared at the white wall silently, as if he was preoccupied. Wanxi Niangniang thought that her words were too much, so she was relieved: "Chen'er, don't blame Bengong for his heavy words, it's all for your good...... Your mother went early, and before leaving, she asked me to take care of you, and I will never see you ruining your future because of a woman! ”
"Chen'er is not thoughtful, and it hurts Wanxi Niangniang...... Leng Chen said and bent down to give a salute to Wanxi Niangniang.
Seeing him hunched over his waist so hard, his weak legs couldn't help but tremble, and most of Wanxi Niangniang's anger disappeared...... Leng Chen is a hard-working child, although he is a prince, he lost his mother when he was very young, and he was injured when he was young, and his hamstrings and veins were damaged, so he could only rely on a wheelchair to walk. This child has learned to forbear since he was a child, and he is a little more mature and sophisticated than children of the same age, he has always done very well, and gradually has the strength to support himself in the court, but this time he did it so out of line, and even had to lie in front of the queen, it was really a risky one. If it weren't for the face of the former queen's mother, Wanxi Niangniang would definitely not wade into this troubled water......
"You've always been cautious, why are you so foolish this time...... What is the origin of this woman? You should tell this palace......" Wanxi Niangniang saw that Leng Chen was still hunched like this, and her tone couldn't help but soften.
Leng Chen raised his body and slowly responded: "I know that Wanxi Niangniang is for Chen'er's good, but I have a reason to keep this person, even if I want to take risks, I am willing to give it a try......"
"Confused! Confused! What reason does she have for you to take such a big risk? Over the years, the queen has always regarded you as a thorn in the flesh, can't you feel it? She can't wait to catch you and beat you to the point where she can't recover! "Wanxi Niangniang is really angry and anxious, she is really anxious for Leng Chen, this kind of problem woman stays by her side, she will only continue to cause trouble, and now the queen seems to have set her eyes on her.
Wanxi Niangniang coerced and seduced, so that she could talk about it, but Leng Chen still kept silent about Ruo'an, until Wanxi Niangniang's mouth was dry and she couldn't say anything anymore, Leng Chen opened her mouth: "Wanxi Niangniang's teachings, Chen'er has kept it in mind, over the years, if it weren't for your constant mention and help, there must be no Leng Chen today, your kindness, Leng Chen is unforgettable, not the love of the biological mother is better than the biological mother, Leng Chen can't ......repay it."
"Hey, I am like a sister to your mother, she left in such a hurry, you are her only son, how can this palace not take care of it...... It's just Chen'er, what you did this time is so ridiculous...... This time this palace has protected you once, but it can't protect you for the rest of your life......"
"The lesson of Wanxi Niangniang is that now that the matter has come to this, it is too late to turn back, so you can only go to the end like this......"
Seeing that Leng Chen was always reluctant to say his reasons, Wanxi Niangniang also gave up after being the last to do so, she shook her head helplessly: "That's it, since you don't want to say it, there is no point in asking this palace again...... Chen'er, do it yourself......" After speaking, he stood up and walked straight out of the study.
Leng Chen sat in the study, looking at the blank piece of wall on the wall, and fell into deep thought. The corners of Banxiang's mouth moved slightly, and he said softly: "I just want to see you, is this also wrong......"
There was nothing on the snow-white wall, but Leng Chen was so distracted, looking at the wounds, there was even a trace of tears overflowing from the corners of his eyes, but this trace of sadness was also fleeting, the children who grew up in the palace since childhood, the most clear thing is that joy and anger are invisible, and any emotions and feelings must be endured and hidden......
In fact, he wanted to let her out of the palace, but he could only stay like this...... I don't know what will happen in the future, and I don't know if this decision was correct at the beginning, in order to protect Ruo'an, the people in his palace don't say it, but also involve Wanxi Niangniang, and even Ni Ruoju's family...... In order to fulfill the lie, he could only keep lying, Leng Chen couldn't help frowning when he thought of this......
Leng Chen stayed in the study for a whole afternoon before coming out, when Ruo'an met him in the courtyard, it was already dark, Ruo'an just wanted to go up to greet him, but was stopped by Aunt Qiao'er on the side: "Don't bother Your Highness...... He's going to be in a bad mood......"
"Oh? Get up on the wrong side of the bed? What are you doing? Joan was curious.
Aunt Qiao'er shook her head: "I don't know...... It's better not to speculate on this kind of thing......"
