Chapter 395: Wen Xin's Transformation
Since Xiao Jinxuan returned to the Shuai Mansion strongly, two days have passed now.
And early this morning, Xiao Jinxuan was wearing a palace skirt, and her makeup was also very solemn, because yesterday there was news from the Rui Wang's Mansion that she was going to enter the palace today.
When the servants came in and returned, they said that King Rui's carriage was already waiting outside the palace.
Xiao Jinxuan, who had already dressed up and was waiting in the Shuai Mansion, was about to walk out.
But at this moment, suddenly a furry paw hugged her calf tightly.
When Xiao Jinxuan looked down, she found that it was the dumpling holding a bamboo shoot in one paw.
The other paw was tightly wrapped around her leg, and looked up at her with a pitiful look.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Jinxuan couldn't help but smile dumbly, now this group eats and lives with her every day, and at night it sleeps on the ground next to her ** couch, lying on a plush cushion.
And today, Xiao Jinxuan naturally couldn't go with the group when she entered the palace, so she hurriedly instructed the bamboo heart in the house:
"Take good care of it, I will enter the palace today. If I really had an accident, Zhuxin promised me to leave safely with the group and send it to Zhuluo Town, which is the hometown of the little one. There are patches of bamboo forests, and it will live very well. ”
Now that the palace is forbidden, it can be said that it is controlled by Empress Xue, and now that she and Zhou Xianrui have entered the palace, it is undoubtedly extremely dangerous.
After all, the other party has now killed even the crown prince, the prince of the Great Zhou, Xiao Jinxuan really doesn't know what Empress Xue didn't dare to do.
So Xiao Jinxuan rushed to the palace this time, putting her life and death out of the way.
Therefore, for such a dangerous thing, not only would she not take the group with her, but even Zhuxin was forcibly left in the Shuai Mansion by her.
And after listening to Xiao Jinxuan's words that were almost telling what was going on, Zhu Xin immediately knelt on the ground, and then said with tears in her eyes:
"Miss, I know that even if I say anything, you won't take me into the palace with you. But don't worry, if the young lady really can't come back, Zhuxin will send the dumplings away safely. But the red spirits can all be loyal to you, and the slaves and maids will never live alone. Therefore, Miss Wanwang must return safely, and Zhuxin is waiting for you to come back in Forsythia Courtyard. ”
Hearing Zhuxin's words, Xiao Jinxuan just nodded cautiously, signaling that she would be fine.
Then she patted the head of the dango again, and the little guy also felt the abnormality of the atmosphere.
immediately whimpered, and silently let go of Xiao Jinxuan's calves, but there was a little wetness in his eyes.
Knowing that she was staying, she had to hold back her tears, so she couldn't help but give up, and Xiao Jinxuan walked out of the Forsythia Courtyard without looking back.
And when she walked all the way to the gate of the Shuai Mansion alone, she saw the carriage of the Rui Wang's Mansion stopped in front of her.
And Zhou Xianrui was also nodding slightly at her through the open door curtain.
After bowing to Zhou Xianrui, Xiao Jinxuan was supported by the palace attendants on the side and prepared to board the carriage.
But almost as soon as he put his hand on the back of the waiter's hand on the side, Xiao Jinxuan immediately noticed a familiar feeling in surprise.
And when she looked at the father-in-law next to her, who was wearing the clothes of King Rui's mansion, quietly glanced at it, Xiao Jinxuan immediately asked with irrepressible surprise:
"Xin, why are you dressed like this, didn't you stay in Rui Wang's Mansion to recuperate, why did you come out in the clothes of an inner servant. Today is not a child's play, you hurry back to Forsythia Courtyard, I will not allow you to go with me to go into danger. ”
The so-called inner servant refers to the eunuchs who serve the royal family and the concubines and masters in the palace and the palace after purification.
Hearing Xiao Jinxuan's words, Xin immediately smiled calmly, and said in a calm tone:
"What kind of nonsense are you talking about, it is because I know that you are in danger this time, so I want to enter the palace with you even more. In the past, because of my status as a man, I always needed to avoid suspicion, so I couldn't accompany you in and out of the palace. But now it's different, I'm no different from the inner servant, and you may not know that I've worshipped the head of the Rui Palace's Yu as a master. Earnestly study the rules of the inner servant with him, and wherever you go from now on, I will definitely follow you. ”
Yu An, the chief manager of the Rui Palace, Xiao Jinxuan naturally knew that it was Concubine Liang's personal attendant who was arranged by Zhou Xianrui's side when he was young.
Later, the other party became King Rui, and Yu An was promoted to the head of the palace, and he has been doing his best to take care of Zhou Xianrui's daily life.
Hearing that Xin actually recognized the other party as a master, Xiao Jinxuan couldn't help but be silent for a while before saying cautiously:
"Xin, if this is your choice, I know that it may not be useful to stop me. But once you take on the reputation of an inner servant, you won't be able to take it off in your life. Originally, according to my meaning, I wanted to send you out of the land of right and wrong in Jingshi, and then recuperate from your injuries in peace. But I never thought that you were in the Rui Wang's Mansion, and you had already thought about how to go in the future. ”
Helping Xiao Jinxuan to board the carriage, Xin knelt on the ground, made a very standard internal salute to the other party, and then said in a firm tone:
"Jinxuan saved my mother's lives and my mother's lives when you were in the snow, and later drove out those snobbish relatives so that my mother could be buried in peace. At that time, I had already sworn at her grave that this life was yours. Therefore, although I am not a sound person now, as long as I have a breath, I will chase after you. Whoever wants to hurt you in the slightest must step over my corpse. Therefore, if you tell me to leave, Jinxuan, don't say it next time, and I will definitely not leave you. ”
Seeing Xin kneeling on the ground, with the towering inner attendant hat, Xiao Jinxuan only felt depressed in her heart, and even made it a little difficult for her to breathe.
And just when she didn't know how to reply, Zhou Xianrui, who was also sitting in the carriage, said at this time:
"Get up, we have to rush to the palace immediately. Since Jinxuan didn't say anything, you should follow Yu An first. If you still haven't changed your mind after a while, I'm sure Jinxuan will respect your choice. ”
After Zhou Xianrui spoke and persuaded Xin, the carriage also began to drive in the direction of the palace.
Looking at Xiao Jinxuan, who was sitting opposite with a frown and a rather solemn expression, Zhou Xianrui couldn't help but say with a hint of pity flashing in his eyes:
"Jinxuan, if you regret it, it's too late. Although I need to use your identity to be able to balance Empress Xue and force her to let me into the palace to meet my father. But this king also knows very well in his heart that your heart has always been on the body of Xianyu. Asking you to claim to be the king's concubine is more difficult to accept than killing you. ”
Hearing this, Xiao Jinxuan, who was still immersed in self-blame and guilt for Xin, couldn't help but glance at Zhou Xianrui with a sense of relief.
Then, after a moment of silence, her voice did not carry a trace of warmth, and said coldly:
"The prince is too worried, I'm fine. As long as I can avenge Xianyu and stop the wolf ambitions of the Prime Minister's Mansion, not to mention the name of the concubine, even if I am asked to pay this life, I Xiao Jinxuan will not frown. After all, Xianyu is no longer there, and all I can do for him is to be a real murderer. The heroic spirit who gave him and the 30,000 generals in the Beijing military camp avenged this great revenge. ”
looked at Xiao Jinxuan's scarlet eyes, and the hatred on the other party's face that couldn't be dissolved.
Zhou Xianrui only felt that his heart seemed to be crumpled into a ball, and he couldn't help but feel pain.
"Jinxuan, I know that you and Seventh Brother regard each other as more important than your own life. But do you know that once you really have a marriage contract with me, even if this matter is over, I will give you a letter of divorce and return your freedom. But you are the one who has been the concubine of this king, and no one will dare to marry you in this life. The Manifestation is gone, and you should come out of the shadows. Maybe there are still people who are suitable for you, don't seal your heart, you are still so young, don't let Fanghua waste in vain. ”
Xiao Jinxuan could hear that Zhou Xianrui's words were sincerely planning for her.
But Xiao Jinxuan, who had already made up her mind, smiled indifferently, and then said without changing her mind:
"Your Highness is not worried about me, but you should think about how we can enter the palace today. In fact, now in addition to avenging Xianyu, I am also anxious to rescue Concubine Liangniang, as well as Xiangping Xianchen and others safely. Empress Xue is in control of the palace, and in the event of a mutiny, their lives will definitely be difficult to protect. Therefore, it is inevitable that I will join forces with His Highness. Therefore, don't worry about me, as soon as Xianyu leaves, I will put life and death out of the way. As long as I can take revenge, and the current situation is safe and stable, I will not hesitate to make any sacrifices. ”
Regarding Xiao Jinxuan's temperament, Zhou Xianrui has not known her for a day or two.
After knowing that he couldn't persuade the other party, Zhou Xianrui, who has always been extremely resolute in doing things.
immediately did not dwell on the matter of the side concubine, but began to analyze the situation that the next two would face.
"Jinxuan, while these two **** let you recuperate with peace of mind, there are already many royal relatives and ministers. Now I think that the grandfather of Yunqing, Shen Mu, the sixth Shangshu of the dynasty, knelt in front of the East Dragon Gate and died in front of the saint. He is the same as the deputy prime minister, and he can't turn a blind eye to Xue Hou taking the lead. ”
Hearing this, the two of them have always cooperated with each other, and they have a tacit understanding.
Almost as soon as Zhou Xianrui's words fell, Xiao Jinxuan immediately thought about it, and continued with some understanding:
"However, Lord Shen Mu is only a courtier after all, even if Empress Xue is moved, there must be a reason to stop him outside the imperial city. And His Royal Highness only asked them to kneel on the ground today, presumably the real intention is to wait until we go to the East Dragon Gate of the Imperial City, and take advantage of the momentum of these princes and ministers to further pressure Empress Xue. asked her to stop the courtiers, but there was no reason to stop you, the prince of the Great Zhou, in front of everyone. In this way, on the grounds of being invited to marry, we can enter the palace logically. Your Highness doesn't know what Jinxuan said, but what you have in mind is right? ”
