Chapter 210: Blame him for being cold by nature
But in her opinion, this matter is just a trivial matter.
Su Xi nodded slightly, "Yes." ”
Lu Jue tapped the table with his right index finger, looked at Su Xi with a serious look, and asked, "Have you forgotten what I said to you before I married you into the palace?" ”
Before marrying Su Xi as a concubine, he had clearly told Su Xi that there had been too much estrangement between him and Bai Jiaojiao.
Even if Bai Jiaojiao returned to the imperial city at that time, he would not love Bai Jiaojiao anymore.
A woman who is willing to do anything to betray him in order to help his enemies, what is there to love?
There was a hint of ridicule in Lu Jue's eyes, and he felt that his princess went to find Bai Jiaojiao and asked Bai Jiaojiao to come over to see him, which was really a bit inappropriate.
Before he left the imperial city, he took Bai Jiaojiao to Jingbei County. He really wanted to talk to Bai Jiaojiao for a while, and just as she stood up and was about to leave, he said, "Jiaojiao, don't sit down for a while?" ”
Bai Jiaojiao smiled lightly, "Yes, His Royal Highness the Second Prince, I have to go back to take care of Sister Shiling." ”
He wanted to tell Bai Jiaojiao at that time that even if she went back later, it would be fine, because Su Xi would take care of Zhou Shiling. But he didn't want to say it too directly, so he said euphemistically: "I know, you have to go back to take care of Sister Shiling." Can you sit down a little longer, just sit down and have a cup of tea before leaving. When you drink this cup of tea, I'll send you over. Luckily? ”
After saying that, he looked at Bai Jiaojiao expectantly, thinking that she could agree to his request, sit down, and continue to drink tea.
In this way, it is better for him to see her more, even if it is just to see her up close, than when he misses her, she is always not by his side.
But when he looked at Bai Jiaojiao and waited for her to sit down and drink tea, he saw her smiling and shaking her head. And the smile on her face is also less sincere, in his opinion, it is a bit far-fetched to laugh.
In desperation, he had no choice but to no longer keep her, but send her back to Zhou Shiling's side.
Camp in the northern part of Xinjiang.
Lu Ying sat at a wooden table in a large cowhide tent and drank.
After coming to Northern Xinjiang, in his impression, it was on the day he followed his father to camp that some Jingjun generals toasted his father. It had been several days, and he hadn't seen the generals of the Jing army drinking.
There was no wine to drink in the camp, so he asked Su Xi to help him think of ideas. Because he knew that when Su Xi followed him to the northern frontier, he brought him some fine wine.
Su Xi did not hesitate, and quickly found him a jar of fine wine, and persuaded him softly: "If Your Highness feels depressed in your heart, the concubine is willing to accompany Your Highness to walk around the camp and listen to His Highness's thoughtful words." But in the northern frontier, it is not comparable to the imperial city, if you want to drink, you can drink. ”
"You're reluctant to give me a drink?" Lu Jue looked at Su Xi coldly and asked.
In his mind, Su Xi has always been a gentle woman. She would only agree to what he asked, and would do anything for him.
But after he married Su Xi, he just wanted to drink some wine, and Su Xi was reluctant, which was a bit excessive.
The corners of Su Xi's lips curled a bitter arc, and she explained to him in her soft-spoken voice: "Where can it be? His Royal Highness the Second Prince. The jar of wine brought by the concubine was brewed by the concubine when she followed the Yun Zhou clan in the past when she was in the land of Weiyuan. The concubine brought this jar of wine over because she wanted to wait until the day when the Jing army defeated the enemy army in Beiyuan, and celebrated with His Royal Highness! ”
He listened to Su Xi's words, and soon remembered what his father had said to him in the camp before leaving the northern frontier.
His father only said that he was the most outstanding of the many princes. As long as he is good here, in the future, everything his father has will still be his.
It's still his.
In the past, he had such an obsession, thinking that he should enter the East Palace and should become the future son of heaven. After becoming the Son of Heaven, let the mother concubine who loves him become the queen mother.
That's just what he had in mind.
Now, he has lost his mother who loves him the most, and his fifth brother who can know his thoughts and treat him like a confidant and friend.
He also has a younger sister, and after the death of his mother and fifth brother, the whole person became depressed.
He was going to fight in the northern frontier, and his sister was so scared that she didn't dare to sleep, even if his father went to hug her, she would hide behind the screen. But coincidentally, she likes to cherish it very much. Wherever Su Xi went, his sister followed.
In desperation, when he came to northern Xinjiang, he had to take Su Xi and his sister with him, so that Su Xi could take care of his sister. But who would have thought that when he went out at night to catch the fine work of the Beiyuan Kingdom, his sister was strangled to death by Shentu Qingyun, who had changed into a pity!
His mother's only daughter, a daughter who was not yet ten years old, died in the snow outside the camp after following him and Su Xi to the northern frontier.
He, who is an elder brother, can't protect his own relatives, even his little sister, he can't protect him.
In his opinion, he is indeed very cowardly.
It is only when I do it that I use wine to drown my sorrows.
In the camp of the northern frontier.
Lu Jue sat at the wooden table, and when he drank three glasses of wine and was about to pour the fourth glass, the wine glass in his hand was snatched away by Su Xi's hand. This made Lu Jue feel stunned.
How dare such a gentle person treat him like this?
He raised his eyebrows and looked at Su Xi, a hint of gloom flashed in his eyes. If she wasn't the princess he voluntarily married, and if she wasn't the senior sister he had known since childhood, he would have killed her!
"Give it to me."
Lu Jue's voice was like a thousand years of ice.
As soon as these words fell, Su Xi, who was standing opposite him, felt that the temperature in the cowhide tent had dropped a lot.
But she's not afraid.
If she was afraid of him, she would not marry him, let alone come to this camp in the northern frontier with him, and take care of him every day like a big sister.
Look at him.
Kindly persuaded him.
silently blessed him in his heart.
Su Xi raised his hand is a palm, and hit Lu Jue's hand, and Lu Ying failed to grab the wine glass.
Su Xi was in front of Lu Ting, raised his head and drank all the wine in the cup, angrily raised his hand and smashed the wine glass in his hand to Lu Yan's feet, and said: "You are a man who stands up to the sky, but you just lost a favorite woman, Bai Jiaojiao." Are you so decadent? Have you forgotten what your father told you the night before he returned to the imperial city after you came to Northern Xinjiang? ”
Lu Yu gritted his teeth faintly, what he didn't want to mention, he regretted to mention. couldn't help but say angrily: "You uninformed woman, stop me!" ”
Although he and Su Xi are husband and wife, and before he married Su Xi, he had already let go of Bai Jiaojiao. But after experiencing a lot of painful things, for a while, he really didn't have much heart to be a real husband and wife with Su Xi.
The relationship between him and Su Xi is more like a confidant and friend.
Therefore, in his eyes, Su Xi is still an innocent woman, not a woman who is too scheming.
Su Xi saw that Lu Ying didn't let her say it, so she was angry in her heart, and insisted on saying it: "Father said to you, let you live well, because you are his most beloved woman, and the most promising prince born for him." ”
She knew that His Royal Highness the Second Prince would become what he is now, and it had a lot to do with Bai Jiaojiao.
It was precisely because she knew this reason that after learning the news that Bai Jiaojiao was coming to Northern Xinjiang, she went to greet Bai Jiaojiao and invited her to sit here.
The so-called heart disease still needs heart medicine, His Royal Highness the Second Prince has paid so much for Bai Jiaojiao, and Bai Jiaojiao has also paid a lot behind his back in order to help His Royal Highness the Second Prince's enemy, Lu Yan.
Although she knew that the person Bai Jiaojiao loved was Lu Yan. But Bai Jiaojiao can't ignore the feelings of His Royal Highness the Second Prince.
His Royal Highness the Second Prince, just to let Bai Jiaojiao rest in peace of mind in the cowhide tent for one night. He could wait all night outside the cowhide tent without resting.
After Bai Jiaojiao woke up the next day, His Royal Highness the Second Prince left quietly, not telling Bai Jiaojiao how much he had paid for her.
After coming to Northern Xinjiang, His Royal Highness the Second Prince once heard Feng Wuxian say that Bai Qingyun, who was executed on the execution ground of the imperial city, was just a stand-in for Bai Qingyun before Shen Tuying died.
The real Bai Qingyun has used the disguise technique that Chu Qingyuan taught her before her death to disguise herself into an ugly woman. Before the emperor sent someone to raid Shen Tuying and their house, they escaped from the imperial city overnight.
When the soldiers sent by the emperor arrived at the mansion of Shen Tuying, they treated Yi Rong as a servant girl of Bai Qingyun and treated her as Bai Qingyun, and she was arrested and beheaded.
The real Bai Qingyun took a detour to the south, and then went north to the camp in northern Xinjiang.
After Bai Qingyun came to Northern Xinjiang, he was always looking for an opportunity to take revenge, either hiding in the dark and releasing knives at Bai Jiaojiao's father, or giving them to the entourage of Bai Jiaojiao's brother and asking them to add poison powder to Bai Jiaojiao's brother's wine.
These things were all heard by Feng Wutrace, so he told His Royal Highness the Second Prince.
His Royal Highness the Second Prince learned of the news, and within three days, he asked Bai Qingyun to meet alone, and poisoned Bai Qingyun with a scheme.
For His Royal Highness the Second Prince, during this period of time, everything he has paid silently for Bai Jiaojiao is known to him. What if you just know?
When she saw Bai Jiaojiao, she couldn't tell Bai Jiaojiao everything she knew truthfully in front of Bai Jiaojiao.
I can't tell Lu Ying what I think in my heart:
Bai Jiaojiao, whom you love, has already chosen your worst enemy. If you are still a dignified prince, you should put aside all your past and make yourself the best commander of the forbidden army, and live up to your father's expectations of you!
The camp in northern Xinjiang, in the cowhide tent where Lu Ying stayed.
After smashing the wine glass, Su Xi didn't care that Lu Yu, who had already stepped forward, and Lu Jue, who took the initiative to talk to her, left the cowhide tent directly.
She would like to see His Royal Highness the Second Prince, holding a sword to fight against the prince of the Beiyuan Kingdom, and she does not want to see His Royal Highness the Second Prince, whom she has loved for many years, become what it is now.
Seeing His Royal Highness the Second Prince so depressed, she could neither help him nor persuade him. It really made her feel anxious.
Without looking back, he walked out of the cowhide tent, went to the stable, stretched out his hand and touched the horse's back, and told the horse what was on his mind.
Lu Jue looked dazed after leaving the cowhide tent.
He didn't know what he had done wrong, so that even if he did his most trusted pity, he would leave him so ruthlessly.
But he knew very well in his heart, leaving with regret was completely different from Bai Jiaojiao's quietly leaving the camp in Jingbei County, not even saying hello to him, and going straight to Shengjun to help that wicked man.
He and Su Xi have known each other for many years, and in their hearts, they have long regarded Su Xi as their confidant and friend. Anyone can betray him, but his confidant and friend will not.
Lu Jue walked to the wooden table, leaned over and picked up the wine glass that had been smashed on the ground, silently washed it, scalded it with boiling water, and put it in a quaint small wooden box. In my heart, I said:
One day, you will take the initiative to come back to me, taste wine with me, celebrate our Jing army's victory over the thieves of the Beiyuan Kingdom, and you will be reconciled with me.
Thinking like this in his heart, Lu Jue looked at the wine glass, and a faint trace of warm light crossed it. Yes, his Su Xi will come back, because she is not Bai Jiaojiao, she is his princess.
