Chapter 183: Uneasy Kindness
"How is it, are you good today, have you had a good meal?" A burst of cheerful and hearty laughter came from far to near.
"His Royal Highness!" Li Jiao put down the bowl in surprise and flew towards Bai Lisheng, who was full of spring breeze and walked towards her. "Why did you have free time to come and see me today?"
Bai Lisheng quietly stopped her a step away from him, but his mouth teased as if he had smeared honey: "I heard that you are now accustomed to this king, and you have to kneel every day before you are willing to eat." Therefore, this king has come here today to teach you a lesson! ”
Li Jiaojiao was disgusted: "How can anyone have it! It is clear that His Highness keeps asking me to eat every day, like raising pigs. ”
"Yikes! Then you really wronged the pig, the pig is not as expensive as you! Bai Lisheng said half-truthfully.
"Hah! Dislike! You even compare me to a pig, and I ignore you! ”
"Hahaha...... This king is wrong......"
Park Ying and Party A on the side also smiled and responded, but the two secretly glanced at each other.
Leaving from Li Jiao, when the three of them walked out of the secret passage, it was already noon, and the sun was very hot.
Bai Lisheng opened the fan to cover the sun, and looked back at Party A, who was already sweating profusely: "The guards here, how is the arrangement?" ”
Party A wiped his sweat: "Your Highness, rest assured, this palace is a long-abandoned cold palace from the outside, and no one can see any famous hall." And I also sent elites to guard it strictly, and I also took care of it according to His Royal Highness's orders, only saying that it was a heavy treasury, and idlers did not approach. ”
"Well, keep an eye on her for me, and don't let anything go wrong."
"Yes!"
Returning to Minghua Palace, Bai Lisheng, who took a cup of tea and drank it all, saw that Pu Ying was looking at him there again and again. "Yikes! I said, what do you have to say? "Looking at his ghostly appearance, he won't be angry.
Pu Ying licked her face and leaned in, and asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, there is something unknown about the slave maid." ”
"Say!"
"If you say that Miss Chu, Your Highness is like a jewel and a treasure, but that Miss Li ...... Didn't His Highness always think she was vulgar and looked down on her? How...... Got it? ”
Bai Lisheng knocked a fan on his head: "Is this also what you should inquire?" I have my own reasons for doing this! Go, let's see if Miss Chu's spring clothes are enough? If you don't have enough to go to the storehouse to get some clothes and send them to her. And children! ”
Park Ying shrunk her neck: "Yes, the slave will go." ”
*
On the other side of Minghua Palace, Chu Qingruo was making clothes for the children in the house, one pink and one blue. With clothes sewn in her hands, her thoughts flew to a distant homeland.
How is everyone? The current Great Yan should be about to enter summer. That night in Qingtan Village, I heard that Zhou's mother had a body, and now it was time to give birth.
I don't know how the old father who is paralyzed in bed is doing now, and whether the people in the old house take good care of him? Does my aunt still have any gambling money? If she owes debts again, I'm afraid that my father's current belongings will not be able to pay off her debts. I don't know how Donglin and Ah Ju are doing, whether the little cousin has high school, and whether the little cousin has children.
In this way, Chu Qingruo thought while sewing, even if Bai Lisheng came in, she didn't know.
"What are you thinking, thinking so distractedly?" Bai Lisheng wrapped his arms around her from behind and asked softly in her ear.
"Your Highness, don't do this." Chu Qingruo was like a frightened rabbit, holding his stomach with one hand and pushing his hand away with the other.
"Okay, be careful, child, I won't touch you." He hurriedly raised his hands, indicating that his hands were now far away from her, so that she could feel at ease.
Although he still had a warm smile on his face, his heart felt like someone had torn a big hole open, dripping with blood and painful.
She is still so resistant to herself, what should she do to return to the warm sitting opposite each other that night, and make peace with each other?
"His Royal Highness the Prince of the World is here with me today, what is the matter?" Still looking cold and indifferent, Chu Qingruo sat down in a different place and continued to sew the small clothes in his hand.
"It's okay, just to see you and the child." The lost Bai Lisheng touched his nose, feeling a little depressed.
"His Royal Highness the Prince of the World has already seen it, everything is fine with us, His Royal Highness the Prince of the World, please go back, please forgive Qingruo for being inconvenient, and I will not be far away."
"......" Bai Lisheng sighed secretly, "Then, I'll come to see you in a few days, you, have a good rest." I'll go first. ”
Bai Lisheng, who had a gray nose here in Chu Qingruo, returned to Minghua Palace dejectedly. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Party A leading the haggard Party B, both kneeling outside his bedroom.
"Your Highness." Party B bowed his head and bowed weakly.
"Well, you're here? The injuries on your body are all right, right? Bai Lisheng stood under the eaves, with his back to them.
"Thank you Your Highness for your concern, the villain is no longer in trouble."
"Then go, rest for a few days, and after a while, hunt with my father with this king."
"Yes!"
Walking into the bedroom, Park Ying hurriedly stepped forward to change his clothes: "Your Highness, have you gone to Miss Chu again?" ”
Baili Sheng was silent.
"It's not that the slave is talkative, that Miss Chu is really a bad guy. She doesn't know how much you have done for her behind her back, so that she can first raise the baby so quietly as she is now. ”
"Shut up! That's the king's business, and you can put your beak in it! Baili Sheng was furious.
Pu Ying hurriedly knelt down: "The slave maid just feels worthless for His Highness, today His Highness wants to kill the head of the slave maid, and the slave maid has to finish speaking!"
For the sake of Miss Chu, you have offended all the concubines in the backyard, do you know how dissatisfied the family forces behind those concubines are with you now?
Also, the king has hinted several times that you will deal with Miss Chu as soon as possible, and you have been pretending to be crazy and stupid, and the ministers in the court are now also disgusted with you, and even the prince of the courtyard is dissatisfied with you, do you know? ”
"That's enough, you get out of here! Get lost! If you say more, this king will kill your head right away! Believe it or not! Bai Lisheng lit up the fan and pointed it at Park Ying's throat.
Park Ying raised his head and cried loudly: "Your Highness, my Highness, have you forgotten how the old princess died?" The slave and maid don't dare to forget it for a moment, Your Highness, Your Highness! ”
"Party A, Party B!" Bai Lisheng, who was furious, called Party A and Party B, "Pull this dog out of this king!" ”
Party A and Party B glanced at each other, and without making a sound, they pulled Park Ying and walked out.
Park Young was still shouting unwillingly: "Your Highness, Your Highness!" ”
Bai Lisheng looked at the loyal Pu Ying like this, and his heart was irritable. Of course, he knows the current situation. But he still needs some time, and there is still a moment.
In fact, there is no need for Park Ying to remind him, he has already deployed everything. When the time comes, he can solve all the problems in one fell swoop.
It's just that, until this problem is solved, there are other uses for this chess piece, a vital use! So he can't let this pawn die, at least not now!
Early the next morning, Bai Lisheng, who had returned from the morning dynasty, took out an invitation card from his sleeve and threw it on the table angrily.
This invitation was quietly delivered to him by the monarch of the courtyard when he was in the next court. He opened it and saw that it was marked with the words 'Da Yan Chu Qingruo Girl'.
smashed the table in front of him with one palm, Bai Lisheng only felt that the evil fire in his heart was violently born, you are a big courtyard king, in order to keep you and your granddaughter's wealth, you actually stretched out your hand to the backyard of the Ninth Prince's Mansion!
It's just too deceitful!
"Party A!" Yang Sheng called Party A into the study, and Bai Lisheng fanned the fan hard, trying to lower the body temperature that had risen due to anger.
"The villain is here, what does His Highness command?" Party A knelt outside his bedroom in fear and replied.
"Go, go to the courtyard to report to the king, and say that Miss Chu is pregnant, and her body is not comfortable, so she can't go to the banquet!" He waved his big hand.
Party A paused: "This ......"
"What, do you have any objections?" couldn't help the green tendons on his forehead, and Bai Lisheng asked angrily.
Seeing this, Pu Ying also came over and knelt beside Party A: "Your Highness, since the courtyard has sent out an invitation, he has specified that Miss Chu is invited to the banquet. If the girl doesn't go, I'm afraid that the courtyard will not give up. If His Royal Highness insists on maintaining it like this, I am afraid that he will kill Miss Chu instead! ”
"Can't you all see that this is drunkenness, not wine? This is a Hongmen banquet, she went, will she come back? "I can't help but jump to my feet. One or two are like this to force him! Just like his mother forced to death back then.
Because of this, he is more and more unable to compromise!
If you don't like this, you will force him like this, and if the courtyard is a step further, he will take a step back, is it possible that the old guy still wants to be at the mercy of his world?
Pu Ying was almost about to cry, this courtyard monarch must not be offended, you know, this marriage, but the old princess exchanged her death with the old king!
When the old princess first arrived at the prince's mansion, she had not yet settled down, so she secretly met with the old prince for the first time.
After the meeting, in addition to catching up with the old days, the only request that the old princess put forward to the old king was to find a backer who could make him gain a firm foothold in the palace for His Royal Highness, who had just become the prince. And this backer is none other than the courtyard king.
Although Lao Wang agreed, he also put forward a condition. That is the old princess must die!
The old princess seemed to have expected such a result a long time ago, and agreed without hesitation.
Within a few days, she received a secret decree from the palace and committed suicide with a smile. After that, the old king also kept his promise and gave the beloved granddaughter of the courtyard monarch to His Royal Highness the prince.
Since then, the Ninth Prince Mansion has a large courtyard monarch as a backer, and this is how it slowly gained a foothold in the palace.
