Chapter 30: A Cold Heart

"Go to the Fang Pavilion."

"Ah, yes." Wan Quan suddenly heard it, but before he could react, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was going to Concubine Lian tonight, no wonder his face was so bad.

"The minion is going to send someone to spread the word."

"No need, just go over there." Qi Morui did not slow down the pace of his feet at all, and still walked in great strides.

Wan Quanquan is an old man beside the prince, how can he not see the prince's displeasure, forget it, let's talk less tonight, lest the prince vent his anger on himself.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived."

Lian Xuerou heard the announcement, as if in a dream, and took Caiyu's hand and asked again and again.

"Yes, Niangniang, you heard it right, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is coming." The mood of jade mining is also very excited.

"Look, is there anything wrong with me, the prince is too anxious to come, I don't have time to prepare."

"Don't worry, you're all right."

Lian Xuerou was slightly relieved at this time, and went out with Caiyu's hand, ready to welcome the arrival of His Royal Highness the Prince. Unexpectedly, before he left the palace, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came in by himself.

"The concubine Lian clan meets His Royal Highness the Prince."

"Get up!" Qi Morui looked up and down the Moon Pavilion. The vase is placed in the wrong position, and the ones in the Fangyi Hall are placed on the shelves at the door, and the soft couch is not as comfortable as the Fangyi Palace.

Even Xue Rou secretly looked at Qi Morui, last time in Zhongjing Palace, she didn't see Qi Morui's appearance clearly, so she was urged to leave. Sure enough, as rumored to say, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really outstanding. With heroic sword eyebrows, deep and slender black eyes, and angular outlines, Lian Xuerou thinks that no child of a family can compare to Qi Morui.

"The concubine didn't know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was coming in advance, and she was not prepared, so please forgive Your Highness."

"It's okay, it's just a lonely one, so I'll come."

For this side concubine of his own, Qi Morui hasn't taken a good look at her yet. Looking at it today, it's okay.

In all fairness, Lian Xuerou's appearance is already good, but compared to Mu Kexian and Xia Weiran, it is still slightly inferior, but she has always known how to avoid the lack of her appearance, and her makeup is pure, which gives people a very comfortable feeling.

"Yesterday, I went to the Moon Palace, are you dissatisfied?" Qi Morui came up and asked directly.

Although Qi Morui is very disdainful of the competition for favor in the palace, it doesn't mean that he doesn't know those methods. In contrast, he can understand women's hearts better than Mu Kexian. Last night, the lights of the Fang Pavilion were turned on all night, but I just wanted to arouse pity. Women can be a little cautious, even Mu Kexian has her own careful thoughts, but she must not touch his bottom line.

"The concubine naturally doesn't dare to have any dissatisfaction." Lian Xuerou was very surprised by Qi Morui's question, which caught her almost off guard, and immediately knelt down to show her intentions.

Qi Morui lowered his body and said to Lian Xuerou, "That's good, Lone can tolerate your careful thoughts, but if you do something out of the ordinary, don't blame Lone for being ruthless." “

"Yes, Your Highness."

"Get up!"

Seeing that Qi Morui had no intention of leaving, Lian Xuerou was very happy in her heart. Xia Weiran couldn't round the room last night, and even Xue Rou thought that she wouldn't come here tonight, but she didn't expect His Royal Highness to not only come, but also to stay overnight.

She is not like Xia Weiran, who failed to please His Royal Highness on the first night, and she must leave a good impression on His Royal Highness the Prince.

For Lian Xuerou, tonight can be said to be a fateful day, but for Mu Kexian, it can be said that seconds are like years.

"Mother, rest!" Shui Ling watched that it was getting late and late, and couldn't help but remind Mu Kexian.

"What about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" Mu Kexian didn't sleep so late, naturally to wait for Qi Morui to come back. In Mu Kexian's opinion, Qi Morui was hindered by the wedding night last night, so it was understandable to stay elsewhere. But tonight is not a special day, not to mention that Qi Morui specially coaxed himself today, and of course he will come over in the evening.

Shui Ling couldn't answer for a while, and after a long while, he struggled to speak, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has gone down to the Pick-up Pavilion, and the Pick-up Pavilion has turned off the lights." “

When Mu Kexian heard the news, she couldn't accept it for a while, and it took a while for her to recover, and she squeezed out a smile that was more ugly than bitterness, "Yes, then let's rest too!" “

Shui Ling looked at Mu Kexian worriedly, "Yes, Niangniang, that slave is waiting for you to wash." “

Mu Kexian lay on the bed, tears streaming down involuntarily.

Originally, she thought that Qi Morui did not have a round with Xia Weiran yesterday, which was a guarantee to herself, but now it seems that she is self-inflicted. got two kind words with coaxing, and he was very different from others in Qi Morui's heart. The funny thing is that when he was holding the other women in his arms, he was still waiting for him with joy in the Fangyi Palace.

Giving hope and then destroying it with your own hands hurts more than cutting it off in the first place. In that case, why did you deliberately explain to yourself this morning, it was better to start like this.

Mu Ke stroked her stomach and felt the beating life. Fortunately, there are still children, and he is with him. In the huge palace, except for children, there is nothing that truly belongs to you.

You can not live for love, but you must live for your children.

The night passed, and Mu Kexian's heart had calmed down with the arrival of a new day, but some things had quietly changed.

"Mother, it's time to get up." The water spirit whispered to the sleeping man in the curtain.

Mu Kexian slowly opened his sleeping eyes, probably because he had figured out something, he slept surprisingly well last night, and he had no dreams all night until he was woken up by Shui Ling.

I stretched a big waist before I sat up slowly.

"Niangniang slept so soundly this night!" Shui Ling looked at Mu Kexian in a good mood, and her tone was also good.

"What time is it?" Mu Kexian looked at the sunlight outside and knew that it was not early.

"It's already hour!" Shui Ling replied as he lifted the curtain on the bed.

Mu Kexian touched her stomach and stuck out her tongue, "No wonder I'm so hungry." ”

"Breakfast was already prepared, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came here during the period, and when he saw that the mother was still asleep, he left first."

Speaking of Qi Morui, Mu Kexian's heart still pinched involuntarily, but she quickly adjusted her mood, and just asked Shui Ling, "Do you have bean silk rolls for breakfast, I really want to eat that." ”

"Yes, the imperial dining room saw that the mother ate it yesterday, and I specially prepared this today."

"Hurry up and wash up, I'm so hungry!"

Shui Ling felt that after Mu Kexian woke up this morning, it was very different from before, at least from yesterday morning's state.

Yesterday, Niangniang was very sad and in a very bad mood, but this morning, not only was her mood not low, but she was surprisingly good, what is wrong. However, as a caring little maid, the mother is happy, and she is happy, no matter what side concubine she is, she will go aside.

Mu Kexian had her stomach full and pursed her lips in satisfaction.

"Niangniang, Concubine Xia asks to see you." Mu Kexian was not dissatisfied with Xia Weiran, but had some sympathy for this woman who was also hurt for love.

"Let her in!"

"The concubine body sees Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess." Xia Weiran knelt down directly.

Mu Kexian hurriedly pulled Xia Weiran up, "Side concubine, hurry up, you don't have to make this big gift!" ”

"The concubine came uninvited, and I ask my mother to forgive me."

"It's okay, I'm usually bored anyway, and you came just in time to have someone to talk to me."

Xia Weiran smiled softly, "Sure enough, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince understands the Crown Princess." ”

"Why?"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also said so, so let the concubine bother His Royal Highness the Crown Princess more."

"Really?" Mu Kexian listened, and there was not much fluctuation in his heart.

"What do you like to do when Concubine Xia is in the boudoir?"

"It's just reading a book and playing the piano."

"Speaking of playing the piano, I have several unique books left by the master here, I can lend you a look, if you are a person who loves the piano, you will definitely like it."

"Then the concubine is here, thank you."

After going back and forth, after having a common topic, Mu Kexian and Xia Weiran chatted hotly. After chatting, I found out that the two have many common hobbies, playing chess, playing the piano, reading books, etc.

"It's thanks to you that you haven't lived in the capital since you were a child, otherwise my title of the first beauty in Beijing will change hands."

"Don't say that, far away in the northwest, I have heard of the good name of Niangniang."

"That's what the rumors say about me." Mu Kexian is also very curious about the people's evaluation of herself, and she wants to know what she is like in the hearts of ordinary people.

"When I was in the northwest, I only heard that the prime minister's daughter was talented and beautiful, and when I arrived in the capital, I found that your reputation was very large. What virtuous and virtuous, beautiful as a flower, there are more. ”

After hearing this, Mu Kexian smiled with satisfaction, "What about you?" What do you think of me? ”

"When the concubine saw you for the first time yesterday, she had only one thought, and the rumors were extremely true."

"The first time I looked at you seriously, I also had this thought, the daughter of General Zhenyuan, she really has a bit of a look." Mu Kexian paused and said, "In my opinion, a woman like you shouldn't compromise easily, so let's enter the palace!" ”

Xia Weiran was silent for a while before she spoke, "Because the person I love is no longer there, where I will live in the future, there is no difference between me and me, and there is nothing bad about entering the palace, not to mention the marriage of the Holy Decree." ”

"Do you love that guy very much?"

"I love it!" Xia Weiran had a happy smile on her face, probably mentioning the reaction of her beloved, "Everything I have about love is given by him, he taught me to ride a horse, shoot arrows, hunt for me, and tease my heart." ”

"It's a pity that he's gone." Xia Weiran's voice lowered.

"The day before he went out to fight, he was lying on the wall of the general's mansion, saying that if he won the battle this time, he would go to his father and propose to marry me, but he never came back, and he broke his promise."

Mu Kexian shook Xia Weiran's hand, as if to give her strength.

"I'm sorry to bring up your sadness." Mu Kexian provoked this topic by herself, which made Xia Weiran cry, which was very uncomfortable.

"It's okay, I can't say these words to anyone, but my mother gave me the opportunity to talk to people."
