Chapter 60: The King's Woman
After receiving Mu Beichen's cold eyes during the day, he finally learned chess skills and barely made a living.
Maybe Mu Beichen was tired of Rong Ruo's sneezing, and Kai En allowed Rong Ruo not to come and play chess at night.
However, when Rong Ruo dragged his exhausted body and prepared to go back.
Mu Beichen said in a cool voice: "This king said that this chess cannot be taught in vain. ”
"Huh?"
"This king's Yilan Garden doesn't like others to come in, starting tomorrow, it's up to you to clean it."
"Me, me, me?" Rong Ruo pointed to his nose and couldn't believe it.
"Need this king repeat it again?"
“……”
Rong Ruo was wronged, did she let her teach? Yes? She can't develop Mu Beichen's arrogant and arrogant temperament, no one in her eyes, and talking to herself, she wants to resist.
"In addition to those pots of orchids, if one pot of flowers dies, this king will ask you to compensate 10,000 taels of silver, and if all of them die, this king will want your life."
"Huh?" Rong Ruo wanted to cry without tears: "Lord Wang, can I just clean and not raise flowers." ”
"I can't." This is a command, not a consultation.
That night, Rong Ruo, who was lying on the bed, had a nightmare, in which the orchid leaves fluttered in front of her, and suddenly turned into copper coins again, falling down like rain, and her head was bleeding.
When he woke up from the dream, Rong Ruo got up and shouted, "Mu Beichen, you super big bastard!" ”
When I got up in the morning, Rong Ruo stood up and felt my feet on the cotton.
"Miss, are you up, how are you getting along with the prince in the past two days?" Banxia ran in with a grin.
Rong Ruo's face darkened: "Don't mention Mu Beichen to me!" ”
Banxia opened her mouth wide, could it be that she didn't get along, she couldn't, Miss didn't come back the night before yesterday for a night, aren't the two already there?
"Banxia, you hold me up, so the land is spinning?" Rong Ruo shook his body and grabbed Banxia's arm.
After Banxia held it, she found that Rong Ruo's face was abnormal, and she touched it: "Oh, Miss, you're so hot!" ”
Rong Ruo continued to lie on the bed, waiting for Banxia to bring the medicine.
In a daze, the door was opened, Rong Ruo got up with his hands propped up, and shook his head: "Banxia, pour me a glass of water." ”
A cup was handed over, Rong Ruo drank it in one gulp, his throat felt a little better, he raised his head, and suddenly said in surprise: "Why are you?" ”
"Miss Rong, I heard that you are sick, so I naturally want to come and visit." Ouyang Xiyue stood in front of the window with an indifferent expression.
Rong Ruo leaned back on the bed: "Oh, thank you, I've read it, please go back." ”
Ouyang Xiyue took the bowl in Rong Ruo's hand and hooked the corners of her mouth: "Miss Rong doesn't need to be polite, this is called courtesy." ”
Rong Ruo narrowed his eyes, how could there be so much wrong with this sentence in his ears.
"Since Miss Rong is okay now, I'll step back first, if Miss Rong needs anything, please do not hesitate." Ouyang Xiyue put the bowl in the tray on the table, picked up the plate and opened the door to go out.
After a while, when Rong Ruo felt a pain in her abdomen, she finally understood what Ouyang Xiyue meant by that courtesy.
On this day, Rong Ruo pulled and vomited and was dizzy, which can be described as quite exciting.
When the effect of the medicine in her stomach came into play, she collapsed on the bed and rubbed her stomach: "Ouyang Xiyue, this Liangzi, the two of us have made a decision!" ”
Banxia came over with a bowl of shredded chicken porridge, and her big eyes were full of worry: "Miss, are you better?" ”
Rong Ruo lifted his upper eyelids without much strength and exhaled: "I can't die." ”
"Miss, this Ouyang Xiyue is really too much!" Banxia was indignant.
Rong Ruo's stomach was empty, and he was already hungry, so he took the porridge from Banxia's hand and snorted and ate half a bowl in one breath.
A bowl of porridge was eaten quickly, and Banxia took warm water for her to drink.
"You still said, if you hadn't said nonsense, could I have gotten sick and made a loophole for Ouyang Xiyue?" Rong Ruo concluded that the reason why this is the case is completely the reason why Banxia asked Mu Beichen to teach him to play chess, and then blew the wind and caught a cold.
Banxia flattened his mouth, and lowered his head a little unreasonably: "I'm also for the good of Miss." ”
Rong Ruo waved her hand and motioned for her to stop talking.
After noon, someone came over to ask Rong Ruo to go to Yilan Garden, Rong Ruo's high fever had just subsided, and his body was still a little weak.
The subordinates of King Jing's Mansion looked at each other like Mu Beichen, bowed, and seemed polite but not very respectful: "The prince said, as long as there is still a breath, you must pass." ”
Rong Ruo took a deep breath before he could suppress his heart of wanting to hammer Mu Beichen to death with a hammer.
"Don't go!" Rong Ruo twisted his body, lay down again, and pretended to be dead.
The subordinate didn't say anything and went out directly.
Rong Ruo glanced out, closed his eyes, and slept.
After a stick of incense, Rong Ruogang was a little sleepy, and the whole person suddenly fell into vain, and opened his eyes: "Ah-"
The three tall palace guards directly carried her out with the quilt.
"Bastard, Mu Beichen, you're still not human!"

Yi Lan Yuan
Rong Ruo tugged at the quilt and curled up on the Taishi chair, her beautiful eyes angrily scolding someone who was leisurely opposite.
Mu Beichen elegantly picked up a chess piece and put it on the chessboard, without looking at Rong Ruo: "If you win this king, I will allow you to go back." ”
Rong Ruo crossed his legs and smiled: "Lord Wang, your old chess skills are amazing, superb, and at the peak, which is really beyond the reach of our rats." ”
"This king is very old?"
"Ahem......" Rong Ruo choked on his saliva, Mu Beichen didn't grasp the key point correctly, and hurriedly piled up a smirk: "Not old, Lord Wang, you are in your prime, handsome and chic, and the monarch is unparalleled." ”
Mu Beichen raised a finger against his graceful curved jaw, his black eyes rose slightly, and he said indifferently: "This king heard that you are sick?" ”
Rong Ruo supported her forehead, and I heard that she said it yesterday if it was okay or not.
"Come in." Mu Beichen's tone was not heavy, but it was very cold and hard.
Rong Ruozheng wondered where there was someone, so he heard the sound of the door opening.
Ouyang Xiyue stepped in, and when she raised her eyes and saw Rong Ruo's appearance with the quilt rolled, a flash of surprise flashed in her eyes, as if she had misunderstood something.
Rong Ruo is sick at this time, and his posture is not very elegant, and his delicate little face is pale, but he has a weak sense of beauty, which is pitiful.
"Lord Wang." Ouyang Xiyue lowered her eyes, and her expression returned to normal.
Mu Beichen played with the chess pieces in his hand and said lightly: "Apologize." ”
Ouyang Xiyue clasped her hands in front of her, and when she heard this, her fingers tightened, and in Rong Ruo's face full of surprise, she bowed: "Miss Rong, please forgive me for today's incident." ”
Rong Ruo's dark eyes turned, oh, the relationship is that Mu Beichen already knows about her drugging herself. Although he was curious about how Mu Beichen knew so quickly, he then realized that this was his palace, and nothing in the mansion could escape his eyes.
For a moment, Rong Ruo couldn't say what it felt, he was always a little uncomfortable and frightened, this man was even more terrifying than he imagined.
"What if I don't forgive?" Rong Ruo dragged the quilt with both hands, leaned on the armrest of the Taishi chair, and said with a smile.
Ouyang Xiyue was stunned for a moment, obviously she didn't expect Rong Ruo to be so faceless, she frowned: "Miss Rong, what do you want?" ”
Rong Ruo pursed her lips, she was a little strange, this Ouyang Xiyue's temperament and style didn't look like an ordinary steward at all, especially the arrogance between the eyebrows, which was not something that ordinary people could cultivate.
"So be it." Rong Ruo's dark eyes flashed with a hint of urgency: "You help me play a game of chess with the prince, if you win, forget about today's matter, if you lose......"
Rong Ruo didn't finish speaking, Mu Beichen said coldly: "Then you will be punished." ”
"Hey!" Rong Ruo kicked the table: "Mu Beichen, can you not be so stingy." ”
Although she was a bit opportunistic like this, if he didn't ask Ouyang Xiyue to apologize, then of course she could choose to punish her.
"The king didn't agree."
"Stingy!"
Ouyang Xiyue stood aside, watching the conversation between the two, her eyes fluctuating, and her eyebrows twisted.
Rong Ruo sniffed, rolled up the quilt and twisted his body, turning his back to Mu Beichen and Ouyang Xiyue.
"Ouyang, how long have you been in the palace?" Mu Beichen threw the chess pieces back into the chess jar, and when he leaned back, his dark eyes sank.
Ouyang Xiyue understood any emotions of Mu Beichen, and knowing this kind of expression meant that he was already unhappy.
Ouyang Xiyue's jawline tightened, and she clenched her fists: "Three years." ”
"You should know the king's temper."
"Yes."
"Rong Ruo is now the woman of this king, you poisoned her water today, are you too bold?" Mu Beichen's voice was low, and his tone did not fluctuate, but it was cold enough.
Ouyang Xiyue was shocked in her heart, and knelt on the ground: "Lord Wang......" His voice trembled.
Rong Ruo's curled up body trembled, what is it, the woman of this king...... Mu Beichen said that she should not be so domineering and cool, her face turned red, and she could only continue to hide in the quilt.
Mu Beichen's right hand was placed on the arm of the chair, his slender and good-looking fingers tapped lightly, and his dark eyes flashed with a cold winter-like ice blade: "Ouyang, for your father's sake, I will spare your life, and from today onwards, get out of the Jingwang Mansion." ”
"Don't!" Ouyang Xiyue exclaimed: "Lord Wang, you can punish me as much as you want, please don't let me leave the palace." ”
Rong Ruo twisted her body and turned around inconveniently, just in time to see Ouyang Xiyue's mean flat face cracked, full of panic and fear, and her eyes even gathered mist, as if she was about to cry.
However, from the bottom of that resentful eye, I saw the deep feelings, if it weren't for her emotions out of control at this moment, Rong Ruo would definitely not be able to find out.
"Lord Wang, you promised me to let me stay in the palace for five years, but now the time has not yet come, and I can't leave."
Rong Ruo pinched his chin, hearing this, could it be that there was some agreement between Ouyang Xiyue and Mu Beichen?
"Rongruo, you decide." Mu Beichen suddenly threw the words to her.
"Huh?" Rong Ruo almost had an illusion, as if he was really Mu Beichen's new favorite.
Ouyang Xiyue was not ambiguous, and slammed her head directly at Rong Ruo, and when she lifted it, her white forehead was red and swollen.
"Miss Rong, please punish you." Ouyang Xiyue has a pair of Danfeng eyes, which are very majestic on weekdays, but at this moment, the eyelashes are half covered, and her eyes are drooping, and she can't see the expression inside.
