Chen Luo, who was worried by Wang Xi, had just returned from the palace with his mother at this time, and before he could go back to the house to change his clothes, he was left by the eldest princess to speak.

"Chen Ying's matter, didn't you really do it?" It's a pity that the first thing the eldest princess said in private was suspicion, she frowned and stared at Chen Luo, "Everyone knows that you are the only one who has vested interests in this matter." ”

Chen Luo has been living in the palace with his mother for the past few days, and he is grateful for his mother's maintenance of him before, and even feels that no matter how his mother neglected him in the past, he can forgive his mother, but this kind of thought is gone after only a few days, and he doesn't even have the mood to defend himself.

"It turns out that you haven't said it these days, but it's just because you can't spread the ugliness of your family, and it's inconvenient to ask me." He muttered, his brows full of disappointment, "You think it's me, that's me!" ”

Anyway, whether it was the emperor, his mother, or even the courtiers, they all felt that he had dug a pit for Chen Ying to jump. They don't look down on Chen Ying, but it's just because Chen Ying is stupid.

He didn't say anything anymore, respectfully saluted his mother, and said perfunctorily, "Mother has also worked hard these days, since she has returned home, let's rest early!" I also have to prepare for the eldest brother to get married", without waiting for the eldest princess to respond, he hurried out of his mother's main room.

In the early autumn night, the evening breeze was already a little cool, blowing away the heat of the day, but it could not blow away the dazed heart of Chen Luo.

As he walked, he unconsciously walked to the wall separating Lu Mingxuan from the Yongcheng Marquis Mansion.

The familiar weeping willow is still crowned like an umbrella, and half of the willow branches are scattered in the deer Mingxuan, and half are scattered in the willow shade garden.

Wang Xi has always been well-informed, Shi Zhu's matter has been several days, and he has not brought a letter to Wang Xi, she should have been in a hurry for a long time, right?

Chen Luo thought, his body was faster than his brain, and he had climbed over the wall into the Willow Garden.

At night, the willow garden, shaded by green trees and hung high with red lanterns, is peaceful and quiet.

He walked lightly to Wang Xi's residence, picked up a small pebble and knocked on Wang Xi's window.

Wang Xi yawned and pushed open the window, leaned out half of his face, and said to him sleepily: "I knew it was you!" Let me tell you, the window is embedded with Western glass, expensive are secondary, only Wenzhou side has it, with a piece of glass, back and forth to three or four months, broken is to pay. ”

Chen Luo sat on the stone bench under the grape trellis and said, "Isn't it money?" Tell you, as long as it can be solved with money, it is not a matter. ”

This sounds so familiar!

How is it exactly the same as her grandfather said?

Wang Xi had already slept a little dazed and hadn't woken up yet, and subconsciously said when he heard this: "Then you have to have money to solve it." In this world, although everything has a price, there are also some things that money can't buy. Don't be careless! ”

Chen Luo didn't come to tell her these mysterious things, he said: "I'm standing in front of you, so you don't have anything to ask me?" If you're okay, I'll go back first. ”

Wang Xi suddenly came to his senses, and while saying, "Yes, yes, yes", he lowered the window lattice and walked out of the inner room quickly.

Bai Zhi, who was on duty, had already woken up, she rubbed her eyes and said, "Miss, if you have anything to tell me, just do it." ”

Wang Xi shook his head, feeling that since it was something that happened in the palace, the less people knew about it, the better, not only did not ask her to serve, but said, "You go and rest!" I said a few words to Master Chen and came back. ”

Bai Zhi didn't want to continue to follow, Wang Xi raised the lamp and went to the kitchen with Chen Luo.

Chen Luo was confused.

The little maid on duty in the kitchen was dozing, and when she saw this, she hurriedly stood up and said, "The stove on the stove is still hot, so I'll go and call the cook." ”

Wang Xi said, "You can bring the food first." ”

There is a small dining room on the other side of the kitchen, which is usually used by the people on the stove, but at this time it is clean and tidy.

Wang Xi took Chen Luo to sit down.

The little maid skillfully served a cup of black-bone chicken ginseng gastrodia soup, a plate of gold and silver steamed buns, a plate of assorted kimchi, a plate of shredded chicken, a plate of braised pig's head meat, a plate of bad fish, and a bowl of white porridge, and then retreated.

Wang Xi said: "I don't know when you will come, so I have to ask someone to make some side dishes to prepare." You see if you want to eat it. If I don't feel like I'm having an appetite, I'll let the stove get up and light the fire again. ”

Chen Luo looked at the table full of food and didn't speak for a long time.

Wang Xi's voice became softer and softer. She said, "Don't you like it?" So do you want to eat noodles or do you want to eat? Or something to drink? ”

Chen Luo lowered his eyes, shook his head with a clear expression, and said in a low voice: "No need, this is good." As he spoke, he raised his eyelids, looked at Wang Xi's eyes full of smiles, and said, "I'm not such a picky eater, am I?" ”

It was obviously a bit of a joke, but Chen Luo said it as if he was hiding something.

Wang Xi didn't understand what he meant, touched his nose, and said with a smile: "It's okay!" Am I not afraid that you will not like it? ”

"Very good!" He replied, his voice softer than ever, "That's good." At least you remember that I like to eat your assorted kimchi. ”

Wang Xi smiled proudly and said, "This is all hospitality, people who come to my house to eat, at most twice, our servant women serving at the table must know what the guests like to eat." Therefore, our family's family banquet is famous in Shuzhong. ”

Chen Luo smiled, and thousands of thoughts surged in his chest.

But he and his parents had an unknown number of meals, and his parents might not remember what he liked to eat.

His eyes were a little moist.

He said that he should not be sad for his parents again, but he still didn't do it.

Perhaps, this is the only thing he has not said and done.

Chen Luo's heart gradually cooled down, looking at the side dishes on the table, his mood slowly became excited.

He ate half a bowl of porridge and two gold and silver steamed buns with side dishes, then put down his chopsticks, drank the soup leisurely, and said with a smile: "Okay, I accepted your bribe, I know everything, and I have no end to it." What do you want to know, you ask? ”

Wang Xi thought for a while and said with a smile: "When you didn't come, I felt that I had a lot of things to ask, but when you came, I felt that it didn't matter if you didn't ask something." Anyway, Chen Ying and Shi Zhu's marriage is already ironclad, even if the eldest princess is unwilling to give them a wedding, aren't Chen Ying's uncle and aunt still alive? He is not without elders. Maybe Chen Jue will come from Chengzhou. I just think Chen Ying is a bit stupid, why should she use her marriage as a bargaining chip. ”

You must know that no matter whether it is Chen Luo or Chen Ying, there are too many things on their backs, and if they can have a wife and children who treat them wholeheartedly, life will be much better.

Chen Ying extinguished the only flame that could make him happy.

What is the meaning of living?

However, perhaps this is the meaning of Chen Ying's life.

After all, everyone thinks differently and pursues differently.

Chen Luo looked at her, but his expression was a little strange, and said, "You really don't have anything to ask me?" Then I'm leaving! There's a lot of work to do at home! ”

Wang Xi shook his head and said, "I've been keeping people staring at Lu Mingxuan, knowing that you just came back, you definitely don't have the heart to eat." Just remember to eat well when you go back. When I was angry as a child, I often didn't eat. My grandfather advised me that if I didn't eat, I would only starve myself and not others. You also have to eat well. The people live on food. Nothing is as big as eating. ”

Chen Luo laughed.

Thinking that the little Wang Xi was out of breath and didn't eat, and was persuaded by his grandmother and had to hum and eat, his heart softened.

Wang Xi knew that this person was not considerate at all, she was worried about him, but he felt funny.

Her cheeks were bulging with anger.

Chen Luo looked at her with eyes like a piece of starlight.

He knew that she didn't know when she would return to Lu Mingxuan, and these meals were probably prepared every day, just waiting for him to come back.

Like a lamp in the darkness, telling him his way home.

The light seemed to put armor on him and hardened his heart.

He likes such hardness.

Chen Luo said: "Don't you ask me why Chen Ying married Shi Zhu?" ”

Wang Xi really didn't know, but it dragged on for too long, and she didn't want to know much.

It's a pity that Chen Luo is still ready to use this as a handle to tease her.

She glared at Chen Luo and said, "You came back too late." I've figured it out. Chang Yan said that Chen Ying could have said that it was a misunderstanding, but he swore that he liked Shi Zhu, so did the ghost believe him? It's clear what the benefits are. Shi Zhu is a candidate for the crown princess! Left and right is just suffering from gains and losses, you have fallen into your plan, I think that whether it is the second prince or the eldest prince as the prince, the emperor will make you the prince of Zhenguo, he is sick and rushed to take medicine, afraid that he will become an ordinary person from now on without the position of the prince, so he simply plotted against Shi Zhu and found a powerful wife. As a person of the Shi family, why should you plan one or two for him!

"Maybe the third prince and the fifth prince are also accomplices!

"Without their acquiescence or connivance, Chen Ying would not dare to snatch his wife from the prince!"

Speaking of this, she looked slightly stunned, thinking of Chen Luo's depressed mood when she came, she couldn't help but say: "They don't think that Shi Zhu and Chen Ying's matter was designed by you, right?" ”

Chen Luo looked at her and didn't say anything.

Wang Xi scolded in a low voice and said, "There is no reason to eat grass according to the bull's head." Even if this matter is related to you, it is up to Chen Ying to suffer by herself. If you have one point of responsibility, he himself has at least nine points. Why should you take the blame for his greed! ”

As she spoke, she stood up excitedly and said, "This matter can't be settled like this, everyone has to make it clear." Otherwise, others will think that you are calculating him! ”

Chen Luo's mood was agitated, his mind was blank, and he grabbed Wang Xi regardless of it, and said, "What can you do?" Are we going to go out into the streets and make a big noise and tell everyone that this is Chen Ying's own choice? ”

Why could she always give him the best when he thought he had gotten the best?

Does anyone really think that's not possible?!

Wang Xi glared at him angrily and said, "I don't know what to say. Although we can't go to the street to make a fuss, we have to let Shi Zhu know that this matter is not your fault - I am going to find Shi Zhu and ask the matter clearly. I have to go to those banquets everywhere, be a long-mouthed woman, and gossip about other people. ”
