Chapter 148: Inference

Wei Jin left the Qianyuan Hall in despair.

After returning to the East Palace, Wei Jin came to the study, picked up the jade pen on the table, dipped it in ink, and wrote a line of words on rice paper. Soon, however, Wei Jin crumpled the paper.

The palace attendants in the study all held their breath and didn't even dare to make a sound.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the Crown Princess has returned to the palace." A small eunuch outside the door hurried in and fell to one knee on the ground.

The wound on Wei Jin's forehead ached faintly, and he found that he didn't want to see Chen Rong at all now.

"If the crown princess wants to see Lone, she will say that Lone is not there." If my cousin hadn't done this, now Xie Yanhe would have already made a family relationship with the Gu family, and today's situation would not have happened.

The little eunuch kneeling on the ground was stunned. The crown princess has not returned for a long time, and His Royal Highness the crown prince still looks like he is sitting on the edge just now, why is it that now that the crown princess is back, His Royal Highness doesn't want to see his mother?

The little eunuch was suspicious but didn't dare to show it, so he quickly responded respectfully: "Yes" and retreated on his own.

Wei Jin looked at the empty study with a confused gaze, and his handsome and gentle eyebrows gradually appeared with a thick bitterness.

Wei Jin didn't understand how he had come to this point with his father. But he realized with great calm and despair that he was now standing on the edge of a cliff, and that one mistake would be shattered. In the future, he must take every step of the way and be the prince that his father expects, only in this way can he regain his father's heart.

Wei Jin didn't think about it for long. There was a commotion outside the study, and Wei Jin was just about to open his mouth to reprimand, when he saw Chen Rong break into the study with a cloak.

"Cousin, cousin, I don't want to live anymore." The woman's voice was mournful and lingering, as if it tugged at Wei Jin's heartstrings.

Wei Jin's eyebrows twisted slightly, he raised his head, and after meeting Chen Rong's red and swollen cheeks, the little anger accumulated in his heart instantly dissipated.

"What's going on? How did you get your face like this? ”

Although Chen Rong is a superb beauty, it is true that she is now scattered with green silk, half of her snow skin is high and swollen, and her pair of apricot eyes are even more swollen into peaches, where is there still the glamorous and delicate appearance in the past.

But in Wei Jin's eyes, not only did he not dislike it, but he was full of distress. I have to say that Wei Jin is also true love for Chen Rong.

Chen Rong was extremely aggrieved, and tears kept sliding down her cheeks like beads with broken threads. She thought of the confusion and panic when she was stopped by the guards just now, and her eyes were sad and resentful: "Why did my cousin tell the palace people that you were not there?" Are you tired of me, cousin? ”

Chen Rong is really sad. She suffered a great grievance in Chengenbo Mansion, and she thought that her husband would support her. But after coming back, the palace people told themselves that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was not in the East Palace.

As soon as Chen Rong heard it, she knew that the palace people were lying, and her cousin was smashed out of a bloody hole on her father's head, with her cousin's self-esteem and arrogance, how could she be willing to go out with her wounds.

Sure enough, Chen Rong just asked a few words, and the palace people spit out, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was in the study, but he didn't want to see him, the crown princess.

Chen Rong couldn't say what it was like to feel in her heart at that time, it was like being surrounded by cold, her limbs were cold, and it was like being slapped by someone closest to her, such a sharp pain was incomparable to outsiders.

Is it because the crown princess doesn't even have a decent mother's family, that my cousin will change his attitude? Yes, in the current capital, the Chen family only has Cheng Enbo Mansion.

"I see, even my cousin doesn't want me anymore." Looking at Wei Jin, who had been silent, Chen Rong showed a miserable smile on her face, her feet were weak, she took two steps back, and a pair of beautiful eyes lost their lustre, like an empty bronze mirror.

"Rong'er, that's not what I meant. I'm just a little messed up. ”

The sad look on Chen Rong's face was like a little milk dog abandoned by its owner, knowing that a terrible storm was coming, but she didn't know how to dodge, so she could only curl up helplessly with her body.

Wei Jin felt a pain in his heart, and hurriedly hugged Chen Rong in his arms.

He said affectionately: "Rong'er, no matter when, I will not leave you." I am your dearest person in the world. ”

With a warm embrace on his side and the cold aroma of cedar on the tip of his nose, everything is so familiar and so unfamiliar. Chen Rong's eyes were stunned, and she chuckled for a while. She said in amazement: "Before I went to Bofu, I was still arguing with my cousin over the selection of the side concubine, I was so stupid......"

Hearing this, Wei Jin's heart was weak for a while, and the arm holding Chen Rong's waist subconsciously loosened. Wei Jin didn't dare to let his wife know that he had promised his father that he would take a concubine in a few days.

"Cousin, you know what? Today, Xie Yanhe accidentally soiled his dress and left the table halfway to change his clothes in the guest room. As a result, in front of everyone's eyes, His Majesty came out of the guest room directly with Xie Yanhe in his arms. I'm afraid that it won't be long before Xie Yanhe will enter the palace. ”

Chen Rong still has a sense of unreality in her heart when she talks about this now. His Majesty has not had the mind to choose a concubine for so many years, and Princess Fuqing is just a married princess, Chen Rong has always thought that the palace power will return to her hands sooner or later. Now there is suddenly more Xie Yan and this variable.

Why Xie Yanhe? Why is it Xie Yanhe. Chen Rong can accept anyone as His Majesty's concubine, even if it is the granddaughter of Zhang Xiang or Wang Xiang, even if it is just a palace maid!

His Majesty did this, obviously putting his cousin and his own face on the ground.

"I already know about it." Wei Jin said with some difficulty. Even though Rong'er is both his cousin and his wife, Wei Jin still doesn't want her to know how incompetent and failed he, the prince, is.

"Cousin, you already know?" Chen Rong looked surprised, she said in a lost voice: "But that person obviously said that Xie Yanhe is going to enter the East Palace!" ”

"Rong'er, you've been taken advantage of." Wei Jin sighed lowly, looking at Chen Rong's eyes full of love and pity, and a trace of helplessness. My cousin is good at everything, but she's too naΓ―ve. I also blame myself for protecting my cousin too well.

But in the future, Donggong will never be as calm as it is now, and he should let go and let his cousin learn to be sensible.

Wei Jin had a headache when he thought about it. If he can have an heir with his cousin, even if it is a small county lord, his father will not press him step by step.

"Cousin, don't we do anything and just watch Xie Yanhe enter the palace like this? But Rong'er was unwilling! Rong'er felt aggrieved for her cousin. ”

Chen Rong's two glutinous rice teeth tightly clasped her lip flap, leaving two shallow tooth marks on her red and tender lips.

"Cousin, how can Your Majesty do this to you?" Chen Rong said sadly, even her voice was choked.

"Rong'er, this matter is a foregone conclusion. If I do anything about this, my father will not let me go. Wei Jin smiled wryly. How can you be willing! But what if you are unwilling! Even Zhang Desong can see that his father is the king, and he is the minister. First the monarch and minister, then the father and son!

Chen Rong's long eyelashes trembled, the dark light under her eyes flashed, and she said as if she was crying: "No wonder Princess Fuqing will commit a crime today and do something to me, the imperial sister-in-law, it turns out that she has already found a helper." ”

Chen Rong knew best what kind of way to poke Wei Jin's lung tube.

Sure enough, Wei Jin's eyes sank, his face was like a crown of jade, and his fingers gently stroked Chen Rong's swollen half of his cheeks, and said regretfully: "It was Fuqing who beat you?" ”

Chen Rong suddenly "hissed", and hurriedly avoided Wei Jin's fingers, she bit her lip, and said in a low voice: "You just heard it wrong, it was I who accidentally fell." ”

"Fool, can you fall out of five fingerprints?" Wei Jin was angry, and he was reluctant to get angry at his wife, so he couldn't help but say hatefully: "You are a nest, how good you usually are against me." If Fuqing beats you, won't you fight back? ”

Her half-sister is arrogant and domineering, and she has been impeached many times by the imperial history, but it is the father and the emperor who spoiled this daughter, so that she has never taken Rong'er, the eldest sister-in-law, in her eyes.

"Rong'er, it's me who is incompetent. But don't worry, one day, I will avenge you! Wei Jin was secretly ruthless, and his heart was completely wiped out of the only bit of brother-sister friendship that Princess Fuqing had!

Although he knew that with His Majesty's pressure, his cousin couldn't move Wei Wan's slut for the time being, but his cousin's attitude of knowing that he had been wronged but still had to let himself endure it still hurt Chen Rong very much.

But Chen Rong also clearly knows that she no longer has the support of her father and brother. If you lose your cousin again, you will have nothing.

Chen Rong suppressed the sourness in her heart, the corners of her lips moved slightly, revealing a bright smile, she said softly: "Cousin, Rong'er is waiting for the day when you are angry for me." ”

Wei Jin didn't see that his wife was forcing a smile, he was moved in his heart, and hurriedly hugged Chen Rong in his arms, and whispered with two lips to Chen Rong's ear: "Rong'er, you are so good." ”

……

Instructed the palace maid to fetch jade and muscle ointment, Wei Jin dug off a piece with his fingernail, blurred it on the top of his fingertips, and rubbed it on Chen Rong's swollen cheeks little by little.

Wei Jin had never done the meticulous work of serving people, and although his movements had been very light, Chen Rong's face still felt a hot pain.

finally survived the process of Wei Jin giving himself medicine, and Chen Rong hurriedly sent Wei Jin out under the pretext of being sleepy.

After Wei Jin left, Chen Rong hurriedly called Mama Chen: "Mama, where is the green lotus?" Why haven't you seen her lately? Isn't it where to hide again? Chen Rong frowned and said with an unhappy expression.

This green lotus is getting more and more out of proportion! Relying on his own pampering, he is not even careful when he is on an errand.

Although Mama Chen knew that the matter of the green lotus could not be hidden from the crown princess for a lifetime, but looking at the princess's unswollen cheeks, as well as the irritability and sorrow that always lingered between her eyebrows and eyes, Mama Chen's heart was sour, and she smiled forcefully: "Back to the mother, it is not good to be a slave." The green lotus was infected with a cold some time ago, and it has not been seen well intermittently. In case she gave the nobleman a bad time, the slave maid took matters into her own hands, and moved her to a vacant side hall in the East Palace to recuperate. When the green lotus is cured, let her come to you on an errand. ”

"Green Lotus is sick?" Chen Rong was stunned. She was grounded in the East Palace by His Majesty during this time, and she consciously lost face, and she was always angry for no reason, and she didn't even know that Green Lotus was sick.

Chen Rong still has a lot of feelings for Lu He, a capable henchman, and she can't help but feel a little worried in her expression: "I said that even the taste of this almond tea has changed in the past few days." Lu He is not there, these palace people are clumsy, and they don't know when her condition will improve. ”

When Chen Rong said this, she asked with a concerned face: "Mama, have you invited a doctor to take a look at Luhe?" Just take my pair of cards, the hospital won't even give me this face. ”

Mama Chen's heart was extremely sour. Although the crown princess has a bad temper and strict rules, she is very good to those around them. Green Lotus, a dead girl, is not satisfied, and he is a traitor! It's not a pity to die!

Mama Chen suppressed the sourness in her heart and said softly: "Don't worry, the slave has already helped Lu He hire a doctor." The foundation of the green lotus is good, and it is not a big problem, and it will be completely fine if there is another half a month. ”

"That's good." Chen Rong nodded, glanced around the hall, and said to everyone, "You all go down." ”

When the palace mermaid exited the dormitory, Chen Rong's face changed a few times.

Mama Chen is her own nursing mother, and she is a person who is closer to her than her biological mother, although Chen Rong felt embarrassed, she still told Mama Chen in detail what happened in Chengenbo Mansion today.

At the end, Chen Rong retracted her long eyelashes, her eyes drooped slightly, and she said very self-reproachfully: "Mama, it's all my uselessness as the master, that will affect mica and euonymus." Now, both of them have fallen into the hands of Jiang Liuqu, the deputy commander of the palace guard, and if they want to come back with all their beards and tails, I'm afraid they can't. ”

"Mama ......" Chen Rong raised her eyes slightly, and was about to ask for an idea from Mama Chen. However, just as she was about to speak, after her eyes met Mama Chen, she was startled by Mama Chen's gloomy and terrifying face.

Chen Rong hurriedly shook Mama Chen's arm and said anxiously, "Mama, what's wrong with you?" ”

Mama Chen's chest was full of anger, and she almost blew up her lungs!

She looked hateful in her eyes, gritted her teeth, and said, "Niangniang, this dog is a dog, he betrayed you!" The slave knows that these eunuchs who lack the roots of their children and grandchildren will not have a good thing! He deserves to be cut off by this group of eunuchs! ”

In Mama Chen's heart, she has long had a grudge against Feng Hui and Feng Ying in front of His Majesty, and Zhang Desong in front of the prince, but now with the Euonymus, she immediately hated all the eunuchs.

"Mama, I don't understand what you mean." Chen Rong confused Mama Chen's attitude.

Euonymus is obviously taking the blame for himself, the crown princess. In the past, I never liked him to be slippery, but I didn't expect that "the wind knows the strength of the grass, and the board knows the loyal ministers", but this euonymus is a loyal, how did he get into the mouth of his grandmother, but he became a traitor.

"Mother, don't be confused!" Mama Chen was in a hurry, and there was a hint of arrogance in her words.

However, after seeing Chen Rong's two wrinkled willow eyebrows, Mama Chen realized that she had said the wrong thing. She hurriedly asked Chen Rong for her guilt: "Niangniang, the slave maid lost her words, please forgive her sins." ”

Chen Rong's eyebrows were slightly relaxed, and she said lightly: "I know that Mama is for my good." She doesn't have such a small amount of energy, but she is not satisfied that Mama Chen still treats herself as an ignorant child.

"Mama didn't know what was going on. The Jiang Yi people are a good lady, but they are good at ventriloquism, and they imitate the voices of euonymus and mica vividly, and the two of them confessed their guilt in desperation. ”

Mama Chen was as easy to deceive as the crown princess, and she said in a deep voice: "Niangniang, if Weimao is really loyal, she should be convinced that Miss Jiang is falsely accused." Your dignified princess, why do you have trouble with the daughter of a foreign minister of the county lord of Yonghe? It is clear that the county lord of Nayong and the county has done ugly things by himself and left a handle. Otherwise, how could she even have to testify against her cousin?! As for Miss Jiang's family, maybe she also has something to do with that adulterer, so she will come up with all kinds of excuses to exonerate the county lord of Yonghe. ”

Jiang Yiren's remarks are only one-sided, and they are not credible. With the cleverness of the euonymus, he should have beaten a rake and dragged the Jiangyi people into the water at that time. At that time, the passive side will be the Jiangyi people.

But this euonymus is good, Jiang Yiren just learned the voice of him and mica, and the euonymus quickly confessed, and took all the blame on himself, obviously trying to cover up, now, everyone probably thinks that the crown princess Niangniang is unscrupulous in order to frame the county lord of Yonghe!

"But Mama, Jiang Yi is Zhang Fuming's granddaughter, and she jumped into the river just to frame me?" Chen Rong bit her lip and said in a low voice: "I ordered the mica to create a little mess so that Chen Qiang could be lured away, so that it would be convenient for the adulterer to have a private meeting with Xie Yan." Maybe the mica recognized the wrong person. ”

"Niangniang, the person who fell into the water today was personally arranged by the slave maid, and he showed the portrait to the mica in advance, and the mica will never be mistaken."

Mama Chen's face was solemn.

"Although the slave doesn't know the reason why the Jiang Yi people framed you, the dialogue between the euonymus and the mica, it is easy for the Jiang Yi people to imitate. As long as she heard the sound of euonymus and mica beforehand, and made up a few more random sentences by herself, many people would believe it. But Niangniang, if you think about it carefully, before Jiang Yiren cried and ran over to complain, Euonymus and Mica said that they had not spoken. ”

"This ......" Chen Rong really couldn't remember, but before she entered the Chengenbo Mansion, she sent the euonymus into the mansion to report, and the Jiang Yi people must have heard the sound of the euonymus. As for mica......

"Mama, I see! The mica did push the person into the pond according to the plan, but this scene happened to be seen by the Jiang Yi people. Jiang Yiren waited until Chen Qiang rescued the young lady ashore, and jumped into the pond himself, in order to frame me! ”

"That's probably what the mother said."

Although the crown princess's reaction was slower, and the current situation could not be reversed, Mama Chen still felt a little relieved in her heart. Niangniang has experienced too few things, and she will naturally get better in the future.
