Chapter 22: The Beginning of Planning (3)
Zhou Hou just came out of Banying Palace, and saw Gongzi Creek in front of Banying Palace.
As long as she sees Gongzixi, Zhou Hou can think of Gongzixi's real biological mother, the hateful woman Xu Hou.
"The Queen Mother." Childe Creek made a road.
Zhou Hou sat on the sedan chair, condescending. She glanced at Gongzixi with slanted eyes, and raised her head proudly.
"What's the matter, now I feel that my wings are stiff, and I have forgotten the etiquette?"
Zhou Hou sat on the sedan chair, just smiling proudly and no longer speaking.
"Erchen doesn't dare." Gongzixi knelt on the ground, touched the ground with his hands, and bowed respectfully to Zhou Hou.
Zhou Hou didn't let him get up, and continued to ask, "What are you doing in Banying Palace?" ”
"Naturally, I came to visit the eldest brother......
"Come on! This palace knows that you have always been close to Gongzi Yu, but now you were kicked away by Gongzi Yu, so you rushed to treat Zizhi? ”
Since Zhou Hou heard about Gongzixi's recent actions, he has become even more wary of him.
"Gongzixi, don't think that you pretend to be so high-spirited, you can't fool this palace!" Zhou Hou smiled contemptuously.
Gongzixi didn't want to clash head-on with Zhou Hou, and said: "Erchen knows that his status is low, and he doesn't dare to compete with the eldest brother, and now Erchen is just helping the eldest brother consolidate his position." ”
"Low status? It's good that you know! ”
Zhou Hou was just about to let the palace people carrying the sedan chair set off, and suddenly thought of something.
"Although you understand some things, you have to keep your mouth shut. Zizhi is the only eldest son of my Dongyan. Don't dream about what you shouldn't have! ”
It seems that Zhou Hou knows her true identity.
No, that's not true......
Ni Wuyin is now in Qinghua Palace, just watering the flowers in the palace every day, and going to the imperial dining room to see if the ingredients are ready......
It's just some of the chores.
Now Gongzi Yu is depressed about Gongzi Creek every day, and she naturally can't do anything that upsets Gongzi Yu. Including, during this time, Ni Wuyin could not appear in front of Gongzi Yu.
"What have you been up to lately?"
Suddenly, one day, Gongzi Yu found Ni Wuyin and asked.
"Hmm...... It's nothing, but I just feel that His Highness doesn't seem to have anything to do with his subordinates, so his subordinates didn't bother His Highness. ”
Ni Wuyin said for a long time. Gongzi Yu frowned and said, "If you feel that you are afraid of upsetting this son, then you don't have to do it. If you just don't want to see this son, that's normal. ”
Ni Wuyin was a little nervous, and kept rubbing the corners of her clothes with her hands.
"Your Highness, no matter what you do, you have your own ideas and reasons. As a spy who you personally mentioned, your subordinates will naturally not question Your Highness. ”
Gongzi Yu listened to Ni Wuyin's words, and his heart was also relieved. Although he didn't know whether Ni Wuyin's words were sincere.
Gongzi Yugang wanted to continue to say something, but Fang Xian came over at this time and reported: "Your Highness, the Second Highness has come down." ”
Gongzi Yu was a little ecstatic when he heard this. Ni Wuyin noticed that Gongzi Yu's eyes seemed to be shining.
"Hurry up and let the Second Highness wait in the main hall!"
Gongzi Yu said, and hurried to the main hall.
Ni Wuyin stood in place, looking at Gongzi Yu's back.
Gongzi Yu actually cares so much about Gongzi Creek. He doesn't want to be as hateful as everyone says!
After Gongzi Yu arrived at the main hall, he hurriedly made an apology. "I've kept Brother Erwang waiting."
Gongzixi still shook his head gently. After some twists and turns, Gongzi Creek still looks like the wind, and it is smooth and clear. It seems to be ...... with before It's not that different.
If Ziyu said so, it would be out of sight. Ziyu and I are brothers, so how can I care about these little things. ”
Seeing that Gongzixi had been smiling gently, Gongziyu was also relieved. It seems that Gongzi Yu still thinks too much about himself. There is not so much estrangement between him and Gongzixi.
Gongzixi made a special trip to Qinghua Palace this time, obviously wanting to reconcile with Gongziyu. Since Gongzixi did not mention the events of the day again, Gongziyu naturally did not mention it again.
"I haven't been here to play chess in Ziyu for a few days. Why don't you and my brother have another fight today? ”
For Gongzixi's proposal, Gongziyu gladly accepted. After he ordered the chessboard to be arranged, he waved his hand, and the two of them sat on either side of the board.
While playing chess, Gongziyu asked some things about Gongzixi's wedding.
"Seeing that the second brother can marry the person he wants, Ziyu is very happy in his heart."
Hearing Gongziyu say this, Gongzixi thought of the camellia guest for no reason.
But he couldn't say what he wanted and wanted to listen to anyone. This is the experience and lesson he has carefully summed up in the Yan Palace over the years.
I thought that Gongzi Yu was the only person who could let him talk to, but now that I think about it, he was really wrong.
Thinking of this, Gongzixi smiled a little shyly. "When the time comes, Ziyu, you have to drink a few more glasses of wine."
Gongzi Yu agreed, and picked up another chess piece.
After Gongzixi and Gongzi Yu put this chess piece on the chessboard, he smiled and picked up his chess piece.
Gongzi Yu found that Gongzi Xi had won, and put down his right hand that was about to continue to hold the chess pieces. "Brother Wang, your chess skills are becoming more and more exquisite."
Childe's smile gradually retracted. "It's just that the more I practice, the more I know."
Gongzixi's sentence has a deep meaning, a pun. Gongziyu didn't perceive the deep meaning of Gongzixi's words, but just agreed with the literal meaning of Gongzixi.
"If Ziyu can often learn chess skills with the second brother, it will really be a great blessing for Ziyu."
Although Gongzixi did not show any abnormality on his face, he was very disdainful in his heart.
"Now that I am married, I will soon be a husband. I don't know if Ziyu has his own sweetheart? ”
In fact, a delicate-minded person like Gongzixi has long seen Gongziyu's intentions for Ni Wuyin. It's just that this discovery was long before Gongzi Yu himself.
Although Gongzi Yu has achieved fame in his career, he really has no experience and talent in his feelings. If it weren't for Fang Xian's words, Gongzi Yu might not know what he was thinking until now.
"There's no rush to this. Now that Che'er has married and the second brother has signed a marriage contract, then I don't have any other wishes. ”
Hearing Gongziyu say this, Gongzixi felt extremely disgusted.
Now in Gongzixi's heart, Gongziyu has become a villain who can be said to do everything in order to get the throne.
"In other words, Che'er and Mrs. Lan's wedding was too hasty."
Childe Xi diverted the topic and mentioned Childe Che.
Gongzi Yu smiled bitterly.
At the beginning, he did think that Gongzi Che was too hasty. But now it seems that for the sake of the woman he really likes, he can decisively ask Emperor Yan for marriage without scrupling too much......
"Sloppiness is also a kind of free and easy. If only I could be a person as sloppy and carefree as Che'er. ”
There are some things that you can't do as you want in the first place. How you think and how you do it don't seem to have much to do with it.
"Listening to Ziyu's words, what is so difficult to hide?" After listening to Gongziyu's emotion, Gongzixi heard that he seemed to have something to say in his heart.
Gongzi Yu shook his head.
No matter what he wants to say, Gongzi Yu will not say it. He prefers to protect all those he wants to protect in the midst of misunderstanding and resentment.
Whether it's Childe Creek or Ni Wuyin.
"Ziyu did what he did, although he couldn't do what he wanted, he never regretted it."
