Chapter 52: 'In Name but Not in Reality'
Steward Zhao saw Chen Su suddenly walking out of the prince's room with his head down, worried about the prince's condition, so he went in to take a look, and when he walked in, he saw Song Zhao trying to sit up from the bed, he hurriedly walked over to help, and asked out loud at the same time: "What does the prince think?" ”
Song Zhao sat up straight and said lightly: "It's much better." ”
"Then the old slave will be relieved." Steward Zhao mentioned it as if unintentionally: "Thanks to the princess's medicine, your injuries can heal so quickly, Lord Wang." ”
Song Zhao glanced at him, then retracted his gaze and looked into the distance, with an idle attitude, as if he just asked casually: "What is the princess busy with these days, why don't you see her coming?" ”
Steward Zhao hurriedly said: "This old slave doesn't know, when the prince is better, you might as well go and see it yourself." ”
Song Zhao's expression was slightly strange, and because Steward Zhao was beside him, he couldn't say anything more. However, it has been some time since I have been lying in bed to recuperate, and there is nothing wrong with going out for a walk.
Thinking of this, he lifted the quilt and said, "It's a good day, it's good to go out for a walk." ”
"Hey!" Steward Zhao couldn't hide his joy and agreed, Song Zhao heard it, and for some reason he deliberately explained: "Don't get me wrong, this king didn't go to see the princess on purpose, he just wanted to take a walk." ”
Steward Zhao hurriedly lowered his head, put away his smile, and said with a respectful attitude: "The old slave understands." ”
Song Zhao let him go, changed his clothes, and told Steward Zhao not to follow, and went out alone. Steward Zhao behind him watched the prince walk out, and finally couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth again.
Song Zhao said that he was walking casually, and he unconsciously passed by Zhuyin Temple, and he told himself in his heart that it was just because Zhuyin Academy and Dunyun Temple were the closest, so he just stopped by. But it's all here, so it's better to go in and have a look.
Thinking like this, he stepped into the courtyard gate, and when he raised his eyes, the courtyard was quiet, and there was no one to do, let alone Gong Tianyao.
He paced over, Lianxin came out with water, looked up and saw the prince, and couldn't help but be startled, and even forgot to speak.
"Where's the princess?" Song Zhao frowned, not knowing why this maid had this attitude when she saw her.
Lianxin finally reacted, hurriedly put down the copper basin in her hand, wiped her hands dry, and walked over quickly to salute, she forced her composure, but her voice couldn't stop trembling: "Back to the prince's words, the princess is taking a nap at this time." ”
Siesta? Is it to use this excuse to send him away?
Song Zhao didn't demolish her, but said, "This king is going to see the princess." ”
"Lord Wang!" Lianxin called urgently, Song Zhao turned a deaf ear, and walked straight in, Lianxin is now difficult to ride a tiger, and he didn't dare to stop it, but the princess told him, saying that no one would see him, and he also specially emphasized that especially the prince, he must not be called in.
This is simply an impossible task, how can her little maid stop the prince?
The princess and princess made an awkward noise, but it was their subordinates who suffered, Lianxin followed behind aggrieved and worried, Song Zhao himself raised the curtain and strode in, only to see Gong Tianyao sitting by the window with his back to him and didn't know what he was looking at.
Sure enough, he was lying to him, Song Zhao said unhappily: "Didn't you say that the princess was taking a nap?" ”
Lianxin was almost not frightened, as soon as her knees were weak, she was about to kneel, if the prince was unhappy, could she still save her little life?
Gong Tianyao heard the voice, and when she looked back, Lian Xin was already kneeling on the ground, biting her lip with a pitiful look, and saying in her mouth: "The slave should die." ”
Gong Tianyao got up and walked over, with a calm face: "I don't blame her for this matter, I asked her to say so." ”
"It's the slave who deserves to die, I don't even know that the princess is awake, I beg the prince to punish her!" Although Lianxin was afraid, she was even more worried that the prince would be angry with the princess, and hurriedly took all the blame on herself.
"When did the king say who to blame?" Song Zhao's expression was cold: "You go out first, this king has a few words to ask the princess." ”
Lianxin got up hesitantly, not knowing what the princess was going to say to the princess, if the princess blamed the princess, she would also guard the princess.
Gong Tianyao knew what she was worried about, so she gave her a look and ordered her to go out, and Lianxin went out step by step, her eyes full of worry and doubt.
As soon as Lianxin left, Song Zhao asked, "Why is the princess hiding and refusing to see this king?" ”
"When did I avoid you?" Gong Tianyao didn't have so many worries, and said mercilessly: "I'm afraid of seeing people, is this also wrong?" If the prince is in a hurry, go over there more, I don't have anything to entertain the prince here, I don't even have tea, the prince should go back early. ”
Song Zhao was very displeased, his face sank, and he replied coldly: "This king can't come to see the princess?" ”
As soon as the words came out, he realized that he had lost his words, and if he wanted to blame Gong Tianyao, he was so choked that he was so provoked by her, he said such a thing.
Gong Tianyao didn't appreciate it at all: "The entire palace is yours, you can go wherever you want, I just borrow this place for a while, how can I have the right to speak." If the prince wants to see it, just watch it slowly, I still have something to do, so I won't accompany you to talk about these things that you have or don't have. ”
After finishing speaking, he turned around and was about to go back to the window and sit down, Song Zhao was successfully angered by her, grabbed her wrist when she turned around, and asked in a cold voice: "Why did the princess say this, you and I are husband and wife, you are naturally the mistress of the palace, why did you become a temporary residence here?" ”
Gong Tianyao also said that she showed her mouth, but since she said it, there was no reason to take it back, she was grabbed by his wrist, and she couldn't open for a while, so she had to turn her head and refute: "Outsiders don't know, isn't it clear to the prince himself?" What kind of husband and wife, it's just in name only, don't lie to yourself. ”
Her tone was so casual, Song Zhao's subordinates forced, took her to the side, forced her to face herself, ignoring Gong Tianyao's stunned expression, he spit out words very clearly, and jumped out word by word: "If it's not enough, this king doesn't mind having this reality with the princess." ”
Rao is tone was cold, and such explicit words couldn't help but sound a little provocative, Gong Tianyao was a little overwhelmed, blinked his eyes, and finally reacted: "You, you let go!" ”
She struggled hard, but for some reason, Song Zhao's strength was much greater than she thought, and she couldn't break it off.
Song Zhao also let go of her at this time, and his voice returned to its usual calmness: "You'd better settle down." ”
After finishing speaking, he strode away, Gong Tianyao was stunned, and before he could recover from the scene just now, Lianxin ran in immediately, and saw Gong Tianyao standing there alone, and saw that the prince's face was not very good-looking when he left just now, and he thought that something big had happened, so he shook Gong Tianyao anxiously: "Princess, are you okay?" ”
Gong Tianyao grabbed her hand, shook her head slowly, and said, "It's okay." ”
