Chapter 106: Silent Punishment
"Tell the king what happened as it is, and don't leave anything out." Ning Xiang nodded stupidly. explained what happened to Wei Sa as it was, and wanted to deliberately exaggerate the seriousness of Ruoxi's injury, but she thought that Ruoxi could run and jump now, and swallowed back the words that came to her mouth. Wei Sa's cheeks were blue at night, which was daunting, Ning Xiang swallowed his saliva and stammered, "That, Your Highness." Will you save Sister Ruoxi out? ”
Wei Sa looked at the sky, not knowing what he was thinking, and said, "If I don't save her, who else can save her?" ”
Ning Xiang suddenly became happy, jumping so high that Wei Sa was startled, "Your Highness! The slave knows that His Highness will not be so ruthless and unjust! Your Highness, you are such a great man! Ning Xiang's little face flushed with excitement, Wei Sa frowned, and covered her mouth, "What the hell is your name in the middle of the night." Are you afraid that others won't be able to hear? ”
Ning Xiang whined twice, nodded obediently, and Wei Sa let go of his hand, "You go to take care of her first in the past few days, and then go to see her when I'm done with what I'm doing." "Now in this mess, let's not bring this wind to her. But Ning Xiang was completely wrong, her elated expression collapsed, and she looked at Wei Sa cautiously, "Then you have to hurry up, or Sister Ruoxi should be married by someone else." ”
"Marry off?" Wei Sa frowned, he had only been gone for less than two months, and she had a new candidate? I can't see that this girl has a lot of hands to seduce men. He should have felt relieved that someone willing to come forward to help her could completely avoid the embarrassing situation of sandwiching him between Xianyue and Ruoxi, but ...... Why did I have a strange feeling in my heart when I heard Ning Xiang say those two words?
Ning Xiang hesitated to think about whether to tell him, but she had already said it very honestly, "Lord Zhong these days...... I take good care of Sister Ruoxi. She said it very subtlely, but she believed that His Highness Wei Sa, who was as clever and cunning as a fox, had understood what she meant. In fact, Wei Sa really understood.
Lord Chung...... Zhong Wuyan......
His good-looking eyes reveal a cold and arrogant look, shouldn't he be Ziyan's colt? It turned out that the root cause of Zi Yan's rejection was here, but I didn't see Zhong Wuyan and Ruoxi have any special interactions, when did the two of them start talking about marriage? Was it when Ruoxi was still in the Hall of Forgotten Souls? Wasn't he the one who often detained Ruoxi at that time?
"Your Highness, did you just say that you were busy with the matter of Princess Ziyan?" Ning Xiang's eyes rolled, and she asked with some concern, "Princess Ziyan, is she okay?" The slave maid only heard about it in the afternoon, and it really scared half her life. She caressed her chest, still feeling palpitating. It's not that she likes Wei Ziyan much, but ...... If Wei Ziyan dies because of Zhong Wuyan's refusal to marry, Zhong Wuyan will become a great sinner in the Great Qi Kingdom, His Majesty and his wife will definitely not let him go, and maybe they will give him death to the princess for burial, and at that time, the matter between him and Ruoxi will be all in vain.
She shook her head and thought about it in her mind, and then looked at Wei Sa, who was also thinking, and secretly compared it in her heart, she still firmly believed that Ruoxi would not have good fruits to eat if she followed Wei Sa, the reason was very simple. First, Ruoxi is not beautiful, and there are too many beauties around Wei Sa to count, so you can compare Ruoxi to the ground by picking out one at random. Second, Ruoxi's status is lowly, even if Wei Sa is willing to accept her, it is estimated that she will not even think about the side concubine, that is, the life of a concubine, and she must not be bullied to death! Look at Zhong Wuyan again, although his status and identity are not as noble as Wei Sa, but he is also the son of the prime minister, Ruoxi has been with him all his life to eat and drink without worrying, and he has to wear silk and satin, gold and silver jewelry. Besides, Zhong Wuyan can refuse Princess Ziyan for Ruoxi, which shows how sincere Zhong Wuyan's heart is to Ruoxi, if Ruoxi marries, she must be the lady of the main room, the mistress of Zhongfu, and she doesn't need to look at other people's faces at all. Besides, in terms of appearance, Zhong Wuyan is indeed much better looking than Wei Sa.
Wei Sa glanced at Ning Xiang thoughtfully, "Zi Yan escaped death, and she escaped a catastrophe." ”
"Well, then you can't let go of that ruthless county lord, that woman is really bad, first beat Ruoxi half to death, and then made the princess half angry, according to the slave maid, it is better for Your Highness to let her die directly." Ning Xiang said in a hurry. Wei Sa looked at her with a headache, knocked Ning Xiang's head, and she screamed out in pain. "The slave is telling the truth, and you still beat it?"
"It's because I'm telling the truth that I want to warn you, in this place, don't treat everyone as a good person, and you can't say anything casually, hey, Ruoxi probably often plays with friends like you, so it's always so unlucky." After listening to Ning Xiang's words, Wei Sa calmed down a little, at least Ruoxi was still safe. After sending Ning Xiang away, Wei Sa turned around and entered the Hall of Forgotten Souls.
Lu'er had already prepared hot water for him, waiting for him to bathe and change clothes, Wei Sa soaked comfortably in the hot water, leaned his head against the edge of the bucket, the water vapor stained his eyelashes, water droplets flowed down his eyebrows and sideburns, Lu'er took out the clean underwear from the back room, looked at Wei Sa's perfect back line, the water beads on the wheat-colored skin were crystal clear, and the strong muscles gave people a sense of security, she couldn't help but be stupid when she looked at his bare back so boldly for the first time.
Wei Sa suddenly moved, and the water droplets jumped out of the bucket with a clatter, and he put his palm on his left side of his chest, closing his eyes and recalling. Lu'er stood behind him, and when she came back to her senses, she found that Wei Sa had fallen asleep. He was so tired. Holding a white towel in his hand, Lu'er walked over to wipe his soaked hair on the top of his head, when he fell asleep, his eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, she suddenly hoped that he would stay asleep like this, only at this time, she dared to look at him so carefully, and felt sorry for everything about him.
"Lu'er," Wei Sa, who had been closing her eyes all the time, suddenly called her, and Lu'er hurriedly lowered her head and stopped looking at him. "Do you think Ziyan and Zhong Wuyan are together?" His eyes were still closed, and he only moved his lips slightly.
Lu'er was a little surprised, usually Wei Sa would never discuss these things with her, she hesitated, and replied cautiously, "Everyone knows Princess Ziyan's affection for Lord Zhong. ”
Wei Sa pursed his lips and didn't care, "It's not that you want you to say this, don't mention which of them treats whom, just say that if the two of them get married, will the two of them have a good life." ”
Lu'er thought for a while and said seriously, "To be honest, Lu'er thinks that if it is really as His Highness said, then neither of them will be comfortable." ”
"Why?" Wei Sa asked.
"Because Lord Zhong doesn't have Princess Ziyan in his heart. Lu'er just felt that if this was the case, Princess Ziyan would definitely be very sad in the future. Lu'er changed a towel and continued to wipe his hair, Wei Sa's hair was very long and dense, and he had to change the towel several times every time he had to dry it. But she never felt annoyed, and ...... Every time I enjoy spending time alone with him like this, fantasizing that she is his virtuous wife, serving her husband who has returned from a busy day, this feeling is very sweet and warm. But...... At the end, it hurts again.
"Even you can see it, why doesn't Zi Yan understand this truth herself?" Wei Sa sighed, as long as Wei Ziyan opened her mouth, what kind of man in the world could she not find? If you have to like this Zhong Wuyan, let's not mention that he is a blind man, just over the years, he has never seen Zhong Wuyan have any gentle behavior towards Wei Ziyan.
"Lu'er understands the princess's mind." Lu'er wrung a handful of water from the towel, looked at the ripples in the bucket, and whispered, "Although Lord Zhong doesn't have a princess in his heart, for a princess, as long as she can stay by the side of the person she likes all the time, there is nothing more enjoyable than this." ”
Wei Sa moved, and lamented in his heart, he didn't open his eyes, maybe he was afraid to open his eyes and see the look on Lu'er's face, but there were some things he still had to say, because he didn't want to hurt her, so when he said this, he said it with a lot of persuasion, "Emotional matters, you can't ask for it, it's about you and me, Zi Yan goes on like this, neither of them will be happy, you ...... Got it? ”
The scalp hurt a little, Wei Sa endured it and didn't speak, and Lu'er's fingers holding the towel contracted and turned white, and he tore off a few of Wei Sa's hairs. She was startled and hurriedly let go, "I'm sorry, Your Highness, Lu'er didn't mean it." I ......" tears rolled in her eyes, how could she not understand the truth, it was because she had always understood it, so it was so painful.
Wei Sa waved his hand, heard the choking in her tone, hesitated to take her trembling hand, and let her stand beside him. Lu'er held back her tears, even more surprised by his actions.
The big hand holding her hand was strong, with a rough texture on the palm, wet and wrapped her little hand, and even passed his body temperature to her, "Lu'er is a good girl, Your Highness, I don't want to delay you." The hand he held trembled, the tears hidden in his eyes slipped down uncontrollably, and even his voice trembled, "Your Highness, you lied, you said it just now...... Forgotten Soul Palace, Lu'er can stay as long as she wants......" After only such a short period of effort, he said such things to her, how could she stand it.
"You should learn from Ruoxi." He let go of his hand, and at the same time opened his eyes, and the mist filled his eyes, as if to remind him of the haunting eyes. "She is not a person who accepts death, and when she encounters a good opportunity, she will definitely seize it." Listening to the meaning of Ning Xiang's words, Ruoxi should not have rejected Zhong Wuyan's marriage proposal. He saw his reflection in the water, and the wry smile on the corner of his mouth was so obvious, in fact, she followed Zhong Wuyan, isn't it also a good destination?
