Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Insult of Prince Hui
"Princess Qingyi, please go back, the saint is busy with government affairs, you better not disturb him. It's useless to wait here either. ”
This is the third time that the old man in the Taiji Hall has persuaded me, I still stubbornly stand outside the hall and refuse to leave, the sky has completely darkened, and the maid in charge of the lamp is shuttling back and forth around me, all looking at me with strange eyes.
After I followed the maid of the concubine to the Taiji Palace, I have not seen any trace of the saint, I waited from the sunset to the moon willows, and my uncle who sat in the hall still refused to see me.
I don't know why I'm so stubborn at the moment, maybe it's not for the twilight snow, but to prove how the so-called family affection, which is as thin as a cicada's wings, can be easily dismantled. He once snatched me back from the ghost gate, told me that I still have a home, he once gave me supreme respect and warmth, so that my heart's desire for relatives awakened again, and it was he who told me how important my mother was in his heart, how he couldn't lose me...... He also once said in front of everyone that he wanted to keep me as the future queen, although I didn't want to, although too many people said that he kept me in the palace to contain the Northern Desert, but I still believe that it was because he valued me. Cherish my mother.
But now, when I came to see him, he could turn me away without asking for a reason. I didn't blame him at all when I realized that the Holy Lord had easily agreed to Twilight's request to be the queen, because I had never expected that seat, but now, the details of the matter were gradually spreading out in my heart, making me feel colder and colder.
Twilight did this to fulfill me and Ye Linghan, but what about the Holy One? He kept saying that he wanted to give me the best and take care of me for my mother, but he didn't care about my feelings at all, and treated me like a chess piece, arranging his battle situation at will, coming and going as soon as he wanted, is this what he said was the way to be good to me?
It's ridiculous that I've always been attached to his warmth. I'm so good at deceiving and failing enough.
The night breeze was already a little cold, I bit my lip, took one last look at the golden palace in front of me, didn't say anything, and turned to leave.
From then on, there were no more relatives in this world.
If the so-called relatives, the so-called beloved, can't be by your side, can't share the wind and rain, can't walk hand in hand, can't take care of it wholeheartedly, and you have to work hard to please and be careful to compliment, then what is the difference between such relatives and strangers! Don't just have such feelings!
The waves in my heart were turbulent, I lowered my head and walked forward angrily, my steps were getting faster and faster, as if I wanted to get rid of the loneliness and powerlessness that came from behind, why, I just had the concept of home, but told me that this is not home at all, just a golden cage full of interests, which is locked in all kinds of people who have long forgotten what family affection is.
"Oops!" A cry of fear.
I was absent-minded because I was walking with my head down, and at a corner, I collided head-on with the person coming from the right, because I was walking too fast just now, I was hit two steps back, and I was frightened, I saw that I hit the broom star back to the prince.
When Prince Hui was hit, he immediately became angry, and I was ready to be scolded with a slap on my head and face. Prince Hui was just about to have a seizure, and when he saw that there was something wrong with the look on my face, he looked at me curiously.
"Princess Qingyi," he called my name in a strange tone without smiling, "what's wrong with you?" You've been in a good position for the past two days, what's wrong? This is being bullied. ”
I bit my lip and didn't try to talk to him, but he didn't give up, "Oh...... I know...... Your name has recently been overshadowed by your good sister Twilight, but she robbed your man, and I heard that she was appointed as the future queen by the Holy Lord, and you suddenly have nothing, you are sad for this, right? ”
Hui Prince's words are vicious, it seems that he is really looking for trouble today, remembering the grudge he had with him in the Imperial Garden before, he has always held a grudge, and today he finally got the opportunity, and he will definitely get it back with interest. Count me unlucky today, I can't afford to provoke and hide......
But the prince immediately understood my intentions, and the few retinues behind him lined up, and my path was all blocked.
Prince Hui looked domineering, so he was confused, "What's wrong?" Unfortunately, I said it, or is it really for this matter? If it's for this, then you really don't have to be angry, who doesn't have a few scumbag friends? There are countless women who specialize in stealing food from other people's plates, and when you meet this kind of woman, you just accept your fate, so why be angry with this kind of person? ”
When he speaks of a two-faced woman with three swords, is he referring to Twilight? I resisted the urge to slap him twice, and I would not allow him to slander my friend like that.
"But seriously, it's not right if you're angry. As the saying goes, good will be rewarded with good and evil will be rewarded with evil, it's not that the time has not come, you robbed the quasi-concubine of Heze, and thought about the feelings of the princess of Heze? And now, Twilight Xue robbed your man, and you deserve it. Don't think that you have fallen out of favor in front of the saint, you must know that an ugly monster like you, the saint has never favored you......" Prince Hui had an extremely happy face.
I clenched my fists tightly, reminding myself to stay calm, trying to restrain the tears in my eyes from falling, I couldn't cry, especially not in front of such a person. The more sad I am, the happier he becomes, no, I can't let him get away with it......
"What's wrong? Want to cry? Prince Hui lowered his head and looked at me twice, and continued to sarcastically: "Have you heard the story of Xi Shi laughing and Dong Shi following my example? You are so ugly and pitiful, and you can't arouse the slightest sympathy from others...... I thought you would be so powerful if you were the princess of the Northern Desert, if you can't go back to the Northern Desert, you will be nothing, and if you are imprisoned in this palace, you will be nothing. And with such an ugly face, tsk......"
"By the way, don't you have anyone to ask for? It looks like you just came out of the Holy Tai Chi Temple, right? Why, even the Holy One understands that you are actually a waste at all? What about Ye Linghan? Where's your night chill? Prince Hui deliberately raised his voice and screamed, and deliberately looked left and right.
"Look, the prince is now completely on the side of Dusk Snow, what about your Ye Linghan? Why didn't you see him come forward? And what about the princes? Well? The provocation of the prince of Hui became even more unscrupulous.
"Smack!" I raised my hand and slapped him in the face, and everyone was stunned, including myself.
There is a limit to my patience, and just because I don't say a word doesn't mean that I can be insulted at will!
"You...... How dare you hit me......" Prince Hui said indignantly, his eyes glaring at me in disbelief, and I was ready for his next fury.
"Princess Qingyi, praise the prince!" A calm male voice sounded behind them, interrupting the Hui prince's attempt to take revenge.
I looked behind them, a man in white clothes and a guard stood ten steps away, his figure was tall but slightly thin, his facial features were clean and handsome, a pair of thick eyebrows flew into the sideburns, a bit of a quiet and calm feeling of ink painting, black hair and white clothes, as if he did not eat the fireworks of the world.
But just look at his outfit and know that this is also a prince.
The prince immediately became disciplined, and he watched the prince walk towards us step by step, with an extremely unnatural smile on his face, but the prince was still dignified and calm, as if he had not seen anything that had just happened.
"Your Royal Highness King Yu, you, why are you here?" Prince Hui asked with a stammer. It turned out that the man in front of him was the second prince Yu Wang Suzheng, before I heard Yang Zhangshi say that the second prince Su Zheng was tranquil by nature, did not like to fight, and only devoted himself to poetry, calligraphy and painting, and was the most full of poetry and books in the palace.
"Then why are you here, Prince?" King Yu asked rhetorically.
"I ......," the prince couldn't answer.
The second prince didn't wait for his answer, raised his head and smiled gently at me, and called softly, "Sister Qingyi." ”
I was immediately shocked by his smile, what a clean smile, like a breeze blowing slowly in March, like a sunflower in the May sun, bright and full of temperature.
"I originally said that I was going to visit my sister in Anle Palace, but I didn't want to meet here, how can I still get used to it in the palace recently?" The second prince's voice was low and soft, asking about my situation with concern, I was suddenly a little flattered by the gentle familiarity of the man I met for the first time, buried his head low and did not speak, the tears just now were still rolling in his eyes, I don't know how to hide my embarrassed appearance now, but he didn't seem to dislike it at all, and there was something in his eyes that I had never seen, the real brother's doting and protective feelings for his sister.
Su Zheng saw that I didn't speak, took two steps towards me, raised one hand and patted my head, and asked gently, "Look, the circles under your eyes are red, have you been wronged?" Come, tell my brother. ”
I looked at him in a daze, and the tears all fell down, this is the first time someone has really treated me with the mentality of a brother, this is the first time I have been taken care of by my brother, and the first time I have been protected by my brother.
Su Zheng saw me crying, he was a little flustered, and he didn't know where he provoked me, so he could only keep comforting me: "What's wrong?" So sad? It's okay, it's okay, don't cry, don't cry, there's a second brother here, support you, don't be sad. ”
