Xiao Zhu's expression was gentle, with pity and connivance, and for a moment, Pei Yaowei thought that he had insight into his identity.

She glanced up at him in surprise, and she breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the way he looked at her.

"Your Majesty," she called, "courtiers and daughters, please greet Your Majesty." ”

Xiao Zhu only felt a trance in front of him, and then came back to his senses.

Mutual revelation. Yes, she's a match, not her, not her......

No one is her.

The pity in his eyes dissipated faintly, he hummed, withdrew the palm on her arm, and turned his eyes to look at Xiang Yinghuai kneeling in front of him.

The girl who was still arrogant and arrogant was kneeling there at the moment, trembling, shocked and frightened.

"The fifth sister's temper is getting better and better." He said slowly: "I am still worried that you are young and it may be difficult for you to adapt to marrying Zhou Guo, but now that you are so sensible, I am very relieved." ”

The voice was still gentle, and there was not the slightest hint of anger to be heard.

Xiang Yinghuai collapsed directly on the ground.

"Your Majesty——!" She came to her senses, stepped forward on her knees, and grabbed Ming Xiaozhu's clothes, "Your Majesty, the courtiers know their mistakes!" The courtiers really know that they are wrong! Please, please don't let me marry Zhou! Courtiers...... Have you forgotten? The courtiers have already promised to marry the King of Chu! It is the holy decree of your Chrysostom, how can it be retracted from the principle of fate! ”

Hearing this, Pei Yaowei also looked at Xiao Zhu.

Xiao Chai snorted lightly, and the look in his eyes lightened a little, "King Chu? Scold...... His Royal Highness the King of Chu cares about national affairs and knows the overall situation best. How could you look at me coldly? ”

Xiao Zhu has a problem, others may not know about it, but Pei Yaoyan really knows him too well.

The more angry he became, the softer he would end his speech, as if he was afraid that he would not be able to contain his anger and explode.

And at this point, she could barely hear his last word 'embarrassed'.

Xiang Yinghuai was still crying unwillingly, Xiao Zhu gave Sun Zhifang a faint look, and Sun Zhifang ordered the palace people to stuff her back into the side hall.

"Your Majesty...... Is it a foregone conclusion to send the fifth sister and her relatives? ”

In the main hall, the palace people retreated, Pei Yao cooked a cup of tea, tentatively opened his mouth, and broke the silence between the two.

Xiao Zhuqian smiled, "Reluctant to her?" ”

Pei Yaowei took care of her expression carefully, and said worriedly: "It's not that I'm reluctant, it's just that ...... After all, she is married far away, and she is also the sister of the courtier's daughter after all, and the courtier's daughter is still worried in the end. ”

Xiao Zhu nodded, and said after a while: "I didn't want to be a rebel king, but the king of Chu took the initiative to speak, saying that he was willing to sacrifice his own marriage for the sake of national affairs. The imperial brother understands the righteousness so well and relieves me of the siege, how can I not know what to do. As he spoke, he looked at her, "In this way, you can only be wronged by your family." ”

"Where is the emperor's words, he will be loyal to the country, relieve his worries for the king, and where will the grievances come from." She said, "It's a matter of the right court, offending the holy face, and asking Your Majesty to forgive me." ”

As she spoke, she arose and confessed.

This time, Xiao Chai didn't stop her, but after she saluted, it didn't hurt to say the last word.

Pei Yao stood up, pondered for a moment, and asked carefully: "Your Majesty doesn't seem to be in a good mood today, the courtiers think selfishly, I'm afraid...... It's not just about getting along, is it? ”

Hearing this, Xiao Chai raised his eyebrows, "Oh? Tell me, what's on my mind? ”

She seemed to hesitate for a long time before asking, "The New Year is approaching, Your Majesty...... But do you miss the first queen? ”

The tone was slow, with a hint of distress.

Xiao Zhu's eyes changed significantly.

Seeing that he didn't speak, she hurriedly looked unintentionally offended, and knelt down again: "It's the courtier's daughter who lost her words, please forgive your majesty!" ”

After another period of silence, Xiao Chai finally spoke: "It's only been a moment since I came to the Pure Palace, and you have said 'forgiveness' a few times?" He lifted his face, "Get up." ”

Pei Yao stood up worriedly, but her eyes were cold.

She heard him say, "You have not lost your word, and I do miss her." ”

"I miss it tightly, sometimes I look at everyone like her, but when I wake up from a dream, I always see both places."

"None of ......"
