Chapter Ninety-Five: Waiting All Night
Qishu.com . The fastest update of the latest chapter of Jiao Niang as a concubine!
Before the prince woke up, Peony picked up the palace fan again and sat next to him to fan King Yu. It was already a little stuffy in the early morning, and the peony fanned for a while, and the forehead was sweaty.
It wasn't until everyone in the courtyard was busy that Zhao Zhen woke up.
"You haven't slept all night?" Zhao Zhen asked.
Peony lowered her head and smiled, didn't say yes or no.
She put down the palace fan and served Zhao Zhen to put on shoes. The placket was half open, revealing the red bandeau inside, and from Zhao Zhen's point of view, a deep ravine was just visible, and a drop of crystal sweat slid down from the neck of the peony and slid into the ravine.
Peony raised her head, wanting to test Zhao Zhen's reaction - men are often hungry and thirsty in the morning, and she didn't believe that this could not touch Zhao Zhen.
However, Zhao Zhen didn't look at her at all.
Peony had a hint of shame. All her pride is built on men, and if she tries her best to conquer a man, and that man is indifferent, it destroys her pride.
She suddenly became unwilling.
She didn't believe that King Yu would have no interest in her. Unless King Yu really only loves men.
After putting on his shoes, Zhao Zhen stood up and put on his coat, Peony wanted to tie a belt for him, but Zhao Zhen refused: "No need, this king will come by himself." ”
Peony smiled, "Okay." ”
She's not an uninteresting woman.
Zhao Zhen didn't stay long, he left after washing, and he didn't even use it early. Peony sat at the window for a moment, thinking about his attitude.
The prince and the princess have a rift - although she doesn't know what it is, it is certain that this is a good opportunity for her to climb up. The prince didn't touch her, just to take care of the princess. But how much patience can a man, especially a man in a high position, have with his woman? As long as the princess and princess continue to be cold, the prince will feel more and more gentle and lovely, and he will be interested in her.
She was born in Liu Xiang, and it is impossible to be a side concubine, but at least she can be a concubine.
Peony thought like this, and her mood calmed down a lot. She picked up the quilt and planned to dry it on a bamboo rack.
King Yu is afraid that he will also stay in the study tonight. She wants the bedding to be fluffy and soft, so that the prince can sleep more comfortably.
Peony went to the backyard, and when she was drying the quilt, she was seen by the little girl last night, so she came over and asked her: "I met Sister Cuizhi just now, and she said that her quilt was not wet." ”
Peony glanced at her lightly and said calmly: "It's indeed not Cuizhi." I sent the quilt to the study. ”
"Study? ......The little girl looked at the peony in surprise and stammered: "Is it difficult, you are, ...... with the prince"
Peony looked at her with a smile.
"Also, Sister Peony is so beautiful, it is reasonable for the prince to take a fancy to her." The little girl's expression was sullen.
She is happy for Peony, but she is not worth it for the princess. The princess came to Ningxia Zhongwei with great difficulty, and was sick for a few days, but what she waited for was such a result.
It's really sad.
The little girl couldn't hide it, and soon told Cuizhi about it. Cui Zhi is exquisite, she knows that this news is important to the princess, and if she tells the princess, she will definitely get a big reward.
So I made an appointment with Shuang'er and said it as if offering a treasure.
"Sister Shuang'er, that peony followed the prince all the way, maybe there will be something on the road! The poor princess is drenched in the rain and sick, and everyone has lost a lot of weight, but the prince is like this! Are you angry? I was also angry, so I came to tell you, don't say that I said it, otherwise the prince will know, and he won't have to peel off my skin? ”
Shuang'er sat expressionlessly, but he was so angry that he couldn't wait to throw the teacup out, smash it on the ground, and turn it into pieces!
It's weird. The prince has been weird in the past two days, and the princess refuses to give in, it turns out that it is for the peony! The princess must have known about the peony a long time ago, so she ignored the prince angrily!
Shuang'er sneered, "I know. You help me keep an eye on the peony, you take these first. ”
Shuang'er took out a bag of silver from his sleeve, heavy. Cuizhi opened it and looked at it, her eyes glowing.
"Sister Shuang'er, rest assured! Whatever the situation, I'll tell you! ”
Shuang'er nodded, and saw Cuizhi walk to the door and stop her: "Don't tell anyone about this again." ”
"Okay!"
Shuang'er then went back to the house.
The room was quiet, and Shuang'er opened the crystal curtain and was greeted by a burst of cool air. The master is afraid of the heat, and Chen Bing has begun to be in the house in the past two days. Yixuan sat on the kang in a single shirt, holding a chess book in her hand, and placed the chess pieces step by step according to the appearance.
In the past two days, Zhao Zhen has been cold to her, so she will find something to do for herself. People tend to think about things when they are idle, but if they have things to do from morning to night, they don't have so much to think about.
She caught a glimpse of Shuang'er and asked casually, "You girl, are you going to see Su Han again?" ”
"It's not."
Yi Xuan thought she was shy, and shook her head with a smile.
"I am wronged for you!" Shuang'er raised her voice coldly, startling Yixuan.
"What do I have to be wronged by?"
"I know it all! I know it all! The prince and the peony are together, you are not happy! Why do you have to be so wronged by yourself? You tell me I can share your worries! ”
When Yi Xuan heard this, it was like five thunderbolts, her eyes widened and she looked at Shuang'er, her lips moved twice, and her face turned pale.
"What do you say? You said the prince and the peony...... What's wrong? ”
Her heart was pounding, and she thought she must have misheard.
"Princess...... You—You don't know? Shuang'er was also confused, "Didn't you ignore the prince because the prince was with Peony?" ”
Yes, together, she heard it right.
Yixuan originally grabbed Shuang'er's arm and grabbed it to death, but now she suddenly lost her strength and slowly leaned on the pillow, her eyes were dilated, covered with a layer of mist, and her expression was blurry, and she couldn't see any joy, anger and sorrow.
Such a face is shockingly beautiful, so beautiful and haggard, as if it will be broken at any moment.
The master doesn't cry, but Shuang'er wants to cry for the master! Whether it is the master's background, family, appearance, or talent, which one is not top-notch? Not to mention the peony, even compared with the ladies of the family, it is also a leader!
Why did the prince fall in love with that broken flower and willow......
Shuang'er said angrily: "If you hadn't rescued you at the beginning, it would not be certain whether the peony would be dead or alive!" But she will take revenge and seduce the prince! ”
"It's not a blessing for me to save her. And how can Grace say that he will take revenge? ”
She never expects to be repaid for her kindness.
"You're just so kind!" Shuang'er chirped: "Peony really deserves to come out of the brothel of the Qinglou, one in front of one and one behind the other." said that he wanted to repay you, and in a blink of an eye, he hooked up with the prince. She should have been left to die in Taoyaoju! ”
Yixuan frowned, Shuang'er's words were really a bit vicious. She doesn't regret saving Peony, Peony's thoughts, she can understand more or less - Peony wants to use King Yu to protect herself. Anyway, if there is no peony, there will be others.
It's her fault, she shouldn't have extravagant hopes, she shouldn't want Zhao Zhen to love her alone.
Why would she think that? How much does she think Zhao Zhen loves her? Maybe she used to love very much, but when the affection is strong, there will be a light time, and she is blinded by sweetness.
"Shuang'er," she took a deep breath, "is this reliable?" ”
"The prince brought peonies all the way, do you say it's reliable?" Shuang'er knew that his master was uncomfortable, but that was the case.
Yixuan smiled bitterly, she felt ridiculous, the man she had been waiting for for a long time gave her such a heavy slap.
"Call Peony to see me."
While waiting, Yixuan leaned against the door and looked at the trees in the courtyard. Slowly, carefully, think back to the events of your previous life.
Since she was fourteen years old, Zhao Yan said that he wanted to marry her. She knew very well in her heart that Zhao Yan really loved her, but she deliberately didn't believe it, and always played sloppy with Zhao Yan and turned the topic around to something else.
In fact, she is a person who knows about love, and she has no idea that she must marry someone she loves - because she has never been. She regarded Zhao Yan as a friend and had no other thoughts, but she did not reject him because of this.
She just hates to fight with other women, uses her talents in boring competitions for favor, and doesn't want to be coveted by calculations.
For this, she preferred to give up the honor of the queen.
So what is it now? She's going to be the kind of woman she hates the most? She escaped from Zhao Yan, but she still can't escape the fate of intrigue with women and competing for favor?
Thinking of this, she was a little excited.
She doesn't care about the name at all, whether it's the queen or the princess, she doesn't care. If Zhao Zhen changed her mind, what was the point of her staying here?
Shuang'er led the peony. On the way, Shuang'er ridiculed Peony a lot, but Peony didn't care.
The princess is jealous, which means that she is indeed an eyesore.
Peony entered the room and bent down to salute Yixuan: "The folk girl Peony has seen the princess. ”
Yixuan was helped up by Shuang'er, smiling haggardly, and pointed to the embroidery pier next to her: "Sit down." ”
On the contrary, Peony is wearing a red butterfly-patterned placket today, combing a fallen horse bun, and a hairpin inlaid with red gold silk, with exquisite makeup and brilliance.
Except for the fact that there is some black green at the moment.
Yi Xuan looked at the black green very eyesore, she knew how it came from - the prince was strong and strong, I am afraid that he didn't put peonies to rest all night.
She looked away in disgust.
"How did you get here?" Yixuan took the tea from Shuang'er and took a sip lightly.
Peony smiled: "The prince wants to bring me, and I can't do it." ”
Yi Xuan gently twisted her fingers, her face was still indifferent: "Really?" It's been a bumpy road, and you've worked hard. ”
"It's not hard work, it's my blessing to be able to take care of the prince."
The overly flamboyant smugness stimulated Yixuan, she raised her eyes and stared at the peony expressionlessly. Peony's smile stiffened and faded.
In any case, she is the princess, and Peony is nothing more than a prostitute who doesn't even have a name. There is a huge difference between the two, and her majesty is not to be provoked.
"Last night, it was you...... The prince who accompanies you? ”
Peony nodded and said with a smile: "I laid out the futon for the prince, waited all night, and didn't leave a single step." The princess can rest assured. ”
Yi Xuan's body trembled slightly, but it was very slight, only she knew. She smiled at Peony, "Really? That palace doesn't reward you, I really can't say it. ”
