Chapter 70: Sisters
This kind of discomfort, after reaching the peak, evolved into panic, and Xu Lan stammered: "Ah...... Jade Pendant ...... I know that......"
When Cui Zhen'er saw Xu Lan's expression, she knew that Xu Lan must have known that when she was praying for blessings just now, what was written on the note, and when she thought of this, Cui Zhen'er's face couldn't help but turn red.
However, Cui Zhen'er, in the end, still knew the purpose of her coming today, so she could only endure her shyness and said: "Yes, in fact, I want to ask, do you really like it, Fourth Prince Ji Chen?" “
When Xu Lan heard Cui Zhen'er's words, she didn't know why, her brain was very messy.
He first thought of what happened to him and Ji Chen, once, the boy in the moonlight, and that smile.
However, immediately, Xu Lan thought of it again, her best friend, her good sister, was still praying for her marriage with Ji Chen just now, and her good sister obviously liked Ji Chen deeply.
These two thoughts kept turning around in Xu Lan's mind, and for a while, they couldn't answer this question, and for a while, in Xu Lan's mind, it was Ji Chen's face, and for a while, it became Cui Zhen'er's face of sincerity and sincerity.
As for Cui Zhen'er, after seeing her good sister and being silent, she already had the answer in her heart, although it was, it was already expected by herself, but when it came to the end, she was still a little sad.
I saw Cui Zhen'er smiling at Xu Lan and said, "It's okay, Sister Lan, since you don't want to say it, I won't embarrass you, I am sincere, bless you and Ji Chen's ......"
"No, I don't like Ji Chen!" When Xu Lan saw Cui Zhen'er say this, she looked at him for a moment, her face turned pale, and before she had time to think, she had already blurted out and interrupted Cui Zhen'er's words.
Looking at Cui Zhen'er's shocked appearance, Xu Lan found that even if it was a lie, as long as she opened her mouth, the words after that were very simple, and she had already said: "Zhen'er, this time, you really think too much." I really don't like Ji Chen. ”
Speaking of this, Xu Lan paused, and then said: "Let's not talk about it, I'm just an insignificant concubine, what about the fourth prince, it is true that today, the prince who is the most promising to become the emperor, between us, it is originally impossible, even if it is still, after taking away this relationship, Ji Chen and I have only met a few times, I can't talk about it, what I like, or I don't like." ”
Then, Xu Lan pursed her lips, ignoring her inner feelings, and said to Cui Zhen'er with a smile: "And, Zhen'er, do you really like Ji Chen?" ”
Cui Zhen'er, hearing Xu Lan ask herself like this, couldn't help but fall into deep thought, and said after a long time: "I like it there, it's already infatuation." ”
It turned out that Ji Chen was still very favored by the emperor, his mother was a concubine, and when Ji Chen was young, his temper was also very soft, and he was very pleasing to the emperor.
At that time, Ji Chen was often in the palace, and he was pampered, and countless princes and nobles who came and went were also very happy that their children could get along with this conservative and pampered little prince.
However, at that time, compared to Ji Chen, who was sought after by tens of thousands of people, Cui Zhener's situation was indeed not so obvious.
Although it is, Cui Zhen'er is also the daughter of King Cui, but the emperor at that time was very jealous of these princes, and the people in the second capital were the best at seeing the emperor's face.
Although it is, on the surface, they will still greet Cui Wang Ye and call him brothers, but they really won't have deep friendships, and they will also tell their children not to be too close to Cui Zhen'er and Cui He.
Children are direct, unlike adults, they will hide their emotions, they will be better in front of them, and they will stab them in the back, they are all straight.
The adults in the family said that they wanted to get along with the four princes, so they befriended the four princes, don't talk to Cui Zhen'er and Cui He casually, so they will get together and squeeze out Cui Zhen'er and Cui He.
This kind of exclusion, there are big and small, the small is verbal insult, and the big one will even endanger life, but those workers treat these with one eye open and one eye closed, after all, at that time, King Cui and Princess Cui were in their fiefdoms, Cui Zhener and Cui He said that it was better to listen to it, and it was to enter the palace to accompany the emperor, and to say that it was ugly, it was a proton.
Those palace people, naturally they are miscellaneous cards, and the current emperor is very dissatisfied with the treatment of the king of the opposite sex, and for the exclusion and oppression that Cui Zhener and Cui He received, it is naturally the same, just turn a blind eye and can't die, but it will definitely not offend those children of princes and nobles who are really in the capital and protect the emperor's favor.
So, don't look at the current Cui Wangfu, there are already a lot of people with the most promising future, and they are rushing to tie up Cui Zhen'er and Cui He, but when the two of them were young, it was indeed very unsatisfactory.
At that time, Cui He was a little older, and he was already sensible, and he knew why, he and his sister were bullied by others, and he would try his best to protect himself and his sister, but Cui Zhen'er At that time, it was really real, he was too young, he didn't know what he was wrong, why so many people wanted to target him.
However, fortunately, those palace maids and eunuchs can't really look at King Cui's son and daughter except for anything, so Cui Zhen'er and Cui He can be regarded as safe and sound, stumbling into their teenage years.
After growing up, Cui He studied very hard, and finally, his hard work paid off, Cui He got good results in the imperial examination, and made a lot of friends, and finally he was able to gain a firm foothold in this capital that eats people and does not spit out bones.
However, Cui Zhen'er, who is just a girl, is indeed not so easy.
Even if Cui He has always been very protective of his sister, but Cui He is a man after all, and it is impossible to follow his sister all the time, so he can only tell his sister that he must protect himself.
In fact, Cui Zhen'er's personality is very introverted and very easy to speak, although it will be a little bit of a struggle, but after all, no one will torture him, Cui Zhen'er grew up peacefully, and it is entirely possible to know that her parents have entered the capital.
However, there are always some variables, which can be regarded as life, but neither Cui He nor Cui Zhener thought that this variable was actually caused by Cui He, and even almost killed Cui Zhen'er.
Cui He grew up day after day, he was already handsome, coupled with reading, and the fragrance of books in his belly was self-explanatory, which naturally attracted the attention of others, especially the eyes of girls.
However, Cui He also knows that his father is suspicious of the emperor, and he must be cautious in his words and deeds, if he dreams and wants to marry a famous family to you, I am afraid that if he does not wait for the emperor to be angry, he will be tortured to death by the people below.
Besides, because he has been bullied since he was a child, Cui He actually hates these famous and noble girls, after all, when he was young, these so-called "ladies" were indispensable for bullying their brothers and sisters.
Therefore, Cui He has always been able to ignore those eyes of admiration, even if there are really some young ladies who are bold in singing and writing love poems, Cui He politely refuses.
Those young ladies, although they say that they like Cui He, but they also have their own pride, and after being rejected, they will only be themselves, crying quietly, and forget it, so Cui He has not said it until then, because of these things, something went wrong.
However, there are exceptions to everything.
There are many people in the capital, and in addition, many girls are pampered, and there are also a few arrogant and domineering people in Ri'an, and the most unruly one is the young lady of the Jingguo Mansion.
The young lady of the Jingguo Mansion has always had the most domineering temper, Cui He and Cui Zhen'er, when they were young, they were bullied by him a lot.
It's just that this eldest lady, after she grew up, she didn't know what was going on, but she actually fell in love with Cui He one day, and this time, Cui He can be said to be the biggest trouble.
Cui He is particularly disgusted with this woman in his heart, when he was young, he often bullied Cui Zhen'er, and verbal abuse was the lightest, and now, when he saw the eldest lady in front of him, it was as if he had lost his memory, as if he had forgotten, how he treated Cui He and Cui Zhen'er, he was arrogant, and said to Cui He: "Hey, Miss Ben has taken a fancy to you, do you like Miss Ben!" ”
Cui He didn't have a burst of disgust in his heart, Cui He back then, after all, was still a little younger, far from the current city government, mind, even if he knew that he should be obscure, don't offend this side, the young lady of the Jingguo Mansion.
However, this eldest lady is really annoying, Cui He hates him in his heart, and the words and expressions that come out are not good.
"I wonder who this young lady is?" Cui He smelled indifferently.
"You! Daring! Licentious! ...... "The young lady of the Jingguo Mansion is probably the first time to see such a person who doesn't give herself face, and her eyes widened at the moment, and she looked angry.
However, this young lady of Jingguo Mansion may really like Cui He, originally, he was in the past, when he encountered this kind of thing, he must have lost his temper, and he would say this sentence and give him a good beating, but now, after accepting the color of his maid, the young lady of Jingguo Mansion actually swallowed this breath.
