Chapter 101: Confrontation
The cancellation of the marriage of the missing pearl has been widely spread both in the palace and in the capital.
Of course, Chang Ning is also known about this.
When her slave Xiao'er told her the news, she was furious and swept everything on the table to the ground.
"It's already a fact, but something went wrong at this critical moment." Chang Ning clenched his fists, sat down again, and looked at the courtyard outside the window, a wave of anger rose in his chest.
Damn, this is already a foregone conclusion. Why did a woman suddenly appear, and that woman was pregnant with Man Changqing's child!
All the men in the world are so unreliable.
Naman Changqing is also a fool, obviously he could marry a princess and ensure that his official fortune will be prosperous in the future, but in the end, he stupidly chose the daughter of a commoner. Still fatherless and motherless.
When Chang Ning felt speechless, he suddenly had no other plans.
"Princess, now everyone outside is saying that the ninth princess is a poor person......" Xiao'er suddenly came out of nowhere.
made Chang Ning even more annoyed, "What is she pitiful? She is stupid, as a princess, she can't even tie a man's heart. ”
Hearing this, Xiao'er silently lowered her head.
Princess, why don't you be your own?
Everyone said that Princess Zhuzhu was a poor person, because she had a love affair with the Eight Horses before, and she had decided to ask the emperor for marriage after Princess Zhuzhu and Ji. But he didn't expect that there was an incident between the eight horses and the eighth princess Changning, and the eight horses had no choice but to abandon the princess and marry Princess Changning instead.
This is placed in ordinary people's homes, and any princess to marry is married, anyway, the identity is the horse master.
But this princess is really pitiful, obviously this time the wedding is approaching, but it is a quasi-horse who was caught and raped in bed. That's it, as long as the prospective horse bites to death is a woman's hook. led him, but he would rather die than live up to that civilian woman. Let the emperor Long Yan be furious, want to kill him to vent his anger, the princess of the pearl saw that he was so affectionate to her, although she was distressed, but because she loved the quasi-concubine, and forced the emperor to die, and saved the quasi-concubine. The would-be colt and the commoner woman were fulfilled.
The story circulating in the capital is indeed the case, but according to the number of meetings between Xiao'er and Princess Changning for many years and the number of meetings with Princess Zhuzhu, Princess Zhuzhu will indeed force the emperor to die in exchange for the quasi-concubine's immortality.
Everyone in the palace knows that the princess is innocent and kind. It's ridiculous that she really didn't expect that after her would-be horses were robbed, she could still intercede for them, and this kind of great spirit of sacrificing herself to become a whole for others should really let her princess learn too.
It's a pity......
Xiao'er looked at the angry master, and immediately closed her mouth, not daring to say a word.
"Princess, the princess is back." At this time, a small slave outside the door came forward to report.
When Chang Ning heard this, he immediately got up and tidied up his appearance, "Xiao'er, what is wrong with you looking at this palace now?" ”
Xiao'er observed it carefully, and said with a smile: "No, no, the princess is beautiful everywhere, and there is nothing wrong with it at all." ”
"That'll be fine." Chang Ning was at ease and walked out of the bedroom confidently.
She knew that when Pei Yi came back to the Eighth Princess's Mansion, she would never come back to their room, so if she wanted to see his person, she could only go to his study by herself.
As soon as he walked to his study, after pushing open his study and seeing his expression, Chang Ning twisted his eyebrows slightly.
The corners of his mouth were slightly curved, looking like a smile, and from the look in his eyes, he seemed to be in a good mood today. It can even be said to be joyful.
Why? What is he pleased with?
Is it a matter of glad that the lost pearl of the marriage was blown away?
As soon as she thought of this, Chang Ning's smile immediately froze, and she vigorously pushed open the door of his study and walked in.
"What are you doing in here?" The moment he saw Chang Ning, Pei Yi's face immediately became gloomy, and there was even a touch of impatience in his eyes.
Of course, such a subtle look naturally can't escape the eyes of Chang Ning, who cares so much about him.
She hooked her lips coldly and snorted, "Look, you're in a good mood today, you're happy about the cancellation of your good cousin's marriage, aren't you?" ”
Pei Yi glanced at her coldly and ignored her, "What is my mood, it has nothing to do with the princess, please go out!" ”
"This is the Eighth Princess's Mansion, all the places and things are given by my father, what qualifications do you have to ask me out?" Chang Ning was furious, pulled his sleeve and said angrily.
"In that case, then I'll go." Pei Yi said, turned around and walked out of the study.
Seeing this, Chang Ning immediately pulled his sleeve, "Don't go, Pei Yi, you stop for me, I don't allow you to go!" ”
"What the hell do you want, I don't want to quarrel with you today." Pei Yi couldn't help but hide his temper, and turned his head to stare coldly at her gorgeous face.
Although the woman in front of him was beautiful and moving, he had no feelings for her......
No, I should say, he hated her so much.
Because of her, he lost his most beloved woman from then on.
His Jewels......
Obviously, as long as he waits for the pearl and the pipe, he can ask the emperor to marry him and ask the emperor to marry him.
But it's because of the woman in front of her, it's because of her so-called love for herself. Push his jewel farther and farther away......
Until, when the pearl sees herself now, her eyes are no longer as bright as before.
Let him realize that she ...... lost the pearl
It's already dead to myself.
As she said to herself that time, she only regarded herself as her eighth brother-in-law now, not even her cousin......
All of this was caused by the woman in front of her.
Thinking of this, Pei Yi shook off the woman in front of him and looked at her coldly, "What?" If I really go away and never come back here, what can you do with me? Chang Ning, what means did you use to get me in the first place, and everyone in the capital knows about it. Even if you are not happy that I treat you like this and make trouble to the emperor, what can the emperor do with me? Pei Yi, I have never been afraid of death, as long as I can get rid of you, I am willing to die. I'm just here to pick up the book today, I don't want to argue with you, princess, you don't want to be unhappy, it's best not to see me again in this life, otherwise I will never let you live comfortably! ”
Since that time when he tore his face in front of the emperor and begged the emperor to let the two of them reconcile, Pei Yi rarely came back to the Eighth Princess's Mansion, and even if he came back, he was always in the study. Chang Ning said that he hadn't seen him for several months, but he didn't expect that this time they met, he would say such cruel words to himself.
Chang Ning was extremely angry, and stepped forward to grab his arm, "You are not allowed to go, Pei Yi, if you come back today, this palace will not let you step out of the Eighth Princess's Mansion again." ”
"I think you're crazy, let go!" Pei Yi glared at her in disgust, wanting to shake off her hand, but she hugged her arm tightly, and he immediately yelled at the slave who was watching the play in a daze: "Don't pull your princess away, be careful that I hurt her!" ”
"Pull away?" Chang Ning sneered, and ordered Xiao'er and the minions outside the room, "Come on, help the palace tie up the horses." ”
***********************************************************************
"Very well, just do what the Master suggested! It's better to speed up! Closing the letter, Murong Xi's handsome face opened a faint smile, and his black pupils were cold.
"Yes, my subordinates will do it immediately!" The man in a dark red shirt exited the study, and saw a young man quickly enter the study.
"Lord, the ninth princess, she is here......"
"Brother ...... Emperor"
Before the little girl's words were completely falling, a voice with a faint anger came from outside the study.
Murong Xi's sword eyebrows were slightly raised, his thin lips hooked a faint sneer, and when he turned his head and raised his eyes, he saw a figure in a pale green brocade robe breaking into his study, but looking at her menacing expression, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, got up and walked to her, "Yizhu, what is the matter with your expression?" ”
"Now I have to ask the imperial brother yourself!" She just put the words down, no need to question and be realistic, this thing must have been done by him!
Hearing this, Murong Xi's eyes sank, and he raised his right hand slightly, "You all go down!" ”
His voice fell, and the minions behind the lost pearl all looked at each other, and then exited the study one after another.
……
"Miss, what do you say the nine princesses will do when they look for the prince?" Zhao Chuyao's master and servant were in the front hall, waiting for Murong Xi to come out to meet him after finishing his official business, but he watched the missing pearl enter the palace with anger, and then grabbed the little servant and asked where the prince was, and the two of them quietly followed all the way to the corridor of the study, separated by a short corridor, Zhao Chuyao saw that the minions had all retreated out of the study, and a wave of doubts could not help but rise in his heart.
Lowered his eyes and said to the slave behind him: "Wait and see what happens, don't make a sound!" ”
……
After the minions all exited the study and closed the door, Murong Xi turned his back to her and said coldly: "Yizhu, what is it that makes you come to be a brother so angrily." ”
"Brother Huang, it was you who told me about Man Changqing and Yinguan, then, Yinguan will be sent to Man Changqing's bed in a coma for no reason, and only you, Prince Ping, can do it, Qingfeng is strong in martial arts, and nothing can be difficult for him. At first, I thought it was strange, Man Changqing obviously didn't think about getting out of the marriage, and it was unlikely that he would take Yinguan back home at this juncture, there must be an inside story in this matter, and sure enough, this inside story is the emperor, brother, you made a ghost. Do you know that will kill them, Yinguan is our savior, and that's how you repay her for saving your life? Yizhu excitedly grabbed his sleeve, his voice was suppressed as much as possible, but his eyes were burned red.
Seeing the hatred and grief on her face, his eyes sank, and a layer of gloom gradually enveloped his handsome face, and he vigorously shook off her hands, "Who told you that this matter was done by my brother?" ”
"It's not that you are going to have anyone, there is no one else who knows about this except you and me." She took a deep breath and clenched her hands into fists, "You said that you have given up that idea and sincerely regard me as a sister, but you have always disapproved of me marrying Man Changqing." I think about it, if the matter of Yinguan is exposed, then my father will never marry me to Man Changqing. Brother Huang, you really disappointed me! ”
She couldn't imagine anyone more suspicious than him in this matter!
The big hand clenched slightly, Murong Xi's handsome face was iron-blue, and he vigorously pushed her down on the table, leaned over her, grabbed her chin with his long hand fiercely, and said in a gloomy voice: "Yes, what if it is for my brother?" Do you think that my father agreed to your marriage to Man Changqing, and I will take you for nothing? You say you are too disappointed in me, how can I not be disappointed in you, because you have not given me a chance to trust! ”
Her heart was like being squeezed by a big stone, and the man who pressed herself on the table was also gloomy, and there was hatred in his eyes.
She struggled to push him away, "You let go of me......"
Murong Xi saw the hatred in her eyes, and her big hand suddenly let go of her as if she had lost her strength, "Zhuzhu, do you know how much pain I feel in my heart when you look at me like this?" ”
Yizhu lowered his face, and his eyes were very hot, "Except for you and me, I know about this matter, and Yizhu can no longer suspect others." ”
Murong Xi's eyes were slightly gloomy, there was pathos in his eyes, and his big hand stretched out to clasp her arm, "Could it be that in your eyes, I am such an unbearable person?" I admit that I deviated from the previous incident between you and the prince of Chuxiguo. However, this time ......"
"You've just admitted it."
"Lost Pearl!" He snorted her name coldly, "I'll say it again, I didn't do it!" ”
"Brother Huang, it's okay, it doesn't matter who did it." Lost Pearl tried to break free from his big hand, but he was so strong that the more she struggled, the harder he worked. She could only stare at him with wide eyes, "But the pearl has decided that I will never see you again in this life." ”
The big hand that was gripping her arm loosened slightly, and the bead didn't struggle anymore. I saw that his handsome face as white as jade was slightly gloomy, and then he shook off her arm, turned his back to her, and the ruthless words slowly entered her ears: "Zhuzhu, you should never say this kind of thing again, otherwise don't blame your brother for being ruthless." ”
Yizhu took a deep breath, "Hasn't the imperial brother always been like that?" The missing pearl has been blamed on the royal brother. Brother Huang, I'm not the Third Emperor Sister, I can't play such a taboo game with the Fourth Emperor Brother like the Third Emperor Sister, you and I are both the biological children of our father, we can't do that. So, Brother Huang, what kind of thoughts we have had, have we all stopped, okay? ”
The man with his back to her was silent for a long time, and finally hooked his lips and let out a cold deep voice, "Since this is your last choice, the imperial brother, then the imperial brother will not be reluctant." If the royal sister doesn't want to recognize me as the royal brother again, we don't have to meet again in the future. Since then, where the royal sister appears, I will never appear again. So be it. ”
"......" beads twisted his eyebrows, and he called people before he spoke.
"A light breeze."
Outside the door, a light breeze pushed the door in, "Master." ”
"Escort the Ninth Princess back to the palace." He ordered in a cold voice.
Light Breeze gave up his hand, "Yes." ”
