Chapter 265: The Real Problem
After King Chen finished speaking, he covered his mouth with one hand, as if he really didn't plan to speak anymore. The other hand made a "please" gesture to them.
Several people followed King Chen out of Shengping Courtyard, said goodbye outside the courtyard, and went back to their homes happily, as if what had just happened had not happened.
Seeing off the guests, King Chen turned around and glanced at Rong Yunxi, his eyes were very heavy. Then he turned and walked away, without any communication with her.
Rong Yunxi shrugged his shoulders and followed stupidly.
You don't need to ask to know that King Chen is annoyed because she went out with King Ling.
Today's incident, as long as you are a clear-eyed person, you can see that it is early summer who is taking the pot for her. Using early summer to top the pot for her is to be able to suppress this matter on the bright side, but in fact, it is equivalent to admitting that she was with King Ling at that time.
Everyone was like a mirror in their hearts, thinking that she and King Ling were doing that tricky thing together, and they happened to be encountered, so they grabbed their maid on top. It's just that the matter has been decided, and no one is embarrassed to ask directly for the sake of face. No one asked, and she naturally had no chance to distinguish, so she could only let everyone make this judgment in her heart.
What they think in their hearts, it doesn't matter, as long as this matter is not made big and ended on the spot, King Chen will not have any direct loss in face. But that doesn't mean there are no losses.
This kind of expression is even more uncomfortable when people look at it with sympathy.
It's as if everyone is treating him as a fool, and he knows it in his heart, but he can only continue to pretend to be stupid and let people think like this.
However, the current situation is the best solution she can think of.
Lizi is still face, she can't take care of it all.
All she can do is to try to maintain the stability of the situation and let everyone keep this idea in mind, instead of talking about it, discussing, and confirming her ugly behavior.
But she really didn't have anything ugly.
In this matter, the most aggrieved person is obviously her. She didn't do anything, but she had to be treated as a water-based poplar person. But at this time, she couldn't give herself a grievance.
Who let her out? Isn't it good to sit honestly in the house? Why do you want to go out, why do you want to give Brother Ling this chance to chase him out? Why didn't you settle this matter in a few words, why did you have to talk to him for so long?
If she didn't go out, if she didn't delay outside with Brother Ling, nothing would happen.
But now, it's all happened.
She could only follow behind King Chen as a sinner, and she didn't dare to say a word. Waiting for his verdict, let him vent.
But all the way back to Zhaodeok Temple, King Chen didn't say a word. Just sat down on the chair in the study with a calm face, as if thinking about something.
Because early summer went back first, no one followed them, so Yunshang followed.
Seeing King Chen like this, Yunshang asked softly, "Your Highness is tired?" Do you want slaves and maids to serve and freshen up? ”
King Chen nodded: "Go ahead." ”
Yun Sheng turned around in response, and asked Rong Yunxi, who was standing in the square hall looking at King Chen, "Where is Niangniang?" Do you want slaves and maids to serve and freshen up? Or did the slave go and call Zhiqiu over? ”
"You go and call Zhiqiu to come over", Rong Yunxi said, "The girl is also tired all night, and I can't bear to let the girl be too tired." ”
"Yes." Yunshang replied and stepped back respectfully.
This is King Chen's slave, how can she be embarrassed to call at will?
After Yunshang retreated, Rong Yunxi's lips moved, wanting to say something to King Chen, but he didn't know what to say or what to say.
What to explain? What is there to explain?
Is it necessary for her to explain something to him? Originally, wasn't it just a cooperative relationship? Hasn't she already handled this well? On the bright side, tonight's incident is just a misunderstanding. As a partner, all she has to do is to maintain it on the surface, and she is not allowed to explain anything to him from the bottom of her heart.
is so relieved to himself, but this heart can't be settled.
"Can Niangniang and His Highness rest?" Outside the door, there was a knock on Mama Jin's door to ask.
"Come in." Rong Yun Xi Road.
Mama Jin entered the house, gave a salute to her and King Chen, and replied: "Niang Niang asked the old slave to go to the treasury to get two taels of silver for the early summer, and the old slave has already taken it." I came to report to my mother. ”
For Mama Jin's timely attitude of reporting, Rong Yunxi is quite satisfied. Mama Jin knew that she had something to explain, and in order to show her attitude of "changing the evil and returning to the right", she deliberately came over earlier to reassure her.
"There's Mama Lao, just wait for Mama to send it over to early summer." Rong Yunxi said with a smile.
"Yes." Mama Jin answered and did not leave. Because Rong Yunxi said "wait a minute", he obviously had other instructions.
"Today's incident is just a misunderstanding. For such a trivial matter, Mama doesn't need to report it to the Queen Mother, right? ”
"Rest assured, today's matter, the slave will never mention it in front of the Queen Mother." Mama Jin affirmed happily.
Rong Yunxi nodded and said, "Mama is a smart person, I am very relieved." Go down, go down, rest early, don't be tired. ”
"Yes, thank you for your care." Mama Jin gave a salute and bowed down.
I thought that after Mama Jin stepped back, King Chen would take advantage of this effort to say something sneering to her. Therefore, he subconsciously looked at King Chen...... But he still sat quietly behind the desk, and didn't look at her, staring at a little bit in the air, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a short time, Yunshang and Chuxia came in and served them to freshen up. After freshening up, King Chen still didn't say a word. And he took off his clothes, and went to lie down in bed. I pulled up the quilt as if I was going to sleep.
Rong Yunxi stood on the edge of the bed and looked at him, and several thoughts turned in his heart, and in the end, he just sighed slightly, and also lifted the quilt and lay down.
At this time, she knew very well that emotions pushed her and made her want to give King Chen an explanation; But reason was controlling her, telling her over and over again that you couldn't explain it to him.
If you explain it to him, you will admit something.
She knew that at this time, she was cowardly running away from her heart.
The moment she said to King Ling that she was reluctant to King Chen, she knew it. No one knows better than herself how she really felt when these words came out.
"Sigh what?"
When Rong Yunxi was about to forget the slight sigh he had just made, King Chen opened his mouth to ask.
"Huh?" Rong Yunxi was subconsciously surprised. But then, shaking his head, "It's nothing." ”
King Chen gathered the quilt, turned over, and ignored her no more.
Somehow, seeing King Chen turn his back to her, Rong Yunxi turned around and turned his back at him.
It seems that because of the guilt in my heart, looking at him, I can reduce some of the guilt in my heart.
After looking at it for a while, I still felt uncomfortable lying like this, so I turned over and lay flat.
"What are you doing over and over again? To sleep or not to sleep? Don't sleep in the study, don't disturb others. King Chen said in a deep voice.
"I ...... Depend on...... Why should I go to the study......" Originally, when the first word came out, it was still arrogant and emphasized, but after a word, he became less confident, and asked in a low voice.
But King Chen had ignored her.
It can be heard from King Chen's voice that King Chen is angry in his heart, but he can't hold it.
In fact, thinking about it, it is not easy for King Chen to be so calm and not roar at her. The most taboo thing for men is to be cuckolded. Although they are not husband and wife, in the eyes of everyone, they are real husband and wife. So at this time, it was normal for him to feel that the top of his head was green, and he was full of anger because of it.
Rong Yunxi turned around and looked at his back again. Anyway, King Chen was wronged by her this time, which she couldn't deny. Since she was the one who caused innocent people, shouldn't she apologize?
Apologizing doesn't mean anything, she doesn't have to be so serious with herself. Apologizing to King Chen is just out of basic etiquette between people.
So...... Dao, Dao...... Just apologize!
If it's your own fault, you have to admit it, and you can't do that evasive act without responsibility.
"Hey......" Thinking so, Rong Yunxi reached out and patted King Chen.
"What's the matter?" King Chen didn't turn around, just turned his back to her, and asked in a deep voice.
"I'm sorry," Rong Yunxi said, "I've caused you to lose face." ”
King Chen didn't react.
Rong Yunxi half-propped himself up, tentatively looking for his face, wanting to see what kind of expression he was looking on now.
Originally, it was done carefully, but King Chen suddenly turned around, stared at her and asked, "What are you looking at?" ”
But Rong Yunxi was scared a lot, so he didn't exclaim in surprise!
"Uh...... I...... Nothing, it's uncomfortable to lie down, change positions. Rong Yunxi fell back to the bed a little embarrassed, feeling like she was running away.
King Chen turned his back and ignored her again.
Rong Yunxi lay flat and looked at Tian'er, turned over to look at the ground, and then turned around and looked at his cold back. I tossed and turned, and I didn't know what I was thinking.
Anyway...... She had already apologized, so she didn't owe him anything. Her apology was a necessary act she had done out of courtesy, and as for whether he accepted it or not, it was a matter of his mind and had nothing to do with her.
Yes, so she doesn't owe him anything, and there is no need for her to continue to blame herself.
What's more, at this time, shouldn't she be worried about her own name, early summer's emotions, and Brother Ling's emotions? Shouldn't she be thinking about how to find out the person who hurt her behind her back? Now what's going on......
Rong Yunxi felt that he had a headache and was very confused in his mind, but his heart was even more chaotic......
