Chapter 325: The Crisis of Failure
Qiu Yan stopped, hesitated for a moment, and slowly put her hand on the door, as if she was about to push the door out.
Then, the door slowly pushed open, frowned, and slowly stepped forward. But in the end it stopped.
Suddenly turned back, walked quickly to King Chen, and knelt down: "Your Highness forgives your sins, and the slave is guilty!" ”
"Oh? What is the sin? King Chen had completely ignored her existence, and now she suddenly turned back and knelt on the ground, which really surprised King Chen.
Rong Yunxi got up and gently closed the door. Continue to play with edelweiss without any business.
Qiu Yan lowered her head and said: "The slave maid just thought of something, but in fact, the slave maid should have realized this matter and told His Highness a long time ago." It's just that the slave and maid were confused, and they didn't pay much attention to it before they thought of it. ”
"Don't worry, what's the matter, you get up and talk." King Chen.
Qiu Yan didn't dare to get up, probably because she was too anxious to say these words, and she didn't have the heart to get distracted. Said directly: "Slave maid...... Slaves...... The slave maid thought, in the middle of October, the lady ...... Madame is still menstruating. ”
King Chen's eyes sank, but he was not surprised.
"But...... But...... But the slave was not sure whether it was a menstrual affair or not. The slave saw that the lady had replaced the blood handkerchief for a day, and then it was gone. And Mrs. has never had many menstrual events, so on the blood cloth, I can't be sure if it's a menstrual event. It's just that...... But if it weren't for the menstrual event, where would the blood come from? And why do you need a blood handkerchief? ”
Speaking of such a thing as Yuexin, Qiu Yan was still a little embarrassed and blushed. But what he wanted to say couldn't be bad, and he continued: "The slave maid suddenly thought of this strange place, and she couldn't tell it, but she felt that she should also tell His Highness." The slave maid is confused, in fact, she should have come to ask for a meeting with His Highness. It's just that the lady has too many orders every day, and the slave and maid really forget about it. ”
can't let King Chen feel that she is deliberately helping Lu Caixi hide it.
Lu Caixi said that she was pregnant, but she found that Lu Caixi was using a blood cloth in the month when she was supposed not to receive a monthly letter, but she did not report such a serious matter, isn't that just collusion?
Now that His Highness asked her, he said that perhaps His Highness would feel that she had no sincerity in confessing.
If you want to be a good person, then do it to the end. At least he can stay in King Chen's mansion in the future. If you are a bad person, then you will have to get on a thief ship with Lu Caixi, and you must not betray her. But she had betrayed Rong Yunxi just now, that is to say, she chose to stand on His Highness's side and be a good person.
Therefore, she can only know everything and say everything, and she must make King Chen feel that she is loyal and has no intention of deceiving.
King Chen could tell that she was busy plucking herself, but he didn't put a little girl's mind on him. Regardless of whether Qiu Yan was in the same league with Lu Caixi before, he didn't bother to care. In fact, as long as he heard Lu Caixi changing clothes with Qiuyan on his back, it was enough for him to make a judgment.
"And after that? Is it coming this month? ”
Qiu Yan shook her head: "No, anyway, the slave didn't find out." ”
That's what she finds strange. If Lu Caixi is really not pregnant, then why, there is no monthly letter this month? It's a strange thing.
But even if Lu Caixi is really pregnant, His Royal Highness can't blame her for the recent events, right? Obviously, His Royal Highness called her over, not simply to care about the situation in their courtyard, but to ask what was going on with Lu Caixi for a while. She just told the truth about the strange situation, and it was not an exaggeration. When Her Highness didn't ask, she didn't take the initiative to frame her master, did she?
"Got it, stand down. Remember, don't tell your master what you said at Shotokuin Temple when you go back. I don't think you're so stupid either. King Chen said.
Qiu Yan hurriedly said; "Your Highness, rest assured, the slave will never talk nonsense. If Mrs. asked, the slave maid only said that His Royal Highness was asking about the situation of the slave and maid Xiang coming to the courtyard, and he was concerned about our Xiang coming to the courtyard. ”
King Chen nodded: "You are a smart girl." ”
He waved his hand and motioned for her to stand down.
Qiu Yan didn't say anything anymore, gave a salute to King Chen, and respectfully retreated.
Compared with the previous slow and hesitant steps, this time it was very fast, and he walked out of the room quickly.
went out of the room, but felt that this heart that had been hanging for days suddenly let go.
It doesn't matter if Lu Caixi is pregnant or not, as long as she can take herself out. so as not to be dragged to death by Lu Caixi.
With a long sigh of relief, he walked briskly back to Zhaodeokin.
This time, I have a lot of thanks to Mama Jin. It must be that Mama Jin found something strange in the Xianglai Courtyard and told His Highness, and His Highness asked. If it weren't for His Highness's inquiry, she wouldn't have been able to take herself out easily.
"Cai Xi's courage is really big." King Chen muttered.
Rong Yunxi smiled casually: "You can't listen to this girl's words, don't be so presumptuous." ”
"You...... Just say decent things", King Chen shook his head, "It's just the two of us in the room, Ai Fei, what are you worried about?" How do you think, just talk to this king, why avoid suspicion? ”
Hearing what King Chen said, Rong Yunxi felt aggrieved: "If I say anything bad about Caixi, wouldn't it seem that I am jealous?" Now, I just did my duty and persuaded you appropriately, but you think I don't treat you seriously? I really can't do it, I don't know what to do in this palace, in front of you. ”
If I tell the truth what I think about these concubines in the house, once or twice, you may not think anything wrong, but if this goes on for a long time, you will inevitably think that I am a little picky and long-tongued. I don't care about these things in the first place, so why do I have to say anything according to you? In the end, it hurt myself.
Rong Yunxi is not a person who loves to chew the root of her tongue, even if it is not to avoid suspicion, but just let her talk casually with an inconsequential person, she is not willing to speak.
But King Chen's attention was not on her complaint about the dilemma, but on the two words.
"Treat me really?" King Chen smiled, "So what does Concubine Ai mean is that in fact, Concubine Ai originally treated this king very seriously?" ”
Seeing the corners of King Chen's eyes and eyebrows, there was a lot of ambiguity. In that case, he almost came up to her, holding her chin and waiting for her to answer at a loss.
"Of course I treat you really", Rong Yunxi's face did not change, and said unhurriedly, "You and I are under the same roof, and we are grasshoppers on a rope, although there is no friendship between them, but the friendship is actually comparable to a sworn brother, right?" Gentlemen's friends naturally treat each other with sincerity and truth. ”
King Chen's original ambiguous face, not to mention how ugly it was at this time......
"Ahem...... "Ahem King Chen coughed embarrassedly, subconsciously, he naturally felt that he was being amorous. But just for such a moment of relaxation, I can't wait to give myself a big ear scraper!
Is he self-inflicted? It's obviously Rong Yunxi who is quibbling there! However, he was shocked by Yunxi's calm and indifferent appearance, and he messed up first.
It's really a wreck, a wreck!
It's also strange that the calm appearance of the tide is too intimidating.
"Don't talk about this", I have something to arrange in my heart, so naturally I don't have too much to joke, not to mention that I have just been defeated? So he changed the conversation, "Concubine Ai thinks that Caixi is fake pregnant this time, what is the purpose?" ”
Since King Chen had already concluded in his heart that Lu Caixi was pregnant, there was no need for Rong Yunxi to avoid anything.
Appropriate avoidance is to understand proportion, and if you avoid it too much, it will appear too deliberate and hypocritical.
Rong Yunxi smiled: "Let's compete for favor." But it's not necessarily just a competition for favor. ”
Lu Caixi was demoted to the position of a beauty by King Chen, and in Lu Caixi's opinion, it is likely that she was demoted because she exposed Bo Xinlan and made King Chen unhappy. So I was anxious to compete with Bo Xinlan. felt that Bo Xinlan was so favored because she was pregnant, so she also made a false impression that she was pregnant.
It's just that she was able to hide even Dr. Ju and Dr. Jiang from this illusion, which shows that she has really put a lot of effort into it.
If it's just to restore the status of beauty, it's really not.
Although Lu Caixi is not very smart, he is not completely brainless, and he will not do this kind of thing that only thinks of the beginning and does not think of the end.
But for this matter, what is the result she wants?
Really get a child to come over and stabilize the position? Unlikely. This is the blood of the chaotic royal family, and she doesn't have the guts. Therefore, Lu Caixi's calculation should not be to give birth to the child, but to "get rid of" the child halfway, who to rely on, and who to let come over to carry the black pot.
King Chen saw that Rong Yunxi still had something to say, so he waited quietly.
Hearing this, Rong Yunxi said: "Maybe she is looking for an opportunity to have a 'miscarriage' now, right?" And there are two people who are most likely to be unlucky in her miscarriage, one is me and the other is Concubine Bo. ”
King Chen smiled: "That's why this king said, this year's birthday, can't you and I pass ......."
Speaking of which, it's really a pity, and sighed: "It's all made trouble by this ignorant person." This king hates the woman who has a lot of things, but she wants to bump into this king's taboo. ”
In fact, he has always been merciful to these women in the house, and if it weren't for any unforgivable mistake, he would be willing to fight and turn a blind eye. What are you worried about with women? If there is a small fight, let them do it, just keep the overall situation in the house calm.
can Cai Xi do such a thing, but I'm afraid that sooner or later, this surface calm will be lost by her.
So this black sheep can't stay......
