Chapter 4: Choosing Another Way
King Chen sighed lightly, thinking that if he didn't tell the truth, he wouldn't be able to deceive this girl, so he simply spread it out and said: "It's simple, because the woman I love deeply is by the prince's side, and the prince is thinking about you, so if I can marry you, it can be regarded as avenging myself." ”
Rong Yunxi remembered listening to the gossip in early summer, it seemed that King Chen had loved the concubine in the Prime Minister's Mansion for many years, but for some reason, that woman later followed the prince, so it seems that King Chen wants to marry himself, and he really said it in the past.
"How? Is this reason enough? Seeing that Rong Wanxi didn't speak, Feng Beichen asked.
"His Royal Highness King Chen, if you can rescue my father, I can repay you as much as I want, can you not get married?" Rong Yunxi can give up anything, but she is not willing to bet on the happiness of her life, she wants to live quietly all her life, and she doesn't want to guard this cage-like Kyoto at all.
"In addition to this, this king really has nothing to be interested in, it's not early, I propose to think about it, if you really don't want to go to the prince's mansion, then go to the palace of the king of Chen to find me and give me an answer."
After saying that, King Chen turned around and left......
Only Rong Yunxi, who was in a complicated mood, was left......
Whether it is the crown prince or the king of Chen? None of them are her beloved, the one she likes, and his smile is as warm as the sun.
The man she liked was a hero......
When I returned to the General's Mansion, it was already noon.
"Miss, are you alright?" Early summer immediately catches up.
Rong Yunxi shook his head in despair......
"Miss, you haven't eaten yet, I'll ask Zhiqiu to go and order the kitchen to get something to eat."
"No, I'm not hungry." Rong Yunxi sat down on the chair decadently and asked softly, "Is there any news from the Criminal Department?" ”
"Yes, yes, but ......?" Early Summer's face is not quite right, and he looks like he wants to speak and stops.
Rong Yunxi glanced up at the maid, a little helpless, "In early summer, when did you become sluggish, you don't look like you anymore." ”
After hearing this, Chu Xia bit his lip and said, "There is news from the Criminal Department that the old man has been convicted of treason, and he will be beheaded outside the noon gate in seven days." ”
"What?" Rong Yunxi couldn't sit still anymore, and got up with a swish, and his whole face turned pale.
She lost her mother since she was a child, and only one father depended on her, and her father did not continue the song for her for many years, and she did not even have a concubine, and she had to take her with her even when she went to the border, and now she is about to enjoy her old age, but she will be beheaded to show the public, how can this be accepted.
Rong Yunxi only felt that it was dark in front of him, his whole body was shaky, and he fell into the chair......
"Miss, miss, what's wrong with you?" Early Summer was so frightened that she immediately hugged Miss.
"I'm fine." These three words, Rong Yunxi said weakly.
"In early summer, take out that colorful Luo skirt for me, I'm going to go out."
"Miss, you've been running around all day, let's go out tomorrow." Early summer looked at the master distressedly.
"I don't want to delay for a moment, I have to rescue my father." Rong Yunxi knew that as long as she was one minute late, her father might have to suffer a little more.
Afterwards, Rong Yunxi drank a glass of water, changed into a colorful Luo skirt and got into the carriage.
"Miss, where are we going?" The coachman of the General's Mansion asked cautiously.
After being silent for a long time, Rong Yunxi said slowly: "King Chen's Mansion." ”
Yes, choose one of the two, she finally chose King Chen, whether King Chen is to take revenge on the prince, or to anger Qin Yingyue, it doesn't matter what the motive is, the important thing is that there is no love between them, so it's best, maybe when you get tired of seeing each other in the future, you can also give her a letter of resignation, and then it will still be free, but the prince is different, not to mention how the prince is a person, once the prince inherits the unification in the future, she is also a concubine, and it will be difficult to get out at that time, for the harem concubines, The final destination is either the imperial tomb or the cold palace.
Rong Yunxi is smart, she weighed the pros and cons, and decided to agree to King Chen's proposal.
Inside King Chen's Mansion
Feng Beichen was not a little surprised when he saw Rong Yunxi, he seemed to have expected Rong Yunxi to come.
"I've thought about it, I promise your conditions, you can save my dad quickly."
"Okay." Feng Beichen agreed to be extremely happy.
"Then I'll go first, and when my dad comes out, I'll keep my promise."
"Don't worry, your father will definitely come out unharmed tomorrow morning, Rong Yunxi, stay with me to ......." Before Feng Beichen's words were finished, Rong Yunxi frowned: "His Royal Highness King Chen, I have already promised to marry you, can't you wait so much?" I'm still a woman who hasn't left the cabinet now, and if I spend the night here, even if I become Princess Chen in the future, I will be gossiped, and you will be disgraced at that time. ”
King Chen was stunned for a moment, and then smiled heartily, "Spend the night?" You're thinking too much, I mean, you can stay and have dinner with me, and celebrate our happy cooperation. ”
When Rong Yunxi heard that she had misunderstood, her cheeks couldn't help but turn red, and she was very embarrassed.
Although she didn't have the heart to eat here, King Chen had already promised to rescue her father, so she still didn't want to be too embarrassed.
In the end, Rong Yunxi stayed with Feng Beichen for dinner.
On the other side, the people from the Prince's Mansion were already anxious, and he thought that Rong Yunxi would definitely come, because this was her only way out.
But he didn't expect that Rong Yunxi had already gambled his fate on another man, and that person was not him.
Even though he is the pride of the sky, there are women who can think of it but can't get it.
At this moment, the woman's brisk footsteps sounded......
The prince's face was full of joy, and when he raised his head, he saw his own maid, and he was immediately overjoyed.
"Your Highness, it's time for dinner."
"Get out."
The prince was inexplicably angry, so frightened that the entire mansion did not dare to breathe, for fear that this lord would anger him.
The night was dark, and seeing that Rong Yunxi hadn't come yet, the prince couldn't bear it anymore, and said coldly, "Rong Yunxi, don't you give you a chance, I'll let you kneel down and beg me to get on you tonight." ”
Early the next morning
The prince had just gotten up, and the butler hurried to report it; "Your Highness, General Rong has been released from prison."
When the prince heard this, his eyelids jumped, "Who allowed him to get out of prison?" ”
"It is said that ...... It was the Empress Dowager's personal message. ”
"Impossible, how could the Imperial Grandmother interfere in this matter?" The prince obviously didn't believe it, although the queen mother was in a high position, she had lived in the deep palace for many years, and she didn't even participate in the selection of concubines, let alone the government.
"The minions heard...... It was the love between His Royal Highness King Chen and the Queen Mother. ”
"What? Is it Feng Beichen? At this moment, the prince's face was extremely gloomy.
