Chapter 70: Showing Affection
"Are you afraid that the second brother will change his mind?" King Chen seems to be very interested in her feelings.
For King Chen's exploration, Rong Yunxi has no disgust. On the contrary, because he knew that he understood her somewhat, he was willing to talk to him like this.
"After all, on the day of the wedding, I hurt him like that...... What's more, even if he doesn't change his mind, he can't resist this troubled world. At this age, and with such an identity, he always has to marry a wife and take a concubine...... It's just weird, it's fate. Rong Yunxi said.
"Concubine Ai......" King Chen's words suddenly deepened, "Don't ask about the world, just in terms of your own mind, do you want to renew your relationship with him?" ”
"Naturally, as long as he doesn't leave, my heart will not give up." Rong Yunxi said very surely.
But only if it ...... He doesn't leave.
King Chen smiled and sighed: "Wanxi, sometimes I really envy you......"
Rong Yunxi turned his head and looked at him, with an inquiring meaning in his eyes.
King Chen explained: "You are so firm with your loved ones......
"What? Isn't Your Highness firm? Rong Yunxi asked.
"This king also wants to be firm, but it's just ......"
King Chen straightened up and looked at Rong Yunxi, with a very serious look in his eyes: "Concubine Ai, this king wants to ask your opinion on this matter." Do you think Qin Yingyue knows about this? ”
Rong Yunxi didn't want to lie to him, so he said his opinion truthfully: "I know." According to the concubine's humble opinion, Hui Meiren colluded with His Royal Highness the Prince. Since we entered the Prince's Mansion, Hui Meiren has been deliberately seducing His Royal Highness to be emotional and chaotic. ”
King Chen looked at her for a while, got up and smiled bitterly: "Ai Concubine, you always speak like this, it is really difficult for this king to think soberly." ”
Rong Yunxi smiled and said, "But in His Highness's heart, I still don't want to be sober." Isn't it? ”
"Yes...... King Chen looked out the window and sighed softly, "This king doesn't want to be sober." Because to be sober, it is equivalent to denying the whole period of your youth and past......"
"This king doesn't want to believe that Yue'er will be such a calculating person. The moon in the memory of this king, there are arrogant bones, very noble, even if she has no love for this king in her heart, but she is always a close friend of this king, with her temperament, she is impossible to harm this king. Not to mention, she still uses herself as bait and takes advantage of the king's love for her......"
Looking at the back of King Chen standing with his hands in his hands, at this moment, Rong Yunxi felt that this back was so lonely that it was distressing.
Born in the royal family, there is very little warmth that can be experienced in life. But King Chen is also a human after all, no matter how deep his scheming is, he is always a flesh and blood person. It is human instinct to desire warmth, trust, and peace of mind.
In those lonely and lonely years, Qin Yingyue was afraid that he was the only person who could make him feel warmth, be trusted, and feel stable...... But now, it is necessary to make him soberly realize that everything in the past is just his illusion. Wouldn't that be too cruel?
Rong Yunxi got up, stood behind him, and said softly: "Your Highness, in fact, it is not allowed for concubines to look at people. And the concubine has read too many books since she was a child, and when she encounters something, she will inevitably subconsciously apply all the strategies in the book, and will always think of simple things as complicated and good people as bad. ”
King Chen was still looking out the window. After being silent for a long time, he suddenly smiled, and turned to look at her: "Aifei, you are starting to care about this king, have you found out yourself?" ”
Rong Yunxi was slightly stunned, but then, he said calmly: "The concubine naturally cares about His Royal Highness, after all, the concubine is Princess Chen, and the honor and disgrace of the concubine are all tied to His Royal Highness." ”
This is not what the king is referring to...... Aifei, you know it in your own heart, but you're just quibbling. King Chen patted her on the shoulder and sighed softly.
While he was talking, the slaves and maids who were setting the meal had already arrived outside the door.
Yunshang also came over to serve, and asked softly: "Your Highness, Niangniang, can you set the meal?" ”
"Swing in." King Chen commanded.
After the order, he covered his stomach and muttered: "Why are you so grinding today?" They are all hungry for this king. ”
Yunshang took the slaves and maids to set the meal, and said with a smile: "I heard from the people in the kitchen courtyard that half an hour ago, they came over to ask if they were setting the meal, but there was no one in the Zhaode Courtyard. They thought that breakfast would not be passed this morning, and the food did not pay attention to the heat. Just in the early summer, I went to the kitchen to deliver food, and they had to do it in a hurry. ”
King Chen nodded and asked, "What time is it?" ”
"Back to Your Highness, when I first arrived." Yunshang Road.
"It's all time? This morning is busy, forget the time......" King Chen had a smile hidden in the corner of his mouth.
Yunshang had already heard about the prince and the princess sleeping in the hibiscus and waking up in the morning to play in the water, and now seeing the gentle smile on the corner of King Chen's mouth, she knew that His Royal Highness was probably reminiscing about this morning. For a while, this heart was unbearable......
The women he favors are changed one after another, and he likes every beauty when she is being favored. But this time, it's different.
She can't say what the difference is, but she feels that His Royal Highness's treatment of the princess is different from those flowers and plants who never care about it.
Can...... It's funny to think about, no matter what His Royal Highness thinks about the princess, what does it have to do with her? She was just a servant girl who had never been in his eyes. Even if you don't like the princess, can you still get her turn?
Rong Yunxi sat down beside King Chen, and King Chen knew that Rong Yunxi didn't like to have people from the palace serving around him when he was eating, so he ordered: "Yunshang, busy with your go." ”
"Yes." Yunshang answered.
After breakfast, Rong Yunxi was going to copy the book for King Chen, but King Chen pulled her and said, "This matter is not urgent, we have more important things to do." ”
"What's the matter?" Rong Yunxi asked.
"I'll accompany you back to your parents' house." King Chen.
"Your Highness, the concubine is not in a hurry to go back to her parents' house......" Rong Yunxi has been pulled out of the door by King Chen.
"But this king misses his father-in-law...... "King Chen grabbed Rong Yunxi's wrist, undoubtedly.
Rong Yunxi had to be dragged out of Zhaode Courtyard by her all the way to the stable.
After calling Feng Si to set up the carriage, King Chen took her out of the back door. Hearing King Chen's real order: "Go to the General's Mansion." ”
Rong Yunxi naturally didn't think that King Chen really missed his father-in-law, but in this sensitive period, King Chen had to go to the General's Mansion, and Rong Yunxi couldn't figure it out for a while.
Turning over the high wall, King Chen lifted the curtain and said, "Old Feng, let's not go directly to the General's Mansion." Take the king and the princess to the bazaar, lay us down, and wait. ”
"Yes, Your Highness." Lao Feng answered.
What is this for?
Rong Yunxi looked at King Chen in some surprise.
When he arrived at the market, King Chen got out of the car first and stretched out his hand to pick up Rong Yunxi.
Because it's in the bazaar, maybe it's also because ...... Get used to it. Rong Yunxi naturally handed him his hand, and he helped him get out of the carriage.
King Chen took her hand and pulled it like this, not letting go.
Rong Yunxi struggled slightly, but King Chen was very determined. King Chen took her hand and strode through the market, which inevitably attracted the people to stop and watch.
"It's His Royal Highness King Chen and the princess Niangniang......"
"Huh? Didn't you say that the princess was ruined yesterday? Why did His Royal Highness King Chen take his mother to the market today? ”
"You don't know yet, do you? Last night, Lord Fu Yin interrogated the arrested bandits overnight, and they said that they didn't dare to touch the princess. ”
"Really? I just came out, and I really didn't hear about it...... No wonder! Otherwise, if the princess was really ruined, how could His Royal Highness King Chen hold the princess's hand like this? ”
"Isn't it? It's too late to dislike it......"
Hearing the whispers in the crowd, Rong Yunxi understood King Chen's intentions......
"Aifei, let's go to Fu Bao Zhai to buy some cakes for my father-in-law? This Fu Bao Zhai's dim sum is better than that in the imperial dining room! King Chen pointed to Fu Bao Zhai not far ahead, still holding her hand, and asked as if no one was around.
"Concubine, thank you, Your Highness for thinking about your father." Rong Yunxi said with a smile.
King Chen took her hand and went to Fu Bao Zhai.
Rong Yunxi heard a voice of envy from the crowd......
What the people said, naturally, was-
"His Royal Highness is so kind to the princess!"
"Your Royal Highness and the princess are really affectionate, it's really enviable!"
"Seeing that His Royal Highness King Chen is so good to the princess, it can be seen that Niangniang's body must not be insulted."
"But no, if you want to say that our princess is really a lucky person, she has her own nature......"
Hearing these whispering words, and being held by him so preciously, Rong Yunxi's heart was full of gratitude......
Even if she knew that he cherished his affection so much, he was putting on a show, but she also knew that the purpose of this show was not for her good?
He didn't want her to be criticized and suspected of her innocence in the future, so he deliberately came to the market immediately after the incident, and used his practical actions to block the gossip that might have spread; Use his cherishment to show her innocence.
was led by him all the way, and Rong Yunxi actually handed over his honor and disgrace to him with confidence. She knew he could protect her......
After buying some pastries for her father in Fu Bao Zhai and buying some braised meat from Zhenweitang on the side, King Chen took her hand and went to the carriage.
The people who had stopped to watch the shopping also dispersed. After all, it is the root of the imperial city, and the princes and nobles have seen too much on weekdays, in fact, if it weren't for yesterday's incident, and King Chen was so unscrupulous holding her hand on the street, the people actually didn't care too much.
Rong Yunxi followed King Chen into the car, and not far behind him, among the pedestrians, there was a person's gaze, following them closely. It wasn't until the carriage left the market and went around to the General's Mansion that this gaze slowly retracted.
"Miss......" The girl on the side called Qin Yingxuan lightly.
