Chapter 458: Bad Intentions
After listening to Chu Zhuangyan's words, Chu Jiaying knew that there was no room for turning around in this matter, whether she was willing or not, she had to go to the Northern Frontier Country.
Thinking of her future life in the Northern Frontier Country, Chu Jiaying felt heartache in her heart, Chu Zhuangyan looked at Chu Jiaying's expression, knowing that she was unwilling, so in order to make her comfortable, he comforted her with kind words.
"Don't worry, this time I will go to the Northern Frontier Country, I will definitely prepare a lot of dowry for you, so that you will become the most beautiful person, so that no one in the Northern Frontier Country will look down on you."
Although Chu Zhuangyan promised like this, Chu Jiaying was still very awkward in her heart. What if you have more dowry? After arriving in the Northern Frontier Country, it is far away from the Mingyue Kingdom, and no matter what happens, you can only bear it yourself, and there is no way to solve it at all.
"Thank you, Father." Although Chu Jiaying thought so, these words could only be buried in her heart.
"Why are you still kneeling here? Hurry up! After Chu Zhuangyan finished speaking, he found that Chu Jiaying was still kneeling in place, so he wanted to step forward to help her.
Chu Jiaying stepped back after seeing Chu Zhuangyan walking towards her: "Thank you father, my daughter can get up by herself." ”
Chu Zhuangyan was stunned for a moment and then withdrew his hand, he didn't expect Chu Jiaying's heart to have such a big opinion on him, but in order to keep Chu Ruoyi in Mingyue Kingdom, he could only do this.
"In that case, you should go back first, and I will send someone to tell you the specific things when the time comes."
"Yes, Father." Chu Jiaying nodded, stumbled out of the imperial study, and after she walked out of the door, the little palace maid who was waiting for her outside also saw her face.
"Your Royal Highness Princess, what did the emperor say to you?"
Chu Jiaying deliberately left the little palace maid outside when she went in, so the current little palace maid can be said to be confused.
"It's nothing, let's go back first!"
Chu Jiaying has been sitting in the room in a daze since she returned to her palace, and when the little palace maid saw her like this, she didn't dare to come forward and rashly persuade her, but silently put the refreshments on the table and left.
When it was almost dark, Chu Jiaying suddenly stood up and decided to go out for a walk.
"Princess, where are you going?"
After seeing her move, the little palace maid hurriedly asked, Chu Jiaying has been in a bad mood today, and she was afraid that Chu Jiaying would not be able to think about it.
"I'll walk around, don't follow me." Chu Jiaying let the little palace maid stay where she was, and she walked around the palace.
Although she had done a lot of arrogant and domineering things before, no matter what, she still felt that this Mingyue Country was better than any other place, and when she thought that she would have to go to the Northern Frontier Country to suffer in a short time, she felt a sadness for no reason.
After walking a few steps, Chu Jiaying felt tired, so she sat down by the railing to rest, and at this time she heard the conversation of several palace people.
"Have you heard about that incident with Lord Wei? It is said that it has been hastily buried. ”
"What's the matter, Lord Wei?"
The two people who spoke were two little eunuchs on duty, and they were a little bored in the middle of the night, so they began to talk about what had happened recently, and the topic somehow ran to Wei Mingjie, who had just passed away.
Hearing them mention Wei Mingjie, Chu Jiaying also pricked up her ears and listened carefully. She also knew some about the news of Wei Mingjie's death, but the specific details were a little vague, and she didn't pay attention to it at first.
"Don't you even know about it? It was the fact that Lord Wei was beaten to death in Dali Temple. ”
"He was killed in Dali Temple, who would dare to do this to him? Isn't Lord Wei from Dali Temple? And it wasn't that he was ...... because of illness."
"Of course, I can only say that I have passed away from illness, and the emperor has suppressed this matter, but I know that this matter is not so simple at all." One of the little eunuchs said very proudly.
After hearing them talk about the real cause of Wei Mingjie's death, Chu Jiaying's heart moved, she had heard that Master Wei had died of a sudden illness, but she didn't expect that there was still a trace of inside information here.
"Then how did Lord Wei die?"
The words of the little eunuch successfully attracted the attention of the partner next to him, and when he heard that the cause of Wei Mingjie's death might not be so simple, he immediately became excited.
"That's what I heard from those fathers-in-law, and I tell you, you must not tell anyone."
The little eunuch who spoke paused and looked left and right, as if to see if there was anything else.
"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone, tell me quickly." His partner rubbed his hands a little impatiently, "Don't be suspicious, there are only two of us around here, and there can't be anyone else." ”
"Actually, Lord Wei was beaten to death by King Yan."
"What?" After hearing the news, the little eunuch subconsciously exclaimed. After that, he realized that he was too excited and quickly covered his mouth.
"Shhhh Didn't I tell you to keep quiet? ”
"But this matter is too amazing, and I am also a subconscious move."
"Forget it," the eunuch who spoke nodded, "Actually, I was almost the same as you when I first learned the news, and I couldn't believe that this matter could be done by King Yan." ”
"Yes, how could it be done by King Yan? Hasn't he been helping the emperor in the palace? Why do you run outside? Beat Master Wei to death again? ”
"I don't know about this matter, anyway, Lord Wei's death is related to King Yan, no one should dare to joke about this matter, right?"
The voices of the two of them gradually lowered, but Chu Jiaying, who was secretly eavesdropping, had a turbulent wave in her heart, but she didn't expect that there was such a relationship in it.
Wei Mingjie was beaten to death by Chu Ruojie, and Li Luobing had a good relationship with Wei Mingjie after losing her memory, if she learned that this matter was related to Chu Ruojie, would she have an estrangement from Chu Ruojie in her heart?
After thinking about it, Chu Jiaying decided to find an opportunity to tell Li Luobing about this matter, she couldn't let Li Luobing, the princess, sit so steadily.
Since she became a princess, her status has skyrocketed, but she has ended up with a friendly end, no matter how Chu Jiaying thinks about it, she feels that this matter is because of Li Luobing.
Early the next morning, Chu Jiaying ran to Li Luobing's palace.
"Princess Jincheng is here again." Qiao Su hurriedly told Li Luobing the news.
"It's okay, let her in!"
Li Luobing didn't have much disgust with this matter, he was really bored in the palace these days, Concubine De didn't know what was going on, and she didn't see anyone for a few days.
In addition to listening to those grandmothers all day long, she sat in the palace in a daze, and there was no one to talk to, Chu Jiaying's arrival just relieved her loneliness, as soon as Chu Jiaying entered the palace, her eyes began to turn red after seeing Li Luobing.
"What's wrong? What happened to Her Royal Highness? ”
Li Luobing's words were out of a normal concern, but she didn't expect that after Chu Jiaying heard her words, tears poured out like a broken embankment.
"I don't think I'm in my father's eyes at all now." Chu Jiaying cried as she spoke.
Li Luobing, who was next to her, was a little embarrassed after hearing this topic, although she is now nominally a sister to Chu Jiaying, Chu Zhuangyan is still the emperor of Mingyue Kingdom to her, not her father.
Now Chu Zhuangyan is very good to her, and at the same time snubs Chu Jiaying, which makes her a little dilemma, if she persuades, it seems that she is showing off, and if she doesn't persuade, it is impossible to let Chu Jiaying cry like this.
"No, you are the emperor's daughter, who else will there be without you in the eyes of the emperor?" Li Luobing was stunned for a moment, and then could only comfort Chu Jiaying.
Qiao Su next to her gave Li Luobing a look after seeing Chu Jiaying's appearance, she hadn't forgotten what Chu Jiaying had done to the princess before, nor did she forget what kind of person Chu Jiaying was.
Now that she looks like this, she is nothing more than acting, and the more Qiao Su thinks about it, the more she feels that she should remind Li Luobing.
But Li Luobing was not alert after seeing Qiao Su's eyes, because she had almost forgotten about the previous things, at least during this time, Chu Jiaying had not done anything that she couldn't stand it.
After seeing Li Luobing so indifferent, Qiao Su had no choice but to observe secretly, lest Li Luobing be deceived.
Chu Jiaying was only bored after hearing Li Luobing's words, but on the surface, she still pretended to hold back her tears.
"My sister is right, my father may be like this because he is busy with government affairs."
After seeing that she had finally persuaded Chu Jiaying, Li Luobing breathed a sigh of relief, if she kept crying here, she didn't have any choice.
"Is my sister still used to staying in the palace during this time?" After Chu Jiaying finished crying pitifully, she began to chat with Li Luobing about family life.
The last time she came out to see her, she had already asked the same question, and this time she asked the same question, Li Luobing knew that Chu Jiaying was actually looking for something to chat with her.
Out of politeness, she still replied to Chu Jiaying: "It's okay." ”
"I wonder if my sister heard the news of His Royal Highness King Yan in the palace?" After Chu Jiaying looked at Li Luobing's eyes, she opened her mouth tentatively.
She wanted to know what kind of reaction would this Amnesiac Princess Yan have when she mentioned Chu Ruoyao at this time?
Li Luobing didn't expect Chu Jiaying to say so directly, her expression changed and she shook her head: "I haven't been particularly concerned about the matter of King Yan, why does my sister ask like this?" ”
At the same time, Li Luobing's heart became vigilant, and whenever it came to Chu Ruoyi's questioning, she was more or less defensive in her heart.
"It's nothing, I'm just asking, I thought my sister could hear some news about my brother in the palace, after all, we are a family, aren't we?"
