XXXVIII. Unwillingness

The prince said that he wanted me to be happy, and when I listened to these words, I was shocked, and there was a faint pain in a soft place. His figure Xiao Xiao stood in the cold garden, his long silhouette added a touch of sadness, he was so sincere, and I felt full of guilt inexplicably.

The two of them were silent, he only stared at me, with a hint of loneliness in his eyes, and I was forced to retreat again and again and just wanted to escape: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is busy with court affairs, so the concubines will not bother." ”

I got up and wanted to leave, but he reached out to grab me, and when his big hand grabbed my wrist, I was startled, and bounced up like a frightened rabbit, but I didn't break free for half a minute, and I had to look around in shock, but I found that I don't know when, the two of us were left alone in the garden.

Even so, I had a cold face: "Let go!" ”

The prince hurriedly let go of his hand as if he had come back to his senses. I looked at the prince coldly and then saluted slightly: "The concubine retires!" ”

I turned around and left, I had always thought of myself as an indifferent person, in the past, I could do it for money, but now, I just want to live well, it's just that for the first time, I really feel the heartache! However, I know that indifference, for me and the prince, is the best choice now.

"If that day, the plum garden plays the flute, and the person you meet is not you, how good!" I had only taken two steps when he whispered behind me, his voice muffled.

I froze, took a deep breath, and walked back on.

"Or, I asked my father for you that day, and you ...... Would you be willing to ......! After a pause, I turned my head angrily, but saw a faint sadness in his eyes.

My lips moved, and finally I came out clearly, simply and decisively: "No! ”

"Huh...... Actually, I already knew! But I still stupidly want to ask! The prince smiled bitterly, and then sat back on the stone bench in a daze.

I turned around and ran quickly, my face suddenly felt warm, but I didn't have time to care, until I came out of the imperial garden, I touched it casually, it was tears, I stopped suddenly, raised my head, and forced the tears back little by little.

No, these two words, at the moment they are spoken, feel like a thousand gold. Hehe...... What kind of person is the emperor, as his son, how can the crown prince not understand.

Since he issued an order to point me to Zhu Di, it is impossible to change his mind, not to mention, I am the eldest daughter of the first hero of the founding of the country? According to his character, he would only think that the crown prince wanted to win over the courtiers, establish a party, and disrupt the court. If so, I definitely wouldn't want to, because it wouldn't be worth it.

Back at the Spring and Harmony Palace, I looked at the gloomy sky and felt depressed. Will I spend all the time in this palace? Walk to the white head with someone you don't love? It's even more terrifying to think about!

However, being born as Xu Da's eldest daughter, what else can I do? My every move involves the lives of a family. Unless I die, I will not be able to escape this flowery cage.

"Miss, this is the white-feathered parrot sent by the queen, look at it, it's fun!" Zhi'er handed me a golden cage with a happy face.

I took it and looked closely, and its white feathers were indeed rare to see. The cage made of pure gold was very heavy in his hand.

I muttered, "It turns out that I have become a parrot in a golden cage unconsciously!" ”

I opened the cage door and said softly, "Little parrot, you have created a big life, let's go, go to the wider sky!" ”

"Miss, this is ...... Mother's gift! Zhi'er looked at my actions and couldn't help but feel a little regretful. I hurriedly glanced back at her and said:

"It's okay, when the time comes, I'll have my own rhetoric!"

Unfortunately, the door opened halfway, but the parrot was still staring at me with wide eyes in the cage, and I suddenly had the illusion of being nosy. I reached out to pull it, but it was so far away that it wouldn't come out.

I frowned, could it have gotten used to the golden cage, or had it become attached to it? Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel disheartened, could time really change everything?

In desperation, I angrily closed the cage door, since it didn't go, then it had to withstand everyone's teasing. I spent a long day teasing this parrot, which was indeed very spiritual, and soon learned to say: stupid!

At night, I was bored, so I went to bed early, but I didn't feel sleepy. Tossing and turning in the middle of the night, suddenly the carved silk screen window sounded slightly, and then in the wind, I smelled a familiar smell of medicine, I was startled, and then shouted in a deep voice: "Someone! ”

"What do you command?" The palace maid who was waiting in the pavilion immediately stepped forward.

"Command everyone to go down! You are here, this palace is uncomfortable, you can't sleep! ”

"Yes!" When the sound of the palace people's shredded footsteps gradually disappeared, the screen window creaked, and a slender figure fell lightly.

"Zijin, why are you here today?" I put on my cloak and walked to the table and looked at the visitor with some surprise, Zijin was wearing a white robe, a silk belt around his waist, and a jade crown on his head, and the jade tree stood in front of me in the wind. He stretched his eyebrows, looked at me with his hands, and said:

"Sister has something on her mind? Have you not fallen asleep at this hour? ”

"I've been scared of sleep for the past few days, and I really don't feel sleepy at all." I reached out and poured him a cup of tea, and he thanked him again and again:

"Thank you, sister!"

I see that he is covered in the cold wind, he must have been outside for a long time!

"It's cold outside right now! Next time you want to come, come during the day. ”

"I thought so, but when I arrived here from Fengyang, it wouldn't be dark." Zijin took a sip of tea and quickly put one hand on my pulse, then pondered for a moment, and then smiled slightly:

"It's almost good, but the body is still weak, and you can eat something warm from tomorrow!"

I nodded slightly and asked, "Have you been to Fengyang?" ”

"Yes!"

He ...... His poisonous ...... "I didn't want to ask, but since Zijin came on purpose, let's ask!"

"It's been poisoned so deeply that I can't get rid of it completely." Zijin frowned and said.

Can't get rid of it completely? That......

"Is there another way?" I asked in horror, I knew that I couldn't cure the root cause, it was better not to cure it, and if I wanted to go crazy, I would be completely outright. Now that he is like this, he will toss me from time to time in the future, so don't I have it?

"I'm afraid not!" Zijin shook his head, and I was completely defeated, muttering:

"If he commits domestic violence in the future, then I'm not finished?"

"It's not a complete removal, but it's not a big deal, as long as you don't experience major irritations, nothing is a problem."

Too much stimulation? I think of Zhu Di scraping 3,000 palace maids alive in history because the favorite concubine passed away and the palace maids fornicated. This is a big thrill, isn't it?

Alas, I can only accept it at this point. But I remember Zijin once said that the person who poisoned him seemed to be also in Fengyang.

"The poisoner......" Before my words fell, Zijin immediately answered:

"It's settled!"

I looked at Zijin in amazement, he really covered the sky with one hand, so many people, in such a short period of time, found out, it's really amazing.

"That Zhu Di ......"

"He didn't notice it!" Ha, why do you think Zijin is a roundworm in my stomach, he knows everything I think.

Seeing that I was looking at him blankly, he smiled lightly: "You are all written on your face!" In fact, the matter is very simple, I scattered some laxatives in the food at night, and on the second day, I had diarrhea collectively, of course His Highness will investigate thoroughly, of course, all the cooks there have been replaced, and I can just arrange for people to go in, after all, the antidote still needs to be eaten by His Highness on time. ”

"Oh!" Sounds like it's really simple.

"Since you are no longer in trouble, and the prince's poison has also been resolved, then there is nothing to do with me, I will go back to Moon Valley first!" Zijin looked at me thinking like a good student for a long time, and shook his head a little funny.

"Huh? Just gone? ”

"Well, sister, let's have a good rest! I'm still empty! ”

"Okay!"

Looking at Zijin's neat skills, he suddenly felt that practicing martial arts was actually really good!
