Chapter 112: A dutiful stand-in
After the person was dragged away, Asakura was still so angry that her chest rose and fell, and the green tendons in her temples came out.
Sakura stroked her forehead with her hand and took a step back, just hitting a strong chest.
Asakura turned her head, and it turned out to be Wei Zelan.
Wei Zelan soothed in his usual soft voice: "If the people below don't do well, just deal with it, Your Highness's noble body, don't be angry with your body."
Hearing Wei Zelan's gentle and soothing voice, Asakura instantly turned from a fire-breathing dragon into a sheep, and asked in a coquettish voice, "Zelan, you have also seen the nineteenth sister, you say, is she good-looking, or am I good-looking?"
Wei Zelan was only stunned for a moment, and then replied with a smile: "His Royal Highness Hua Luo is beautiful, but he is young in the end, so it is inevitable that he will be a little immature, and His Royal Highness is naturally beautiful, with even flesh and bones, looking back and smiling, it is a unique beauty that is mixed with differences."
Hearing this answer, Asakura was obviously very satisfied, chuckled, drew a circle with her fingers on Wei Zelan's chest, and said coquettishly, "I don't believe it, don't you men like tender?"
"Your Highness, Zeeland's heart can be learned from heaven and earth."
At this time, a servant walked up with a box in his hand: "Your Highness, this is what the crown prince handed over to you, she said, let you do it yourself."
Sakura took the box and opened it to see that it was the white jade bracelet she had taken a few days ago.
Sakura picked up the bracelet and looked at it for a moment, then put the bracelet back on the box with a bang, a shocking sound.
Sakura didn't know whether to cry or laugh, and her tone was mocking: "I didn't expect this thing to fall into the hands of the nineteenth sister, no wonder she didn't come to the door once in ten thousand years, but today she came uninvited for some reason."
Wei Zelan recognized this bracelet as Asakura's favorite object: "This pair of bracelets is not His Highness's favorite pair on weekdays, and His Highness also treats it as such?"
Sakura's eyes were moist, she looked up at the sky, and sniffed: "This is the most valuable thing in the main hall, and the main hall has been fighting for a long time before deciding to take it as a pawn, Zelan, do you know how long the Thirteen Princes' Mansion can last as a pair of bracelets?" Three months, three full months of food and clothing, so you know how much it's worth."
"To tell you the truth, for several days in a row, I couldn't sleep well at night, and every time I dreamed that the queen mother knew about it, summoned me to the palace and counted me hard, and by the way, gave me to a certain powerful minister, so that she could encircle the court."
"I really didn't count that this bracelet fell on the nineteenth sister by mistake, I think it is a thing that is a treasure of tens of millions, it is a gadget for people, if you say don't want it, you don't want it, if you say give it away, you will give it away, it's not because she is rich, and people like us are not in the same world at all."
Wei Zeze looked at Asakura Sakura's appearance and tried to comfort: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince may just have a good heart."
"Kind? She just loosened her feet for an ant, the queen mother has always been ruthless, in order to achieve her own goals to do everything, the nineteenth sister has become closer and closer to the queen mother over the years, there is no absolute friendship and affection in her heart, now to appreciate a date, maybe it will be a knife in the future."
"It's all in her mind, I'm just a fish to be slaughtered on a board."
It was only in front of Wei Zelan that Asakura would say these heartfelt words.
Wei Zelan thought for a moment: "Why is His Royal Highness and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince both princesses, but they .........?"
The difference in treatment is too great, it is simply the Antarctic and the Arctic, a rich and rival country, and the assets can not be built.
It is unbelievable that it is a problem to maintain one's own expenses and rely on pawn jewelry to survive.
Asakura's tone was dyed with a layer of coldness: "It's not that the queen mother is eccentric, the ten fingers are long and short, but the queen mother is not an ordinary eccentricity."
"I still remember when I was a child, there was a local prince who paid tribute to a batch of new things, I forgot what it was, anyway, it was very strange, unheard of, unseen things, our sisters liked it very much, we all wanted that thing, but because the nineteenth sister liked it, the queen mother put it
I gave all those things to the nineteenth sister, and she didn't think about us at all."
"Another time, the tenth sister and I went to a wisteria flower path in the palace to pick flowers, and we were having a good time, when the nineteenth sister suddenly came out and swore like a proud peacock***, saying that this is her territory, let's go quickly, I was angry and argued with her for a few words, but she pushed her to the ground, and hit a gravel on her forehead, almost disfigured."
"After the queen mother knew about this, she just reprimanded the nineteenth sister lightly, and then let the nineteenth sister go back, and punished me and the tenth sister severely, and there are many things like this, once we have a conflict with the nineteenth sister, the queen mother only indulges the nineteenth sister's temperament, does not punish her, only punishes us."
"Later, everyone left the palace one after another to build a mansion on their own, and they also got their own share of assets, and the queen mother took the nineteenth sister back from Yanzhou, and also transferred all the assets that she had worked hard to step by step to the nineteenth sister's name."
"All?" Wei Zelan's light-colored eyes looked very indifferent, revealing a hint of disbelief.
"Yes, that's all, as we all know, there was no precedent for a woman to be the emperor in the Apocalypse Kingdom before the Queen Mother became the emperor, and the Queen Mother relied on her own ability to climb up step by step, from having nothing at the beginning, to finally breaking the secular concept and becoming the first female emperor of the Apocalypse Kingdom."
"During this period, the queen mother developed a lot of industries in order to recruit soldiers and horses, and now all of them are in the hands of the nineteenth sister. It can be said that what the nineteenth sister is holding in her hands now is the hard work of the queen mother who has worked hard for most of her life, she is not rich, who is rich?"
"However, I just heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Majesty are on the same page, and the relationship is not harmonious." Wei Zelan didn't understand it even more.
Sakura snorted coldly: "Man is an animal that can never be completely satisfied, and if you have this, you want to get that, but how can there be anything perfect in the world? The nineteenth sister felt that the queen mother treated her badly, but she didn't understand that the queen mother could treat her like this, and she was already envious of many of us."
"Besides, the nineteenth sister now dares to wantonly contradict the queen mother and fight against the queen mother, but the queen mother herself is used to it, no wonder others."
"Then in His Highness's heart, what do you think of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" Wei Zelan asked.
"It's just a little jealous." Asakura took a handkerchief and printed around her eyes, "I have never been jealous of her before, and I am very content with the status quo, I think I can live my own life, until the queen mother forcibly broke up me and Jin'an and forced me to marry a powerful minister, I know how pathetic a Wang Ji who has no power and does not want to make progress is really sad."
"I often think sometimes that if I had the capital of the Nineteenth Sister, even if the Queen Mother persecuted it, it would be a big deal to follow the Nineteenth Sister to force the palace to rebel in order to defend my rights and dignity.........
In the end, Sakura's tone choked, as if she had thought of something extremely sad.
"Your Highness......
Wei Zelan wanted to interrupt and not let Asakura continue, after being with Asakura for so long, he knew that this man named Jinan was an eternal pain in Asakura's heart, and he was sad when he mentioned it.
Asakura has been depressed, and many things have been held in her heart for too long, so she really doesn't vomit or feel unhappy, but she still continues: "The queen mother herself couldn't love back then, and she didn't taste the taste of mutual affection, so she only knew that I didn't follow her for the first time for a man, but she never understood the relationship between me and Jin'an."
"I still remember that it was a Mid-Autumn Festival, and the lantern festival that night was more lively than before, and I was at the age when I didn't know what it was like to be sad."
"I took a fancy to a glass lantern at the lantern festival, this lantern is extraordinary, you have to participate in the lantern riddle guessing activity to win the first prize, I met Jin'an in the lantern riddle guessing activity."
"I still remember what he looked like at that time, dressed in silver-white clothes, with a warm smile on the corner of his mouth, graceful, gentle and elegant, at that time he and I guessed the most lanterns correctly, and no one was convinced by anyone."
Thinking of the scene at that time, Sakura smiled: "It's a pity that in the end, I made a mistake and lost to him, but he gave me the glass lantern with his backhand."
"That night was the happiest moment of my life, and he was like that
Take me by the hand and take me to the lake with lanterns. We hit it off at first sight, and it was as if we had known each other for several years."
"I sat on the boat with him and wrote the words, I wrote the first half of the sentence, he wrote the other half of the sentence, and every sentence he wrote was written on my heart. It was also the first time that I realized that fate is a very delicate thing, and that people who have just met can really do what the poem says."
Sakura burst into tears, her eyes were misty, and she unconsciously saw Wei Zelan in front of her as Jin'an.
According to her request, Wei Zelan's dress is very similar to that of Jin'an, which often gives Sakura a wonderful and self-deceptive illusion that Jin'an is still alive.
"Jin'an ......"
Asakura stroked Wei Zelan's smooth and full forehead, from the first day of Wei Zelan's nearly thirteen royal mansions, she said that Wei Zelan and Jin'an have seven or eight points of resemblance, especially the forehead part is the most similar.
Therefore, Asakura's favorite thing to touch is Wei Zelan's forehead.
Maybe it's because of her previous experience, Sakura has a special habit, that is, she likes to whip her own waiter hard, and she specializes in beating her favorite waiter, and the more she likes it, the harder she beats it, as if venting.
Wei Zelan was beaten by Asakura several times and couldn't get out of bed, but no matter how she beat him, she wouldn't hit his face similar to Jin'an, and she didn't allow this face to be damaged in the slightest.
When other male waiters were whipped by Asakura, they could cry and show painful expressions to their heart's content, but they only asked Wei Zelan to force a smile and bear Asakura's resentment without saying a word.
In addition, Wei Zelan will come to something, so since he came to the Thirteen Princes' Mansion, he has always been the most favored one and will never be replaced.
Asakura cried and fell into Wei Zelan's arms, sad like a child who can't get candy: "Jin'an, do you know how I survived without you, I'm sad, I'm numb, I turned myself into a walking corpse, praying to see you in my dreams."
"But no matter how many methods I tried, it didn't work, after so many years, you didn't even want to give me a dream, you must hate me...... Jin'an ........."
The Asakura people were in Wei Zelan's arms, but they called Jin'an's name again and again.
Wei Zelan whispered in an imperceptible voice, "But Your Highness, I am not Jin'an after all, my name is Wei Zelan."
