Chapter 43 is a good antithesis
The girl was dressed in a pale pink palace dress, kneeling on the cobblestone floor, her shoulders trembled slightly, as if she was crying, and the palace maid headed by the front smiled arrogantly: "Little cheap hoof, I don't look at how much ability I have, and I dare to go to the emperor to flatter?" The concubine Niangniang asked you to kneel here, is it cheap for you, and you still have the face to cry? Why, Ning Xiang, do you have a grudge against the concubine? ”
As soon as the hat was buttoned, the palace maid who called Ning Xiang immediately didn't dare to cry, and bit her lower lip to hold back her tears.
But those people still didn't give up, and the eunuch next to him rudely pinched Ning Xiang's chin, looked at him with compassion, and said: "Our family just lacks a pair of food, this little girl is born of a water spirit, you said that our family went to talk to the concubine Niangniang, she would definitely agree, right?" ”
"What did the prince say, you are the old man in the palace of the noble concubine, how could she refuse this little thing?"
The palace maid's eyes flashed with excitement, but Ning Xiang's face turned white with fright, "Princess, please let the slave go!" ”
Xin Zhi, who was hiding in the shadows, opened his mouth wide and asked in an angry voice: "Master, is that the person from Concubine Mei's palace?" ”
Chu Wuxian narrowed his eyes, his gaze fell on Ning Xiang, thought for a moment, and walked out.
Xin Xing immediately gave Xin Zhi a look, and everyone followed behind.
"Spare you? It's your blessing that our family can take a fancy to you, what does it mean for you to make such a gesture? Don't look down on our family? What are you, don't be embarrassed. ”
The eunuch was furious, let go of Ning Xiang's chin, rounded his arm and wanted to slap her.
Xie Shuangge looked at the fire in his heart, "What a bully eunuch!" Pay attention to food, you and I are willing, other people's good girls are unwilling, you still have to force others, you really don't want to be old-fashioned, disgusting! Chu has no hatred, beat him! ”
Most people in the palace can't talk about food in front of Xie Shuangge, and they are afraid that the princess's ears will be dirty, but she has grown up in the palace since she was a child, and she still knows a little about it.
Eunuchs can't be humane, there are some tricks to grind people in that matter, and if they have a better temper, they will hurt people, and the two are also harmonious, if they are like the princess, they are not good at stubble, and if Ning Xiang marries in the past, he can't say how much torture he will suffer.
Chu Wuxian couldn't listen to it anymore when he heard this, and he raised his voice: "Stop!" ”
The prince's hand had not yet fallen, and when he heard this, he didn't react for a while, and turned his head with an angry face and shouted: "Who dares to make noise in the imperial garden? ”
"Me."
Chu Wuxian strode over with a team of brocade guards, the momentum was violent, the prince was immediately dumbfounded, his hand trembled, and he trembled: "Chu ...... Lord Chu? ”
The rest of the accomplices also trembled with fright, and stepped back one by one.
Xie Shuangge snorted: "Bullying the soft and being afraid of the hard, there is no interest." ”
She took a closer look, these people were really people from Concubine Mei's palace, and they usually followed Concubine Mei's side, and the palace maid who spoke should be called Ning Lu, which was quite important to the concubine.
In the past, I saw myself called a respectful, smiling brighter than a flower, and a clever mouth is the most praising people, but I didn't expect this appearance behind me, but I really know people and don't know their hearts.
Chu Wuxian also recognized her, and after glancing at her lightly, he accurately called out her name: "Condensation? ”
Ning Lu was stunned for a moment, and then stepped forward a little shyly and bowed: "I didn't expect Lord Chu to remember the name of the slave?" ”
Chu Wuxian said expressionlessly: "I know some of the people around Concubine Mei, it's just-what are you doing?" If it reaches the ears of His Majesty, what crime should you be guilty of humiliating the palace people in the imperial garden in broad daylight? ”
"This ......"
The princess said: "My lord doesn't know, this is the incense in the palace of the concubine, because she made a mistake and was punished by the concubine to kneel here, the slave just said a few words to her, she was not convinced, and she also contradicted the slave, and the slave was angry with her and did not repent before beating her." ”
Xie Shuangge was amazed, "It turns out that black and white are so reversed, if I hadn't heard it just now, I would have really believed your nonsense!" ”
Ning Lu also opened her mouth, wanting to say something, Ning Xiang's eyes rolled, and suddenly her eyes turned red, and she burst into tears again, "My lord, the slave is wronged!" ”
She knew that only Chu Wuxian could call the shots for her here, so she clung to this life-saving straw.
Ning Lu's face changed, "You still dare to say it?" ”
The princess also stared at her gloomily, "Don't talk nonsense in front of adults, come here, pull her back to Feiluan Palace-"
"Wait."
Chu Wuxian raised his hand to stop it, and Xin Zhi Xin Xing immediately stepped forward to protect Ning Xiang behind him.
The prince and Ning Lu glanced at each other, "What do you mean, my lord?" ”
Chu Wuxi's eyes were faint: "This is the Imperial Garden, the noble concubine is punishing her to kneel here, didn't say that you will be privately punished, right?" If Your Majesty passes by and collides with Your Majesty, can you afford the things on your neck? ”
His gaze was solid, and the blade slashed across his neck.
The prince immediately shrank his neck and said, "What the master taught me is that in this case, the slave will retire." ”
Ning Lu was unwilling and wanted to say a few more words, but the princess pulled her sleeve and gave her a warning look, but she had no choice but to say: "The slave and maid retire." ”
The group left in a gloomy manner, and Ning Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, and sat on the ground crying.
Xie Shuangge looked at her scrutinically, although that group of people was not a thing, it was impossible to judge whether this person was completely innocent.
Chu Wuxian thought the same, he glanced at it coldly, then raised his feet and was about to leave, throwing down a sentence: "I'm afraid you won't be able to go back to the concubine's palace, so find another way out earlier." ”
Seeing that he was leaving, Ning Xiang suddenly knelt up straight, and kowtowed respectfully three times at his back, "Thank you for saving your life, the slave is unforgettable, if you have the opportunity in the future, you will definitely repay your lord." ”
Xie Shuangge raised her eyebrows: "This girl has a bit of backbone." ”
If she opened her mouth and asked Chu Wuxian to help him change to other palaces, with Chu Wuxie's status and power, it would not be difficult, and the people in the palace would sell him face to some extent.
But she didn't, she just thanked Chu Wuxian, thinking that she already had her own plans in her heart.
In this way, she should look up to this girl.
In this harem where you eat people and don't spit out bones, you can only survive by standing up.
Chu Wuxian's footsteps paused slightly, he didn't look back, just waved his hand.
Ning Xiang saw it and burst into laughter.
……
Today is August 16, it is Xie Shuangge's birthday, Your Majesty went to the Queen Mother's palace early in the morning, Chu Wuxian accompanied him, listening to His Majesty and the Queen Mother discuss the birthday gift for Xie Shuangge, and his mind couldn't help but live.
The Queen Mother's body is indeed much better than when she was in the palace, and it may be more suitable for older people to stay in a place they are familiar with, and the Queen Mother has a big appetite after coming back.
At this time, leaning on the beauty couch by the window, his eyes were far away, "Today is sixteen, usually at this time Jianing should enter the palace happily, lying on the knees of the mourning family and coquettish the mourning family, to see the birthday gift prepared by the mourning family." ”
As she spoke, she laughed, her eyes wet again.
The emperor sighed: "After today, Jianing will be eighteen, big girl." ”
Xie Shuangge had mixed feelings in his heart, "Yes, I ......"
"I just haven't married yet."
The Emperor replied slowly.
Xie Shuangge: "......"
