Chapter 7: Hit the board
"It's not like that!"
Chu Xin hurriedly climbed out of bed, and the uneasiness in his heart was gradually expanding.
"This box of charcoal was obviously handed to me by you personally, and it was the little princess who said that she wanted to give it to me, and everyone next to me could testify to it at that time!"
Chu Xin's whole body was shivering, even though the charcoal fire was still lit, he still felt a cold.
She looked up unwillingly and wanted to look at the eunuchs who followed behind her, these eunuchs had all been seen when they went to the Inner Division's Hall, and they were all present at the time.
But the eunuchs all stood indifferently and didn't say a word.
"What nonsense are you talking about, if according to what you said, this charcoal fire was stolen by this girl, then if you don't take care of such a precious charcoal fire, it will be easily taken secretly, isn't it you who are really incompetent and should be beaten!"
Xie Ruya was calmer, she got out of bed and put on her coat to lead Chu Xin to her side, and glanced at the charcoal fire that was being lit.
She probably understood what this meant, in fact, when Chu Xin got the charcoal fire from Aunt Cui some time ago, she was also a little afraid that this was a game.
But after all this time, there was no movement, so I was a little relieved.
After all, this winter is too cold and too cold, Mu Wan just died this winter, and she didn't want to freeze to death here with Chu Xin, a girl.
Maybe whether it's last time or this time, it's all a game, and the last time I gave charcoal and didn't bother, it means that I just want her to use it with peace of mind, so this time I have to come over and worry about her.
Chu Xin grabbed Xie Ruya's hand, her whole person was trembling, and she quickly understood what it meant.
Thinking of the delicate little princess like a blessing doll, she suddenly wanted to take the golden hairpin and insert it into the neck of the little princess, just like when she killed the father-in-law An who couldn't save him!
"I didn't expect the concubine to be so sharp-tongued, no wonder it will disgust Your Majesty!"
Yuexiang is not afraid of Xie Ruya's questioning, it has already been abolished, and she is not a real concubine, what is she afraid of!
"Don't say such useless nonsense in front of me, you are not optimistic about Hongluotan, it is your own responsibility, I am afraid it will be disgraceful to put everything on a child, sure enough, what the master is like, what the slave is like!"
Xie Ruya crossed her waist and stepped forward to scold Yuexiang, those words couldn't hurt her at all, these things like love have long been worthless.
"The concubine Niangniang still has the style of the past, it seems that all these years in the cold palace have not worn out your temper", Yuexiang smiled weirdly.
"I didn't come here today to quarrel with you, but Your Majesty has an order, no matter who steals the mother's charcoal, they will all rely on thirty, but I look at this little princess who is thin and small, I'm afraid there will be no one if these thirty sticks are beaten, right?"
Yuexiang looked Chu Xin up and down, and couldn't help but cover her mouth and smile.
Xie Ruya's face changed greatly, and she looked at the eunuchs standing behind her with a board, and it seemed that this was a planned game.
When I didn't meet that Aunt Cui before, I was safe, but as soon as I provoked the people around that slut, I was in trouble immediately, and sure enough, the people in Chuxiu Palace were completely a scourge!
Chu Xin grabbed Xie Ruya's hand in fear, she shouldn't have taken away those charcoal fires so easily, she was really stupid, she had already noticed the inexplicable appearance of that little princess, she should have simply picked up those charcoal slag at that time!
Is it just because you took these charcoal fires that you are going to be beaten to death?
"You stupid girl, hurry up and tell me everything that happened, and don't stop me at all!"
Xie Ruya was so angry that she patted Chu Xin's head fiercely, but her whole hand was trembling.
No matter what happened, they came prepared today, and it seemed that these thirty boards must be suffered.
"These charcoal fires were given to me by the little princess, and she personally handed them to me," Chu Xin pointed to Yuexiang and said aggrievedly.
It seems that she was indeed calculated this time, in fact, when she saw the little princess, she was also very vigilant, if she gave something else, she would definitely not ask for it, but what she gave was the most needed and precious charcoal.
I just don't want Xie Ruya to be frozen, and I don't want to see her hands washing clothes red from the cold all the time.
"No one came out to testify about what you said, but many people testified that you stole the charcoal, and Your Majesty's order has already been issued, no matter how much you bother to talk about it, it is in vain, these thirty boards must be hit on one person!"
Yuexiang looked at Xie Ruyan and smiled, it was obvious that the target of this time was her.
"Okay, it's hard for your master to remember me after so many years, it seems that I still have a deep impression in her heart, since she is ready to beat me, what can I do at the moment, then fight!"
Xie Ruya gritted her teeth and smiled, it was obviously just a scene directed and acted by Zheng Xiyue herself, she had been in the cold palace for so many years, but she didn't expect the other party to still not let her go.
"Niangniang is really happy!"
Yuexiang looked away from Chu Xin disdainfully, even if it was a princess who was once the queen's concubine, isn't she still struggling in the cold palace, and how can she compare to their princess Yi?
Chu Xin stayed in the room and watched Xie Ruya being pulled out to play the board, she wanted to go out with her, but Xie Ruyan didn't let her go out to see.
Chu Xin sat paralyzed on the ground and covered her face and couldn't help crying, blaming her for being really stupid, how could there be such a kind princess?
If there is really such a kind master in the palace, how can the people in this cold palace live so miserably!
The people in the cold palace can't fight, and they will only be sent in if they lose, and those who have a mind are living well outside!
But at that time, she really just wanted some charcoal, and she really didn't expect to provoke so many things
In the future, she will never be so stupid again, and she will never trust a person so easily.
She only hated that she didn't have the ability to retaliate back at this moment, and she couldn't stick the hairpin into the neck of that little princess like revenge on Grandpa An!
Outside, Xie Ruyan was lying on the bench with a sweaty head, and the board fell down one by one, although it was a cold day, it was still painful and sweaty.
"The proud concubine Niangniang in the past also has today, I thought that the arrogance on your body should be worn out for so many years in the cold palace, but I didn't expect that this time it will still be the same, I hope that after this board can be restrained a little!"
Yuexiang stood aside gloatingly, looking at the former Niangniang's opponent was this Xie Guifei, and said that Xie Guifei was the most arrogant and arrogant, but in the end, she still lost their mother's hands, and at this moment, she had to honestly lie on the chair and take the board?
"If you want to fight, you can fight, is it your turn to talk here!"
Xie Ruya glared at Yuexiang fiercely, and suddenly a board fell down heavily, and she trembled in pain.
Anyway, this board must be beaten, just hit it, it's better to hit her than to hit that girl.
Yuexiang sneered disdainfully, and didn't say anything more, anyway, she had already completed her mother's task, and this board also hit Xie Ruyan firmly.
Chu Xin didn't know how long he had been in the house, and wanted to see through the window what was going on outside, but he still held back.
She knew that Xie Ruya didn't let her go out to see because she didn't want her to see the other party being beaten, and she also knew how proud Xie Ruya was usually, no matter how worried she was at the moment, she could only hold back first.
Chu Xin slapped himself hard, telling himself that this was the price of being credulous, if it weren't for Xie Ruyan's presence, these boards would have hit him.
The door was suddenly opened again, and the two eunuchs carried Xie Ruyan, who was already beaten and was about to faint, in, and threw the person into the room, turning around and leaving indifferently.
Chu Xin hurriedly climbed forward and carried Xie Ruya to the bed with great effort, the board was hit on the buttocks, and he could only put the person on the bed on his stomach.
"You girl will have to be clever in the future, I don't have so many lives to bear the price, if there is a next time if I am killed, see who can raise you!"
Xie Ruyan lay on the bed, opened her eyes in a daze, but quickly closed them again, her whole body was hot and red, and her cheeks were flushed.
The pain in the body has long been numb, and it is called real pain when the first few boards are hit, and it doesn't hurt when you hit too much.
"I know, I know!"
Chu Xin couldn't help but lie on Xie Ruya's back and cry, crying and looking at the bloody wound on his buttocks, which was already blurred, and his dress was already stained red with blood.
After crying for a while, Chu Xin wiped his tears vigorously, ran out and brought a plate of water, which was already cold, and quickly put the water on the shelf on the charcoal fire to heat it, and then rummaged through the cabinets to find some clean clothes for Xie Ruyan to wipe his wounds
Xie Ruyan had already been unconscious, but she couldn't help but let out a few soft snorts when she was wiping her wounds.
When the water boiled, he brought the water over, tore the clean clothes into small pieces, and wiped the blood from the place with hot water.
The blood stains are easy to deal with, but the wound is difficult to heal if there is no medicine, not to mention that Xie Ruyan is already hot at this moment, as if she is having a fever.
Looking at the basin of red blood, Chu Xin wiped her tears again, she has already lost a mother, does she want to lose a second one, will she be alone in the cold palace in the future?
No, she will definitely not let Xie Ruya be like her mother!
The handkerchief that suddenly fell into the pile of clothes was brought out of the closet just now, and this handkerchief was given by Aunt Cui, judging from the situation that day, it seems that Aunt Cui also has some identity.
The people who came in just now said that His Majesty was in the palace of Concubine Zheng, so she would take this handkerchief and hope to be able to pass unhindered to see what her father, who had never met before, was like.
Chu Xin gritted his teeth, and after making up his mind, he felt that he was not afraid of anything, squeezed the handkerchief tightly in his hand, and finally glanced at Xie Ruyan, who was burning in a daze, closed the door and ran out.
At this moment, the night was almost deep, and there was fine snow outside, and the guards in the cold palace had already slept in their own rooms, and Chu Xin slipped out easily
Occasionally, a patrolling palace person saw Chu Xin, and just wanted to drive away the handkerchief, so he pointed out the location of Chuxiu Palace for her.
Chu Xin knew that Aunt Cui must be someone from Chuxiu Palace, and when she saw the little princess today, Aunt Cui was standing behind her.
I hope that Your Majesty is still in Chuxiu Palace at the moment, doesn't it mean that Zheng Guifei is very favored, since she is frostbitten, His Royal Highness must always be with him, right?
