Chapter 17: Other Thoughts
"These are indeed needed, but you don't have to be so arrogant, when you entered the palace, no one knew that Concubine Xie was the most beautiful, even if this cold palace for eight years only made you a little haggard and carefully cultivated for a period of time, and it will be made up soon!"
Xie Churou lowered her head and smiled, in fact, her words were not comforting and nonsense, it was very rare every time she came over in the past few years, this time she looked at Xie Ruyan so closely.
I also feel that I just look a lot haggard, and with a lot of cultivation with good things, I may be able to restore my previous appearance.
"This face is important, but it will definitely not be the only thing that matters."
Xie Ruyan reached out and touched her face, and smiled a little ashamedly, "No matter what, it's bothering you." ”
"You and I are both women of the Xie family, not to mention that there is not much time for my aunt to protect us, while my aunt can still speak in front of His Majesty, my sister should not stay up in the cold palace, and come out if she can come out."
Xie Churou persuaded bitterly, in fact, in addition to being genuinely worried, he also had a little bit of his own thoughts.
Now the entire harem is dominated by Concubine Zheng, and Concubine Zheng's children can be regarded as protecting her infinite grace in the future, and it is precisely because of this that she is becoming more and more arrogant.
In addition to treating the concubines who obeyed her, she treated the rest of the concubines with eyes at every turn, and she has also suffered a lot of anger over the years.
At present, no one in the harem dares to compete with Concubine Zheng Guifei, so I want to invite Xie Ruya out to say that at least Xie Ruyan was also the favorite harem back then, no matter what the reason is, there is always a little bit of thought
Thinking of the anger she has received over the years, she is really aggrieved in her heart, and on weekdays, she is not fighting or grabbing and does not want to do some things to compete for favor, so His Majesty is also indifferent to her, not good or bad.
It's not that she is favored, but it will definitely not be out of favor, maybe it is precisely because of this that Zheng Guifei will embarrass her more and more.
Although my aunt is the queen mother, she is not so close to Her Majesty, not to mention that maybe her voice will become smaller and smaller in the future, and maybe Your Majesty will not listen to her aunt in the future.
Maybe it's all because of her aunt, her life is better, if there is no aunt, I'm afraid she will really be embarrassed by Concubine Zheng Guifei to death.
It is precisely because of this that we have to seize the time to persuade Xie Ruya, so that Xie Ruya can come out as soon as she can, but don't really stay up in the cold palace for a lifetime, this is really not cost-effective and not worth it!
"Don't worry, I know it all."
Seeing that Xie Churou was already sweating on her forehead in a hurry, Chu Xin couldn't help but smile, and stretched out her hand to wipe all the sweat off Xie Churou's forehead, seeing how urgent the other party was.
In fact, over the years, her breath has long since disappeared, and every time she mentions the events of the year, there is no impulsive emotion in her heart, only plain, calm and peaceful
It's been so many years, it's time to figure it out, and your majesty may have just had a little affection for her at the beginning.
Later, this feeling was transferred to Zheng Yinghuan, and she naturally liked her, so at that time, she would blame herself without thinking about it.
In fact, now that I think about it, the relationship I cared about at the beginning was ridiculously boring, and it was good to be able to calm her heart down for so many years.
"Okay, I don't want to stay here for too long, I'll leave this cloak with you, what you need, I'll have someone send it to you, you must remember that this time is not too high-profile."
Xie Churou got up and told her that she still had to go to her aunt to give her life, as long as someone agreed to come out, everything would be easy to say.
"Hmm."
Xie Ruyan nodded, got up and watched Xie Churou go away.
Things have already come to this point, and it is really meaningless for her to stay in the cold palace any longer, even if she doesn't think about it, she has to think about it for Chu Xin
The worst result of Chu Xin is to stay in the cold palace for a lifetime, and the slightly better result is that as Fang Cai himself said, His Majesty can be kind enough to take people out, and then find someone to marry casually, as long as he can block Youyou's mouth.
But how could the daughter she raised be treated so casually?
"Is she gone?"
Chu Xin opened the door and walked out of the house, nodded his feet and looked outside, but he didn't see anyone, indicating that he had left, and when he turned his head and saw Xie Ruyan wearing a fluffy cloak, his eyes lit up.
"This thing feels so warm around you!"
Chu Xin was curious and also went inside, and sure enough, he felt that he was surrounded by this cloak and felt warm all over his body, blocking all the cold wind outside.
Xie Ruyan hugged Chu Xin and got up to make all the cloaks on her body tighter.
In fact, it shouldn't be like this, this is just a small cloak, looking at such a small thing can make Chu Xin so happy, there is really an indescribable feeling in my heart.
That's the princess born to the queen, and she shouldn't be so excited because of this little cloak.
…
"Auntie, Sister Ruya finally agreed, and when I went to persuade her, she looked very calm, and she figured it out herself!"
Xie Churou was returning to the Queen Mother in Cining Palace, and she was a little excited in her heart, as long as she was willing to come out.
"Well," the Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction, "It seems that a beating board can really make her think clearly, as long as she is still in the cold palace, such things will definitely be indispensable in the future, while I can still say something in front of Your Majesty now, come out quickly!" ”
"Yes, it seems that my sister really figured it out", Xiao De nodded in agreement, and suddenly thought of something, "It's just that I see that my sister seems to like Princess Xin'er very much, and a big part of the reason why I am willing to come out is because of the princess, I want to fight for a good future for the princess." ”
"If she likes it, keep it by her side," the Queen Mother said indifferently, "It's good that she was born as a princess, and it's good that she was a princess who survived safely." ”
"Yes." Xie Churou said with emotion, "I don't know if Your Majesty has any objections to this matter, and I'm afraid it will not be easy for Concubine Zheng to handle it, Your Majesty has already determined that the original matter was done by my sister, I'm afraid that Concubine Zheng will bring up the old matter again, and it will be very troublesome at the time." ”
As soon as she talked about Concubine Zheng, Xie Churou frowned, and there was a faint disgust between her eyebrows, she had really suffered a lot of anger over the years, and she really hoped to suppress Concubine Zheng's domineering.
Xie Ruyan was also quite favored when she entered the palace, but I don't know if she will have a chance to return to the original when she comes out this time, so let's bet first!
"You don't have to worry about this, this cold palace was also Ruya herself in the beginning, Your Majesty has never wanted to put her into the cold palace, not to mention that now I can speak in front of Your Majesty, such a trivial matter Your Majesty will not disobey"
The Queen Mother is still looking at a Buddhist scripture, and since she reached this age, she has lost interest in anything, so she loves to read Buddhist scriptures.
Maybe it's because of the many things I've done over the years that make my heart uncomfortable, and I just want to rely on Buddhist scriptures to make myself more comfortable.
"No matter how Concubine Zheng is, she is just a concubine, not a queen, and His Majesty only gave her the power to manage the harem for a short time, and she can take it back at any time."
The Queen Mother's action of turning the page is a little big, and it is obvious that she also dislikes Concubine Zheng very much.
"Yes, then these days, I will ask people to quietly send some things over to prepare, and my sister also said that I want to recover well, and I don't want to be so haggard."
Xie Churou also had her own thoughts, and wanted to send all the good things in her palace, but when she saw it just now, she felt that this person was really a little haggard, no matter what, she must first take care of her complexion.
"It's all a trivial matter, just follow Ruaya's wishes."
The Queen Mother nodded and replied, anyway, people are already willing to come out, and there is nothing to worry about these little things, just send it over if you want!
"Yes, the concubine retired, so as not to disturb the Queen Mother to read the Buddhist scriptures."
Xie Churou nodded and bowed and retreated, looking at this day when he walked out, it was rare to have a time today, but the cloak on his body was left in the cold palace, and he still felt a little cold.
"The one in the cold palace is finally willing to come out, and it is not in vain that Niangniang has persevered to persuade her for so many years."
Qingyun supported Xie Churou's arm, thinking about the scene of accompanying his master to the cold palace over the years, it was really not easy.
"Yes," Xie Churou breathed a long sigh of relief, as if she had successfully completed a task, "I knew that I entered the palace to make up for Sister Ruya's position, when she was beaten into the cold palace, there could be no woman from the Xie family in this harem, so my aunt chose me to enter the palace." ”
"But Niangniang was not happy after entering the palace, although she was blessed by the Queen Mother, and her life was not too bad, but Concubine Zheng Guifei was too domineering, and Niangniang also suffered a lot of grievances!"
Qingyun said dissatisfied, she was sitting and serving when Xie Churou was a young lady in the past, and she brought it in when she entered the palace, so she would only think about her master.
"That's why I want her to come out, just because I also have my own selfishness, at least there are two women from the Xie clan in this harem, and Concubine Zheng's attention will not be on me at all."
Xie Churou smiled a little sarcastically, half of the reason was that she really couldn't bear to let Xie Ruya suffer in the cold palace, and half of the reason was that she didn't want to be the target of everyone, and she didn't want to be angry every time she went to ask for peace.
In the end, people will also think about themselves, but she thinks that she has never done anything to be sorry for Xie Ruya, they are all women of the Xie family, and they all have to pay.
"But the concubine has a son and a daughter, that is her greatest confidence, no one in this harem can fight?"
Qingyun is embarrassed, although the concubine is arrogant and domineering, but this is also the capital of arrogance, Princess Yi is His Majesty's favorite princess!
It is said that Princess Yi is the most delicate and cute, ice and snow smart, and she is the most loved by His Majesty, how can the princess in the cold palace be compared with Princess Yi?
"Anyway, let's try it first," Xie Churou said helplessly, "Maybe after so many years, Your Majesty is slowly forgetting the things of the past, maybe you will think of her in your heart?" ”
Xie Churou could only pray silently in her heart, praying that Xie Ruyan still had a little place in His Majesty's heart, looking forward to suppressing Concubine Zheng's momentum.
"I can only hope so."
Qingyun nodded, as long as she can make her master's life better in the future, she has been serving by her master's side since she was a child, naturally all her thoughts hope that her master can live well, and she really can't take care of other people.
