Chapter 73: Obsidian

The birthday of the king of Chu is getting closer and closer, and the atmosphere of the relationship in the palace is getting stronger and stronger, and many things have to be seen by Zheng Yinghuan in person, but there can be no mistakes.

"Mother, it's better to let Concubine Li and Concubine Jia share some things, you watch them one by one, I'm worried about your body!"

Chu Yi obediently pinched Zheng Yinghuan's shoulder, Zheng Yinghuan was looking at some lists, this birthday is to welcome the envoys of the two countries, it is not a trivial matter, and it must be seen in person.

"I'm not worried about what the two of them do, and if your father is unhappy at that time, he will only blame me."

Zheng Yinghuan smiled, but her voice was still a little hoarse, but fortunately, the scar on her neck was already healed, and her appearance could not be seen.

That time when I was choked by the neck of the pavilion concubine, I really felt the pain of suffocation, so when I learned that His Majesty had given the order to stab to death, I felt extremely relieved.

The pavilion concubine is just a cheap life, and she really deserves to die.

"Yi'er, every time you are in the limelight, this time is no exception, but don't let people who shouldn't be in the limelight stand out, understand?"

Zheng Yinghuan's words are naturally meaningful, and the people in Zhongcui Palace will also go when the time comes, and Chu Xin is also the eldest princess, but these are not worth mentioning.

"Don't worry, mother, I know what to do!"

When it comes to Chu Xin, Chu Yi always has some subtle feelings in his heart, I really wish it would be good without Chu Xin, every time I mention her, I always feel that my diaphragm is very good.

"The birthday picture embroidered with gold thread has been prepared, and when the time comes, you will personally dedicate it to your father, and everyone else should be sensible, and no one will dare to cross you."

Zheng Yinghuan stretched out her hand and touched the little hand rubbed on her shoulder, she really liked this good daughter, and she liked to watch her daughter being pampered.

"Thank you for the arrangement!"

Chu Yi smiled and nodded, looking forward to the upcoming birthday in her heart, she must be in front of Chu Xin to show off, so that Chu Xin realized that they are also princesses, but they are different lives!

Chu Yan waited in the side hall for a long time, his whole person was cowering, after experiencing the last jade pendant incident, she didn't dare to say anything to Chu Xin anymore, she always felt ashamed, but more panicked and afraid.

Because she didn't play any use, in Chu Yi's opinion, she must be an incompetent person, and I am afraid that the days with her will become more and more difficult in the future.

Hearing the movement behind her, Chu Yan was startled, and quickly got up, seeing that this was Chu Yi coming, the whole person was even more panicked and afraid.

"The last time the matter of the jade pendant actually passed like this, and Chu Xin was not allowed to accept the slightest sin, what do you think?"

Chu Yi glanced coldly and sat on the chair by himself, while Chu Yan stood aside with his head down.

She despised Chu Yan for being so cowering, how could she look like a little princess, she was only worthy of serving herself!

"I don't know."

Chu Yan gritted her teeth vigorously, she didn't know what happened last time, she only knew that she could give the jade pendant to Chu Xin obediently, and she didn't know what would happen after that.

"I know that you can't do anything, forget it, no matter how much you say to you, you won't understand, but let me talk a lot, it's really boring!"

Chu Yi smiled coldly, not only did she not blame Chu Yi for the last incident as originally planned, but instead made her mother suffer such a big crime, she remembered it all, and she must return everything in the future in the future!

"It's my father's birthday soon, what have you prepared?"

Chu Yi has always not allowed anyone to be in the limelight, let alone surpass himself, so he naturally has to ask clearly at this moment.

"It's a congratulatory picture embroidered by the mother herself."

Chu Yan said softly, the whole person suddenly felt a little embarrassed, Chu Yi could sit, but she had to stand like a slave, she would answer when the other party asked, as if she had really become a slave who served people.

In fact, such a scene has happened many times, she will only endure it, and she will only endure it forever and dare not go back to tell her mother.

Because she really knows it too well in her heart, it won't be useful if she says it, she will only worry about whether she makes Chu Yi unhappy, whether she makes Chu Yi happy.

So her temperament is getting more and more cowardly day by day, the last time Chu Yi said about the jade pendant, she didn't want to do it in her heart, but she was afraid of Chu Yi's pressure, so she still did it.

It is precisely because of how unsightly this thing in her heart is, so she feels a little guilty, she doesn't dare to face Chu Xin, and she has been avoiding Chu Xin's gaze.

"The birthday picture is something that my mother and I want to prepare, since I have already prepared it, then how can you prepare the same thing! Let's swap it out! ”

Chu Yi doesn't care, she doesn't care what others prepare, but she is absolutely not allowed to prepare the same things as herself, and she can't cross her, this is the most basic rule.

"Yes."

Chu Yan gritted her teeth vigorously, and looked carefully at the tears in her eyes.

Only she knows how hard it was for the concubine to prepare these birthday pictures, but they were all embroidered by herself, and her eyes were all red, and now it was just Chu Yi's words, and these efforts were all useless.

"You should thank me for making your words so clear at this moment, otherwise you would be the one who would be ashamed if you took out the same gift as me?"

Chu Yi covered her mouth and smiled disdainfully, anyway, in front of these sisters, she could do whatever she wanted.

"Yes, thank you, sister."

Chu Yan was about to bite her lip and bleed, she hated it so much, why was she the daughter of her father, why was he so humble?

But because of the jade pendant last time, there is already a layer of separation between himself and Chu Xin Chu Shu, and it is impossible to be as close as before.

"In the future, you should know who not to get close to in front of me, I feel upset when I see it, you don't want to do anything that makes me unhappy!"

Chu Yi knew very well that these words were ostensibly reprimanding Chu Yan, but only she knew that what appeared in her mind was Chu Xin's face.

She really doesn't like Chu Xin, she doesn't like it so much that she hopes that Chu Xin has never existed, and she hopes that there has never been this person.

When did this dislike reach its peak, probably when Xiao Zhi said that he sympathized with Chu Xin, at that time, his heart was really sour.

Maybe at that time, the feud between her and Chu Xin had already been settled, right?

"I heard from my mother that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Northern Qi will bring envoys over to celebrate his birthday, what kind of person is His Royal Highness the Prince of Northern Qi, can you tell me?"

Chu Xin asked excitedly, half a month later will be her father's birthday, and she and her mother can also participate at that time.

She had never participated in such a banquet before, and she was a little excited and nervous, and she couldn't imagine what kind of situation this would be, so she was becoming more and more diligent in learning the rules these days, and she just didn't want to make a fool of herself.

"It turned out to be him," Xiao Zhi smiled, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Xiao Qi, he is the prince of the queen's mother, and he is the most loved by his father, so it's no wonder that he let him come this time." ”

Xiao Zhi's words were filled with a little envy, how could he not be envious of such a good life?

It is the eldest son of the queen who is most loved by his father, resourceful and good, and his future life is carefree at a glance, how can he not be envious?

"It turned out to be equivalent to Chu Yi's status, which is indeed quite enviable!"

Chu Xin understood the meaning of these words, and laughed self-deprecatingly, these days my mother told me that when the time comes, I must be as low-key as I can on my birthday, because the one who is in the limelight will definitely be Chu Yi.

"It seems to be true!"

Xiao Zhi thought about it and then couldn't help laughing, but he didn't dare to take it out as if he was secretly grasping something in his hand.

"What you're holding in your hand, I see it!"

Chu Xin was standing, and she saw through the moonlight that Xiao Zhi seemed to be holding something in his hand, flashing a little light under the moonlight.

"Obsidian."

Xiao Zhi spread out his hand, and there was a black stone lying in his palm, emitting a sparkling light.

"It's so pretty, it's as good as your eyes!"

Chu Xin stretched out his hand to touch the obsidian, and then leaned in a little more to stare at Xiao Zhi's eyes carefully, "Your eyes are very dark and bright, they really look like obsidian!" ”

"Really?"

Xiao Zhi didn't retreat, but just let Chu Xin look at it like this, a little shy.

In fact, this obsidian was brought by Chu Yi, and Chu Yi said that he must show him if his eyes are more beautiful than this obsidian.

At that time, I wanted to lose this broken stone and finish it, but it seemed a pity to lose such a precious thing, he and Chu Xin had known each other for so long, and there was nothing good to give to each other, so it was better to give such a precious thing to her.

"Yes!"

Chu Xin smiled sweetly, and the moment he stretched out his hand to touch Xiao Zhi's eyes, Xiao Zhi closed her eyes, and her fingers only touched her eyelids.

"This obsidian is a gift from me, I've known you for so long, I should give you something, I hope you can accept it."

Xiao Zhi stuffed the obsidian into Chu Xin's hand, and immediately felt the warm touch of obsidian in his palm.

"Thank you, I'll keep it by my side!"

Chu Xin pinched the obsidian tightly and smiled happily, until he went back, his heart was still sweet.

"But the princess likes him very much?"

Mingyu asked curiously, he could feel it all the way back just now, and the smile on the corner of his mouth had never bent down.

"Naturally, I like it, when I was in the cold palace in the past, he helped me a lot, and I am grateful to him!"

Chu Xin nodded very naturally, holding the obsidian tightly in his hand, this was the first gift he gave himself.

"It's Your Majesty's birthday soon, and the princess is still obediently staying in her palace, don't have an accident at this moment!"

Mingyu smiled, but still had to speak out to dissuade him.

When they went back this time, Xiao Xie had already fallen asleep, and the two went in lightly.

"You should also go down and rest, you should be tired at such a late hour."

Chu Xin nodded towards Mingyu and motioned for her to stand down, because she wanted to appreciate the obsidian in her palm.

"Well," Mingyu nodded, "the princess also rests early." ”

After Chu Xin took off his coat and lay on the bed, he felt physically and mentally stable, but the obsidian was still lying quietly in the palm of his hand.

This was given to her by Xiao Zhi!

Chu Xin closed his eyes and felt the sweet feeling in his heart, which was an indescribable taste, which made people feel very happy and happy.

She thought she would always remember the joy.
