Chapter 174: The Price of Disobedience

"Mingyu, is this winter about to pass more than half of it, I actually feel as cold as before."

Chu Xin sat in front of the window and looked at the scenery outside the window, as if the snow had slowly melted, the temperature was slowly rising, and many times the house felt not cold without lighting a charcoal fire.

As the days passed, everything changed.

"Yes, it's already February, and Your Highness hasn't been here once."

Mingyu was listless all over, and when he heard about what happened outside, he didn't know whether to tell Mrs. Fang, if he did, he would definitely know that it would be a very big blow to the other party.

This kind of feeling of being excluded is really uncomfortable, and even an outsider feels a little uncomfortable, let alone Mrs. Side?

"Don't hide it from me anymore, tell me what happened, now that my illness has improved, I won't feel headaches from time to time, no matter what happens, I can accept it."

Chu Xin's expression was faint, and there was no joy or sorrow.

Aren't you a fool, how can you not know what is going on outside, Chu Xin has not come over for so long, it must be because he has something to do.

"It is said that two months ago, there was a sudden epidemic in Lizhou, and the people were short of medicine, and His Majesty asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness to rush over to deal with the epidemic and settle the people.

There was a shortage of medicine during the epidemic, and it was the princess who sent a letter back to Dachu, so that Dachu sent enough medicine and food, but fortunately, Lizhou was in the middle of the border between Dachu and Northern Qi, so it was quickly delivered. “

Mingyu replied truthfully that when she heard the news, Mrs. Fang was really sick at that time, so she wanted to hide it and wait until it was ready.

"Because the medicine and food were delivered in a timely manner, the people quickly suppressed the epidemic without any accidents, this time it was all the credit of the princess and Her Royal Highness, and Your Majesty praised Your Highness very happily."

Chu Xin just listened quietly, "It's good that the people are not harmed, it is indeed worthy of praise, this is a happy event, why do you keep hiding it from me?" ”

"I'm just afraid that Mrs. Test will be unhappy..."

Mingyu said distressedly.

"What do I have to be unhappy about, the palace has lost the comfort of the people, the people's affairs are the most important, the princess can send back a letter to Dachu, and get so much medicine and food, this is also a happy event, and it is a happy event to be able to get His Majesty's praise, we should all be happy!"

Chu Xin smiled faintly, but her eyes kept looking out the window, as if she was waiting for someone to come, and as if she was not waiting.

"It is undoubtedly the most correct thing to let Chu Yi be the concubine at the beginning, and she is still of great use at the critical moment, if I am the concubine, I will definitely not be able to help him with anything, so this is the right thing and a good thing!"

"Mrs. Fang, don't say that."

Mingyu's eyes were already red with distress, in fact, the calmer Mrs. Fang was, the more unsettled her heart was.

I hope that Mrs. Fang can cry and cry, and don't endure it anymore, she has a serious illness.

"Mingyu, I really don't have anything, His Highness has been praised by His Highness, which shows that he is a useful person in the eyes of His Majesty, he married a good wife, I really have no right to complain about anything."

Chu Xin shook his head and withdrew his gaze.

"Close the window, the wind outside is still very cold, and it will still be very uncomfortable to blow on your body."

Chu Xin turned around and no longer looked out the window.

After letting Mingyu out, he sat on the bed alone and quietly looked at the ground.

In fact, this is also expected, Xiao Zhi and Chu Yi have not had any news for so long, so they know that there must be something important to deal with.

It's also very good, Chu Yi's status is noble, her own brother is His Royal Highness of Da Chu, and sending a few letters back is naturally what she wants, and she can help His Highness and get His Majesty's praise, isn't this good enough?

They're a match made in heaven...

East Palace.

"Thanks to you marrying a good princess, this matter can be handled in such a timely manner, I didn't expect the epidemic to be so serious at that time, fortunately, Lizhou is on the border between Northern Qi and Dachu, and fortunately, the medicine and food sent by His Majesty Dachu are so sufficient, so that the damage of the people can be minimized."

Xiao Qi and Xiao Zhi have been busy for more than two months, and the matter has finally been resolved satisfactorily, and they rushed back after seeing that the medicine and food were completely sufficient, and then seeing that most of the people were slowly getting better.

"Are these all as they should be, no matter what, the people's affairs are the most important, whether it is me or the princess, we know this truth, but it is also thanks to His Majesty Da Chu."

Xiao Zhi has been busy for more than two months, and his whole person has lost a lot of weight, but he has always been thinking about someone in his heart.

This incident made him get a great praise in front of his father, the bounty was one hundred taels, the reward was nothing, the important thing was that his father could finally see his existence in his eyes.

He is finally no longer an incompetent and useless person, and finally has a little value.

"You and I have been very tired for more than two months, you should go back quickly, thanks to the princess, you really married a good wife!"

Xiao Qi smiled and patted Xiao Zhi's shoulder, in fact, he was quite satisfied with this imperial brother, and he was really willing to follow him.

At that time, the situation was urgent, no one knew what would happen to him, as the crown prince had to take the lead in everything he did, but he didn't expect that only King Xiang was willing to follow him over, maybe he could see people's hearts clearly when he was in danger.

At this moment, he has a little more sincere affection for this imperial brother.

"From the day I returned to Northern Qi, only the crown prince brother has kindness to me, then I am willing to follow the crown prince brother wherever I go!"

Xiao Zhi bowed his hand and said respectfully, Xiao Qi was indeed the only brother who had kindness to him.

"Needless to say, we're all brothers."

Xiao Qi helped Xiao Zhi up, he has always been a benevolent person, and more importantly, Xiao Zhi fought for himself, this time he was very pleased to see him praised by his father.

On the carriage back, Xiao Zhi only hoped to go back quickly, he hadn't seen Chu Xin for more than two months, and he had to meet her this time.

It was also because he was in a hurry to leave, and he didn't tell Chu Xin where he went and what he was doing.

It's just that when I went back, I was called by Yuexiang again, saying that the princess had set up the wine and wanted to celebrate.

Xiao Zhi frowned slightly, this time it was also thanks to Chu Yi that this face had to be given, so he could only turn around and go to Fanghua Courtyard.

"Your Highness!"

Chu Yi greeted him with a smile on his face, he had been waiting for a long time, knowing that he had helped a lot this time, and his whole face was red and full of anger.

"You don't have to wait for me at the door in person, just go in, this time it's thanks to you, fortunately, you wrote a letter to make His Majesty Da Chu send so much medicine and food in time!"

Xiao Zhi held Chu Yi's hand, the two sat on the chair, he looked at each other's faces, but he thought of another person, I don't know if it's okay after so long.

"It's okay, I'm your wife, we're all a family, as long as you're good, I'm good, not to mention that my father praised us so much in the palace banquet that day, and no one will dare to despise us anymore!"

Chu Yi relieved her anger and said, she wants to earn back face for her husband, and she wants them to be respected, she is the princess of Da Chu and the sister of His Majesty, and she will definitely be able to help her husband rise to prominence.

"Thank you"

Xiao Zhi held Chu Yi's face and kissed her lightly on the lips, there were only the two of them in the room at the moment.

Chu Yi closed her eyes and smiled and felt all this, yes, this is her own use, this is the biggest benefit of her identity, she is the princess and no one can replace her.

Qixia-in.

"Sister, why can't His Highness come over, has he forgotten that his sister is still waiting?"

Qianqian asked in a chattering voice, her incense is almost ready, and she is about to succeed, but His Royal Highness doesn't seem to have been here for a long time, have you forgotten the existence of your sister?

"I just heard that His Royal Highness has returned, but he went to Fanghuayuan, and he should come back to see Mrs. Fang in a few days."

Dew Zhu comforted, she also heard about the outside affairs, His Royal Highness is really busy because he has something to do, and he should come over to take a look when he comes back now.

"It's okay, he can't come over if he wants to, it's okay, don't keep asking, you have to live your own life, you know?"

Chu Xin squeezed out a smile and touched Qianqian's head, her body improved, and she finally didn't feel a headache.

In fact, after listening to the events since these things happened, I was sincerely happy for Xiao Zhi.

It is really a good thing to be able to save so many people, it is also a good thing to be praised by His Majesty, and it is even more good to have a wife like Chu Yi.

Recently, she has become more and more fond of quietness, and after dinner, she lets everyone around her retreat, and she likes to stay alone in the house and feel the quiet atmosphere.

The quieter you are, the more you can hear your heartbeat, the clearer you will be thinking.

My mother was really from the past, and she clearly wrote on the letter that she would regret it, and when she saw the word regret, she suddenly felt that her heart was suddenly struck.

I feel that the words that forcibly save my dignity have become so weak, it turns out that I love my mother, and these hypocritical words in front of me are not important at all.

"I went to Lizhou these days, and I was in a hurry to tell you, will you blame me?"

Someone suddenly appeared behind her and hugged her, but she didn't have the joy she had before.

"How dare I complain, Mingyu told me everything that happened these days, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay that those people are okay, it's good that you can stand by my side safe and sound."

Xiao Zhi turned around and shrunk into Xiao Zhi's arms, she was afraid that the other party would see her tears, and she was even more afraid of seeing her tangled appearance.

From this moment on, we should forget all the emotions of these days, forget the letters written by my mother, forget the word regret, forget all the emotions of regret.

Chu Yi has a noble status, she will always have a way out, she can do whatever she wants, but she is not!

Is there any way back for her?

It has reached this point, and all those bad emotions should be forgotten, buried in the deepest part of the heart, and never remembered again.

Mother, I'm sorry, all this is a punishment for her daughter's disobedience...
