Chapter 34: His Saving Grace

"What's wrong?"

"Jin Niang, Mingyue?"

Qi Rongxuan was on the male guest's side, and hurried over after receiving the news, he didn't look at the group of people blocking the gate of the courtyard, carefully asked someone to get out of the way, hurriedly squeezed in, and hurried inside.

Before he got close to the door, Xu Manjin, who was sitting on the chair, stood up with a "rub".

"Qi Mingyue!"

Xu Manjin gritted his teeth, walked towards Qi Mingyue angrily, and in everyone's attention, he slapped Qi Mingyue in the face with a "snap", and scolded mercilessly,

"You slut! You count me! ”

"You're still not human?!"

She was so hateful that she used her strength to die, and the corners of Qi Mingyue's lips were broken with a slap.

Qi Mingyue burst into tears, her eyes widened and she let out a shocked voice,

"You, what did you say?"

"Sister Xu, you, what do you mean?"

"How do you ......"

She looked at a loss, dazed and bitterly aggrieved, as if she didn't understand what Xu Manjin was talking about at all.

Xu Manjin was stimulated by her like this, raised her hand and slapped her again, but Qi Rongxuan, who had not yet eased up, stepped forward and grabbed her wrist, "Jin Niang!" ”

"Let go!"

Xu Manjin was originally just angry, but the moment she saw Qi Rongxuan, she almost collapsed.

She raised her other hand, slapped Qi Rongxuan without hesitation, and pushed him hard: "Qi Rongxuan, you brute, your family, your family doesn't want me to enter the door, to put it bluntly, I, Xu Manjin, am also a young court training, and I have been in good faith for twenty years, what did I do wrong to make you ruin my innocence like this?" ”

"Jin Niang, Jin Niang, calm down, it can't be Ming Yue, the whole capital knows that she and King Chen are in love, she will never do such a thing, don't worry, I will definitely give you justice, it's okay Jin Niang, it's okay, you believe me, I won't cancel our marriage contract because of this matter, I have been waiting for you for so many years, don't worry, I will never live up to you" For fear ......that Xu Manjin couldn't stand it, Qi Rongxuan didn't care about whether the occasion was suitable or not, and even didn't care what others thought, so he hurriedly took her into his arms and tried to comfort her.

Xu Manjin beat him hard and refused to let him approach: "You let go of me, you let go of me,......"

"Miss! What's wrong with you, Miss?! Behind them, the maid exclaimed, it turned out that Qi Mingyue couldn't stand the stimulation and fainted.

The eldest princess of Xiangyang looked at this scene, and Lian Jinchen, who stood at the door without saying a word and had a gloomy face, only felt a sudden pain in her brain, if she had known that this kind of thing could happen today, she would never have made a post to the Qi Guo Mansion even if she didn't save face at all.

It's a pity that there is no regret medicine.

This happened in her house, or at her birthday banquet, if she didn't give a reasonable disposition and spread it, wouldn't it mean that she bullied an orphan girl?

"What about the doctor? Check her pulse. The eldest princess of Xiangyang shouted, her eyes swept over a few people,

"Since something happened, don't leave until you say it clearly."

"Come on, wait for a few masters to clean up,"

After speaking, she turned around with the support of Mama Zhou, and saw the group of people watching the excitement, and almost fainted.

She glared at Yin Dushang fiercely, she would really find trouble for her? What are you doing here with a bunch of people? Today's incident, I really can't cover it if I want to.

What's going on?

The eldest princess of Xiangyang was angry with her chest, but she had to greet Qingqi who was smiling with a smile on her face, "Let the concubine smile, and the concubine is here today, so it's better to be a witness together." The Xu family's mourning period has just passed, and the palace can't let anyone bully the Xu family girl no matter what. ”

"Okay, Hongu is happy to help."

Qing Qi smiled brightly, and raised her eyes to look at Lian Jinchen with the corners of her lips.

Catching up with Lian Jinchen, Qingqi's eyes quickly hooked up a touch of mockery, and then turned around and left with the eldest princess of Xiangyang.

Lian Jinchen looked at the direction in which Qingqi turned and did not move.

He didn't miss that mocking glance at her.

His heart was on fire.

It seems like I've never been so embarrassed.

He remembered that day in the Strange Beast Garden, he stood in front of her, and then when he looked up, he saw her saving him.

He was from a good background, he was smart since he was a child, and his appearance was not bad, so that he has always been a little conceited.

It is right to be conceited about what you have done, to be conceited that you can handle everything well, and to be conceited of your own ability and ambition, you will be able to secure the country in the future, and even dominate the world.

He felt he could do it.

But he didn't know when it started, but he suddenly realized that he seemed to be a little useless.

It's useless.

He was always being saved by others, by people who were weak in his eyes, or who he didn't look down on at all.

Then inexplicably fell into the calculation, watching Qi Mingyue faint in pain and sadness, and seeing other people's good marriages ruined.

No one will blame him.

Even Qi Mingyue was so sad that she questioned Xu Manjin.

I won't ask him why he did such a thing.

It seems that he must not be the one who is convinced that he is wrong.

Is it really not him?

In the past, he would have been furious when such a thing had happened, and he would have hated those who dared to plot against him behind his back, and he would have wanted to pull them out and skin them at once.

But now, he suddenly began to question, is he too useless, that's why this kind of thing happened?

Just like how he was gullible, credulous about the ridiculous method of exchanging hearts for hearts.

even enchanted to ask Qi Wan to donate her heart.

Why?

What did he think at the time, he felt that Qi Wan had to pay the price for the kindness of the past sixteen years of nurturing, even if Qi Wan really had to pay the price, it shouldn't be him, it shouldn't be him who asked her to do this.

What the hell happened to him?

Obviously, when he was young, his mother happily said that she had found him a good daughter-in-law, asked him to take a look at Qi Wan quietly, and asked him if he agreed to marry Qi Wan as his wife, and he agreed.

He also felt that a generous and bright woman like Qi Wan was suitable to be a princess, and even suitable to accompany him to a higher position and a farther future.

When has it changed?

It was when he was injured and disappeared in that battle, thinking that he was going to die, that he met Qi Mingyue, was rescued by her, thought he had met a fairy, and the fairy left him without hesitation.

He never forgot about it since.

But so what?

From an early age, he knew that he had been chosen as one of his heirs, and that if he wanted to compete with other brothers to become the heir in the future, he had to understand his responsibilities.

Obviously, marrying Qi Wan is also his responsibility.

Why did he blame Qi Wan?

Just because Qi Wan and Qi Mingyue were wrong, was the person he should have married was precisely the fairy he had been obsessed with?

But even so, why should he let Qi Wan repay his life-saving grace?

It was he who owed Qi Mingyue a life, not Qi Wan.

So why did he get obsessed step by step, and finally came to that end?

Lian Jinchen was in a trance, so trance-like that for some reason, after such a ridiculous thing happened, he remembered that part of the past.

"Lord, lord?" The maid's shouts interrupted Lian Jinchen's train of thought.

"Huh?" Lian Jinchen looked.

The maid said cautiously: "The princess ordered the slave maid to take the prince to freshen up." ”

Lian Jinchen looked down at the messy folds on his clothes, very embarrassed.

but less than one ten-thousandth of his heart.

He followed the maid away in silence, and did not look back at the house.

……

By the time the eldest princess of Xiangyang sent the guests to lunch and returned to the flower hall where things were ready to be dealt with, it was already half an hour later.

The mother of the Xu family is not in good health and is bedridden all the year round, and the person who came is Xu Manjin's younger brother Xu Chengyu, who is only fourteen years old this year.

The eldest sister was bullied outside, even if Xu Chengyu was still a teenager, and the people present were more powerful than him, he still looked like an extremely protective calf, like a young beast that only bites, in a protective posture, standing by Xu Manjin's side.

Qi Rongxuan's face was worried, but from the moment he just went to change clothes, Xu Manjin refused to see him.

It was as if no matter what he said, she didn't want to listen anymore.

Qi Rongxuan had no choice but to see his sister who was still unconscious.

There was a doctor in the eldest princess's house, Qi Mingyue just fainted in anger, and soon woke up under the treatment of the princess.

It's just that she seems to have been greatly stimulated, her eyes are always red, and the whole person is weak.

Qi Rongxuan couldn't even ask her what was going on.

The room was dead silent.

Until the next person reports,

"The eldest princess of Xiangyang has arrived, and the noble concubine has arrivedβ€”"

Everyone stood up and waited for the eldest princess of Xiangyang and Qingqi to sit on the top of the top, as well as Lian Jinchen and the old lady Dou of the Fengguo Mansion.

Mrs. Dou is Lian Jinchen's maternal grandmother, who is nearly seventy years old, and she no longer goes out to be a guest.

Presumably, Lian Jinchen personally sent someone to pick it up just now.

The eldest princess of Xiangyang also breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her old man coming.

Everyone sat down, but Old Taijun Dou stared at Qingqi for a moment before retracting his gaze.

Qi Rongxuan, who had just finished saluting and sat down, raised his head, and when he touched Qingqi's face, he stood up excitedly and looked at her in a daze, but in the next second, when Qingqi's eyes swept over, a dark pain crossed his eyes, and he apologized to everyone with a pale face, and then sat back down.

just clasped the fingers of the seat tightly, venting the extreme unrest in his heart at this time.

He knew that it wouldn't be Qi Wan, it wouldn't be his "sister",

"Okay, since everyone is here, let's talk about what's going on." The eldest princess of Xiangyang knows that the course of the matter is no longer important, but there must always be an explanation.

She looked at Lian Jinchen, "King Chen, say it." ”

"This king apologizes to Miss Xu first, this matter is the fault of this king, and he should be responsible." Lian Jinchen got up and saluted Xu Manjin, and then said, "This king received a message from the maid, and he ...... Miss Qi asked the king to meet, and the king went, and when she arrived, she felt that the smell in the house was wrong, and she was worried that something was wrong, so she went into the house to see, and then she was drugged, and what happened later. ”

In fact, he knew that he and Xu Manjin would not have a substantive relationship in the future, but it was a fact that he trivialized Xu Manjin, and he couldn't shirk it.

The eldest princess of Xiangyang asked Xu Manjin again, "Miss Xu, what do you say?" ”

Xu Manjin has probably calmed down, although his face is still pale, but he has calmed down a lot.

Her voice didn't fluctuate, and she calmly said what had happened,

"I'm with that...... I accompanied Qi Mingyue to change clothes, and when I arrived at the wing, she said that she was a little uncomfortable and wanted to rest for a while, so I stayed with her. ”

"After a while, she said that her chest was tight and she wanted to go out to breathe, I said that I wanted to accompany her, and she said that King Chen had made an appointment with her and asked me to stay and wait for her for a while, and I fainted after waiting."

There seemed to be nothing wrong with what these two people said, and the eldest princess of Xiangyang finally asked Qi Mingyue,

"What about you? Miss Qi. ”

Qi Mingyue's cheeks that had been beaten by Xu Manjin were still a little swollen, her eyes were red, and she looked very pitiful, "I know Brother Chen...... I knew that King Chen was coming, so I asked the maid to go to him and wanted to meet him, and the maid came back to tell me that King Chen felt that it was not appropriate to meet him in the wing, so he asked me to wait for him in the garden, so I took the maid to the garden. I waited for a long time and didn't wait for anyone, and I thought that he had something to delay, and it was not good to ask Sister Xu to wait for me, so I went back, who knows......"
