Chapter 183:-for-tat
Because of Princess Qingluan's request for the emperor's marriage, the princess's mansion is filled with * smell, and those who usually flatter Princess Qingluan have gloomy faces, if there is no guard in the princess's mansion to stop them, I am afraid they will rush to Wei Xun's room and dismantle Wei Xun.
Ye Ningxiang came to the princess's mansion at such a tense moment, but at this time, Princess Qingluan, the owner of the princess's mansion, was still fighting for her marriage in her brother Xiao Qingyu's palace.
Everyone in the mansion didn't expect that Queen Ye, who had never had much intersection with Princess Qingluan, would rush to the princess's mansion as soon as she learned that the princess was about to take a horse, and they didn't expect that she would come to the princess's mansion not to see the princess, but to meet Wei Xun, who had no money, no background, no talent, and only relied on a beautiful face to win Xiao Qingluan's favor.
As Ye Ningxiang had expected, Wei Xun's room was indeed heavily guarded, and the door was closed tightly, and it was clear that he was being imprisoned by Xiao Qingluan.
Queen Ye's identity is not lower than that of the eldest princess, after Ye Ningxiang said with a gloomy face and opened the door, although the guard was unwilling, he still obeyed Ye Ningxiang's order and opened the door of Wei Xun's room.
Wei Xun's room is simply furnished and rustic, and you can even smell the aroma of wood emitted by natural wood in the room, which is very kind of returning to nature. Wei Xun, who should have been so anxious that he even tried his best to escape from the princess's mansion, was now lying quietly on the bed, his eyes slightly closed, not knowing whether to sleep or wake up.
Hearing the door open, and then a series of familiar footsteps sounded in his ears, Wei Xun opened his eyes with difficulty, forced himself to get up, and looked ahead, the moment he saw Ye Ningxiang, all the fatigue that Wei Xun showed was swept away, and his eyes rekindled the light of hope.
"Ningxiang. ”
The feelings of longing released in an instant made Wei Xun forget the etiquette of respect and humility, and directly called Ye Ningxiang's name, but the voice was bitter, which made people feel heartache. As soon as these words came out, Wei Xun's eyes were already red, and he choked up and couldn't say anything.
Ye Ningxiang couldn't understand, obviously half a year was not a long time, why Wei Xun had such a strong reaction, she looked at Wei Xun with wide eyes full of doubt, that kind of gaze without any emotion made Wei Xun's heart that had just had a temperature freeze again, and it was so cold that he almost lost consciousness.
"You...... You seem to be hurt. ”
Ye Ningxiang was very unaccustomed to such an embarrassing situation, so she forcibly pulled out a topic in the hope of diverting Wei Xun's attention.
Wei Xun looked up and down at his impaired body, and said with a wry smile: "It's not that I'm injured, it's that I've been drugged." Princess Qingluan was afraid that I would run away, and forced me to take the pill every day, which would cause my whole body to be sore. If I resisted, she would execute the maidservant who delivered the medicine for her incompetence. ”
It turned out that Wei Xun was afraid of hurting the innocent, so he had been subject to the princess's mansion. Ye Ningxiang listened to Wei Xun's understatement of his almost captive experience in the princess's mansion, and unconsciously felt a little guilty in her heart.
"Wei Xun, I've worked hard for you in the past six months. ”
Maybe it was because he hadn't heard Ye Ningxiang's words of concern for too long, and when he heard Ye Ningxiang say this, Wei Xun suddenly had a smile on his face, and he looked shy and coquettish, like a flattered child.
"It's not hard, it's not hard, I still want to be able to do more things for Ningxiang!"
"What did you say?"
"Hmm. ”
Wei Xun was immersed in the joy of being sincerely concerned by Ye Ningxiang and couldn't extricate himself, and he didn't realize what other meaning Ye Ningxiang's question contained, so that when he heard Ye Ningxiang's words, the whole person was already stupid, his face was full of disbelief, and he couldn't say a word.
"I want you to marry Princess Qingluan. ”
Straightforward, straight to the point, leaving no room for words, like a thunderbolt just right on Wei Xun's head, making him lose consciousness in pain.
"You...... What do you say?"
"I want you to marry Princess Qingluan. In this way, you will be able to stand in the center of power in Sweden, and it will be much easier for us to fight for power. ”
His beloved woman, who took the initiative to care about him a moment ago, actually wanted to use his lifelong happiness as a bargaining chip at this moment in exchange for her chance to seize power, Wei Xun's heart was dripping blood, and the pain was numb. He hung his head and didn't speak for a long time, and even the air in the room was so cold that it seemed to condense. And Ye Ningxiang was in front of him from beginning to end, without saying a word, waiting for the answer he gave her.
"Okay, I promise you. ”
Wei Xun didn't know how he made the sound, and he didn't hear the words he said clearly, his head was buzzing, the sky was spinning in front of him, and his pale face was soaked in a thin layer of sweat. Then, he went black and lost consciousness.
In the afternoon, when Xiao Qingluan returned, she brought what she thought was a great joy, and her imperial brother finally agreed to her marriage to Wei Xun. And when she returned to the princess's mansion, her good mood was all stirred up by Wei Xun's sudden illness.
Later, she realized that taking drugs that limited Wei Xun's mobility for a long time would occasionally have strong side effects on her body, such as suddenly becoming seriously ill and suddenly bedridden. Since then, Xiao Qingluan no longer dared to give Wei Xun the pill that harmed his body, and Wei Xun had no intention of escaping.
However, the most incredible thing for Xiao Qingluan was that the man she wanted in every possible way suddenly agreed to marry her, no matter what kind of wishful thinking her future husband had in her heart, she was extremely happy and excited.
By the time Wei Xun's illness had fully recovered, it would have been two months later, and two months was enough time for Xiao Qingluan to prepare for a decent wedding, and Xiao Qingluan had indeed done this.
When Ye Ningxiang followed Xiao Qingyu to the princess's mansion to attend Princess Qingluan's wedding banquet, she almost didn't recognize that the place she was in now was actually the princess's mansion she had come to two months ago.
The layout of the house has undergone a major change, from the inside to the outside and repainted, in just two months, the princess's house has been completely renovated, splendid, carved railings and jade, everywhere revealing nobility and luxury.
Such a well-prepared wedding will inevitably encounter some discordant factors, such as Ye Ningxiang met the person she hated to see the most at this wedding, her sister Ye Ninglu.
According to common sense, a concubine of Ye Ninglu's status did not have the opportunity to participate in the princess's wedding, but as if she wanted to show the world that she was pregnant with a dragon, she asked Xiao Qingyu softly, and finally got the opportunity to participate in the wedding like Ye Ningxiang.
During that time in Anyou Temple, Ye Ningxiang only didn't expect that her sister, who was full of bad water, would use tricks to make Xiao Qingyu fall into her way, and she flew into the emperor's concubine.
If she is still a boy in her belly, then it is not impossible for her mother to become a queen on an equal footing with Ye Ningxiang in the future. Every time she thinks of this, Ye Ningxiang always has a bad anger in her stomach, and she doesn't know where to vent.
Just when Ye Ningxiang was annoyed in Ye Ninglu's heart, Ye Ninglu, who had been hated by Ye Ningxiang hundreds of thousands of times in her heart, came to her with a smile.
"Sister, I haven't seen you for a long time, my sister misses you very much!"
Ye Ningxiang showed a false smile on her face, and her hands gently stroked the back of Ye Ningxiang's hand, showing the world a perfect set of sisterhood dramas.
Ye Ningxiang sneered and pushed Ye Ninglu's hand, looking at Ye Ninglu's eyes cold and sharp.
"If my sister misses me, she can go to Changle Palace to find me, why do you want to stage this bitter scene here?"
Ye Ninglu didn't expect Ye Ningxiang to refute her face like this when all the guests were present, she was stunned for a moment at first, and then her eyes were full of tears, and she couldn't wait to shed tears soon.
"My sister's sincerity to my sister can be seen in the world, it is really my sister who is pregnant and has been sick all day long, and the emperor is afraid that I am weak and has a fetal gas, so I can raise the fetus in the palace in the United States, so that I can give birth to a dragon with peace of mind. ”
Ye Ninglu's words were pitiful, and outsiders heard as if she was being bullied by Ye Ningxiang everywhere, which made Ye Ningxiang's situation more and more difficult.
When I go to Changle Palace to see her, I will have a fetal gas, and there is no problem at all when I go out of the palace to attend the wedding banquet in the princess's mansion, and this illogical thing can only be done by a village woman like Ye Ninglu. Ye Ningxiang disdained to argue with Ye Ninglu, crossed Ye Ninglu's body, and prepared to enter the main hall to wait for the wedding.
Unexpectedly, she had just walked to Ye Ninglu's side, Ye Ninglu suddenly slipped under her feet and leaned forward, in the eyes of outsiders, Ye Ningxiang deliberately tripped Ye Ninglu with jealousy.
However, what Ye Ninglu forgot was that Ye Ningxiang had learned martial arts under Xiao Qingyu for seven years, and such a thing as quick eyes and hands was not a problem for her at all.
At the moment when Ye Ninglu leaned forward, Ye Ningxiang immediately realized her conspiracy, and almost at the same moment, she grabbed Ye Ninglu's wrist and forcibly pulled her back to her normal standing position.
On the contrary, because of the strength in her hand, Ye Ningxiang's body turned uncontrollably, and then fell headfirst to the ground, and the moment before landing, Ye Ningxiang's face showed a touch of evil charm, as if she had a smile of revenge.
And Ye Ninglu, who was still proud a moment before standing beside her, was already like ashes, and her hands were trembling from excessive fright.
With the muffled sound of Ye Ningxiang falling to the ground, the laughter and music in the princess's mansion stopped suddenly, and everyone's eyes fell on Ye Ningxiang and Ye Ninglu.
Ye Ninglu was shocked for a while and finally came back to her senses, and hurriedly squatted down, ready to pick up Ye Ningxiang who fell to the ground, and the joy that filled her previous words was swept away, replaced by endless fear.
She knew that her sister had never treated her sincerely, and this time she was the first to harm others, but she was afraid that when Xiao Qingyu arrived, Ye Ningxiang would deliberately add oil and vinegar and try her best to put her to death. Now I can only pin my hope on Xiao Qingyu, hoping that Xiao Qingyu can try to forgive her guilt for the sake of that.
"Ningxiang. ”
Hearing that Ye Ningxiang had accidentally fallen and was injured, Xiao Qingyu almost flew out of the main hall of the princess's mansion, grabbed in front of Ye Ninglu, and hugged Ye Ningxiang in his arms, and there seemed to be some slippery liquid flowing in the hand holding Ye Ningxiang's head. Xiao Qingyu withdrew his hand, only to see that the white palm was stained with blood flowing from Ye Ningxiang's head.
