National Beauty - Chapter 225
Rui Wang became a quasi-prince, and changes gradually took place in the court hall. When the upper court was scattered, more and more courtiers talked to Rui Wang. It didn’t affect Zhao Heng because he was always reticent. Unless it was related to political affairs and official affairs, Zhao Heng never said a word to any minister. In this way, the ministers would have automatically kept their distance.
Song Jianing couldn’t help but worry. In her previous life, she heard rumors that the Shou King murdered the prince and his elder brother. In this life, Song Jianing has been able to determine that the Chu King’s accident has nothing to do with the prince. As for the murdered prince, he must be the quasi-prince, right? So, did the prince really hurt the prince and replace him?
If everything can continue according to the previous life, Song Jianing doesn’t have to worry, and waits obediently for his prince to put on his dragon robe. But this life has changed so much, Song Jianing is afraid that if the prince has the heart to fight for the throne, because there are more variables around her, something happens in the process of competing with the Rui Wang.
At night, Song Jianing had a nightmare, dreaming that the prince, like the king of Chu, angered the emperor and was banned from Nangong. The dream was too unlucky, and Song Jianing became even more worried in the daytime. Zhao Heng realized that, after thinking about it, the only thing about the prince that has caused her to worry recently, he looked at Song Jianing a little more inquisitively.
The little princess in Zhao Heng’s eyes was gentle and demure, contented with Changle. Although she was a princess, she lived like a wife and wife of ordinary people. She never asked him about the affairs of the court, and even ministers were not interested in choosing her for promotion. Before today, Zhao Heng had never been curious about her attitude towards the position of queen.
“In the past few days, why bother?” When I returned to the house in the evening and saw her sitting on the couch in a trance, I forgot to welcome him. Zhao Heng remembered that after the meal, Zhao Zhaoyou’s brother was taken away by the nursing mother, and Zhao Heng took Song Jianing into his arms. He held it inside, looked at her eyes and asked, the dark eyes that looked at the fire seemed to remind her to tell the truth and don’t want to fool people.
Song Jianing didn’t want to fool him, but he didn’t dare to talk about the throne. He leaned on his shoulder to show weakness, and whispered, “I have gained weight.”
The voice was soft, and I hope that the prince sees that she is fattening as he wants, and stop questioning.
Zhao Heng smiled, squeezed her waist with big hands, and then moved up to check if she was really fat. Song Jianing just wanted to change the subject quickly. Since the prince opened her head, she simply closed her eyes and pressed it to his chest, seeming to be hiding from his hand, but in fact she deliberately rubbed it. It was not easy to let her take the initiative, Zhao Heng’s fire was easily rubbed out by her, biting her ear like punishment, Zhao Heng gave up interrogation for the time being, and bowed his head to kiss her Xiangxiang’s neck.
After a hearty, Song Jianing wanted to sleep satisfactorily.
“Is it upset to see someone get promoted?” Zhao Heng asked in a dumb voice, pulling away the wet hair sticking to the side of her face.
Song Jianing was at a loss, who was promoted?
Zhao Heng supported her body with one hand and slowly traced her eyebrows with the other, simply saying: “Jing Zhaoyin.”
Song Jianing blinked her eyes and finally reacted. She quickly explained, “No, I…” She wanted to make an excuse, but when she met Zhao Heng’s deep eyes, Song Jianing pressed her lips and slid into his arms and said: “I , I’m just worried that the prince is unhappy.” If he wants to be an emperor, she hopes that he will get what he wants. Her prince will be able to literally and be able to worry about the country and the people, which is more suitable for the throne than the Rui Wang.
Zhao Heng was slightly startled, and immediately realized that she was worrying about him.
“I’m not upset.” Zhao Hengrou said by kissing her earlobe.
Song Jianing raised his head. What the prince meant was that he didn’t covet that seat?
Her question was written in the pair of clear apricot eyes, but Zhao Heng did not answer clearly, rubbed her head with a smile, and said in a low voice: “Guotai people are safe, my wife and children have no worries, I will be enough.”
Song Jianing seems to understand, and it seems…
“Go to sleep.” Zhao Heng hid the quilt and interrupted her thoughts.
Song Jianing nodded, smelling his unique man’s breath, and fell asleep peacefully.
When he woke up the next day, the prince had already gone to court. Song Jianing was lying on the bed and recalled last night. Finally, she came to the conclusion that her prince was indifferent to fame and fortune. There was something wrong with King Rui himself, and when the people saw that the prince had picked up the bargain, they made wild speculations.
Rui Wang Mansion, when Song Jianing was dedicated to rectifying her husband’s name, Princess Rui had long been dreaming of her queen. The king of Shou made so many contributions that the emperor didn’t choose him, and his prince’s position as the prince must be very stable. In other words, she will become a princess and a queen in the near future. Her li elder brother will be the future. The prince, the emperor!
“My brother Li, hurry up and grow up.” Picking up the baby, Princess Rui proudly kissed her son a few mouthfuls.
The mother and daughter were making each other, and the maid outside reported that the concubine and aunt had come to please peace.
The corners of Princess Rui’s mouth rose immediately. When she was not favored in the past, Princess Rui could not wait for Chen Xiu and Zhang to disappear in front of her completely, so she avoided the twilight of the two foxes. Now that her mother has become the most favored woman in the palace, Princess Rui set out the rules again and asked Chen Xiu and Zhang to come and salute her every day.
“Bring it in.” Princess Rui leaned on the front pillow and continued to tease the son in her arms. Only when the second daughter entered the room, she faintly squinted.
Zhang has fallen out of favor for a long time, her status is low, her age is the oldest, she has no intention of contending for a long time, and she is an honest person and dare not offend the princess. Chen Xiu was young and beautiful. The child died in October when she was pregnant. Wang Rui had pity on her. With Chen Xiu’s methods, he gradually recovered some of his favor. Now Zhao Pu is back as prime minister, and Rui Wang treats Chen Xiu. Spoiled three more points.
There is confidence if there is a favor, and Princess Rui wants to show off, Chen Xiu directly ignores it, and is still arrogant.
Princess Rui wants to see Chen Xiu envy her and even hates her because of jealousy, but Chen Xiu still has eyes on the top of her head. Of course, Princess Rui is unhappy. Glancing at Chen Xiu’s belly, Princess Rui suddenly has a way and shakes Brother Li. Concubine Rui sighed faintly with his little hand: “If the child is alive, he should be gone now. It’s a pity, otherwise the two brothers will grow well together.”
She didn’t name her by name, but everyone in the room knew that the child in her mouth was the son of Chen Xiu who died. The wound that never healed was pierced to the end by Princess Rui again. Chen Xiu’s face was pale, his eyes stared at Princess Rui, and the nails in his sleeves pierced into the palm of his hand with hatred!
Her son was clearly killed by Princess Rui, how could this woman dare to mention it?
The more angry she is, the more satisfied Princess Rui will be. If she appreciates Chen Xiu’s painful, resentful and helpless face, Princess Rui lazily said: “Okay, let’s go down. I have to prepare for Brother Li’s catch of the Zhou ceremony. I want to do it long, but he doesn’t bother with anything. Thinking of it, I have a headache…”
Her lips kept moving, but Chen Xiu could not hear Princess Rui’s voice anymore, only Brother Li was left in her eyes. Brother Li stretched out his hand enough for his mother, and his little fat hand stretched out hard, and finally touched the face of the mother who bowed his head to greet him. Seeing Princess Rui’s hypocritical smiling face, Chen Xiutong shrank sharply.
Princess Rui got cold inexplicably, frowned and raised her head, seeing Chen Xiu and Zhang turning around and leaving.
