The Pearl on the Emperor’s Crown - Chapter 84
Seeing such abnormal Xie Ying, Rong Ting knew that the other party was rarely interested in a woman. Sure enough, Xie Ying went on to say to Rong Ting bluntly: “I want to take her into the palace.”
What kind of person Xie Ying is, Rong Ting naturally knows that if the other party really wants something, he must get it. And Xie Yinghui’s proposal of asking for a woman is a first-for-nothing, and it must have been considered, and it will never be a sudden enthusiasm.
And Zhu Yi’s performance also made Rong Ting very strange. Although Zhu Yi often smiled at him and Zhu Ning, he always felt that the other party was not happy. In other words, Zhu Yi seems to have closed herself in her small world. The beautiful scenery outside and the changes in current affairs can’t arouse her interest. It was the first time that Rong Ting saw her emotionally exposed.
Rong Ting loves the house and Wu, and naturally does not want Zhu Yi to lead an involuntary life, so she says that she has to look at her own opinions.
When Zhu Yi woke up from wine the next day, Rong Ting asked her, and the other party’s reply was: “I don’t want to enter the palace.”
Rong Ting also understood that even though the palace was the place where Zhu Yi grew up, it might have left many unpleasant memories.
Zhu Yi did not want to enter the palace, and Xie Ying did not force it, but it took more time to go to the Guogong Mansion.
There is a faint noise in the palace, saying that most of the time in the past, officials were summoned in the palace to deal with government affairs, and even the kings who stayed in the Yanghe Hall except for the first fifteenth day of the new year often disappeared from the palace in the afternoon.
The palace people who participated in spreading the news were quickly dealt with. In view of Xie Ying’s strong style and the private act of going out of the palace, there was no official in the previous dynasty who dared to raise it clearly for fear of being charged with “snooping on the sacred bow”.
When Xie Ying arrived at the Guogong Mansion, he always approached Zhu Yi without shying away. Sometimes she was called to the outer courtyard to talk to him and play Shuanglu. Sometimes the dove occupied the magpie’s nest and occupied Rong Ting’s study to deal with affairs, so Zhu Yi was called to study ink.
Gradually, Xie Ying took Zhu Yi out of the Guogong Mansion alone, to take a boat ride in the water, or to ride a horse on the racecourse. The furthest time was to take Zhu Yi and Rong Ting and his wife to Tianming Mountain in the suburbs of Beijing. The diligent king unexpectedly dropped out of the court for three days, which caused a lot of private discussions.
Just connected to the coming New Year’s Eve, Xie Ying went to the Guogong Mansion after he was watching the New Year’s Eve in the palace. Fei summoned Zhu Yi, who had already fallen asleep, to the front yard and asked her to accompany him to watch the year.
Zhu Yi also stayed until midnight today before going to rest. Before she slept warmly, she was overpowered by a man and got up from the bed as a companion. She has always been greedy for sleep and guarded, her head turned down like a chicken pecking at rice, and Xie Ying looked at Zhu Yi’s unguarded attitude, and did not call her again.
He leaned against him with Zhu Yi who fell softly to the other side. Zhu Yi closed her eyes, and Ren Xieying’s fingers lingered on her face without knowing it, even the man’s lips covered her lips, and Zhu Yi only let out a small muffled grunt. Voice.
Taking advantage of the custom of wearing masks during the Spring Festival, Xie Ying took Zhu Yi to the lantern festival. Both of them wore masks. They were not afraid of being recognized by courtiers or others. Zhu Yi is obviously happy. He is no longer indifferent to anything. Instead, he goes to various acrobatic performance places to watch the excitement with the flow of people.
Xie Ying spent unprecedented patience and time on Zhu Yi, but he was not in a hurry to completely occupy her.
Until one day, he saw Zhu Yi and Rong Xiao alone in the garden.
Although the distance is far away, with Xie Ying’s ear power, he can still hear the words of the two clearly. Rong Xiao is expressing his yearning for Zhu Yi, claiming that he wants to marry her as his wife, and he will only be good to her in this life. And Zhu Yi was silent for a long time before tactfully rejecting the other party.
She seemed to want to marry Rong Xiao, who had silently loved her for many years and was infatuated, but she also thought that she was being looked upon by the emperor now, worried that Xie Ying would be jealous of Rong Xiao, so she had to refuse.
Xie Ying stood under the shadow of the tree, her eyes uncertain.
Gu Nanci’s dream was suddenly interrupted by a voice: “The big sister’s face is so red and her forehead is very hot, how can this be?”
“What?” Another person came over: “Senior Sister has a fever, right?”
First the woman said: “No, the senior sister has always been in good health. She has not been exposed to the rain or the wind today.”
Gu Nanci opened his eyes lightly and looked at the two of them, and the body heat quickly faded away.
There, Yan Yuer left Gu Nanci, but was “invited” by Yan Zheng to go to Yan Fengqin’s place.
Yan Fengqin looked at the girl, his face and tone of voice were really not good: “The mirage medicine that Yan Hao kept was stolen by you. Who did you use it for?”
“Steal? My brother said it too badly. What is stealing? In the past, I took your good things, but you have never tried so aggressively to ask me to come over for training.”
Yan Yuer tutted: “Let me guess the reason. Do you think I applied the medicine to your beloved princess?” She smiled and said, “Brother, don’t worry, I know you want Zhu Yi, so how can I move her.”
“Yu’er, I know you better than anyone else.” Yan Fengqin said with a cold face, “Don’t challenge my bottom line by relying on my love for you.”
Yan Yuer knew that Yan Fengqin couldn’t be fooled, and she said with a cold face: “Just for a woman who doesn’t have you in his heart, does my brother have to be unsympathetic to his own sister?”
Yan Fengqin didn’t answer any more, and was about to leave, but Yan Yuer stopped the other party and said, “Brother, I’ll give you a girl. You can stay here if you see.”
Yan Fengqin stopped: “Naughty, how can a sister who has not left the pavilion send a woman to his brother? You have been careful recently, the emperor is not the only one who has to deal with me.”
Yan Yuer didn’t answer, only clapped her hands, and someone brought a woman closer.
Yan Fengqin noticed something, turned around, and saw that the lower half of the face of the woman who appeared in front of him was very similar to Zhu Yi, especially the red lips, the proud figure, and the eyes were specially drawn and deliberately imitated. Zhu Yi’s makeup is similar to six points.
Seeing the man looking at herself up and down, the girl timidly said: “Yiyi has seen the son.”
Yan Fengqin was disgusted by her pronunciation of the word “Yiyi”, and sneered, “Don’t be impressed, garish.” Yan Pai turned and left.
Yan Yu’er was so angry that she clenched her fists, and she glanced at the bewildered Yiyi: “Don’t worry, when you come in handy.” She looked in the direction of Yan Fengqin’s departure, and uttered two words slowly: ” It’s useless.”
——
Zhu Yi’s head rested on Xie Ying’s arms, trapped in the arms of the man, motionless, she was too tired, both of her inner thighs were sticky and uncomfortable, and she didn’t want to get up to clean, just closed her eyes and went to sleep.
