Chapter 197 (2/2)
In addition, incense was burned in the main hall, which made Chen Xiao unable to restrain himself. He covered himself now
Chu Zhi, who hid behind to see this scene, felt a chill at the bottom of his eyes, and then turned over from the window and left.
She walked quickly back to the Changle hall. At this time, the women in the hall didn't go much, and the queen didn't know where to go.
Seeing that Chu Zhi finally came back, Chu Xuan hurriedly asked, ”where have you been? Just now I and several sisters went to find you. We couldn't see you for a long time. Let's find it.”
I'm afraid something happened to her. I'm worried about them.
Chu Zhi said with a smile, ”nothing. I just feel a little uncomfortable. I went outside and worried you.”
Chu Xuan didn't believe it: ”where are you going? It's been less than half an hour since you've been walking for so long.”
Chu Zhi smiled but said nothing. Seeing that she didn't want to say more, Chu Xuan couldn't ask again. Instead, Chu Xi suddenly smiled and said, ”I just saw the maid in waiting beside the queen talking with her sister!”
Chu Zhi raised her eyes and looked at Chu Xi. Chu Xi trembled at the bottom of her heart, but still smiled: ”what's my sister doing looking at me like this?”
”Nothing.” Chu Zhi hung his eyes and played with the gold bottle in his hand. After a long time, he suddenly said, ”I heard that the queen intended to point out Miss Zheng to the fourth prince. I don't know whether it's true or false.”
As soon as the voice fell, Chu Xi's face changed.
She did see with her own eyes that the maids around the queen took Chu Zhi away, and soon after Chu Zhi left, the empress also left the table.
Now Chu Zhi said so, I'm afraid he heard the wind from the empress.
Coincidentally, she did see the fourth Prince talking with Miss Zheng just now.
Chu Xi could not help gnashing her teeth at the thought of Miss Zheng. Previously, at the Begonia spring banquet, Miss Zheng provoked discord, which made Princess Pingyang severely ridicule her. She didn't deal with Miss Zheng that time.
But doesn't Miss Zheng like Gu Shizi? Why did you rob the fourth prince with her again?
In his ear is the incomparable solemn promise of the fourth Prince: ”Xi'er, believe me. No matter who I hire, you are my favorite woman. Don't worry, I won't wrong you. I will fight for the position of a side imperial concubine from my mother.”
Yes, the fourth Prince's side imperial concubine is Chu Xi's goal.
She had said before that since she was determined to climb up, she must climb to the highest position.
In order to achieve this wish, she would rather give up her beloved Gu Shizi and compromise under the fourth prince. How can a concubine be satisfied?
It's just that Miss Zheng is arrogant and domineering, and Chu Xi is really gentle and small in front of the fourth prince. If Miss Zheng really enters the fourth Prince's house, even if they are both side concubines, Chu Xi can't take advantage of it in order to maintain the staffing. I'm afraid she will be crushed to death by Miss Zheng.
In order to avoid something difficult, it seems that she must find a way.
Seeing Chu Xi listen in, Chu Zhi slightly hooks his lips and hisses.
Chu Xuan whispered, ”did you really hear that Miss Zheng is going to marry the fourth prince as a side imperial concubine?”
Everyone knows what the palace banquet tonight is for, but I didn't expect to decide the candidate for the side imperial concubine of the fourth prince so soon.
”Just heard, not sure.”
In her previous life, Miss Zheng Yingying did become the side imperial concubine of the fourth prince, but she had never been able to fight the white moonlight of Chu Xi.
Chu Zhi decided this because she met Zheng Yingying's mother, Mrs. Shang Shu, when she came back earlier. She personally said to Zheng Yingying that the queen had nodded and the decree had been drawn up. She would move the decree in two days. Now she just waits to hear the good news.
