Chapter 143 (1/2)
Cheng Yujin sat in the inner room, listening to the story of the front hall passed by the palace maids. The palace maid went to the front hall to deliver tea. When she went in to pour tea, she could hear the discussion between the prince and his staff. The princess and the princess ran to the back to report the news.
Cheng Yujin didn't speak after listening. Du Ruo and forsythia were waiting on one side. After hearing the words of the palace maid, her face changed slightly: "crown princess."
Cheng Yujin's face was light, and there was no change in her expression. She sat there silent for a long time, raised her hand and said, "I see. Go down."
The maid of honor didn't dare to say more, so she stepped down quickly. After waiting for the maid of honor to leave, Du Ruo and forsythia all frowned and gathered around: "princess, there may be some misunderstanding about this matter. Could it be that maid in waiting heard me wrong? "
"Even the name of the other party and the position of his father's official are all clear. How could they be mistaken?" Cheng Yujin sat there, and her posture didn't change, but when she looked at all this, she suddenly lost her interest. "The only daughter of the general of the fifth military camp, who is good at sex and has an extraordinary family background, is naturally worthy of your highness."
It's like a fly swallowing forsythia. It's disgusting to hear her name If you are really moved by the feelings of your highness and the princess, you should watch from afar and bless the princess and the two little masters. She wants to marry into the east palace to be a concubine. She also has a good name for not inserting herself between the crown prince and the crown princess, but guarding the fairy couple nearby I Pooh! It's just the flattery of the red eyed princess. I think I can do it myself. I have to use such an innocent and pure excuse. "
Forsythia gas is not light, Du if hear also feel very helpless. She looked at Cheng Yujin anxiously and asked: "princess, if she is not afraid, but it happens that her highness is in a critical situation and in urgent need of help What do you think to do, princess
"What to do?" Cheng Jin stood up and said with a smile, "what can you do? General Dong wants to take the opportunity to join his highness and form a family. Miss Dong gets what she wants, and the crown prince gets half of the people in the fifth military camp. This is a good deal for three parties. What does it have to do with me. What do I want to do, and what's the use? "
"Crown Princess..."
Cheng Yujin obviously showed that she didn't want to talk about it any more and asked, "what about Mingqian and Mingyue?"
"The two little masters are still sleeping, and the nanny and mammy are guarding them."
"Well." Cheng Yujin nodded and said, "it's easy to take care of them. There are many mosquitoes these days. Their skin and flesh are tender. They can't be bitten by mosquitoes."
"Yes."
Cheng Yujin walked into the study. Her face was cold and her voice was calm. She looked the same as usual. Forsythia and Du Ruo look at each other, dare not mention the topic just now.
The crown princess was obviously in a bad mood. Even Du Ruo, the old people who came from his mother's home, did not dare to speak, let alone other people. Ciqing palace is quiet, quiet and depressing.
When Li Chengjing learned that a maid in waiting came out of the former palace, she went directly to the back. His heart sank slightly. Most of the palace maids reported the news. Li Chengjing was negligent. After the discussion, he immediately came to the palace.
After entering the palace, Li Chengjing found the atmosphere in the palace unspeakably dull. Li Chengjing's conjecture became more and more inventive. He and his palace maid asked Cheng Yujin where she was and went straight to the study.
Li Chengjing comes in and sees Cheng Yujin drawing. He took a light step, took the dish full of red pills to Cheng Yujin, and said, "are you painting Mid Autumn Festival patterns for Mingqian Mingyue?"
Li Chengjing put the pigment she was going to use closer. She was about to stand on the side to see Cheng Yujin's painting, but Cheng Yujin suddenly put down her pen, put away the scroll from one side, and said, "I don't dare to trouble your highness to do it. I just want to do it myself."
Li Chengjing's hands are empty and his eyebrows move. He slowly looks at Cheng Yujin.
Cheng Yujin lowered her eyes and put several plates of pigment back into the box, as if she didn't find Li Chengjing standing by. Li Chengjing took back his hand, holding his sleeve behind him, and said, "do you hear me?"
Cheng Yujin tidied up the scroll and the paint, put them in order, and then went out: "I don't know what your highness is talking about."
Li Chengjing suddenly reaches out to hold her arm. His strength is so strong that he can hold Cheng Yujin firmly. Cheng Yujin pulled her hand hard and tried several times without breaking free. Li Chengjing turned her around and forced her to look into her eyes: "don't you ask me at all?"
Cheng Yujin is still trying to struggle. When she hears Li Chengjing's words, she gently picks her eyebrows and thinks it's very funny: "the front footed maid has just come, and the rear footed Royal Highness has just come back. Do I need to ask more? "
Holding back his anger, Li Chengjing said calmly as far as possible: "that maid in waiting divulges secrets privately and spreads false information, she should be punished. Where is she? "
"No way." Cheng Yujin finally broke away from Li Chengjing's hand, stepped back, looked up straight at Li Chengjing's eyes, "Your Highness, what do you mean? If you punish her this time, who dares to send me a message in the future? "
Li Chengjing was slightly angry: "her behavior is against the rules of the palace, divulges secrets privately, and stirs up the relationship between you and me. If she is not severely punished, it is not enough to convince the public."
"Is her behavior against the rules of the palace, or against the rules of the crown prince?" Cheng Yujin suddenly raised her voice and asked. She stares at Li Chengjing with frost in her eyes and eyebrows: "in the past, when palace people reported his Highness's itinerary, you never investigated with me. Now the palace maid secretly passed the news to me before you accepted the imperial concubine, and finally angered his highness?"Li Chengjing took a deep breath, took a step forward, took her shoulder and said, "I've never had this plan. When I first got married, you thought I was attracted to your beauty and forced you to be my concubine. When I got married, you wanted to plug me in order to appease the queen. Now, with just a few words from a maid in waiting, you doubt that I want to accept the concubine? In your heart, you never trusted me, did you
Cheng Yujin's eyes suddenly burst with water. She suddenly turned her head and broke Li Chengjing's hand. However, with all her strength, she couldn't shake his arm. She struggled to no avail, turned her head and glared at Li Chengjing: "let go."
Li Chengjing turned a blind eye, still staring at her eyes, as if to see her heart: "why don't you answer my question? After two years of marriage, have you ever trusted me? Have you ever been moved? "
They have been married for two years since last month. In the past two years, they have never quarreled or even had a cold war or quarrel. Outsiders spread this story as a good story. They praised the prince and princess for being gentle and reasonable, and never quarreled. However, the fairy tale will come to an end. This is their first and only quarrel since they got married.
Cheng Yujin and Li Chengjing are both cautious and thoughtful, unlike other couples who quarrel with each other. But sometimes, when two people quarrel, the conflict will be dispersed. Like Cheng Yujin and Li Chengjing, they have been depositing and repressing all the time. Once they break out, it will be a fatal crisis.
Cheng Yujin's emotion is thin and cool, and self-interest is supreme. When Li Chengjing got married, she felt that it didn't matter, as long as she was with him. But in fact, people are selfish and greedy. Li Chengjing's feelings for Cheng Yujin are very clear. These years, Cheng Yujin will laugh at him and be gentle and considerate. What she did was so perfect. Li Chengjing couldn't help but wonder if Cheng Yujin was such a good wife for any other man. Would Cheng Yujin treat him like this for any other man?
Li Chengjing didn't want to think about these things. It was hard to be confused. Once he understood some things, he couldn't go back. Li Chengjing has been telling herself in her heart that this is also good. She and her children are all around her. They have both children and a harmonious family. Everyone praises that all these things are perfect enough. What else does he want?
However, today's incident of Nai side imperial concubine ignited Li Chengjing's deep suspicion. Without a word, Cheng Yujin recognized that he wanted to be the daughter of general Dong. In her heart, what was he? In the past two years, she has been together day and night. Has she ever put him in her heart?
The incident of the side imperial concubine is at best an introduction, and their suspicion of each other's feelings is the root of the dispute. This hidden danger is extremely fatal, but both of them don't say it. They are still gentle and considerate when they get along with each other. They prefer to aggrieve themselves, constantly ponder at the bottom of their heart in private, and never show up in front of others. The contradiction between the two of them is not obvious in ordinary days, until today, it has finally exploded.
When Cheng Yujin heard Li Chengjing's words, her tears rolled in her eyes: "what do you say? How dare you question me like that? "
When Li Chengjing saw Cheng Yujin crying, he was obviously stunned, and his strength in his hand was unconsciously relaxed. Cheng Yujin didn't notice that the shackles on her shoulders were loosened. She tried her best to endure. Tears still fell from her eyes: "what qualifications do you have to question me? You are going to accept the side of the imperial concubine, I have not put you in the heart, there is a difference for you? Is it true that your highness also thinks that I should defend myself for you. You are the only one in my heart, but you can have three wives and four concubines and support each other? Li Chengjing, even my father, who has always been looked down upon by people in the capital, has never made such demands on his wife and concubine. "
The feeling in Li Chengjing's heart is very difficult to say, but he says, "do you compare me with Cheng Yuanxian again?"
"The prince plans strategies step by step. Of course, my father is not worthy to compare with his highness." Cheng Yujin still had tears in the corner of her eyes, but her eyes were aggressive. "Now her Royal Highness has been framed by a traitor and has been taken from the east palace. The people and officials are very aggrieved by her royal highness. At this moment, her royal highness should conform to the people's will, bring order out of chaos, kill demons, and restore heaven and earth. The next thing your highness wants to do is so important. Of course, the more troops, the better. The bigger the influence, the better. Your Highness has been planning for so long. Why did you hesitate at the last step? If you take the daughter of general Dong as your servant, you will be good to the East Palace and general Dong. You can also harvest a daughter who is infatuated with your highness. What is your highness hesitating about? Anyway, I've got Mingqian Mingyue. Your highness doesn't have to worry about his eldest son any more. As a crown princess, I should know the truth and support your Highness's career unconditionally. Don't worry, your highness. I will never be your resistance. "
"I never thought about concubines." Li Chengjing found that Cheng Yujin was angry now and tried to avoid this topic, "calm down first. Princess Nashi is just a proposal of the staff, which I have rejected. The maid in waiting only heard half of it, which is not the case
"If you don't show similar meaning, will the staff make such suggestions?" Cheng Yujin didn't care. Her eyes were so bright that a knife would fly out of her eyes. "So you really think so? You want to marry someone else, but you want me to be loyal to you. Worried that I didn't agree with you, he took the lead and said that I didn't care about you and never trusted you. Even Cheng Yuanxian is inferior to you in such a way! "
Li Chengjing found that he didn't say anything at all, so he sighed and said, "I won't argue with you. We'll talk about it when you calm down.""Reasonable is reasonable, and unreasonable is unreasonable. The more the argument, the clearer the truth. What does the prince mean when he says he won't argue with me? Do you think I'm trying to be reasonable? "
Li Chengjing was so blocked that he couldn't speak. He used to watch Huo Changyuan's excitement, but he didn't expect that one day, he would also be scolded.
Li Chengjing finally realized the feelings of Ruan, Huo Xueshi, Huo Changyuan and others. Cheng Yujin was too able to say it, and had no power to reply. It was wrong to say anything, even more wrong not to say it. Li Chengjing completely gave up reasoning with Cheng Yujin and held her up: "well, what you say is what, I can't argue with you. But the concubine thing is pure you wronged me. You can't help listening to me finish the last half of the sentence. "
