Chapter 31 (2/2)
“He still refuses to forgive me…….” The Imperial Consort’s eyes reddened. Vehemently clutching the handkerchief in her hands, she seemed to use all her power to close her eyes. When she opened her eyes again, they were filled with ruthlessness; clenching her teeth she said: “He actually dares to marry other people. Find out that woman’s ident.i.ty now, I want her to live worse than death!”
“Yes.” The maid beside her trembled; all these years, those women in Ninth Huang Shu’s side, they didn’t die tragically without any reason. This time Ninth Huang Shu actually made such a great fanfare for a woman, how could the Imperial Consort let this go?
Xiao Chen and Jing Yue, two persons went out of the palace. Inside the carriage, Xiao Chen became weirdly silent; the appearance of that cold face made Jing Yue slightly knitted her brows. She always felt there was something strange between Xiao Chen and that Imperial Consort, however, she didn’t know whether she should ask or not.
Xiao Chen, who had been silent along the way out of the palace, suddenly got down from the carriage and walked away; only giving an instruction to the people below to bring Jing Yue back into the w.a.n.gfu.
Inside a room, Jing Yue was lying on her stomach above a coach, completely lack of image; eating the grapes in her hands, she opened her mouth slightly, looked at Yin Qiao who was folding clothes beside her and asked: “Yin Qiao, you say, Xiao Chen and Imperial Consort actually have what kind of relation a?”
“Huang Fei, you don’t know?” Yin Qiao, somewhat flabbergasted, blinked her eyes looking at Jing Yue.
“Know what?” Jing yue sat her body up; seeing Yin Qiao’s looks; it seemed there were some gossips to be heard.
“No…… Nothing.” Yin Qiao hung her head down at once, not daring to speak.
“Speak!” Jing Yue frowned as she looked Yin Qiao who didn’t finish her words; suddenly, she raised her brows in resentment.
“Huang Fei, all the people in the Imperial City know about this matter. At that time, Consort G.o.ddess was not Consort G.o.ddess yet, she and Ninth Huang Shu had been engaged to each other before they were born, and they were beautiful couple that people talk about the most in the entire Dong Qing country. However, later, don’t know why, Consort G.o.ddess actually entered the palace.”
Yin Qiao’s small face was tangled as she spoke. Jing Yue’s eyes widened after she finished hearing; this Imperial Consort was actually Xiao Chen’s former wife from his prior engagement that was arranged even before he was born.
