The Pearl on the Emperor’s Crown - Chapter 22
[Chapter 22]
Yiyi suddenly felt resentment in her heart, and smiled faintly: “You are the girl the son likes.”
Jue didn’t speak.
“Young Master Xie is not a sympathetic person, the girl will know by looking at me.” Yiyi untied the loose thin shirt on her body to reveal herself more thoroughly in front of Zhu Yi. Her skin was also greasy, and more traces appeared after removing the cover. This is more than not pity, it is simply bullying.
A disgusting feeling hit Zhu Yi’s chest, making her almost nauseous. She thought that Dunlon was a normal thing, but she didn’t expect it to be so ugly, which made her feel a heavy cloud of that kind of thing in her heart. .
Yiyi said: “Sister, for my poor sake, please, don’t let me leave the son. Although the son doesn’t cherish me… I still admire him.”
Wen Yan said angrily, “What nonsense are you talking about? Who is our son, how can you be slandered like this? I didn’t know who he was hanging out with just now.”
Zhu Yi was calm, she said to Yiyi: “put your clothes on first. Since you know that he doesn’t cherish you, you should cherish yourself.”
Yiyi was stunned for a moment, she thought that as soon as her body was exposed, the little girl would cry and sprint away from the door, but she didn’t expect that she not only stayed, but also said such things to her. Yiyi is funny, cherish yourself? No one taught her to cherish herself since she was a child.
Wen Yan frowned and said, “I told you to put on your clothes. Can’t you hear? Who is this look for?”
Only then did Yiyi close the top, but the bottom robe did not hide it, and most of her slender legs were exposed, as if she wanted to embarrass Zhu Yi and Wen Yan in this way.
Zhu Yi waited for her to buckle the last jade flower button, and asked, “When and where did you and Mr. Xie know each other?” Her tone was flat, staring at Yiyi’s expression.
Yiyi said in her heart, but fortunately, the son was thoughtful and had already taught her the answer: “I didn’t know the son for a long time. Just over ten days ago, he redeemed me in the Sangyang Jade Continent.”
Zhu Yi clenched his hands and said again: “Since Jade Island is in Sangyang, when will he bring you into the capital?”
Yiyi replied, “Just three days ago.”
Zhu Yi kept asking, “Did you two enter Beijing in a carriage or what?”
Yiyi’s eyes finally flickered. It’s impossible for the young master to think of all the problems, what’s more, the young master and she both felt that this tender-faced little girl should have run away early in the morning. Then he said, “The girl questioned me why I did so much? You just need to know that the son is willing to take me with him.”
Zhu Yi said: “I’ll ask you clearly, so that I can decide for you and let Xie Gongzi accept you.”
Yiyi thought about it for a while, and said, “We rode a carriage for a while, and then rode a horse for a while.” She then raised her hand to caress her shoulder, deliberately annoyed Zhu Yi: “There are two teeth marks here, the son is still in the carriage. It was bitten by a concubine.”
Yiyi’s demeanor made Zhu Yi’s disgust come out again. She was completely relieved, but her face was still straight, and she only said, “Wenyan, let’s go.”
When Zhu Yi came out, Xie Ying happened to be outside the house. He looked at Zhu Yi: “Shen Xingliu said that the princess is looking for me.”
“Don’t go in.” Zhu Yi remembered Yiyi’s disheveled appearance, put his hands on Xie Ying’s chest and pushed him back a few steps.
Xie Ying took the opportunity to hold Zhu Yi’s hand, he looked at Shen Xingliu, and Shen Xingliu entered the room knowingly. Xie Ying and Zhu Yi entered another room.
Zhu Yi looked at Xie Ying, his eyes were clear, and he was not drunk, so he asked, “Where did you go?”
“I’m playing chess with people outside, what’s wrong?” Xie Ying helped Zhu Yi pin his ears off.
Jue avoided the slight itch from his fingertips. Playing chess, why did the prince say he didn’t find him? She then said: “The prince thinks that if the matter between the two of us is known, who is most likely to arouse jealousy?”
“This…” Xie Ying pondered: “The princess is so good, I have been preparing to be hated by many people.”
If Xie Ying usually praised her, Zhu Yi must be complacent, but now she is in such a mood, she only said: “I’m not joking, I mean it. Besides, what do you think you are…” Zhu Yi stopped. , Xie Ying thought he was not enough to attract bees and butterflies? There is a Yan Yuer upstairs. I’m afraid there are more people who hate her.
Zhu Yi said: “It’s the people on this boat, who do you think wants us to be together the most?”
When Xie Ying heard this, he immediately understood what the prince must have done tonight. He whispered two names in Zhu Yi’s ear without any hesitation, Zhu Yi looked at Xie Ying, there is actually a prince? Then she understood again that the prince and the queen naturally wanted Xie Ying to marry Zhu Dai. So, tonight’s arrangement… Was it made by the Crown Prince? Zhu Yi thought of the woman’s face again, still feeling a little uncomfortable.
After Zhu Yi went up, Shen Xingliu reported the situation to Xie Ying, and he did some ideological struggle before telling the prince that the woman looked a bit like a princess and had scars on her body. When speaking, Shen Xingliu lowered his head, not daring to look at Xie Ying’s expression at all. They are all men, and they all understand without saying anything. Even a stand-in has been tossed into this way.
There was no expression on Xie Ying’s face, the prince had indeed been smooth sailing for too long. None of the princes can compete with him, and there is already a group of capable people who can handle government affairs for him. It is no wonder that so much energy can be spent on women.
Xie Ying then said: “Wait a few days, let’s get rid of the prince’s matter.” Shen Xingliu dared not decide, so he asked, “Which one does the prince think is suitable?”
Xie Ying thought for a while: “Prince got too much profit from Datong Mansion’s mining tax, and he has to let others get a share of the pie.”
Shen Xingliu immediately understood and said, “My subordinates will make arrangements tomorrow.”
When Yiyi told the prince Zhu Yi the question, the prince raised his hand and slapped her onto the bed. He said, “It’s useless.” But beyond Yiyi’s expectation, the prince didn’t mean to abandon her. Back to the previous house.
——
Longguo Temple was the first royal temple of the dynasty. Compared with other royal relatives, Zhu Yi was a frequent visitor here. The temple even reserved an exclusive guest room for her.
Xie Ying lived across from Zhu Yi’s wing. If there were no heavy flowers and trees in the center of the courtyard, they could just see each other across the courtyard. With the flower and tree barrier, they can’t see each other, and it is easy to grasp the movement of the whole yard.
Because the back is against the mountain, it is cooler than the palace, but there are many mosquitoes. The monk had already cleaned the room with duckweed and realgar, and the little maid ordered the mugwort incense cage and hung it on the green gauze tent.
Xie Ying would not be greeted coldly wherever he went. The abbot of Longguo Temple, Xu Neng, personally welcomed him into his husband’s room. Zhu Yi was so happy that she still had arrangements in Longguo Temple. If Xie Ying was asked to follow her step by step, she would really have a headache.
When Xie Ying returned to the courtyard, it was already dark, and he asked, “What did the princess do in the afternoon?”
Wen Yan reported truthfully: “The princess went to the Buddhist hall first, and then came back when she felt distressed, and called a doctor to come and see the doctor.”
Xie Ying put down the tea that Shen Xingliu presented, and said, “My heart hurts? Where is the doctor, who went to look for it.”
“The eunuch beside the princess often comes to invite him outside the temple.” Wen Yan was not sure: “It should be at the nearby medical center, and it came very quickly.”
“Male and female, what’s your age?”
Wen Yan said, “Male, looks in his forties.”
Xie Ying knew that this was a pain in his heart. This was seeing Pei Qingrang’s old department. He sat for a while, then got up and went across.
When she came to the closed door, Xie Ying raised her hand and knocked. It was Mianfeng who opened the door. She was stunned and asked, “Is there something wrong with the prince? The princess is taking a bath.”
The wing room in the temple is not as spacious as the palace. Xie Ying’s eyes and ears are sensitive to ordinary people. At this time, he can hear the sound of water pouring down from the wooden spoon in the clean room. This sound of water attracts people to look in the direction of the outgoing subconsciously.
After taking a bath, Zhu Yi wore Ai Lu’s middle and skirt. She casually put on a snow-white mist gauze shirt, which reached to her thighs, revealing a blue-like skirt. His face was red from the steam, and his black satin-like hair was scattered behind him, looking as refreshing as a green plum.
Zhu Yi just entered the room with a plain embroidered gorse ivory handle and a fan, and her footsteps stopped. Xie Ying was lying on her bed halfway in the dove’s nest, flipping through a book she was reading in the afternoon. Zhu Yi thought for a while, then turned back and said, “I’ll be alone for a while, if I don’t tell you, don’t come in.” Mianfeng and the others answered yes.
