The princess does not have a bridal chamber

Chapter 114

Ziyue Kingdom seems to have regained its former tranquility, and that failed palace change may be gradually forgotten by people and become a topic of conversation after dinner.

Although Hua Rongrong and Shangguan Chen have not recovered as close as before, the people in the Palace can clearly see that the relationship between the two has improved a lot.The servants often saw the prince and the princess strolling leisurely in the backyard, talking and laughing.

This kind of life is very simple, but it makes Hua Rongrong feel satisfied like never before.

"Why didn't you tell me, what exactly is it that I can't remember?" Shangguan Chen sat opposite Hua Rongrong in the gazebo and asked with tea.

Hua Rongrong smiled: "It's actually nothing, Third Master, have you been feeling better these few days?"

"It's okay." Shangguan Chen said, stroking the wound on his heart, still a little aching.

"I may have to leave for a while in a few days, you have to take good care of yourself." After hesitating for a long time in his heart, Hua Rongrong finally told Shangguan Chen a white lie.Although she was very reluctant, she had to find medicine for Shangguan Chen, otherwise...

Hearing this, Shangguan Chen Jian raised his eyebrows, feeling a little displeased in his heart: "Where are you going?"

"Go to the north to find someone. If you hurry up, you will be back in about half a month." Hua Rongrong looked at him calmly.

Shangguan Chen remained silent, and took a deep look at her: "Can't we go later?"

"Well, I can't break my promise. Don't worry, I will come back as soon as possible." Seeing that Shangguan Chen didn't seem very happy, Hua Rongrong quickly promised.

After pondering for a long time, Shangguan Chen asked slowly, "When do you plan to leave?"

"Five days later." Shangguanyu was still in the prison, she had promised to keep him alive, so she still had to get this matter done first. "I'm going to the palace tomorrow, can you accompany me?"

"For Shangguanyu?" Shangguanchen's surprise made her a little caught off guard.

"Well," she nodded slightly.

"I'll go with you." Shangguan Chen looked at her.

"Huh?" Hua Rongrong was even more unbelievable, he actually offered to accompany her into the palace, and it was for the younger brother who wanted him to die. "You don't ask why?"

"This is just a favor for the father. The father will not kill him. If he really wanted to be punished, he would have killed him long ago." Shangguan Chen's eyes were a little deep, and there was a complexity in it that Hua Rongrong could not understand.

"Okay!" Hua Rongrong smiled and nodded without delving into Shangguan Chen's meaning.

Shangguanchen was still the same Shangguanchen, but Hua Rongrong still felt a little strange.She couldn't tell what was wrong, and always felt that his tenderness was a little far away from her.

Perhaps, she was too greedy and thought too much, Hua Rongrong shook off the thoughts in her heart, and said to herself.

The next day, Shangguan Chen really called someone to urge Hua Rongrong to freshen up and enter the palace early in the morning.

"Or, you'd better go back to the mansion. I'll go alone. I'm afraid that my father will be furious and take it out on you." On the way to the palace, Hua Rongrong felt a little uneasy.

Shangguan Chen raised the corners of his lips: "Don't worry, even if Father is angry, it's only on the surface. After all, Shangguanyu is the crown prince, and all this is done by Concubine Shu behind the scenes. Apart from returning from the northwest privately, Shangguanyu has nothing to die for." Evidence of the crime. Father will not let him die so easily."

Hua Rongrong had no choice but to remain silent, she could not see or play with this kind of political tactics.From the beginning to the end, she was still the Hua Rongrong who was not good at playing tricks.

Shangguan Chen seemed to see her thoughts, and said indifferently: "Only when the power is balanced, the power will not fall to one side, which is not good for the emperor. Do you understand?"

Hua Rongrong nodded, it's not that she doesn't understand these principles, it's just that it's hard to understand.

But Shangguan Chen didn't speak any more, and closed his eyes and leaned against the carriage to rest his mind.

The carriage fell into silence, Hua Rongrong looked at Shangguan Chen, then lifted the curtain to look outside.

Kyoto is still prosperous, and the palace change did not cause any trouble to these low-level people.In fact, for these ordinary people, tranquility is what they want, and it really doesn't matter who is the emperor.

Time flies so fast, in the blink of an eye, she has lived and lived here as Hua Rongrong for so many years.The ups and downs in life have also been experienced in these short years.It seems that the essence of life has been condensed. After experiencing so many things, many things that were once important to her have become no longer important.

Or, really simply is happiness.

In her meditation, the carriage quickly entered the palace.

Shangguan Chen reminded in a low voice: "It's time to get off the carriage and meet the emperor."

Only then did Hua Rongrong recover from her own world, and smiled apologetically.

"Why are you so preoccupied?" Shangguan Chen asked casually.

"It's nothing, I'm just lamenting the impermanence of the world." Hua Rongrong found a perfunctory excuse.Shangguan Chen didn't continue to ask after hearing the words, and walked side by side to the Imperial Study Room.

The two people came to the imperial study, and the eunuch invited them in directly, saying that the emperor had been waiting for a long time.

Hua Rongrong and Shangguan Chen looked at each other.Hua Rongrong could clearly see a flash of anger in Shangguan Chen's eyes, and she also had a strange feeling in her heart.

The emperor didn't believe in his son at all, and this move was nothing more than a warning to Shangguanchen, no matter what you do, I will find out.

The anger in Shangguan Chen's eyes was only fleeting, and immediately he walked in as if nothing had happened.

"Chen'er, Rongrong, you are here." As soon as the two entered the imperial study, they heard the emperor smiling gently.

"I have seen my father."

"Okay, this is the Imperial Study Room, you don't need to be too polite. Come and see how my painting looks." Holding a brush in his hand, the emperor pointed to the rice paper on the table with great interest.

Shangguan Chen stepped forward first, took a look at the emperor's calligraphy, and then said respectfully: "Father's painting skills are really extraordinary, this beauty is compelling and lifelike."

Hua Rongrong also took a closer look, and couldn't help admiring: "I didn't expect my father to be so good at Dan Qing, my father, Rong Rong is greedy, can I ask my father to give this picture of a lady to Rong Rong?"

"Hahaha..." The emperor was elated with these words, "Why not? I will send you off." After finishing speaking, he wanted to pick up the seal on the side to cover it, but he accidentally touched the inkstone and dropped it. Drops of ink on the lady illustration.

"Oh, look at this, as you get older, it's always inevitable to be careless." The emperor patted himself on the head, and then grabbed the painting and tore it off without hesitation.

"Father, this..." Hua Rongrong didn't have time to say no, the lifelike portrait of a lady had already been broken into pieces.In fact, she wanted to say that such traces would not affect the painting at all.

"Rongrong, you don't understand. In my eyes, there is no room for flaws. A stain is a stain, and it can't be erased. Looking at it, I always feel uncomfortable. Since it is for you, I will send you a perfect one. After a while, I will draw another one for you." The emperor said with a smile.

Hua Rongrong's heart trembled when she heard it, she understood the meaning of the emperor's words.The emperor is warning, warning her and Shangguan Chen.

Glancing secretly at Shangguanchen, Shangguanchen was as calm as ever, without any disturbance.

Although he knew that the emperor would not kill Shangguan Yu, he was waiting for them to speak.But she also hesitated, whether she should open this mouth or not.

"Father is right." Shangguan Chen bowed and turned to look at Hua Rongrong: "Rong Rong, don't be too presumptuous."

"Father, Rong Rong is getting greedy." Hua Rongrong hurriedly knelt down, "But Father, you didn't mean to be careless, so Rong Rong still feels a little regretful."

"Girl, just say what you want to say. I promise I won't do anything to you." The emperor sat down and looked straight at Huarongrong, the light in his eyes was fleeting.

Hua Rongrong knelt there, "Father, Rong Rong wants to say..."

Before he could say anything, he was interrupted by Shangguan Chen: "Father, my son is here to intercede for the seventh brother. Please spare the death of the seventh brother. After all, the mastermind behind this matter is Concubine Shu. For the prince, if he is beheaded, he may be made a fuss by someone with a heart, causing civil turmoil."

The emperor's face suddenly turned cold, and his tone became cold: "Chen'er, don't you know how much Yu'er's actions have made me sad? He is already a prince, but he did such a treacherous thing. If I don't kill him, How to convince the public?"

"Father, once the crown prince dies, there will be great changes in the court. Father, for the sake of the court, please let him live." Shangguan Chen faced the emperor's fierce gaze, and looked straight into the majestic eyes of the emperor.

"Hmph, chaos in the court? Chen'er, what do you mean?"

"My son, please let the emperor let him live." Shangguan Chen knelt down.

"Okay, okay, you actually interceded for a rebellious younger brother." The emperor laughed angrily.

Shangguan Chen said neither humble nor overbearing: "Father, he is also your son."

These words caused the emperor to slowly put down his hands that were about to be clapped. He took a deep look at Shangguan Chen, and said after a long time, "Chen'er, when did you become so kind? People who are dying will never show mercy. Yu'er, I never thought of letting you live."

"Because, my son knows that only the presence of an opponent can make him stronger." Shangguan Chen raised his head, with an obsession in his eyes that the emperor couldn't understand.

"Well, only your opponent can make you strong! Since you say so, then I will allow you!" The emperor sneered.

"My son thanked my father."

"Go down if you have nothing to do!" The emperor waved his hand and stopped looking at them.

The two looked at each other, "Yes, Erchen (Rong Rong) is leaving!"

After speaking, the two backed out at the same time.

They didn't see that the moment they turned around, a strange smile flashed across the emperor's face.

Leaving the imperial study room, Huarong let out a sigh of relief.Only then did she realize that her vest was covered in cold sweat.Sure enough, the emperor's mind was the most difficult to guess.Obviously he wouldn't kill Shangguanyu, but even a favor would be like killing someone.For a moment just now, she thought the emperor would order the guards to drag them down.

In this way, the consequences are a bit hanging.Now that the emperor has complied with Shangguan Chen's request, Hua Rongrong still has lingering fears.

"Are you afraid?" Without warning, Shangguan Chen took her hand and held it, looking at her with burning eyes.

In an instant, a sense of security surged up, and she shook her head: "You are here, I am not afraid!"
