Concubine's true colors

Chapter 154
After a while, Zhou Xianyu wiped away the tears coughed up from the corners of his eyes, swallowed all the snacks in his mouth, and immediately asked:
"Fifth Brother, what you said is true. Xuan'er made this ginger tea for me? When did she come to your Prince Rui's residence? I'll go find her right now."

Seeing that Zhou Xianyu got up and was about to go out, Zhou Xianrui hurriedly stopped him, knowing that the other party had misunderstood.

"Seventh brother, please sit down first. It is true that the tea ingredients were prepared by the fourth lady, but how can she cook tea in my house now? You are so impatient, I really don't know when you will get rid of it."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xianyu, who was originally full of joy, sat down again with a disappointed expression, and then muttered:

"Fifth brother, you know that I haven't seen Jinxuan for two days, and now you still make fun of me with this tea. It was obviously given to you by Xuaner, but you actually said it was specially prepared for me. If she really If you have this thought, why don't you send it directly to my Royal Palace."

Zhou Xianyu babbled angrily, but he still pushed the ginseng tea in his hand to Zhou Xianrui, then silently took the ginger tea that he despised just now into his hand, and then wrinkled Eyebrow, took two sips while it was hot.

Seeing Zhou Xianyu, who never tasted ginger at all, drinking ginger tea with relish, Zhou Xianrui couldn't help shaking his head and laughing twice.

"I didn't know who it was just now, and said that I would not drink this ginger tea even if I was killed. Now I know that it is the tea made by Miss Si. I think you are very satisfied with it, but this tea is indeed specially prepared by Miss Si for you. , this king never lied to you."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xianyu's beautiful phoenix eyes dimmed, and then he said with some self-deprecation:
"This is tea made by Xuan'er herself. Not to mention the ginger in it, I can't waste any of it even if it is poisoned. But what did Brother Wu mean by what you said just now? Avoid me, she is so tired of me, how can she make tea for me, so don't comfort me."

After the Lantern Festival farewell, Zhou Xianyu had never seen Xiao Jinxuan, and he finally realized what it means to live like a year.

It's not that he didn't think about sneaking directly into the Forsythia Courtyard, even if he just took a look at Xiao Jinxuan from a distance, he still felt that the pain of lovesickness could be relieved.

But after thinking about it, he dismissed this idea again, because after meeting Xiao Jinxuan this time when he returned to Beijing, he felt a decisive sense of alienation from the other party.

Although Xiao Jinxuan was lukewarm towards him when he was in Yangzhou, but when she was happy, she would smile at him.When being entangled by him and losing his sense of proportion, he will also show a panicked and helpless expression.

But now no matter what he said or did, Xiao Jinxuan's reaction was indifferent and repulsive, so Zhou Xianyu didn't dare to visit the Lisanqiao Courtyard in private, for fear of making Xiao Jinxuan even more unhappy and alienating and ignoring him.

Zhou Xianyu was never afraid that Xiao Jinxuan would get angry with him, annoy him, or even hate him.But what really scares him is the other party's indifference, ignorance, and coldness.

Zhou Xianyu, who has always been unrestrained and unrestrained, thought about these things, his face became more confused and melancholy, he lowered his head and took another sip of ginger tea, only then did he feel that his heart was finally warmed up.

Taking a panoramic view of Zhou Xianyu's expression, Zhou Xianrui said in a low voice after being silent for a while:
"Seventh brother, you feel that the fourth lady is more indifferent to you than before. In fact, it is because of her heart, and the more distant she is from you, the more she cares about you, so since she decided to get along with the other party If you stay for the rest of your life, then cheer up, this look of no fighting spirit doesn't match up with you, the majestic King of the Great Zhou."

Seeing that Zhou Xianyu heard this and looked at himself, Zhou Xianrui took a sip of ginseng tea before continuing:

"You can see the two cups of tea in front of us. In fact, the cup for my brother was also sent by the fourth lady. Its effect is to refresh and replenish energy. It seems that the fourth lady knows that I often stay up late, so she sent it specially. This kind of ginseng tea."

Then he pointed at Zhou Xianyu's tea, and said with a smile:

"It's interesting to say, when Bai Zhu delivered the tea two days ago, he specifically asked that if the seventh brother came to my house, I would definitely ask you to taste this ginger tea. You also know that ginger tea is best for dispelling cold. Then I guessed that Miss Si jumped into the lake to soak her whole body when she saw you that day, so she was worried that you would catch the cold, so she specially brought this tea to you."

Hearing this, Zhou Xianyu's eyes lit up, he smiled happily, and then asked in doubt:
"Listening to Fifth Brother, Xuan'er really left this tea for me on purpose, but since she wanted me to drink it, why did she send it to you? If I don't come to your house for a few days, wouldn't it be half a mouthful?" If you can't drink anymore, it is said that a woman's heart is a needle in the bottom of her heart, my brother has been confused now, and I really can't figure out what Xuan'er is thinking."

Seeing Zhou Xianyu's eyebrows were almost wrinkled and knotted, Zhou Xianrui sighed, a trace of pity flashed in the depths of his eyes.

"Actually, you can't figure out Miss Fourth's thoughts. That's because when you were in the frontier, you didn't see at all. When she found out that you were seriously injured and unconscious, she blamed herself for being out of control. My mansion is full of drunkenness, and all the people talking about it are you."

Unbelievably stunned there, Zhou Xianyu couldn't imagine that Xiao Jinxuan, who has always been calm and cold, would lose her composure to the point of getting drunk because of him, but knowing that Zhou Xianrui would not tell lies to lie to him, Zhou Xianyu's heart immediately Feeling a pain, and anxiously asked:

"Fifth brother, what happened later, why did you let Jinxuan drink alcohol? It's going to hurt her body, but what to do, it's because the people around me are stupid. When I was unconscious, I sent you the letter I wrote in advance." Come back, otherwise Xuan'er wouldn't know about the serious injury, and she wouldn't have to be sad because of me, but my younger brother still doesn't understand. According to my elder brother, then Jinxuan should have affection for me, so why should I An Ran is back, but she doesn't want to talk to me anymore."

Hearing this, Zhou Xianrui stood up, walked to the door of the study, squinted his eyes and looked out, and said in a low voice:

"When the seventh brother was in Yangzhou, he must have known about the past of the fourth lady. When she was born, all the servants in the courtyard died strangely, so she was considered a disaster. Anyone who treats her well or gets close to her, Then she will be plagued by bad luck, and will be beaten to death in the end. So she was sent to Zhuangzi when she was born, and she returned to Xiao's mansion not long after we went to Yangzhou, and got acquainted with you and me."

Regarding Xiao Jinxuan's past, Zhou Xianyu cared about Xiao Jinxuan's past, so he naturally investigated it very clearly. When he heard the word nemesis, he smiled sarcastically, and then preached contemptuously :
"What kind of disaster star came to the world, if you want to make people die quietly and peacefully, there are no less than ten ways for this king to do it. I think it is because someone is seeking revenge on the Xiao family, which is why Jinxuan got hurt. , she was born with such an unknown reputation, and she suffered so much because of it, if I knew who was behind it back then, I would definitely not be able to spare him!"

Because Zhou Xianyu is a warrior on the battlefield, countless enemies have died in his hands, so he is fine when he is lazy, but once he gets angry, he will naturally show a strong evil spirit, which makes people look at him. I can't help but feel frightened.

And Zhou Xianrui looked at Zhou Xianyu, whose eyes were glowing with scarlet blood, immediately frowned and said softly:

"Xianyu hasn't suppressed the murderous aura in your heart yet, your bloodthirsty aura is getting stronger and stronger now, if you don't know how to control it on weekdays, you will definitely be harmed by it sooner or later."

Hearing these words, Zhou Xianyu, who had a gloomy expression, had a flash of annoyance in his eyes, and then within a few breaths, he dissipated all the evil spirits around him, and returned to his lazy and casual appearance.

"Fifth brother, don't worry about my affairs. After many years in the battlefield, the evil spirit in this body is already hard to get rid of, but don't worry, I won't be difficult to suppress, just become bloodthirsty and easy to kill."

Once upon a time, there was a warrior from the Beirong Kingdom, who was brave and good at fighting, unmatched by anyone, but because of too many killings, he was finally disturbed by the evil spirit, lost his normalcy, became only knowing about killing blindly, and finally ended up committing suicide fate.

Therefore, when Zhou Xianrui first saw Zhou Xianyu's eyes that would turn red when he was angry, he began to remind the other party to control his murderous aura and never follow the old path of that titan.

And after Zhou Xianyu adjusted his breath, he didn't take his own affairs to heart at all, instead he asked anxiously:

"Fifth brother, do you mean that Xuan'er deliberately distanced herself from me because she was worried that her unknown fate would bring me bad luck? Are you kidding me? Didn't I have a veteran when I was born, and said that I was a malevolent star? Well, isn't that a good match for her as a catastrophe, not to mention that I am so hard-working, she can easily restrain me."

Seeing Zhou Xianyu's indifferent appearance, Zhou Xianrui couldn't help shaking his head and said with a wry smile:

"You don't care at all, but Fourth Miss thinks that you were seriously injured because she was too close to you. That day she came to my house late at night regardless of the darkness, holding your bloody letter, Crying heartbroken. Later, she was drunk and babbling, and said that if she didn't like you, she would keep her heart sealed up, and she wouldn't hurt you. She also said that she was a heartless person, and she shouldn't pray for affection."

With a "click", the teacup in Zhou Xianyu's hand was crushed abruptly by him, and his face was full of distress and self-blame.

"Fifth brother, don't talk about it. I'm going to find Xuan'er right away. I want to tell her face to face. Don't say that I never believed that she would restrain others. Even if Xuan'er is really the reincarnation of a disaster star, let alone restrain me. Seriously injured, even if I take my life, Zhou Xianyu is willing to give it to her. This stupid woman actually alienated me for such a ridiculous reason, which caused me to be worried for so long. I have to find her to settle the score now. "

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Xianyu walked out angrily, but Zhou Xianrui stood by the door and blocked him.

"Seventh brother, you can't be confused. You should be clear about Miss Fourth's temperament. Even if you don't care, if she is confused, I'm afraid the more trouble you make, the more you will drive her farther away. In the end, she will be helpless." When redeeming, don't say that I didn't remind you."

Zhou Xianyu really didn't break it next time, and immediately couldn't help shouting loudly:
"Dead woman, stupid woman, stupid woman, how long do you want to torture me? I'm afraid to scare you away when I look for you, and I'm really upset when I don't see you. Why do you hide all the suffering in your heart? Why do you say these words? Don't tell me, Xiao Jinxuan, what should I do with you if you call me Lord."

Almost as soon as his words fell, Shen Wenqing, who was Princess Rui, would actually come over with a tea and a smile, before she even got close, she said with a light smile:
"I have long heard that on the night of the Lantern Festival, the seventh brother made an oath of love to a woman named Xuan'er in public by Yingyue Lake. It was originally just a rumor, but I didn't expect that this woman was Miss Jinxuan. Looking at the seventh brother like this Suffering from love, sister-in-law has a way to relieve your lovesickness, so don't be impulsive, let me arrange everything."
