Chapter 87 Princess Ruoling
"Brother Prince, Ruo Ling is here to see you." The door of the bedroom was suddenly pushed open, a beautiful woman in light red luxurious palace attire, followed by two maids, hurried around the screen to the bed .

Seeing Xia Ningxi, the woman quickly moved a distance away, stared at her with hostility, and stopped in her tracks.

Xia Ningxi turned back to look at the person with a careless expression, then she calmly withdrew her gaze, lowered her eyes slightly to help Yu Xuanzhen tuck the corner of the quilt, and asked, "Which palace are you from?"

The woman frowned, stared at Xia Ningxi closely, and asked coldly, "Are you the crown prince's brother who just married yesterday?"

"Yes." Xia Ningxi replied casually.

When the woman heard this, she immediately became angry, snorted coldly, and accused her arrogantly: "The princess has never seen a princess like you, and just married into the East Palace, and you have tossed the brother of the prince like this. I really don't know How did you become a princess!"

"The princess?"

Xia Ningxi looked back at her, and couldn't help laughing: "I thought you were a side concubine in this palace, or a concubine, but it turned out to be the princess. Then I want to ask, how did I become a concubine?" , what does it have to do with you?"

"It doesn't matter. The prince's brother has been in poor health since he was a child. You should know. But no matter how poor his health is, he has been in peace for more than 20 years. Once you came, the prince's brother became sick like this. You said I can Do you just sit back and watch?" The woman became more and more angry as she spoke, her beautiful oval face was stained with a faint blush.

Xia Ningxi raised her eyebrows, suppressed a smile and asked, "So? What do you want?"

"I……"

The woman's face turned red, she stomped her foot angrily, and pointed at Xia Ningxi's nose: "I want to tell His Majesty to divorce you, the princess!"

"If that's the case, I can't wait for it." Xia Ningxi shrugged, disapproving.

"You...you woman, why are you so thick-skinned!" The woman was almost choked and speechless,
"Ahem..." A slight cough came from the bed, and Yu Xuanzhen slightly opened his eyes, listening to the quarrel in his ears, his brows were slightly frowned.

Xia Ningxi's heart was shocked, and there was a hint of surprise in her eyes that she couldn't even detect. She hurriedly turned her head to look at Yu Xuanzhen who was awake, and smiled easily: "You are awake."

Yu Xuanzhen stretched out his hand in front of her, and said weakly: "Get up."

Xia Ningxi nodded in panic, carefully helped him up, looked at his handsome features, and felt a lot of comfort in her heart.

The girl standing on the side rushed forward, frowned slightly, and asked worriedly: "Brother Prince, how do you feel now? Is there any other discomfort?"

Yu Xuanzhen frowned lightly, turned to stare at the woman, and asked coldly: "Princess Ruoling, why are you arguing with the lonely princess?"

"Brother Prince, I'm not all because of you." Princess Ruoling pursed her lips with an aggrieved expression on her face.

Pretending to sob, she stared at Xia Ningxi with dissatisfaction, and snorted softly: "This woman just married into the East Palace, and the prince's elder brother became ill like this. She must have treated the prince's elder brother badly and made the prince's elder brother angry."

With a cold face, Yu Xuanzhen took a deep breath and said, "Okay! No matter what the reason is, no one can blame the lonely princess except Gu. Let alone you, it is the empress. Without Gu's permission, You can’t even say she’s not!”

"Brother Prince~" Princess Ruoling lowered her head aggrievedly, with tears in her eyes.

Xia Ningxi rubbed the tip of her nose, and stared at Yu Xuanzhen suspiciously, inevitably a little shocked.Why does this man protect her like this?Could it be that, as You Huang said, not only need her help?

Yu Xuanzhen withdrew his gaze, looked at her suspicious eyes, and smiled faintly: "I'm fine, go out for a walk with me!"

Xia Ningxi was wandering in the sky, nodded absent-mindedly, helped him up, the two of them didn't even look at Princess Ruoling, and walked around the screen.

Princess Ruoling frowned and bit her lip, turned around and looked at Yu Xuanzhen's back, a cloud of anger rushed into her heart.

After watching the two walk away, he stomped his feet again angrily and strode away from the East Palace.

Walking in the garden, Xia Ningxi's expression returned to her previous looseness, she let go of Yu Xuanzhen's hand, walked to the gazebo in the garden and sat down against the railing, with her legs crossed and trembling, she grabbed an almond from the stone table Put it into the mouth, and asked: "What is the origin of this Ruoling princess? Are you on a good relationship?"

Yu Xuanzhen sat down opposite her, and said calmly: "She is the daughter of Prince Hua of Wei Cheng, her name is Hua Ruoling. Because the emperor's grandmother liked her very much, she stayed in the palace for a few years when she was a child, and then she often pestered me. At the beginning of this year, she asked someone to deliver a letter, saying that she missed the emperor's grandmother very much, and the emperor's grandmother ordered someone to pick her up from Weidi and stay in the palace temporarily."

"It turns out that she is the daughter of Prince Hua. This identity is very worthy of your status as the prince of a country."

Xia Ningxi smiled slyly, leaned closer to him, and said, "If you like someone, I'll help you match them up. It doesn't matter if I'm a side concubine, since you and I are just in name anyway. I'll give up the princess position to this county concubine." Lord, what do you think?"

"I don't think so!" Yu Xuanzhen's face darkened, he stood up holding back his anger, and strode out of the corridor. His aura was not like that of a patient recovering from a serious injury.

Xia Ningxi was stunned for a moment, then quickly stood up and followed him, curling her lips and asked: "Then what do you think should be done? I think Princess Ruoling is crazy about you, such a good girl, you missed this village, but you didn't This store is gone."

Yu Xuanzhen paused, took a deep breath, a dangerous look appeared in his eyes, he turned his head and stared at her eyes, each word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth: "Xia Ningxi, what do you give to the orphan?" Listen well, there is only one concubine in the Eastern Palace, and that is you, the crown prince and concubine. Apart from you, there is no one else!"

"..." Xia Ning was in a mess in the wind, didn't he just agree to help him catch monsters?How did she become the only concubine?

Seeing her stunned on the spot, Yu Xuanzhen raised his lips slightly, stretched out his hand to hold her hand, and said, "Remember what Gu said, and in the future, don't think about giving up the princess position to others."

"Oh." Xia Ningxi replied with a wooden face.

Yu Xuanzhen nodded in satisfaction, took her hand and continued walking in the garden.

Xiahou Mansion.

The melodious sound of the zither was flowing from the waterside pavilion. Xia Muyao, who was dressed in a pale pink dress, sat in front of the qin platform with slightly condensed eyebrows, and her slender fingers gently brushed over the strings.

Lord Xia walked up to her along the corridor, took a deep breath, and asked with concern: "Yesterday you passed out in the corridor, are you better today?"

Xia Muyao retracted her fingers, and smiled gently: "It's much better, dad, you don't have to worry."

Master Xiahou nodded and sat down, with a gentle tone: "Ning Xi has already married into the East Palace, so you don't need to worry about your marriage with the crown prince anymore. It's just that you are not young anymore, it's better to decide this marriage earlier. Besides, do you have other ideas?"
