Chapter 70
However, rationality reminded her that all this was driven by power, not pure emotion. Didn't King Ji treat the previous Zhu Zixin very well?and after?So, don't believe it, don't believe it!
However, there was still some choking in her throat, and uncontrollable sadness swept her whole body. The regret of having no parents since she was a child, she couldn't let go of it until now, even if it spanned thousands of years, even if she experienced life and death.
"Zixin, don't be sad. In the future, I will take care of you like your mother. I won't let you be wronged again. Trust me, I like you, I just like you, not because of the general The reason. Zixin, please trust me, okay?"
Nangongxi continued talking, the warm tears on his back seemed to burn his heart, making him comfort Zhu Zixin constantly.
However, gradually, Zhu Zixin's sobbing gradually stopped, and her breathing gradually became even. Perhaps, it was because she was finally released for a moment on his warm back, and finally fell asleep comfortably.
Nangong Xi stopped talking, and walked more steadily and slower, walking slowly like this...
When we arrived at the Hou Mansion, it was almost Haishi.
Outside the door, a figure suddenly came out from the darkness. Seeing that it was Nan Gongxi, the figure paused for a moment, and then hurriedly said: "See Your Highness the Crown Prince."
It turned out to be Zhu Ziyi. When he saw his sister was on the crown prince's back, Zhu Ziyi was also taken aback, and asked, "Your Highness, what's going on? Why did my sister come back with you?"
"It's hard to say, let's send her back first."
Nangong Xi said, after finishing speaking, he went straight to the Hou's residence.
"Your Highness, let me come."
Seeing that Zhu Zixin was sleeping on Nangongxi's back, Zhu Ziyi hurriedly said in order not to tire the prince.
"It's okay, I'll come."
Nan Gongxi refused to give Zhu Zixin to him, and stubbornly carried her to the back room.It wasn't until Zhu Zixin was sent to Dongli Garden and placed on Zhu Zixin's own bed that Nan Gongxi turned around and asked Zhu Ziyi, "Where is Lord Hou?"
"Reporting to His Royal Highness, my father is waiting for His Royal Highness in the main hall."
It turned out that Zhu Ziyi had already sent someone to invite Zhu Jing.
"Okay, my king will go now."
After Nangongxi finished speaking, she straightened her clothes, Zhu Ziyi led the way, and Nangongxi followed him, heading for the main hall.
In the main hall, Xiao Cui was kneeling on the ground, while Zhu Jing asked with a frosty face, "Tell me, what's going on? Didn't you go to uncle's house with Miss? Why did Miss come back when you came back?" Didn't come back, but at this time, the young lady came back with the prince?"
"Master, please calm down. Miss met a group of people on the road, so..."
"I was almost hijacked by those people. Fortunately, I met the king and drove the group away. The lady was frightened, so the king sent her back. As for Xiaocui, it was the king who asked her to come back first of."
Before Xiao Cui finished speaking, Nangong Xi interrupted her and walked in.
Seeing Nangongxi, Zhu Jing hurriedly got up, walked a few steps, bent down and saluted, "Greetings to the prince."
"Master Hou is free."
Prince Xi stretched out his hand to help Zhu Jing up, and said.
"Go down."
Zhu Jing stood up, then raised his hand, ordering Xiao Cui to back down.In fact, the reason why he chose this time to ask Xiaocui was for Nangongxi to listen.Because, he suspected that Zhu Zixin took the opportunity to go to his uncle's house today to meet the prince privately.The queen suddenly said kiss, which made Zhu Jing think a lot.He was afraid that he and the entire Zhu family would be involved because of this incident.The purpose of asking Xiaocui was to give Nangongxi a disarm so that he could restrain himself. After all, Zhu Zixin had not yet divorced the Prince of Ji. The whole Zhu family will be in trouble.
At this time, Xiao Cui was overjoyed when she heard that the young lady had returned, and hurried to Dongli Garden
Today she was worried to death. She waited in the carriage for a long time, but she didn't come back, so she got out of the car to look for her, but she didn't see her after searching for a long time. He didn't dare to go back, so he waited at the same place. Later, he wondered if the lady had come back first, so he and the coachman drove the carriage back again. Miss, Xiao Cui was so startled that she didn't know what to do, and burst into tears anxiously.It just so happened that Zhu Jing sent someone to pass her on. She was terrified at first, and she didn't know how to face the master, so she cried all the way to the main hall, and before she could say a few words, the prince came.
Knowing that Miss was safe and sound, Xiaocui was naturally very happy, so she hurried to go.
On this side, Zhu Jing sat with Nan Gongxi, and Nan Gongxi said just now: "Master Hou, the eldest lady was frightened and fell asleep now, I hope Master Hou will not disturb her, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it tomorrow. It's been a night today, and if this king is not well, I will stay and take my leave first."
"Thank you, His Royal Highness, for saving the little girl. I am grateful to you."
Hearing the words, Zhu Jing slowly got up, and arched his hands perfunctorily.
His words were polite, but lacked the humility that he should have in normal times.
But Nangong Xi didn't care, she waved her hand and said, "It's nothing to worry about, as long as Lord Hou doesn't think this king is meddling in other things. Just leave it alone."
After finishing speaking, he turned around and wanted to go out the door.
Zhu Jing sent him out the door, seeing Nan Gongxi's back disappearing into the night, his expression changed just now, and he went towards Dongli Garden with a livid face.
Zhu Ziyi said behind him: "Father, have you forgotten what His Royal Highness said? My sister was frightened, so can't you wait until tomorrow?"
Zhu Jing stopped in his tracks, then turned his head, and said with anger on his face, "Can't you see that this is all planned by the prince? He just wants your sister to marry him."
"What's wrong with that? The prince is many times better than that King Ji."
Zhu Ziyi said disapprovingly.
"King Ji? He was referred by the emperor. Our Marquis Mansion is just a feudal lord with a foreign surname. If the emperor treats you as a person, you are really a person? Marriage matters, and there is reason to bargain with the emperor? I am afraid that what the queen said that day is also the same. Can't be counted!"
Zhu Jing said angrily.
After finishing speaking, he continued: "In a girl's family, reputation is the most important thing. As a father, I want to tell him not to get too close to any man. If the reputation is ruined, I'm afraid no one will want her again." Already!"
"Is Daddy afraid that without this prostitute, he will lose the bargaining chip to marry the royal family? Or is it Daddy, who just uses his sister as a tool to climb up?"
Zhu Ziyi said unceremoniously.
"You... what did you say?"
After hearing Zhu Ziyi's words, Zhu Jing's face turned livid, and he pointed to Zhu Ziyi and asked.
"Is what the boy said wrong? The crown prince has already said that my sister was frightened, but you still want to question her regardless. Don't tell the boy that you are concerned about Zixin."
Zhu Ziyi raised his chin and said without fear.
"Okay, good, now that your wings are hardened, you can talk back to me, can't you?"
Zhu Jing said two good words in a row and asked.
"The boy doesn't intend to talk back to Daddy, he just discusses the matter. Since Daddy cares about Zixin, don't bother her at this time."
Zhu Ziyi softened his tone, but he didn't give in at all when he said it.
"Hmph! Frightened? Good! Since you have no reason to let me see her, I won't."
Zhu Jing actually turned around and walked away. After walking a few steps, he said to the young man behind him, "Pass on my words. The eldest lady is frightened and feels unwell. She is not suitable for walking outside. Let her rest in Dongli Garden for a month. Not allowed to go anywhere!"
After speaking, he strode away.
"Father, why are you doing this?"
Behind him, Zhu Ziyi shouted angrily.But Zhu Jing ignored him and left alone.
Zhu Zixin was grounded, and the happiest thing was to stay with the second aunt, mother and daughter.
At this time, although it was late at night, the news quickly reached Second Auntie's ears.
The second aunt was punished by Zhu Jing for the matter of the prime minister's wife, and she was beaten twenty times. Now she can only recover on the bed. Zhu Zichan was imprisoned in Chenxiang Pavilion for several days, and she was dying. Her mother was guarding by her bed, while Zhu Ziqi was still sitting quietly in her own room, her face was frosty, and her eyes were full of fireworks of hatred.Ever since her body got better, she has often been like this, sitting quietly by herself with a look of hatred on her face. Usually at this time, she would ignore anyone and just immerse herself in her reverie, sometimes She narrowed her eyes dangerously, sometimes gritted her teeth in hatred, and sometimes threw things on the table on the ground... Even when she was not in a daze, she spoke less and rarely took the initiative to talk to others. Very impatient.
At this moment, even though she knew that her mother had been spanked, she didn't seem to respond at all.
However, suddenly, a voice came from outside the door: "Second Aunt, good news, good news, the master actually grounded the young lady just now!"
"Really? Do you know why?"
Second Auntie's voice was very excited, and even the volume was raised a few degrees.After finishing speaking, he couldn't help but gasped again: "Oh, it hurts me to death!"
"I heard that the eldest lady came back late, and she was sent back by the prince. When the master saw it, he disturbed Lei Ting and grounded the eldest lady!"
The person who came said again.
"Okay, okay! What an evildoer, it's not worth seducing King Ji, but now he's going to seduce the prince again! Hmph! This is what he deserves!"
The second aunt said again.
At this time, Zhu Ziqi, who had been sitting quietly in the room, suddenly got up, coming from the second aunt's room.
The door was pushed open with a creak, and the second aunt and Zhu Zichan looked at the door at the same time, only to see Zhu Ziqi standing firmly at the door with a distorted face.
The second aunt's eyes twitched, but she hurriedly revealed a loving expression, and said: "Qi'er, come quickly, come quickly, come to mother."
"She doesn't want to be king? Mother."
