After rebirth, I was entangled by enemy protons

Chapter 98 Restraint
Those who are older know that Fan Qiongran, the virtuous concubine in the harem of the emperor, was the number one beauty in Beijing in the past, and 20 years ago, there were as many people flocking to her as crucian carp crossing the river.

Everyone knows that Fan Qiongran is proficient in painting, calligraphy, and chess, and is a model for all noble women in Beijing. Only Gu Sangsang, the direct daughter of the Gu family, can surpass her in appearance.

However, as a woman, Gu Sangsang and her younger brother Gu Chengji traveled all day long, showing their faces and dealing with the business of the Gu family. They were not liked by the officials and nobles in Beijing. Therefore, the title of the first beauty fell to Fan Qiongran.

The first beauty came from charity, a thorn in Fan Qiongran's heart.

Since ancient times, beautiful women have been matched with heroes, and all the princes of Emperor Cheng have had concubines. Everyone in the world felt that Fan Qiongran would eventually marry Su Jingqing, a young general who was famous at the time—and then Su Jingqing married and had children. .

That year, Fan Qiongran did not match a hero, but was conferred by Emperor Cheng to Chu Tingxiao, the king of Chu who had already married Gu Sangsang - as the side princess.

Fan Qiongran and Gu Sangsang, one is as gentle as water, abiding by the rules, the other is arrogant and apostate.

Two women who have always been diametrically opposed, but have always been compared, and some people call them Shangjing Shuangshu.

And when Fan Qiongran was given marriage to Chu Tingxiao as a side concubine, it meant that Fan Qiongran would always be crushed by Gu Sangsang.

Chu Zhao knew from a young age what kind of person his mother-in-law was.

She hated that her title as the first beauty came from the charity of others, she hated herself being Chu Tingxiao's side concubine, and even more hated herself being named "Xianfei". The ambition and desire in her heart could devour everything. The words are exactly the opposite.

Fan Qiongran dreamed of winning over Queen Gu Sangsang, but it was almost impossible for Chu Tingxiao to make her the queen after she was abolished. That man was a different emperor. He loved Jiangshan, and he actually loved it too queen.Fan Qiongran could only overthrow the Gu family, hoping that Chu Zhao would ascend to the throne and become the queen dowager who listened to the government behind the curtain.

Anyone who stops her from achieving this goal is her enemy - including Chu Zhao.

Therefore, since he can remember, he has been secretly getting rid of Fan Qiongran's perverted desire for control and cultivated his own power.

Whether it was Tanfeng, Forsythia, or even Yiqiu, who was silenced by him, he took it from his mother-in-law bit by bit.

He wanted to protect that person, whether she knew it or not, whether he would be misunderstood by her.

As long as he can protect her comprehensively, he is willing to pay any price.

And the farther he is away from her, the more he shows that he doesn't care about her, Fan Qiongran and Fan Qian, they won't notice her existence.

"If the mother-in-law sent you to this palace, this palace would save some effort." Chu Zhao said lightly, looking at the Forsythia in front of him.

Forsythia was originally the one he placed beside his mother-in-law, but unfortunately, the mother-in-law valued Narcissus and Rose even more.

Forsythia's apricot eyes were clear and bright, she stared at Chu Zhaoxu for a moment, regained her senses, and said helplessly: "It's the appearance of a slave and a willow, which can't enter the eyes of the goddess. The narcissus is so beautiful, in the goddess's heart, it can match her highness."

Chu Zhao and her looked at each other for a moment, then restrained their heads and said softly, "Your eyes are very beautiful."

His voice was low, with forbearance and a hint of subtle tenderness.

But Forsythia knew that the tenderness was not for her.

But she was already satisfied, she smiled, her apricot eyes curved into crescents: "Thank your Highness for the praise."

Immediately, Chu Zhao and Tan Feng returned to the dark hall office together.

Tan Feng said: "His Royal Highness has not had breakfast yet, so my subordinates ordered it."

Chu Zhao stopped him and shook his head: "No need, this hall is not hungry, has the landscape map of Chen Daozi that I got last time been framed?"

"It has been installed and placed in the library."

"Find it out, choose the best sandalwood box and put it in, the box is lighter in sandalwood."

Tan Feng was stunned for a moment, and quickly reacted: "Yes, my subordinates will do it right away."

He didn't ask who His Highness was giving the landscape map to, because His Highness was so delicate, it could only be given to one person—Chu Yi.

Chu Zhao absent-mindedly reviewed a few official documents, until three poles in the sun, he pressed the sour eyebrows, and then put down the wolf in his hand.

"It's time for her to wake up." Chu Zhao whispered.

He returned to the Hundred Flowers Hall. Fan Yunsheng had been waiting for a while, and was sitting in the side hall, watching the Narcissus order tea with great interest, and behind him stood two little palace maids pinching his shoulders.

"His Royal Highness is down!"

The hand of Narcissus ordering tea trembled violently, and the tea water made waves.

Fan Yunsheng smiled and reassured: "What are you anxious about? Your Highness is here to find me."

Chu Zhao looked at the two of them, and his long and narrow eyes flashed with deep meaning.

He handed over the wooden box of landscape drawings prepared by Tan Feng to Fan Yunsheng, and said, "This is the real work of Chen Daozi. Since you are here to seek Chu Yi, you can't do it empty-handed."

Fan Yunsheng only felt that the authentic work in his arms was extremely hot, and he couldn't hide his excitement: "It's still your Highness that you are thoughtful, this is really Chen Daozi's authentic work? It's hard to find money, Chu Yi must like it, Yun Sheng is here to thank Your Highness!"

He used to please Chu Yi, and he used some rouge gouache gadgets that ordinary women like, and he would never pay such a big price unless Chu Zhao came out.

"Let's go." Chu Zhao endured the hatred and disgust in his heart, and his voice was cold.

Chu Yi watched a big play early in the morning, then went back to Weiyang Palace to fall asleep, and didn't wake up until almost noon.

Fortunately, pillow snow and the others are used to the fact that the princess is lethargic, and they are still waiting for her with warm meals.

However, when Chu Yi finished grooming and the table full of food was served, a notification came from outside, and Fan Yunsheng asked to see him.

"not see."

Chu Yi picked up the chopsticks and took a bite of the fried pork with a cold voice.

Fan Yunsheng came to see her at this time, except to plead for Fan Muyuan, Chu did not expect any other possibilities.

This happened in a previous life, but at that time, she just beat Fan Muyuan because of her sister Feng Mian, and she also sent Fan Muyuan to prison, but she did not tear her face with Fan Yunsheng, and listened to him for an hour in vain.

Zhenxue went out to communicate, and came back after a while: "His Royal Highness, the Fourth Prince is also here."

Chu Yi put down the chopsticks in his hand and frowned slightly.

She thought of Chu Zhao's killing of Yiqiu before, but she hadn't figured out what Chu Zhao meant.

"Let's hang it for a while," Chu Yi's red lips raised a cold smile, "You go and call Xiao Nian and ask him to bring a team of Yulin Army. If someone goes crazy later, they will be caught."

Zhan Xue responded, thought for a while and then said: "By the way, Your Highness, the name of the entourage following the Fourth Prince today is Tan Feng, Your Highness can still remember that in the side hall of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Xu Xiang forced his way into the inner hall to rescue you. The person? There is also the yellow talisman attached to the slave by Xu Xiang, and the person who happened to meet in Xiaonian is him."

Chu Yi had a vague impression in his heart, and gritted his teeth: "He brought Tanfeng here today to tell Ben Gong that he helped Ben Gong? Is this asking for peace?"

She was going to sell Chu Zhao's face when she heard Fan Yunsheng's roar from outside:
"Yi'er, are you really so ruthless, you can't even see me!"
