Return of Jin Yi

Chapter 59

As soon as Princess Nanjun heard Chu Ci's tone, she knew that she was really angry.Panicked, she hurriedly moved a few steps closer to the door, pressed her hands against the carvings on the door, and said urgently, "Aci, what happened today is indeed the fault of the county prince's mansion...it's because I was not strict with my orders and didn't discipline me Good people in the mansion, I apologize to you... I promise to give you an explanation, do you like it?"

Chu Ci said nothing. After the door opened, she looked at Princess Nanjun who hurried in, and said in a cold voice, "Princess Princess Naturally wants to give me an explanation for such a big thing. This is the most basic yes, isn't it?"

Princess Nanjun was shocked by the coldness of Chu Ci's body. She pulled her lips stiffly, and her face became more and more apologetic, "Yes, what you said is that all this is the fault of the Prince's House. If you have any request , just mention it, the county palace will definitely compensate you well."

Chu Ci put his hands tightly on his lower abdomen, turned around and sat down on the brocade stool that Yunniang had just moved, raised his eyelids, and said, "Fairness, compensation, etc., we will discuss it later. Princess, I just want to know , Langyue Residence has such a big change, and it is so close to Luyou Courtyard, so no one told the old lady?"

"This..." Nanjun Wangfei pursed her thin lips tightly. After a while, she said apologetically, "Aci, I hurriedly brought someone over when I got the news. I haven't had time to ask about Lu Youyuan."

"Since this is the case, the princess of the county should find out what is going on in Luyouyuan first, and then come and talk to me about other things. ... I have other things to deal with here, so I won't send you off!"

As she said that, she got up and walked towards Qingmiao who was still lying on the ground, and motioned for Yunniang to help her to the brocade couch.

Seeing that Chu Ci no longer paid attention to her, Princess Nanjun felt a little uncomfortable.But thinking of the identity of the father of the child in her womb, he didn't dare to show face to her, so he could only hold back his anger and retreated outside again.

Before she left, she left a group of people guarding Langyue Residence to prevent any other accidents, and only took the closest people to Luyou Courtyard.

When she walked outside the Luyou courtyard, she found that the lights in the courtyard had been turned on.

Walking in hastily, as soon as he entered the bedroom, he saw Lu Zhaohua personally helping the old lady change her clothes.

The old lady seemed to have just learned about the change in Langyueju, and her face was full of anxiety. When she saw Nanjun Wangfei coming in, she immediately opened her mouth and said, "Junwangfei, you came from Langyueju?"

The princess of the county nodded, "Exactly."

The old lady asked again, "Where is Ah Ci... She is not injured, is she? There is also the child in her womb, is there something wrong?"

The princess of the county shook her head, and said in a heavy tone, "That child, Aci, is fine. When I went, I only saw some people fell down in the outer courtyard, and the green shoots in the inner courtyard were covered with blood... I guess it was to protect Ah Ci was injured."

When the old lady heard that she saw blood, her complexion immediately turned pale.

Her bloodless lips trembled slightly, and it took her a while to growl angrily, "Where is the second daughter-in-law! Let her kneel in the ancestral hall to reflect! Without my permission, no one is allowed to see her!" "

After saying that, without giving anyone a chance to intercede, he said with a livid face, "Call me over again, Mrs. Chen from the outer courtyard, and I'll ask her how the night duty is worth! If such a big thing happened, I wouldn't If you know, come in and report back!"

Hearing this, Bi Xin tilted her head and was about to walk out.

At this time, Lu Zhaohua, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly fell to his knees with a plop.

Bixin's walking steps stopped suddenly, and she looked at Lu Zhaohua in shock.

The old lady was also stunned by this scene, she frowned, looked at Lu Zhaohua, frowned slightly, "Zhaohua, what are you doing?"

When Lu Zhaohua heard the old lady's question, the expression on his face immediately became more disturbed, and she clenched her hands tightly in her sleeves... After a long while, she said in embarrassment, "Grandmother, Mrs. Chen came to report the incident when the incident happened! "

"Reported?" The old lady looked at Lu Zhaohua with a shocked expression.

Slowly, looking at Lu Zhaohua's drooping eyebrows, she seemed to understand something.His lips and teeth trembled, and he asked calmly, "It was you who stopped Mrs. Chen?"

When Lu Zhaohua heard the old lady's question, he suddenly raised his head, and argued, "The granddaughter is also afraid of disturbing grandma's rest!...The granddaughter knows that your sleep has not been very sound, so...that's why when Mrs. Chen came to report, she was bold. stopped her."

"Then?"

"Grandmother..." Lu Zhaohua opened his eyes wide and looked at the old lady with tears in his eyes, as if he didn't understand what she meant.
The old lady frowned even tighter, and asked in a cold voice, "After stopping Mrs. Chen, what did you do?"

"..."

Lu Zhaohua was silent, and slowly lowered his head again.

Seeing her like this, the old lady showed deep disappointment on her old face.

The princess of Nanjun stood aside and witnessed the conversation between her daughter and her mother-in-law. If she didn't understand what was going on, then her more than 40 years of life would be in vain.

Sighing softly, with a look of unnaturalness on her face, she moved closer to the old lady, looked at Lu Zhaohua who was kneeling there, then looked at the old lady, and then called out with complicated eyes, "Mother -"

Listening to Nanjun Wangfei's repeated address, the old lady couldn't understand what she meant.

But the palms and backs of the hands are full of meat!
Lu Zhaohua is her granddaughter, and Chu Ci is also her daughter-in-law!
She sighed silently, looked down at Lu Zhaohua, and after a while, she suddenly asked, "Do you know how your grandmother married your grandfather back then?"

Hearing the old lady's question, Lu Zhaohua suddenly raised his head and looked at her.After looking at each other for a moment, they shook their heads and said, "Granddaughter doesn't know."

The old lady smiled wryly, looked at her, and was silent for a while before she said, "Actually, your current grandfather is not your real grandfather."

Lu Zhaohua didn't expect that the old lady's topic would be so hot, and his eyes widened all of a sudden.

The old lady ignored her surprise, just looked into her eyes, and continued, "The first time I saw your grandfather was when your own grandfather died for the country. It was your grandfather who brought your own grandfather's body back to me... ..."

"Your grandfather and I were both orphans who fled to Suzhou. After his death, I was a weak woman and pregnant with a posthumous child. Life was not only difficult... even the daily necessities were often difficult."

"Your grandfather is your own grandfather's best brother... He couldn't bear me to live a difficult life alone, let alone being harassed by the gangsters in the neighborhood and gossips from the neighbors, and finally decided to take me back to the Lu family."

"After that, he treated me from the beginning to the end, and even passed the title to the posthumous child in my womb, that is, your father."

"Zhaohua, grandma knows that you only have Feng'er as a younger brother, and she can't wait to give her all the best. You think Ah Ci, who is already married and pregnant, is not worthy of Feng'er... But compare your heart, do you have any? I thought about it, if everyone had the same narrow thinking as you, would there still be a grandmother, would there be a father, would there be you in this world?"

Lu Zhaohua didn't expect that his father was not his grandfather's son. For a moment, he froze and couldn't react for a long time.

In the end, it was the princess of Nanjun who, with tears in her eyes, came forward to express her opinion on behalf of her daughter, "Mother, today's matter has developed to the point where it is out of control, and it is indeed inseparable from Zhaohua... My daughter-in-law accepts punishment for Zhaohua... Regardless of mother Neither my daughter-in-law nor Zhaohua complained about how to punish her."

The old lady didn't respond to Nanjun Wangfei's words, but continued to look at Lu Zhaohua.

She was waiting, waiting for this granddaughter to express her opinion.

If she accepts the punishment, then it is not too stupid.

But if she doesn't admit it, then her future marriage will have to be reconsidered.If such a granddaughter who has no tolerance for others is married, it will bring disaster to the family.

Fortunately, Lu Zhaohua did not disappoint the old lady.

Her eyelids trembled slightly, she looked at the old lady, and said word by word, "Grandmother, Zhaohua knew it was wrong! Zhaohua...is willing to plead guilty to Miss Chu, no matter how Miss Chu says goodbye to Zhaohua, Zhaohua Huadu has no complaints."

After hearing what Lu Zhaohua said, the old lady finally breathed a sigh of relief, nodded slightly to her, and said, "Go, go and confess your mistake to Ah Ci. As for whether she will forgive you, it depends on your luck!"

Lu Zhaohua nodded with tears in his eyes.

He bowed three times to the old lady, then got up, turned his head and walked outside.

When she walked to Langyue Residence with a complicated expression, it was already two quarters of an hour later.

In the dormitory, Chu Ci had just treated the injured servant's wound.

Hearing the servant's report left by Nanjun Wangfei——Lu Zhaohua begged to see him, and immediately frowned.I coldly guessed in my heart, could it be that she had a hand in what happened today?
Thinking like this, she calmly nodded to the servant who reported, "Let the eldest lady come in!"

"Yes, girl!" The servant took the order and retreated respectfully.

Holding a bowl of calming soup in his hand, Chu Ci leaned on the big pillow on Arhat's bed, waiting silently.

After about a cup of tea, Lu Zhaohua walked in from the outside.

She cried all the way, and her eyes became redder.

After arriving in front of Chu Ci, without saying a word, he took his maid and knelt down on the ground, folded her hands, raised her head above her head, and said in a hoarse voice, "Zhaohua came to plead guilty to Miss Chu! I beg Miss Chu to have a lot of forgiveness." Me this time."

"Apology?" Chu Ci looked at her, with a cold arc on the corner of his mouth, "Dare to ask Miss, what kind of crime are you asking for?"

Lu Zhaohua pursed his lips and lowered his head. After a while, he seemed to have made up his mind and told him about the ridiculous things he did tonight.

After listening to Chu Ci, his expression relaxed.The mystery that has been puzzling all night has finally been solved!

——It turns out that the old lady didn't want to help her, but was deceived by others!
As for the person who lied to her, it was Lu Zhaohua, the eldest daughter of the county prince's mansion whom she brought up.

However, there was one thing she really didn't expect.

That is, Nanjun Wangfei would be willing to let her favorite jewel come to make an apology for her.

Could it be that she has taken a fancy to her, the new daughter-in-law who is about to get married, and dare not bully my sister-in-law?

Thinking of this, the arc of Chu Ci's mouth became even colder.

Xindao: Regardless of whether she has figured out what she thinks about Princess Nanjun, she will never let go of those who try to harm her.

Thinking like this, she finally raised her eyes to look at Lu Zhaohua, stared into her eyes and asked, "Since Miss knows that she is wrong, what price is she willing to pay?"

Hearing Chu Ci's question, Lu Zhaohua lowered his head slightly and said in a low voice, "No matter how Miss Chu punishes me, I will admit it!"

"is it?"

"Yes!"

"Well, I want you to kneel at the door of Langyue Residence for three days and three nights!"

After she finished speaking, Lu Zhaohua suddenly raised his head, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Chu Ci looked at her like this, and a sneer flashed in his eyes, "Why, you don't want to recognize her anymore?"

Lu Zhaohua straightened his back, gritted his teeth, and replied blankly, "Yes! I admit it!" After speaking, he walked out...

After a while, Yunniang came in, and said to Chu Ci with a complicated expression, "Girl, Missy is really kneeling there."

"Shouldn't it be?" Chu Ci could clearly see the look in Yunniang's eyes, and asked indifferently.

When Yunniang heard this, she sighed a little, "She is a girl who has never left the court. If this matter gets out, it will probably ruin her life."

"Hey—" Hearing what she said, Chu Ci couldn't help but sneered.

Yunniang didn't understand what Chu Ci meant.

Chu Ci turned the suet jade bracelet on his wrist, looked up into her eyes and asked word by word, "Then have you ever thought about what would have happened to you if I hadn't used the silver needle to save you? ... If the princess of the county doesn't arrive in time, what will happen to me?"

Yunniang was speechless.

Chu Ci looked at her tangled expression, sighed, and simply pointed out to her, "In this world, not everything is to take a step back, but to endure a moment of exacerbation...even death without burial. place."

"Yunniang, if you don't want to die, and you don't want to watch me die, then don't go down to the Holy Mother. Everyone has to pay the price for what they do... Since she, Lu Zhaohua, dares to plot against me, she should think of failure." There will be today. As for what kind of life she will live in the future, that is not your concern. What you should worry about now is where we will live after we leave the Nanjun Palace..."

"Miss is leaving the Nanjun Prince's Mansion?" Yun Niang was shocked.

Chu Ci nodded, raised his eyebrows and said, "After today, I'm afraid that many people in the mansion will become enemies with me... As the saying goes, there is only a thousand days to be a thief, and there is no way to prevent a thousand days from being a thief. I thought it would be easier , It is imperative to move out."

"But... in half a month, you will marry the Prince Xiaojun!"

"Then before we get married, let the big tree of Nanjun Wangfu divide its branches!"

Yun Niang: "..."

Why does her girl talk about dividing up the family as easily as dividing a bowl of rice.

Chu Ci glanced at her again, "Think about what I told you just now."

Yunniang hurriedly turned her face down, and Fushen responded, "I understand, I will think about it when I go back."

Chu Ci didn't say any more.After tossing and tossing for half the night, she was still sleepy, she stood up, and was about to rest in the Nuan Pavilion.

At this time, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door, and the next moment, the crystal curtain slammed, and King Lu Xiaojun rushed in from outside.

After arriving in front of Chu Ci, he held her shoulders with both hands, looked her up and down several times, and finally heaved a sigh of relief, "Chu Xiaoci, fortunately you are fine, otherwise..."

"Otherwise what?" Chu Ci looked at him with a half-smile and asked,

King Lu Xiaojun snorted coldly, "Otherwise, I will kill the Suzhou Wang family!"

The Wang family of Suzhou is the second wife's natal family.

Hearing what he said, Chu Ci smiled softly, "I see you are amazing!"

After a pause, he yawned again, and said, "...Okay, it's so late, I'm sleepy too, you're still injured, go back and rest!"

King Lu Xiaojun snorted, with a dissatisfied expression on his face, "Chu Xiaoci, you are heartless, you drove me away so soon!"

Chu Ci gave him an angry look, "Otherwise, do you want me, a pregnant woman, to accompany you all night without sleep?"

"...That's right!" King Lu Xiaojun looked down at her swollen belly, paused, then poked her again, and asked in a low voice, "How many months are there?"

Chu Ci counted the days, "Less than four months..."

King Lu Xiaojun was overjoyed, "Young master is going to be a father so soon?"

Chu Ci smiled awkwardly, "Yes, yes, you are going to be a father soon...but now your son is going to rest, so can you go back first?"

King Lu Xiaojun's eyes rolled, he continued to touch Chu Ci's belly reluctantly, and hummed, "Young master won't leave, I want to develop a relationship with my son!"

Saying that, regardless of whether Chu Citong agreed or not, he directly bent down, picked her up horizontally, and walked towards the Nuan Pavilion beside him.

It was only after Chu Ci volleyed in the air that he finally came to his senses—Jun Lu Xiaojun has become more and more courageous recently!

As soon as her face darkened, she grabbed his ear and twisted it, "Lu Yifeng, let me go!"

"Don't let go!" King Lu Xiaojun endured the pain and let her twist, until he put her firmly on the kang of the warm pavilion, and then let her go, "You will soon be my concubine, and I want to hug you You, just hug you!"

"..." Chu Ci glared at him, "Aren't you afraid of being stabbed now?"

Hearing the needling, King Lu Xiaojun flinched subconsciously, then took two steps back cautiously, and said softly, "I'm afraid..."

"Then get out!" Chu Ci grabbed a big pillow on the kang and threw it at King Lu Xiaojun.

King Lu Xiaojun looked at an autumn-colored pillow, and subconsciously wanted to hide, but when he turned sideways, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he seemed to remember something... He didn't hide anymore, he just avoided it intentionally.

Then, a pillow more than two feet long hit his chest heavily.

"Uh..." He frowned, covered his chest lightly and let out a muffled groan, then bit the tip of his tongue hard, and the next moment, a few drops of blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth...

Chu Ci didn't know what he was thinking. Looking at this scene, he felt panicked.

She got off the kang in a hurry, walked towards him in three steps at a time, and when she reached his side, she grabbed his arm and asked anxiously, "Lu Yifeng, are you okay, but I hit you too hard, which attracted you The internal injury attack..."

Seeing that Chu Ci was so nervous about him, King Lu Xiaojun was overjoyed, and immediately performed even harder. He leaned half of his body on her shoulder, lowered his voice, hoarse his voice, and tried to pretend to be angry, and said, "Chu Xiaojun Resignation, I... am I going to die... I feel that my internal organs are so painful, like burning, it really hurts..."

As he spoke, the facial features on his face wrinkled tightly together.

Hearing what he said, Chu Ci didn't suspect him, so he quickly helped him onto the kang, and pinched his wrist to help him get his pulse.

But... it's strange.

His pulse showed no sign of internal injury!

Thinking of this, Chu Ci frowned tightly.

And it was the first time King Lu Xiaojun pretended to be a ghost in front of Chu Ci.

Seeing her frowning tightly, he thought he saw something, and hurriedly defended, "Chu Xiaoci, I didn't lie to you, I really feel like I'm going to die..."

Dun Dun, looking at her very alluring lips under the light again, swallowed, and said, "Before I die, I still have a small wish, can you grant me..."

"What wish?" Chu Ci twitched his eyes, looking at him and asked slowly.

King Lu Xiaojun was not shy at all, staring at her ruddy lips, he immediately said shamelessly, "You...can you take the initiative to kiss me once... just once..."

Chu Ci raised his eyebrows when he heard the words.

By this time, if she can no longer see that his illness is fake, then she really has something in her head.

"Kiss you?" She looked into his eyes and asked back.

King Lu Xiaojun focused all his attention on the beauty in front of him, and immediately nodded impatiently, "Yes, kiss me..."

"Then close your eyes!"

Chu Ci's voice could be described as gentle as water, but the fists hidden in his sleeves were clenched tightly.

"Okay, I'll close it!" Prince Lu Xiaojun pouted his red lips and closed his eyes impatiently.

As for Chu Ci, he clenched his fist fiercely, raised it without any warning, and blasted directly at his closed eyes.

"Ah—" There was only a scream that belonged to King Lu Xiaojun.

The next moment, he opened a black eye with difficulty, looked at Chu Ci, and said aggrievedly, "You...Chu Xiaoci, you actually deceived the young master!"

Chu Ci rubbed his painful fist and sneered, "Did I lie to you? Do you want me to recall for you again, who lied to whom first?"

As she spoke, she flicked her wrist lightly, and several silver needles shining with faint blue light appeared on her fingertips.

King Lu Xiaojun had been with her for so long, how could he not know the effects of the various silver needles on her body, he immediately softened his legs, and said with an embarrassing expression, "A Ci...A Ci, don't..."

Chu Ci sneered, "Where did you have the courage to lie to me just now?"

King Lu Xiaojun had a panda eye on his face, and pitifully flattened his mouth, "I've run out of guts... so, can you stop stabbing me!"

"What do you think?" Chu Ci raised his lips coldly.

The next moment, before King Lu Xiaojun could speak, Chu Ci's silver needle reached his chest.

"what--"

Another scream.

King Lu Xiaojun's entire face was distorted, and now... his internal organs really hurt.

It's like there are countless sharp knives stirring in it non-stop.

The pain made him look up and drip with cold sweat.

"A Ci...A Ci..." As if grabbing the last straw, he grabbed at Chu Ci's sleeve with all his might... Veins burst out on both sides of his temple.

Seeing his appearance, Chu Ci couldn't bear it, "Then next time, do you dare to disrespect me again?"
