Reborn to marry ex-husband's nemesis

Chapter 218 Little Eyes Reveal Big Doubt
But the words have already been let out by her, if she denies it again, wouldn't it be a slap in the face?
What's more, with so many people watching, and seeing Chu Zhi's eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, Chu Xi felt humiliation, ridicule, and unwillingness for no reason, welling up in her heart and drowning her.

Under the chaos, she bit her lip hard, nodded her head and admitted: "Yes, I have indeed become the fourth prince's side concubine."

"What?" Chu Wan looked at Chu Xi in shock, speechless for a while.

Knowing that everyone in the house wanted to see her joke, Chu Xi was so angry that she didn't know where to vent it, so she suppressed her smile: "What? Fourth sister doesn't believe it?"

Chu Wan was left speechless by Chu Xi's resentment, she pulled the corners of her mouth for a while, and forced a smile, "I'm just so happy, congratulations...Sister Six."

The congratulations came out, and the old lady beamed. After all, she was the mistress of the house. Guessing that Meng Wan was present, it might be a joke. After all, Chu Xi's fourth prince and side concubine were not enough to look at in front of Meng Wan's crown princess.

"It's all about nothing, so don't spread rumors."

Even though the old lady said so, she couldn't hide her joy in her tone, and after talking to Meng Wan for a few more words, she let her and Chu Zhi go.

When Fang came out of Rongning Hall, Chu Wan stopped Chu Zhi: "Fifth Sister, I have something to tell you."

Chu Xuan and Chu Zhao glanced at her, seeing that Chu Wan was only staring at Chu Zhi, Chu Zhao asked, "What do you want to say?"

Chu Wan didn't speak, but stared at Chu Zhi.

Because Meng Wan was present, Chu Zhao didn't care about her anymore, so he took Chu Xuan away first.

Only Chu Zhi, Chu Nuan and Meng Wan were left.

"Finally," Chu Zhi said.

"This is a private matter." Chu Wan bit her lip, "Can I talk to Fifth Sister alone."

Chu Zhi guessed what she wanted to do, and refused mercilessly: "I'm afraid I can't, I have something else to do, if Fourth Sister doesn't want to talk about it, that's all."

After that, he turned and left.

Chu Wan hated it extremely, but she was afraid of offending Chu Zhi. After all, when this man threatened her earlier, she remembered it clearly, and couldn't help but lose her voice: "Chu Xi is now the fourth prince's side concubine. You offended her earlier. , aren't you afraid of her revenge?"

Chu Zhi was amused by her words, and turned to look at her: "I am the fourth-rank county head proclaimed by the Holy Majesty, would I be afraid of her as a side concubine?"

Just one sentence made Chu Wan's face turn pale, and Chu Nuan couldn't restrain her chuckle, as if an invisible slap was slapped on her face, mocking her ignorance and ridiculousness.

Chu Wan wanted to find a crack in the ground to sneak in, but she was unwilling, really unwilling...

She is more beautiful than Chu Xi, and more obedient than Chu Zhi, but because of her status as a concubine, she is unknown.

Chu Zhi grew up in a farmer's family, and because she was a descendant, she was on the top of Fuyun. She admitted that she didn't have Chu Zhi's good luck, and she couldn't envy her, but why is Chu Xi taller than her?A peasant girl can be the prince's side concubine, why can't she?

"Fifth sister, that's the side concubine." Chu Wan lowered her eyes, as if she was thinking of Chu Zhi wholeheartedly, "The most important thing for a girl is to marry a good husband."

"En." Chu Zhi nodded.

"Huh?" Chu Wan raised her eyes, is this the end?

"Fourth sister, is there anything else?"

Chu Wan bit her lip, and was about to ask "Are you willing?", when Chu Zhi chuckled, "Fourth Sister, it's better not to say anything, and be careful not to be seen as a joke."

When Chu Wan heard this, her face turned red, and she was even more ashamed and angry.

Chu Zhi has gone away.

"That little sister of yours is really interesting." Meng Wan said when no one was around, "It's clear that she hates Chu Xi, but she tricks you into dealing with Chu Xi in a different way, but this trick of sowing dissension is immature. It’s not embarrassing to see through.”

Chu Nuan didn't expect Meng Wan to speak so sharply, so she couldn't help but look up at her.

I don't want to be caught by Meng Wan: "What do you see me doing? Did I say something wrong?"

Chu Zhi smiled, "Don't embarrass her, she is timid." Then he looked at Chu Nuan, "Don't pay attention to her, she is used to messing around."

Meng Wan turned her eyes around the two of them: "I understand."

"What do you unserstand?"

"She is also her own."

In Chu Zhi's ears, the three words "my own people" felt a long-lost familiarity. She said it silently in her heart, and suddenly smiled: "Yes, they are my own people."

Even so, Meng Wan felt relieved: "Let me ask you, is your sister's words countable? Has the emperor really written the imperial decree?"

"She can say this in front of her grandmother, I'm afraid it's true."

Chu Xi never made a move lightly, she thought she came prepared, not to mention she knew that Meng Wan had no intention of being crowned concubine, but deliberately said congratulatory words to disgust Meng Wan.

"Then what should we do now?" Meng Wan frowned, "The imperial decree has been written!"

"That's right!" Chu Zhi said, "It's just that it's written, but there's no decree. What's the rush?"

"Isn't it easy to make an order after everything is written?" Meng Wan hurriedly circled around, "Yes, of course you are not in a hurry. Anyway, I am the one who will marry the prince, not you."

"I just said that you are smart, why are you confused again? You said that your father disagreed, you just need to tell your father the news, and he has his own way to deal with it."

"What if he can't help it?"

Chu Zhi smiled lightly: "No!"

"Are you so sure?"

"You should trust your father." Chu Zhi reminded her, "You are his most beloved daughter, and he will not watch you fall into a tiger's mouth."

Meng Wan, who was in a bad mood, was suddenly amused by her: "Have you ever seen a tiger as gentle as the prince?"

"The prince is not a tiger, but he is surrounded by people who are stronger than tigers. If he is not careful, his body will be torn into pieces."

As soon as these words came out, the air was silent.

After a while, Meng Wan sighed: "I told you, if it's just to talk about friends, I'd be happy to spend time with the prince. After all, he's handsome, wealthy, and considerate, what a gentle person, but it's a pity that he's getting married!"

Prosperity, wealth, and power are quite attractive, but you have to have that life to enjoy it first. I'm sorry, she is timid and very afraid of death.

"That's right." Meng Wan asked Chu Zhi, "Your sister has become the concubine of the fourth prince, so you don't have any ideas?"

"She said that she is the concubine of the fourth prince, do you believe it?"

"You mean she lied?"

"if not?"

Meng Wan's small eyes showed great doubts: "???"

"In order to appease the queen, the Holy Majesty promised the queen that the imperial decree for the concubine and the fourth prince's side concubine would be issued together. The fourth prince must have known that you came to me, so he asked someone to pass the news to Chu Xi immediately. According to Chu Xi's personality, if she was conferred the title of side concubine, the fourth prince would definitely bring it up, but seeing that Chu Xi didn't know about it, it means that Chu Xi's request for the title of side concubine was refuted by the queen. Come back, the Fourth Prince loves being a hero so much, so naturally he won't tell Chu Xi the truth for a while, because it will hurt his face, and he won't be able to speak."
