Chapter 196
"I know, I will not attend the funeral. Let Mrs. Qi Xuan take my place. I am not suitable for me to appear with a child now. In that kind of scene, no one will say anything."
In fact, she just didn't want to go there, didn't want to see those women, and in the end she was unhappy.
"Yes, I know, I will tell Mrs. Qi Xuan now."
After Ruo'er left, 6 Yan Qing turned to look at Concubine Li: "Since it's this time, then sister should go back."
"Okay, this is a funeral. I'm afraid it's hard to say if I don't go back."
"Sister Li must take good care of herself when she goes back. If you feel unhappy, come to the palace. The palace will always welcome you." 6 Yan Qing said to her with a smile. She has been living here for nearly half a month, and she is also happy.
"Look at what you said. No matter how unpleasant I am, the Prince's Mansion is my home. How can I leave just by saying that?"
6 When Yan Qing heard her say this, the smile on her face gradually disappeared. She reached out to hold her hand, with a hint of apology in her eyes.
"Sister Li said something that is indeed a bit inappropriate for me, but I must tell you that the prince must die. Sister Li should make plans for her future earlier."
For her, this matter was really cruel. She now wants to live with the prince, but she wants to kill the prince herself. She likes Sister Li so much and hopes that Sister Li can live a good life.
It's a pity that she can't do it.
When Concubine Li heard this, she sighed helplessly.
"I actually understand that I have stood on the opposite side from the beginning. When I first met at that time, I thought you were the future princess and had some hostility towards you, but I really like you, so I thought that even if you became a mistress, it would be a good thing. Until you married the prince, I suddenly realized that you and I were already standing on the opposite side."
She couldn't help feeling a little sad as she said this.
"Yes, I really like your sister, but it's a pity that you are standing opposite me because my husband is different." 6 Yan Qing also sighed helplessly.
"I understand all of what you said, and I have never blamed you." Concubine Li smiled and held her hand back. In fact, 6 Yan Qing had helped her a lot. If it weren't for her, the last incident might have killed her child.
It was really not easy for her to meet a friend, otherwise she would really feel that she had no relatives or reason in this world.
"Actually, you are right. Even if you don't take action against the prince, the prince will take action against you and the prince. In this struggle, I choose to believe you. To me, the prince is my husband, but not the only person I rely on. If I were asked to choose, I would rather marry a farmer and live a mediocre life for the rest of my life, or not." Concubine Li looked into the distance, her eyes became empty, and she could see that deep in her eyes were gradually sad.
"Although he is my husband, he does not love me. He only loves me young and beautiful. When I get old that day, I am still an abandoned person, or I am not even as good as the girls and women in this mansion. I didn't understand this at first, but later as I saw more and more women in the prince's mansion, I suddenly understood that even if I die, he would not be sad. I am just a tool to have children."
"There are many values in people. I hope Sister Li will find the value of her own survival as soon as possible."
"Yes, now that I have a child, I won't lose for this child. I want to watch him grow up with my own eyes and then watch him get married and start a business. If possible, I hope he is not the royal prince, but just an ordinary person."
She looked at the child sleeping soundly in the cradle, her eyes full of love.
"I'm talking too much about this. I'll go back to the prince's mansion first. Thank you for your care during this period." Concubine Li walked over and hugged the child in her arms, asking the maid to pack up and prepare to leave.
"You're welcome, this is what I should do."
After she saw Concubine Li away, she stood in the yard for a while, and couldn't help but start to feel sad.
6 Yan Qing looked at her back and suddenly felt that this back was a bit desolate. Could it be that a woman must be a tool for giving birth? A woman just happened to be able to give birth to a child.
She touched her belly, and she knew in her heart that if Li Yi really did something sorry for her in the future, she would take her child away and would not maintain this marriage just because someone else said to her for the sake of the child's good.
Before I knew it, snowflakes were falling outside. The New Year was about to be celebrated, and even the snow was getting attentive.
She looked up at the sky and was about to leave when she suddenly felt a hint of warmth. She turned around and saw that Zuo Yangming had put a cloak on her body.
"I've gotten out of school, why can't I go to the room?"
6 Yan Qing lowered his head and smiled, tightening his cloak, feeling that he was really a little cold.
"I'm just about to go back. I should have enjoyed such a good snow scene. But unfortunately, it's a pity that the weather is cold and I don't have the mood to enjoy the snow scene."
She turned around and was about to go back, and Zuo Yangming followed her: "Looking at your expression, I seem to be unhappy. Has it happened to you?"
"There is nothing, I'm just thinking about some things and people, and I'm a little sad. This woman always feels sad. But Mr. Zuo lives in the palace, but is it still used to it?
He came here several times, except for the first day of meeting, he didn't have much chatting well at other times. In fact, Yan Qing deliberately wanted to avoid him.
Because the two of them had some unpleasant things before, she felt that she didn't know what to say when they met, but then she thought about it carefully, so why bother? We are all friends, maybe he never minded these things himself, and if he suggested, he would really look very stingy.
"The people in the royal palace are very good. They are also well cared for, but we are living here to cause trouble for you."
"The palace was originally deserted, but now it's lively when people come, and it's not so deserted this year. Why don't you see Brother Xiuming? You went out to play with Xun'er again?"
Zuo Xiuming now has a good relationship with 6 Mingxuan, and the two of them often go out together.
"Yes, but today a man named Liu Minzhi came and went with them. Who is that Liu Minzhi? I saw that Xiuming was a little hostile. It should be fine if they went out together?"
Did that person come here specially because he felt the crisis?
"Liu Minzhi, it's Xun'er's fiancé, and they have a engagement." She replied, then thought for a while and said again: "Nothing should happen. Liu Minzhi is a steady person, and Xun'er should be able to solve it. If the fight really starts, Brother Xiuming is not Xun'er's opponent."
"Aren't you afraid that Liu Minzhi and Xiuming will fight?" Zuo Yangming was actually concerned about this matter.
6 Yan Qing smiled and didn't care at all.
"Don't worry, Liu Minzhi doesn't know martial arts, and Xun'er won't let others beat him."
"So that's it. It seems that Liu Minzhi and Xun'er have a good relationship." He didn't know what to say. No matter how you look at it, it's all his younger brother, which is more dangerous. "But I think Xiuming doesn't mean that to Xueer, so it's better not to have any misunderstandings. He just treats Xun'er as his nephew."
After all, it was the first time that he had a sister, and this sister and an apprentice, and he was also happy. As the elder brother, he understood what the younger brother was thinking.
"Yes, Brother Xiuming told me about this before. Although Liu Minzhi is just a scholar, he is not so stingy. As long as he explains it clearly, he will naturally understand."
"But you, do you think these royal palaces are having a happy life?"
6 Yan Qing was confused by this question and turned around and looked at her in confusion.
"Why did Mr. Zuo suddenly ask me this question? This is my home, so how could I not be happy?"
Zuo Yangming lowered his head and suddenly felt that he was asking the wrong question. He immediately explained: "I don't mean that. I mean that you were originally a man in the world. He has lived in the world for decades. He suddenly returned here and was bound by these rules and regulations. Do you feel used to it?"
So that's how it is. You can go and smile and breathe a sigh of relief. Looking at the sky not far away, it snowed today, and I felt the coldness around me, but this was something she didn't like.
"I can't say that I'm used to it or not, but I'm quite adapted to this kind of life. Have I told Mr. Zuo? I'm a scheming woman, and a life that is too ordinary is the most unsuitable for me."
In fact, if she doesn’t have to choose and live a dull life, she is also used to it. She can’t say whether she is used to a certain life, but she can adapt no matter what she is behind her.
"That's good, it seems that I'm over-concerned." There was a hint of loneliness in his eyes.
"Thank you Mr. Zuo for your concern."
"Sister-in-law is not good, no more good."
Before she could reach the residence, she heard Li Ximeng reaching out and calling her in panic.
"Why did the princess lose her mind? What happened?" At this time, shouldn't he appear at the funeral of the Crown Princess to help? Or accompany the sad queen in the palace. After all, the Crown Princess will die tomorrow, so how could he have time to come here?
"I just came from the queen. I heard that my father had already planned to let Shui Qingjin be the crown princess, and there was only one crown princess, and there was nothing else in Jiang Xue."
6 Yan Qing also felt surprised about this.
"It's not yet mourning, why did the Crown Princess decide first?"
"Yes, because Shui Qingjin is the management of all things in the Prince's Mansion during this period. The Empress likes her very much, so she told her father directly about this matter and was about to be re-enacted after the funeral. I was anxious so I came here to tell you about this matter first."
"I understand. The princess should do your own business first. If the queen sees you are not there, she will probably blame you again."
She was still very calm, but Li Ximeng was a little uneasy.
"Okay, I understand, but you have to think of a way. If she became the crown princess, it would not be a good thing for us, especially if the third sister-in-law was like that by her, it would probably be an incomplete thing." And maybe she would make even more trouble in the future.
6 Yan Qing thought that Sima Yunhua was still lying on the bed now, and couldn't help but sigh. She also didn't want Shui Qingjin to sit in the position of the Crown Princess, otherwise she would be even more powerful.
She still doesn't know that 6 Mingchen's true thoughts will probably attack Sima Yunhua.
"I understand. I will handle the next work, don't worry."
When Li Ximeng heard him say this, she could only feel relieved.
After the person left, Zuo Yangming turned to Yan Qing and said, "I suddenly felt that the war between this woman was also quite terrible."
Although he didn't understand it very well, he couldn't help but start to sigh.
"No, sometimes women are more powerful than men when they are cruel. After all, there is an old saying, "It's the most toxic woman's heart."
6 Yan Qing smiled. She didn't care about this at all. After all, there are indeed many such people, which is also a fact.
"Then what are you going to do next? You don't want her to be the crown princess, but this matter was ordered by the emperor. Can you still go against the emperor's wishes?" Zuo Yangming suddenly became curious about this matter.
"I can't go against the emperor's wishes, but I can let the emperor take it back, or change my mind."
6 Yan Qing walked forward with a proud smile, as if everything was sure to win.
"If Mr. Zuo has nothing to do, it's better to have a cup of tea. There are no people in the royal palace today."
"Okay, then it's better to obey your orders than respect."
Li Yi went to the Prince's Mansion to help, and I don't know when it would be back. Ruoer informed Mrs. Qi Xuan and came. Seeing that they were playing chess, she put the charcoal fire around them, standing aside without saying a word.
6 Yan Qing is a good chess player. No matter who plays chess with her, it will be difficult for her to win. She lost both mottos after playing two consecutive games.
"I always thought that my chess skills were pretty good, but I never expected that I would lose two games in a row now."
"As the saying goes, there are heavens beyond heaven, and there are people beyond humans, not to mention that Mr. Zuo's own thoughts are not at all on playing chess, so I won so easily." Although I don't know what he was thinking, I could feel that he was indeed a little restless.
"Indeed, I was still thinking about my brother and Liu Minzhi just now. I was worried that they would fight. As expected, I still couldn't be distracted."
