Chapter 430 Why Does No One Like Me Anymore?
Chapter 430 Why Does No One Like Me Anymore?
Outside the house, a loud thunder roared, and a cold spring rain began to fall in the night sky.
The thunder woke Xiao Qingxi up from her bed. She opened her eyes and saw that she was home. Her father and mother were guarding her side. She burst into tears out of grievance.
"Father, mother, my child was killed by that bitch Lin Rouxin! I want to kill her, I want to kill her!"
Princess Ning hurriedly comforted her: "Okay, okay, kill her. Mother will kill her for you. You don't need to do it yourself. Do you hear me?"
"No, that's not right, Mother, don't kill her yet!"
"Why?"
"Because if I let her die, it would be too easy for her! I want to make her live a life worse than death!"
"Okay, I'll do whatever you say."
Princess Ning was reluctant to blame her daughter for her recklessness tonight. She had already paid a heavy price. How could she live if she was scolded again?
-
Wutong Court.
Shen Wantang took off his coat and prepared to rest.
Qin Xin trotted in and said, "Crown Princess, the Crown Prince is here!"
Shen Wantang was stunned: "What is he doing here at this time?" Isn't he afraid that she will stay to consummate the marriage? How dare he come here in the middle of the night?
"I asked the prince, but he refused to say anything."
Shen Wantang sighed: "Then let him come in first!"
"I called him, but the prince refused to come in. He is standing at the gate of our yard!"
"What? Isn't it raining outside?"
"Yes, it's still raining heavily, but the prince would rather get wet than come in. He refused the umbrella offered by Mo Ji and just stayed there in the rain, as if..."
"Like what?"
Qin Xin muttered in a very low voice: "It's as if she is so sad that she wants to drench herself to death. Bah, bah, bah, this servant deserves death, this servant shouldn't talk nonsense."
Shen Wantang did not blame her for using random words. She quickly put on her clothes and led people out.
Xiao Qingyuan didn't know what was wrong with him again. It would be bad enough if he got gonorrhea, but it would be bad if he implicated her. What's more, if he was sick, wouldn't he have to ask her to treat him?
Shen Wantang walked to the gate of the courtyard holding an umbrella, and saw Xiao Qingyuan standing in the rain, looking distraught and sad.
Shen Wantang felt that this scene was somewhat familiar, as if he had acted out this scene before.
"Prince, please come inside. It's a cold night, don't get wet."
Shen Wantang said this and raised the umbrella above his head.
Xiao Qingyuan turned his head and glanced at her.
Only then did Shen Wantang see that his eyes were red and watery, as if he was crying.
He was very handsome, and at this moment, with his eyes red from crying, he had a kind of broken beauty.
He looks tall, fragile, handsome and tragic. Any woman with a little sympathy will feel sorry for him and fall in love with him.
When he's not doing anything naughty, he looks harmless and is a handsome man that's hard to resist.
Shen Wantang looked at his face and understood why so many women admired Xiao Qingyuan in the past.
However, Shen Wantang was indifferent to his beauty. Anyone who had seen his empty mind and capricious temperament would ignore his handsomeness.
"Shen Wantang."
"Ah."
"Tell me, why am I becoming less and less popular? It seems that even my mother doesn't like me anymore."
Because you’re not very smart!
Shen Wantang said in his heart.
"Your Highness, you're overthinking it. The ones who love you the most in this world are the prince and princess. The princess will not dislike you, no matter what you do or say."
Xiao Qingyuan shook his head: "No, my mother now wants a son like Gu Qianhan. She suddenly likes cold and ruthless people and doesn't like my kindness. Tell me, is Gu Qianhan really that good?"
Shen Wantang was silent.
She couldn't tell whether Gu Qianhan was a good person or not, but she knew very well that Xiao Qingyuan was not very smart.
She guessed that the princess might have wanted to kill Lin Rouxin again, but Xiao Qingyuan didn't want to kill anyone, so Princess Ning said in anger that she liked Gu Qianhan.
Just as these thoughts flashed through her mind, she heard Xiao Qingyuan say straightforwardly: "My mother asked me to kill Lin Rouxin."
Shen Wantang nodded and thought to himself that it was as expected.
"I won't. I won't kill anyone. I will never kill anyone in my life."
"Well, the prince is kind-hearted."
"Rouxin should be innocent. She won't harm Qingxi, and she doesn't dare to harm Qingxi. I think Qingxi is the only one who can harm her."
Shen Wantang: “…”
Xiao Qingyuan was born with such a handsome face, could it be that he exchanged his brain for it?
She suddenly understood why her mother-in-law wanted a son like Gu Qianhan. Although he was cold, he had brains!
Unfortunately, her son cannot be replaced, so Princess Ning can only think about it.
"By the way, let me tell you something."
"what's up?"
"I plan to let Yanluo out of the house."
Shen Wantang was not surprised. After all, Minister Yu had already written a memorial to the emperor, complaining that his daughter was killed by Xiao Qingyuan's concubine, but Xiao Qingyuan insisted on protecting his concubine and refused to hand over the person.
First, Xiao Qingxi pushed the orphan girl of the Lin family into the river and left her body without a trace. Later, Xiao Qingyuan's concubine sold illegal drugs and killed the minister's daughter. The emperor wanted to cover up for both of them but he had no idea where to start.
According to Qin Xin, the emperor was so angry with the brother and sister that he couldn't eat and became thin.
This evening, the emperor sent eunuchs to reprimand Xiao Qingyuan. In addition, the eldest son of the Yu family held on to Xiao Qingyuan and refused to let him go. Xiao Qingyuan could not withstand such great pressure, so he had to hand over Chu Yanluo.
However, handing the concubine over to the Yu family might not be good for his reputation, so Xiao Qingyuan said "let her go out of the house".
After Chu Yanluo leaves the house, whatever the Yu family wants to do to her will have nothing to do with Xiao Qingyuan, and he can get away with it by killing the second Miss Yu.
Shen Wantang felt a little sad for a moment. In his previous life, Xiao Qingyuan was deeply in love with Chu Yanluo. He was so infatuated with her that even after Chu Yanluo died, he wanted to commit suicide with her. He even chose the same way of death as Chu Yanluo.
In this life, he can actually let go.
It seems that his feelings for Chu Yanluo have run out.
"Shen Wantang, why don't you say anything? Do you also think that it's a bit unkind of me to let Yan Luo go at this time?"
Shen Wantang didn't think it was unkind of him to let Chu Yanluo go. She thought it was unkind of him to stand at her door in the rain in the middle of the night, and it was also unkind of him to talk to her about all sorts of things and not let her sleep.
Her arms were about to break from holding the umbrella, and her cloak was a little thin, allowing the cold, damp vapor to penetrate into her bones.
"Your Highness is very kind and righteous. Aunt Chu has brought this upon herself. Your Highness, it's getting late. Shouldn't you take a rest?"
"I don't want to rest. Please talk to me for a while."
Shen Wantang glared at him in the dark, but said, "Then let's talk inside. It's cold outside. Don't let the prince get frozen."
"I'm not cold, I'm just talking outside, look at this rain curtain, how poetic it is."
Shen Wantang couldn't stand it anymore: "I'm cold! Mo Ji, help the prince into the house!"
