Chapter 59
Cangwu Jingyuan was sitting on the steps outside the palace gate sharpening a bamboo flute, when she suddenly heard eager footsteps, and then Cangwu Jinxiu rushed in angrily.
"Cangwu Jingyuan!" Cangwu Jinxiu's voice was very piercing, Cangwu Jingyuan couldn't help frowning, and subconsciously looked behind her.
"Let me ask you, did you plan to frame Jin Rong?"
Cangwu Jingyuan glanced at her meaningfully: "I have no grievances with my sixth sister, why should I frame her?"
"You!" Cangwu Jinxiu was anxious: "Jin Rong is still so young, you let people ruin her innocence, and pretended to ask the empress to marry her to that beggar's head. Let me tell you, I will take this Tell the Empress about it, and see if she will believe you or me!"
"My sister is really weird today. I have kindly fulfilled the sixth sister's feelings and helped her cover up her reputation. Why is it my fault again? I know," Cangwu Jingyuan's voice suddenly dropped, "My sister has always disliked me, but I really treat my sister as a relative."
"Stop being hypocritical!" Cangwu Jinxiu raised her voice and shouted, the empress who was having dinner with Shen Chen in the Chaoyang Palace was attracted by this sound.
"Is it Jinxiu outside?" the queen asked.
"Looks like the eldest princess."
"What is she arguing about outside?" The queen frowned: "Did she often come to Chaoyang Palace to yell?"
Shen Chen didn't speak, but took a sip of soup.
Shen Chen originally wanted to see what happened, but was stopped by the empress. In her impression, although Cangwu Jinxiu was arrogant, she had never said such harsh words, and she couldn't help but want to hear her real words.
"Sister Huang, I don't know what you are here for today. If you are asking for a crime, please come back another day. You also know that Your Majesty has been in poor health for the past few days. If you do this, it will affect his self-cultivation. It would be unfilial if we, being juniors, offend the juniors."
"What kind of bullshit noble gentleman." Cangwu Jingyuan spat forcefully: "It's just a male pet who waits on the bed, and he really thinks how precious he is!" Shen Chen paused after hearing this, the queen's Her complexion suddenly turned ugly, she simply stood by the door and listened carefully to Cangwu Jinxiu's cursing.
And Cangwu Jinxiu was still yelling unknowingly: "You are right in one sentence, I hate you, not just hate you, I hate you, I wish you to die. What is wrong with my father, your father That kind of person will die in the palace sooner or later."
"Princess." Cangwu Jingyuan cut off Cangwu Jinxiu's words. The empress thought she would get angry, but Cangwu Jingyuan still suppressed her anger and tried to maintain peace: "I told you, your lord has been here for the past few days. Resting, it is not suitable to be disturbed, you go back first, and I will visit you at another day, and then you have to reason and scold, so please listen to it."
"I think you have a guilty conscience."
Seeing that Cangwu Jingyuan didn't reply back, Cangwu Jinxiu thought she was afraid of telling the empress herself, so she became more and more complacent: "Let me tell you, don't think that the empress will pay attention to you now that you have a little reputation, no matter what No matter what you do, it is useless. The empress loves me the most. Even if my father is arrested now, the empress will release him soon. Don't forget, I have the Shen family on me. Blood. But what about you, what do you have? By the way, you have a noble gentleman. Thinking about him, he is really pitiful. He can only rely on his body in exchange for the queen’s favor. He is trying to win something for you. Stop climbing on the queen's bed!"
Looking at Cangwu's beautiful and proud face, Cangwu Jingyuan clenched her fists tightly, but she endured it when she thought that the empress and noble gentleman were still in the room.
"To be honest, I really don't understand whether your fate is hard or your fate is a disaster. Why so many people and so many methods can't kill you."
"What does she mean by that?" After hearing Cangwu Jinxiu's presumptuous words, the empress laughed back in anger, just at this moment Shen Chen got up and walked to her side.
"What did she mean by that?"
Shen Chen looked at the door frame, and said lightly: "Actually, even if Jing Yuan lived in Chaoyang Palace, she was never safe for a moment. Before that, she was poisoned constantly and almost killed by an assassin. She was afraid You were worried, so you didn't say anything. Don't look at her calm and steady appearance all day long. In fact, she is still a little girl, and she is also afraid. Several times I was so angry that I wanted to investigate to the end. She also said that she was afraid of causing disturbances among the officials. Make you worry."
"Who on earth is so bold that even dares to frame the princess." The queen said this, but she had an answer in her heart.
"Didn't the queen wonder why I chose her as my adopted daughter?"
Shen Chen continued: "At that time, He Shijun had just passed away, and your Majesty, you were busy with government affairs, and the fourth princess was like a duckweed, helpless. Do you know that when I first saw her, she was still She is so small, she is obviously very scared, but she still has to pretend not to be scared. Later I heard that her life in this palace was worse than that of a palace maid, and she actually shared a cold steamed bun with her personal servant, so I couldn't bear it , so I recognized her as my adopted daughter."
After Shen Chen finished speaking, he turned to look at the queen. The queen didn't show any expression on her face, but guilt was already showing in her eyes.
"It's my fault." The queen closed her eyes and opened them again, she slowly opened the door.
Cangwu Jinxiu here was scolding happily, suddenly seeing the queen appearing in front of him, he couldn't react for a while, and just stared blankly with his mouth open.
"Mother, noble lord" Cangwu Jingyuan quickly admitted his mistake, "It was the son's mishandling that disturbed the mother and noble lord, and punished the mother."
"You're right, you're doing the right thing."
It was rare for the empress to reach out and touch Cangwu Jingyuan's hair, then looked at Cangwu Jinxiu, and reprimanded: "It seems that you haven't learned your lesson, where did you copy the female rings and virtues I told you to copy?" Go, as the eldest princess, not only can't set an example for younger siblings, but also cause trouble all day long, uttering wild words, those vulgar words you just said, which one should be said by the eldest princess?"
Cangwu Jinxiu didn't expect the empress to be inside, and was so frightened by the reprimand that her face turned pale.
"Jinxiu, I loved you in the past because although you were arrogant and domineering, you were pure and kind-hearted, but now your inconsistencies in words and deeds make me very suspicious. It was done on purpose just to please me."
"I don't dare." Cangwu Jinxiu was stupid and knew the seriousness of the words, so she quickly knelt down.
"I don't care whether you were sincere or false in the past, in short, I can't let me see what happened today a second time. Shen He, I won't let it go. I will find you a good tutor and old nanny again. Let them teach you etiquette. Your father knew the law and broke the law. I put him in the cold palace. He deserved what he deserved. You are not allowed to intercede for him again."
"Also," said the last sentence, the Queen's voice became cold, "Don't think that you can do whatever you want because you are my daughter, the Shen family is the Shen family after all, no matter how powerful it is, it has nothing to do with you, do you hear me?"
"I heard." Cangwu Jinxiu fell to the ground in fright.
"Get up when you hear it. From today on, you are not allowed to trouble your fourth sister. Take advantage of these two days to visit your sixth sister, otherwise it will be difficult for you to meet when she gets married."
Cangwu Jinxiu's arrogance has long since disappeared. When she heard the Queen's categorical admission that she would not let Shen He go, and thought that her own sister would marry someone else in the near future, she couldn't help but shed tears in frustration, and she didn't dare to let Shen He go. Loudly, bid farewell and left.
"Jing Yuan," the empress looked at Cang Wu Jing Yuan when Cangwu Jinxiu left, "It was the empress who ignored you in the past that caused you to suffer so much, but you have to remember that you are a princess, My daughter, if you have something to do in the future, you can tell the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother will make decisions for you."
"My son, thank you, Queen Mother." Cangwu Jingyuan thanked her, but there was no disturbance in her heart. Long before the Queen put her in prison, she could no longer believe in this belated maternal love.
Shen He was thrown into the cold palace, and the remaining six princesses and the eldest princess couldn't make much of a difference. Seeing that the road in the palace was getting smoother, Cang Wu Jingyuan dared to relax and be with Bai Qian. The two stayed together all day long. Playing chess and playing the piano, talking about history and Taoism, they became more and more tacit, and even the fifth prince, who had always been at odds with her, had to admit their relationship.
"It's not that I can't compete with you, it's that I don't want to compete with you. I didn't lose to you this time, but I respect Bai Qian's choice." Seeing the duplicity of Cangwu Jingrui, Cangwu Jingyuan felt amused and couldn't help it She teased him aloud: "So I was competing with you, I thought Bai Qian had only one choice for me."
"Don't be too complacent." Cangwu Jingrui obviously put it down, but still refused to admit defeat: "If you treat Bai Qian badly, I will still snatch her here, and then you won't be able to laugh."
"You won't have this opportunity." Cangwu Jingyuan raised her hands interlocking with Bai Qian's in front of him: "Do you have anything else to do? We're going to do something unspeakable."
"Cangwu Jingyuan, let me tell you, the women chasing the prince line up from inside the palace gate to outside the palace gate, just wait, I'll find one for you to see right now." The two of them could still hear him when they walked far away. roar.
Speaking of Cangwu Jingrui, I have to mention one more person, Cangwu Lingyu. Ever since he found out about Cangwu Jingyuan and Bai Qian, he has gradually let go of his affection for Bai Qian. Apart from reading books and playing chess every day, She will also go out of the palace to see patients for the common people, and after coming and going, she will be with a woman from an aristocratic family. Of course Cangwu Jingyuan is very happy to see that Cangwu Lingyu has someone she really likes, but she will not say the reason for her happiness More because I lost a rival in love.
Because Cangwu Jingyuan knew the pain of not being able to be with the person she liked, and was also afraid that Cangwu Lingyu, who was like a wild crane, would become a victim of politics, so she discussed with Bai Qian and asked the Queen for an order for the two on a certain day. A man bestows a marriage, and this good marriage is fulfilled.
