The black-bellied prince is all over the city

Chapter 21

She still refused to speak.She still wants everyone to think of herself as a villain.Abandon one's own mother to one who does not care.

But Murong Xiye didn't care.He didn't know what he should care about for a long time.Even when standing in the field of Shura holding a knife and confronting someone who also wants to get out alive, his heart is still peaceful.

A court lady came in suddenly carrying a basin of charcoal, Murong Xiye turned to look at her, she was panic-stricken, two blushes flew up on her cheeks, and her mouth was incoherent. "The slave girl didn't know the prince was here, so she was abrupt, and asked the prince to forgive me."

But the only thing is, the hand holding the basin is still steady.

"Who are you? Why did you come here and give her charcoal?" Murong Xiye thought about it.This court lady seemed to be very scheming, but luckily he didn't say anything else to Lian Xiruo.He also didn't want to drive the maid away easily.If it can be used, it will undoubtedly be very important in this deep palace.

"The servant girl is Jin Se, the maidservant of Concubine Lan." She was holding a basin in her hand and was unable to salute.She put the charcoal next to the stove, and used the iron hook on the side to pound the burning charcoal in the stove.

Murong Xiye had to admit that if Jin Se didn't show up, he would probably throw charcoal fire on Lian Xiruo's face.

"Oh. Concubine Lan actually wanted to repay me in this way because I begged for her. No wonder she couldn't survive in the palace, blindly locked herself in her previous memories, and stubbornly thought that that person would one day Look back at her. So show yourself recklessly. It will be counterproductive. Being thrown into the cold palace is already a lesson, and now you are going to help the king's enemies."

While talking, Murong Xiye didn't forget to look at Jin Se's expression, the woman squatted silently and kept her expression on her face, but she kept fiddling with the corner of her clothes with her fingers.Complicated thoughts are fully revealed.

"This has nothing to do with Concubine Lan. Everything is up to the servants themselves. Because the situation of the master in the cold palace has already worried the servants, let alone the one who has been here for a long time..." She seemed not to know how to address her for a while. The distraught woman in the corner.

She was the late emperor's concubine, so she should be a concubine.But when she was cast into the limbo, she had already been deprived of the title of concubine, and she was just a useless person.With Murong Xiye in front of him again, using a respectful title would inevitably make him unhappy, but if he called her lightly, and if she still had a bright future in the future, the debt might be counted.

She has endured it for 20 years. Even before Viola was born 20 years ago, this woman has already stayed in this cold, dark palace.

"Look, Lian Xiruo, after so many years, you have nothing but this life and a little thought in your heart. You know that it is useless to live, but you have to hold on to this breath. What is it? For what?"

Jin Su came to hear that King Ye had hatred for his mother and concubine, but she thought it was just a way for him to pretend that he understood, and she didn't really want to make his mother suffer.But now it seems that Murong Xiye's eyes are not hiding anything, they are full of deep resentment.She began to regret her behavior a little.

Wanting to cling to the powerful, but knowing that it is a blessing to be by the side of her master, Concubine Lan, and not to be stared at to death by the spurned eyes of others.She entered the palace late, missed the time when Concubine Lan was favored, and was assigned to her side when she had already lost the favor of Emperor Jinyun.At that time, Emperor Jinyun didn't even bother to take a look when he passed by Cuiyun Palace.She has no chance of getting his favor.

Now God gave her a rare opportunity.She didn't care about why King Ye pleaded with Emperor Jinyun for Concubine Lan. She had no reason to let go of the opportunity to get close to King Ye.She thought that pleasing King Ye's mother and concubine could get King Ye's attention, after all, she was too superficial to see through the turmoil in the palace, and her self-reliance on being smart would inevitably lead to disaster for herself.

But she had already opened her mouth, and all the faults were taken on her, and there was no way out.

"My lord, this servant just feels sorry for Aunt Xiruo, and has no other thoughts. If there is any offense, please forgive me." Her posture changed from squatting to kneeling, her hidden thoughts were all disrupted by Murong Xiye, secretly gritted his teeth.

"It doesn't have to be like this. Although this king hates him, I wish she could die clean, but I still enjoy this kind of activity of coming to the cold palace to 'appreciate' her. If she is dead, this king will definitely have less fun. I also appreciate the kindness of others." I don't dare to speculate. I can only say that you really have a heart, Jin Se." After Murong Xiye finished speaking lightly, his thin lips pursed slightly in profile.Under the dim light in the room, the resolute outline on the face was particularly prominent, and Violet was a little obsessed with it for a while, but it took a while to understand.

There is something in his words.I'm afraid he would have seen through his little thoughts not long after he deliberately broke in.The notorious prince on weekdays, the one who lost everything because he killed Prince Xiguo.Actually unfathomable.

I am really shallow.Jin Se didn't know what King Ye was thinking about her, but it seemed that he wanted to take advantage of each other.Although he is a soft-spoken person, he is still in the deep palace, and he knows everything in the palace one step ahead of him.

But Murong Xiye didn't say anything else, just told her to back down.She got up from the ground, and when she crossed the threshold, she caught a glimpse of the smile on Murong Xiye's lips.

That smile is for her.For some reason, she nodded and closed the door, and smiled unconsciously.

The door was closed, and the lady-in-waiting walked away.Murong Xiye was a little annoyed that he couldn't sense the footsteps in advance, Lian Xiruo was really enough to distract him.

"Speaking of it," he walked over and grabbed Lian Xiruo's withered hair, forcing her to raise her head to face him. "My king is very unhappy today. Don't look at me with that expression again. Yang Yi robbed the person I like to be my son-in-law, and he doesn't take me seriously anymore. It's a pity, there are probably many I won't be able to see you for a long time. I have a lot of things to deal with."

Lian Xiruo's dim eyes lit up as expected, and Murong Xiye sneered in his heart.Let go of her hand and let her fall to the ground. "No matter how many more 20 years you spend in the cold palace, they can't compare to the five years I spent in purgatory. You have to remember who stopped me from ascending to the throne. Don't think that I still have any affection for you." It is you who abandoned me first and owed me, so naturally you have to pay back!"

A tear fell silently from Lian Xiruo's cloudy eyes.Everything should not be like this, which is completely contrary to her expectations.She used to think that what she gave was fulfillment, but her meaning was misinterpreted.

In the end, what he brought was the greatest harm to his son.
