Chapter 652: Jealousy
Xiao Ruiyuan has always known that the sister he respects in his heart is beautiful and stunning, otherwise he would not let the master love her so much, and he would not have spared her at the cost of his own life, and Zhao Ling, the new emperor of the Great Wei, also loves his sister like a lot, which shows that his sister is liked by many men.
But what he didn't expect was that Brother Wen would also like his sister, yes, his perception must not be wrong, the eyes that Brother Wen looked at his sister just now were clearly looking at the obsessive gaze of his sweetheart.
Xiao Ruiyuan's fingers curled up unconsciously, and he couldn't help but look at his sister beside him.
That day, my sister frankly told Uncle Ten that she was the patriarch of the Tianding clan, although this news shocked Uncle Ten and Uncle Five, but the two uncles quickly accepted her identity; But Xiao Ruiyuan knew that her sister still hid something from them, and did not tell them that her other identity was the daughter of the Marquis of Jingbei in Qingzhou, and she was also the queen of the new Emperor of Great Wei to tell the world.
With her sister's current status, any man who has a little idea of her will be doomed to hope; You know, that's the woman of the Son of Heaven, even if the two are separated now, she is not something that anyone can think about casually.
If another man has thoughts about his sister, he can ignore it, because he knows that as long as his sister detects that person's intentions, she will reject that person, and that person will also be discouraged after knowing his sister's other identity; But Brother Wen is different for him.
He is the godson of the fifth uncle, a person he can trust and trust, if he can, he really doesn't want Brother Wen to be emotionally hurt; Although he didn't get along with Brother Wen for a long time, he could see that Brother Wen was a very good man, and such a man deserved to be by his side with a woman who really loved him; If Brother Wen, who tasted feelings for the first time, encountered obstacles from his sister, would he leave a shadow in his heart and no longer have hope for feelings in the future?
Thinking of this, Xiao Ruiyuan couldn't help but be a little anxious, and even the eyes that looked at Chu Xingyue were full of indescribable taste.
Chu Xingyue looked at Xiao Ruiyuan's strange eyes, naturally she didn't think much about it, she thought he was hungry, so she hurriedly asked, "Ruiyuan is hungry?" Why don't you let Chun Xing set the meal. ”
Hearing his sister say this, Xiao Ruiyuan realized his gaffe, nodded hurriedly, hiding his true thoughts in his heart, and said, "Yes, in order to wait for my sister, all of us are waiting on an empty stomach, Sister Chunxing, I'm sorry for you." ”
Chun Xing looked at the friendly smile on Xiao Ruiyuan's face, and immediately responded happily, picked up the cotton curtain and walked out of the hall.
So, after Lin Feihan and Yun Niang left, the hall quickly became lively.
Chu Xingyue knew that this was a rare day for her to reunite with her friends and relatives around her, so she cherished it extraordinarily, just this Chinese New Year's Eve dinner had been eaten for almost two hours, and in the end, the little thing in her arms was really unable to bear the fatigue, and when she was about to sleep, it was time to end dinner.
Lin Feihan and Yun Niang used her room to talk, so Chu Xingyue went to Chun Xing's room to rest for a while.
Chun Xing had a lot of things to say to Chu Xingyue, so the master and servant got together and talked almost all night, until the next day when the sky was bright and Hu Chong came to knock on the door, Chu Xingyue was reluctant to entrust the thoughts in her arms to Chun Xing to take care of again, and left the small courtyard wearing a luxurious and wide cloak.
When Chu Xingyue left the return inn, no one noticed, and naturally she didn't alarm anyone after she came back.
In the next few days, Wan Xiuran was by Chu Xingyue's side almost every day, thinking about how to make the beauty smile every day, Chu Xingyue also knew very well how much Wan Xiuran was infatuated with her at this time, although she was very disdainful of this lustful man, but thinking of using him, she would inevitably let him taste some sweetness occasionally.
For example, you can ask him to hold his hand, or smile at him.
Wan Xiuran turned Chu Xingyue's eyes into eyeballs during this time, and naturally he left the Oiran peony in the Phoenix Tower behind.
Peony is a Qinglou woman, the most understandable thing in this world is the relationship between men and women, although she has occupied the days of the Oiran and lived a sought-after life, but because of this position, she has seen too much ugliness between men and women.
Those men who come to the flower building for recreation with a lot of money, which one is not flamboyant, I can't take out my heart and liver to show you when I don't get you, but once I get it, I will no longer cherish it, and I will slowly leave you behind, and when the day comes when I really get rid of it, even if I have said that no matter how many vows and alliances I have made, I will disappear and abandon you.
Therefore, from childhood to adulthood, the scene that Peony has seen the most is the landslide and ground crack that the men and women in the building like first, but it will not be long before they will be separated and heartbreaking; Seeing more of this kind of scene, she gradually became numb.
But every time she saw her, she would tell herself once in her heart that she would never let herself fall to that pathetic state in the future.
But she never thought that the most despicable fate she had ever seen since she was a child would befall her.
Thinking that the man she had carefully selected had abandoned her for the sake of another woman, Peony's beautiful eyes immediately burst out with fierceness.
She was born in poverty, and was sold by her parents to the building to endure ** since she was a child, in order to cater to all kinds of guests, she has learned piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and naturally has also learned some means of not entering the stream; Over the years, under the influence of the environment of Phoenix Tower, she has also seen a lot of pickling techniques, but she never imagined that one day, she would use these techniques to deal with a woman, but the purpose was to get a man.
Although she was still a little hesitant before doing these things, she knew that she had to do it.
There are endless beautiful girls in the building, and she is getting older and older, last month, ** actually wanted to force her to pick up a seafarer with a fat brain, the seafarer is a well-known evil guest in the Phoenix Building, although he is generous, but the girl who was handled by him basically has to lie in bed for half a month before she can get out of bed, which shows that this person is definitely not a good thing.
It stands to reason that such a guest, she doesn't need to say more, and the people in the building won't arrange it for her, but now, **Zi actually wants her to pick up this kind of guest, isn't it just that as she gets older, there are fewer and fewer benefactors, and the money she makes in the building is not as much as before, so she was pushed out? !
Although she saved herself at that time, and took out the momentum she had cultivated over the years to drink the ** who used her as a cash cow, she didn't dare to guarantee that with the passage of time, she would continue to protect herself next time; So, in such a situation, she must find a way to get out of here as soon as possible; And the only person who can save her from here is Wan Lang.
In Peony's view, Wan Xiuran is the last straw in her life, and whoever dares to show up to snatch this straw from her at this time will inevitably solve the eye-catching person mercilessly.
Therefore, after knowing that the reason why Wan Xiuran didn't come to her during this period of time was because of the appearance of other women around her, Peony, who painted delicate makeup, pursed her delicate red lips and smiled.
Xi'er, the maid who served Peony, was a smart and clever little girl, who was best at observing words and feelings, and was quite witty; This is also the main reason why she has been able to rise from a little girl doing rough work to a personal maid by the side of the Oiran in the building over the years.
Xi'er thought that she still knew the girl she was serving well, and now that she saw Peony smiling so weirdly, she immediately realized that something big might happen next. Thinking of the news that the girl asked her to go out to investigate, I already knew a little bit in my heart.
So, he carefully added another cup of warm tea for Peony, and said, "Girl, do you want the slave to go back to the inn to deliver a message to Wan Gongzi and let him come to see you?" ”
Peony listened to Xi'er's crisp voice, and did not rush to answer, but pointed to the bronze mirror on the dresser on the side, and said, "Go and bring me the mirror." ”
Xi'er takes care of Peony all the year round, and she knows best that this Peony girl loves beauty; So after hearing this command, he immediately brought the bronze mirror and sent it to Peony, and then said sweetly: "The girl is still so good-looking, and she is still the most beautiful beauty in the Phoenix Building." ”
Peony knew that Xi'er said these words half true and half false, her facial features were indeed good, but no matter how beautiful her facial features were, they couldn't withstand the years of torture and torture; Looking at the fine lines that have faintly emerged in the corners of her eyes, even if Peony is no longer willing to admit it, she has to hang her proud head in front of the years; resigned to believing that she is getting old, and if she doesn't plan for her future, it won't take a few more years for her to be kicked out of this building and fend for herself.
As long as she thought that she might have such an end, Peony felt cold all over her body, and the whole person seemed to be soaked in ice water, which made her unbearable.
'Bang'!
Peony slapped the bronze mirror in her hand on the table in a depressed mood, she didn't want to look at the fine lines on her face anymore, and she didn't want to see herself with a scared look in the bronze mirror.
"Xi'er, let me ask you, is the girl who was favored by Wan Gongzi more beautiful than me? Or younger than me? ”
Xi'er observed Peony's expression, and when she saw that she must know, she didn't hide it from her, and said, "The slave doesn't hide it from the girl, and the people who sent it out didn't actually see the whole picture of the woman, but once the girl seemed to open the window, and inadvertently let our people see a glimpse; According to the report of the people sent out, the girl was so stunning that at first glance she did not look like a mortal person, which made people's hearts stir and she could not return to her senses for a long time. ”
