The First Empress - Chapter 183
Chapter 183 Exquisite Step By Step
Afterwards, Prince Tuoba really did not mention the matter of meeting the Western barbarians. He had already taken out the courage of “Never Break the Loulan and Never Return” and went to Concubine De’s palace three or five minutes later. He originally thought that he would become one with Princess Zhen Xi and share weal and woe with each other for a long time, but he did not expect that it would backfire, causing Zhen Xi to be even more afraid of him.
On this day, Tuoba Rui arrived at Princess Zhenxi’s palace.
Zhen Ri didn’t have the heart to calm down. Because it was spring, people were always tired. Zhen Xi was napping on the beard. Tuoba Rui held a bunch of orchids in his hand and prepared to give them to Zhen Xi. Coincidentally, he saw Zhen Xi fall asleep and involuntarily walked to Zhen Xi’s side.
As expected, her shoulders were sliced and her waist was as plain as an oath. After Zhen Xi fell asleep, she knitted her forehead melancholy. It was probably because of Zhejiang Province that Zhen Xi felt very sad. Tuoba Rui slowly walked to Zhen Xi’s bedroom and reached out his hand to grab Zhen Xi’s three-inch golden lotus.
‘”Ah, there’s an assassin. Catch an assassin–” Jenny felt the strength from her ankle and quickly widened her eyes. The plum blossom hairpin above her head was also trembling, showing the fear in her master’s heart.
The guards had already rushed in in groups of three or five. Zhenxi hurriedly put her feet back and hid them in the brocade quilt.
“What are you doing?” Zhenxi questioned. Her eyes were filled with doubt. Even her mother couldn’t afford to offend this person. Even if she was afraid, she had to endure it. The guards knew his identity, so they naturally kept their distance, like snakes, insects, rats, and ants.
Zhenxi did not dare to act rashly, nor did she dare to let the guards leave completely. In his haste, he placed the plum blossom hairpin on his neck and said, “Get out–”
Tuoba Rui was also not afraid of being threatened. “I’m just here to see Princess Zhenxi. Since Princess Zhenxi doesn’t like me, I can say it clearly. Why do I have to resist like this?” Even so, Tuoba Rui continued to press forward step by step, slowly approaching Zhen Xi.
Zhenxi closed her eyes. The tears at the corner of her eyes had already flowed down her azure porcelain cheeks. Her entire body was trembling. “Mother, mother, help!” The voice of calling for help slowly reached the front.
Tuoba Rui didn’t think much of it. He placed a bunch of Hui Lan beside Zhenxi’s pillow and said, “This is something I occasionally got in the Upper Forest Garden. Zi Lan Jiuwan’s bloody skin is too much. If you put it on top of your head and let me take a look, I will leave this place.”
Zhenxi hesitated. Seeing that her situation was becoming more and more unfavorable to her, she hurriedly pulled back her steps and jumped off the beard. She really did not expect that a person would have such a powerful explosive force when they were trying to survive. Zhenxi moved like a rabbit and had already taken three or two steps to the ground.
Her graceful figure trembled slightly in the early cold wind. Ping Ting wore a blaspheming robe, Tuoba Rui couldn’t help but feel uneasy. Tuoba Rui hugged Zhen Xi in his arms. Zhen Xi’s slender waist was not enough to grasp her. Her exquisite figure was suddenly held in her palm. Tuoba Rui couldn’t help but be overjoyed. “I got what I wanted today. Zhen Xi’s waist is as soft as willow branches. She is as handsome as a white peony. Quickly!”
“Prince Tuoba, Prince, please let go, let go of me.” Zhenxi’s large glass eyes shone brightly. She was terrified, The fear of not arriving was slowly being predicted, The pain slowly penetrated into his bone marrow. He didn’t even dare to look at Prince Tuoba. Tuoba Rui stared at Zhen Xi like a black glittering stone and said, “Perhaps the Emperor didn’t tell me that you gave it to me because he didn’t cook the raw rice into cooked rice. I think so, the raw rice is still raw rice, so it’s impossible to cook the cooked rice.” As he spoke, his cold eyes immediately opened. “I can’t trouble you to enter the bridal chamber earlier. Don’t you believe that the Emperor of the Dali Dynasty will punish me for robbing a princess?”
Zhen Xi felt even more afraid, “Mother Concubine, Mother Concubine, save me.”
Because De Fei was in the Sabbath, At this time, she didn’t hear Zhenxi’s answer at all. Moreover, other than the servants who dared to send messages to Concubine De, everyone else was afraid. This Tuoba Rui was like a ghost. Not only did he have a vulgar description, he was also filled with hatred in his heart. If he had a grudge, he would definitely get revenge. No one would let his head move for this matter.
‘”Woo–” The cherry mouth was already sealed by the vermillion red lips and slowly moved to the bedside.
Zhenxi looked at the wretched face in front of her. She felt nausea slowly swarming in her heart. There was almost a kind of volcanic eruption in her stomach pouch. She was slowly pushed to the side of the beard. Zhen Xi unwillingly reached out and held the plum hairpin that had just fallen into the brocade quilt in her hand. Then, she slowly raised it and stabbed it into the beast’s neck.
He stopped moving and looked at Zhenxi’s face, which seemed to be overwhelming, with a trace of anger. “What are you doing?”
Zhenxi retreated repeatedly. She hugged her knees and said, Feeling that it was inappropriate, Zhenxi quickly kowtowed to Tuoba Rui on the beard. “The prince let go of Zhenxi. Zhenxi is too young to do anything wrong. If she offended the prince, she would ask for a lot of forgiveness. Zhenxi is very grateful. The prince treats Zhenxi like this, so Zhenxi is naturally shameless. If the prince keeps on being wicked, Zhenxi can only thank the prince herself.” As he spoke, he raised the plum blossom hairpin and was about to stab it down his neck.
‘”My son is slow” A rustling sound of dresses came from outside. Zhenxi and Tuoba Rui hurriedly turned around. The one who entered was De Fei, who was like a fairy in chimera clothes. De Fei was still unhurried and unhurried. She did not know if she had predicted such a situation or if she was completely fearless. She walked to Zhenxi’s cloud bed in three or two steps, as if she was floating like an immortal. “Prince Tuoba, what are you doing? The boudoir is an important place for women. The prince dares to barge into Zhenxi’s boudoir so openly with ill intentions. Even if he sues the emperor, the prince is in the wrong. The prince might as well leave this place early, so this palace can rest easy.”
Tuoba Rui had always thought so. Zhen Xi did not have any intention of harming him at all. It was just that Concubine De interfered with her. She couldn’t help but be slightly disdainful of Concubine De. “Your Highness is too serious. I’m just here to see Princess Zhen Xi.”
“See?” Imperial Concubine De was furious and worried. While taking care of Zhenxi’s messy clothes, she said, “This way of looking at people is indeed something only barbarians have. This dynasty does not have such a rude way of seeing guests.”
When Zhen Xi saw Concubine De coming over, her entire body was like a loose hibiscus. Xiangjiao Yunen’s body could no longer hold herself back and fell onto the beard. Xiuyan Yan’s face was also gloomy. “Mother Concubine, save me. I won’t go kiss her. Mother Concubine …”
When he cried, he revealed an even more exquisite and attractive figure. Tuoba Rui looked at it intentionally or unintentionally, then cupped his hands and said, “This foreign minister has left. Today, this foreign minister is reckless. However, Princess Zhenxi is the treasure of this foreign minister. Sooner or later, it will only be a matter of time!” After saying that, Zhenxi whisked her sleeves away and waited until Tuoba Rui’s figure completely disappeared. Only then did she start crying, almost moving the roof tiles.
“Where is the Prince? Did Concubine see him or not?” Linglong was staring blankly at a Yu Ying flower in early spring. Qin’er came to report. Linglong knew that he had come to the Three Treasures Hall without any trouble, so she nodded and said, “Why not? Use the best refreshments to entertain him. This palace will be able to go outside.”
Linglong took care of it a little and moved her lotus step to the outside. The inside of the outer hall was chilly and Linglong wrapped her clothes tightly.
“The prince has come from afar. It’s my fault that he has failed to welcome him from afar.” Linglong’s pair of translucent and sparkling eyes did not leave Tuoba Rui’s side. After looking at it, she smiled and said, “The Prince is in a bad mood. Drink a mouthful of water. This palace knows that the Prince has something to ask for.”
Tuoba Rui’s eyebrows curved like willows, Shocked, It was a little embarrassing for someone to expose his own thoughts. After three or two mouthfuls of beef, she looked at Linglong and said, “Jieyu, I just came from Zhenxi. Because I ate two mouthfuls of wine, I despised Zhenxi. Zhenxi actually used the plum blossom hairpin to chase me out. Even Concubine De shouted loudly, making me lose face.”
Unexpectedly, Linglong smiled charmingly and looked at Tuoba Rui. After Tuoba Rui finished speaking, Linglong covered her lips with her slender hands. “Is the Prince finished?”
Tuoba Rui did not find it funny, but his heart was hard to calm down. He said, “Even the Empress is mocking the foreign ministers?”
Linglong gently picked up her teacup and said, “I just ate tea. Do you know what kind of tea I ate?” Tuoba Rui didn’t know what he was eating, so he nodded his head and looked at the lid bowl. “The fragrance is faint. I guess it’s either Xue Dinghan Cui or Fairy Lin Bo, but is that so?”
Linglong’s voice was pleasant to hear, “It seems that the prince has not tasted the tea, “The most valuable thing is not to drink it all in one gulp, but to peck it in one gulp. Now the Prince understands what this palace means. This palace wants to tell the Prince a truth. Since ancient times, haste makes waste. If the Prince pursues pleasure blindly, he will naturally ignore the feelings of others. This is what happened today.” A few words sounded like the sound of nature. After saying that, Linglong looked at Tuoba Rui calmly and asked coldly, “The Prince isn’t just being slight, he might have a deeper meaning, but is he?”
After a long time, Tuoba Rui’s face turned purple and he said, “Your Highness saw it. This outer court official was just a little tempted. However, this outer court official was unable to control himself, so he couldn’t help but feel regretful afterwards.”
‘”So the great man did not remonstrate. He did not blame the past. Even the sages said the same thing, not to mention us mortals. There are many ways for the prince to think of a good thing. But the prince’s path is the most important. Does the prince understand what this palace means?” Tuoba Rui was confused when he heard this, and for a moment, he felt as if he was still at a loss for words.
Linglong slowly stood up and walked closer to Tuoba Rui. Then, she sighed faintly and said, “Didn’t the Prince just want to make peace with Princess Zhenxi to be beautiful and compete with her?”
Tuoba Rui nodded his head repeatedly. Linglong’s tall, watery fingers trembled slightly and said sternly, “But will the Prince be happy with the new and tired of the old in the future? Will he abandon Qin Twilight Chu forever? If the Prince does not know all of this, then this palace may be able to help the Prince a little–“
