chapter(1/2)
Nangong Jie finally softened and said calmly: "Tell me, what happened to them?"
Jin Lian then said: "Well, since you have asked, Jin Lian will tell you. In fact, the Emperor and the Empress... don't look like a couple at all. I think they are pretending to show it to others, especially to others."
Look."
"Humph, it doesn't look like it? What do you mean it doesn't look like it? Every morning after leaving the court, the first thing my father has to do is to rush to Ziyuan, and she greets her with a smile every day, and you still think it doesn't look like it?"
Jin Lian said angrily: "So you are stupid, my lord, you don't know at all. Although the empress treats the emperor like that in front of others, the empress never lets the emperor call her his beloved concubine once she enters the room."
"Huh, what's the point? The woman probably didn't get used to it all of a sudden. This doesn't mean anything."
Jin Lian said: "You still can't explain the problem? Humph, you never thought that the emperor has never stayed in Zizhuyuan, and the empress has only been to the Jade Dragon Palace once, and she came back very soon, and she almost had an affair with the emperor because of that incident
If we have a falling out, you don’t know any of this, so you just get angry.”
After hearing this, Nangong Jie's eyes regained some light and continued to ask: "What else do you know?"
Jin Lian hesitated again and again before saying: "Well, Jin Lian risked his life to tell you some of these things. My lord, please don't say that I told you, otherwise Jin Lian's life will be in danger."
Nangong Jie was anxious: "You should hurry up and say it, it's so long-winded!"
"Actually... Jinlian actually knows the truth, because Jinlian overheard the conversation between the emperor and the empress. They seemed to be talking about the prince..."
"Prince?"
"Oh, by the way, it seems that the emperor and the empress have some agreement. The emperor is afraid that you and the second prince will be jealous because of the empress, fight with each other, and even have no intention of making progress, so he temporarily pretends to occupy the empress, so that you can give up this idea, okay
Learn your skills.”
"Is this... is this true? But why did she never tell me?"
"This is the crux of the matter. Your Majesty promised the Emperor not to tell you this matter. Otherwise, the Emperor will really take possession of Your Majesty. Moreover, the Emperor said that when the crown prince is chosen,
That’s when the empress regains her freedom.”
Nangong Jie couldn't sit still. He never thought it would be such a reason. No wonder the woman told him over and over again that if he wanted her, he had to become stronger. It turned out that she was telling him to work hard and make progress.
Fight for the position of prince.
And he was such an idiot. He had always been so negative about using alcohol to relieve his sorrows. Fortunately, he became a monk, and he still yelled at her in front of so many people... Nangong Jie felt regretful thinking about this, and he suddenly stood up and ran away.
"Hey, sir, I haven't paid for your drink yet, sir!" Seeing Nangong Jie run away, the waiter in the restaurant grabbed Jin Lian's hand and said, "Don't run away, he ran away, you have to pay for the drink.
pay!"
"Okay, but sister doesn't have any money with her. If you want money, come with me to the palace to get it. I'll give you double the money. How about that?"
"What? The king...the palace?" The waiter was stunned for a moment. When the restaurant owner heard that he was from the palace, he ran over and said: "You idiot, get out of here. What money do you want? The prince will give it to us when he comes to drink.
Face, you ungrateful fool!"
Jin Lian pursed her lips and smiled and said: "What? You don't want the money anymore? I'm going to leave then, sisters. Let the girls go to the palace to get it. Don't worry, you will definitely get it."
"No, no, no, little sister, go back and tell the prince that you can come and drink whenever you want. We will save the best and mellowest daughter's red for him."
"Haha, assuming you know how to be a good person, okay, I know, sister, don't worry."
Nangong Jie ran all the way from the restaurant and anxiously entered the palace. He was looking for it, but he couldn't find Duoduo. He was so anxious that he shouted: "Someone is coming, someone is coming quickly!"
"What's the matter, Your Majesty?" A maid came in and asked.
"Where's the lady? Where has she gone?"
"Madam?" The maid was stunned for a long time before she realized that the lady he meant was the housekeeper, so she said: "Madam is not back. I haven't seen her for many days. We all miss her, and Bin'er.
Master."
"She...didn't she come back today? But why did the palace maid say she had come back?"
"Your Majesty, my wife really hasn't come back. If you don't believe me, just ask Laifu and the others."
Nangong Jie felt depressed for a while, and thought to himself, "Could it be that the palace maid has something up her sleeve? Otherwise, why would she lie to him?"
Just as he was thinking about it, Nangong Jie noticed that girl Jin Lian came in with Bin'er from outside, and quickly asked: "Didn't you say that she is in my house? Why is there no one there?"
"It's impossible. Your Majesty is obviously back. It's just that you didn't bother to look for it. I think you should look for it quickly. If you let Your Majesty wait until you are disheartened, it will be useless even if you find it."
When Nangong Jie heard that Jin Lian said it so seriously that it didn't sound like he was lying, he gritted his teeth and turned around to go back and look for it again.
Just when Nangong Jie ran into the living room, Duoduo ran in from outside the door and quickly slipped into the backyard... When Bin'er saw her mother running in, she called out: "Godfather, mother usually likes her very much."
Have you found the person who went to the Octagon Tower?"
"Yes, yes, the Octagonal Tower!" Nangong Jie almost forgot that there was such a place. He quickly ran into the backyard and climbed up to the Octagonal Tower as quickly as possible.
Sure enough, on the top floor of the octagonal building, I found the woman sitting on the railing.
"Wife..." Nangong Jie was excited, ran over and hugged her: "I'm sorry, wife, I was wrong. I should have understood your good intentions, but I was blinded by the illusion.
You have been wronged..."
"Hmph, do you also know that I have been wronged?" Duoduo originally wanted to tease the fool, but he didn't expect that as soon as he apologized, all the grievances that could have been tolerated suddenly came to him, and his nose dropped with a sore look.
Tears come.
"Honey, I'm sorry. It's my childishness. It's all my fault. I didn't understand your hard work. You hit me and scolded me. Come on, pull my ears."
"Alas...it's too late..." Duoduo sighed: "I had known this, why did I do it in the first place? Forget it, let's stop here. My heart is already dead. I will have nothing to do with the Fifth Prince from now on, so we can get together.
Go on, forget about me, just think of me as a housekeeper who once stayed here."
"What did you say? You stupid woman, you came to scare me again." How could Nangong Jie believe what she said? He hugged him tighter and said, "I know you won't. Even if the whole world can be discarded, you
You won’t lose me, right?”
"You are wrong, my lord. If you don't understand women, don't be self-righteous. Just because you have been good to you once does not mean that you will be good to you forever. If you hurt her, hurt her, and are tired, a woman will choose to forget."
"Hey, why is it so serious? I haven't done anything extremely sinful, let alone sleeping with women behind your back? How can you put such a big sin on me? It's not fair!"
"Fair? Is it fair to me? No matter how hard or tired I am, I can persist for us, but what about you? What did you say you did?"
Nangong Jie said without confidence: "I... didn't do anything. I was just disappointed for a while, so I just went to the City God's Temple."
"That's it? Do you know how disgusting it is for a man to become a monk? It's even more disgusting than those guys who play with women outside! Those men who go around and play with women will at least return to their own homes, and in their hearts
You still have a wife and children, but what about you? If you become a monk at any time, that is the evil act of abandoning your wife and children!"
"Abandoning wife and children? But I don't have a wife and children-"
Nangong Jie was quick to speak for a while, but when he realized that he had said the wrong thing, he found that the woman's face turned pale with anger at his words.
"Honey, I mean..." Nangong Jie tried his best to save what he had said wrongly, but unfortunately the woman didn't give him a chance.
Duoduo turned around and walked downstairs. No matter how much Nangong Jie tried to apologize, he just wouldn't listen.
"Sister..." Jin Lian and Bin'er stood at the bottom of the Octagon Building. They thought they would see the happy scene of the two walking down hand in hand, but they didn't expect that the master came down with a dark face.
He was so angry that he grabbed Nangong Jie and said: "Your Majesty! What did you do? I was so kind to help you, and you made my sister so angry. If I had known, I wouldn't have put so much effort into helping you. You are such a bastard.
Disappointing bastard!"
"Oh...this..." Nangong Jie slapped himself on the mouth and said, "It's all my fault for being a bitch and making her angry. You...help me!"
Jin Lian said: "My lord, you are too much. You have done something wrong and you still want others to help you? Are you sincere? Chase after you, you are really stupid!"
"Oh..." Nangong Jie didn't dare to feel the slightest bit unhappy about being yelled at by a palace maid, just because she was hers.
"Godfather, keep working hard, mother will definitely forgive you." Bin'er shouted, waving her little hands.
Nangong Jie didn't dare to hesitate, and strode towards Duoduo... Duoduo was really angry, and ran straight back to his room and started packing his things.
Nangong Jie ran in, grabbed her hand and said, "Don't be so angry, I-"
"I'm not angry. Why am I angry? Who am I? Why should I be angry with the prince?"
As Duoduo talked, he was sorting out his things. Only then did he realize that he actually had so many things.
"Wife...I was wrong..."
"You're right, don't you have a wife and children? Don't call me wife, I can't afford it."
"Stop making trouble, okay?" Nangong Jie hugged Duoduo and said, "You clearly know that I am unintentional, why are you angry? It's so difficult for two people to be together, can't they just get along well? Since
If you still like me and can’t let me go, then don’t lose your temper.”
"You are wrong, I don't like you anymore, I am very willing to let you go, let me go!" Duoduo broke away from Nangong Jie's arms with force.
"You lied. Do you think I'm stupid? You asked Lian'er to find me, right? Since you don't like me and have no nostalgia for me, why do you want to go back to Prince Jie's Mansion? You are simply lying to yourself.
I can’t get over it.”
"Huh, don't be emotional. This is the last time I'm coming back. After all, I've been here for such a long time, so I came back for one last look and took away all the gold and silver treasures my eldest brother gave me."
Nangong Jie suddenly knelt down with a pop, hugged her thigh tightly, and whispered: "Don't do this to me, please..."
Duoduo said: "Get up! There is gold at the knees of a man, but you only kneel to your parents and not the poor. Are you still not a man? You actually kneel down for an unrelated woman? You are really unfilial!"
"If I don't get up...it doesn't matter if people all over the world laugh at me, as long as you stay..."
"Let me go!" Duoduo kicked Nangong Jie away with a strong kick.
Nangong Jie, on the other hand, tilted his body, fainted and fell to the ground, motionless.
"Hey, don't think that pretending to be pitiful will make me stay. It's so boring!" After Duoduo finished speaking, he continued to pack Bin'er's things.
