Cheng Jiaxuan was very excited; he called out in alarm, "You … you woke up?" Xuan Shuang coldly snorted and said, "Why are you so surprised? Don't tell me you didn't want me to wake up? Did you want me to stay unconscious until I die? "
Only then did Cheng Jiaxuan realize that his voice just now sounded more surprised than happy; he laughed awkwardly and hastily said, "Of course not, when did you wake up? Just now His Majesty and Noble Consort Yun came to see you, did you know? You were unconscious the whole time. But they just left and you woke up; it's really unfortunate. "Xuan Shuang said," Of course I know. But I didn't want to see them, I had nothing to say to them, so I pretended to be asleep. "
Cheng Jiaxuan was startled; he thought that perhaps because he had not recovered from his serious injury, he did not have the strength to talk and was unwilling to talk to other people. Hastily he said, "Then you have nothing to say to me, I'll leave first. Have a good rest. "
Xuan Shuang had just woken up, but he was so angry that he almost fainted again. He pushed himself up on the mattress behind him and 'bang' lightly punched Cheng Jiaxuan's forehead. "Xiao Xuan," he said, "Are you really an idiot? If I had nothing to say to you, why would I bother talking to you right now? "
Cheng Jiaxuan jumped in fright; hastily he pressed Xuan Shuang's shoulders with both hands and pushed him back to the bed. "Lie down quickly!" He said, "You are seriously injured, your condition will worsen later, don't talk or move carelessly!" Xuan Shuang did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Xiao Xuan," he said, "Don't you know that if other people see us in this position, it will easily cause a misunderstanding?"
Cheng Jiaxuan was anxious; only when he heard what Xuan Shuang said did he notice that the two of them were indeed neither fish nor fowl. As a woman, she ought to be reserved; only a prostitute in a brothel would be able to do this kind of thing. Immediately her face blushed, she cried out in alarm and quickly let go of his body. She did not know whether she should stand or walk away, so she simply sat down on the bed and turned her head to the side. Her ears were burning hot, she did not dare to look at him in the eye.
Xuan Shuang laughed coldly and sighed, "I only suffered a minor injury on my foot, yet you are so nervous that you want to die, as if I am going to die the next moment. How can you be so exaggerated? I don't know whether you are underestimating me or you care about me? Forget it, forget it, I don't. "
Speaking, I don't worry, I don't have a conscience, I don't want you to hear me apologize to you, that's it, I don't you. "Jiaxuan" I die. "I said said, he," That's, it it it it, it it, I, you, I, I, I, it, "" I "" "I"
Xuan Shuang already knew the answer, but he still asked, "The one who injured me is the Seven Malevolent Demons, why do I need you to apologize? '' He was very clear about Cheng Jiaxuan's' 'intention, but right now he wanted to hear it from her mouth, so that he could break his heart and strengthen his resolve. This was tantamount to tearing his wound open.
Sure enough, Cheng Jiaxuan replied, "Because … because I am his person. In front of outsiders, I am him, and he is me. No matter what the other party did, we should share the responsibility. Now he injured you, but he won't apologize to you. I also don't want to blame him. I can only admit that it was my fault, and then I'll apologize to you on his behalf. I hope you can forgive me, and don't hold this grudge. Only then can we hope to resolve the matter. "Seeing Xuan Shuang's' 'expression did not soften in the slightest, she anxiously said," If you want to hate, then hate me! Just slap me a dozen, twenty something slaps on the face. If that's still not enough … I can kneel down and beg you … "As she said that, her small mouth flattened, and several big round teardrops flowed down from the corners of her eyes. Because her eyebrows were lowered, the tears streaked across the bridge of her delicate nose.
Xuan Shuang cursed inwardly. He thought he was mature enough, that he could not compare to many of his elders, but toward Cheng Jiaxuan, he still could not harden his heart. Grabbing her wrist, he said, "Don't kneel! You should know that he has always been proud and arrogant, he won't lower his head to anybody. If he knew that you kneeled down and kowtowed to somebody, saying that you were representing him, not only he won't thank you, I think he might even ask you to pay with your life. Why bother? "As he said that, he sighed softly and muttered to himself," You don't care even if you get slapped? You can easily state your conditions in exchange, are you used to it? But I'm not him, you won't be so willing … I won't be so cruel. " Suddenly a thought flashed through his mind. Because of this last sentence, he had a new thought, "Is it because I'm not cruel enough that I've caused this big trouble? After all, in this world, a hero's end is the end of the road, an ambitious and ruthless person's world. "
With tearful eyes, Cheng Jiaxuan said, "I'm sorry, I … I know you treat me very well. Other than you, there's no one else … "Xuan Shuang impatiently waved his hand and said," Don't talk about it. In any case, whether I treat you well or badly, it's nothing more than throwing meat buns at a dog. I don't want to talk about this with you right now. Ay, let me ask you, what do you think of my Empress? "
Cheng Jiaxuan wiped his tears with the back of his hand and said, "Noble Consort Yun, Niangniang, she … she's very good. Astute and promising, beautiful and dignified. Although she's already a married woman, she's still as elegant as ever. I … I have great respect for her. "
Xuan Shuang coldly humphed and said, "You don't need to be so hypocritical. If you don't like her, just say it. I hate it when people lie to me."
Cheng Jiaxuan had never had any particular love or hatred toward Shen Shiyun. It was just that every time he saw Jiang Liechen treating her better than him, he would feel a burst of jealousy and unhappiness in his heart. At this time, he heard Xuan Shuang's question. He knew it was inappropriate to talk about his mother in front of her son, but ever since he was a child, no matter what secrets he told him, he always kept his mouth shut. Therefore, deep in his heart, he had developed a kind of trust. Thinking about it, it did not seem like Noble Consort Yun was trying to sound him out. Thereupon, with a red face, he told the truth.
Xuan Shuang was even more displeased. He said, "I'm talking business with you, yet every three sentences you talk about that devil. Damn it! Let me tell you, in the future I'm going to leave her behind and work alone. I won't be her puppet anymore. Humph! Why should I? "
Cheng Jiaxuan was shocked. Looking at Xuan Shuang's expression, his heart was full of resentment and indignation. Cautiously and cautiously he asked, "Niangniang, she … what did she do? It's very common for mother and son to quarrel … "
Xuan Shuang coldly snorted and said, "I'm not a child anymore. I won't quarrel for no reason! You self-righteous people, remember this clearly! " Seeing Cheng Jiaxuan panicked and repeatedly assented, he felt that he had shown off enough power and prestige. Only then did he say, "In the past, I respected her as my niang, so I never thought too deeply about many things. I always listened to whatever she said. But now that it's on the table, I understand that there are many things she's done badly. She still wants to discipline me? Is she worthy of that? Let's put it this way. Although I hate the Seven Malevolent Demons to death, he was right about one thing. Niang's current status is completely dependent on Huang Ama's favor. This is the weight she uses to gain a foothold and win. Other than showing off her beauty, what else can she do? Normally, she doesn't care about Huang Ama. Now that her power is threatened, she wants to turn around and ask for help? She can only rely on other people to support her? In front of me, she's using every kind of charm. Listening to those mushy words of love made me almost break out in cold sweat. I already gave her enough face by not spitting it out on the spot! What about making a cup of Tie Guanyin every night to wait for His Majesty? I live in the Snow Song Palace, how could I not know? She hasn't even taken out a teacup. All day long, she's thinking about how to deal with the Devil Sect. To put it bluntly, as an imperial consort, she thinks about another man day and night. When she's in front of His Majesty, she pretends to be gentle and virtuous. She changes back and forth so quickly! What kind of person does she think Huang Ama is? Is she still a monarch? Is she still a husband? I think it's more appropriate to call her a tool. Unfortunately, I reincarnated into the wrong body and became her son. Even if I'm noble as a prince, I still feel ashamed. "
Cheng Jiaxuan advised, "Perhaps there's some misunderstanding. Besides, Noble Consort Yun's strength is obvious to all in the palace. It's an exaggeration to say that she's a 'flower vase' who only knows how to rely on men. She's definitely very resourceful. "
Xuan Shuang said disdainfully, "What resourcefulness? Even if there is, it's all treachery and conspiracy! In her eyes, which one of us isn't a chess piece? I heard six, seven years ago, I wasn't even born yet. Isn't that a long time ago? At that time, in order to lure the Devil Sect people to show up, she captured a good girl and dressed her up as Chu Menglin, parading her through the streets. How did she come up with that idea? The Seven Demons were the smart ones. No matter how much chaos she caused on the streets, he just didn't take the bait! Finally, in her anger, that woman ordered that girl to be executed by a thousand cuts, and also killed the Chen Family's Master who came to complain. She was afraid that their family would file a grievance and make a big deal out of it, so she used the Devil Sect's name to kill the whole family. In those days, that family was still considered small and had some influence in the capital. In one night, blood flowed everywhere, not a single one was left alive. It was indeed a sin. "
"Biajie!" Cheng Jiaxuan blurted out, recalling the tragedy that befell the Chen Mansion when she was young. At that time, she was still young, mostly it was her brother and uncle who ran around everywhere, but she had heard a little about her cousin being wrongly imprisoned. No wonder she found it familiar.
"What did you say?" the Xuan Shuang asked curiously. Cheng Jiaxuan suppressed the excitement in her heart. She was the Chen Family's Miss Biajie, and later she became the orphan of the Chen Mansion. Her identity was too important, so she couldn't easily tell anyone. She simply asked, "Has Niangniang … done a lot of similar things?"
The Xuan Shuang was very dissatisfied with her fussing over nothing. "Who knows?" She said, "But I don't think she's that stupid. It's enough to play this trick once. After playing it many times, who would fall for it? Could it be that she knew it was a trap and still wanted to throw her life away? She also thinks that other people are too stupid. "
Cheng Jiaxuan's heart thumped loudly. She thought to herself, "These past few years I've been investigating and I've obtained a lot of information … but the Xuan Shuang must be telling the truth. It seems like the people who killed my family weren't the Sacrifice Shadow Cult, but the imperial court and the Noble Consort Yun." Thinking that she could finally love him openly and didn't have to bear the name of an unfilial daughter in front of her family, she felt a burst of relief.
The Xuan Shuang saw that she didn't want to answer, so he continued, "I only heard about that matter from hearsay, so I don't know much about it. Last time, you and I saw it together. She used this as an excuse to slip away midway. She even wanted to steal Prince Zhuang's coffin. She married into the imperial family. No matter what, Prince Zhuang is still her ancestor. This is a crime of great treason! What did she say just now? Humph, we both heard it with our own ears. It was really pleasant to hear, a hundred times better than singing. Something about protecting the ancestral mausoleum and preventing others from entering to steal treasures. Emperor Ama didn't ask her anything. That day, she said she was sick and left. She said she was going back to the inn to rest. Why did she go to Hetu Ala without any reason? Could it be that she didn't know the way? That Hu Wei didn't know either? Later on, how did she swindle the Soul Severing Tear? In front of her enemy, she still used the same honey trap? That's … that's simply shameless! The Seven Demons are also asking for it. He knew that this woman was unreliable, but he still dared to be so close to her because of her beauty? What's the difference between him and those useless men? "
