Chapter 1112 They are both her brothers, but why are they so different? (111)
A few drops even splashed onto Concubine Qi's plain skirt, leaving a few dark stains.
Princess Qingyang was completely unaware of this. She hugged her knees with her arms and buried her face in them. Her thin back rose and fell violently, as if she wanted to completely shut herself up.
Concubine Qi stood quietly there, looking at the mess on the ground and Princess Qingyang who was like a frightened bird.
Her face still had a gentle expression of concern, and she didn't even look down at the stain on her skirt, but she already understood in her heart.
It must be a shameful thing that could make a lively princess lose her composure to this extent!
It was far more serious than what she had previously guessed, that she had offended Concubine Chen.
very good!
Princess Qingyang's knife is sharper and more deadly than she imagined!
What she needs to do now is not to use Princess Qingyang rashly, but to wait patiently for the most appropriate time to let the knife unsheathe itself and kill the enemy with one blow!
"Princess Qingyang..."
Concubine Qi's voice sounded at the right time, full of apology.
She took a step forward, but did not touch the curled up Princess Qingyang. She just said in a tone of great self-blame and worry: "It's my fault! I said too much."
"Don't be afraid, Princess. I won't mention it again!"
"If you don't want to talk about it, then never think about it again! Those things are in the past."
"The prince is just worried about the princess. You need to remember his thoughts, take good care of yourself, and wait for the clouds to clear and the moon to shine."
It was unknown how much time had passed before Princess Qingyang said viciously, "...It was that lowly Concubine Chen! She seduced the master and brought disaster upon him!"
"If she hadn't spread rumors in front of my brother, why would I have ended up like this?!"
"Who the hell is she! She was just a concubine's daughter of a minor official of the sixth rank. How dare she step on my head?!"
"Do you think my brother is worthy of scolding me in public for her?!"
As if she had finally found someone to confide in, Princess Qingyang became more and more excited as she spoke, tears of humiliation welling up in her eyes: "She confined me to my house until I get married... She is crushing my reputation under her feet!"
"I wish I could...I wish I could eat his flesh alive!"
Concubine Qi watched Princess Qingyang vent quietly, her face still showing that gentle and listening expression, but a glimmer of satisfaction flashed in the depths of her eyes.
very good!
Princess Qingyang's hatred for Concubine Chen was even stronger than she had expected!
Although the prince has decided to win over Concubine Chen, who knows if he can succeed. If not, Princess Qingyang will be the best person to deal with Concubine Chen!
Concubine Qi's voice was filled with a sigh: "I know the grievances of the princess..."
"The Imperial Concubine Chen is favored by everyone, and the six palaces have been dissatisfied for a long time. But..."
She changed the subject and lowered her voice even lower, with a hint of confiding: "Your Highness, the thunder and rain are all the grace of the Lord."
"For now, you need to be patient."
As soon as she finished speaking, Concubine Qi took a step forward, took out a palm-sized brocade bag from her sleeve, and gently placed it on the small table beside Princess Qingyang.
"This is?"
Princess Qingyang's eyes were attracted by the brocade bag, with a hint of suspicion.
Concubine Qi did not open it directly, but just tapped the brocade bag with her fingertips, and said in an extremely gentle voice: "This is what the prince asked me to bring to Her Royal Highness the Princess."
"Mynah?"
Princess Qingyang was startled and almost thought she had heard it wrong.
Everyone knew that she had offended her brother. The royal family members wanted to distance themselves from her, but the myna came to her rescue...
"Yes."
Concubine Qi met Princess Qingyang's doubtful gaze and nodded, with a sincere concern on her face: "Your Highness has always been thinking about the princess. Hearing that the princess suffered such an unexpected disaster, he was very worried."
"It's just that the prince is also under house arrest, so it's inconvenient for me to come and visit in person."
She paused, her eyes swept across the cold room, and her tone was just the right amount of pity: "The prince said that His Majesty was angry for a moment and said something harsh, and asked the Princess not to take it too seriously and hurt herself. He has always been thinking about you, his sister."
"The mansion is deserted and the servants are indifferent. The prince asked me to convey this message to you. I hope the princess will take good care of herself."
After saying this, Concubine Qi gently untied the laces of the brocade bag and took out the contents.
It is a bracelet inlaid with gems in red gold, polished to a smooth and warm finish. A circle of budding crabapple flowers is delicately inlaid on the outside of the bracelet with extremely fine gold wire.
The stamens are dotted with a few pieces of light pink jade the size of rice grains, which are elegant and restrained.
Concubine Qi gently placed the bracelet on Princess Qingyang's slightly cold palm: "The prince said that he remembered that the princess used to prefer the elegance of Haitang."
When the cold gold bracelet touched her skin, Princess Qingyang's fingers trembled violently.
She lowered her head and stared blankly at the red gold bracelet inlaid with gemstones in her palm. The fine crabapple flower pattern blurred in her tearful eyes, bringing a long-lost warmth.
Starling?
The myna who had been silent for many years in the turmoil of the succession struggle and was almost forgotten by everyone.
The half-brother whom she had never really taken seriously before.
In the darkest moment when she was trampled into the mud and abandoned by everyone, even her mother dared not say anything to avoid suspicion...
It turned out that he was silently thinking about her and sent her this gift of love that weighed more than a thousand pounds?
An indescribable bitterness and a surging warmth suddenly broke down the high wall of hatred in Princess Qingyang's heart.
She clenched the gold bracelet tightly in her hand, her knuckles turning white from the force, as if she was trying to draw some kind of power from it.
The grievances, fears, despair and overwhelming hatred that had been pent up for days found an outlet at this moment...
The hot tears finally became uncontrollable and fell down in big drops, landing on her plain white pajamas.
Princess Qingyang raised her hands to cover her face, and her thin shoulders began to tremble violently. It was no longer hysterical madness, but a collapse after being suppressed to the extreme.
And a hint of redeemed weakness.
"Myna..."
A nasal sob escaped from between her fingers, filled with incredible grievance and great emotion.
Concubine Qi stood quietly by, watching Princess Qingyang's moved expression, then gently stroked her back which was trembling with sobs, her voice so gentle that it sounded like that of a close friend.
"Princess, don't cry..."
"It is good that you know the prince's intention. There is still a long time to go, and the clouds will clear and the moon will shine."
"No matter what situation you find yourself in, the prince will always be your brother and will protect you to the best of his ability!"
Hearing this, Princess Qingyang cried even harder.
The Emperor and the myna are both her brothers, so why is there such a big difference between them?
