The princess is dying soon [Rebirth]

Rou Xing looked at the invitation card for the [-]th birthday banquet of the old concubine of Changxin Palace that had just been delivered, and sighed, and couldn't help but start to worry.

If it was normal, she would have handed it over happily. After all, the old concubine is also the princess's great-uncle and grandmother of Lord Zhao Xiaohou. She has always loved the princess very much, and the princess also respects the princess very much.

But now, the Princess, she doesn't even want to see that little Marquis Zhao. If she reads this and thinks of Marquis Zhao again, she will definitely be unhappy.

"Rou Xing, I said what are you doing standing outside by yourself?" Seeing that she was suddenly not around, Rong Chengjin pushed the window and poked his head out to raise his voice.

Rou Xing's heart skipped a beat, she turned around, and quickly hid the invitation behind her back, "I'll come in right away."

Rong Chengjin could see her small movements clearly, "What are you holding? Show me."

Rou Xing was taken aback, and simply pretended to be stupid, "Ah? It's nothing, Princess, do you want some snacks? I'll let the little girl go to the kitchen to order."

Rong Chengjin was speechless, just leaning against the window and looking straight at her.

Under Rong Chengjin's aggressive eyes, Rou Xing still didn't survive for three seconds, and decisively surrendered.

"Here, it's just an invitation from Changxin Palace. If you don't want to go, just let me know."

Anyway, most of the banquets in the past were postponed by the princess on the grounds of poor health.

"I have all the gifts ready, why don't I go?" Rong Chengjin smiled and said, "The old concubine has always loved me, and besides, is it true that I will never see my cousin and the others in my life?"

After finishing speaking, Rong Chengjin couldn't help stretching out his hand to touch his face again, "Not only do I have to go, but I also have to dress up a bit, there is no grass anywhere in the world, come to think of it, I used to regard my cousin as the best in the world, It's also because a leaf can't see Mount Tai."

Although these words were made in jest, there was indeed some sincerity in them. She passed by, but she was seen less often.

"Ah! What did you say?" Rou Xing looked at her, her expression full of disbelief.

Seeing her goose-like expression, Rong Chengjin couldn't help but chuckle: "Silly girl, I was just kidding with you."

She doesn't want to marry anymore in her life, and she doesn't have a few years to live anyway, so why marry into someone else's house to serve her aunt, husband and child?

However, Rou Xing suddenly became serious, she imitated those nuns in the palace, and said old-fashionedly: "Princess, this life-long event should not be joked around."

Rong Chengjin sighed: "If you can't talk casually in your own residence, then this life is too boring."

Hearing this, Rou Xing couldn't help but pause, yes, the princess is the most pampered baby in Prince Rui's mansion, why bother to be restrained so much, besides...

Thinking of the princess's unhealthy body, she couldn't help but sighed deeply again.

The birthday of the old concubine of Changxin Palace was a rare sunny day.

The bright red sun slowly passed through the clouds and shrouded Rong Chengjin in scarlet clothes, as if adding a layer of holy light to her.

In fact, Rong Chengjin seldom wore such bright colors in the past. She has a gentle temperament and is not in good health. The light colors naturally suit her better.

Now, her mood is different. She has a bit of desire to try these colors that she didn't dare to try in the past. Anyway, she won't live long, so it's better to try them all in the limited time.

Rui Wangfei Cui saw that she was less sick, but more lively, and smiled: "Ah Jin is so beautiful today."

Rong Chengjin lowered his head slightly, smiled humbly and said, "Prince Wang has won the award."

Although Cui Shi has been married for five or six years, the two of them are still alienated from each other, not bad, but not bad at all.

After finishing speaking, when they were about to go up the steps, Mrs. Cui seemed to remember something, turned her head and glanced at Rong Chengxuan behind her, and said, "What are you doing so late? Follow your sister carefully."

Rong Chengxuan, who doesn't like going out to socialize very much, was taken aback for a moment, then nodded timidly, "Yes."

Hearing this, Rong Chengjin frowned, and turned to look at Rong Chengxuan's timid appearance.

"Ah Xuan is at an acceptable age, she is no longer a child, the princess is at ease."

Hearing these words, Rong Chengxuan's whole body also instantly dimmed, and Rong Chengjin just glanced at her indifferently, and went up the steps.

After entering the mansion, seeing the old concubine, Rong Chengjin smiled and was about to salute, but before her knees were bent, she was pulled up by the old concubine.

The old concubine took her hand lovingly, and asked with concern: "Is your health better?"

Rong Chengjin pursed his lips and said with a smile: "If you go back to the concubine, after resting for these days, there is no serious problem."

After finishing speaking, she took the brocade box from Rou Xing behind her, and handed it to the old concubine, "I hope the concubine will not dislike it."

The old concubine opened the brocade box, only to find a picture scroll inside.

She had guessed that this was a painting by a famous artist that Jin'er had found somewhere, but when she unfolded it and looked carefully, she realized that she had misunderstood it.

"This is?" This painting is really good, but she couldn't recognize who wrote it.

Rong Chengjin said: "This is the Longevity Picture drawn by Jin'er himself."

Hearing this, everyone was a little surprised.

Everyone knows that Princess Yun'an of Prince Rui's Mansion has been ill for a long time and is weak, but Wanshoutu is so painstaking. It seems that this princess really cares about the concubine.

The old concubine carefully handed over the scroll to the nanny behind her, and looked at Rong Chengjin's eyes with a little more affection, "You girl, don't be so troublesome in the future, this gift, give it to me." It doesn’t matter what, as long as it’s on your mind.”

Rong Chengjin said delicately: "If it is still the same as in previous years, I always feel that it will not be enough to express my admiration for the concubine, so after thinking about it, I started fighting." With such an idea, Concubine... do you think I can't draw well?"

The old concubine liked her more and more when she saw her rare act of acting like a baby. She took her hand and sat down together to talk.

Everyone looked at Rong Chengjin, although she was still pale and thin, but she had a calm demeanor and a well-regulated appearance, and they were a little impressed by her.

Naturally, Rong Chengjin was still the same Rong Chengjin, but after dying once, she found that death was not so painful, so she was less inferior and caring about her illness, and on the contrary, she was more bright and cheerful. The atmosphere is more and more like a royal princess.

Zhao Xiyang looked at her smiling sweetly from a distance, hesitating, and wanted to go up and say something to her, but he was a little scared, afraid that she would still be like last time and didn't want to see him again.

He is a timid person. In the past, he was able to be tender and affectionate with his cousin because he was sure that his cousin's heart was in him, but now, he is not sure.

He wondered a little, what if his cousin really detested him?How should he deal with himself in the future?

Alas, emotional matters are really worrying!

Looking at her brother's dejected look from a distance, Zhao Wanyue, who was talking to her best friend, sighed, and hurriedly ran to him quietly, tugged at his sleeve and said, "Brother, what are you doing?" Woolen cloth?"

Zhao Xiyang was taken aback by her sudden movement, and he blamed: "You're such a big girl, why is she still bluffing all day long, what does she look like?"

Regarding his lecture, Zhao Wanyue's left ear went into her right ear, she looked at Rong Chengjin who was talking to her grandmother, and couldn't help putting on a smile on her face again: "Brother, I say you, you should be more courageous If I were Cousin Jin, I would be mad at you too. Now that Cousin Jin is right in front of you, you finally saw her again. Hurry up and talk to her! "

Hearing this, Zhao Xiyang was also a little moved, but just as he took a step, he remembered something again, and immediately retracted his feet hesitantly, "But, grandma is still there."

Seeing him like this, Zhao Wanyue was both angry and helpless. He gritted his teeth and said, "Oh, how old is grandma and how many times she has seen in the world, so she still doesn't understand your little thoughts? Qing, and grandma likes cousin so much, and likes you so much, if you pass, she will be too happy! For cousin, you should show a little bit of manliness! Do you still want to be in this state with cousin forever? "

Don't be in a hurry, she, a matchmaker, is still in a hurry!

The two were muttering here, but at this moment, there were bursts of announcements from outside.

Everyone looked at it one after another, and they were really taken aback for a moment, the old concubine really had a great face, even the emperor and empress came here in person.

Rong Chengjin, who was still chatting with his uncle and grandma, had memories from his previous life. Seeing the most noble person in the world suddenly visit, he didn't feel too alarmed. He just helped the old concubine stand up from her seat, Everyone knelt down and saluted together.

Although the empress is actually not a few years younger than Rong Chengjin's father, King Rui, she is of the same generation as her, her cousin and sister-in-law, but because of the teenage age difference, the relationship between them It always seems like a generation has passed, when I look at Rong Chengjin, it's not like looking at my sister, but more like looking at my daughter.

After everyone was flattened, Rong Chengjin looked at the flattered look of the old concubine, and quickly and cleverly returned to her seat, sitting next to the princess and Rong Chengxuan.

Such a pair of uninvited guests came suddenly, and if they wanted to come to this meal, they were destined to be unable to eat it casually.

The atmosphere was so tense, Rong Chengjin looked at the stiff faces of the crowd, he didn't care to watch the dance, and he didn't care to listen to the wonderful sound of silk and bamboo. He just sat there with his head down and ate, occasionally returning a few sentences Questions from those people.

She originally wanted to be so oblivious to everyone, but she didn't expect that there was someone here who was still paying attention to her.

Zhao Xiyang sipped his wine, and the table was full of exquisite dishes, but he was tasteless. What his cousin said before made him sad and sad, and he really felt that he and his cousin were completely finished.

He thought about just being a pair of ordinary cousins ​​with his cousin. He thought it could be done, but when he saw his cousin again, he realized that this was something he would never be able to do.

He didn't want to, he didn't want to just be her elder brother, and always have a vague distance from her, and finally he would be with Cousin Ye and the others and send her off to marry with a smile.

As long as he thought of such a scene, his heart ached so much that he wanted to die like this.

In the past, he had always understood his mother's dislike for his cousin. He even secretly complained that it would be great if his cousin was in good health. He also knew that there are many girls who are better than her cousin in this world, but he I just like this flawed girl.

No one but her...

What Wanyue said just now has been replaying in his mind constantly. He has been stuck between his mother and cousin for half his life. Does he really want to continue like this?

He can't do that.

……

After a group of dancers retreated, the people behind were about to come up, but at this moment, a clear voice suddenly sounded, breaking the temporary silence.

"Your Majesty, Queen..."

Hearing this, everyone looked at Zhao Xiyang who had stood up at some point.

He seemed to be a little drunk, blushing, regardless of the obstruction of the pale-faced Nanping Princess, he forced his way out of the banquet, and knelt down towards the emperor.

Seeing his inexplicable actions, the Empress couldn't help frowning for a while, just looked at him and waited for him to continue.

Seeing Zhao Xiyang's sudden fuss, Rong Chengjin didn't understand anything. Thinking of what he was about to say, she took a tight breath and almost passed out.

This man!Did he want to piss her off? !

And Zhao Xiyang knelt on the ground, buried his head, his heart was pounding, the sound seemed to drown out everything in the world.

He closed his eyes, thinking about his cousin's low eyebrows and smiling, and thinking about the big marriage he had fantasized about for many years, and then he showed the greatest courage in his life and said loudly: "Your Majesty dares to ask your Majesty for a favor." Grace, I beg... Your Majesty please marry me and my cousin!"

Speaking of the long-cherished wish in his heart for many years, Zhao Xiyang suddenly felt light all over.

right!That's it, His Majesty personally bestowed the marriage, even if it was his mother, there should be nothing to say.

It was only then that he realized that marrying his cousin was the only wish in his life, and even his biological mother would never be able to shake it.

Seeing that he did such a thing for that goddamn sick child, Princess Nanping slammed the table, almost wanting to vomit blood on the spot. If the empress hadn't been present, she would have already put the plate in front of her. All the dishes fell on him.

Zhao Wanyue, who was on the side, saw that her brother was persuaded by her, and finally became bold for a while, and she was very happy in her heart, thinking that she had really accomplished a great thing!If it wasn't for the occasion, she probably wanted to call out for her brother.

In the whole banquet, the only person who was completely opposite to Zhao Wanyue's excitement was Rong Chengxuan. She saw that the person she had secretly cared about for so many years was actually excited for her useless sister. Having the courage to kneel down and ask for a marriage order, her heart was broken piece by piece...

Holding the wine glass, hatred secretly grew in her heart. How is she worse than Rong Chengjin?They have the same identity, she is also his cousin, and her appearance is not inferior to Rong Chengjin's, and her talent is not inferior to Rong Chengjin's...

Even, her body is much healthier than Rong Chengjin, who was dying of illness!But why?Why is it that Rong Chengjin is always the only one in Cousin Xiyang's heart? !She is really unwilling, obviously, she has followed this person for so long, obviously, she has always been the one who loves more...

Her eye sockets suddenly turned red.

……

Rong Chengjin was unaware of other people's various reactions, she just looked at her cousin blankly, she originally thought that she would panic and lose her temper at this time, but when she really heard her cousin seriously When she said those words, her heart was very calm, calm and sad.

This cowardly person who has been cowardly all his life, finally has the courage and determination of a martyr who cuts his wrists, and is able to charge forward for her. Unfortunately, she is no longer rare.

Regarding the marriage between the two of them, the old concubine was happy to see it come to fruition. She said to the empress with a smile: "Your Majesty, Your Highness, I also watched these two children grow up. They are childhood sweethearts and have a strong relationship. Today is my birthday, why don't you take advantage of this opportunity to be more happy?"

And the queen looked at Zhao Xiyang, who was still kneeling at the bottom, whose ears were turning red, and also pursed her lips into a smile, thinking that this little cousin was very handsome in life, and his temperament was really cute.

What's more, she always loved Rong Chengjin very much. Now that she saw such a situation, she really wanted to make a decision for them, so she pulled the emperor and began to bite his ear.

Everyone sat down, naturally they couldn't hear and didn't dare to listen to what they said. Anyway, the emperor kept nodding his head.

After biting his ear, the emperor glanced at Zhao Xiyang, who was kneeling down, and then at Rong Chengjin, who was looking calm, with a lot of thoughts in his heart.

These two people have indeed reached the age of talking about marriage. The reason has not been settled before, and everyone knows it well. Even if they are emperors and queens, it is not easy to interfere with others if they don't have the leisure Household matters, and now, the young couple are having a fight, and for the sake of the old concubine, it's not a bad idea to be a favor.

"Uncle Huang, what do you think of this marriage?" the emperor looked at King Rui and asked.

King Rui glanced at his daughter whose face was becoming more and more ugly, and after thinking for a while, he stood up and replied respectfully: "It's a great honor for the minister's family to bestow the marriage, but the little girl has always been spoiled by the minister. But it still depends on her mind, I can't make the decision at all."

The queen burst out laughing when she heard the words, "I have heard that the emperor is a slave to a daughter, but now it seems that the rumors are true. If so, then let others speak for themselves!"

After finishing speaking, the queen looked straight at Rong Chengjin, and said in a slightly teasing tone: "Little cousin of Uncle Rui's family, what do you think about this marriage?"
