Seeing that Liu Qingqing didn't trust her, Princess Rui looked apologetic, "Sister, I'm sorry, don't be afraid. What happened before was all my fault. I came to you this time specifically to apologize to you."
"Apologise?" Liu Qingqing looked at Princess Rui in disbelief.
Princess Rui bit her lip. Although she felt extremely uncomfortable, for the sake of Prince Rui, she could only say apologetically: "Yes, sister, what happened before was because I am a stingy sister. I hope you won't argue with me."
At the end of the sentence, she smiled uncomfortably.
For Prince Rui and her children, she, who had always been aloof, had to humble herself to Liu Qingqing.
She never thought that this day would happen to her, the dignified Princess Rui.
But she must obtain Liu Qingqing's forgiveness so that Prince Rui will continue to care about her.
Seeing that Princess Rui was actually willing to apologize to herself, Liu Qingqing's eyes were full of doubts, and she said sarcastically, "You are the princess, you have the final say. How dare I argue with you if Qingqing is a concubine?"
Seeing Liu Qingqing mocking herself, Princess Rui was not angry. It was true that she had gone too far before.
She hurriedly said: "Okay, sister, if you are willing to forgive me, I will feel relieved."
As she said that, she looked at the clothes in the servant's hands and said: "Sister, you and Zixi have come to the palace for the first time. As a sister, of course I have to care about you and take care of you on behalf of the prince. Look, there are some clothes and jewelry here.
I prepared it all for you, I hope you like it."
Liu Qingqing glanced at the clothes and jewelry, and a coldness flashed in her eyes.
What gift should I give to a murderer?
It's really a weasel paying New Year's greetings to a rooster, and it's not a good intention.
She said with a cold face: "I'm sorry, Qingqingxin accepted the princess's wishes! But Qingqing doesn't lack these, please take the princess back!"
Seeing this, Princess Rui hurriedly said: "Sister, are you still angry with me? Or don't you believe me? Let me tell you the truth. In fact, I have already figured it out. Since the prince likes you, of course I should accept you.
, you should not be separated. And there is Zixi, you see he is so young and pitiful, he is also the blood of the prince, how can I bear to let him live outside? Of course I should also accept him and let her recognize her ancestor and return to the clan."
With that said, she stretched out her hand to rub Chu Zixi's little face, but Chu Zixi was so frightened that she quickly hid in Liu Qingqing's arms.
Liu Qingqing also stared at Princess Rui warily, "Princess, what do you want to do?"
Seeing Liu Qingqing's reaction, Princess Rui was stunned. Did Liu Qingqing think she would hurt Chu Zixi?
It seems that she was really too much towards them before!
She quickly retracted her hand and said with a smile: "Sister, don't be afraid. I just think Zixi is cute and want to touch his little face. Don't get me wrong!"
After hearing this, Liu Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief.
"The prince is back!" At this time, the voice of maid Yanyan came from outside.
"What? The prince is back? Zixi, go and greet your father." Liu Qingqing said, pulling Chu Zixi and ran out excitedly.
When Princess Rui saw this, she stood there awkwardly, feeling very sour in her heart.
At this time, Liu Qingqing had already rushed towards Prince Rui, while Chu Zixi had already thrown herself into Prince Rui's arms.
"Zixi, Qingqing, I'm back!" Prince Rui said, already squatting down, holding Chu Zixi in his arms, and kissed him on the face.
Then, he looked at Liu Qingqing with a gentle look on his face.
Liu Qingqing hurriedly lowered her head, her little face blushing like the sunset on the horizon.
When Princess Rui saw this scene from a distance, her eyes wet unconsciously.
The three of them are a family, but she, the head wife, is like an outsider.
Seeing that Prince Rui liked Chu Zixi so much, she gently covered her belly with a look of discomfort on her face.
My child, do you also need your father’s love?
I'm sorry, it's all my mother's fault for leaving you here alone, watching your father pamper others.
At this time, King Rui finally discovered Princess Rui.
When he saw Princess Rui, he looked shocked, "Jing, Jingyi, why are you here?"
Seeing this, Princess Rui quickly wiped the tears from her eyes, walked towards them, and tried her best to keep a smile, "Well, Your Majesty, I came to see my sister and Zixi, and bought them something by the way."
Prince Rui looked up and saw the clothes, jewelry and other gifts held in the servant's hands.
He looked at Princess Rui suspiciously. She actually came to care about Qingqing?
Is she pretending, or is she sincere?
But whether she is sincere or fake, since she is showing her kindness to Qingqing, he will accept it.
He nodded approvingly, "Okay, as long as you have the heart."
Princess Rui smiled and said: "Qingqing is my sister. We are a family. Of course we should care about and take care of each other. Don't worry, I will take good care of them for you when you are not in the palace."
Princess Rui's voice was very gentle and her look was very sincere, which made Liu Qingqing look unhappy.
This woman must be pretending. She didn't believe that she would be so generous and truly take care of them.
But with the prince here, of course she has to pretend to see who is better at pretending.
Thinking of this, she held Prince Rui's arm and smiled softly: "Your Majesty, my sister is right. We are a family and we should take care of each other. We have forgotten all those things in the past. From now on, we will be a good family."
Have a good life, okay?"
Seeing that the two women were so generous and sensible, King Rui looked happy.
He put his arm around Liu Qingqing's shoulders and said with a smile: "Okay, I am very pleased to see that the relationship between you two has become so good. Then Jingyi, you can stay here tonight and have a meal here!"
Princess Rui nodded lightly, "Okay then! Speaking of which, our family hasn't had a meal together yet!"
A trace of anger flashed in Liu Qingqing's eyes.
Bah! Who is your family?
This woman is so shameless that she has to stay here to eat, which is simply off-putting to her.
She was very unhappy in her heart, but she said with a smile on her face: "Okay, then I will quickly ask the kitchen to prepare it. Let's have a nice meal tonight."
Soon, the meal was ready in the small kitchen.
Prince Rui, Princess Rui, Liu Qingqing and Chu Zixi sat down at the table and started eating.
During the meal, Liu Qingqing kept pouring wine for Prince Rui, and Prince Rui kept picking up vegetables for Chu Zixi. Chu Zixi held the rice bowl in front of her and called her father and mother from time to time.
The three of them looked happy and happy, like a family, while Princess Rui sat beside them as calmly as if they were empty air.
Princess Rui lowered her head and slowly picked at the food in the bowl, without any appetite at all.
It turns out that the three of them were so happy when they were together.
In the past, when King Rui often didn't go home, was he also having dinner with Liu Qingqing and his son? Was he also in such harmonious and happy condition?
For so many years, she had worked hard to plan for him at home, stained her hands with blood, and done many shameful things, while he was enjoying family happiness outside.
It turns out that she has been kept in the dark all this time. She is so stupid!
