He has always been a person who does not show his emotions easily. From the moment his mother-in-law died, he hid his true self. He could even show a kind smile to the person who killed his mother-in-law.
Xia Bing didn't understand him. They were originally very good brothers, but from that time on, a wall was built between them, and Xia Bing gradually became alienated from him. Originally a cheerful person, he gradually became
When he is cold, he can even be unsmiling. People outside say that Xia Bing is cold and cold, but he is on the contrary. His gentleness and obedience have won the pursuit of everyone, and even gained the favor of his father, and even killed his mother.
The woman who became his concubine also felt at ease with him and accepted him without any hesitation.
Xia Li's pursed lips suddenly let out a sarcastic laugh, which seemed especially sad in the empty bathroom.
He did so much just to avenge his mother and concubine. Because of that woman's identity, he could only punish her when he reached the top.
In order to get into that position, he even had to marry a hypocritical and pretentious woman. Even so, he could do it. Faced with that hypocritical and ugly face, he could effortlessly say something against his will. But...
…
His eyes stagnated, and he lowered his eyes slightly, looking at the water in the pool. Suddenly, a small and delicate face was reflected in the water, with big eyes like stars in the sky, shining brightly, looking at him quietly.
He suddenly raised his hand and stirred up the water in front of him. The water rippled and the delicate face disappeared.
He knew that he was in love with that little woman, but so what?
He was destined not to receive her love, and she was not suitable to stay by his side.
so be it!
…
Su Chen sat up from the bed with big dark circles under his eyes.
Hu Lan fetched water from outside and came in. Seeing that she looked like she hadn't had enough sleep, she expressed concern: "If you can't get up, just lie down again. Your Majesty won't blame you."
Su Chen really couldn't get up. He looked at the sky outside and saw the light of dawn. He nodded. Just as he was about to lie back on the bed, there was a knock on the door. Butler Wang's serious voice came from outside, "Su Chen
, go and tidy up the house in the east courtyard."
Su Chen frowned, why did Butler Wang come to assign work to her so early? During this period, because of Xia Li's relationship, she received special care, and she only helped in Jifengju. Most of the time, Xia Li also
Turning a blind eye, she was happy and leisurely. As soon as she had free time, she would run to the magazine office.
Hu Lan was also confused and couldn't help but open the door and go out, "Steward Wang, is this the prince's order?"
Butler Wang glanced at her lightly and nodded, "Yes." He also felt a little strange in his heart. He has noticed how special the prince is to Su Chen these days, but today, before dawn, the prince
Ask Lu Yan to bring him a message and ask him to assign work to Su Chen, saying that no one in the house has any privileges, that Su Chen has become lazy recently, and that she should be given the work she deserves.
At this time, Su Chen had already put on his clothes and walked out. When he saw Butler Wang, he still bowed politely as usual, "Don't worry, Butler, I will go to the east courtyard to tidy up now."
Hu Lan looked at her small body and quickly walked into the white mist of the morning, feeling a little worried. What happened to the prince? Why did he suddenly treat Su Chen like this? She could see that the prince liked Su Chen very much!
Now she actually asked the housekeeper to come over in person to reassign Su Chen's work, which made her feel a little strange.
Butler Wang saw that Su Chen didn't ask anything and went to the east courtyard. He couldn't help but feel a little satisfied. In his opinion, Su Chen was a very well-behaved little maid. She was completely different from the previous one. She had become smarter.
That being said, he is really well-behaved.
Butler Wang thought and left the servant's room.
When they arrived at the east courtyard, Su Chen was cleaning the house absentmindedly.
What happened to the fox? Why did it change overnight?
Things got weird last night, but why?
She wasn't afraid that Xia Li would ask her to do the menial work of a servant again. Wasn't it like she had never done it before?
She is a very happy-go-lucky person.
But Xia Li's sudden change in attitude towards her made her feel a little confused.
…
Yifengju.
Liu Xian'er's eyes suddenly lit up when she heard the news from Lan Xiang, "Are you telling the truth?"
"It's absolutely true." Lan Xiang nodded, "After hearing the discussion of those people below, I went around to the east courtyard to take a look. Sure enough, that bitch was cleaning the house there."
Liu Xian'er raised her lips and smiled. The gloom of the past few days suddenly disappeared, and the air that had accumulated in her chest also dissipated.
"I'm just talking about that bitch's virtues. How could brother Li Wang like her? Has she been beaten back to her original shape now?" There was endless contempt and disdain in the words.
Lan Xiang nodded in agreement, "That's right, Miss, there is no need to take her seriously."
Liu Xian'er smiled, thought of something, sat down again, thought for a moment, and then said: "Brother Wangye, I was really special to that bitch some time ago, but now, don't you think it's strange?"
Lan Xiang also pondered for a moment, and after thinking about it, she felt something was wrong.
But Liu Xian'er stood up, with an unpredictable smile on her face, "It's nothing, I just need to make some tests."
…
After working in the east courtyard all morning, Su Chen's waist was so tired that he couldn't straighten up.
That bastard Xia Li actually gave her so much work. Although the east courtyard was temporarily idle, it was so big that just tidying up the garden took her a whole morning.
Su Chen came out of the east courtyard and was about to go to the kitchen to have something to eat. When she was passing by the pavilion by the lake, she suddenly heard someone calling her.
"Su Chen, come here."
Such a familiar voice.
Su Chen looked towards the source of the sound and saw Lan Xiang standing by the lake calling her.
She was stunned for a moment. What did Lan Xiang call her for?
He looked around her and saw no sign of Liu Xian'er. He hesitated for a moment and walked over.
As he got closer, he saw Liu Xian'er sitting in the pavilion drinking tea. She looked very leisurely and comfortable. Su Chen looked at Lan Xiang, who was very kind to her, with some suspicion. Just when he was about to speak, Liu Xian'er
Xian'er has already walked out of the pavilion.
"Su Chen, come here." Liu Xian'er waved to Su Chen.
Su Chen didn't walk over, knowing that Liu Xian'er was not a good woman, so looking at her smile, he felt it was fake.
"Miss Liu, what do you want me to do? Even if you tell me, I can stand here and hear you." Su Chen is not a fool. A woman like Liu Xian'er suddenly became kind to her. She didn't think it was because of her own personality.
