Chapter 140: Fight to the Bottom of My Heart
She walked quickly to the prince and knelt down, "Prince, this time it is indeed Cheng'er's fault. You can punish him however you want! Either punish him according to the family rules, or break his legs to teach him a lesson!"
Xiao Jincheng didn't understand what Concubine Gao meant, but he knelt down as well.
"Prince, Cheng'er is also your son. Even if you don't like him, you have to consider him. He is not like the prince, who is born noble and will inherit the throne in the future. Cheng'er will leave the palace and be self-reliant in the future. If he doesn't have a good marriage, his life will be over!" Concubine Gao cried.
Both the princess and Ji Chuhe understood Concubine Gao's intention.
What Concubine Gao wanted by doing this was the prince's attitude!
"If I beat him up, will he be able to continue discussing marriage with the daughter of the dean of Lanshan Academy? If I beat him up, will he abandon the girl named Ming'er?" the prince asked in a deep voice.
There was a trace of sadness in Concubine Gao's eyes.
To put it bluntly, he favors Xiao Yanan, the legitimate son!
"At the beginning, the prince and Xu Yan'er were in love with each other, why did the prince stop them?"
"Xiao Yan'an has never done anything like this with Xu Yan'er!"
"What if she is pregnant? Will the prince let Xiao Yan'an marry Xu Yan'er?" Concubine Gao insisted.
"Concubine Gao, Aunt Xu originally wanted the position of principal wife, and the prince also promised her the position of principal wife, which is why my father and mother blocked her. Ming'er did not covet the position of the second young master's principal wife, and these two things cannot be confused." Ji Chuhe spoke again.
Concubine Gao shot him a cold look.
"If you don't want his reputation to suffer further, then don't take a concubine!" After saying this, Prince Huaiyang stood up and left.
Concubine Gao turned her head to look at the receding figure of Prince Huaiyang, then collapsed on the ground with a smile.
"It's different! It's always been different! What am I still expecting?"
Ji Chuhe stood up and walked towards the princess, "Mother, let's leave first."
"it is good."
Upon hearing this, Dong Ling immediately stood up and followed Ji Chuhe.
The princess and Ji Chuhe took their leave from Concubine Xu and walked out.
Xu Yan'er glanced at Xiao Yan'an.
Xiao Yan'an's face was gloomy, and no one knew what he was thinking at this moment.
"Prince, shall we take our leave as well?" Xu Yan'er asked softly.
Xiao Yan'an stood up and strode away.
"Prince! Wait for me!" Xu Yan'er quickly stood up and said goodbye, going to chase Xiao Yan'an.
Only Concubine Xu and Concubine Gao, mother and son, were left in the room.
"Concubine Gao, some things are destined from birth." Concubine Xu said sarcastically as if it had nothing to do with her.
Concubine Gao slowly stood up and said, "My Lady Concubine, you are already this old. May I ask if you have accepted your fate?"
Concubine Xu's face turned cold.
"I'll take my leave." Concubine Gao bowed and left.
Xiao Jincheng also hurriedly followed.
"Mother, do you still want this concubine?"
Concubine Gao raised her hand and slapped Xiao Jincheng.
Xiao Jincheng was stunned and lowered his head.
"I told you to be careful, Ji Chuhe, but you still rushed to be plotted against! Don't you have any brains? Remember what happened today. Your father didn't even want to beat you. How indifferent was that!"
"Mother, why do you insist that father beat me?" Xiao Jincheng still didn't quite understand.
"Who has he beaten among so many children? He only beat Xiao Yan'an! In his heart, Xiao Yan'an is his son. After beating him, he is going to plan for Xiao Yan'an with all his heart? What about you? Who are you? Are you worthy of the family rules?"
These words deeply hurt Xiao Jincheng's heart.
At this point, he finally understood what his mother meant.
Concubine Gao held Xiao Jincheng's shoulders and said, "Son, did you see clearly?"
"Mother, I see clearly."
"Then don't expect any father-son or brotherly love from now on! You and Xiao Yan'an have completely broken up, do you understand? You are at loggerheads with each other, and you will never be able to coexist peacefully in this life! Do you understand?"
"Understand."
"Louder! Look me in the eyes and answer me!"
"Understand!"
……
Ji Chuhe sent the princess to Heluan Palace.
The princess had some tea and snacks prepared, and the two of them chatted together.
"Concubine Gao doesn't seem like the kind of person who would dwell on trivial matters. I didn't know that she had so many things hidden in her heart, and today she couldn't help but burst out." The princess spoke with emotion.
She thought she had been kind and dutiful to her concubines, but unfortunately, they had their own ideas.
In fact, Concubine Gao was forced into this state by Ji Chuhe!
After a series of failures, not only did all their well-planned plans go to waste, but they were also completely exposed. However, Ji Chuhe refused to expose her, but instead set a trap for her, trapping them tightly!
Even though he had suffered a lot of loss, he couldn't completely lose face.
He could only swallow the broken teeth and blood.
Ji Chuhe poured the princess a cup of tea.
"Mother, please don't worry about this. I have always felt that a wife has her own way of being a wife, and a concubine has her own way of being a concubine. If they each follow their own way, they can live in peace. However, if someone is not satisfied with the status quo and insists on coveting things that do not belong to him, he will suffer the consequences sooner or later."
"He'er, you see everything so clearly. Your mother needs to learn from you."
"Mother, you really embarrass your daughter-in-law!"
"Mother has a question that has troubled me for a long time. I wonder if He'er can help me solve it?"
"Please speak, mother." Ji Chuhe listened respectfully.
"Tell me, is it better to be a human being or to be a bird flying freely?"
When Nanny Si heard this question, her wrinkles deepened.
"Mother, of course it's about being a good person." Ji Chuhe gave the answer without hesitation.
"Why? There are so many things that people cannot control, what's the point?"
"Because I am a human being, I can't turn into a bird, so it's better to be a human being."
When the princess heard this, she seemed to be thinking about something.
"As for not being able to control oneself, it is actually a shackle that one has put on oneself. I often tell myself that the result that I can see in front of me is the best result. Because this must be the situation that I can get after my best efforts. I have tried my best to make things better or worse. My own success or failure is not in the eyes of others, but only in my own heart. Why should I make things difficult for myself?"
The princess looked at Ji Chuhe in surprise at first, then slowly understood, and finally, she looked as if she had suddenly realized something!
Nanny Si also started laughing.
It has to be the lady!
Isn't it true that the problem that has troubled the princess for most of her life has been easily solved by the lady?
"Listening to He'er's words is better than reading ten years of books! It turns out that I have been living in shackles before!"
"I'm glad that mother has figured it out." Ji Chuhe responded with a smile.
“It suddenly dawned on me!”
“So, whether Concubine Gao will take a concubine in the end, we don’t need to worry about it. This is something that Concubine Gao should worry about. Cause and effect have their own cycles, and she needs to bear the consequences of her choice.” Ji Chuhe has cleared herself from this matter completely.
This little look that has nothing to do with me is so cute!
Just like a little fox!
The princess couldn't help laughing.
"If Concubine Gao knew your attitude, she would be so angry that she would vomit blood on the spot!"
"Mother, however, there is one thing we really need to worry about."
