Chapter 758 Accompanying (Second update)
Su Rong sat up. An illness and two months of busy work had made her lose several kilograms. No matter how much Aunt Zhao ordered the imperial chef to give her nourishing soup in different ways, it could not stop her from losing weight. My wrists all feel a bit slender.
She glanced down at herself and nodded, "The queen is right, but the busiest time in Nanchu was probably after the rebellion and the year after the war. In the next nine years, as long as everything is on track and in order, it won't be too busy. ."
Nangong Xin found a chair without comment, sat down and said, "Just lie down! I will be watching you from here."
Su Rong didn't even touch any files or memorials in the past three days. She just lay on the bed to recuperate peacefully. Now that she saw her and asked her to continue lying down, how could she lie down? Hearing this, he looked at Nangong Xin, "What's the point of lying down dryly? Since the queen is here to take care of me, why not play chess with me?"
Nangong Xin raised his eyebrows, "Do you have the strength to play chess?"
“Yes, you can’t just lie down all the time when you’re sick, it’ll take time to get better.”
Nangong Xin felt that the reason here was reasonable and nodded, "Okay!"
So, Nanny Zhao set up the chessboard with her own hands. Su Rong put on her clothes and went to the ground, where she sat face to face with Nangong Xin, and the two started playing chess.
The King of Nanchu came to the Feng Palace after the morning court, and saw Nangong Xin and Su Rong playing chess face to face. He was stunned for a moment, turned around and left.
Nangong Xin saw it and his face turned cold, "He is so old, it's as if no one rarely sees him."
Su Rong also saw the King of Southern Chu. He twisted the chess pieces and said, "Don't be as knowledgeable as him."
Nangong Xin paused and asked her, "Who are you facing? That's your biological father."
"Of course I'm going to face him. He's my biological father after all. However, I think I can give you a good face. What do you think?" Su Rong asked.
Nangong Xin almost threw the chess piece, "What do I want with that thing? What are you talking about?"
Su Rong sighed, "The key to a person's life is to be able to see clearly. It doesn't matter if a man is blind. You can't not understand for yourself and use other people's eyes to blind yourself and waste your life. You are still so young."
Nangong Xin was speechless, "You mean, if I agree, you will let me raise a noodle in the palace? But you threw the phoenix seal to me, didn't you insist that I be the queen?"
"One year later. You will help me in the palace for one year. After one year, I will give you the vacant residence of Nangong's family and let you out of the palace. At that time, you will have a good reputation, or if you like, , just recruit a son-in-law as a wife, that’s fine.”
Nangong Xin raised his eyebrows, "What are you planning?"
"No, that's right. As a woman, I can't bear for you to waste your life for a man, even if that man is my father, and you will die without enjoying a man." Su Rong said rudely.
Nangong Xin’s face darkened, “Look at what you said, there’s no trace of you being a princess! If word spreads, don’t be ashamed. Even the public officials will scold you to death.”
"Whatever." Su Rong was still seriously ill and was a bit careless. "The whole of Nanchu is in my hands. No official can impeach me and let him take this position."
Nangong Xin laughed angrily, "Are you serious?"
"yes."
"My senior sister is about to give birth now, and the child will be one year old at that time. She has lived in the palace in Daliang for more than ten years. I asked her earlier that she had been emotionally hurt by an ordinary man, and later killed that man with her own hands. I don't want to get married in the future." Su Rong said: "Of course, if you are willing, you can leave the palace and let her enter the palace. If you are not willing, then she can stay outside the palace and help me take care of the property."
Nangong Xin stared at the chessboard and dropped a piece. After a long time, she said lightly: "Okay, your father's virtues are really a waste for me to spend my whole life on him. I need you to remind me that I have lived my own life." As long as you are not afraid of strong opposition from the courtiers." "Don't be afraid, I have something to say to stop them." Su Rong said.
Nangong Xin nodded, "Okay, I don't know how to look at men, can you help me find one? If you don't want someone with a bad face, just marry me."
“Sure.” Su Rong nodded.
It wasn't that she was very kind, but this time, she could clearly see that Nangong Xin was conscientiously helping her manage the palace, making no mistakes, and not letting anyone disturb her or upset her, which greatly helped her stabilize the situation. In the rear, especially the young concubines, she negotiated privately and released them from the palace. Some left the palace to marry, some established their own families, and some were accepted by their families and returned home to retire. This was for her, she It's not heartless either.
Besides, she felt that her father really wouldn’t have to pay for his life. If he has to hide away in this palace, when will it end? She looked tired.
In the evening, Zhou Gu came back early. Nangong Xin saw Zhou Gu and then stood up to say goodbye.
Zhou Gu bowed his hands in greeting, then watched Nangong Xin leave, and then asked Su Rong in surprise, "The queen stayed with you for a whole day?"
"Yes, she said she would keep an eye on me for you, but she had to do it." Su Rong reached out and hugged Zhou Gu.
Zhou Gu commented, "The queen is quite nice, she doesn't look like someone from the Nangong family."
Su Ronxiao said, "With her temperament, she should have been a pleasant girl when she was young. It's just a pity that she met my mother. Otherwise, my father and her might not be what they are today."
Zhou Gu didn't have much contact with Nangong Xin, so he didn't comment on this. He just said one sentence and avoided the topic, "You will have another day off tomorrow."
"Don't you want it?" Su Rong's face dropped, "I'm so bored in the house that I almost grow hairy."
“You really want to go out to work?” Zhou Gu looked at her.
"That's not the case, there are so many things to do, no one can replace me, I will do it anyway." Su Rong sighed, "Anyway, it's no big deal."
Zhou Gu admitted this. Her position cannot be replaced by others, even if he is her concubine. There are some things that can replace her, and some things that cannot. He nodded, "Okay, then you can go for half a day tomorrow and come back for half a day."
Su Rong was happy, "No problem."
Zhou Gu took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Su Rong, "Letter from the East Palace."
Su Rong stretched out his hand to take it and asked casually: "What did you write?"
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince chose Crown Princess Duan Hua." Zhou Gu looked strange and muttered, "There is no one to choose from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? Can Duan Hua be the Crown Princess? I read the letter three times. If it were not written by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, The handwriting, I thought I was mistaken."
Su Rong was also surprised, "Is this happening?"
She quickly opened the letter. Because it was a letter sent by a flying eagle, the letter was short. After reading ten lines at a glance, Su Rong felt that this was really fresh. "There is no reason in this letter. It only said that they will get married in a year."
In fact, this letter only mentions that he married Princess Duanhua, and the rest are court affairs.
