cold hearted son-in-law

Chapter 59 Before the Battle

On the New Year's Eve of the 12th year of Wen, the two who had been fighting for a long time inexplicably gathered together for a New Year's Eve dinner, and with them was Wu Wang Huangfuze who was also alone.The three of them ate and drank until midnight, and both Chu Yunxi and Huangfuze got very drunk.

Huangfuze lay on Chu Yunxi's shoulder, and said in a soft voice, "Hey, let me tell you a secret. In fact, people in the Huangfu family are devoted in their bones. Unfortunately, because they are too domineering, it often backfires, and the couples become resentful spouses. However, the prime minister can hold a boat in his belly, so I am optimistic about you, Wen Neng can govern the country, military power can stabilize the country, and you can subdue goblins to be your bride." The first half of Huangfuze's words seemed to be persuasive, but in the second half, he spoke with joy, that heroic spirit , quite a sense of honor that Chu Yunxi is really a 'manly man'.But she didn't see the eldest princess who was sitting beside Chu Yunxi, the look in his eyes had changed from impatient to knife-like arrows, almost to the point of driving him away.

Chu Yunxi had also drank a lot, and was trying to cover his forehead so that the table in front of him would not shake. Hearing what he said, he answered in a daze: "What domineering? Prime Minister? Bride? Haha, you drink too much Yes, nonsense."

"Nonsense, you just drank too much, who is talking nonsense? Huangfu's family is domineering, and it is set by the ancestors, and it cannot be changed. Come on, drink again!" Xi clinked glasses, but when he spoke, his saliva trickled down unconsciously.

Chu Yunxi thought he was disgusting, so he reached out and pressed his head on the table.Looking at the eldest princess who was looking at the two of them playing drunkenly, she was angry and laughed. Seeing that the night watch time was almost over, she got up and went to the outside of the hall to give a few orders. After a while, two little maids came in with two trays. , each with a bowl of hangover soup.

The eldest princess signaled the two little maids to pour Huangfuze down. She brought the bowl to Chu Yunxi and was about to coax her to drink it. Who would have thought that Chu Yunxi not only knocked the bowl to the ground with a wave of her hand, but also said, "Wow!" 'The sound spit out.The eldest princess retched twice, and pulled the person away from the vomit.

Looking at Huangfuze, he had obediently drank the hangover soup and fell asleep. The eldest princess glanced at the embarrassed Chu Yunxi speechlessly, and ordered Huangfuze to be moved to Yanqing Palace not far away to rest.She personally took care of Chu Yunxi who was already like mud.

It was true that Chu Yunxi drank too much, vomited, babbled nonsense, until the cock crowed at the fourth watch, and finally vomited blood, his face was as pale as paper, and then he stopped and fell into a deep sleep.

The eldest princess asked people to boil ginseng soup, fed her mouth to mouth with tears in her eyes, wiped and cleaned her body, and stayed by her side all night without sleep.At dawn, seeing that Chu Yunxi was sleeping soundly, he went to Yikun Palace to take the emperor to meet those officials who entered the palace early in the morning to celebrate the New Year.

It was past noon when Chu Yunxi woke up, and the eldest princess was reviewing the playbook on the low table next to her.Because of the war, the New Year is also hasty and busy.Because he was worried about Chu Yunxi's health, and he didn't want to take care of him with other people, so he just held on.

"Are you awake? Let's drink some porridge after washing up." Sensing Chu Yunxi's gaze, the eldest princess tilted her head and said, signaling to the palace servants waiting outside the door to prepare.

The warm winter sun shone in the hall through the doors and windows. The eldest princess sat in front of the window, looking at her with a tilted head and a smile, inexplicably warm and intoxicating.Chu Yunxi casually pulled her loose hair behind her ears, rubbed her eyes, and walked over. She had a headache after a hangover and her hands and feet were weak, so she sat cross-legged on the carpet next to the eldest princess, looking at the eldest princess intently. , the two looked at each other silently, one was bright and calm, the other was as deep as a starry sky but gentle.

"Happy New Year." After a long time, Chu Yunxi laughed first, and stretched out his hand to the Eldest Princess with his palm facing up.

The princess was taken aback for a moment, but she unconsciously shook her hand back, and looked at Chu Yunxi with a smile, her eyelashes curled up, her tenderness was like water.

But Chu Yunxi, who was sitting on the ground, stopped smiling. He turned his mouth away, stretched out another hand, looked at the eldest princess and said, "You haven't given the lucky money yet!"

The gentle atmosphere was instantly broken, and it took a long time for the eldest princess to come back to her senses, to free her hand, and 'concentrate' on reading the playbook on the table, not bothering to pay attention to her.

Chu Yunxi smiled silently, folded his hands and rested his head, lying on the table, looking through the window at the dripping water droplets on the eaves outside.The snow on the roof melted, and under the sunlight, the water droplets were crystal clear, peaceful and beautiful, reflecting the loneliness of the deep palace with blue bricks and red tiles.

"I'm sorry." There was silence in the hall, Chu Yunxi's voice was soft but serious, and after speaking, seeing the princess's body suddenly froze, she sighed silently.

When the eldest princess heard these three words, her hand holding the pen did not move for a long time, her heart was filled with mixed feelings, and her eyes were inexplicably moist.There are too many gaps and misunderstandings between them, but one is cold and arrogant, and the other is reserved and silent.Chu Yunxi could say a simple apology, which already contained too much meaning to the eldest princess.The misunderstanding may not be solved by an apology, but the pain in the heart will be soothed by an apology.Although Chu Yunxi's apology was late, it was a good start. At least she did not misunderstand the person she loved. No matter what happened, Chu Yunxi did not choose to give up this relationship.

The atmosphere was a bit heavy, the eldest princess suppressed the thousands of thoughts in her heart, and tried her best to raise a smile and tease Chu Yunxi: "Apologize for your lucky money?"

"Aren't you going to keep the New Year's money you gave me in the end?" Chu Yunxi smiled, and looked at the princess with bright eyes. Seeing that the haze between her brows finally dissipated, she got up and prepared for a gentle bear hug. The maidservant who was about to wash came in with various utensils.

The eldest princess looked at the man standing stiff with outstretched arms, and raised her eyebrows secretly.Chu Yunxi didn't care, and returned to his usual deserted appearance.The eldest princess sent people to search for Mrs. Hua while dealing with government affairs, while Chu Yunxi focused on self-cultivation after the poison had entered her internal organs.Accompanied by daily life, inseparable, although always silent, but also clinging.

The snow has melted, the sun is warm, and the severe winter cold has finally receded, ushering in the spring of blooming flowers.

In August of the 12th year of Jianwen, the two-year-old seventh son of the emperor, Huang Fuhan, ascended the throne and continued to use the reign name Jianwen.At the beginning of the next year, the name was changed to Yuanqi, and it was known as Xia Huizong in history.

And on the first day of December in the 12th year of Jianwen, Mrs. Hua, who burned most of the Imperial Palace in Kyoto with a fire, tried her best to gather 20 horses after escaping from the pursuers and crossing the Longjiang River. Nearly 30 people gathered in the Su'an area south of the river, and went to the battlefield to command in person. On the [-]th of the first month of the first year of Yuanqi, they handed over the letter of war, specifying that they would compete with Chu Yunxi.

The eldest princess intercepted the letter and dispatched 30 troops to station in Huaixi, north of the Longjiang River.

"Are you leaving again?" The eldest princess looked at Chu Yunxi who was leisurely watching the sunset on the deck chair, and asked standing in front of her.The setting sun shone behind the eldest princess, casting a layer of golden light on her, which made it impossible for Chu Yunxi to see the expression on her face clearly.

Chu Yunxi shook the letterhead in his hand, smiled lightly, and said, "I'm going to see you."

The eldest princess stood still and said nothing, Chu Yunxi smiled comfortingly at her, and said, "Don't worry, as long as I live, I will definitely come back."

"Why do you have to go to see her?" The princess's voice was low and she lowered her head slightly. Before Chu Yunxi could answer, she began to say again in a low voice: "'Lovesickness, forgetting and not blind date, who is the spring for? Destiny is impermanent, prosperous Life is perishable, life is difficult to enjoy, and flowers must be broken. Chu Lang, don’t you lose?’ Hehe, this letter is really lingering, of course you will go to the appointment, won’t you?”

Chu Yunxi frowned, seeing that the eldest princess did not speak, her heart was secretly angry at the words of the eldest princess, and her expression calmed down. After a while, she calmed down, looked at the eldest princess and said: "Don't think too much, the relationship between me and her What should I do sooner? This letter is probably written intentionally to annoy you." As she spoke, she smiled gently, and stretched out her hand to stretch the princess's hand.

Reaching out to not hit the smiling face, the eldest princess looked at the sick and weak person in front of her, and was even more reluctant to touch him again, but she was [-]% unwilling to let Chu Yunxi go to Mrs. Hua alone.What kind of person is Mrs. Hua? Doesn't her opponent who has been fighting with her for so long not understand?She has always regarded Chu Yunxi as prey, and she has been entangled with Chu Yunxi even after she and Chu Yunxi got engaged or even married, and later even did not hesitate to use Tai Chi Pill to control her. How could she let go easily this time?

"Really want to go?" The eldest princess asked again to confirm.

"I have to see you once." Chu Yunxi said decisively, holding the eldest princess tightly, and said softly: "Mingyue, trust me one more time, please?"

Chu Yunxi was determined to see Mrs. Hua, and she did not answer why the eldest princess insisted on seeing her. The information she got from the old department forced her to go, even though she knew it would be dangerous, even if she might be able The chances of persuading her to surrender are slim, but how innocent were those 30 lives?Chu Yunxi thought that since his death was approaching anyway, he would go to see Mrs. Hua, maybe this would be the last time.

The eldest princess thought for a long time in silence, the success rate of forcibly taking the antidote was as slim as Chu Yunxi's chance of surviving going to Mrs. Hua's place, so let her do it, there is no antidote, death is just too early or late.

"Okay! Since you are willing to die at Mrs. Hua's hands, I can't stop you, so I can only fulfill you!" The eldest princess squeezed out these words from between her teeth, and left with a wave of her sleeve.

Chu Yunxi sat in the same place, from the setting sun, to the sunset, until it was dark, and the lights were turned on, and then he came back to his senses and went back to the bedroom to rest.

In the first year of Yuanqi, on the fifth day of February, Chu Yunxi left his seal and military amulet, and went to cross the Longjiang River alone, and went to Su'an to find Mrs. Hua.
