Chapter 764: The Rules in the Palace?

Chu Liuyue was born to Concubine De, who was the first of the four concubines. Apart from the Queen, she was the most respected in the palace.

But in fact, when she first entered the palace, Concubine De was only the one with the lowest status, because she entered the palace with her biological sister. Her sister was the eldest daughter of the family, so entering the palace meant she had a high position, and she, as the The second daughter, if not for a special event, would not have followed her into the palace.

Two palace concubines cannot enter the two palaces at the same time. Even if she came in with special circumstances, she would only be forced to become a small palace concubine. Compared with her sister who entered the palace in great glory, she was just a small wave.

But in the end, the wave turned into a huge wave, and her sister was beaten to death in the wave. She stood out, and her noble sister was no longer remembered by anyone.

This is Concubine De's story, but there is also Concubine Lan's story...

It is said that the royal family is the most disciplined, but in fact it is also the least disciplined. When the rules encounter some special things, they will always give way.

"What nonsense!" Chu Liuyue slammed her hand on the table and said sternly.

"Your Highness!" Shao Yanru was startled and looked at Chu Liuyue in astonishment. Then her eyes turned red with tears in her eyes and she began to sob. "Your Highness... you... what do you mean?"

Chu Liuyue calmed down, restrained the anger that surged in her heart, and softened her voice: "Is it okay to talk nonsense like this? It would be bad if others heard it!"

"Yes...I know His Highness is doing it for my own good!" Shao Yanru looked at Chu Liuyue with tears in her eyes, gently wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and smiled shyly, "What my father meant...wait for me to follow. After you are together... he will do his best... he is a daughter like me... and will always consider me!"

Chu Liuyue frowned and understood the meaning of Shao Yanru's words. Duke Xingguo was an old fox. He looked kind and smiled to everyone, but he never said anything steady.

This sentence is very stable now, but the premise is that he wants to marry Shao Yanru. He really wanted to marry Shao Yanru before, and he must do the same for the sake of rejuvenating the Duke's palace.

But what happened was that Shao Yanru fell into the water in the palace, and marrying Shao Yanru again made her inexplicably tired. Even if others didn't know, Chu Liuzhou and Chu Qing knew it.

This feeling is as if if I really marry Shao Yanru as the official concubine, I will definitely be secretly ridiculed by Chu Liuzhou and Chu Qing. With Chu Liuzhou's character, it is impossible to say that they will even ask him to stab him from time to time to make him feel their own. The head is all green.

Chu Qing was something he didn't like, but when he thought about him still holding Shao Yanru, and seeing more than one person in the water at that time, he felt that his throat was blocked, and he couldn't swallow or spit it out. It was greasy and uncomfortable. .

But he couldn't let Shao Yanru out, especially what Shao Yanru said just now, this sentence can be said to be true. Whoever wins Shao Yanru will definitely get the support of Duke Xingguo, and it is the support of that old fox without any hesitation.

Give Shao Yanru the position of concubine? What about Shao Wanru?

His brain was spinning rapidly, and he had made a decision in his heart. Shao Wanru would do him no harm at all, and he could not be with Shao Wanru if he had Shao Yanru, as well as Chu Liuxin's reaction. He should take these into consideration.

When he sits on that high position, what kind of beauty will he not have? Even if he can't let go by then, how can Chu Liuxin be his opponent? So what if he snatches her away!

He reached out and shook Shao Yanru's hand on the table, squeezed it twice, and his eyes softened: "Don't worry, I will let you enter my palace, but you also know that there are some things that I The king cannot completely make the decision. I will try my best to protect you from your father and mother, but if something unexpected happens... you have to believe in me. Even if you are in a low position for a while, it is only temporary!"

"What do you mean, Your Highness?" Shao Yanru raised her reddish eyes and looked at Chu Liuyue eagerly. Her watery eyes were full of affection. Even the most hard-hearted man couldn't help but want to embrace her. Take it into your arms and take pity on it.

"I am just afraid of what happens. If anything happens, you know that I only have you in my heart. In the future...everything will be yours!"

Chu Liuyue knew that Shao Yanru understood and comforted her softly.

He could not give him the position of the principal concubine, but he could grant him the position of side concubine. Of course, he also knew that Shao Yanru would not be satisfied. Not only Shao Yanru, but also Duke Xingguo's mansion would not be satisfied. It was necessary to draw another big cake for them. Duke Xingguo was so I haven't taken sides for many years, I haven't reacted to my obvious statement, and I have left Shao Yanru here now. Isn't that just choosing one side?

The corners of his lips twitched, silently taunting him. Duke Xing Guo really dared to do this. What did he think of the royal heirs?

Thinking of this, she felt inexplicably disgusted with Shao Yanru. The charming face in front of her looked extremely unreal. What she expressed on her face should be what she was willing to express!

Shao Yanru has been smart since she was a child. She would please herself and Chu Liuzhou when she was young, but she doesn't care so much about Chu Liuxin. As for Chu Liuchen, can she please her!

This feeling of being chosen over and over was very bad. No matter how affectionate Shao Yanru was in front of her, Chu Liuyue felt inexplicably uncomfortable and fake.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, I... I will listen to you!" Shao Yanru lowered his head, turned his head silently and wiped his tears. When he looked back, he was smiling, and he was forcing a smile to listen to Chu Liuyue's words.

Chu Liuyue didn't notice that she was tugging hard on the handkerchief in her hand, and the handkerchief was almost pinched into her palm.

Shuqi coughed hard and stepped aside.

The two people in the room fell silent. Chu Liuyue calmly retracted her hand, and Shao Yanru also dropped her hand and held it on his knee.

"My servant has met His Royal Highness King Xin and the Fifth Young Lady!" Seeing the figure appearing at the door, Shuqi took another step back and saluted respectfully.

"Brother, Miss Shao, Miss Shao Wu and I are here to talk to you." Chu Liuxin jumped in and waved her hand to indicate Shuqi's exemption.

Shao Wanru walked in slowly behind him, bowed respectfully to Chu Liuyue, and then called her eldest sister.

"Your Highness, Prince Xin, please sit down, Fifth Sister, please sit down too!" Shao Yanru stood up as if to greet them, but she stood up too hastily, staggered and almost fell down, Shuqi hurriedly came over and stretched out his hand to support her.

"Sister, don't get up if you're still hurt." Shao Wanru smiled and sat down beside Shao Yanru.

Chu Liuxin also sat down next to Chu Liuyue.

After he went to Shao Wanru's house and knocked on the door, Shao Wanru asked him to wait a moment, and then followed him to Shao Yanru's house.

Looking at Shao Wanru's soft profile, Chu Liuxin liked it more and more, and felt that Shao Wanru was a polite person.

"Fifth Miss, I was really rude just now. I knew that Fifth Miss was right next door to the eldest miss, so I came right over." Chu Liuxin apologized.

It sounds like he is indeed wrong in this matter. It is always not good for a man and a woman to be together.

"His Royal Highness King Xin is so polite!" Shao Wanru smiled nonchalantly.

"I'm not being polite, I'm really sorry. It's really inappropriate for the two of us to be in the same room alone. It's better to be with the eldest brother and the eldest lady!" Chu Liuxin said sincerely, "The fifth lady is a polite person. , but I defied Miss Fifth, I really can’t help it!”

Chu Liuxin thought so in her heart, so she said so. When she saw Chu Liuyue's cold expression and Shao Yanru's embarrassed look, she immediately woke up.

At that moment, he cupped his hands towards Chu Liuyue and explained with a smile: "Brother, eldest lady, I'm not talking about you, of course. Your relationship is unusual. Even if you meet in private, it's okay!"

His words came out smoothly, but after he finished speaking, he realized that he had said the wrong thing again. Shao Yanru's face turned red and his head lowered further.

It was as if Chu Liuyue and Shao Yanru had an affair for a long time.

"No, no, brother, that's not what I meant. I just meant that you are different from us." Seeing Chu Liuyue's cold eyes turning around, Chu Liuxin shook his hands wildly and tried to make amends again.

Shao Wanru burst into tears, and these words seemed to be another stab at pulling out the relationship between Chu Liuyue and Shao Yanru in broad daylight.

An affair between a man and a woman goes against Miss Shao's usual dignified behavior.

But she couldn't explain it now, she was ashamed and hateful, so she could only lower her head until it was almost buried.

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Chu Liuyue scolded unhappily. After taking a look at Shao Wanru, she found that she still had a smile on her face, as if she was watching a good show, and she became increasingly unhappy.

"Brother, I'm not talking nonsense. I saw Miss Shao's portrait in your study before!" Chu Liuxin said with a smile, glanced at Shao Yanru secretly, stretched out a thumb and gestured to Chu Liuyue, He has always been close to Chu Liuxin, and Chu Liuxin is also very kind to his youngest brother. There are things that others dare not say, but he just says whatever comes to his mind.

Shao Yanru held the handkerchief in her hand and felt that the annoyance in her heart disappeared immediately. At this time, she really blushed with embarrassment. As expected, King Yue had always been interested in her. He even drew a portrait of herself. When he couldn't see him normally, He must be looking at the portrait, so what he just said is true.

Even if she can't get a high position now, so what, Her Royal Highness Yue Wang has herself in her heart, only herself, the temporary low position is nothing, the one who laughs in the end is the one who laughs in the end, she will definitely be the one who laughs in the end!

Chu Liuxin unintentionally resolved Shao Yanru's hesitation just now.

Shao Wanru looked at the scene in front of him calmly, raised his eyebrows, and silently acted as a bystander. Suddenly, he subconsciously raised his head, and his watery eyes met Chu Liuyue's cold gaze.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense, it doesn't happen!" Chu Liuyue didn't want to explain at first, but now he blurted out the words for some reason. He didn't like Shao Wan's eyes as if he was watching a good show.

Shao Wanru lowered his eyes calmly and no longer paid attention to the interaction between Chu Liuyue and Shao Yanru. Chu Liuyue seemed to be staring at her with some annoyance, chasing her behavior closely.

Shao Yanru raised her head shyly, and what she saw was not Chu Liuyue's affectionate remarks to her, but his focused gaze on Shao Wanru. Her heart skipped a beat, remembering the scene in the pavilion yesterday!
