Chapter 315 I can't help feeling sour
Qin Xiaoning stepped into Lu Ji's palace.
After entering the mansion, the scene before you is even more eye-catching.
The blue bricks and brown tiles, the towering buildings, the flowing water under the small bridges, and the clusters of flowers are simply dazzling.
Glancing at the little woman's increasingly cold face, Lu Ji spoke calmly, "Does this place still appeal to you?"
If you still don't like this place, then you may have to live in the palace.
The man was teasing her.
Anyway, Qin Xiaoning just found it irritating.
She rolled her eyes at Lu Ji and said, "Ah, power is still good. Look at this big house. It really opens my eyes as a commoner."
Hearing her sour words, Lu Ji did not argue with her, but turned to the housekeeper and ordered: "Put the lady in my bedroom."
Without waiting for the butler to reply, Qin Xiaoning snorted, "How can this be possible? I am just a commoner, how can I live in the prince's bedroom? This is overstepping my authority."
In front of the servants, the little woman did not give Lu Ji any face at all and completely followed her own temper.
She got angry when she thought about him giving the position of princess to Wang Fengyi.
He had made solemn promises to her before, but after only two months, he changed his mind.
How can I not be angry?
Looking at the mansion being so magnificent, any woman would feel jealous.
Faced with the little woman's difficulty, Lu Ji still had no reaction, but just instructed the housekeeper: "After the lady checks in, all food should be prepared according to her requirements."
You see, he only cares about what she eats, which means he is afraid of hurting his child.
The little woman rolled her eyes at the man again and followed him into the bedroom with a wooden face.
Needless to say, the bedroom where the Regent lives is naturally extremely gorgeous. Even the big pillars in the hall are made of white marble. It takes three people holding hands to barely hug it. Such thick white marble is considered a rare treasure in the world. I wonder how much silver it is worth.
The furnishings in the palace were also exquisite and sophisticated. Qin Xiaoning looked at this luxurious palace carefully, and her heart became even more sour.
I don’t know whether Lu Ji will let Wang Fengyi live in this palace after he marries her.
It is really comfortable to marry a prince who is second only to the emperor and live in such a luxurious house without being bound by the rules of a noble family.
The daughter of Wang family of Langya is indeed lucky.
"Are you satisfied?" Lu Ji looked at Qin Xiaoning and spoke slowly.
The little woman who had been looking around the palace slowly stopped and slowly withdrew her gaze. She fixed her sour eyes on Lu Ji's face without saying a word. After a while, she gave him a fierce look.
Along the way, what Lu Ji suffered the most was her contempt.
Men are kind of used to it.
He said, "If you are satisfied, you can stay here. If you need anything later, just ask Guan Jiafu to arrange it for you."
Qin Xiaoning snorted: "Are you just going to abandon me here?"
The little woman had a cold face and looked angry, and she looked unhappy all over.
Lu Ji glared at her and laughed: "When we entered the city just now, you kept scolding me, saying that you have a bad temper and that it's because those who are close to me are black, so you asked me to stay away from you."
The little woman snorted heavily: "I just said it casually, do you really think I need you to accompany me?"
After saying that, she gave the man another fierce look.
In front of the servants of the palace, the little woman did not give him face, but the man did not get angry. Instead, he smiled faintly and replied to her: "I still have things to do. Even if you want to pester me to accompany you right now, I am busy." After that, he turned and left.
Is really gone.
Qin Xiaoning looked at his departing back and felt as if her heart was stuffed with a ball of cotton.
"Madam, is there anything you need?" Seeing that the master had left, the butler Fu Lai, who had been standing beside him with his hands hanging down, came over and spoke.
At this moment, Qin Xiaoning was not in a good mood, and replied: "I don't need to be served here."
Fu Lai pointed to a few dignified maids beside him and said with a smile: "These few were selected from the palace. They are all steady people. They will stay by the Madam's side to serve."
"No need." Qin Xiaoning raised her eyes and glanced at the maids, and said in a dull tone: "I have my own maids, I don't need your people."
Seeing this, the housekeeper said nothing more, only said: "Then I will take the people down first. If the Madam has any instructions, just send someone to call them."
As he spoke, the butler retreated with several maids.
While walking outside, Qin Xiaoning heard a maid whisper to another: "Is this the woman the prince has been looking for?"
"Yes, that concubine."
"Oh--"
The two spoke in very low voices, but they still did not escape Qin Xiaoning's ears, especially the last word "oh", which was quite meaningful.
It's ironic.
It was a satire that she was just a concubine.
This has always been Qin Xiaoning's hidden pain, so she is particularly sensitive.
Songzhi took Hong'er and Qing'er to pack up all the necessary items. They were all shocked by the grandeur of the palace, especially Hong'er and Qing'er, who had never seen the world before. They simply regarded the palace as a paradise.
Songzhi and the two maids chattered, "Our prince is the regent. Apart from the emperor, he is the most powerful one. So our palace is only slightly inferior to the imperial palace."
"Then can we live here permanently?" Hong'er asked.
Qing'er also looked expectant: "If I can stay here forever, I will do anything for you."
People do change.
When leaving Shuwang, Songzhi was still angry because Lu Ji didn't give her the position of wife. Now seeing this magnificent palace, she called him "our prince". And Hong'er and Qing'er, when they were told to bring them to the capital, they were very reluctant to leave Shuwang's house. They only thought that house was the best. Now, they are a little tempted by other things.
It can be seen that wealth and glory are the most deceiving things.
This couldn't be blamed on the maids. Even she herself felt jealous when she saw Lu Ji in such a glorious state.
It's not a good feeling.
Seeing that Qin Xiaoning was unhappy, Song Zhi sent away the two maids, leaned closer and asked, "Do you regret it?"
"What do you regret?" Qin Xiaoning asked knowingly.
Songzhi sighed, "The prince promised you that he would marry you as his principal wife in the future, but you just didn't want to wait. Now look, he has become the regent in just a few months. Tell me, if you had been a little more patient, you wouldn't have gotten the position of princess."
To say I have no regrets is a lie.
Who could have imagined that Lu Ji, who was restricted in every way and could not marry on his own, would become the regent so quickly.
The man who held great power and enjoyed unlimited glory was unwilling to marry her.
Indeed, I blame her.
I didn't listen to him at first.
