Chapter 89 His princess dislikes him!
"Your Highness, wouldn't have noticed it too, right?" Su Ci's brows were twisted.
Si Xue didn't know how to answer this question. She felt that His Highness looked gentle on weekdays, but in fact he was very scary, and such a person had deep thoughts.
"If the princess does not want to consummate the marriage, she must find a long-term way to avoid His Highness." Si Xue couldn't bear to pour cold water on her master.
She felt that if someone like His Highness wanted to get someone, he would definitely do whatever it took, right? Moreover, the princess and His Highness were a married couple, and consummating their marriage was a matter of course. If they could hide for a while, could they hide forever?
She didn't dare to tell the truth, for fear of frightening her master.
"That's true. Never mind. I'll stay at Hexu Zhai for one night." Su Ci said, quickening his pace towards Hexu Zhai.
Su Hua finally settled down in Hexuzhai and ate some food to relieve her hunger.
But thinking about what happened after she was carried into the palace today, she felt exhausted both physically and mentally.
She thought that once she entered Zhao Shizhu's backyard, she would have a chance to win Zhao Shizhu's heart, but the reality was so cruel. She was humiliated by Zhao Shizhu and driven out of Jingyuanzhai.
Now she has become a joke in the palace.
While she was feeling sorry for herself, Bai Shuang brought in some fruit and said, "Since you are already a member of Shi Zhu, don't let your imagination run wild. You still have a long way to go."
Su Hua felt somewhat grateful to Bai Shuang at this moment, although she knew that Bai Shuang might have invited her here to join forces with her to deal with Su Ci.
"Thank you sister for taking me in. I am very grateful." Su Hua said softly.
Bai Shuang looked at Su Hua's features, which were somewhat similar to hers, and always felt something indescribable was wrong.
She knew she was beautiful, but she didn't expect Su Hua to be three times more beautiful than her.
From the moment she knew Su Hua had entered the palace, she knew that there was no sisterhood between Su Hua and Su Ci. If she used Su Hua to deal with Su Ci, that would be the best thing to do.
The two chatted casually in a harmonious atmosphere, but each of them had his own ulterior motives.
At this moment, Shan'er came in and reported: "Aunt, the princess is here."
Su Hua and Bai Shuang looked at each other, both of them were puzzled as to why Su Ci came to Hexuzhai so late.
The moment they saw Su Ci, they all noticed Su Ci's red and swollen lips.
The expressions of the two women changed slightly. They suspected that Su Ci came to Hexu Zhai on purpose to show off to them in this way.
Su Ci didn't notice this detail. She looked at Su Hua and said, "I heard that my sister is here. I'm worried that she won't be able to get used to it, so I plan to stay in Hexuzhai tonight."
Su Hua didn't believe at all that Su Ci still had any sisterly feelings for her, but since Su Ci said so, she couldn't refuse.
"Don't worry, sister. I'm fine." Su Hua replied indifferently and glanced at Su Ci's slightly swollen red lips.
Maybe she was overthinking it. Zhao Shizhu didn't like Su Ci, so how could he kiss Su Ci?
"I'll find a room to stay in so as not to disturb my two sisters' conversation." Su Ci was still in shock and had no mood to deal with two women, so he left on his own.
After making sure Su Ci was far away, Bai Shuang asked Su Hua, "Were you and the princess very close in the Marquis' Mansion? Why do I feel that it's a little strange that the princess suddenly moved into Hexuzhai tonight?"
Could it be that Su Ci saw that they were planning to join forces and came here to monitor them?
"It's OK. I always feel that it's unusual for my sister to come here suddenly. There are so many villas in the palace, there's no need for my sister to squeeze into Hexuzhai, right?" Su Hua always felt that something was wrong. And Su Ci's lips...
Although she was a virgin, Aunt Wang showed her some pamphlets before she entered the palace.
Su Ci's lips suddenly became swollen, something was definitely wrong.
It couldn't be that Zhao Shizhu had developed an interest in Su's poems...
Thinking of this, she immediately rejected this possibility. Zhao Shizhu had not been attracted to Su Ci for such a long time, so how could he develop feelings for her in less than half a month after Su Ci married into the palace?
What's so good about Su Ci? It's impossible for a man like Zhao Shizhu to have feelings for Su Ci, a good-for-nothing woman. It's even more impossible for Zhao Shizhu to have such a bad vision.
Thinking of this, she felt at ease.
Not to mention that Su Hua was curious about why Su Ci wanted to live in Hexu Zhai, even Bai Shuang couldn't understand the reason.
The two concubines were wondering if Su Ci had any conspiracy behind moving into Hexuzhai, while Su Ci was thinking about how to avoid consummating her marriage with Zhao Shizhu.
Because she was too worried, she, who usually had a good sleep, had nightmares the whole night. She dreamed that Zhao Shizhu ate her up and kicked her off the bed in disgust, and even brought her a bowl of Xiaoyao soup. She was awakened by this nightmare.
Little did she know that the whole palace was spreading the rumor that Prince Duan's wives and concubines had all stayed in Hexuzhai last night.
The news that Su Hua was kicked out of Jingyuanzhai had already spread, but why did the princess move into Hexuzhai?
Some people analyzed that it must be because His Highness took in two beautiful concubines not long after the marriage, which made Princess Su Ci lose face, so the princess became angry and got angry with His Highness.
That makes sense, but why would he want to live with two concubines? That's weird.
The servants in the palace were all speculating vividly that Su Ci was living in Hexu Zhai in order to annoy Prince Duan, but at this time, news came that Su Ci had fallen ill.
Qi Xi looked at his master who was moody early in the morning, and reported in a low voice that Su Ci was ill.
Zhao Shizhu didn't react at all after hearing this, which made Qi Xi confused.
It was obvious that before rushing back to the palace, His Highness was in a hurry to get on the road and even mentioned Su's poems to him.
How come His Highness doesn’t take it seriously at all when the prince is sick?
"Your Highness, aren't you going to see the princess?" Qi Xi asked cautiously.
Zhao Shizhu glanced at the gloomy sky outside the window and asked: "Why do you want to go and see it?"
Qi Xi was unhappy when she heard this: "Your Highness, this is not right. The princess helps Your Highness with household chores, and because she is unhappy about Your Highness taking a concubine, she ran to live in Hexuzhai..."
"Qi Xi, when did Su Ci bribe you?!" Zhao Shizhu interrupted Qi Xi's chattering.
Qi Xi blushed when she heard this: "The princess did not bribe me, and I cannot be bribed by anyone. I just think that the princess is virtuous and kind, and Your Highness should cherish her if she marries him, otherwise it will disappoint the princess."
Zhao Shizhu smiled: "She didn't bribe you, but you always speak well of her. It shows that Su Ci is indeed a capable person."
He was determined to live a good life with her, but she ran to Hexu Zhai to avoid him and lived with his two concubines. She was really capable.
Qi Xi heard Zhao Shizhu's sarcastic tone and realized something was wrong: "Did the princess do something to make His Highness unhappy?"
Of course Zhao Shizhu would never tell others about his bedroom affairs. He felt ashamed about it. His princess actually despised him!!!
