Chapter 379 Everything Has Its Cause and Effect

Qingyang and Yinyue had to leave silently.

When they reached the outer hall, Qingyang turned his head hesitantly to look at Yinyue, and lowered his voice and said, "The princess looks so gentle."

Yinyue hummed, "Call me Your Majesty."

"Yes, Your Majesty looks so gentle." Qingyang changed his words, and couldn't help but struggle for a moment after saying it, not knowing whether it was his illusion, "But I feel chilly all over, Yinyue, do you think it's weird?"

Yinyue glanced at him silently and said, "Not at all, I feel chilly all over too."

The two looked at each other, as if they exchanged a tacit look, and then they moved their feet at the same time, one walked silently to the outside of the hall and stood, and the other walked to the corner of the screen and stood.

Are kind and gentle people definitely not tempered?

No, absolutely not.

On the contrary, once such a person gets angry, it will definitely make people feel cold.

Nan Xi, who made people feel chilly, did not have the energy to care about what Qingyang and Yinyue were thinking at this time. She was now taking care of Rong Yu wholeheartedly, with extremely gentle movements and full of patience.

To be honest, putting aside the experiences and identities of the past and present lives, and whether she was stupid or not, Nan Xi herself was a kind and gentle girl, which was beyond doubt.

When she was a girl, Nan Xi was a little girl without any scheming. If she liked someone, she would be infinitely good to that person without asking for anything in return.

This was her nature, and she would not consider the gains and losses all the time.

Even if she later found out that she liked the wrong person, she suddenly realized that she had revenge on that person and had grievances, she would never take such grievances out on other people.

She liked clearly, and hated clearly, without any ambiguity.

So when she really showed her gentleness and virtue, people would feel that she was definitely the best woman in the world, and even the most hard-hearted people could not resist her gentleness.

Just like Rong Yu at this time.

Just like the process of taking medicine just now, eating porridge was also silent. Nan Xi's feeding action at this time was as careful as an old mother taking care of her child. She blew every mouthful of porridge to cool it down before giving it to him, as if she was afraid of scalding him.

But Rong Yu looked at her smiling expression, which was clearly like a spring breeze, and for a moment he was a little scared to speak.

The bowl of porridge was soon finished.

Nan Xi said: "Do you want another bowl?"

Rong Yu shook his head.

Nan Xi put the bowl aside, "Do you feel uncomfortable? I'll ask Yin Yue to fetch water for you to wipe your body?"

Rong Yu pursed his lips.

"I mean, let Yin Yue fetch water and bring it in, and I'll wipe your body."

Rong Yu was silent for a moment, and nodded slowly: "Yes."

"You are really frugal with words." Nan Xi sighed lightly, turned around and told Yin Yue to fetch water.

At Yin Yue's command, a palace servant soon came in with hot water. Nan Xi praised Yin Yue for her thoughtfulness. She knew that her prince wanted to take a bath, so she had people prepare the water early.

Yin Yue did not dare to take credit: "Your Majesty is taking care of the prince tonight. I am a little uneasy because I am idle. I feel that I have failed in my duty."

The palace has a large group of maids, female officials and palace maids, but it is indeed uneasy for His Majesty to take care of the regent personally. What's more, it is late at night and Nan Xi is pregnant... If it were normal times, the palace servants would have knelt on the ground in fear.

After all, they have served in the palace for many years, and have never seen the king of a country condescending to serve others.

Fortunately, Nan Xi had Yin Yue and Yin Shuang by her side, and told them in advance that they didn't need to be nervous. The Regent and His Majesty just had too deep feelings for each other, and they didn't want to let others do it. Moreover, although the Regent was seriously injured, Nan Xi never said a harsh word from beginning to end, nor did she lose her temper with anyone. This invisibly alleviated the fear and anxiety in the hearts of the palace people, making the first night of the coronation ceremony relatively peaceful.

Nan Xi asked Rong Yu to sit on the edge of the bed, carefully wiped his body again, and changed him into a snow-white and clean pajamas.

Then the nanny brought people in to dismantle the mattress and replace it with a clean one.

After all this tossing and turning, it was already past midnight. Rong Yu honestly lay back on the bed. Nan Xi was lying on his inner side, supporting her forehead to see that his profile was still white and thorough: "Does it hurt a lot?"

Rong Yu turned his face to the side and curled up Nan Xi's hair with his fingers: "It's okay."

It's okay?

Nan Xi knew that his "OK" was definitely too much for others to handle, but she had no interest in arguing with him about this, and said calmly: "On the way to Dongling before, I heard you mention the Empress Jinghua, saying that she was the oldest among the royal heirs?"

Rong Yu was slightly startled, then hummed.

"Doesn't she have an imperial brother?"

Imperial brother?

Rong Yu was silent for a moment, as if thinking back: "He is not the heir of the emperor, and he died before he reached adulthood."

Nan Xi was surprised: "Not the heir of the emperor?"

But in her dream, that person seemed to be born by the queen.

Is it that the information displayed in her dream was wrong?

"Well, no."

Rong Yu obviously didn't have a deep impression of this person, or that person was so insignificant that he didn't deserve to be taken seriously.

Nan Xi hummed, thinking that it should be some royal secret. If the emperor found out that the eldest son was not his own, he would naturally not announce it to the world, but would find a reason to kill him openly, and then completely erase this person from the genealogy.

In fact, Nan Xi could figure it out.

Rong Yu fell in love with Dan Shu before she ascended the throne, but all the unforgettable things happened after she ascended the throne. From the time he ascended the throne at the age of sixteen to his death at the age of thirty, those fourteen years belonged to Rong Huaijin's life.

Memories outside of those fourteen years may not be worth remembering.

Fourteen years that are unforgettable...

Nan Xi lowered her eyes and thought that those memories, whether beautiful or painful, should be difficult to erase.

Especially his obsession was so deep that he wanted to carry the memories of his previous life with him even if he died, just to find the person he loved in his previous life in this life. He was really possessed by a demon. If he was forcibly stopped, it would be a bloody injury to both of them.

"Xi'er." Rong Yu's eyes were fixed on her calm appearance, and his voice was a little depressed and uneasy, "Do you hate me for deceiving you?"

Nan Xi looked up at him: "Deceiving?"

Rong Yu pursed his lips: "I should have told you the truth earlier, instead of letting you be pushed to the throne without knowing anything, and then being forced to remember the things that should have been forgotten long ago."

Nan Xi was silent for a moment, and shook his head slowly: "It's not disgust. After all, if you didn't have the memory of the previous life, or if Empress Jinghua and I really wanted to make a clear relationship, we might not have any involvement in this life. After all, girls like me are not uncommon among the ladies of any country, let alone the Great Zhou. With your temperament, how could you fall in love with me for no reason, and be so devoted to someone like me who doesn't know what's good for you?"
