Chapter 520 Marrying the Wrong Person
Although Rong Yu acted like a loyal dog in front of Nan Xi most of the time, he would say whatever Nan Xi said and would never resist.
But sometimes, he is also very tough.
For example, last night.
When he said he didn't have time, he really didn't have time. Nan Xi was trapped between the beds by him until midnight and fell asleep from exhaustion. She no longer had the energy to think about Lin Jia.
I slept until noon the next day, missed breakfast, and even had lunch half an hour late.
There were countless people outside the palace asking to see them, but Rong Yu was nowhere to be seen.
However, before Nan Xi woke up, Rong Yu had already ordered someone to inquire about the Huo family's affairs. He also knew that Lin Jia was taught a lesson by Mrs. Huo last night, and that Huo Yang stayed in the brothel all night and did not go home until dawn. .
"Lin Jia comes from a noble family. What's rare is that she is kind-hearted and sincere in her treatment of others. Her life should not be wasted by such a man. She deserves a better man." Nan Xi sat at the dining table, frowning slightly, "You send someone Send a message and ask Linjia to come over in the name of the regent."
Rong Yu said: "I thought you would go to the Huo family in person."
"Why are you going to the Huo family?" Nan Xi smiled lightly, "I'm not interested in the Huo family. Whether it's the overbearing Mrs. Huo or the coquettish Huo Yang, I don't intend to waste words with them. They can be solved with power. There is no need to waste extra time and energy on the problem.”
Use reason with reasonable people and brute force with unreasonable people.
Nan Xi could tell from just a few words spoken by Rong Yu and Ling Ling that Mrs. Huo was a selfish and unreasonable mother-in-law. Her attitude towards Lin Jia was probably related to the attitude of the eldest princess Rong Shan - the mother had no intention of protecting her daughter. Naturally, my husband’s family bullied me blatantly.
So what if you are the princess?
A woman who leaves the court has become a member of her husband's family, and her fate in this life is tied to her husband. Her father is absent, and her mother is indifferent to her, and even stands on the same front as her husband's family to force her. How can a delicate girl be like this? Room for resistance?
Nan Xi didn't intend to reason with anyone. She wouldn't stay in Dazhou for long anyway. No matter what those people said, as long as she could get Lin Jia out of the predicament she was in, it didn't matter what others said.
Rong Yu agreed, sent someone to the Huo family to deliver the order, and then began to concentrate on serving Nan Xi's meal.
"You must be starving. Eat more to replenish your body." Rong Yu gave her dishes, which were filled with Nan Xi's favorite flavors. "Have a good rest today. When Lin Jia comes over, she will stay with you in the palace." You talk, I'll go to the palace to take care of something."
Nan Xi nodded: "Just go and do your work and don't worry about me."
"What are you talking about?" Rong Yu was dissatisfied, "Is there anything in this world that is more important than you?"
Nan Xi was silent for a moment and glanced at him casually: "Why are you so excited?"
"Xi'er."
"You are not more important than me, you have to do what you should do." Nan Xi said, "Just like in my heart, no one in the world is more important than you, so can I just ignore everyone in the world?"
It sounded like a scolding tone, but his words made Rong Yu feel elated.
No one in the world is as important as him. Well, there is probably no love words in the world that are more touching than this one.
Rong Yu smiled with a smile on his brows and nodded sincerely: "Xi'er taught you the right lesson. My husband is so narrow-minded that he deserves to be punished."
"You are punished to sleep outside tonight." Nan Xi said calmly, "I was too tired last night. I need to have a good sleep tonight. No one is allowed to disturb me."
"It's my fault." Rong Yu pursed her lips and admitted her mistake sincerely, "I promise to sleep with you tonight and never mess around again."
Nan Xi snorted and believed his lies.
Just after lunch, the person who came to deliver the order brought Lin Jia over. Rong Yu arranged the defense outside the palace and asked Lin Jia to stay in the palace to talk to Nan Xi. He took Qingyang into the palace alone.
The maid quickly led Lin Jia into the palace.
Seeing Nan Xi sitting in front of the window, Lin Jia's eyes were slightly startled. He looked at her for a long time as if he was in another world, and then raised his lips and smiled softly: "Uncle and grandma."
Nan Xi chuckled: "Call me by my name, don't call me old."
Then he asked her to sit down and asked the maid to serve tea.
"When did your uncle and you come back?" Lin Jia sat down on the couch opposite her, his eyes locked on Nan Xi's increasingly calm and soft eyebrows, "Have you been in Dongling this year?"
Nan Xi took a sip of tea and nodded: "Yes."
"Becoming the Queen of Dongling?"
Nan Xi continued to nod.
Lin Jia stood up hastily: "Then do I want to meet Her Majesty the Queen?"
"Sit down." Nan Xi raised her hand, "Why are you so polite? This is not Dongling."
It's not Dongling, but she is also the regent princess of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Her status is not much inferior to that of the empress. After all, the regent prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty is a more majestic existence than the emperor. The courtiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty respect the regent far more than they respect the emperor. of respect.
Lin Jia sat down hesitantly.
"I heard that you have left the cabinet." Nan Xi looked at her eyebrows and eyes, and it was obvious that she looked haggard, "How are you doing?"
Lin Jia's expression changed slightly, she closed her eyes and was silent for a moment, then said calmly: "You are marrying someone who is not a human being."
Nan Xi put down the tea cup and said calmly: "Is the Huo family treating you badly?"
"Isn't it just bad?" Lin Jia smiled bitterly, "I just hate that I don't have the courage you did back then, otherwise how could I have put myself in such a situation? Sometimes when I'm pushed into a hurry, I really wish I could die with the Huo family. ”
Nan Xi frowned: "Can you tell me about it?"
"There's nothing I can't say." Lin Jia sighed self-deprecatingly, her tone calm, "Now all the noble ladies in the imperial capital are watching my joke. No one knows that I married a romantic dandy and have a mother-in-law. He is domineering and domineering all day long, wishing he could sit on top of me and let me kneel down and serve their whole family like a slave. From time to time, he would remind me to humbly please my husband... This life is like a normal one. It’s like a nightmare, and it makes me exhausted.”
After a slight pause in her tone, she said calmly: "But I am also the princess of the royal family. How can he, the Huo family, humiliate me? I would rather die than bow down to them."
Nan Xi said: "Do you still plan to continue living with such a man?"
"What kind of life do you have?" Lin Jia sneered, "Even if all the men in the world die, I can't live with him forever."
Nan Xi raised her eyes and looked at her quietly.
"I want to reconcile." Lin Jia's tone was firm, but with a hint of helpless sadness, "To be precise, I want to imitate your momentum and divorce him directly, but I have no power, mother. I am not allowed to make such an unorthodox decision. Let alone divorcing my husband, even getting divorced is a very difficult matter. "
Nan Xi pondered for a moment: "Have you thought about it, won't you regret it after the divorce?"
"I only regret it when my brain is wet." Lin Jia said, "Since we got married, Huo Yang and I have not consummated our marriage."
