After becoming a concubine, she lived a miserable life every day.

Chapter 223 Chu Qingqing

Not to mention this, the legitimate son of Prince Rui, that is, the Crown Prince, is much stronger than the heirs of Prince Su's Mansion. This is one point that Prince Su will never be able to compare with Prince Rui.

In addition, the Rui Wang Mansion has Qi You, the ultimate killer, who is His Majesty's sweetheart and Concubine Xian's favorite. The existence of this person is a great help to Rui Wang on the road to succession. This is something that all ministers know tacitly, so between Rui Wang and Su Wang, most people still prefer Rui Wang.

Qiao Rongjin had learned all this news in the past year. Her son was a hot commodity among the ministers. Thinking of the changes in her son over the past year, Qiao Rongjin's eyes flashed with pride. Her son's abilities were getting stronger and stronger. She also discovered certain information that her son revealed from time to time. Her son seemed to be doing something she didn't know about. From Zhu Yun who had been going out from time to time in the past year, Zhu Ying was almost nowhere to be seen, and occasionally asked her for money, all of which were in the amount of ten or twenty thousand yuan in silver notes. And Xiao Yuanzi was sent out by her son a year ago and rarely came back. All these things showed that her son was doing something in secret.

Qiao Rongjin knew about it, but never asked. When it was time to tell, his son would naturally tell him. Besides, it wasn't like he was hiding something from her, as he was revealing a little bit to her.

Qiao Rongjin could only sigh that her son was indeed a member of the royal family and the villain in the novel. His intelligence and abilities were beyond the reach of others. She, a useless piece of shit, could only wait to enjoy the good life.

Thinking of this, Qiao Rongjin narrowed his eyes and smiled.

Soon, it was time for dinner. When Qiao Rongjin was about to get up, he saw Qinglian coming over.

"Master, you've been sitting here for so long, what if you catch a cold?" The young master would be angry, wouldn't he? Qinglian didn't say this.

"I'm not that delicate. Let's go. I'm hungry too."

My son should be home soon.

However, when Qiao Rongjin was sitting at the dinner table waiting for people to come back, he not only saw his son, but also Prince Rui whom he had not seen for a long time.

Yes, she hadn't seen Prince Rui for a long time. Ever since he took in three beautiful concubines half a year ago, he came to her Yunshen Pavilion less and less frequently, and even stopped coming later. In this regard, Qiao Rongjin said that it was just right that he didn't come, as she was happy not to have to serve anyone.

The night before she was thinking about taking a concubine into the palace, Qiao Rongjin was speechless when asked by Prince Rui.

"Ajin, would you be angry if I took a concubine?"

"Ajin, taking a concubine is my last resort, but remember, I only have you in my heart, no one else. Please don't ignore me from now on, okay?"

"Ajin, I love you. I have never loved anyone so much in my life."

……

That night, Prince Rui talked to himself for a long time. At first, Qiao Rongjin would respond out of politeness, but later he simply stopped responding.

It was quite funny when I thought about it later. After all, whether Prince Rui took a concubine or not had nothing to do with her. Moreover, in the two years since I came here, this guy had not forgotten to stay overnight in other courtyards. Why did he have to tell me about taking a concubine? If he wanted to, he could just take one.

Thinking about the three beauties this guy took in, Qiao Rongjin was so envious. Those three beauties were really beautiful, especially one of them, Chu Qingqing, who looked better than her. Her figure was really, really, she was salivating at the sight of her. Also, her temperament was really soft, and her voice was very nice, but she was a little crybaby. However, this was not a shortcoming, and she was even more lovable when she cried. No wonder King Rui was obsessed with her. She was a woman, and she couldn't help but pay attention to her. She only hated that this person was not by her side, otherwise, she couldn't believe how happy she would be when she saw him every day. Alas! Such a pleasing beauty fell into the hands of King Rui. Thinking about it, Qiao Rongjin felt a little regretful.

Then he thought of Chen's incredulous reaction when Chu Qingqing first came to the palace, and the sarcastic words she said to him later, as well as the friction between Chen and Chu Qingqing later, which made Qiao Rongjin roughly guess what happened.

This Chu Qingqing should be the most beloved person of King Rui in the previous life. That’s why Chen was so defensive when she saw her, and she also wanted her to be defensive too, so she said those words.

Thinking about what Chen said, "Qiao Rongjin, guess, if you and Chu Qingqing were both kidnapped by the enemy, who would Qi Heng save first?"

Who will be saved? Isn't it obvious? Now everyone knows that Chu Qingqing is the most tender piece of meat in the heart of His Royal Highness Prince Rui.

Of course, she thought so, but she couldn't say it like that. "There is no if in the world. Are you too idle to do anything? Isn't it better to focus on something else every day?"

She really didn't understand Chen, and left the scene while facing Chen's puzzled look.

"Mom?" Qi You saw that his mother didn't respond for a long time and was still in a daze. He looked at the uninvited guest beside him and called out.

Qiao Rongjin reacted quickly after hearing the voice.

Seeing his son's bright and clear eyes filled with himself, a smile broke out on his face involuntarily.

"Look, you've been distracted a lot lately. Are you hungry? Come and eat." After saying this, she seemed to see Prince Rui and bowed to him with a smile, "I'm here to see Your Majesty. If Your Majesty hasn't eaten yet, how about we eat together?"

In order to wait for his son to finish school, he usually eats later than other people in the mansion. Looking at Prince Rui's appearance, it doesn't look like he just returned home. After all, he has changed his clothes.

Now, after seeing King Rui again after several months, Qiao Rongjin still felt a little dazed and uncomfortable.

Prince Rui was a little embarrassed to see Qiao Rongjin after several months. He hadn't been to Yunshen Pavilion for a long time, and he still felt a little uncomfortable when he suddenly saw Qiao Rongjin. Today, he suddenly had the urge to come and visit her. She was still as beautiful as before, smiling at him as always, and as charming as before without realizing it. Prince Rui felt even more guilty.

"...Ajin." He shouted these two words after a long while.

Hearing this, Qiao Rongjin smiled and said, "Hmm? Your Highness, you haven't eaten yet? If you haven't eaten yet, then eat with me and my son. Qinglian, bring another pair of bowls and chopsticks."

In fact, Prince Rui, who had already eaten at Xuezhuju, could only smile and say, "Ajin, you guessed me right. I really haven't had dinner yet."

When Qi You heard this, a hint of sarcasm flashed in his lowered eyes. This man just came from the direction of Xuezhuju. It would be strange if he didn't eat. What a hypocritical man from Zhenyi Pavilion.

However, he doesn't care what he is like. His mother doesn't care about him anyway. If his mother doesn't care, he naturally won't care.

"Then eat more, Your Majesty."

Qiao Rongjin ate as if no one was around, picking up food for her son from time to time, and occasionally Qi You would pick up food for her too.

The warm atmosphere between mother and son is beyond the reach of others.
