Chapter 265
The water of the pool was reflected in Cui Hengyue's eyes, and the green color dyed her eyes, like jade that had been treasured for many years.
Chen Linshen was fascinated by the sight, but immediately came to his senses after hearing Cui Hengyue's voice.
Cui Hengyue was seen with a curved eyebrows and a smile on her lips: "It's true that she is destined to be."
Upon hearing this, Chen Linshen laughed unconsciously, and then heard Cui Hengyue say, "Do you want to know about me in Yunxuan Temple?"
"Think." Chen Linshen blurted out.
Cui Hengyue turned her eyes to the surface of the Moon Pool and said quietly: "From I can remember, I have been burning fire in the kitchen of the South Palace. This is my errand. Only after completing the errand can I have food to eat.
"It's not just me, but everyone in the Nan Palace is like this. If you don't finish your errands before every meal, you will have to be hungry..."
Chen Linshen thought in his mind about how old he was when he could remember things.
It seems to be... five years old.
Unexpectedly, she had already burned a fire in the kitchen when she was five years old. It was so pitiful.
Chen Linshen suddenly felt a sense of distress in his heart. He thought of when he was five years old, he would read and read the six rituals... Although he felt pitiful at that time, he was as beautiful as he was hungry as he was often.
Cui Hengyue said that she was much happier.
"The people under the King of Chu are very fierce. They will not let me do less work just because I am young. As long as we make a little mistake, they will insult us at the least, and whip us with a whip at the worst.
"And they often add rules to us, and if we don't follow them, we will be beaten..."
As he was talking, Cui Hengyue mentioned the King of Chu. Chen Linshen immediately put away his heartache and sounded carefully.
"Before my mother passed away, I had never been to the North Palace, nor to see the King of Chu. But after my mother passed away, I was heartbroken and wanted to follow her, so I jumped down from the cliff of the South Palace.
"However, Yun Chen saved me. Later, the King of Chu probably saw that I was so pitiful, so he transferred me to the North Palace to serve as a service, and I also met the King of Chu..."
Hearing this, Chen Linshen asked anxiously: "How is the King of Chu?"
Cui Hengyue looked at him suspiciously: "Have you ever been to Yunxuan Temple? The King of Chu is your uncle, you should be very clear."
Chen Linshen's expression froze, but he soon thought of a remark: "Although I am the nephew of the King of Chu, my uncle has had a bad temper and is not willing to meet others since he got sick.
"I saw it last year, but I haven't seen it this year, so I wonder how he is in good health?"
Cui Hengyue showed a sudden enlightenment expression: "That's it. Speaking of how King Chu was doing before, I don't know very well, but I've seen him several times this year.
"The King of Chu is not in good health. I heard that when it rains, his legs hurt so much. I once heard his painful screams outside the hall.
"Uh...it sounds so pitiful..."
Cui Hengyue sighed and continued: "I used to hear people say that the King of Chu was the God of War, but I thought he was wise and powerful, and was a great hero.
"Later, after meeting the King of Chu, I realized that the God of War was once glorious, and the King of Chu is now a useless person..."
Chen Linshen pricked his ears and listened carefully, for fear of missing useful news.
"Okay, I'll tell you everything I know. Even if I'll give you the favors of Yunzhou City." Cui Hengyue breathed a sigh of relief.
Chen Linshen was stunned. Is this a favor?
"Miss Cui, I haven't told you to repay the favor yet? And I haven't said what I want. It would be too unkind if you don't say that to me and just say it to me as a favor.
"What's more, you just told me about your affairs in Yunxuan Temple, or you took the initiative to say that. This is too insignificant compared to the favor I saved you in Yunzhou City."
Cui Hengyue put away her smile: "You said you wanted to hear it just now, but now I'm not satisfied. Is Prince Changshan teasing me?
"Besides, I didn't say I asked you to save me at the beginning. You saved me by yourself. I was passively owed favors."
So, now he will passively accept her repaying favors?
Chen Linshen returned his favor so easily, and he didn't know whether he should be angry or praise her.
However, she learned about the situation of the King of Chu from her, and it would be a good reward to be able to hand in front of her father after she returned.
After Chen Linshen figured it out, he smiled and said, "Okay, just think that you have returned the favor to save Yunzhou City, but when he returned to Beijing, I saved your life outside the city."
"Don't forget, I saved you at that time." Cui Hengyue reminded him.
Chen Linshen was choked: "Uh... and before you go back to your house, I will help you promote your identity and say in public that you are my savior, and I will personally send you back to the Duke of Jingguo Mansion.
"I did all this to you to return to the Duke of Jingguo's Mansion safely, so that those who have ulterior motives will not dare to touch you.
"You always have to pay this favor, right?"
Cui Hengyue said expressionlessly: "I didn't ask you to do this. All this is your own decision. Do you want to pay it back if you take the initiative to give favors to others?
"Then everyone will be like you from now on. Wouldn't I be busy to death if I return favors?"
Seeing that Chen Linshen was choked and couldn't speak, Cui Hengyue snorted again: "Besides, I have already made arrangements for returning home. Those who have ulterior motives cannot hurt me.
"I didn't blame you for disrupting my plan, even if it's good, you dare to ask me for favors?"
Chen Linshen: "..."
A sudden arose in his heart. Chen Linshen stared at Cui Hengyue tightly and said, "You said that, I helped you find out the favor of Lu'er just now, and you won't recognize it?"
Cui Hengyue's tone was cold: "Don't recognize it."
"Okay, okay, okay."
Chen Linshen said three words "good" in a row, and his words almost squeezed out from the gaps of his teeth: "I am so passionate that I will never help you again from now on."
After saying that, he left with a slightest sleeve.
"Hmph, good intentions are taken as donkeys' liver and lungs, and dogs bite Lu Dongbin, and they don't know the good people's hearts..."
Chen Linshen's cursing words came to Cui Hengyue's ears, and she sneered silently. After Chen Linshen figured it out, he smiled and said, "Okay, just think that you have returned the favor to save Yunzhou City, but when he returned to Beijing, he was outside the city.
I saved your life again.”
"Don't forget, I saved you at that time." Cui Hengyue reminded him.
Chen Linshen was choked: "Uh... and before you go back to your house, I will help you promote your identity and say in public that you are my savior, and I will personally send you back to the Duke of Jingguo Mansion.
"I did all this to you to return to the Duke of Jingguo's Mansion safely, so that those who have ulterior motives will not dare to touch you.
"You always have to pay this favor, right?"
Cui Hengyue said expressionlessly: "I didn't ask you to do this. All this is your own decision. Do you want to pay it back if you take the initiative to give favors to others?
"Then everyone will be like you from now on. Wouldn't I be busy to death if I return favors?"
Seeing that Chen Linshen was choked and couldn't speak, Cui Hengyue snorted again: "Besides, I have already made arrangements for returning home. Those who have ulterior motives cannot hurt me.
"I didn't blame you for disrupting my plan, even if it's good, you dare to ask me for favors?"
Chen Linshen: "..."
