Xie Ning originally thought that because the emperor didn't say anything when he saw her, maybe Chen Jieyu wasn't stupid enough to file a complaint.
Who would have thought that she would just file a lawsuit.
The emperor suddenly asked at this time, Xie Ning was very surprised, and for a moment he really didn't know what to say.
"You know why she sued you?"
The emperor asked again, and Xie Ning nodded.
"Then you don't want to defend yourself."
Xie Ning was stunned for a moment, lowered his head and thought for a moment: "I don't know what to say."
"It doesn't matter, I'll wait for you to think about it and then talk about it after you think about it."
But she really didn't know what to say.
After being silent for a while, Xie Ning spoke.
But what she said surprised the emperor.
She didn't even mention the camellia viewing that day, nor did she mention a word about Chen Jieyu.
She talked about what happened before entering the palace.
"My concubine once went to work with my uncle for two years.
When I returned to my hometown, I changed to the waterway near Rongcheng.
The boat canopies were all painted black.
They were said to be so strong that they would not be soaked in the rain.
The color of the sails It was also old.
Because of the rain, we stayed in a small inn west of the city gate for three days. " The emperor asked: "How old were you at that time?"
"I must have been seven or eight years old that year," Xie Ning thought for a while, "I don't remember clearly."
Although the emperor didn't know why Xie Ning mentioned the past nearly ten years ago, he found her words very touching and attracted him to want to know what happened next.
"In the past three days, my uncle also made friends with someone.
He was an old man who retired and returned to his hometown.
He got along well with him.
The two of them played chess, drank tea, and even borrowed fishing rods and raincoats from somewhere.
I had to go fishing in the rain, but I didn't catch a single fish. , and even got wet.
My concubine also went there that day.
It was raining on the ferry, and no one could be seen that day.
Not a single boat was parked there.
When I came back, my aunt was angry and said that my uncle would lead me to do nonsense.
We were forced to quickly change our clothes and drink ginger soup.”
"What happened later" "The weather cleared up the next day, and everyone left the shop and went their separate ways.
We carried the old gentleman all the way south, and we never heard from him again."
Xie Ning didn't know how he remembered what happened at that time.
She obviously forgot about that incident soon after, because she encountered many new things during the trip, which were much more interesting than that.
Going fishing in the rain was actually a very boring thing for a child, and she couldn't sit still.
But Xie Ning remembered that she wore a pair of Xiaotang clogs that day and stepped on the water-filled bluestone floor.
The water in the puddles splashed when she stepped on it, and the bottom of the clogs made a regular and crisp sound when hitting the stone slabs.
The experience of treading water in the rain was the most profound part of her memory.
The emperor glanced at her.
"Finished" Xie Ning nodded.
Even though the emperor was well-informed, he was also amused by her response.
"Does your answer have anything to do with my question?"
Xie Ning shook his head honestly: "It doesn't matter.
Your Majesty, I have told you a story, so please stop asking about flower viewing."

This also comes with bargaining The emperor shook his head and said with a smile: "The story is good.
After hearing what you said, I want to see the ferry in the rain and go fishing in the rain.
But if I ask you, you also have to answer." " Xie Ning grimaced, the emperor was really hard to deceive.
"Actually, I have also thought about explaining this matter to the emperor first."
Xie Ning felt very awkward, his head hung slightly, and his eyes fell on the green and warm tea cup.
The emperor leaned forward and asked, "How did you want to explain it at that time?"
Is it her imagination?
Why does the emperor feel so expectant in his tone?
Xie Ning also thought about how to tell the emperor about this matter.
According to Qing He, he must emphasize that he was pitiful, helpless and innocent.
Everything was caused by Chen Jieyu.
She was overbearing and arrogant.
She bullied others first.
It was not Xie's fault at all.
Ning's body.
Qing He also told her that men would not like women who are too strong, but women who can act coquettishly will always have more sympathy.
But Xie Ning had always had a calm temperament and was not very good at talking.
She could never imagine herself twisting her body in front of the emperor and saying something like "The emperor wants to make the decision for me, my concubine."
Chen Jieyu must have said it out loud.
Xie Ning could imagine how she would pretend to be aggrieved in front of the emperor and put all the blame on others.
"Concubine, concubine" Xie Ning's face was so anxious that he almost turned red, but he couldn't say anything.
The emperor watched her head lower and lower, and after waiting for a long time, Xie Ning said vaguely: "I didn't mean it, please don't be angry.
Even if you have to punish me, the punishment must be light. " The emperor suddenly laughed out loud.
He smiled so freely and wantonly.
While smiling, he pushed the tea table away, grabbed Xie Ning's hand and moved forward.
Xie Ning was completely unprepared and plunged into the emperor's arms.
The emperor's chest was shaking with laughter, and with his ears pressed against it, the laughter he heard was completely different from just now.
The laughter she heard now seemed to be deeper and mellower, and it made her heart beat wildly.
"Chen Jieyu said your mouth is as sharp as a knife, but why didn't I notice it?"
Xie Ning stuttered in defense: "I am not like a knife.
That is, I do not want to bully or contradict others, but I cannot let others bully me casually."
Perhaps the emperor had finally laughed enough.
He stopped, holding her in his arms, and gently lifted her chin with his other hand.
Xie Ning passively raised his head and met the emperor's gaze.
The distance between them was so close that she even saw her own stunned look in the emperor's dark eyes.
"You were so eloquent when you were with Chen Jieyu, but why did you become so clumsy when you were in front of me?"
does she have Hmm, it seems there is But she still couldn't answer the emperor's question.
The emperor pressed again: "Say it."
"Concubine, concubine."
Xie Ning's face was hot.
He didn't need to look in the mirror to know that his face would be red: "I'm afraid that if I say the wrong thing, the emperor will blame me."
"wrong."
Why is this wrong?
She is telling the truth.
Maybe not everything from my heart, but certainly not a lie.

"Think again, why?"
The emperor came closer.
When he spoke, his lips were almost touching hers.
Xie Ning was so nervous that she pursed her lips and held her breath.
Xie Ning's head seemed to be filled with mud, boiled by the abnormal body temperature, bubbling and bubbling.
He couldn't think of anything, and he couldn't understand anything clearly.
"Concubine, I am afraid that the emperor will be unhappy."
"Well, is there anything else?"
Is there anything else?
Xie Ning really couldn’t think of anything.
His breath blew against her skin, making the tip of her nose and lips itch.
The emperor's eyes were so dark and deep, just like the night sky, almost sucking people in.
Xie Ning felt dizzy under his gaze.
She swayed slightly, and her lips moved up to meet the emperor's lips as if she had a consciousness of her own
