Late in the night, a few dark clouds drifted by, wrapping the crescent moon in the sky in his arms. I leaned against the doorpost in the cloister outside the temple and gazed at the stars in the distance. From time to time, a few crickets chirped in the dark grass.

Wanyun is asleep now, and suddenly looking back, I seem to see her lying on the bed obediently through the overlapping doors and windows, and Yuan Zhize, who is sitting on the side, is carefully helping her tuck the quilt.

Recalling the scene just now when Zhi Ze carefully picked up Wanyun by the waist and walked to the bedroom, my heart felt like it had been poked by an awl, and it ached faintly.

Damn! I scolded secretly, Feng Xiaoxiao, stop thinking nonsense, they are just brother and sister, they are just brother and sister, don't make a fuss.

Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly felt a robe gently draped over my shoulders. "Zhize!" I instinctively turned around, but what I didn't want to see was Yuan Zhiyu's face with a wry smile.

"You... Are you alright?" I asked tentatively, and what I thought was going to make him feel more painful than I thought.

"I'm fine. Yuan Zhiyu sat lazily on the fence beside him, letting the evening breeze blow his messy hair.

At this time, the moon finally broke free from the embrace of the dark clouds, and once again sprinkled its gentle light on the earth, I looked at the young man in front of me through the hazy moonlight, at this time, his former domineering spirit had long disappeared without a trace, and the messy hair on the temples set off a dashing temperament.

"Hey... How did you catch Wanyun, didn't she hate you before?" The long silence made me feel uncomfortable, and I began to take the initiative to find some light topics to talk to him.

"It's just running to her house every day, what else can I do, except that I have thicker skin than ordinary people, I may not have any advantages. ”

"Oh, I see, no wonder you always said that you had something to do a few days ago, it turned out that you went to ask for your daughter-in-law. "I immediately understood the reason why Yuan Zhiyu always dragged out in Hanzhong in those days.

Yuan Zhiyu's mood seemed to be gradually getting better, and he smiled embarrassedly and said, "Fortunately, Sister Yun agreed to me, otherwise I'm really sorry for those horses who are half tired and half dead." ”

"Sister-in-law, actually, I should thank you. ”

"Thank me, why?" Yuan Zhiyu's sudden words surprised me very much, I didn't do anything, why did he want to thank me.

"If it weren't for the eldest brother who fell in love with you, maybe Sister Yun would never have agreed to me in her life. Yuan Zhiyu looked at the dark world in the distance and said faintly: "Although Yun Mei still has an old affection for her eldest brother now, I am confident that I can win her heart!" In an instant, Yuan Zhiyu seemed to be a different person, and a confident smile appeared on his face again.

"What are you talking about, so happy!" A steady footstep came from behind him, and Zhi Ze walked over slowly.

"Zhize, has Wanyun fallen asleep?" I hurriedly got up and stepped forward.

"Don't worry, she's already asleep. Zhi Ze smiled at me, turned around and came to Yuan Zhiyu, patted him on the shoulder, and said slightly apologetically: "Zhiyu, don't take tonight's matter to heart, Wanyun just got drunk and said a few nonsense." ”

"Brother, I know all about this, and you don't have to worry about it. Hearing it, Yuan Zhiyu wanted to make himself as generous as possible.

"That's good," Yuan Zhize nodded slightly and said, "Then we'll go back first, and we'll go to the palace tomorrow to meet my father." Xiaoxiao, let's go!"

Led by a team of palace lanterns, Yuan Zhize and I went out to board the carriage and said goodbye to Yuan Zhiyu and left.

At this time, it was the middle of the night, the street was already empty, the carriage was much faster than when it came, snuggled in Yuan Zhize's warm embrace, I felt a wave of sleepiness coming, and my eyelids couldn't stop drooping downward.

"If you're sleepy, go to bed early, and I'll carry you back. Yuan Zhize lowered his head and pecked the tip of my nose lightly, and said softly. "Okay," I replied in a daze, and fell into a deep sleep.

As I was going to enter the palace, I got up early the next day, and with the help of the maids, I began to freshen up, and secretly wondered which clothes to wear. It is said that the emperor advocates frugality, and it seems that it is better to dress modestly.

It just happened that Zhi Ze had just gotten up, and when he saw me changing into that light blue coat, he couldn't help nodding frequently: "It's good to wear this, and it makes you dignified and generous." ”

"Really?" I couldn't help but be overjoyed when I got my husband's compliment, and I stood in front of the bronze mirror and turned back and forth lightly.

Coldly, a pair of big hands hugged me from behind, and an angular face appeared in the bronze mirror in front of me, although the face was full of fatigue when I first woke up, but I couldn't hide the compelling heroic spirit at all.

"Xiaoxiao, you are so beautiful. Yuan Zhize's snort brushed past my ears, making me feel a little red and hot.

"Okay, you should prepare quickly, don't let the emperor wait for us. I pulled Zhize to the bench in front of the mirror and sat down, picked up the comb, and carefully combed his hair.

Seeing that I looked impatient, Yuan Zhize couldn't help but quip: "Look at you in a hurry, why are you in such a hurry... Ouch!"

I don't know if it was because I was too nervous or because I was too excited, my hand holding the comb kept shaking, and I accidentally hurt Yuan Zhize, and the person in the mirror immediately put on a grinning look.

It was too early, taking advantage of Yuan Zhize's time to wear court clothes, and I, accompanied by Xiao Wu and Chunyu, walked towards the palace, where the carriages and horses were ready, just waiting for us to set off.

On the way, I memorized the requirements of the Holy Rites, guessed the questions the Emperor might ask me, and the thought that I was going to meet the supreme ruler of the empire made my heart flutter like a rabbit.

"Brother Zhize, Brother Zhize..."As soon as I arrived at the door, I was silently memorizing the process of the face saint in my heart, when a figure suddenly appeared in front of me and crashed into my arms.

"Ouch!" I only felt my body shake for a while, and then I fell behind me, but fortunately, Chunyu was quick and helped me in time. The other party was also hit and fell to the ground, and the snow-white skirt was covered with a layer of dust.

"Bold! You don't have long eyes!" Before I could inquire about the situation, the other party actually came to the wicked person first, and suddenly jumped up from the ground, pointed at my nose and cursed.

"This is my palace, who let you in without being informed?" I was not to be outdone, my good mood suddenly vanished, where did the shrews come from, they actually dared to spread wild in my territory. Although Xiao Wu gently tugged at my clothes on the side, I still couldn't fight back angrily.

Taking advantage of this time, I took a good look at the woman in front of me, she looked only seventeen or eighteen years old, her facial features and figure were all admirable, and a small beauty mole at the corner of her mouth added a bit of charm to her. I thought to myself: God is really unfair to be so kind to such an uneducated person.

"Hmph..."After listening to my words, she actually sneered: "Where did you come from, a wild girl, you have eyes and no beads, you don't even know Miss Ben, this Miss Ben of the palace can enter if she wants to, who dares to stop it!"

My head buzzed, it seems that this woman is not a good stubble, otherwise she would not be so confident. When I realized that I might have gotten into trouble, I couldn't help but retreat and didn't want to continue arguing with her.

"Xiao Wu, where did this wild girl come from!" Seeing that I was short of breath, the other party was even more arrogant.

"Miss Hui's words, this is Concubine Feng of this mansion. Xiao Wu's respectful attitude proves that she has a lot of background.

"Oh?" After the other party looked me up and down, a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "It turns out that you are the vixen brought back by Brother Zhize, tsk, I didn't expect to let this girl run into it." ”

Seeing that the contradiction between the two sides was intensifying, Xiao Wu hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Niangniang, miss, the slave thinks that it was indeed a misunderstanding just now, and please don't hurt the harmony..."

"Amiable?" The woman on the other side glanced at Xiao Wu dissatisfiedly, and commanded angrily: "Xiao Wu, tell her who I am!"
