Chapter Twenty-Five: Returning in Vain
When I returned to the post house again, everything was as if nothing had happened, only Ah Shuang came out anxiously, "Miss, where have you been, there is no shadow in the morning, and your clothes are." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info. ”
"Ah Shuang, I'm tired." I said in despair, interrupting Ah Shuang's endless nagging, I don't blame her, I even think that this moment is happy, and people should be involved.
"Okay, Miss, go and rest, I'll prepare some food."
I was lying in bed, I was really tired, I was worried for most of the night, and I was finally able to sleep peacefully at this moment, but I could also vaguely feel that there were a pair of eyes staring at me not far away, the gaze was too strong and somewhat familiar, but I didn't have the strength to delve into it.
I didn't wake up until the evening, Ah Shuang waited for me to wash up and eat, she saw that I was a little worried but didn't know how to comfort me, I didn't want her to worry, I told her everything about last night, including the portrait of her on the city gate, I didn't want her to be grateful, I just wanted her to understand how to help me.
"Ah Shuang, you can go, you can't stay with me anymore." I said calmly.
"Miss, Ah Shuang is wrong, please don't drive Ah Shuang away." Ah Shuang cried and pulled me to beg.
"Ah Shuang," I pulled her to sit beside me and wiped her tears, "I won't stay here like a mother and complain about life, I will leave sooner or later, but I don't have the confidence to be able to get out safely with you, but I can't leave you alone, you are not just a maid, but also a sister who grew up with me since childhood, just like last night, if they use you to threaten me again, I still can't ignore it, you know, I have no relatives in this world except you and Mama Gao." ”
"Miss, woo, but Ah Shuang is reluctant to miss." Ah Shuang threw herself into my arms and cried.
"Ah Shuang, listen carefully to what I say, I will find an opportunity to let the master send you away, from today onwards, you are ready to leave at any time, go to Zhaoming after leaving, don't let them find it, if I can escape smoothly, then I will go to Zhaoming to find you." I whispered in Ah Shuang's ear, and I knew that there must be someone watching this post station at this moment.
"But Zhaoming is so old, how will Miss find me in the future?" Ah Shuang wiped his tears and said softly to me.
I smiled and helped her straighten her hair, it seemed that she had realized the situation at this time, "Don't be afraid, you find a small town to live in Zhaoming, our Ah Shuang's needlework is first-class, then open a ready-to-wear store, the name is Nishang Yuyi, I will find it eventually." ”
"Is it dangerous for you to stay here, miss?" Ah Shuang asked worriedly.
"As long as there is value in use, there is no danger." I comforted her and said that I was not sure in my heart, because I didn't know how much I had to do with the throne, and I didn't know what kind of use I had.
"Go and rest, take these silver tickets, and take them with you from tomorrow onwards, and you may not be able to use them at any time." I took out the silver ticket I had brought with me last night and handed it to Ah Shuang, and then asked her to leave, leaving me alone in a daze at the night sky.
There was no movement for a few days, there was no will to send me back to the wind, and there was no will to be punished for leaving without permission, as if nothing had happened, and it was as if I had never been to Jinhua at all, these **** also seriously considered their situation, but they still don't understand what I have to do with the Jinhua Emperor, it stands to reason that the eldest brother is used to being idle, and he should not covet the throne, the third brother is straightforward and reckless, and the father should also know that he is not suitable to be the emperor, only the second brother is suitable, It is said that there should be no battle for the throne of Jinhua, but I am not sure, because it is a battle for the throne, and anything can happen.
After a few days, the eldest brother and the third brother came, they finally brought me useful news, from the wind to the news, Jinhua and the princess Xuanyuan Qingran died of illness early, Emperor Yanfeng was deeply saddened, in order to maintain the friendly relations between Jinhua and the wind, specially sent the Emperor Fu's beloved Empress Fu Nianzhi to Jinhua and Qin, hoping to have the honor to marry a certain prince of Jinhua. At the same time, the father announced his abdication, passed the throne to Xuanyuan Yan, and gave him the emperor's thoughts, and the enthronement ceremony was carried out at the same time as the wedding seven days later. I looked at Xuanyuan Chen's mouth open and closed in astonishment, I have become the beloved daughter of General Huangfu again? Or are you a close one? Why is it always me, these people in power really play with power and deceive the world.
"Nian'er, Nian'er." The eldest brother shouted to me, "You can rest assured that you will marry the second brother, he will definitely not treat you badly as an emperor." ”
"Let's go, I want to be quiet." I turned my head and walked into the inner room, I didn't want to listen to those nonsense, why should I be at the mercy of you to marry Xuanyuan Yan, I won't.
"Nian'er," Xuanyuan Qi followed, but I said, I want to be alone for a while, I don't want to see him, I don't want to see anyone related to Xuanyuan.
"Get out." I shouted at him, I don't know how hideous my face is at the moment, how desperate my eyes are, but Xuanyuan Qi didn't say much, turned around and left.
At night I stared at the bed curtain, but I couldn't sleep, my head was very messy, I couldn't guess what happened, I didn't know what to do next, but at this time I heard a slight movement outside the window, and then someone jumped out of the window, the sound was very soft, but I could hear it, I opened my eyes nervously to see clearly, and hurriedly picked up the silver needle that had been hidden under the pillow in my hand, and then I felt him walk to my bedside.
"Nian'er," he called softly.
It was Xuanyuan Qi, and my heart suddenly relaxed.
"Nian'er." He moved closer to the bed.
"Third brother?" I asked, confused.
"Come with me." When he saw that I recognized him, he hurriedly pulled me out of bed.
"What are you doing here?" I asked.
"Since you don't like to marry the second brother, then the father can't force you, I'll take you away." He said as he pulled me along. I was quietly pulled by him, and my heart was full of emotion, but suddenly I was shocked, how could we leave so easily.
"Third brother, go quickly." I pushed Xuanyuan away.
"What's wrong?"
"You go." I already felt that I didn't have time to explain, so I just pushed him to the window, but it was still late, and there were already two figures standing outside the window.
"East to West?" The third brother said.
"The Three Princes." The two people saluted the third brother respectfully, and I could see their appearance clearly at this time, they I had seen were Xuanyuan Yan's subordinates. "Please come with your men." They continued to say respectfully to Xuanyuan Qi.
I was faintly worried, I knew that Xuanyuan Qi was not their opponent, and I pulled Xuanyuan Qi's arm tightly. "Go and let Xuanyuan Yan come." I said to the two of them, insisting on not letting Xuanyuan Qi out of my sight.
I don't know what kind of role I play in Jinhua at the moment, and I don't know what kind of trouble Xuanyuan Qi's behavior will bring to him this time, I can't help him, but I firmly believe that Xuanyuan Yan will not harm him, and now I only have one thought in my heart, and that is to see him.
Soon Xuanyuan Yan came to the post house, he stood in front of me, looking at me with a nervous face, and Xuanyuan Qi beside him who was not convinced.
"Second brother, neither you nor your father can force Nian'er, I won't allow what happened five years ago to happen again."
"Third brother, go back first, no one can force him, she will agree." He commanded at Xuanyuan Qi.
"Second brother." Xuanyuan Qi was still unwilling.
"Go back." Xuanyuan Yan was already angry.
"Third brother, go back first." I said to Xuanyuan Qi, I know that Xuanyuan Yan will not harm him, and it will not be wrong for him to go back.
"Hmph." Xuanyuan Qi glanced at Xuanyuan Yan angrily, turned his head and left, I was also slightly relieved, and then returned to his indifferent expression.
"The team to send off relatives has already set off, and they are rushing day and night, and the time should be in time." Xuanyuan Yan walked up to me and said, in a soft tone, as if he was saying to me and talking to himself, "Don't you want to marry me?" This time he looked at me and asked.
"You're my second brother." I tactfully expressed that I didn't want to marry him.
"But you've never treated me like a brother."
He's still so to the point, I really never regarded him as an older brother, I used to avoid him and avoid him, and I never thought of him after I went to the storm, maybe I really never regarded him as an older brother.
"If we had to choose one of the three, who would you choose?" He asked, continuing to look me in the eye. "Big brother or third brother? Wouldn't it be me after all? ”
At this moment, there was a flash of loneliness in his eyes, I think that was my delusion, he has been a strong man since he was a child, he is even so strong that he doesn't need hypocrisy or deception, loneliness doesn't belong to him.
"Let Ah Shuang leave, she has nothing to do with your throne." If nothing escapes his eyes, then I might as well ask openly, and I firmly believe that as long as he agrees, he will be able to do it.
"But she has something to do with you."
"I'm sure you won't give me another chance to escape." “
"Okay, Ah Shuang can dispose of it as you like, but you have to know that if I can let her go, I can naturally find her back, you should prepare to be my imperial concubine."
