Mei Rui didn't think that she really wanted to go to Nanya, but stopped the leader when she looked at the guards on the road, and asked kindly: "May I ask where Commander Zhao is on duty today?" ”

The leading guard glanced at her curiously, "You are Aunt Mei Rui in the Imperial Palace?" ”

Mei Rui didn't expect that she was already so famous, and she could casually meet people who knew her, so she couldn't help but feel more friendly, "Exactly, please also ask the Xunwei General Zhao to tell me where to tell me, it's hard work." ”

"No, no." Xun Wei has a good relationship with Zhao Chun, I know that Zhao Chun has always had such a childhood sweetheart, the first few times I just saw it from afar, and I didn't see it very really, but now I can see the real person, Xun Wei couldn't hold it back in his heart, and hugged his fist to her: "I heard that Yuan Liang has asked the Queen Mother for marriage?" That's here to congratulate in advance. ”

Mei Rui tugged at the corners of her mouth, and was too lazy to explain more to this Xun Wei, and she was so confused with perfunctory strength, Xun Wei said to her: "Yuan Liang is afraid that he is on the right silver platform!" ”

After expressing her gratitude, Mei Rui turned around and went to the right silver gate, and sure enough, she saw Zhao Chun, Zhao Chun looked at the appearance of lack of energy, leaning there crookedly and idle, Mei Rui stepped forward and frowned at him: "I haven't seen you for a few days, how can the commander be so decadent?" ”

Zhao Chun woke up suddenly, and only after standing up straight did he see that it was her, and he didn't know what to do to her for a while, so he could only stand there and stare at her, Mei Rui tucked her sleeves, and her expression was cold: "I'm asking Commander Zhao what to say?" ”

She probably knew it, I heard that she was summoned to Xingqing as soon as she entered the palace today, and the thing that King Xiang proposed to him was mostly done, Zhao Chun's mind was a little complicated, and he didn't look like she was happy, and opened her mouth tentatively: "Where are you from?" ”

"Xingqing Palace." She blurted out, as he guessed, Zhao Chun licked the corners of his mouth, and now it was the blue and black that had not slept well in the past few days, and he no longer talked to her: "You know?" ”

"The commander has such a great ability, and he has set a life for me like this," Mei Rui smiled softer, "I really want to thank the commander." ”

Saying that she was going to thank him, Zhao Chun panicked instantly, he knew something about her temper, she never liked to describe her lust and inwardness, the more kind she laughed, the more intense the anger in her heart burned, Zhao Chun grabbed her long wrist, clear and thin, as if it would be broken with a little force, overlapping with the memory of the previous years when he was still in Zhao's mansion, he said dumbly: "You are so clear that I am uncomfortable, do you look down on me so much?" ”

"It's not that I don't look down on the commander," she was still very calm, and her tone didn't have any twists and turns, "It's that the commander's grace is too heavy, I'm afraid I won't be clean in my life." ”

"Don't be like me." The right Yintai Gate was full of people, Zhao Chun simply pulled her to a secluded place, and his spirit was gone, he smiled bitterly and said to her: "Sister Rui, I'm worried that you are confused, I want to pull you, you don't know what you will become if you go on like this, I am for your good, and I really like you." ”

"The so-called good of the commander is to marry me back to the Zhao Mansion?" She calmly looked back at his gaze, and nothing fell in her eyes, "It is indeed a very good plan, Zhao Shangshu has not looked down on my family background since the past, and has repeatedly told me that the commander will join the army in the future to make meritorious contributions, so naturally he wants to marry the daughter of the right family, my parents are dead, there is no high hall to worship, and the commander is naturally not a good match." Even though the friendship of childhood is still there, and the Commander will never forget it, and he swears to be good to me, but will the Commander be like this for a long time? Did the orchid in the Yixiang Garden hear the same thing from the mouth of the commander? ”

She didn't even beg, her words were as sharp as the tip of a spotless knife, "The Commander is really the most merciful person in the world, killing people invisibly and destroying people silently." ”

"I like you, isn't that enough?" Zhao Chun suppressed his voice, "How can I become the one who destroys you, being with Lu Zhi is a dead end, I can't bear to see you die with him in the future without a place to be buried." Settle off with him earlier, don't be afraid of the others, I will protect you. His voice trembled, "How can you suspect that I am attentive to you, you know, I have always liked you." ”

She nodded, "I know, but the commander also likes others, my father and aunt are a couple for life, so I can't adapt to the three wives and four concubines in the Houmen mansion, and I'm too lazy to face these." With the orchid of Yixiangyuan, there may be the incense of the Red Sleeve Building, and there will also be those noble-born noble-born daughters of the scholars, these are all brought to me with the likes of the commander, complicated and trivial, I feel scared when I think about it. Rather than facing this, I would rather die with the Protectors and have no place to bury. ”

Zhao Chun's eyes widened, as if in disbelief, and pushed her against the wall: "Do you know what you're talking about?" He's a eunuch, how can you think of him like that? There was still a little blue and white on his face, and he breathed a sigh of relief, "Or are you saying that I can't even compare to a eunuch?" ”

She was slammed against the wall by Zhao Chun, her back was faintly painful, she gasped, and looked back at him, "Does the commander think he can compare?" ”

He replied assummatically: "How can it not be compared?" ”

Mei Rui asked again: "Then the commander thinks that he can compare to the protectors?" ”

Such a question made Zhao Chun stunned, a manly man, naturally he should put aside his skin and make a contribution, but now in terms of official position and power, who in the court can match Lu Zhen, Zhao Chun gritted his teeth and simply played a fool: "Just because I am a real man!" ”

Unexpectedly, it was exchanged for Mei Rui's chuckle, which seemed to be mocking and sarcastic, and the corners of her mouth had a very distinct ridicule: "I'm afraid that the commander also thinks that he is the only one who is better than the protectors?" ”

"It's a pity, this point is useless in my eyes," Mei Rui stretched out her hand and pushed, without much strength, but she also pushed Zhao Chun away, with contempt in her eyes, "Does the commander think that forced marriage is done by a man?" Marrying me is about a matter that the commander himself has decided privately, and he has not explained it to Zhao Shangshu and his wife, regardless of the orders of his parents, what is waiting for me after I enter the door of the Zhao Mansion, and the commander must not have thought about me, is this also what a man did? can't bear the promise of a couple for a lifetime, and live up to the lives of others in vain, can it be regarded as what a man does? ”

Zhao Chun stood there with his eyes distracted, Mei Rui let out this breath, and her slightly sharp voice also eased down, still with a pleasant appearance, and she was gentle: "I'm not here to quarrel with the commander today, I just want the commander to think clearly, since the commander said that he likes me, then he must know that he likes these two words, not just talking." Many things in the world are not something that can be done by wishful thinking on the part of the Commander, I have called the Commander a brother, and I don't want to ruin this friendship of my youth, if I end up with the Commander in the future, I will not even have this only remaining thought, is this what the Commander wants to see? ”

Zhao Chun was dumbfounded, and slowly pulled up a wry smile, "I don't want to." ”

"In that case," Mei Rui looked at him quietly, "and ask the commander to go and explain to the Queen Mother in person, and withdraw the will to give marriage." ”
