171.Chapter 171

Before Princess Changning left the Anren Palace, Li Hui caught up with her. However, what about catching up? He tightened his eyebrows and repeatedly opened his mouth to speak, but he never said anything, not knowing how to comfort her. After all, he has never had the experience of turning against his family because of personal affairs, and he hesitated because of this possibility-

Support her to be in harmony with the prince and confront Queen Du? Or even break with Empress Du? No, by no means. The relationship between the mother and daughter is extremely deep, and if they turn against each other because of this, it will be a almost fatal wound for them. Moreover, the saint would never agree to change the marriage contract. If there is a rift between father and daughter, mother and daughter, so that Yang Xianfei and Yuan Shufei can find an opportunity to continue to separate, it will be a catastrophe.

Forcing her to separate from the prince? Ignore her pain and suffering? No, he couldn't either. Comparing his heart to his heart, if he will never be able to see the prince again in this life, he must also feel that he has lost the most important fate in this life. Even if he was reborn, even if he kept his family's happiness, his own life was still boring.

At this moment, Princess Changning still hadn't calmed down, her face was stained with tears, and her eyes were full of pain and helplessness. Even though she has always been strong, in terms of emotional matters, she is always just a girl in the prime of her life. She finally fell in love with the young man she loved, but she was opposed by her most important relatives, and it was impossible to fulfill them - she fell from happiness to despair almost instantly.

It is clear that it is the twilight spring season, but for her, it is like a bleak and cold winter. All the beauty was eclipsed in her eyes; Her brother's caring and worried gaze didn't feel anything at all.

However, even though she looked dazed and didn't know what to do, she still didn't slow down. Li Hui heard her murmur all the time: "Grandmother...... Grandmother sued me to live

So, after boarding the tired car, she said in a hoarse voice: "Go to Zhaoling." ”

Zhaoling is the mausoleum of Emperor Taizong Wen and Empress Wende, located on Jiuzhi Mountain, one hundred and fifty miles away from Chang'an. If you take a car to Zhaoling, it will take at least two or three days. Going to the tomb in such a hurry, I didn't prepare anything, how to solve the problem of food, clothing, housing and transportation for these two or three days? How can security be ensured?

Li Hui sighed lightly in his heart, shook his head at the hesitant driving palace man, and said in a low voice: "Yue Niang, it is enough to go to Ci'en Temple." The shrines of your grandfather and grandmother are enshrined in the Temple of Grace and will also appear to bless you. "The others went to the tomb to cry and cry, just thinking about the first emperor or what grievances they had suffered, and they wanted to ask the two to be the masters; The dignified eldest princess visited the mausoleum on her own for no reason, which is enough to make many people think a little more. What's more, it is also unwise to leave Chang'an without the consent of the saint and Empress Du.

Hearing this, Princess Changning was stunned for a long time, lowered her eyes, and burst into tears: "Really? Will they appear to bless me? ”

"Of course, you're their favorite granddaughter." Li Hui said, riding a horse next to the tired Zhai car and walking slowly.

Along the way, neither cousin nor sister said anything. Princess Changning leaned against the window, clutching her long skirt tightly, silently crying; Li Hui frowned, still thinking about how to solve this matter.

When he found out that his sister was emotional, he felt that this matter was extremely tricky. But at that time, she was very confident, thinking that as long as she said that the Yan family was moved, there would definitely be a solution. At that time, none of them expected that Queen Du would learn about this so quickly, and her attitude would be so firm.

No matter what means they want to use, they probably can't escape Queen Du's sharp eyes. She must have thought carefully about all the methods they could use, and felt that it was impossible to succeed, so she was so resolute in dealing with the affection of her beloved daughter.

Yes, she has never been a ruthless aunt, but she has never been a aunt who indulges her daughter arbitrarily. No matter what she does, she weighs it and waits patiently for the right moment.

If it is purely rational, the relationship between Princess Changning will do more harm than good, and it will inevitably cause countless turmoil. That's why Queen Du chose to cut off their minds when they were still hazy. Carefully speaking, from the beginning to the end of this relationship, it was only about two months. The time is extremely short, and the pain may not last a lifetime.

However, if the word "love" is only so simple, if it is only related to the length of time they have known each other, there will not be so many infatuated men and women in this world - if you don't want to be unmoved, even if you become a husband and wife and live together for decades, you will only have different dreams in the same bed; Motivation is motivation, even if it is separated for a moment, it will haunt dreams in the bottom of the heart until death.

After arriving at the Temple of Mercy and Grace, Princess Changning went to kneel and worship the spiritual seat of the first emperor. Li Hui didn't bother her, and sat outside silently waiting. Until the β–‘β–‘ of night, Princess Changning suddenly said in the hall: "Brother, I want to live in the Temple of Mercy and Grace for a while, and I don't want to go back to the palace for the time being. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Uncles and aunts will worry about you. Li Hui continued in a low voice.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ You said, "I want to be vegetarian for my grandfather and grandmother, and then make a dojo." Princess Changning was silent for a moment, and Fang said in a dumb voice, "Now, except for Zimu, I don't want to see anyone...... However, you probably won't allow him to come to see me, so I'll be left alone. ”

Li Hui sighed helplessly, so he had to get up and leave. Of course, before leaving the Temple of Mercy and Grace, he visited Master Xuanhui and asked the Temple of Mercy and Grace to clean up a remote and quiet room for the Duke of Changning to preside over the fast. At a time like this, perhaps staying in the pure land of Buddhism can indeed gradually calm down the mind. At least, it will not be more intense than today's conflicts and contradictions.

At the same time, Wang Zixian was in the Hongnong County Mansion and told Yang Qian about what had happened in the Wang family recently. He looked sad, sighed softly from time to time, and his words were interrupted several times, obviously deeply distressed by the matter. Yang Qian's expression gradually changed from concern, to surprise, and then to expressionlessness.

"My cousin probably didn't know that the family's economic affairs had always been taken care of by his mother, who had always loved Ziling and often quietly sold the Zhuangzi shop for him to spend. If it weren't for the dowry, we wouldn't even know that the family would have been in such difficulty. I originally thought that if I sold the Zhuangzi and the shop in Huazhou, I would definitely be able to buy a good dowry of thirty-two tops. Who knows, after Ziling returned to Shangzhou, he actually said that there was still a lack of eight lifts......"

Speaking of this, Wang Zixian glanced at Yang Qian intentionally or unintentionally. Yang Qian only felt as if he had been punched in the face, and it was actually a hot pain - obviously, Wang Ziling definitely lifted him out, saying that the dowry list was for him to refer to. Everyone in the Wang family couldn't say that they thought that the dignified Hongnong County Mansion actually intended to hollow out their family property from a side branch of a declining family!

"Don't hide it from my cousin, at that time, there was only the ancestral property and a little dowry from the mother in the family, and there was really no money left. Ziling had a quarrel with his father and mother, and his mother was so angry that she was sick in bed. Xu was so anxious that he actually ...... "Speaking of this, the prince showed a sad expression, "He secretly took his mother's dowry title deed and gold and silver jewelry, and wanted to take them out and sell them." As a result, he was bumped into by the elders of the visiting clan. ”

......The eyes of the two of them met in the air, and Yang Qian showed a shocked expression very cooperatively: "How can Ziling ...... Why are you so confused? Done such a thing?! No wonder he didn't go back to Chang'an with you this time, I thought he was staying at home to continue preparing for the wedding. ”

Wang Zixian sighed: "The family rules of our Shangzhou Wang clan have always been strict, Ziling was banned by the elders, and now he is still copying the family rules in the ancestral hall." I don't know how long it will take for the patriarch to let him out, and Grandpa and his mother are also angry, and the preparations for the wedding have been delayed. After a slight pause, he continued with a face full of shame: "Actually, Grandpa told me privately that Ziling had made such a fuss, which was really insulting to the family style of the Wang family. He was a little worried, and he didn't know if the Hongnong County family could still look at such a new son-in-law. ”

Yang Qian shook his head, his demeanor was still gentle: "He also did such a thing because he was confused for a while, and it is by no means flawed." He's my brother, so I don't know what kind of person he is. You can rest assured that nothing will happen to this marriage. I will try my best to convince my grandfather and mother to postpone the marriage for a while. There are still seven mothers, eight mothers and nine mothers who have not yet been married, and they happen to be young and orderly. ”

Wang Zixian was slightly stunned, showing gratitude: "My cousin trusts Ziling so much and is willing to run for him...... I really don't know how to thank it. He never expected that even though Wang Ziling was guilty of "stealing family property", Yang Qian still didn't care about it, and wanted to fulfill this marriage. How? Is he so reluctant to give up this sister-in-law? Or, is he worried that this marriage will change, and Yang Shangshu will hit him and Yang Banniang again?

"You and my brother, why say thank you?" Yang Qian said, the corners of his lips hooked, "I'll write another letter to Ziling another day, so that he doesn't have to worry." If there is a mistake, it will be changed, and it is good to be good, he only needs to remember this lesson and not do it again in the future. "Heh, think he can't see it? The prince's dedication is hinting that he is not worthy of Prince Ling, and he must want to break off the marriage between Wang Ziling and Shi Niang, and then seek a marriage with Banniang - as long as he is there, it is absolutely impossible!!

Wang Zixian was quite satisfied with the outcome of the trip. Although the Yang family failed to take the initiative to withdraw from the marriage as expected, it was already good to postpone the marriage for a few months. Who knows what will happen in these few months? Who knows if a few months later, will the Yang family still be able to cook oil with flowers and fire like today?

However, when he quietly came to King Pu's mansion and planned to share the harvest of this trip with Li Hui, he heard Zhang Fu's mother say that he was enjoying the moon and drinking in the back garden. I heard him whispering that he would never drink again this morning, why did he suddenly become so interested in drinking? Could it be that something happened?

Wang Zixian glanced up at the waning moon in the night sky, and turned around and went to the back garden.

In the whole lake, only one corner of the pavilion is lit up. And Li Hui sat inside, cup after cup, and kept looking up and drinking the wine. In the eyes of the prince, in this dark night, he was the only one, as if all the light was gathered on his body, dazzling and dazzling.

"Xuanqi?" Obviously, he didn't drink for the moon, nor did he want to have a drink, he just wanted to get himself drunk. Wang Zixian felt a little distressed, and pushed the wine glass and wine jar aside: "What happened?" ”

Li Hui tilted his head and stared at him, his face was a little drunk, but his dark eyes were still clear. He looked at it for a long time, and suddenly smiled: "Zixian, my uncle knows." ”

The prince's heart tightened, and before he could speak, he heard him say again: "Today is Yue Niang's choice, tomorrow ...... Is it my turn tomorrow? In the eyes of the world and everyone, he had no other choice. No one will understand the pain and helplessness in his heart.

"As long as they don't know......," Wang Zixian sighed softly, "you don't have to choose. He wanted everyone in the world to know that the two of them promised each otherβ€”but perhaps this was just an unfulfilled wish.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ If we were together, how could they not know? Li Hui laughed helplessly, "Sooner or later, I'll know." Seeing that they are getting older, if the marriage has not been decided for a long time, who will not guess the reason? Du Niangzi's refusal to marry brought him only two or three years. What can they do in the next two or three years?
