Chapter 567: What a face
Next to An Duyu's grave at night, Wang Xunyi was still sitting silently, but there were already several bottles of wine in front of him.
He was also flushed, his eyes were misty, and he was full of alcohol. Just sitting there alone, drinking and not wanting to say anything.
After a long time, maybe he drank too much and couldn't resist the stamina of this wine, and the whole person immediately went to the ground, his body facing up, his eyes were worried, and his mouth was also confused and didn't know what he was talking about, but sometimes he was silent and calm, and sometimes he laughed madly, which made people feel pity when he saw it.
Looking at this vast starry sky, it was like his incomparably deep eyes, but in his eyes, at this moment, the inexplicable blood of the past was gone, and all he could see was helplessness.
He himself smiled bitterly, as if he was laughing at his current self, and he also had some disgust in the face of his inability to control his own destiny.
The bottle in his hand did not loosen, constantly pouring wine on his tired face, opening his mouth, sticking out his tongue, greedily sucking every drop of wine on his face, followed by a meaningless and weak smile.
The sky is beautiful, and the cold rain began to fall in the endless starry sky, sprinkled on the earth, splashing on Wang Xunyi's body, he didn't have any movement, he didn't have any willingness to resist, but he lay on the ground to his heart's content, spread his arms, just like a puddle of mud, letting all the rain want him to splash over, but his face showed a hearty feeling, and the smile on his face involuntarily emerged.
Turning sideways and looking at the small mound of dirt piled up on the side, he was thoughtful, and his body trembled violently.
It's raining in winter, it's too cold and cold......
Wang Xunyi's heart was already infected at this moment, he trembled, gradually curled himself up, and slowly approached the mound on the side little by little, the closer he got, the more relaxed the expression on his face became.
At last, when his face finally touched the already wet dirt in the mound, he also stopped, sleepy-eyed, closed his eyes very slowly, let the darkness take over everything in front of him, and the last glimmer of light was gone, and he planned to sleep there.
The icy muddy water on the mound of soil continued to slide down from the top, walking on Wang Xunyi's cheeks, leaving traces of filth, but he remained unmoved.
I don't know how long it rained that night, but by the next morning, the signs of rain could still be clearly seen.
Wang Xunyi himself also woke up early, perhaps it should be said that he did not fall asleep at all, but closed his eyes by himself, isolated himself from the whole world, and stubbornly stayed there, unwilling to leave.
Back in the room, Yafu had been waiting here for a long time at this time, and when she saw Wang Xunyi coming back, she was also trembling in her heart, this was the first time she had seen Wang Xunyi in this way.
She hurriedly ignored Wang Xunyi in front of her, and quickly ran out of the room to find some subordinates, prepare hot water, change clothes, etc.
She also took out a handkerchief, stood in front of Wang Xunyi, raised her head and helped Wang Xunyi wipe the dirty place little by little, Wang Xunyi didn't have any reaction, just looked at the woman in front of her without any expression.
Her eyes were red and bloodshot, and the bags under her eyes were also very black and obvious, it could be seen that Yafu didn't sleep all night last night, and according to her clothes that were already damp, she could imagine that Yafu didn't sleep all night last night, but stayed in a place where Wang Xunyi didn't find it and observed silently, unwilling to disturb.
After getting everything done, Wang Xunyi came to the gate of the mansion, looked at everything that had been washed by the rain, took a deep breath, and felt very cold, which made the whole person feel energetic. Reach out and let your palms be in close contact with the rain, and feel the footsteps and temperature of winter as it leaves...... The rain has the breath of spring and the slightest warmth, but it still retains a little coldness of winter.
She hurriedly came behind Wang Xunyi, put the paper umbrella in front of him, looked at his hesitant face, and said with a little cry: "Take the umbrella, lest it ......rain when you come back" From beginning to end, she never looked up at Wang Xunyi, but Wang Xunyi has always been low, looking at Yafu, slightly hesitantly turned the paper umbrella in her hand, without saying much, turned around and left.
Outside the main hall, civil and military officials are waiting for the early dynasty. Seeing Wang Xunyi today, everyone was naturally overjoyed, and they rushed to Wang Xunyi's face, scrambling to say goodbye, he himself was quite unfazed, in the face of everyone's joy, he didn't have any reaction, and he didn't make any response, but walked straight to the closed door of the palace, waiting silently.
And Long Jun was also standing behind Wang Xunyi, although he didn't speak, but the aura of not being angry and arrogant made everyone present shocked, and they didn't want to get closer to Wang Xunyi.
Just as everyone was talking, the door of the temple slowly opened.
In an instant, all the civil and military officials immediately sorted out their images, standing in two rows, Wang Xunyi stood at the front and raised his head, looking at Nan Ke Lin who was sitting on the throne in the hall in the distance, and Nan Ke Lin was also watching him on the other side.
"Go to court!" shouted in the hall.
Wang Xunyi led the civil and military officials into the main hall.
After saluting, Nan Ke Lin was about to open his mouth to ask the civil and military officials if they had important things to tell, but before he could speak, a person rushed out of the queue, and he was already kneeling on the top of the temple steps and said: "Qiyu monarch, do your subordinates have something to ask for?"
The person who asked for it was Wang Xunyi.
Nan Ke was slightly puzzled, and didn't understand what Wang Xunyi wanted, so he vigilantly and tentatively said: "Say it!"
Wang Xunyi slowly lowered his head, his hands were clenched tightly, he kept trembling, and his voice was extremely unsteady, "Subordinate...... Subordinate......"
For some reason, everyone present pricked up their ears, and their bodies subconsciously leaned slightly in the direction of Wang Xunyi, so that they could hear more clearly.
Nan Ke Lin was a little impatient, and was about to open his mouth to make trouble, Wang Xunyi did suddenly kneel and bow, and his head fell directly under the palace steps with a "bang" and said: "Subordinate, I want to ask for marriage!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was shocked, and everyone present knew that Wang Xunyi had lost his wife for only a few months, but now he suddenly wanted to ask for marriage, which was really unreasonable and shameful!
Everyone present also talked about it and looked at each other.
Although Nan Ke Lin wanted to marry today, he was also taken aback by Wang Xunyi's sudden request to ask for marriage, and said in confusion: "With whom?"
Wang Xunyi knelt down at the foot of the temple steps, trembling all over, with an extremely clear cry, sobbing and saying, "The people in the house, Yafu!"
As soon as these words came out, the civil and military officials were even more restless, and even when someone immediately objected: "Wang Xunyi is an extremely important person in our dynasty, how can he marry a subordinate as a wife, it's a great shame!"
Some people also took advantage of the topic to play, wanting to take the opportunity to hit Wang Xunyi, so they said righteously, "The military teacher has lost his wife for only a few months, but now he takes the initiative to marry someone from the house, can you know the etiquette, righteousness and shame?"
For a while, Wang Xunyi became the target of everyone, and he was embarrassed by everyone present, sour words, and severe reprimands, at this moment, it was like a mountain, all of which were accumulated on Wang Xunyi's body, and he never raised his head, and kept kneeling in place, sobbing while suffering silently alone.
Nan Ke Lin did not speak immediately, but waited quietly to see the changes, and the ministers saw that the monarch did not react, and they became even more violent, and their words were extremely ugly, and some people even bluntly said: "Wang Xunyi, what kind of face do you have to see your ancestors, ......" and other extremely ugly and vulgar words.
"Shut up!" Nan Ke Lin suddenly reprimanded loudly.
Everyone immediately stopped abruptly, no longer making any movements or words, and lowered their heads one after another.
Nan Ke Lin looked around at the ministers in front of him, and said lightly: "Yafu is my sister-in-law, what's wrong with marrying a military advisor?"
Obviously, Nan Ke Lian's question was aimed at the opposing ministers present, and everyone choked up when they heard this question, and they didn't know how to answer.
Seeing this, Nan Ke Lin also looked at Wang Xunyi and waved his big hand and said, "Yes!", but even if Nan Ke Lin achieved his goal, for some reason, his face never showed a little happiness.
Looking at Wang Xunyi's always low head, Nan Ke Lin didn't know what to do.
"Congratulations to Master Commander!" one person took the lead in congratulating Wang Xunyi.
"Congratulations to the military master!" randomly, all the civil and military officials present congratulated in unison.
But at this moment, Wang Xunyi had a low head, trying his best to restrain his emotions, but he was still suffocating and crying into a tearful person......
