Chapter 34: Will You Marry Me?
Twilight Qing was surprised, not because Yuan Xiu wanted to marry a wife, but because of the accident, how could he feel ashamed of her?
She asked, "You don't like it?" โ
How could he like it!
Yuan Xiu looked at Du Qing, a little annoyed, and said: "Aunt looks at Ning Zhao's county lord of Ning Guo's mansion well, Ning Zhao is the same age as you, I met her when I was young, she was still young at that time. โ
He was fifteen years old when he went to the northwest, and Ning Zhao was only six years old, how could he like a girl? He doesn't have a pedophile!
Yuan Xiu turned his face away and looked out the window, looking at the bustling and lively scene, but he was bored in his heart. He knew that he said that his family wanted him to marry a wife, and she would not be nervous about it, and only he had some thoughts.
"I didn't say yes." Yuan Xiu looked out the window, his voice a little muffled, "I said to my aunt...... I've got someone in mind. โ
Twilight held the teacup in her hand and was stunned.
She just looked at Yuan Xiu's expression, it was not that she didn't have doubts, but she didn't want to think about it, but she didn't expect it......
When?
Yuan Xiu didn't know when it was, but when his aunt mentioned to him about marrying a wife, he was full of upset, and all he thought about was her. He told his aunt that he had a crush on someone, and his aunt asked him which lord was in the court, and he knew that if he was a girl from the Shu people, his aunt would not agree, so he said that it was from the government of the third grade of the court, but he didn't say which family, but his aunt still felt that the family was lower. She and her mother both liked Ning Zhao, and said that he hadn't seen her for many years, and held a poetry meeting in the Prime Minister's Mansion another day, asking him to take a look from a distance, maybe he liked it.
Although he clearly said that he didn't like it, he knew the temperament of his aunt and mother, and this poetry club was definitely going to be done, and I was afraid that this kind of thing forcing him to marry a wife in the future would be endless.
"Ah Qing." Yuan Xiu looked at Du Qing, did not speak, his ears were red first, and he was as nervous as a young man who had just opened his love, "If one day in the future, your father's revenge is avenged, you are willing, you are ......willing, you are willing."
Yuan Xiu was a little annoyed that he was stupid at this time, he was not afraid of killing the enemy on the battlefield, but he was afraid to ask her a heart. But he is a dignified man, and once he speaks, he doesn't have half the truth!
"Will you marry me?" Yuan Xiu asked quickly, and his face turned red after asking. He poured a cup of tea, and didn't care about the hot tea, he raised his head and drank it, and after drinking it, he felt that his heart was hot, his face was hot, and his whole body was hot.
Twilight Qing looked at Yuan Xiu, and didn't know what to say for a while.
Yuan Xiu said again: "You don't have to worry about the door, we will go to the northwest border, the desert Guanshan, be free, and not live a restrained life in this Shengjing." โ
Twilight opened her mouth, "Do you really think you can spend your whole life in the Northwest?" โ
Not to mention that the Yuan family has the intention of plotting to seize the throne, even if they don't, the Xiangguo couple will not let their son-in-law fight on the border in the bitter cold land and never return.
It's unrealistic, she doesn't like to dream.
Yuan Xiu looked up, the fragrance of tea was curling, the man's face was as red as a cherry, but his eyes were as deep as an abyss, and the beauty sat opposite him, his eyes were like three spring snow, and he was indescribably clear.
She was not half happy.
Yuan Xiu lowered his head and smiled, and the former hearty and frank man added loneliness between his eyebrows. In the northwest these years, he and the soldiers did not ask about the affairs of the court, nor about the love of their children, they were bent on killing the enemy and serving the country, and the days were free and happy. This matter was reckless on his part, but he still had a glimmer of hope in his heart, but the result was ...... As he expected.
"I'll arrange the court and family affairs." Yuan Xiudao, but didn't ask Twilight Qing again.
He should have arranged these things before asking her what she wanted, and he was in a hurry to do so. There are a lot of things going on in this return to the court, and he will definitely persuade his family to stop the peace, and then take her back to the northwest to stay away from these disputes!
Twilight Qing saw the determination in Yuan Xiu's heart, sighed in her heart, and said, "Yuan Xiu." โ
Yuan Xiu looked at her, and when he saw her serious gaze and strict expression, he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart.
"I like my days in the Northwest very much, even if I think about military exploits every day, I think about avenging my father every night, and I don't have a day of peace in my heart, but I still like it. I like the free wind of the northwest as much as you do, and I can't let go of those hot-blooded sons and daughters who serve the country. In this life, I don't know if I can go back to the Northwest, but I will always respect the sons and daughters of the Northwest Army and the commander of your army. "Twilight said.
Yuan Xiu was stunned, respectful?
Twilight looked at him, and saw the pain in his stunned eyes, but she didn't hide from it.
Seems he got it.
In her life, she has never spoken so roundaboutly.
She doesn't like men with this temperament, whether it's Bu Xihuan or Yuan Xiu, she is grateful to them for letting her know that in this world besides her father, there are people who can tolerate her with their hearts. Yuan Xiu is a heroic son, his ambition is higher than the sky, and his pride is higher than the sky, she doesn't want to embarrass him too much by the words she refuses, and she doesn't want to be ambiguous, so she has to beat around the bush and hope that he can understand.
She already has one person in her heart, and she can't put anyone else.
"I'm a little tired, I'll go back to the house and rest, and I'll talk about it another day."
Outside the Wangshan Tower, the snow is scattered, and the sun shines brightly, dazzling to the eyes.
When Twilight arrived outside the teahouse, Yue Kill and Yuan Xiu's personal soldiers were a little surprised to see her come out alone. Twilight gathered her hood, left the carriage to Yuan Xiu, and walked slowly out of the long street.
As soon as she left, a carriage drove in from outside the city gate and stopped at the door of the jewelry shop opposite Wangshan Tower.
A maid came down from the carriage, opened the curtain, and helped down a young girl.
The girl was covered with tulle, draped in a fragrant lotus coat, the wind was cold, and the skirt was like a wave. I saw the girl walking slowly, walking like a spring butterfly dotting water, the breeze blowing the willows, and the wind in winter couldn't help but soften a little.
If you don't see your face, you're already empty.
As the street became quiet, the people stopped and saw the maiden master and servant enter the jewelry shop.
In the middle of the night, the maid came out with a jewelry box, opened the curtain, and the girl was about to get into the car, but four or five scholars came out of the Wangshan Tower.
The first person is a purple-crowned jade face, wearing a pine ink fox fur, phoenix eyes are slightly raised, and the smile is graceful but a little gloomy.
The people were silent when they saw it, their faces were full of fear, no one in the imperial city knew about this person, it was not someone else, it was the younger brother of the current saint, the prince of Heng Wangfu.
Behind Bu Xichen are the concubines of Hengwangfu, and there is no prince in Shengjing who is willing to get close to Hengwangfu, they have always been alone, arrogant and lascivious, and they are not inferior to today's saints. Today, this girl bumped into these people, and I was afraid that she would not be able to leave.
Behind Bu Xichen, a concubine from King Heng's Mansion stepped forward to stop the carriage, shook his fan and asked, "Miss is so graceful, dare to ask which house Miss is from?" โ
This was a light statement, and the maid was angry, and wanted to rebuke her, but the girl secretly stopped herself, and stepped forward to take a step forward and be blessed with a blessing. This blessing, the wind blows the fragrant lotus, the big fragrance shirt Suluo, not like the Luo skirt style that women in Beijing love, but like seeing the spring color of the south of the Yangtze River, indescribably graceful.
The girl said: "This son, the little woman has lived in Jiangnan for a long time, and this time she returned to Beijing to join her relatives, and hurried back to the house to meet the elders, hoping that the son would have a convenient trip." โ
"Oh? Back home? Bu Xichen smiled and asked, "Which house is Miss from?" โ
"Anping Marquis Mansion."
Several concubines in Hengwang's Mansion glanced at each other, and they all looked surprised.
The Shen family of Anping Marquis was also beautiful back then, and Emperor Wuzong's biological mother was the daughter of the Shen family, but now the Yuan family is in charge, and the Shen family has been in decline for many years.
There was nothing to surprise them in the Anping Hou Mansion, but what surprised them was that this young lady said that she came back from Jiangnan! In that year, Shen Er, the second son of the Marquis of Anping, was exiled to a small county in the south of the Yangtze River, Shen Er died in Jiangnan, and the Shen family did not dare to take back Shengjing after his death. Half a year ago, there was news that something had happened in the Shen Mansion in Jiangnan, and Shen Er's concubine encountered water bandits on the way out to do business, and was killed by the bandits, and a boatload of people and goods sank into the river, and even the body was not fished out. Liu, the mother of the concubine, heard that her son had an accident, and she couldn't think of hanging herself in the house. She was in the side room of Shen Er, she was in charge of the house for many years, as soon as she died, there was no one in charge of the house, Shen Er's concubine was a medicine jar, and the old Fengjun of the Anping Marquis Mansion handed over the sign to the palace, asking the Empress Dowager to allow her to return to Beijing to recuperate.
With the style of the Marquis of Anping's Mansion over the years, it is fake to take Shen Er's concubine back to raise her body, and it is true that she wants to find a marriage for her in Shengjing, and she takes the opportunity to marry. Back then, Emperor Wuzong did not suppress the Yuan family, when the first emperor established the prince in his later years, the Marquis of Anping was a party of the three princes, and the three princes had the highest voice in the court, and the nine princes were young, and the position of the prince could not be his, so in those years in the court, the Marquis of Anping did not work against Yuan Xiangguo, and now the court is the world of the Yuan family, the empress dowager holds grudges, and the Shen family has suffered a lot over the years. The old feudal monarch of the Shen family begged the Empress Dowager to take Shen Er's daughter back, and many people in Beijing waited to see the joke, but they didn't expect the Empress Dowager to be really accurate?
Could it be that the Empress Dowager doesn't hold grudges, and the Shen family is about to rise up?
"It turned out to be Miss Shen." Bu Xichen was not surprised, and asked, "When Miss first arrived in Shengjing, can you recognize the road to the Marquis of Anping?" It's better for this son to show the way for the young lady. โ
The Son?
Shen Wenyu's maid was shocked, looking at the dust and jade tree, she didn't expect the young lady to be so lucky, and she met the prince as soon as she returned to Beijing, but there are many princes' mansions in Shengjing, there are beautiful ones, some are not beautiful, I don't know which prince this is.
"Thank you, the coachman, you know the way." Shen asked Yufu to refuse, she was born in Jiangnan and grew up in Jiangnan, demure and gentle, like water and weak, and the charm that is rare in the daughter of the nobles of Shengjing.
Bu Xichen stepped forward and lifted the curtain of her carriage, looked inside, and said with a smile: "Shengjing is cold, how can such a simple carriage be protected from the wind?" Miss should take the carriage of this prince back home. โ
He gave the little guy behind him a look, the little guy ran into the Wangshan Tower, and after a while, a Chinese car came out of the backyard, with colorful flags behind the car, and the word "Heng" was written on it.
Shen Wenyu's maid saw it and took a deep breath.
Heng Wang's Mansion?
The carriage of King Heng's Mansion can't sit!
"Miss, please." Bu Xichen saw the girl's expression in his eyes, and his eyebrows were a little gloomy, and he personally opened the curtain and asked Shen Wenyu to get into the car.
Shen Wenyu half-bowed his head, wearing a light veil on his face, unable to see his expression, but the hand under his sleeve was slightly clenched.
"My second brother wants to send Miss Shen to the Hou Mansion, so Miss will get in the car and lead the way for Miss in the next wish." A concubine in Hengwang's Mansion said, put away the folding fan as he spoke, and stretched out his hand to lead Shen Wenyu.
Shen Wenyu stepped back, the maid's face turned white, the coachman didn't dare to stop her, and the onlookers didn't dare to say much, but a cup of tea suddenly poured down on the upper floor of Wangshan!
The tea was hot, impartially splashed on the head of the concubine of the Heng Wangfu, the concubine was scalded and screamed, jumped high, the cold wind blew, the face was steaming, stained with tea, funny wolf bรจi.
"Who!" The concubine was furious and looked up.
The people on the street also raised their heads one after another, and saw a person facing the window, snow-crowned ink robe, sparse eyebrows, eyes like a galaxy, looking high on the street, that gaze reminded people of the desert sun, the wind knife outside the gate, just one glance to see that the concubine's heart seemed to have been stabbed through the cold, and he didn't dare to be presumptuous.
Bu Xichen raised his head, a strange color flashed in his eyes, and said with a smile: "Who should I be, it turned out to be Hou Ye, I don't know that Hou Ye is also in Wangshan Tower, and I quarreled with Hou Ye Yaxing who drank tea, it really shouldn't be." Why don't you cherish the dust and be the east, come up to make amends for the Hou Ye, and have a few drinks with the prince? โ
After that, he no longer paid attention to Shen Wenyu, glanced gloomily at the concubine who had been splashed with tea, and led the others into Wangshan Tower.
As soon as the people left, Shen Wenyu's siege was relieved, and she stood on the street to give Yuan Xiu Yingying.
Yuan Xiu didn't look at her, he was just in a bad mood and felt that the street was too noisy. Now the noise is not noisy, Bu Xichen wants to come up, but he is not in the mood to greet, so he put the tea money on the table, jumped to the window, galloped through the long street, the people made an uproar, only to see the snowflakes getting bigger, the man's clothes are like black clouds, and the work of amazement goes far.
It wasn't until the person was far away that no one remembered.
"That's like ...... General! โ
"That's right! It's the Great General! Yesterday, the officers and men of the Northwest Army returned to the court, and I saw it on the street! โ
"The road is uneven, the general is really a hero!"
"Shh Someone booed and glanced into the lookout tower. What road is uneven, but the evil is the people of Hengwangfu, who say this, and don't want to live?
Only then did the man realize that he had lost his words, and hurriedly shut up.
Upstairs on the mountain, Bu Xichen entered the house, but the house was empty, and only the silver money was placed on the table. He walked to the window and looked out of the window, his face gloomy.
Shen Wenyu also looked into the distance, not moving for a long time, only her skirt followed the wind, like water and waves.
