Chapter 177: Misunderstanding

Duanyue moved her gaze to the poor fourth princess, she looked at everyone with a pale face, her frightened eyes trembling and she didn't know where to look. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The fourth princess is different from Duanyue, she has lived in the palace since she was a child, she has no rebellious character and no courage to refuse, all she can do is accept it calmly. The fourth princess lowered her head and nodded at Meng Xian. "To be able to make peace with the country, of course Wan'er is willing."

Of course she was willing, how dare she not want to. The fourth princess is the concubine of the abolished Hou Threshold clan and the only daughter. After the power of the Threshold Clan fell, she was like a lonely wild goose, losing her way. The decadence of her brother Meng Yin and the fall of the queen mother, she has no one to shelter herself, and all she can do is to obey the orders of the Empress Dowager like a puppet.

The third prince glanced at the fourth princess with a pale face, and saw that she had a beautiful face and a timid look, although she was not the candidate he wanted, but the true princess of the royal family was always more precious than the county lord. The third prince still nodded reluctantly, and agreed as such.

As a result, Meng Tao's nervous face showed a relaxed expression, and he raised the wine glass he was holding tightly in his hand and said loudly to the third prince. "Since the two countries have a good marriage, why don't you congratulate me and the Uighurs for our Liang State!"

With that, everyone raised their wine glasses, and everyone smiled except for the grief-stricken appearance of the fourth princess. Originally, I was worried about whether I would be selected to go to get married, but once I was relieved, all that haunted me was joy.

Duanyue saw that the fourth princess was going to marry far away because of her own reasons, and she couldn't help it. And seeing so many people and no one felt sorry for her, she felt even more sad. She had no choice but to excuse herself and say that she couldn't drink enough, and left the main hall alone and wanted to go back first.

As soon as Duanyue stepped out of the main hall with one foot, a strong hand grabbed her arm and pulled her to the bottom of the wall. When she looked up, she saw that it was Yan Xinghui frowning, looking at herself with some expression.

He looked at Duanyue quietly, and the throat on his neck rolled up and down, so that Duanyue didn't know what he wanted. Feeling Yan Xinghui's gaze, Duanyue lowered her head shyly, she wrung her hands and asked in a delicate voice. "We're all about to get married, and you're still delaying this for a while?"

"Xiao Yue......" Yan Xinghui took a deep breath and said in a deep voice to Duanyue. I can't marry you. ”

His whispered words made Duan Yuehong flutter with a happy smile for a moment, and she was stunned in place, suddenly not knowing what to do. He could only whisper indiscriminately. "Why can't you marry me? I like you, don't you like me too? Save me again and again, and give me peach blossom branches, don't you like it? ”

"I saved you because I won't die without helping, and I gave you peach blossom branches just because I saw that your hands were empty and pitiful." Yan Xinghui frowned with helplessness on his face. "Satsuki, I've been with you for so many years, and I'm fair to say that all I have for you is friendship between friends. I don't know what's wrong with you. But it's still too late, while the emperor hasn't made an edict yet, let's make it clear quickly! ”

Duanyue's eyes were already hazy with tears and she couldn't see the person in front of her clearly, she didn't expect that her intentions were just misunderstandings in Yan Xinghui's eyes.

"Do you really think so? Do you really have no affection for me? Duanyue grabbed Yan Xinghui's sleeve in disbelief, pleading with a pleading face. When we first met five years ago, there was still a hunting ground under the cave, on the banks of the Peach Blossom River, on the top of Lingchu Mountain. Is it really just my wishful thinking? ”

She just didn't believe it, she looked at Yan Xinghui's eyes, obviously there was a trace of love in them, why did he deny it.

Yan Xinghui shook his head, he gently let go of Duanyue's hands that were pulling his sleeves, and looked at Duanyue calmly with his eyes. "You misunderstood."

Such an understatement made Duanyue feel the five thunders. She secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, wiped the tears from her cheeks with resentment, and said to Yan Xinghui. "Forget it! Even if you don't like me, it's enough for me to like you. It's about myself, it's not about you! ”

After saying that, Duanyue turned around and walked towards the palace gate with her hands tightly clenched. Every step she took felt like stepping on the edge of a knife, and it hurt in her heart.

Yan Xing immediately chased after her, grabbed Duanyue, and shook her shoulders vigorously. "It's true that you like me, but it's a common thing for you to marry me! Satsuki, you can't pull me into the abyss just because of her unrequited love for me! There's no way I can marry you. ”

"Yan Xinghui, then I'll tell you too. Since I told the emperor about this matter and asked for marriage, I didn't think about taking it back. She looked down at her toes. I'm sorry...... "It's my selfishness."

After Duanyue whispered these three words, she didn't wait for Yan Xinghui's reply, lifted her skirt and ran quickly and didn't know where to go. As she ran, her eyes were uncontrollably moist.

In the end, she didn't know where she had run, so she could only lean against the wall and hug her knees and cry vigorously. Duanyue never thought that all this was just a misunderstanding, she really saw love in Yan Xinghui's eyes. At this time, she suddenly felt very sarcastic, one moment she was still spitting on Cuiguo for using that dirty method to tempt Yan Feng, but the next second she used the same method to win Yan Xinghui.

Is it really just my own fantasy? Duanyue buried her face in her knees, and her crying shoulders shook like the trees blown by the wind.

"Who's out there?" In the quiet and dark palace road, a hoarse inquiry suddenly sounded.

Duanyue immediately stopped crying, and she raised her head and looked around vigilantly. In front of her stood a ruined wall, on which the red vermilion paint was already mottled red and white. It's cold and lonely here, and it also reveals a sense of gloom, which makes Duanyue feel very uncomfortable.

She stood up from the ground, brushed her fingers slightly against the palace wall, and asked timidly into the air. "Who is it?"

There was a long silence in her reply, and after a moment she heard a long sigh from the palace wall. "No one has spoken to me for a long time, can you come in and talk to me for a while?"

Duanyue felt that this voice was familiar, and she rubbed all the way along the fence to find a vermilion gate full of creepers, but it was locked by an arm's thick iron chain.
