Chapter 356: Under the Moon
Halfway through the meal, Xuanhui was about to be over, so he quietly instructed Cai Wei: "Go outside and tell the prince that I will take someone over to the Frost Pavilion on the south side of Xiliu Lake." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
Cai Wei took the order and left. After a while, Xuanhui got up and said with a smile: "The big-bellied woman has a lot of things, I'll miss it." β
Yang Yunshu asked, "Shall I accompany you?" β
Xuanhui smiled: "Sister-in-law just sit down, I haven't seen Sister Xu for a long time, she will accompany me, and we will talk about ourselves all the way!" β
Xu Yingjiao hurriedly stood up, confessed to everyone, and helped Xuanhui out of Yuanxiangxuan.
"I ...... I see what General Wang should say......" Xu Yingjiao said worriedly.
"If there's anything you want to ask, just ask! General Wang has a gentle personality and is a very good person. Xuanhui smiled.
Xu Yingjiao bit her lower lip nervously, she had something to ask, but she couldn't say it!
"He, although he has never been married, but he is not young, how many people are in the house?" After asking, Xu Yingjiao felt that she was stupid, even if Wang Yu had it by her side, how could Xuanhui know?
"As far as I know, no, I've heard his little sister say it before." Wang Miaozhen, who was mentioned in passing, Xuan Hui discovered that some people and things were as old and vague as in their previous lives.
"Huh?" Xu Yingjiao was a little surprised, but secretly happy.
As he spoke, the Frost Pavilion arrived, and there were two long figures standing inside. Seeing them coming, a person walked down the steps quickly and stretched out his hand to help Xuanhui.
"Sister Xu, this is my father-in-law, the prince of Chengguo." Xuanhui said with a smile.
Xu Yingjiao hurriedly saluted Pei Minzhong.
"This is General Wang Yuwang, a general of the third rank under the prince."
Xu Yingjiao was so ashamed that she didn't dare to look up, only to feel that there was a tall and healthy man standing in front of her, covering half of the moonlight that had spilled into the pavilion.
"Hey, what's this scent?" Xuanhui pinched Pei Minzhong and asked pretendingly.
"There are a few osmanthus plants outside the pavilion, I'll take you to see them." Pei Minzhong couldn't help but smile and said seriously.
"Sister Xu, wait a minute, I'll go back when I go."
Xu Yingjiao whispered "um".
Wang Yu watched Xuanhui's back, and her cloak was blown up by the cool breeze of the autumn night, fluttering.
He withdrew his gaze and looked at the shy girl in front of him. She must be looking forward to it, right?
He suddenly felt like a bad person, seducing the girl in front of him who knew nothing about everything.
"Miss Xu, you probably know everything about my family...... Now my father is paralyzed in bed, the younger sister and the eldest sister are the side concubines of the palace, and they are not favored by the prince...... Since my father used to have a close relationship with the Wang family, I can't be sure if the prince is willing to forgive......"
Speaking of a splendid art, when you look at it openly, it is full of scars.
Wang Yu's voice was low and gentle, and he slowly talked about the family affairs that embarrassed him.
Xu Yingjiao raised her head and looked at him, what kind of person was in front of her! The white face does not look like a military general, and there is a little tiredness and helplessness in the eyes of the starry star.
The eyes of the two met, and Xu Yingjiao almost fell into a flood of autumn water in Wang Yu's eyes.
"It's man-made, and General Wang doesn't have to be discouraged. As the days go by, the prince will be able to see the general's loyalty. Xu Yingjiao tried hard to pull herself out of those eyes, lowered her head, and said softly.
ββ¦β¦ Although my family affairs are like this, I think I am quite self-disciplined, and there are no messy people around. It's just ......"
Xu Yingjiao held her breath, she wouldn't already have a child!
"There was once a person in my heart, but she was already thousands of miles away. I'm not telling you anything, I just think I should let you know. I'll try to forget her, I'll try to treat you well, and you don't have to dislike her. After saying these words, Wang Yu was much more relaxed, which was the greatest honesty he could do.
Xu Yingjiao breathed a sigh of relief. She doesn't ask for much, as long as the other party has the sincerity to live a good life with her, she is already content.
"That's all I want to say, I don't know if there's anything you'd like to ask?" Wang Yu said gently.
Xu Yingjiao thought about it and shook her head again.
Wang Yu took out a slender brocade box from his arms, handed it to her, and said: "This is my mother's favorite thing when she was alive, and I gave it to you today, so it can be regarded as a token." β
Xu Yingjiao stretched out her hand to take it, and when she opened it, it was a mutton fat hosta with a white body, and the hairpin head was carved with two cherry blossoms, one with buds and the other in full bloom.
"I know that you have the word 'Sakura' in your name, which can be regarded as fate!" Wang Yu smiled softly.
Xu Yingjiao blushed and whispered: "I, I didn't, I didn't prepare any tokens for you......"
Wang Yu smiled and said, "No, this is a private gift from me." When I ask the prince for marriage, and when I come to your house to propose marriage, it will not be too late for you to give it to me. β
"You, you still ask the prince for marriage?" Xu Yingjiao held the brocade box tightly in her hand, and the rippling happiness in her heart made her feel like she was standing in the clouds.
Wang Yu said lightly: "My stepmother died, and my father can't handle it, rather than me going to ask for marriage by myself, it is better to ask the prince to marry solemnly." β
It turned out to be a thoughtful and considerate person......
Xuan Hui and Pei Minzhong stood by the osmanthus tree by the lake, looking at the moon that had climbed up to the middle of the sky. Xuanhui said with a smile: "When I was in the palace, my two sisters and I also picked flowers, washed and dried them with our own hands, and made sachets for the Queen Mother. There are also two osmanthus flowers in Chengqian Palace, and I have also made osmanthus candy with Yuan Xiang and Cai Wei! β
"There is also a camphor tree in the Chengqian Palace, and Aunt Jingyun said that when I was born, my father buried the clothes with his own hands, and said that when I got married, he cut down the box for the dowry...... It's a pity that it's burned down now......"
Pei Minzhong stretched out his arms around her and comforted: "As long as you are doing well, the first emperor will be happy...... In the future, our daughter is born, let's also plant a camphor tree for her to fulfill the wish of the first emperor, do you say? β
"Daughter...... Xuan Hui gently stroked her stomach and smiled, "I don't know if this one is a boy or a girl!" You're a daddy, can you have a good name? β
"If it's a son, it's called 'seeing the virtuous', 'seeing the virtuous and thinking together, seeing the unvirtuous and introspecting inward', how about it?"
Xuan Hui was puzzled: "Didn't you say that a single name is a 'sincere'?" β
Pei Minzhong said with a smile: "I saw that you didn't like this name very much, so I thought of another ......."
"No," Xuan Hui shook his head, "Pei Zhi is very good, if it is a son, then call it this name!" β
Pei Minzhong smiled helplessly: "Women's hearts, I really don't understand!" β
Because I want to be the love of your life, I want to grow old with you......
"What if it's a daughter?" Xuanhui tilted his head and asked him with a smile.
"At that time, you said that you dreamed of the moon, but now you think about it as a fetal dream. Mingyue He Jiaojiao, the big name is called Mingyue, the small character is bright, is it good? β
"Kyauk-kyuk, Kyauk-kyuk......" Xuanhui silently read the name, and the child in her belly churned with joy.
