Nanling Palace.

On the high attic, Dai Jinchao stood quietly in front of the window, looking at the avenue outside the palace.

I don't know how long it took for the carriage to finally come into view, and his hands hanging at his side gradually clenched, and his eyes kept moving with the carriage. It was not until the carriage was completely gone that he withdrew his gaze, and walked to the table with heavy steps, as if all his strength had been drained, and sat down in a dejected manner.

Dai Jinchao sat here all night.

It was not until the next morning, when a slight light appeared in the east, that he stood up and walked out of the attic with a steady step, and there was a hint of firmness in his eyes than yesterday.

"Lord Wang, the prince is here." Dai Zhuolin, the king of Nanling, was handling affairs in the study, when the guards outside the door suddenly came in and returned.

King Nanling was a little surprised, what was the matter with coming to him early this morning, and he said in a deep voice: "Let the prince come in." Then, put away the pending business at hand.

Dai Jinchao walked into the study, gave a deep salute, and then asked solemnly: "Father, the child wants to marry Miss Yunjin as his wife." ”

King Nanling's face gradually became solemn, he got up and came to him, and asked in a deep voice, "Have you thought about it carefully?" ”

"The kid thinks it through." Dai Jinchao's eyes were firm, and his voice was calm, "If the child doesn't marry her, the prince will marry her, since she is destined to not escape this bumpy fate, it is better for the child to marry her, so that the power of the General's Mansion can be used by us." ”

King Nanling pondered for a while, nodded in agreement, and instructed the guards outside the door, "Go and invite the princess to come over." ”

Princess Nanling rarely came to King Nanling's study, and at this time, the prince invited her to go early in the morning. I thought something was wrong, so I hurried to the study, and after listening to the words of father and son. At first, it was incredible, and then he smiled a little embarrassed and a little relieved, "That's okay, the Gu family originally wanted to marry our palace, and this can be regarded as what they wanted." ”

King Nanling paced back and forth in the study with his hands behind him, and after a long time, he said the hidden worries in his heart with some embarrassment: "But." Because of the matter of harmony, I heard that the emperor has reached an agreement with General Gu to marry Yun Jin to the crown prince. We are talking now, but I am afraid that it will be difficult for the emperor to do it. ”

After careful consideration, Dai Jinchao had already thought about everything, and said slowly: "The emperor only verbally agreed to them. The decree was not given. We just don't know about it. Also, we didn't open our mouth to the emperor, and directly asked the mother concubine to ask to see the Queen Mother, starting from the Queen Mother. The child thought that as long as the Gu family agreed to this family, the Queen Mother should not refuse. ”

Princess Nanling agreed with his words very much, and said with a smile: "This is true, every time I go to visit the Queen Mother." The Queen Mother always asks about you, and you can see that she cares about you very much. And mentioned your marriage many times, and said that I want to choose a good family for you, but I politely refused, I said that one day you have a crush, and then ask her to be the master of marriage, if we open to her now, she will definitely agree. ”

Dai Jinchao said: "Then it will trouble the father and the princess to worry about the child." ”

Princess Nanling sighed and said quietly: "What is this, this is something we should worry about." If you can get married, you can forget about our affairs, and when you have a son in the future, you won't be afraid of anything. ”

When King Nanling heard this, he felt extremely harsh, glared at her and scolded: "What are you talking about for no reason. ”

Princess Nanling was also alert that it was too unlucky to say this on a good day, and she was afraid that Dai Jinchao would have something in her heart, so she hurriedly smiled and changed the topic and said, "Without further ado, I will enter the palace today to see the Queen Mother." ”

"Thank you, Princess." Dai Jinchao didn't seem to hear what she said just now, and quietly thanked her again.

When Dai Jinchao came out of the study, he saw that the red sun in the east was slowly rising, he exhaled a long breath and walked slowly towards Chaohuayuan.

When the maids saw the master who had not returned to the room for a night, they were about to ask a few words with concern, but before they could speak, they saw the master waving at them. The maids had no choice but to withdraw in doubt.

Dai Jinchao entered the room, saw his bed at a glance, and suddenly remembered the person who had been lying on it. He slowly walked to the front of the couch and sat down on the side, he couldn't help but reach out and stroke gently, his eyes fluctuated, and his heart flowed with affection.

"Brother today." At this moment, a soft call came, and a slender figure quickly appeared in the room, it was Meng Wanqing.

Dai Jinchao quickly put away his thoughts, got up and said, "Wanqing, you came to me so early, is there anything wrong?" ”

Meng Wanqing put the food box in her hand on the table and opened it, then took out a bowl of soup and medicine and held it up in front of him, and said with anticipation: "I developed another medicine last night, and I stayed up all night. ”

Dai Jinchao took the medicine in her hand, did not drink it, but put it aside, and said helplessly: "Wanqing, how many times have I said, don't worry about me so much anymore, it's useless, why waste your mind in vain." ”

"No, brother Imakura." Meng Wanqing shook her head violently, grabbed his arm tightly and said firmly: "I won't give up, I will definitely find an antidote for you." ”

Dai Jinchao looked at her and suddenly said quietly: "Wanqing, I'm ...... is ready to marry Gu Yunjin as his wife. ”

Meng Wanqing's hand that grabbed his arm slowly let go, and her face became extremely stiff, but soon, she smiled lightly again, "For the sake of revenge, I know this is a move you made, Gu Yunjin is just a chess piece of yours, right?" I also think it's good for us to do that. ”

Dai Jinchao lowered his eyes and was silent for a long time before nodding slightly.

Meng Wanqing put her mind at ease and sent the medicine to him again, "Brother today, drink the medicine quickly." ”

Dai Jinchao glanced at her and sighed helplessly, "Hey, I really can't help you, what do you say you are so diligent, let me drink medicine twice in three days, and now I am scared when I see you." ”

Meng Wanqing stood on tiptoe and personally brought the medicine to his mouth.

Dai Jinchao didn't want to live up to her heart, so he had to drink it with her hand.

When she woke up early this morning, Gu Yunjin's right eye kept jumping, she rubbed it a few times with her hand, thinking that her right eye was beating in disaster, could it be that something bad was going to happen today?

"What's wrong with Miss? Why do you keep rubbing your eyes? Yue Liushao saw her movements and asked strangely.

Gu Yunjin frowned while dressing and said: "I also wonder, my right eye keeps jumping early in the morning, as the saying goes, the left eye jumps wealth and the right eye jumps disaster, do you think I will be unlucky today." ”

Yue Liushao couldn't help laughing, "When did Miss start to be superstitious about this, maybe there will be a happy event today." ”

Wedding?

Gu Yunjin said secretly: Except for the marriage, there doesn't seem to be any happy event. But it shouldn't happen that soon, right? (To be continued.) )
