265. A sad breakup
In the early morning, Su Junchu reported to Prime Minister Su that there were bandits who kidnapped Niannian last night, which shocked Prime Minister Su and Mrs. Su.
Master Su said to Su Junchu that if there is something else today, he will not go to court, and let his son go to the emperor to take leave first.
Su Junchu agreed and said, "Father, mother, the child still has something to ask for." β
"What's the matter with you?" Su Pincheng and Mrs. Su both bowed slightly, this son has always been so good, and today he actually said that if he has something to ask for, it must not be a trivial matter.
Su Junchu pondered for a moment and said, "The child wants to marry Niannian as his wife." β
"Huh?" Su Pincheng and Mrs. Su's faces changed a little, they glanced at each other, and they didn't know how to answer their son for a while.
Su Pincheng took leave to stay at home today, just to go with his wife to tell Niannian about letting her marry instead of Xiaorou. Who thought about this, and his son actually proposed to marry Niannian.
"The child has been with Nian Nian since he was a child, and he is in love, and the child is full of joy when he sees Nian Nian. Now that the child has reached the age of 20, he should be able to take on the responsibility of marrying a wife and starting a family, and he completed the ceremony of harmony last year, and now he has reached the age of 16. Su Junchu was still immersed in the sweetness of his first love with Niannian, and he didn't notice that his parents' faces had changed, and he was still talking with interest.
"Xiaorou and the prince's marriage has not yet been completed, and you are now mentioning that you want to marry Nian Nian as your wife, aren't you adding chaos to the family?" Su Pincheng couldn't help but scold.
"The child has never stopped looking for Xiaorou, and he will not give up in the future. Now that the wedding date is approaching, the child thinks that the father should immediately explain the truth to the emperor, cancel the marriage, and then choose a good family affair for the prince. I think the emperor will see my father's old age and high achievements, and give a light punishment. If it really drags on until the day of marriage, and everything in the palace is fully prepared and the bride cannot be found, then the matter will not end well. Su Junchu said that he had mentioned this opinion to his father a long time ago, but Prime Minister Su never let go, and now that the matter has reached the point of burning his eyebrows, he once again said his thoughts.
"Shut up! I have my own decision on Xiaorou's affairs, you go to Chaoli first. Your business, your mother and I will ask Nian Nian's thoughts again. Su Pincheng waved his hand tiredly and let his son go down.
Su Junchu had just left the Prime Minister's Mansion on horseback, and Su Pincheng asked Xiaocui to call Meng Niannian.
Nian Nian came, her face was shy, she thought to herself that Su Junchu must have mentioned the marriage between the two of them to the master, and the master and the wife came to her to ask.
However, when she stepped into the room, she saw that the faces of Master Su and Mrs. Su were strangely solemn.
And Master Su's first sentence frightened Niannian even more: "Niannian, the danger of the Su family can only be saved by you now." β
After a while, Nian Nian heard things clearly, and Su Xiangye and Mrs. Su asked Nian Nian Li Dai Taozhuang to marry the prince instead of Xiaorou.
Meng Niannian never thought that the marriage of generations that she had read countless times in the book would be interpreted to herself, and when she gave Xiaorou the idea to escape, she didn't expect that things would develop to this point.
The meaning of the lord and the lady is already very clear, and Niannian's current situation seems to be that he has no choice, and it is best to agree, and it is impossible not to agree.
"Uncle, I promised the third brother to be his wife." Nian Nian was in turmoil for a while.
"Nian Nian, Jun Chu has always been stubborn, in fact, the emperor's baby daughter Princess Lan Xin has always been interested in Jun Chu, and the emperor and the queen have long regarded Jun Chu as their fast son-in-law, but Jun Chu has always shirked his young age and wants to achieve his career first. Now you two must not be emotionally involved and miss your own future. Su Pincheng said anxiously.
"Princess Lanxin?" Nian Nian muttered, it turns out that Princess Lanxin has always liked Junchu, and in the eyes of Su Xiangye and Mrs., the future of the son who can become the princess is of course immeasurable.
"I know that Junchu has a deep affection for you, and he has already told me and your aunt just now that he wants to marry you. The bell must be tied to the bell, and only you can make him die for this matter. Su Pincheng continued: "You go and tell Junchu that you don't want to marry him, you have to replace Xiaorou as the crown princess, so that he can marry Princess Lanxin with peace of mind in the future." β
"I can't! My third brother and I are truly in love. Uncle, aunt, please don't part with us! Nian Nian said fiercely that she is a girl who has traveled through modern society, and she has to work hard to strive for her own happiness.
"Nian Nian, do you still want me and your aunt to bow down to you before you agree?" Su Pincheng said in a hurry, and pulled Mrs. Su to bow down to Niannian.
"Uncle and aunt......" Nian Nian hurriedly stopped, at this moment Su Junchu's handsome face was floating in her mind, she felt heartache, and responded sadly: "I promise you, I promise you." β
For the whole day, Meng Niannian lay in bed.
Listening to the sound of dripping rain outside the window, she couldn't help but think of Li Qingzhao's famous song "Slow Voice":
Looking for and seeking, cold and lonely, miserable and miserable. When it's warm and cold, it's the hardest to breathe. Three glasses and two glasses of light wine, how can he be the enemy, and the wind is in a hurry at night? The geese are also sad, but they are old acquaintances.
The yellow flowers are piled up all over the ground, haggard and damaged, who can pick them now? Guarding the window, how can you be born alone in the dark? The sycamore is more drizzle, and it drips by dusk. This time, how can you get a sad word?
Yes, this time, how can you be worried?
Meng Niannian remembered that when she read this poem in school before, she and her classmates also said that if it were her, she would not have written such sad words.
And now, she has traveled to an era of a thousand years ago, the first time she met love, the first time her heart beat for a man, the tenderness of last night's first kiss seemed to remain between her lips, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye. I just realized the sweetness of love, but I was about to part immediately. Although unforgettable, they are destined not to be together......
Thinking that Su Junchu was about to go home, Meng Niannian cheered up, combed his hair hastily on the mirror, and wiped the remaining tears on his face.
Later, it was time for her to fulfill her promise to Master Su and make it clear to Su Junchu.
In the evening, Su Junchu had just stepped into the Prime Minister's Mansion when he heard Xiaocui say, "Third Prince, Miss Cousin asked you to go to her for a while." β
Su Junchu hurriedly walked towards Nian Nian's room. When I arrived at the door, I saw Nian Nian wearing a long green dress, standing against the window, indescribably elegant and elegant.
"Niannian, I'm here." Su Junchu shouted with a smile, reaching out to shake Niannian's hand.
"Third brother, you sit down first, I have something to tell you." Nian Nian bypassed Su Junchu's hand and pointed to the chair in front of the table.
"What's wrong? The little girl is so strict today. Su Junchu sat down, still smiling.
Hearing Su Junchu affectionately call her a little girl, Meng Niannian thought sourly: How did he know that I was not, and I couldn't be, the little girl who followed him all day long and called him the third brother?
She shook her head slightly, turned her heart sideways, looked at the drizzle drifting outside the window and said, "Third brother, I am about to marry the prince." β
"What are you talking about? Niannian, what are you kidding? Su Junchu looked at Nian Nian in disbelief.
"I'm not kidding, I mean really. Xiao Rou has never come back, I think I can marry into the palace instead of Xiao Rou. I've told my aunt and uncle, and they've agreed. On the ninth day of September, I will marry the crown prince. Nian Nian said indifferently, still not looking at Su Junchu.
With a "pop", Nian Nian heard a crisp sound, and saw that a ceramic teacup on the table had been pinched and shattered by Su Junchu, and blood was flowing down his hand.
She tried her best to resist the urge to rush over and hold his hand, and continued to say indifferently: "I was too stupid to understand anything before, and now I want to be the crown princess." β
"Why is this happening? You said you wanted to be my wife, you said you wanted to be with me for the rest of your life! Did your father force you? Su Junchu asked in a hoarse voice, his handsome eyes were full of pain, confusion, and uneasiness at the moment.
"No one forced me, I was willing." Nian Nian said sharply: "I said I wanted to be your wife, but I want to be the crown princess more now, and maybe I can be the queen in the future." Queen and your wife, which one do you think I will choose? β
"I don't believe it! I don't believe it! Su Junchu raised his voice fiercely: "I don't believe you will be such a vain girl!" Nian Nian, sue me sΓΉ What you said is all fake, it's all funny! β
He stood up, rushed in front of Nian Nian, and grabbed her shoulder.
"Believe it or not, what girl doesn't have vanity? I'm no exception, I also want to fly on the branches and be a phoenix. It's the third brother, you used to think too well of me. Nian Nian continued to say cruelly.
"So, why don't your eyes dare look at me? Why don't you dare look at me and say? Su Junchu shook his thoughts, his voice was hurt and painful, but it was still so gentle.
The finger that had been cut just now was still bleeding, and the blood was dripping down and dripping onto Niannian's green shirt.
Meng Niannian felt that her heart was about to break, but she couldn't show a trace of pain.
She had already promised that Master Su would let Su Junchu die, let him go to a better future, and let the Su family continue to be prosperous and rich in this false exchange......
"Okay, I'm very tired now, and I've made it very clear, third brother, please go back." She resolutely pushed away Su Junchu's hand, and said in a cold voice: "In addition, before the ninth day of the ninth month of September, I hope that the third brother will not come to me again." β
"Good...... Niannian, since you said so, I won't bother you again. Su Junchu took a deep breath and seemed to have exhausted all the strength of his body.
Then, he slowly raised Nian Nian's chin, stared at her beautiful and fresh face, and said in a sad voice: "What a charming face, I just can't think of it, I'm Su Junchu...... You will even be confused by beauty. β
With that, he smiled bleakly, put aside his thoughts, and strode out.
Behind him, Nian Nian watched Su Junchu's lonely back go farther and farther, only to feel that his liver and intestines were broken, and his heart was broken into pieces......
