269. I am reluctant to let you go
Li Mo shook his head, spread out a piece of white rice paper, and began to write hard.
Su Xiaorou walked in with a cup of freshly brewed Longjing tea, handed it over and said, "Prince, please use tea." ”
Li Mo took the tea and glanced at Su Xiaorou lightly: "Tomorrow, our brothers will go hunting together in the Dongshan Royal Enclosure, and we will stay in Dongshan for one night, you and Han Qi will go with me, and you will rest early today." ”
"Hunting?" Su Xiaorou's eyes lit up, and she thought to herself, isn't that just the way she can get out of the palace? She hurriedly said, "The little comb obeys the prince's orders." ”
Early the next morning, the crown prince Li Mo took Han Qi and Su Xiaorou to the east gate of the palace to meet the second prince Li Rui and the third prince Li You, who were waiting here.
Seeing several tall horses parked in front of her, Xiao Rou secretly complained in her heart.
She had never ridden a horse since she was a child, and she did not dare to ride it. Last night, I was only happy to be able to leave the palace, but I forgot that I still have to ride a horse to hunt.
Soon, several princes and guards all got on their horses in a heroic manner, but Xiao Rou was still standing in place in a daze, with a look of embarrassment.
Li Mo couldn't help but be surprised when he saw it: "Little comb, time should not be delayed, hurry up and get on the horse." ”
How could he have thought that Su Xiaorou wouldn't dare to ride a horse at all? In their day, there was no man who could not ride a horse......
At this time, Li Rui drove a horse to Su Xiaorou, looked at Xiaorou's appearance of looking at the horse and sighed, and smiled slightly: "Brother Huang, since Xiao Comb doesn't want to ride a horse, then let me take her there." ”
As he spoke, one of his arms had already pulled Su Xiaorou up, placed it firmly in front of his horse, and then gently wrapped around Xiaorou's waist, leaned over and whispered in her ear, "Sit down, we're leaving." ”
Then with a wave of the whip, his horse rushed out first.
The third prince, Li You, saw the two of them riding away on a horse, and couldn't help but look stupid: "Brother Emperor, I would have taken your little follower with me if I knew it." ”
Li Mo glared fiercely at his third brother, who had not been a member since he was a child, and said warnly: "Third Emperor brother, you'd better be able to settle down a little!" With that, he waved his horse away.
Li You snorted reluctantly and followed.
Several princes and their guards hunted on the East Mountain for a day, and the harvest was very rich.
Not only did they hunt a lot of pheasants, hares, birds, and deer, but they also unexpectedly harvested two wild boars, and they were all happy at the moment. In the evening, a bonfire was lit on the mountain, and the barbecued game was eaten and the spring was drunk.
It was the first time for Su Xiaorou to go out hunting, and following them opened her eyes, feeling both novel and excited.
Except for the nasty third prince who threw a few lewd glances at her at every turn, which made her feel uncomfortable, this day was the happiest day after Su Xiaorou left home.
In the evening, the guards set up tents one after another, and everyone was tired from a day of playing, so they rested in peace.
Xiao Rou's tent was set up next to the prince, and although she was also very tired, she always felt unsteady and unaccustomed to spending the night in such a place for the first time. After a long time, I finally closed my eyes in a daze.
When she woke up from a dream, she felt as if someone had slipped into her tent.
Su Xiaorou was startled, and when she opened her eyes, she saw that the third prince Li You was looking at her in a daze, and said in her mouth: "Baby, I miss you." I have been thinking about you since I saw your father in the academy that time, and your little tender face is much more than the Peugeot I raised. On the other hand, he tore Su Xiaorou's clothes and pants.
Su Xiaorou was terrified and shouted, "The prince save me!" Prince save me! ”
At this time, Li You only felt that his body was light, and a powerful force lifted him up and threw him aside. Turning his face, Han Qi, the prince's personal guard, was standing beside him.
He was about to get angry, but he saw that behind Han Qi, there was a tall figure standing at him, staring at him coldly, it was the crown prince Li Mo.
"Brother Emperor, I ......" Li You was stunned suddenly.
Li Mo still stared at Li You with his eyes that were cold enough to kill people, walked in front of him step by step, and then gave Li You a resounding slap with lightning speed.
"Isn't it just a minion? Brother Huang, you actually beat me? Li You was annoyed and angry, covering half of his face and said angrily.
"I warned you a long time ago!" Li Mo said coldly.
"Good! Don't teach me that serious way all day long! I think you've hooked up with this little minion a long time ago, I'm going to sue my father! Li You shouted.
"Get out of here!" Li Mo didn't look at Li You again, just spit out these three words coldly from his mouth.
Li You looked at Li Mo, didn't dare to say anything more, and left angrily, and Han Qi, who was standing on the side, also followed Li You and walked out.
Li Mo looked at Su Xiaorou, only to see her standing in the middle of the tent with a frightened face.
Somehow, he felt an inexplicable pain in his heart, and walked over and whispered, "You, it doesn't matter, right?" ”
"Prince......" Xiaorou called out to the prince, and then cried with a "wow".
For a while, Su Xiaorou's heart swelled with infinite sadness.
After a few months of drifting, I can't go back to my home; months of incognito, women disguised as men; Tonight, she was bullied by the third prince again, the more she thought about it, the more she felt wronged, and her tears fell down like beads with broken threads, and she couldn't stop it.
Li Mo was at a loss for what to do, he had always been an introverted person, although he was heartbroken with Su Xiaorou at the moment, he didn't know how to express it, and he didn't know how to comfort this little comb who was crying like a child.
After a pause, Li Mo took out a satin handkerchief from his arms and handed it to Su Xiaorou: "Don't cry anymore, I promise that I won't let him provoke you again." ”
"Prince, I want to leave the palace...... I don't want to go back to the palace again, please ......" Su Xiaorou took the silk handkerchief, and before she stopped crying, she sobbed and choked.
"You're leaving?" Li Mo said in surprise.
"Hmm." Su Xiaorou's tears did not dry, she looked at the prince and nodded pitifully, and then said, "Please let the prince let me go tomorrow, I won't go back to the palace." ”
Li Mo didn't speak, his eyes looked at the tent that was blown by the night wind, as if he was thinking about something.
Xiao Rou also stopped sobbing at this time, and the tent suddenly fell silent, and a strange, almost strange atmosphere flowed quietly in the air.
After a long time, Li Mo looked at Su Xiaorou and said, "If I say, I don't want you to leave the palace......"
He paused, looked away, and seemed to muster up a lot of courage before saying, "I am reluctant to let you go, will you stay?" ”
Su Xiaorou was stunned, she looked at the prince standing in front of her, the prince who was once so distant and strange, but now it seemed so close and so kind.
At this moment, her calm heart lake was like a breeze sweeping across the water, rippling in waves.
Neither spoke anymore. At night, it was as silent as the empty valley of the eastern mountains.
However, both of them knew that something new and indescribable was stretching warmly between the two of them at the moment......
The next day, because of the episode in the night, the atmosphere was noticeably less cheerful than the hunt the day before.
The third prince Li You and the crown prince were in a state of opposition, the prince didn't say a word, he still had a cold attitude, and he didn't even glance at the tail of his eyes.
Only the second prince Li Rui didn't know what was going on, according to his character, he still laughed and laughed, but almost no one responded.
Looking at Xiaorou again, it seems that she has become a little different from before, and has been following Li Mo closely, very docile and seems to have a touch of melancholy.
Everyone was not in high spirits, and Li Mo said, "Then go back to the palace early." ”
Li Rui rode to Su Xiaorou: "Come on, I'll take you back." ”
Su Xiaorou hesitated for a moment and looked at Li Mo with her eyes.
Li Mo didn't say a word, stopped her waist and picked her up, and put her on his horse: "Second Emperor Brother, I'll bring a small comb when I go back." Then he turned on his horse and galloped away in the direction of the court.
Li Rui smiled faintly disapprehantly, but his heart seemed to be stunned......
On the ninth day of September, the Royal Palace.
Today is the day of the wedding of the crown prince Li Mo and the daughter of the prime minister, Su Xiaorou.
The marriage of the prince is a great joy in the world.
The palace has long been lit up, with red letters of happiness pasted on the doors and windows, red lanterns hung under the eaves, and red candles lit on the table. The palace maids and eunuchs also changed into festive clothes, shuttling and busy.
The concubines and ladies are even more glamorous, dressed up in colorful colors, rich and noble, and the whole palace presents a lively and festive atmosphere.
Prime Minister Su's daughter married the crown prince, and the two sons Su Junwen and Su Junwu, who were stationed at the border pass, rushed back thousands of miles to personally accompany their only sister Su Xiaorou to marry into the court.
And Prime Minister Su's third son, Su Junchu, who has an excellent demeanor and often goes in and out of the palace on weekdays, unexpectedly did not appear at his sister's grand wedding.
According to Prime Minister Su, when he returned to the emperor for questioning, he said that San'er was suddenly unwell, and he was sick in bed at the moment, so it was really not suitable to go out.
Nian Nian was covered with a red hijab, and he was in a daze all day. I feel like I am surrounded by people and I am here all at once, I am there all at once, I kneel this at once, I worship that at once.
Anyway, everywhere there was a noisy and joyful sound filling her eardrums, and she felt extremely tired and bored. I thought that it was really troublesome to marry into the palace in ancient times, so many etiquette ceremonies, red tape, it really made people fall apart.
Finally, the two bridesmaids carried her into a room that seemed to be relatively quiet, helped her to sit down in one place, and said respectfully: "Please take a rest in the cave room, and the prince will come later." ”
Bridal chamber? Oh my god!
When Nian Nian heard this word, he jumped up suddenly.
frightened the two bridesmaids, looked at each other and didn't dare to ask her anything, I just felt that this princess was really a little strange.
