Chapter 117: Give Me a Reason
The place where Gu Ziyi put down the fine dust was just under the high wall inside the gate of the palace, he slammed the thin dust wall on the wall, supported it on the wall with one hand, and stroked the face of the fine dust with the other hand, so that the thin dust looked at him, "I like you, do you like me?" ”
Gu Ziyi's question was simple, direct and rude, without embellishment, Xianchen's gaze wandered, and she didn't dare to look at Gu Ziyi's gaze, she also liked Gu Ziyi, but what is the relationship between the county lord of Leyun and Gu Ziyi?
Xian Chen turned her face, unwilling to look at Gu Ziyi, afraid that she would not be able to withstand the temptation and fall into Gu Ziyi's warmth and couldn't extricate herself, she wanted to push Gu Ziyi away, but Gu Ziyi got closer to her, and his whole body was about to lean on Xian Chen's body, "Do you already have someone else in your heart?" ”。
When he asked this sentence, Gu Ziyi's Adam's apple rolled a few times, and a sourness surged to his heart, making his throat feel as if it had been burned by strong acid.
"No, I don't have anyone else in my heart, Gu Ziyi, let me ask you, what is the relationship between you and the Lord of Leyun?"
Facing Gu Ziyi's seriousness, Xianchen also treated her seriously, her eyes looked directly into Gu Ziyi's eyes, and Gu Ziyi was not allowed to lie and deceive her.
Gu Ziyi smiled, his smile was as bright as spring, was his silly girl jealous? How could this stupid girl connect herself with the Lord of Leyun?
On the side of the red wall of King Rui's Mansion, a man slammed the woman on the wall, the smile on the man's face was brighter than the sun in the sky, his eyes looked at the woman dotingly, and said seriously: "Innocent relationship." ”
After that, the man gave birth to a bony hand, and his index finger picked up the woman's soft chin, and the atmosphere around him was ambiguous, and even the sun was embarrassed to hide in the clouds.
Seeing that the man's sexy lips were about to cover the woman's lips, the sound of horses' hooves and shouts interrupted this ambiguity, "Third brother, third brother, you go into the palace quickly, Gu Zichen entered the palace to find his father." ”
A domineering kiss did not fall and stopped in mid-air, and the sun also took the opportunity to slip out.
Xian Chen obviously felt that Gu Ziyi's big palm around his waist stiffened, Gu Ziqi rushed to tell Gu Ziyi at this time, what does it mean that Gu Zichen has entered the palace? Why did Gu Ziyi's reaction be so big?
Xianchen was full of doubts, there were some things she didn't know, but Gu Ziyi and they knew, did they need to talk about it? Gu Zichen must have entered the palace to find Emperor Ji Wu to marry.
Don't be in a hurry to think about it, "Go, get on the horse, and enter the palace." Gu Ziyi hugged Xianchen on the horse again, and the three of them rode two horses, and quickly whipped their horses and rode away in the direction of the palace.
Dust didn't know what was going on; But seeing Gu Ziyi and Gu Ziqi's serious and gloomy faces, Xian Chen guessed that something must have happened, and this matter was related to him, otherwise how could Gu Ziyi bring himself into the palace as well?
Tonight, the palace is going to have a melon feast, and the palace maids and eunuchs in the palace are busy, going back and forth in the palace one after another, and the prosperous world is busy.
The melon banquet is also a reception banquet set up by the Imperial Palace of Ji for the envoys of Wurong State, and there is less than an hour to go, and the melon banquet is about to start, Emperor Ji Wu is about to get up and leave the imperial study to rush to the Taihe Hall after approving the last book, and Gu Zichen came to the imperial study.
He knelt down on one knee in front of Emperor Ji Wu, clasped his hands into fists and said straight to the point: "Father, the son wants to ask the father to give the eldest daughter of the Ran Mansion to the son as his wife at today's melon banquet. ”
Emperor Ji Wu, who retired to the imperial study, took off his dragon robe and wore a loose and light robe, more casual and less restrained, his gray hair was pulled up in a bun at will, and a warm and flawless white jade hairpin fixed him, simple but extraordinary.
In the imperial study, if the left side of the large Huanghuali desk is full of a small hill like a small hill, the right side is neatly and orderly placed with the four treasures of the study, and there is an incense burner in the upper right corner, wafting out curling smoke to refresh the mind.
Gu Zichen's sudden appearance caught Emperor Ji Wu off guard, he was startled at first, and then immediately asked, "Chen'er, haven't I already married you and the Ran family's daughter-in-law, Ran Huaying?" ”
"No, father, this time I want to ask my father to give the eldest lady of the Ran family, Ran Xianchen, to his son as his wife."
Emperor Ji Wu's eagle-like eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at Gu Zichen, who was kneeling on one knee under the desk, "If you want me to marry you again, what are you going to do with that Ran Huaying of the Ran family?" ”
"Father, I want to marry Ran Xianchen and marry Ran Huayan, in ancient times, there was a good story that Empress E's daughters and sisters married Di Shun as their wives, and helped Di Shun get out of danger and assisted each other, and the sons wanted to follow Di Shun and marry the Ran sisters as their wives, they were no different from each other, and they were equal wives and respected and loved each other."
Gu Ziyi, who stepped into the imperial study after stepping in, Gu Ziqi and Xianchen all heard Gu Zichen's words, Xianchen was scorched by thunder, when did she provoke Gu Zichen's rotten peach blossom? What kind of flat wife, he Gu Zichen also takes himself too seriously, right?
"I don't agree." Xianchen refuted Gu Zichen bluntly.
Emperor Ji Wu raised his eyes, only to see Gu Ziqi and Gu Ziyi both entered the imperial study, "Sons see their father, long live their father, long live, long live." The two princes bowed in unison.
Gu Ziyi's sudden appearance made Emperor Ji Wudi's pupils constrict, and he was stunned for a moment, and then his gaze fell on the woman who was following them.
This woman has a dignified demeanor, a cold complexion, a refined temperament, ice and jade, bright eyes and bright teeth, beautiful as a fairy in a painting, step by step to come to him without humility or arrogance, kneeling and bowing, "The courtier Ran Xianchen has seen my emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live." ”
Although the woman bowed to the ground, she could not hide the arrogance of her body, such a woman made people's eyes shine, Emperor Ji Wu swept over his sons in front of him, and then his eyes fell on Xian Chen, "You are the Ran Xian Chen who made the Ran Mansion restless?" ”
Emperor Ji Wudi's words were very sharp, he was talking about Xianchen pretending to be ugly and pretending to be ugly after returning from Jiaozhou, and dug up all the black history in Ran's mansion, right?
Xian Chen smiled indifferently and didn't explain for herself, because she knew that the more she explained, the more Emperor Ji Wu would find her stubble, she looked at Emperor Ji Wu, the words were correct and round, sonorous and powerful, neither humble nor arrogant: "If you go back to the emperor, it is the courtier." ”
Such a straightforward answer is really unexpected, "Hmph......" Emperor Ji Wu raised his eyebrows and snorted coldly, "Dare to act, and have a bit of guts." His eyes swept over his three sons again, and finally his sharp gaze fell on Xian Chen, and said contemptuously: "Come to think of it, your methods are not simple, right?" ”
Emperor Ji Wu's insinuation means that Xianchen doesn't understand? She was holding back the ghost fire in her belly, thinking to herself Who did I provoke, and it became my fault to be entangled in rotten peach blossoms?
She could only look at him left and right, and replied, "The means of killing cattle and removing bones are indeed a must." ”
Gu Ziyi laughed, can this girl be naughty again?
The black line on Gu Ziqi's forehead, this girl is so bold, the person who dares to talk to Emperor Ji Wu like this, except for Concubine Yun, she is the first.
Gu Zichen frowned slightly, what did Xianchen mean? What kind of killing cattle and removing bones, can't she be a lady and be more serious in front of her father?
Three people with three different thoughts, Gu Ziyi is spoiled, Gu Ziqi is worried, this Gu Zichen can't tell what he thinks, will "female cattle killer" sound too unbearable?
This girl is quite a bit of Concubine Yun's temperament back then, unprecedented, Emperor Ji Wu was not angry, he just looked at Xian Chen.
The woman's Gujing Wubo's eyes are not shocked, there is the calmness of Mount Tai collapsing in front and the face does not change, the beautiful facial features are fresh and refined, like the Youlan of the empty valley but not lonely and self-appreciative, there is arrogance but no arrogance, in the face of him, the emperor who is high in the country, there is no low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, only neither humble nor arrogant.
Emperor Ji Wu's sharp eyes like an eagle falcon fell on Xian Chen, "Why don't you agree to King Kang's request for marriage?" Give me a reason. ”
"His Royal Highness King Kang is Xianchen's brother-in-law, now, in the future, and in the future, Xianchen is not everyone's lady, there is no beautiful mind, Xianchen's heart is very small, and he can't tolerate his future husband and other women around him.
What's more, Xian Chen didn't recognize that the legend of Empress E's daughter Ying serving a husband said by His Royal Highness King Kang was a good story, and in Xian Chen's eyes, how could Empress E'e not rob a husband together, and beg for the love that Quanming fought for in secret, and Xian Chen didn't need it. ”
Xian Chen is still neither humble nor arrogant, her words seem familiar, and the phantom of a woman appears in Emperor Ji Wu's mind.
"Xianchen, this king can not marry Ran Huaying, and this king can only marry you as his wife." Gu Zichen explained.
Is it difficult that His Royal Highness King Kang can't hear my refusal? The master said that he couldn't drag the mud and water in the face of feelings, and Xian Chen simply refused completely: "Your Royal Highness King Kang, you misunderstood, Xian Chen's meaning is in Xian Chen's eyes, whether His Royal Highness is or will be her husband, whether Your Highness marries or not, it has nothing to do with Xian Chen, because there is no His Royal Highness King Kang in Xian Chen's heart." ”
Gu Zichen is the prince who was pampered and grown up by Emperor Ji Wu in the palm of his hand, and he is also the prince who was praised to the sky by the courtiers, such a person who has been held up since he was a child will be a little proud, conceited, arrogant, and arrogant, in his opinion, there is no woman he can't want, only a woman he doesn't want.
This time, Gu Zichen was completely rejected by Xian Chen, and his proud self-esteem was hurt like never before, lost, and silent......
"Father, before the son sent troops to exterminate the Dongyin people, the father promised the son, as long as the son can successfully exterminate the Dongyin people, the father will promise the son a condition, the son wants to ask the father, can the father's promise still count?" Gu Ziyi opened his mouth.
"You don't have any jokes, what I said will naturally count." Emperor Ji Wu knew that Gu Ziyi was a calm-minded person, and his request would not be excessive.
"The minister will ask his father to fulfill the promise of the day now, and the son will ask his father to give Xianchen a holy decree of independent marriage, and Xu Xianchen will marry the man she likes."
Startled! Indissoluble! Regretful! Move!
The atmosphere in the study became strange, not tense than nervous, not frozen rather than solid.
Emperor Ji Wu was stunned, he didn't expect that a promise he gave to Gu Ziyi was actually used by Gu Ziyi on a woman's body for free, if he asked him to give Ran Xianchen a marriage to him, Emperor Ji Wu still figured it out, how could this holy decree of giving Ran Xianchen a marriage autonomy was a thing?
Gu Zichen couldn't understand such a good opportunity, why didn't Gu Ziyi directly ask Emperor Ji Wu for Xianchen?
Gu Ziqi regretted that why didn't the third brother seize the opportunity and directly asked his father for the military power back?
After thinking about it again, he felt that his third brother had done the right thing, if his third brother asked Emperor Ji Wu for military power, would his father and ninth brother still be able to tolerate him?
Xian Chen didn't expect that Gu Ziyi used the opportunity to fulfill his promise in front of Emperor Ji Wu in exchange for his life, he was respecting her choice, he understood her, Xian Chen had love for Gu Ziyi in his heart, and he was even more moved by sympathy at this moment.
