Chapter 19 The Trees Want to Be Quiet and the Wind Doesn't Stop
After two days, I already feel better, and although I don't walk like a fly, I can move freely.
I felt very bored these days lying on the bed, so I ordered Qianrou to move a wicker chair to the yard, sit in the shade of the tree and read the book with melon seeds, which was really uncomfortable.
But this emperor's words are too boring, the same talented and beautiful women chant poems to play the piano and sing the music, and there is no plot of a private meeting over the wall, it is said that the official family does not write, I looked at it for a while and fell asleep, and finally really fell asleep.
I woke up after sleeping for a while, in the twilight of spring, I was wrapped in sackcloth, as if I had worn a few more clothes, and I was sticky, so I wanted to call the shallow soft water bath, and I was about to get up but saw my father, eldest brother, third brother, and sister-in-law all sitting at the stone table in the courtyard, all looking at me with sad faces, and I couldn't help but push the melon seeds in front of them: "Everyone, what is unhappy to say to make me happy?" ”
The eldest brother spoke first: "Ah Mo, King Yu was ordered to visit you two days ago, what did you say to him?" ”
Ordered to visit? Oh, it turned out that the Holy God ordered him to come, no wonder he spoke in a weird way.
"I didn't say anything, I just asked him to send a few guards to drive away those who came to the door," I said, "but I didn't expect him to do it." ”
The third brother smiled sadly: "It's done." ”
I rejoiced, "Really? This King Yu is quite reliable! ”
Daddy took out a bright yellow scroll of holy decrees from his sleeve and handed it to me, and said weakly, "See for yourself." ”
When I saw him like this, I suddenly felt a great uneasiness rise in my heart.
I opened the decree, and behold, the mighty and powerful handwriting of the Holy One:
Fengtian transported, the emperor said:
I heard that You Zimo, the daughter of the Marquis of Dingyuan, You Zimo, was virtuous, gentle, and good-looking, and the Queen Mother and I were very happy to hear it. Now the fifth son of the emperor, An Chengyan, has reached the time of marriage, and he should choose a virtuous woman to match. In the boudoir of Zimo, and the fifth son of the emperor can be called made in heaven and earth, in order to become the beauty of the beauty, you will be matched with the fifth son of the emperor as the princess. All etiquette will be handled jointly by the Ministry of Rites and the Qintian Supervisor, and the marriage will be completed on a good day.
The proclamation is at home and abroad, and the salty envoy hears it.
Chin this
I felt a roar in my head, horrified: "This ...... It's ......"
Virtuous and virtuous? Gentle? Outstanding? Which one do I have? What do you mean by me?!
I read the decree over and over again, and I was so anxious that I cried, "What's going on? ”
The eldest brother said: "The day before yesterday, King Yu came to visit, and when he went back, he wrote a note, saying that he was pleased with you, and asked His Majesty to give him a marriage and marry the daughter of the Marquis of Dingyuan." ”
This King Yu is a fool, right? Pleased with me? His aesthetic is too peculiar, isn't it? Or did I say something that made him misunderstood? Yes, I said that day that although I didn't marry him, there were many people who came to ask for marriage, and he thought I wanted to marry him? I just want to go back to the day when King Yu came to visit, and smacked myself a few times: make you owe, let you owe!
I anxiously pulled my father's sleeve: "Daddy, can you go and ask Your Majesty to take back your life?" I don't want to get married, and I don't want to stay in the imperial capital! ”
"Nonsense!" Daddy threw me away and blackened his face at me for the first time, "Your Majesty didn't ask for my opinion at all, and today you directly announced the holy decree in the palace and announced it to the world, how can you take it back?" ”
I was dumbfounded: is this necessary to marry? I don't even know what he looks like!
Two packets of tears suddenly filled my eyes: "Daddy, I don't want to get married." ”
Daddy's tone softened, and he said with annoyance: "It's because I didn't think about it, someone came to make trouble the day before yesterday, so I went to receive ......."
The sister-in-law also blamed herself: "Father-in-law, the slave family is also responsible." ”
The eldest brother grabbed the shoulders of the sister-in-law and comforted: "Hugh blames himself, this is not something you can control." The sister-in-law sobbed and leaned her head into his neck.
I really want to say, don't show affection at this time, okay?
The third brother's eyes flashed and said, "Big brother is right, this matter is not something you and I can control." The day before yesterday, no matter what Ah Mo said, this marriage would be given. ”
We were all surprised when we heard this, and my father said, "How can you see it?" ”
The third brother said: "Your Majesty's purpose is to keep Amo in Beijing, and marriage is the best way." The forces in Beijing are complicated, the crown prince, the fourth prince and the sixth prince, and the marriage of his father with any faction is like a tiger with wings, which His Majesty does not want to see, and his father can only be loyal to His Majesty. ”
The eldest brother picked up his words: "If you want to find someone who can contain your father and have no threat to the court, then there is only His Royal Highness King Yu." ”
"King Yu is not treated well by His Majesty, he has no power in Beijing at all, and he is a prince, judging from his family background, he is indeed the best candidate." The third brother said, "Your Majesty ordered him to thank him in person, and it has already been calculated, and men outside the women's boudoir are not allowed to enter, so that Your Majesty can give marriage on the grounds that King Yu must be responsible for Ah Mo." ”
"Doesn't Imperial Doctor He often come to see me?" How did you get to King Yu is another way.
"Mrs. He is a doctor, and he is an exception." The sister-in-law said, "And there are curtains in the way, so it's okay." ”
The third brother continued: "King Yu probably guessed what His Majesty meant, but he just acted in a scene. ”
"But he doesn't like me, and I don't like him," I pouted, "how can you be so hasty in your marriage?" ”
"What do you like or dislike, the royal family has always been cold, marriage to him is just chips, transactions and bets," Daddy stood up, as if he was very tired, and his voice was a little older, "Ah Mo, it's Daddy who can't stand you." ”
When I saw my father like this, I felt very sad, and I hurriedly comforted him: "Daddy Hugh wants to say this, maybe, maybe King Yu is really pleased with me......" My voice became smaller and smaller, and even I didn't believe it.
Daddy's eyes lingered on the faces of me, the third brother and the eldest brother, and suddenly laughed more ugly than crying: "You are all older, you can't protect your father for a while, so you can do it yourself in the future." ”
"That's it, I'm going back to rest for my father."
"The boy sent his father back." The eldest brother was busy.
Daddy shook his head at him, and walked away in despair, muttering as he went: "The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, the tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop......"
I realized that my father's back was not as straight as before, his hair was gray, my heart was like a knife, and tears flowed down the corners of my eyes to my mouth, salty and bitter.
When my father walked away, I asked the third brother: "Third brother, is there really no room for maneuver in this matter?" ”
The third brother was silent, and the eldest brother said worriedly: "How can this be maneuvered?" Unless you misbehave, do something out of the ordinary, and let King Yu personally withdraw from the marriage, but this is Your Majesty's will, and it is impossible for King Yu to be disobedient. ”
That's right, since I arrived in the imperial capital, I have been misbehaving, and I have done a lot of things out of line, and King Yu can still be "happy" with me, and I have to marvel at this King Yu's ability to open his eyes and tell nonsense is simply the peak.
"Divorce?!" The sister-in-law exclaimed, "Husband Junxiu wants to talk nonsense, unless my sister has a marriage contract, this is withdrawn for no reason, and my sister's reputation will be ruined!" ”
I said in my heart that even if King Yu abandoned me, my father would welcome me home with open arms.
Wait a minute!
"Sister-in-law, what did you just say?"
"The slave family said that if you are divorced for no reason, your reputation will be ruined!"
"Not this one!"
"Which one is that?" The sister-in-law thought for a moment, "Unless my sister has a marriage contract?" ”
She exclaimed again: "My sister has a marriage contract? ”
My third brother and I both saw the sparkle of stars in each other's eyes.
The eldest brother suddenly remembered something, and said loudly: "Don't think about it! Father won't admit it! ”
