First Sight Chapter 19: The Betrothal Part II

I secretly complained to myself, and in my heart I slandered Han Qi for not being righteous, and I wanted to take the opportunity to slip away, but I heard the calm and solemn voice of the queen mother and her old man coming from the main hall

"Here, here, show the princess."

I wiped the sweat from my forehead, but fortunately, the Queen Mother and her old man knew the righteousness. I secretly breathed a sigh of relief, although there were many people in the hall, they all acted on the queen's face, and the queen acted on the queen mother's face.

The Queen Mother spoke slowly, and the sense of oppression that was not angry and self-authoritative made every concubine present dare not act rashly, for fear that one would be careless and displeased the Queen Mother.

"I called you this day...... It is to discuss the marriage of the twelve princesses of Qi and Han Qi, the third prince of our dynasty. ”

My mind is blank, I have long forgotten for so many years that I am actually here to kiss, but why is it Han Qi, he obviously doesn't like me.

I hurriedly got up and bowed to the Queen Mother in a dignified manner.

"I don't want to marry Han Qi"

As soon as these words came out, everyone changed color, holding their breath, but they saw the queen mother in the high hall, and her face changed from yellow to purple and red.

But I don't think what I said is wrong, Han Qi doesn't like me, and he won't like me if I'm with him, so why should I get married.

Han Qi looked at me with a shocked expression, as if he didn't expect me to speak disrespectfully in front of the Queen Mother.

"Nonsense! Whether to marry or not is up to you!"

The Queen Mother said sharply, her brows tightened, and the Queen saw the situation and got up to appease the Queen Mother.

My attitude was very resolute, and I was about to express my position to the Queen Mother, but before I could speak, Han Qi hurriedly stepped down from the chair.

walked to my side, leaned over and said respectfully to the Queen Mother

"Grandma Huang, Luo'er doesn't mean this, what she means is that her sons don't have much contact with her, if according to the etiquette of Qi State, men and women always have to get along for a year and a half before they can marry a wife."

I was a little confused, and when I think about it carefully, I have never had such an absurd system in my Qi country. I took a look at the Queen Mother's attitude, and it seemed to be calmer again.

"Is that so?"

The Queen Mother asked me with a calm face.

It is true that I think people should not tell lies to deceive others in the world, and I was about to speak, but Han Qi pinched me while people were not paying attention, and I only felt that the place where I was pinched by him was hot and painful.

This can pinch me a spirit, it is true that it is not right to tell a lie, but occasionally telling a lie may also add a lot of color to life, so I am very stable without blushing and heartbeat

"Returning to the Queen Mother, Qi Guo is polite and legal, men and women need to get along for a year and a half before they get married."

I felt a little uneasy in my heart, for some reason, I always felt that I was scolded by Han Qi, but I couldn't say what was wrong, Han Qi knew more rules than me, in short, there must be no problem according to his words.

But what I never expected was that the Queen Mother's next words were really shocking, and there was no one before or since.

I saw that it had a knowing look on its face, and it spoke slowly, its voice was neither high nor low, and its speed of speech was neither fast nor slow

"Come on, send all the things in the princess's palace to the palace of the three princes, a few days ago, didn't the emperor already give the mansion, you can move all the belongings of the twelve princesses by the way......"

Oh my God, I'm moving in with Han Qi!

"The Queen Mother thinks twice"

All the concubines and queens knelt down, which is not in accordance with the etiquette law, it is true that no matter which dynasty the etiquette is followed, men and women are not allowed to live together before they are married.

But I'm really dumb now, I can't say what I have to say, and I have to jump into the pit I dug horizontally.

"According to what you say, when will my old woman see her grandchildren and daughters-in-law get married, do you want to wait for me to die and not see the situation of four generations in the same house!"

The Queen Mother said angrily. Everyone couldn't help but shudder, and I caught a glimpse of Han Qi standing next to me, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, saying that he was unhappy, and there was a look of displeasure on his face, which was clearly a look of eating melons and watching a good show.

The whole audience was speechless, all looking at the queen's face and acting, I also hoped that the queen mother could persuade the queen mother to let her take back her life, but the queen waved her sleeve robe and ordered the people below

"Just do it according to the Queen Mother's instructions, don't ask for instructions"

My only hope was dashed......

"In that case, let's choose an auspicious day in three years, and let's hold the wedding."

The Queen Mother said casually, listening to the thrilling audience, Han Qi looked at it with a smile, and I could only kneel without love.

After returning to the palace, I thought I could sleep peacefully, but I saw that the eunuchs who came in and out of my palace were endless, and Youqing couldn't stop one but the other.

I knew that the queen had decreed that I should move to the palace of the king of Qi to live, but I didn't expect that the efficiency of things in this palace would be so fast.

"Wait a minute, it's already so late, the palace ban has been implemented, can't you move again tomorrow?"

I grabbed a little eunuch, who lowered his head and didn't look at me, and said in a soft voice.

"The Queen Mother has ordered, and I will do it today."

After saying that, he lifted the box on the ground and hurriedly carried it into the carriage, as if he were afraid that he would be eaten by me if he was too late.

I'm getting ready to get angry, it's too bullying, it's so late, where do I sleep?

Suddenly, someone behind me grabbed my hand, and before I could react, I was pulled into his arms. This man's chest was as hard as a wall, and I had a splitting headache when I hit it.

"You ......"

I touched my head and looked up to get into a big fight with him. When Youqing saw me fall into his arms, he hurriedly separated us.

Only then did I see the person who came, Han Qi looked at my lost soul and didn't speak, I was angry, but he came just in time

"Why did you say those words to deceive the Queen Mother, now you are satisfied."

He looked at me with some amusement, waited quietly for me to finish speaking, and finally said to me helplessly and irrelevantly.

"How can you blame me, if it weren't for you telling the Queen Mother that you didn't want to marry me, would I come forward to help you out of the siege?"

I was a little angry, and I said it without words

"Then I have to thank His Royal Highness the Third Prince for relieving me from the siege?"

"It's ...... nature"

I couldn't talk about him, decided not to pay attention to him, turned around and was about to go back to the palace, but his arm was grabbed by him, and he couldn't break free no matter what, and the palace maids and eunuchs next to him whispered and exchanged heads.

I glared at him angrily and motioned for him to let go of his hand, and the people behind me were watching, and he also winked at me, and the strength of his hand was even stronger.

"Someone in the back is watching, you let go of me."

I leaned in and bit his ear, but the man pretended not to hear, raised his voice a pitch, and continued

"Where else can you go if you don't sleep in my house today?"

Oh my God, in front of so many people, how could he say such a thing, originally those chamberlains didn't understand the queen mother's intentions, and when he shouted like this, everyone in the palace knew about it.

There are more and more people watching the excitement around, and if it goes on like this, if I meet the emperor and queen, I really have a life to come, and I have no life to leave.

"Can't I go back with you, you let me go first."

I whispered to him, and he wouldn't stop when he heard this, and I twisted his wrist, which had been strangled red. As soon as I turned my head, I just wanted to find a crack in the ground and bury myself in it.

As far as the eye can see, the black pressure is full of people, and even the soldiers on patrol are attracted to watch the excitement, I just felt that someone was whispering, but I didn't know that there were so many people watching.

I only felt that my whole body was red and purple from my face to the tips of my toes, and I almost fainted on the spot.

"It's all gone."

Han Qi's cold voice came from behind him, and all the people left. I turned around and saw Han Qi's smiling face, as if to speak

"Look, I helped you again, how do you thank me?"

I rolled my eyes at him widely.

When I walked down the street, the bustling market during the day faded into dark blue ruins at dusk, and the breeze blew the corner of my eyes, and when I saw the plaque of the Drunken Flower Pavilion again, I couldn't help but sink in my heart.

The speed of the carriage may be due to the fact that the streets are empty. I couldn't help but ask him

"Do you know Shen Yuzhi?"

I probably didn't think about it, but this sentence stopped him. He looked sideways at me, a look of surprise in his eyes, and only after a half ring did he speak

"He is a fierce general in my account, and you are a lady in the palace, so why ask about the affairs of the court, it is really taboo."

I lowered my head indifferently, it was true that I had expected him to know that Shen Yuzhi had such an ability to hide a living person in this world, except for the royal relatives and nobles.

In the twilight, when I walked to the palace of King Qi, the guards guarding the door finally opened the door, and the bright light stung my eyes.

There are five main gates in the palace, seven rooms in the main hall, the eve is protected by a stone railing, and the palace is equipped with a screen throne. There are nine rooms on both sides of the Ji Building, seven rooms of the temple, seven rooms of the back building, and the main entrance hall is covered with green glazed tiles.

There are a variety of palace lamps hanging beside the bucket arch covered with bricks and stones, and the flying dragon and phoenix feathers are engraved on the high wall, which is magnificent, Guidian Lan Palace.

Rao has been walking in the streets and alleys for a long time, and now I can't help but admire his ingenuity. One of the insiders led me through the inclined corridor, through three or five palace gates, before I arrived.

The night was slightly cool, and the cold wind had crept in, inadvertently taking away a lot of residual warmth. When he opened his eyes again, Han Qi had already walked to the couch and hesitated for a long time before he slowly spoke.

"Come with me when you are dressed, and I will take you to meet someone."

I wandered around, not knowing when this man had broken into my temple early in the morning, but I was not astonished.

He led me to a white-clothed house, in the middle of nowhere, in the middle of nowhere, where a thin gentleman sat in the atrium, his eyes gone, and he was lifeless.

I was a little surprised, although I had never seen this man, Rao was skinny, but it was not difficult to see that his age did not match his appearance, about twenty-three or four, but he had the appearance of sixty or seventy.

Han Qi and I hesitated for a long time, slowly entered the atrium, and then spoke, it was a thunderbolt from the sky.

"General Shen, long time no see......"
