On the night of the beginning of winter, Cui Jinyuan replaced Gu Huaijin's bed with a thick quilt. She was concentrating, and was suddenly pulled out by Gu Huaijin.

"Your Highness, what are you doing?"

Gu Huaijin rubbed his cold hands, took out a piece of Luo Sha from his sleeve and put it on Cui Jinyuan's eyes.

Cui Jinyuan was helpless, "Your Highness is naughty again." ”

"Why, I'll take you to see a good thing."

Gu Huaijin's eager appearance amused Cui Jinyuan, she didn't struggle, and let Gu Huaijin lead her away.

When he arrived at the study, Gu Huaijin untied the yarn for Cui Jinyuan.

It was pitch black in front of her, Cui Jinyuan blinked uncomfortably, and Gu Huaijin led her a few steps inside. This time, Gu Huaijin's hands were very warm, and the scorching heat transmitted by his fingertips made Cui Jinyuan a little nervous.

She shifted her gaze, but saw the fluorescence flickering in front of her, and a picture of a hundred birds and phoenixes appeared in the air, and the dense and delicate needles and threads all showed the intentions of the embroiderer.

Cui Jinyuan suddenly understood something, and looked at Gu Huaijin in shock. In the dark, his facial features could not be distinguished, and he could only vaguely distinguish the outline. But she knew that his dark eyes were full of tenderness at this time.

Gu Huaijin picked up the palace lamp at hand and slowly lit the candle.

Cui Jinyuan looked at the "Si Yueyin" in front of her, she couldn't hold back her tears for a while, she almost cried, she bit her lip and endured it.

"You said it was the dream of all dancers, and I knew it was your dream too."

Gu Huaijin's deep voice sounded in his ears, and he was very close to her.

She choked up and said, "Why is Your Highness doing this? The servant is not worthy of His Highness. ”

"You deserve it, and your joyful appearance makes me happy." Gu Huaijin looked at her eyes deeply, like a pool of spring water, making people want to fall into it forever, "Next time, don't sing those sad songs, I will protect you, you won't be them." ”

Cui Jinyuan couldn't hold back any longer, and buried herself in Gu Huaijin's arms crying. Gu Huaijin paused and gently placed her hands on her shoulders. The corners of his lips were slightly raised, but his eyes were clear.

The marriage between Wangshu and Gu Huaiyu was finally set on the twenty-sixth day of the winter month, which was an auspicious day specially ordered by His Majesty to be calculated by Taishi Ling. Gu Huaiyu was named King Yong and gave him a mansion, and he could move over after the mansion was repaired after marriage.

After half the night, Wangshu was awakened by Zero Dew to make up, and the people were also busy walking in and out.

Because he married into the royal family, the marriage specifications are not as good as those of the people, and the phoenix crown is worn on his body, as if he weighs a thousand pounds, and he is so relieved that he can't breathe.

Wangshu suddenly asked, "Is Miss Sirou here?" ”

Ling Lu helped her straighten the crown of her hair, "Isn't the girl confused?" Whatever she is called, it will be good if she does not break up the girl's marriage. ”

Wang Shu's hand brushed the tassel earrings, and she looked at the delicately dressed person in the bronze mirror, only feeling very strange.

"Call her, although I am not close to her, but it is the last time I met before I got married, and I still have some things to explain."

Ling Lu picked up Gong Xuan's hand and put it down again, biting her lip, "The maid will go now." ”

As soon as Ling Lu left, Lu Youqing walked in. She picked up the comb on the makeup, carefully helped Wangshu comb her hair, and muttered: "One comb to the end, the second to the white hair to the eyebrows, the third to the children and grandchildren, the fourth to the four silver shoots." ”

After saying that, her eyes were already full of tears, and Wangshu was also a little sad when she was infected, and she gently held her mother's hand.

Lu Youqing took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his eyes, and said reluctantly: "I don't know if this marriage is a blessing or a curse." The world only says that it is good to marry into a high gate, but it is also as deep as the sea when it enters the Hou Gate. Others don't know your personality, how can I not know, although you are smart and can protect yourself, but sometimes you are too stubborn and sharp, unwilling to be soft, but you are married to a prince, and you may become a prince and a king in the future, I am afraid that the palace gate will not be able to accommodate you. ”

"How could I not be afraid?" Wangshu sighed and patted the back of Lu Youqing's hand, but his eyes were very resolute, "But I never believe in fate, mother rest assured, the path chosen by my daughter will be completed even if she is kneeling." ”

Lu Youqing nodded, but at this time Ling Lu came in, Wangshu glanced at the door, and said to Lu Youqing: "Mother must have not slept well for me, let's go and recuperate, I will return to the door in a few days, I will always see you." ”

"Okay."

After Lu Youqing left, Wangshu asked Ling Lu, "Are people here?" ”

"Here we are."

As soon as the words fell, Xiao Sirou walked in.

Her face was a little haggard, and she didn't seem to sleep well, but even so, her flamboyant momentum had not diminished in the slightest.

"Xiao Wangshu, what are you looking for me? If it's to show me off, you're looking for the wrong person. ”

Wangshu let Ling Lu retreat first, and then said with a smile: "It turns out that I have such an image in my sister's heart." ”

Seeing that she seemed to be a normal person, Xiao Sirou was very angry, "Otherwise? If you hadn't hurt me last time, how could I have been misunderstood by Cousin Huaiyu. ”

"Sister, you have to make it clear, who is harming whom?" Wangshu raised his eyes and looked over, soaked in the frost and cold of autumn, "It has always been that people don't offend me, I don't offend people, I will never harm others first, if there is really that day, it is just to protect myself." ”

Wangshu's eyes were very sharp, and Xiao Sirou was a little weak-hearted, but she only shrank for a moment, and then let go again.

"Yes, I hurt you! But that's because I hate you, why did you get the best from childhood to adulthood? Now even marriage is beyond the reach of others. Just because I am a concubine, even if my father spoils me again, such a marriage has never considered me. ”

She finally spoke her mind.

Wangshu wasn't annoyed, but just commented nonchalantly, "That's not because you're not satisfied." ”

In Wangshu's opinion, his father is good enough for Xiao Sirou. From childhood to adulthood, she has things that Xiao Sirou has not fallen on. Xiao Sirou is very good at competing for favor, even if it is valuable, as long as she cries and makes trouble, she can get it. As for marriage, the decision is not only in the hands of his father, but he really doesn't want Xiao Sirou to marry into the palace.

"Contentment? Why should I be content? Xiao Sirou laughed, looking at the luxurious scenery in the room, her eyes were sour, "I didn't decide to be born, why can't I get what I want through my own efforts?" ”

Her ambitions are big, but sometimes she has to match her abilities.

Wangshu sighed, "Of course you can, but sometimes it's not just hard work, you also need opportunities." ”

Xiao Sirou was surprised that Wangshu didn't deny her.

She asked in a daze, "What opportunity?" ”

"I can give you this chance to get what you've always dreamed of, but do you dare to ask for it?"

"You...... What do you mean? Xiao Sirou's surprised words couldn't be said completely.

Wang Shu took off the phoenix crown on his head and gently placed it on the table, "I'll let you wear this dress and marry Gu Huaiyu for me." ”

"Are you crazy? This is the sin of deception! Xiao Sirou exclaimed.

Wangshu smiled unhurriedly: "This is indeed a crime of deception, so I will say that it depends on whether you want it or not." ”

The Dongzhu on the phoenix crown was particularly eye-catching, and Xiao Sirou hesitated.

Wangshu looked at her appearance, and his heart was already very clear.

"'If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight', such a valuable thing is naturally not easy to obtain, and what you can get without risking it may not be able to please you. Everything has its own law, although bullying the king is a capital crime, but you can also bet that your father will protect you for the sake of the Xiao family. ”

Seeing Xiao Sirou's expression shaken, Wang Shu continued: "While you are gambling, why am I not gambling? ”

Xiao Sirou looked at her suspiciously, "I'll just bet, what are you betting?" ”

"I bet on my own will, on my freedom, on my own will." Although Wangshu was smiling, the smile was a little dim.

At this time, Wangshu is not as sharp as in front of people, and it seems that he is still a little weak. Xiao Sirou suddenly felt that she was not so annoying, after all, they wanted differently.

"Is it worth it?"

Wangshu quickly hid that weakness, "What's not worth it, it's just a trade-off." ”

Xiao Sirou suddenly understood, "I understand, you don't like Cousin Huaiyu." ”

Life is like this, but the things she abandons are the existence she can't ask for.

Wangshu really didn't deny it, "I don't get along with him deeply, how can I like it?" People pay attention to the word 'fate'. Do you like him? ”

When Xiao Sirou saw her confess, she no longer hid it, "Although I don't like him, I like his identity, and I will like my future identity." ”

Wangshu knew she had already made a decision. She handed the phoenix crown to Xiao Sirou.

Xiao Sirou was silent for a long time, and suddenly said, "No matter what, thank you." ”

This is the first time Xiao Sirou has sincerely thanked her, and Wangshu is a little stunned.

It was probably the last time she heard it. Their choice is in two directions, and they can't be sisters in this life.

Wangshu walked out of the door and looked at the red glow on the horizon, the morning breeze was always so refreshing, making people feel a sense of freedom.

She suddenly remembered what he said to Zhang Yixian when she passed by her father's study that day.

"How could I not be thinking about Rou'er's marriage? It's just that her temperament is really not suitable for entering the palace, and the person in the palace who can laugh to the end, which one is not the most strategic, Shu'er is stable and intelligent, and it is the most suitable. ”

Xiao Sirou always thought that her father was unfair to her, in fact, her father was reluctant to let her enter the palace because he liked her too much, he knew her character and knew what kind of ending she would face after entering the palace, out of the protection of his daughter, he chose Wangshu, who was more suitable for entering the palace.

Wangshu glanced back at his room. The figure behind the window was already sitting peacefully on the edge of the bed, and Xiao Sirou should have finished her makeup and covered her head.

Although she took advantage of Xiao Sirou, she also gave her the opportunity to choose. So no matter what the final result is, she also contributed to it herself.

On the twenty-sixth day of the winter month, it will definitely be a good weather, no wind and no rain, and the rising sun is just right.
