Chapter 178: I Didn't Dare
It's just that in mid-autumn, a thin snow has fallen in Northern Qin.
Before I went to bed last night, the snow was still falling tightly, and in the morning, I opened the window to see that the snow on the ground had turned into muddy water. If you go out at such a time, no matter how careful you are, mud spots will always splash on your skirt and shoes, which is really annoying.
Mei Li didn't feel sorry for these dresses, shoes and socks, but she couldn't tolerate the slightest flaw in her beauty, so at such times, she always chose to stay in her palace.
However......
Lying in front of the window at this moment, Mei Li sighed abruptly, is there anything more uncomfortable than not being able to go out?
When she was bored, she remembered someone, and after careful calculation, they hadn't seen each other for five days......
After that meeting in the secret room, they were reconciled. But this person's frame is not ordinarily big, if you didn't deliberately look for him, he would never take the initiative to appear in front of you.
She is also a dignified princess, how could she ever be so inferior to a person? I was really angry in my heart, so I deliberately found an excuse to trouble him, and after several times, she got a trick.
As soon as the word "imperial brother" is mentioned, this person will immediately become gentle, and the speed of changing his face is absolutely breathtaking. Sometimes she even wonders if there are two people living in this person's body. When you are eager, you can melt the glacier, and when you are indifferent, you can freeze the marrow.
Later, she figured it out, although he is now doing things for the queen mother, but the queen mother is a woman after all, and there will always be a time when she is old, and when it comes to returning the government to the emperor's brother, there is still a place for him?
The so-called cunning rabbit three holes, smart people always have to find more ways back for themselves, but if everyone knows it, then what's the point?
She doesn't understand the things in the court very well, but this handle is very easy to use, which can make people obey her and call people around at will.
This kind of feeling, good is addictive!
The corners of Mei Li's lips unconsciously rose upward, and she turned to the palace maid and ordered, "Prepare paper and pen!" β
After writing a few words in a dashing manner, she ordered the letter to be delivered, followed by a patient wait.
When people have expectations in their hearts, no matter how boring the time is, it will fly by. After just two meals, the sun had already sunk into the horizon.
She went back to the dormitory early, and after dismissing the palace people, she leaned on the soft collapse and read a small book casually. Less than five pages later, a tall figure blocked her candlelight.
Mei Li didn't realize it and didn't speak, but she secretly slandered herself in her heart.
This is a man, he can do it against all odds when he wants to do something, what is heavily guarded, and it is inconvenient to see each other; Busy with affairs, no time, all excuses for not taking her to heart!
As if returning to his own home, the man took off his cloak and sat down beside Mei Li, sighing softly and complaining, "You, you, are becoming more and more willful, in such a season, where can I catch a colorful butterfly for you?" β
"After a lot of hard work, I only found this one, but it still suits your heart?"
Mei Li glanced at the butterfly hairpin handed over, and then said, "Not satisfied!" I want live, colorful butterflies! β
Knowing that it was unreasonable, the man was not annoyed, and promised softly, "Okay, I'll send someone to the south to catch one back immediately, how many more days can you give me grace?" You can only play with it, if you don't like to throw it away. β
Mei Li raised her eyes and glanced at the man, got up lazily and said, "I'll believe you again, put this on for me first." β
The man smiled lightly and helped Mei Li sit in front of the makeup mirror, he took the comb to tie the loose bun back up, and then found a suitable place to put the hairpin on.
Mei Li looked at the two people in the mirror, like a newlywed Yan'er couple, she was a little in a trance for a moment, is the so-called mutual love and companionship for a lifetime?
I couldn't help but ask a question.
"Have you ever thought of marrying me?"
The hand that was tidying up his hair paused, and then the man chuckled, "The princess is talking stupidly, the minister doesn't dare to have such delusions, the princess has her own good marriage, and she will definitely have a happy life." β
The man in the mirror lowered his head, and Miri couldn't see what was hidden in those eyes, as if this person was always so blurry.
And the answer was decent and proper, but she just felt panicked, especially when she spoke in a tone that was very similar to her mother, why did they all think that the six princes of Nan Yaoguo must be her good match?
"Humph!" The little hand slapped heavily on the dressing table, and Mei Li had frost on her face, "You all say that the six princes are my good match, and I will be worry-free, stable and happy for a lifetime when I marry, but no one told me that these six princes were born with a fat man, and they are dressed in rough linen clothes all day long in the fields, and they are the most unpromising of the princes, and the one with the least hope of winning the heir!" β
"It's such a person, you can also blow him into the sky, isn't the purpose to trick me into marrying An'an?! I don't know what kind of interest is exchanged, and I am the bargaining chip you give up! β
The man's head was raised suddenly, and all kinds of emotions in the black pupils were turbulent, but after a moment of silence, he returned to calm. He turned Mei Li around, and he slowly squatted down, still lowering his head, holding a pair of small hands and persuading softly: "Princess...... I promise with my life that it's not what you think......"
"The mother concubine of the six princes was born in a famous family, gentle and virtuous, although she did not have the Sacred Heart, but she was not neglected. His maternal grandfather's family is full of talents, and he knows how to cultivate obscurity, and he is the most solid and stable backer of the six princes. "Girl classmates network
"And the six princes themselves, dedicated to agriculture and water conservancy, determined to let the people of the country no longer be disturbed by floods, and everyone can have no worries about food and clothing, will such a person with great love be bad for his wife?"
"Generally speaking, the six princes have both virtue, talent, and potential, and they withdrew from the battle for the heir early, no matter how the situation changes in the court in the future, he can always protect you for a lifetime."
"As for physiognomy ......"
The man smiled self-deprecatingly, "I'm good-looking, but ...... Am I just a good person? β
Mei Li looked at the man squatting in front of her, pious and gentle, the moment she raised her eyes, her heart trembled suddenly, this is indeed not a good person, but it is the only one that makes her uneasy.
In a flash of light, she thought of a question: "Is it my mother's idea or your idea to marry me to Nanyao?" β
The man licked his dry lips, lowered his eyes and replied, "Whose idea is not important, the princess is happy." β
The words were vague, but Mei Li understood, and in an instant, thousands of grievances and pains came to her heart. Even a cat and a dog should have some feelings, but this person can pack you away as if nothing happened, and it is called for your happiness......
"Princess......" The man held Meili's hand tighter, trying to soothe the slightly trembling body, "The princess is beautiful and intelligent, she will definitely be loved by her husband, definitely, she will definitely ......"
"Smack!" With a bang, Mei Li couldn't control it anymore and slapped the man heavily, and asked with tears in her eyes, "Have you ever loved me?" β
The man seemed to be a little stunned by the beating, and after a long time, he lowered his head and replied softly: "Don't dare to ......"
"Don't dare, or haven't?!"
Mei Li clenched her fists tightly and stared at the man. This time, the man raised his head and smiled apologetically at Mei Li, "I don't dare and I haven't ......."
"Bang Bang!" A few more slaps were thrown on the man's face, ruthless and urgent.
With a red and swollen face, the man smiled easily, he kowtowed on the ground, and said clearly word by word: "Thank you for the reward!" β
Miri's brain was dizzy, she bit her lip, kicked the man away from her, and roared hysterically, "Get out!! β
"Get out of !! right away"
"Surnamed Gu, I will never see you again!!"
The man got up calmly, patted the dust on his body casually, and then bowed deeply to Miri.
"Well, the princess must be true to her word......"
******
Miri didn't know how she spent the night. When I woke up in the morning, my eyes were so red and swollen that I applied a few eggs in a row to relieve it slightly.
The palace people were very busy in an orderly manner, as if no one heard the roar coming from the dormitory last night, let alone saw the embarrassed Lord Gu coming out of the princess's dormitory.
Freshened up and dressed properly, Mei Li went to his mother to say goodbye, and when he came back, his face was pale, and his eye circles were swollen again.
For the first time in her life, she disobeyed her mother.
And in the afternoon, in addition to bringing her wedding date, the father-in-law who announced the decree also had two teams of fully armed elite soldiers, who surrounded the palace so tightly that not even a fly could fly in.
She's under house arrest!
How ruthless can a person's heart be? She didn't believe it was the whim of the queen mother, she believed that it was someone's impatience.
Can't wait to send her away, can't wait to marry her to someone else, can't wait to clear up with her! Since then, Yangguan Road and the single-plank bridge have been happy in their own lives.
It's no wonder that his official is getting bigger and bigger, how can he allow himself to exist with such a fatal stain, it's okay to act on the spot, isn't it too stupid to talk about true feelings? What's more, there are more girls than her naΓ―ve and sensible, and IKEA is a man's choice.
For a moment, she was a little disheartened.
Such a forbidden relationship was a mistake from the beginning, and she has been very sober step by step. Even now, whenever that person shows the slightest sadness and reluctance, she will feel some comfort.
But it wasn't until today that she completely understood that that person was truly sober!
Mei Li looked at the gloomy sky outside, and suddenly looked forward to a heavy snowfall, the bigger the better, before this month, paved her vast road to marriage.
