118. Is it too late to get married?
When the decree was read out in the temple, the early dynasty was dispersed.
As soon as the emperor left, the ministers in the palace immediately rushed to Ye Han and scrambled to say "congratulations".
Ye Han protected Ruan Qingzhi behind him, and his expression was still indifferent: "Of course, there is really no need to say goodbye." Now that the case of King Qingfu is unclear, this king and his second brother still have to help take care of the aftermath, so they will not accompany you. ”
The ministers hurriedly hugged him out, and they didn't care about being hungry, and they rushed to say that they would go to King Qing's Mansion to mourn first, and they happened to be on the same road with the two highnesses.
Ye Han was so troubled by these people that he was helpless, so he had to be reluctant to perfunctory along the way, and as soon as he got out of the palace, he hurriedly pulled Ruan Qingzhi into the carriage, eager to get rid of those people.
Ruan Qingzhi looked at him with such a stoic look.
Ye Han didn't laugh. His face was ugly, and as soon as he got into the car, he pressed Ruan Qingzhi into the corner and began to pick off her clothes.
"Hey, what are you doing!" Ruan Qingzhi was about to cry in fright, and struggled desperately: "Don't bring such a ...... Although I have ruined your reputation, isn't it all for you! You're not going to ...... Don't you be in such a hurry to sit on that charge, right? ”
Ye Han was taken aback by her posture, and stopped helplessly, and then his face turned red again: "What are you yelling about!" There's someone out there! ”
Outside, the coachman snapped his horsewhip and showed that he was concentrating on his work and heard nothing.
Ruan Qingzhi shrank into the corner with both hands to protect his clothes, and looked at Ye Han with wide eyes and horror, as if he was guarding against thieves.
Ye Han's face was hot, and he was angry: "What are you doing here again?" Pretend like you haven't stripped me of my clothes! ”
"That's at home!" Ruan Qingzhi was confident, "Can it be the same now?" It's in a carriage! In case of...... How uncomfortable I am! Besides, King Qing's Mansion is not far from Miyagi, and you will have to get off in a while! How ashamed I am if people see it! ”
Before she could finish speaking, Ye Han was already stunned.
She, really, was too well thought out!
It's really embarrassing for her, she has thought about it so clearly for such a while, and she can't even be comfortable......
No, what kind of little girl is this!
Ye Han sat down in another corner, his hands on his forehead.
I'm scared, I'm afraid, is it too late to get out of the marriage now?
He was probably really frightened, and accidentally said what was in his heart.
As soon as the words came out, he felt that it was going to be bad, and he hurriedly raised his head to think of remedy, but saw the little girl opposite blink and show him a meaningful smile: "Divorce?" That's not easy! The decree has been issued, and you suddenly want to withdraw from the marriage, you have to find a reason, right? If you tell the truth that you 'can't resist,' then I'm afraid that no girl will ever marry you! ”
It's getting excessive!
Ye Han's face turned even redder. He really has no experience in dealing with this kind of little girl, and he doesn't have time to think about countermeasures at this time, so he can only get up and rush forward immediately for the sake of the man's face, and continue to do what he didn't finish before.
Ruan Qingzhi squeaked again.
This time, Ye Han ignored her, pressed her shoulders with one hand and grabbed her shirt with the other, and pulled it cleanly three times and two times, and half of her snow-white shoulders were exposed.
Ruan Qingzhi stopped screaming, raised his head and blinked a pair of watery peach blossom eyes, looking like a fool: "Hey, when you say do it, you really only do it?" ”
Ye Han felt like he was going crazy. I can't breathe, I just want to rub this little girl's piece to death on the spot.
So he still lost a lot in this game, so he had to hurriedly cover up her clothes, gritting his teeth to keep his voice cold: "What about your injury?" ”
"Huh?!" Ruan Qingzhi was stunned for a moment, and then sat up: "You ask about my injury?" So you ripped off my clothes for my wounds? The night is cold...... Do you have some hidden ailments? My chest is almost exposed, and what you think is actually my injury?! ”
Ye Han took two steps back and moved away from her, his face was as red as a spring couplet, and then he didn't know what to think, and suddenly burst out laughing.
Ruan Qingzhi was so angry that he grabbed a pillow next to him and smashed it into his face, dragging and crying: "How can you be such a bastard - I don't have the face to live!" ”
Outside, the coachman trembled with fright, and the whip in his hand snapped on the horse's ear. The horse galloped like madness, and the carriage was about to fly with a jolt.
Ye Han took advantage of the situation and fell forward, accurately suppressed the little girl with her teeth and claws, gritted her teeth and whispered: "It's almost okay!" If you continue to make trouble, I'm afraid you won't be able to get out of the car for a while! ”
Ruan Qingzhi grabbed the placket of his clothes and sneered: "Who are you bluffing?" Give it a try! - You're hard-mouthed! ”
If it weren't for the coachman shouting "We're almost there" outside at the right time, Ye Han would have really wanted to tear this little girl on the spot.
Hearing that it was almost here, Ruan Qingzhi finally let go of Ye Han's clothes, pursed the corners of his mouth and began to focus on tying his clothes.
Ye Han breathed a sigh of relief, let go of her hesitantly, and asked again, "Injury, what's going on?" ”
Ruan Qingzhi didn't raise his head, and his mouth was pouting.
Ye Han suddenly didn't want to ask anything.
There is no need to ask, asking is that the immortals are omnipotent.
It doesn't matter if she's true or not, even if she admits that she is a demon and a demon at this time, he can only admit it!
Ye Han sat down next to him, dragged Ruan Qingzhi over and pressed him into his arms, and ordered in a deep voice: "Rest for a while!" ”
Ruan Qingzhi was indeed tired, so he honestly and unceremoniously leaned into his arms, and complained in a low voice: "Actually, it's not good, it's just that I can't see it, it still hurts." ”
Ye Han immediately frowned when he heard this, and he couldn't tell whether he was distressed or annoyed: "I know that it hurts, you are still making trouble!" ”
Ruan Qingzhi flattened his mouth and did not answer his words.
Ye Han waited for a while, and then sighed again: "I didn't mean to bully you, I was really worried." ”
"Oh!" Ruan Qingzhi stretched out his voice, "Are you really worried about my injury?" But obviously there is a wound on the arm, and you should be able to see it when you roll up your sleeves! As soon as you got in the car, you didn't ask a word or look at my arm, you just rushed over and picked up my clothes! I really only looked at the injury and didn't look at anything else, and said that I wasn't bullying me! ”
Ye Han was stunned by her at first, and was ashamed in her heart, but suddenly heard the last sentence, and immediately felt as if something was strange.
So her conclusion is indeed that he bullied her, but the process of coming to this conclusion seems to be different from what he thought.
Ye Han felt that his brain was not enough, and he couldn't help but start thinking seriously: I'm afraid that I will have to hire a military advisor to fight in the future, and I can't be so blindly confident anymore!
Ruan Qingzhi didn't know where Ye Han's mind had jumped. Anyway, she herself had already remembered something else, and she just didn't bother each other.
When the carriage stopped, Ruan Qingzhi grabbed Ye Han's sleeve and asked, "In the future, will I not be able to call you 'Ye Han' anymore?" 'Ling Han' can't be called, and being called 'Akan' is suspected of imitating Chu Weiyang...... What will I call you in the future? You can't be called 'Your Highness' by everyone before and after, right? ”
Yehan wants to say that it's actually good to be called "Akan". But thinking of his little daughter-in-law's logic, he was a little worried.
Perhaps in her eyes, "Akan" has become Chu Weiyang's exclusive name for him. In this way, if he dares to say "'Akan' is very good", she will probably be able to immediately understand "Chu Weiyang is very good".
That's still it.
Poor His Royal Highness King Li thought seriously for a long time, and finally said: "It's good to call it 'Night Cold', I like this name." ...... at the beginning"
Ruan Qingzhi immediately interrupted him: "Originally, this name was given to you by Xianyun!" I'll give you the name 'Ergou'!" ”
Ye Han's face immediately darkened: "You still call me 'Akan', it's a big deal that I won't allow Chu Weiyang to call him like that again in the future!" ”
Ruan Qingzhi laughed: "If you were called 'Ergou' at the beginning, I will definitely change my mind immediately!" It's a pity, the name 'Night Cold' is really nice, no worse than your original name! You'd better be prepared to be called that by me for the rest of your life! ”
"Good!" Ye Han immediately agreed.
Ruan Qingzhi was stunned: "Why did you agree?" ”
"For a lifetime, it's good." Ye Han smiled and dragged her up and pushed the car door open.
Ruan Qingzhi instinctively pounced on him and hung on his shoulder, but when he looked up, he saw that there were many officials standing outside, and the second prince and the seventh prince were also there.
That's embarrassing.
Ruan Qingzhi hurriedly let go of his hand and subconsciously lowered his head to tidy up his clothes.
Then I caught a glimpse of the eyes of the crowd and it was even stranger.
She had to hurriedly put down her hand again, raised her head casually with a dry cough, and muttered, "Are they all winged and flew over?" ”
The Seventh Prince squinted his eyes and stared at her for a while, then said with a straight face: "We all came here on horseback!" It's like you, just come in a carriage, and refuse to get off! Fragile! ”
Ruan Qingzhi frowned and looked back at Ye Han: "Who is that kid?" Your brother? How old is it? ”
The Seventh Prince was so angry that his eyes widened: "Who do you call 'kid'?" I'm months older than you! ”
Ruan Qingzhi sneered: "It's useless if you're a few years older than me!" When I saw me, I didn't want to call the third sister-in-law obediently! ”
Ye Han coughed and reminded her not to be too ostentatious, but she couldn't hold back her smile, and everyone next to her was stunned.
The Seventh Prince's bulging little face was flushed with anger: "Who wants to call you the third sister-in-law?" I want to be a sister-in-law before I pass the door, do you want to be ashamed? is also the daughter of the Prime Minister's house, you really can't even compare to your sister's hair! ”
Ruan Qingzhi was already about to walk over, but when he heard this, he turned back and stared straight at him: "What are you talking about, which sister is mine?" ”
"County Lord," the second prince frowned, "Xiao Yu is young and ignorant, don't take it to heart." ”
"Young and ignorant?" Ruan Qingzhi raised his eyebrows, "It's a few months older than me!" Besides, I didn't quarrel with him, I was just curious, just ask! ”
What else did the second prince want to say, but the seventh prince had already thrown him away and rushed to Ruan Qingzhi: "Can a concubine be called a sister too?" I'm talking about the sister you came up with, Miss Ruan Er! ”
"Oh," Ruan Qingzhi narrowed her eyes and smiled, "My second sister?" It's true that she wasn't born to a concubine. ”
She was born in the outer room.
The Seventh Prince obviously also remembered the recent rumors, his face turned even redder in an instant, and he glared at Ruan Qingzhi as if he was glaring at an enemy: "Miss Ruan Er's background is not as good as yours, but she is cautious in her words and deeds and strictly abides by the discipline of the girl, she is a real lady!" What like you......"
"Enough!" Ye Han walked over and protected Ruan Qingzhi behind him, "My people, it's not your turn to teach you a lesson!" ”
"Third brother!" The Seventh Prince was taken aback, and then became very angry: "Third brother, she is not worthy of you!" ”
Seeing that something was wrong, the second prince hurriedly glanced at Ye Han, and then vigorously lifted the arm of the seventh prince and dragged him away.
Ruan Qingzhi asked coldly in the back, "Where is my sister at the moment?" ”
The Seventh Prince blurted out: "...... in Jinxi Building"
After that, he hurriedly stopped, turned around angrily and glared at Ruan Qingzhi: "Why are you asking this?" I said she was better than you, so were you going to bully her and get angry? ”
Ruan Qingzhi turned back to Ye Han and complained, "I really don't like to talk to little kids. In comparison, it's still an old man like you who is more likable! ”
The second prince, the seventh prince, and the ninth prince, who are not very sensible, were all a little stunned when they heard this.
Ye Han couldn't cry or laugh for a while, gritted his teeth and asked, "So I should feel honored?" ”
Ruan Qingzhi snorted, dragged him to walk a few steps away from others, and asked in a low voice, "Can you send someone to keep an eye on Ruan Biyun?" I always felt a little uneasy. ”
When Ye Han heard this, he immediately ordered the soldiers to do it, and then asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" You've seen her again lately? ”
Ruan Qingzhi looked around at no one, then lowered his voice and said the important things of last night, and concluded: "If she was really scared by me, she shouldn't have gone out today." But when I heard what your Xiaoqi meant, it was clear that she had just met her, and it was obvious that I had heard a lot of bad things about me from her. I think there's something wrong with that. ”
"Not really." Ye Han agreed with her judgment, "It seems that she doesn't plan to settle down for a day." In this way, let Lin An keep an eye on her in the future, and follow her as long as she goes out. Don't relax over there in Jinghuayuan, the girl named Xiaoyu should be wooed, don't let it go. ”
Ruan Qingzhi responded one by one, and saw from a distance that the two princes had already entered the gate of King Qing's Mansion, and they hurriedly pulled Ye Han out and followed the condolence procession.
Today's Qingwang Mansion can be regarded as making up for all the excitement that has not been seen in the previous ten years. Almost all of the civil and military officials of the imperial family came, and the street in front of the door was bustling with people comparable to a temple fair.
The three children in the mansion are all young and can't afford such a big scene, so they have to ask the second prince and the fifth prince to help with the cooking, and another elder clan member is here to preside over the overall situation.
Not long after Ye Han entered the door, he was asked by the people below to ask about things, and Ruan Qingzhi had no choice but to walk into the mourning hall by himself.
She didn't know the etiquette of condolences in this dynasty, so she had to learn from the person next to her to salute so-so, took the incense handed by the little eunuch, and inserted it into the incense burner upright.
I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at it, but Ruan Qingzhi doesn't care about it.
She has nothing to do.
Looking at the two tablets side by side in the mourning hall, Ruan Qingzhi said calmly: "Now I am almost qualified to call you big brother and sister-in-law." Although I don't know you and can't learn what you do, I am still willing to come and give you a stick of incense, hoping that you will find peace in heaven. ”
Say goodbye and bow again, and then you can leave. The three children of Qingwangfu returned the salute on both sides with a blank expression, like three poor little puppets.
"That's really...... Iniquity. Ruan Qingzhi sighed after going out.
A woman next to her asked casually: "Your Highness has not done any evil in your life, how can you say that you have created evil?" ”
Ruan Qingzhi said lightly: "Parents don't care about their lives, they must do what they do when their brains are hot, and they don't care what the consequences of what they do. ”
The woman thought for a moment and sighed, "That's really the case. Alas, pity the child! ”
Ruan Qingzhi didn't talk to anyone anymore, and went straight outside to find Ye Han, but saw Luan Zhongcheng pacing around a small road, as if waiting for someone.
It's kind of not good.
Ruan Qingzhi instinctively wanted to escape, but Luan Zhongcheng had already seen her and immediately walked over.
At this time, it was too late to escape, Ruan Qingzhi had to step forward and salute, pinching his throat and calling "grandpa" sweetly.
"You come with me!" Luan Zhongcheng turned around and left.
Ruan Qingzhi had to follow. I wanted to find someone to send a message to Yehan, but I saw that the soldier who was with her had long since disappeared, and I didn't know whether to consciously move the rescue soldiers for her or escape.
There was no way, Ruan Qingzhi had to honestly follow Luan Zhongcheng to a place to avoid people, bowing his head and waiting to listen to the training.
Luan Zhongcheng didn't seem to know how to speak, just looked at her and sighed, and didn't say anything for a long time.
Ruan Qingzhi waited anxiously, so he simply stomped his feet and said, "I know that my grandfather wants to scold me." It's okay for you to scold, I'm thick-skinned and won't look for a short-sighted! ”
Luan Zhongcheng seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and immediately asked, "You committed suicide in the court before, did you scare people?" ”
Ruan Qingzhi nodded: "Of course, I am so thick-skinned, how can I seek death because I feel ashamed!" ”
"You!" Luan Zhongcheng's face was a little angry, and then he sighed: "Play less about this in the future." Your grandfather is too old to be frightened. ”
Ruan Qingzhi was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and answered "yes" in a low voice.
Luan Zhongcheng looked at her, as if he wanted to reprimand, hesitated for a while and swallowed again, softened his voice and complained: "There is no other way for King Li to restore his identity, why are you in such a hurry to put your reputation into it!" In case ......"
"There's no what," Ruan Qingzhi interrupted, "and there's no other way. We have a hundred ways to present this matter in front of the emperor, and he has a hundred ways to delay and refuse! You didn't look at him in the court today, not only did he refuse to give him a marriage, he clearly didn't give up, and he was thinking about arranging another marriage for me! ”
Luan Zhongcheng swept the snow on the stone bench with his sleeve and sat down: "Even now, Your Majesty may not really give up that idea." So you have to remind Your Highness to be careful, dark arrows are difficult to prevent. ”
Ruan Qingzhi's face sank.
She knew that her fears were justified. She has already married and can't marry again, but what if she loses her husband? It's not a glorious thing for a widow to remarry, but for the sake of the good fortune of the phoenix, what can't the royal family do?
"Grandpa," Ruan Qingzhi asked with a frown, "how could the emperor dislike the night cold so much?" He couldn't have been born to the emperor, right? Could it be that his mother ......?"
Luan Zhongcheng had a black face: "What do you think about at a young age!" Of course, King Li is the son of His Majesty! Otherwise, do you think that your grandfather and I are going to follow a thief with a foreign surname to make Nanqi opposed? ”
Ruan Qingzhi hurriedly shook his head and apologized again and again.
Luan Zhongcheng glared at her angrily several times, and then barely calmed down his anger and sighed: "People's hearts are complicated, even I can't understand them, let alone outsiders." This matter has nothing to do with you, don't ask! ”
Ruan Qingzhi had to bow his head and agree, not daring to say a word.
Luan Zhongcheng looked at her for a long time, and sighed again: "You have an idea in your heart, and I can't say anything." I just hope that you can be a little more sober than your mother, don't be stupid to give everything, and finally be eaten clean! ”
Ruan Qingzhi smiled and agreed.
Luan Zhongcheng didn't know if she listened, so he had to change the topic and said: "In the court today, King Li seems to have reached some kind of tacit understanding with Ruan Wenzhong, what's going on?" ”
Ruan Qingzhi hurriedly said when he heard this: "I was about to tell you." Grandpa, the case of the Yushitai Cha Ruan family, I'm afraid it will be hard for you to press it first. ”
"Why?" Luan Zhongcheng's face was ugly.
Ruan Qingzhi thought for a while and said, "On the surface, it was because Ye Han and my father reached an agreement, and my father helped us hide a secret, and Ye Han tried to suppress the case of Yu Shitai to protect the Ruan family." ”
"Secret?" Luan Zhongcheng looked at her, and then looked at the direction of the mourning hall, thoughtfully.
Ruan Qingzhi didn't explain much, and continued: "But the real reason is that my father and the emperor are afraid of each other. We haven't found out exactly what it is, but it must be not easy to imagine that the secret that can make my father sit in the phase for many years without doing anything. Now we suspect that my mother's death is also related to that secret, so we can't check the affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion. ”
Luan Zhongcheng stared for a while and shook his head for a while, his face was gloomy, obviously taking this matter very seriously.
Ruan Qingzhi looked at him and said seriously: "None of us knows how many people were implicated in that incident. So before making sure it's safe, please put down the case of Yushitai for the time being, and don't dig into it. ”
Luan Zhongcheng didn't answer for a long time.
Ruan Qingzhi was a little worried: "Grandpa, I know that you are my mother's ......"
"It's not." Luan Zhongcheng interrupted her, "I just remembered some old things. I didn't think about it before, but it's kind of funny to say that. ”
Ruan Qingzhi didn't dare to ask, and looked up and waited to hear his explanation.
Luan Zhongcheng twisted his beard and groaned for a long time, and said in a deep voice: "So, I'm afraid it's not just the death of Yu Niang...... From the time Ruan Wenzhong tried his best to beg to marry Yu Niang, things were very wrong. ”
"He bothered to marry my mother?" Ruan Qingzhi frowned, "I obviously don't like it, but I want to fight and ask for marriage?" In this way, will that old incident also involve the Luan family? ”
Luan Zhongcheng didn't answer, still tugging at his beard vigorously.
Ruan Qingzhi suddenly said again: "Or maybe the Luan family was not involved at that time, it was my father who married my mother, so the Luan family was involved in a daze?" ”
