Chapter 281: A Three-Year Covenant

As soon as Luo Zhaoyun sat down, he felt two scorching eyes staring at him, among which the eyes from Princess Ruyi were even more instantaneous, direct, containing strong care, longing and tenderness. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After all, he is not a hard-hearted man, so he can't stand looking up, and Princess Ruyi's eyes instantly intersect, at that moment, he saw a pair of eyes that are radiant, tactful and tender, which seem to contain mist, and a determination that I will not regret even though I have died.

Luo Zhaoyun's heart trembled, he seemed to understand that no matter how he dodged, this peach blossom tribulation seemed to be difficult to dodge.

First, because the other party's love is deep-rooted, he will die easily if he refuses to, and he seems to have a good impression of Princess Ruyi.

Lang is affectionate, concubine is intentional, this kind of marriage, unless there is a huge external factor to block, otherwise, it will often be combined naturally.

"General Luo, this palace wants to congratulate you and make new achievements, in the past three years, you have continued to make good news, promote my great Sui national style, give Your Majesty a long face, and the Chinese military minister of the DPRK is very appreciative of your performance in the side stop."

"Don't dare to be, these are all things that a minister should do. The minister has won the trust of His Majesty, so young, he was transferred to the border to command the army, if he did not make some achievements, he was really ashamed of the emperor's grace. ”

Luo Zhaoyun organized the language, and the answers were fluent, but he was also a little resistant to this kind of slapping words in his heart, but there was no way, who made you a courtier!

Empress Xiao was graceful and luxurious, and her tone of voice was calm, but it was very pleasant: "It is really rare for you to have such insight." Looking at the Da Sui boys, at your age, you have achieved such a meritorious achievement, and there are very few young people who are famous, and they should be cherished! ”

"Yes, the ministers will remember the grace of His Majesty's support, and they will be more dedicated in the future to serve the country!" Luo Zhaoyun replied.

Empress Xiao nodded slightly, still very satisfied with his performance of not being arrogant or impatient.

But Princess Ruyi was not very satisfied, three years of separation, so I couldn't get together, and when I met, it was these court and government officials, too outside.

Therefore, Princess Ruyi said coquettishly on the side: "Queen Mother, let's not talk about government affairs." ”

Empress Xiao smiled dumbly, doted on Princess Ruyi, nodded and said: "Okay, let your father and emperor talk about it, let's get together today, just talk about some family things, General Luo, you don't have to be restrained, I call you over today, I mainly want to see you, I don't want to see you, I don't want to hear about it, I want to hear about your life in Biansai in the past few years." ”

Luo Zhaoyun listened to Queen Xiao's gentle words, like a spring breeze, that sense of maturity, the attraction to him is much more than that of a girl.

If in terms of age, Luo Zhaoyun plus Ning Zeyu's age in the previous life is almost the same as Empress Xiao, Yang Guang and others, so among peers, the charm of appreciation is also close.

Princess Ruyi is waiting to be released, and for the time being, compared to Queen Xiao's amorous style, the charm is much worse.

"In the past few years, I have lived a very fulfilling life, although the border is hard, and I often lead the troops to fight, but I also have a lot of ...... to grind" Luo Zhaoyun explained the life in the border area, how to raise horses, fight Tu Guhun, train soldiers, local customs, plateau climate, etc., and pick some wonderful and interesting things to say, so that the mother and daughter of the long-boring palace can listen to it with relish.

As soon as the chatterbox opened, after a while, Princess Ruyi put down her reserve, took the initiative to interject and ask, laughing and laughing, completely losing the dignified and stable princess demeanor of the past.

This is Yang Caiyu's true character, and it is also the youthful vitality of a girl.

Empress Xiao saw it really on the side, she knew in her heart that Ruyi, this child, would only be so frank and unrestrained in front of Luo Zhaoyun, without the cumbersome etiquette of the palace, if she could promote the marriage between the two, she could also rest assured, and she didn't have to worry about His Majesty's sudden whim and giving Ruyi to others.

After more than half an hour, Empress Xiao took advantage of the pause in the two of them to interject and ask: "General Luo, you are nineteen years old this year, right?" ”

Luo Zhaoyun replied: "Yes, next year's weak crown." ”

In ancient times, men also had to grow long hair, and they paid attention to "the hair and skin of the body, and the parents who received it," which could not be easily harmed. When a man is 20 years old, he has to perform a crown ceremony, which is to coil his hair into a bun, which is called "knotting", and then put on a hat to show that he is an adult, but his body is still not strong and relatively young, so he is called "weak".

Empress Xiao said tactfully: "According to my Great Sui Kaihuang Law, a man with a weak crown of twenty can divide his family independently, marry a wife and have children, be included in a separate household registration, and no longer depend on his parents' household registration. ”

Luo Zhaoyun sighed in his heart, knowing that he couldn't escape this topic, he smiled awkwardly at the moment, nodded lightly and said: "Age is enough, but I have been going out, marching and fighting, and I haven't thought much about marriage, so I don't know how to say it in a hurry." ”

Princess Ruyi bowed her head slightly, her cheeks were rosy, her jade hands twisted the corners of her skirt intentionally or unintentionally, and her eyes glanced at Luo Zhaoyun from time to time, cautiously, but her heart was budding.

She is already sixteen years old, not that she is in a hurry to get married, but that if she doesn't hurry up, she is afraid that Luo Zhaoyun will marry first, and without the status of a wife, it is impossible for the royal family to allow her to marry and be a concubine.

The second is that he is also worried that other ministers, for the men of the family, will ask the royal family for marriage, and if the father marries her to someone else, it will be sad.

Empress Xiao smiled generously and said: "That's right, General Luo has great ambitions when he is young, he carried General Luo Yi on his back at the age of fourteen, enlisted in the army privately, or started from the front-line soldiers, and did not rely on the family to protect him, this courage and courage are admirable." However, when you are old, if you get married earlier, I am afraid that the ministers of the DPRK and China will come to the door one after another and step through the threshold of your Luo family. ”

"Ah, there is such a thing?" Luo Zhaoyun was surprised, thinking that Empress Xiao was joking.

Empress Xiao said: "It's not that this palace is joking, after you left Beijing, there were many officials who went to find your grandfather Luo Rong to marry, especially this year, after learning that you repeatedly broke the Tuguhun, it attracted the attention of many wealthy forces, and they have wooed your grandfather to join the Luo family. ”

Luo Zhaoyun suddenly understood that he was like a rich and handsome man in later generations, rich for three generations, young and golden, and scary with high official titles, which naturally made many families hot and eager to marry and consolidate the influence and evergreen status of the family.

Empress Xiao asked tentatively: "I heard Ruyi say that before you set out on the expedition, you made a three-year appointment with Ruyi, and you are waiting for the day you return to Beijing, which is when you talk about marriage with her, can there be such a thing?" ”

When Princess Ruyi heard this, her cheeks were as red as a big apple, delicate, embarrassed and shy, but also excited and expectant, I don't know how Luo Zhaoyun would answer, do you still remember the appointment three years ago? (To be continued.) )
