The silence in the courtyard was terrible, and so was the room, Chai Xiyun slowly pushed open the door, and his eyes were on Zhao Fuping, who was sitting on the bed with his knees crossed, his thin body was wrapped in plain grosgrain, his hair was untrimmed, and he was scattered behind him in a disorderly manner, his dense eyelashes were on his eyelids, his eyes were stagnant, and he was gloomy, as if Princess Pingning, who was in her heart the day before yesterday and was smiling yesterday, has changed her person today.

Chai Xiyun's heart was twisted, and when she moved to the bed, she met Zhao Fuping's gaze, she was trembling, and after the trembling, it was calm, and the silence was heartbreaking.

"You're here." Zhao Fuping's voice was very low, slightly hoarse, Chai Xiyun's breath was a little unstable, he slowly sat on the edge of the bed, frowned and asked, "What's wrong, what's going on?" ”

Zhao Fuping was silent for a moment, then shook his head, Chai Xiyun couldn't bear to ask, only raised her eyes to look at Zhao Yuanwei, she hurriedly approached and persuaded softly, "Ping'er, don't be afraid of anything, Yun'er and I are here!" We've got you covered! ”

Zhao Fuping raised his calm eyes like water, stared at the cheeks of the two full of worry, and after a while, he moved his gaze and said slowly, "With you, I don't worry, so I said these words, you must also remember, no matter what the official family decides, don't ask him, I will suffer any result, this is my life, you don't need to gamble for me with the official family's favor for you, second, don't delve into this matter, how it happened, who let it happen, it doesn't matter, I don't ask for any justice, because there is no justice in this world, three, It's best if Xu Zhan doesn't ask, if he asks, he doesn't have to explain, and I don't bother to explain, it doesn't matter if you go to Liao, or give sin, you don't have to do anything, it's important to protect yourself. ”

Chai Xiyun held her hand tightly, "You don't have to think about it, we know what to do, and I will never sit idly by." ”

Zhao Fuping shook his head lightly, and said with a sad smile, "Our official family, what a decisive person, you can't change his decision, what can you do to find out the truth, will the official family offend the Liao State and deal with her for a dispensable person like me?" ”

"She? Who are you referring to? Zhao Yuanwei asked rhetorically.

Chai Xiyun turned around, couldn't help but take a long breath, and slowly replied, "It's her, the biggest beneficiary of this matter." ”

Chai Xiyun of course understands that Zhao Fuping is definitely not such an imprudent person, let alone a greedy person, this matter is not drunk at all, but someone has been planning for a long time, the other party is waiting, waiting for a palace feast, waiting for a day when everyone gathers, so as to carry out her dirty plan, Yang Yanzhao once reminded himself that it turned out that they were wrong, and the other party's target was not her Chai Xiyun at all, from the beginning, it was the weak and bullying Zhao Fuping, how could Xiao Shizi be so sick, maybe it was not a coincidence, It's just that someone has transferred the tiger away from the mountain, Chai Xiyun thought about it so far, and became more and more annoyed, and he didn't feel that his eyebrows were frowning.

"The beneficiary, it won't be..."Zhao Yuanwei pondered for a moment, and exclaimed, "Zhao Qingyu! That's right, it's her, she has always been dissatisfied with her father to let her make peace, as soon as this matter comes out, no matter how her father decides, her marriage with Prince Liao can't be completed, so she gambled, she used to think that she was just so willful, and wanted to compete for favor in front of her father, and finally she was able to distinguish between right and wrong, but she was so unbearable now, and she used such dirty means, no, I went to explain it to my father. ”

"Wait." Chai Xiyun and Zhao Fuping almost spoke in unison, Chai Xiyun got up and grabbed Zhao Yuanwei, and persuaded, "There is no evidence and no evidence to prove it, she is afraid that she has pretended to be weak and bullied in front of the imperial uncle, crying and saying that the prince of Liao acted unjustly, and accused Fuping of the hatred of taking away his son-in-law, begging the official family to stop the marriage. ”

"It's hard for us to let her continue to frame us, and we can't stay out of the matter." Zhao Yuanwei stomped her feet anxiously.

Zhao Fuping just admonished, "Stay out of the matter, no matter how good it is, what can you do if you fight for right or wrong?" I can't argue clearly, I and Yelu Longxu, a lonely man and a widow, spend a night alone, drunk and disorderly, people in the world will only believe this, you just listen to me once, stay out of the matter, don't pursue it, the official family will never hurt his father-daughter relationship with Tongchang for me. ”

"Then I'll try if he is willing to hurt my father-daughter relationship." Zhao Yuanwei hated and hated, but Chai Xiyun was busy sorting out his thoughts, and suddenly raised his eyes and said, "The top priority, don't care about the truth, is to prevent the officials from making the easiest decision to settle this matter." ”

"And kiss!" Zhao Yuanwei exclaimed, Chai Xiyun nodded, and before he answered, he heard a low and powerful voice from outside the door, "I'm going to ask the official family for marriage." ”

The door was pushed open, flashing a long figure, coming with wind and dust, the handsome face was full of urgency, and the blazing eyes revealed sincerity, such a gentle man, how could there be anyone else except Xu Zhan.

"I'll marry you, I'll go and tell the official family that I will marry you." Xu Zhan hurriedly rushed in, his tone urgent and firm.

Chai Xiyun reacted, glanced at Zhao Fuping, who was obviously stunned by the side of the bed, and said, "Young Master Xu, you are so good to persuade her, let's go to see the official's house." After speaking, he hurriedly walked out of the house with Zhao Yuanwei.

Xu Zhan slowly approached Zhao Fuping, she must have been frightened, her eyes were full of tears, her face was pale, Xu Zhan just walked to the bed, and heard Zhao Fuping shouting, "Don't come here." ”

Xu Zhan paused, and Zhao Fuping continued, "Who are you, who are you, who are you, why should you care about my business." ”

"I am your future husband, the one with whom you will spend your life." Xu Zhan replied firmly.

"Joke" Zhao Fuping raised his eyes and glared, gritted his teeth and said, "I just went to the collapse of Prince Liao last night, and he is my husband." ”

Xu Zhan saw her hateful appearance, and knew that she was deliberately pushing herself, and said before approaching, "I know it's not like this, why do you bother to say such a practice, you believe me, I can save you, the official family at least still cares about my father, I will go and tell the official family, you and I have already had a relationship, let him give marriage, otherwise, I will take you to escape from this Bianjing City and be a couple of idle clouds and wild cranes..."

Before the words fell, he heard Zhao Fuping let out a few "hehe" sneers, Xu Zhan couldn't help but be stunned, only to see Zhao Fuping raise his head, revealing a sarcastic look, and sarcastically said, "Xu Zhan, who do you think you are!" It is true that you are the son of Duke Xu, but in the court you are just a small waiter to be selected in the Ministry of Rites, how can you be compared with the prince of Liao under that person, I Zhao Fuping was born arrogant, I have been in the Song Dynasty for many years, just to have a beautiful second half of life, the husband and wife of idle clouds and wild cranes, do you think I am rare? I want to be the princess of Liao, or even the queen, I can't look down on the lintel of your Xu family. ”

Zhao Fuping's eyebrows were frowned, and the hatred between his words was quite strong, Xu Zhan felt a sense of strangeness, how could the cautious and arrogant Princess Pingning in the past say such a powerful and ruthless word, Xu Zhan was stunned for a moment, and then it was incomparably distressed, he approached her side, and said softly, "Silly girl, why do you still say such cruel things to me, your person, I don't know yet?" ”

"You know?" Zhao Fuping continued to push him, sneering, "Can you imagine me doing such a thing for my own wealth? Do you want to see it? Want to take a good look? ”

Zhao Fuping's face was full of provocation, staring at Xu Zhan's incredible expression, then turned over and got out of bed, forcefully ripped open the quilt, pointed to the bed, and said, "Look, take a good look." ”

Xu Zhan looked away in a daze, and what caught his eyes was the crumpled bed and the blood stains that had turned dark red, and his heart sank.

Zhao Fuping grabbed his arm, the clothes on his body were not neatly dressed, and he slipped to the side of his shoulder unconsciously during the struggle, and his hair fell on his collarbone, and his eyes with spring water unconsciously brought out a bit of flattery, and said softly, "If Xu Gongzi is really happy with the palace, the palace is not unable to satisfy the desire of the son, and it is a big deal to marry a daughter and two people, how about it?" ”

Zhao Fuping leaned in Xu Zhan's ear, his tone was soft and charming, his arms climbed up to Xu Zhan's neck, making a dusty shape, which made people panic, Xu Zhan took two breaths, and pushed her to the size in a panic, Zhao Fuping staggered, and smiled for a moment, look! He still cared, he still pushed himself away, Zhao Fuping secretly mocked himself, straightened his clothes, let out a sigh, leaned over slightly, laughed twice and said, "Xu Zhan, you are a righteous gentleman, but unfortunately I, Zhao Fuping, am not a lady, what I want, you can't give it." ”

Zhao Fuping let out a long sigh again, stepped forward to open the door, and ordered with a cold face, "Go out." ”

Xu Zhan didn't know how to advance or retreat for a while, he knew that Zhao Fuping had been wronged, but he didn't know how to comfort her, and he didn't know how to face the relationship between the two, there was no formal beginning, and there was no formal ending, but it seemed that Zhao Fuping wanted to take this as the end.

Xu Zhan somehow got out of the room, he didn't even have the courage to look back at the poor woman, she was kind, she tried to keep the situation under control, and tried to protect the people she cared about one by one, so she would rather accept this predetermined result.

Zhao Fuping knows very well that she loves Xu Zhan, not inferior to Xu Zhan who loves her, if things don't get out of control like this, maybe she will respond to what Xu Zhan said, gamble with him, wander the world, and go crazy, but no, she doesn't have a clean body, she is no longer worthy of the bright and glamorous young man, since he can't change the ending, why bother thinking about him all his life, it's better to break it early, save it and then be entangled, what's more, she clearly saw his hesitation, and the shock when he understood the inside story, he cared, There is not a single man who does not care.

Where did Xu Zhan's hesitation come from, from the bright red of that virgin, from this unclear night, did he care? Xu Zhan repeatedly asked himself, if he didn't care, why didn't he dare to face it, why he didn't think about how to rescue and comfort her at that moment, but the glory of the family and the innocence of the family.

For the rest of his life, Xu Zhan regretted it! Otherwise, when we meet again after 20 years, why will we cry and can't help ourselves.
