Chapter 125: The Willows and Flowers

It is certainly a pleasure to have beautiful women break into the house to find themselves.

Xiao Fan's face quickly put on a kind smile, like a spring breeze.

"Your name is Moyu?"

"Yes." The beauty's big eyes kept blinking, and her expression looked very anxious.

"Do you know me?"

"The maid is the maid by the side of the county lord of Jiangdu......"

Xiao Fan suddenly felt a sense of urgency, could it be that the county lord could not force the marriage to succeed, and he came with another person...... Continue to force marriage?

"The county lord sent you?" Xiao Fan couldn't laugh a little.

Mo Yu nodded vigorously: "The will has been passed in the palace, ten days later, on the seventh day of the next month, the county lord will marry Geng Xuan, the son of the Marquis of Changxing, and the county lord will send a maid to see Lord Xiao......"

Xiao Fan's heart was shocked, and his mind shook the soft and tranquil pretty face of the county lord of Jiangdu, and his affectionate eyes looked at him fixedly, full of resentment and expectation.

"The county lord...... Do you have something to bring to me? ”

Mo Yu raised his eyes, looked at Xiao Fan deeply, and said, "The county lord only asked the maid to tell Lord Xiao the news, and the county lord also said...... He also said......"

"What else?"

Mo Yuying lowered his head and said quietly: "The county lord said, you should understand, Lord Xiao will understand, if Lord Xiao still pretends not to understand, then there is no need to say anything, it is useless to force it." ”

Xiao Fan suddenly fell silent.

Yes, Xiao Fan is not a fool, how could he not understand what the county lord meant?

When a woman is so good, she doesn't have to think about anything, she throws it to a man, and the man does it, he can only say that he is a competent man, if a man pretends to be deaf and dumb, then he is simply a bastard, not as good as a pig and a dog.

But the question is...... Who did Xiao Fan recruit and provoke whom? Inexplicably, he took on this responsibility, and he couldn't allow himself to refuse, if he refused, he was a bastard, and he couldn't deny it.

And the essence of the matter is...... He's the one who was insulted!

Xiao Fan looked at Moyu fixedly, his star eyes blinked twice, and his eyes suddenly turned red, who said that men don't shed tears? It's just that he hasn't reached the grievance...... "Lord Xiao, are you very sad that the county lord marries someone else?" So...... Crying? Mo Yu looked curiously at Xiao Fan, whose eyes were slightly red, this girl was very simple at first glance, she looked at things very one-sidedly, and she only thought about the good things.

Xiao Fan wiped his eyes, sniffled vigorously, and said, "I did cry because I was sad, but I didn't ...... for the county lord."

…… but for himself.

From ancient times to the present, it is rare to see such a bumpy person as an official. If you tell others about his experience of entering the court to the present, how many tears of sympathy will he earn.

"Lord Xiao, the county lord's words, the servant brought it, my lord...... Do you have something to say to the maid to take back? Mo Yu blinked wide-eyed and stared at Xiao Fan expectantly.

Xiao Fan's expression remained unchanged, but he was struggling in his heart. He understood what Moyu meant, and it was asking him about his decision.

The meaning of the county lord of Jiangdu has been clearly expressed, she hopes that Xiao Fan will marry her, she does not want to marry someone she doesn't like, a seemingly weak and quiet woman, when facing the choice of life, she can show her heart to him so boldly, it is certain that this is the first time in her life that she has made such a major and outrageous move.

Should I come forward? Marry her? How can it be? Even if Xiao Thrush doesn't mind, doesn't Zhu Yuanzhang mind? Would he allow a courtier to ruin the marriage he had personally set for his granddaughter? If he recklessly agreed to the county lord of Jiangdu, what would happen to him? Lao Zhu's subordinates have accumulated countless lives, why not have one more Xiao Fan?

Turning a blind eye yourself? But the beautiful eyes of the county lord of Jiangdu who were complaining and sad always dangled in front of him, which made him uneasy.

Xiao Fan's forehead was bruised, and a thin layer of sweat had appeared on his handsome cheeks.

The beauty intends to hold it for life, what a pleasing thing, the good story of the ancient genius and beauty, the legend of the famous man and the beautiful woman can be admired by future generations, but behind this glamorous story, there is a hidden danger of killing.

If this woman is a woman that Xiao Fan really loves, Xiao Fan can do anything for her, he will not allow his woman to marry someone else, and neither will Zhu Yuanzhang's holy decree! I'm desperate to mess this matter up.

But the crux of the matter now is...... The county lord of Jiangdu is not the woman he loves!

The two met because of the chaos in front of the Wuying Palace, and then there was basically no other intersection, neither talked about life nor ideals, Xiao Fan basically had no other impression except that she felt that she was a beautiful and moving beauty.

Now for a beautiful woman who only has a few faces, and is not even a friend, he wants Xiao Fan to throw away his family name to challenge Zhu Yuanzhang's imperial authority?

Xiao Fan is not a fool, he can't do this.

He has too many fetters on him, his commitment to Zhu Yunwen, his responsibility to Xiao Thrush, and even his obligation to Taixu and Laodao...... If Xiao Fan died, what would they do? In order to live up to the county lord's affection, he lived up to the reliance of so many people on him, which is something that only immature men do.

Raising his head and meeting Mo Yu's expectant gaze, Xiao Fan suddenly made a decision in his heart.

"Please go back and tell the county lord what she said...... Xiao didn't understand too much, sorry. ”

Xiao Fan finally hardened his heart and rejected the county lord's implicit request. A man with family responsibilities can't do things regardless of the consequences, walking in the court, every step is a murderous machine, and he can't tolerate his own nonsense and impulsiveness.

Mo Yu's expectant eyes suddenly became dim, and he said unwillingly: "Lord Xiao, you really don't understand what the county lord means?" Do you want to say it again? Listen carefully......"

"No need, I don't understand how many times I say it." Xiao Fan said ruthlessly again.

Mo Yu stared at him with big eyes and said, "My lord really doesn't understand? ”

Xiao Fan sighed: "I'm so stupid, I really don't understand ......"

Mo Yu was silent for a long time, and finally said softly: "The maid knows, so go back and tell the county lord......"

Moyu was disappointed and left gloomily.

Taixu saw the end from the beginning, and after Mo Yu left, Taixu squinted at Xiao Fan with a very disdainful expression.

"The girls have all talked about this, you are still pretending to be deaf and dumb, you really make the poor Dao despised, don't go out in the future and say that you are my apprentice, I can't afford to lose that person, ruthless and unrighteous guy!"

Xiao Fan sighed and said: "If I have affection and righteousness for her, it is ruthless and unrighteous to you and the thrush, the Yasheng thousands of years ago couldn't choose between fish and bear's paws, I was just a mortal, and I couldn't choose." ”

"Poor Dao can't figure it out, what's wrong with you saving her once? The county lord has a deep love for you, and he doesn't want to marry another man, a big girl dares to pursue her own happiness, and you are a big man and cowering, not even a girl! ”

"Master, you are a monk, you don't know the depth of the court, you don't know the danger, when today's surname must be clear to you, if I am rash and impulsive, I am afraid that not only will it affect you and the thrush, but also the end of the county lord is extremely bad, if this matter is full of storms in the city, how will the county lord raise his head in the husband's family in the future?"

Taixu couldn't help but speak, and snorted: "...... Poor Dao only knows that your fate is extremely expensive, and you will ask for a few noble wives, this is the will of heaven, the so-called will of heaven cannot be violated, and acting against the sky will definitely ......"

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Fan pushed him with a heartfelt heart, and said with a forced smile: "Old liar, don't forget to fool me at any time!" ”

Then Xiao Fan sighed to himself and went back to the bedroom.

He stroked his beard with hatred, his eyes were so angry that he burst into flames, gritted his teeth and muttered: "Little bastard, I don't believe in Daoye, you deserve a catastrophe in your life......"

Shoin Palace, the dormitory of the lord of Gangdu.

Mo Yu lifted her skirt slightly and hurriedly entered the side hall.

The soft couch of the side hall is surrounded by red Luo curtain, the powder incense lingers, and the bronze beast head incense burner is burning a furnace of sandalwood.

The county lord of Jiangdu paced back and forth on the soft couch, his beautiful face was red and white, and his restless panicked appearance made people feel pity.

"County Lord, His Royal Highness the County Lord......" Mo Yu hurriedly called after entering the side hall.

"Yikes! Moyu, you're back! The county lord of Jiangdu stepped forward, staring at her with a pair of anxious beautiful eyes, and said eagerly: "You see ...... Is he? What did he say? Say it! ”

Mo Yu shook his head with a gloomy face: "County Lord, the maid has the trust of the County Lord......"

Jiangdu County Lord Lianzu stomped lightly and said, "You didn't see him?" ”

Mo Yu said: "I saw it, Lord Xiao, hum!" The idiot said he didn't understand what the county lord meant......"

When the county lord of Jiangdu heard this, his pretty face suddenly turned pale, his eyes looked at Mo Yu blankly, his feet were weak, and he sat on the soft couch weakly.

He ...... After all, he still refused to save me......" As soon as her beautiful eyes closed, the crystal tears the size of beans slid down her beautiful and sad face.

Is it wrong to pursue your own happiness?

Xiao Fan, I dare to take a step forward as a weak woman, what about you? Why don't you dare?

The next day, Zhu Yunwen came to Xiao Mansion in a hurry.

The grandson came, and the necessary etiquette still had to be done, so the middle door of the Xiao Mansion was opened, Xiao Fan led Taixu and the people to greet the people at the gate respectfully, seeing Zhu Yunwen walking down the Luan car, Xiao Fan hurriedly stepped forward, and before he had time to give a salute, he was grabbed by Zhu Yunwen's hand, and then hurriedly dragged Xiao Fan to the inner hall, and said to the people of the Xiao Mansion like a chicken and a dog as he walked: "Okay, okay, what should you do, don't do all the useless things......"

Xiao Fan was dragged by Zhu Yunwen and staggered, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Why is Your Highness so anxious today?" ”

Zhu Yunwen didn't answer, he hurried all the way with an anxious expression, and when he arrived at the inner hall, Xiao Fan waved away his subordinates, and there were only two of them left in the hall, and there was a Taixu who had nothing to do and was curious.

Zhu Yunwen hurriedly said: "The emperor's grandfather decreed that my imperial sister will marry Geng Xuan on the seventh day of the first lunar month next month, do you know about this?" ”

Xiao Fan scratched his head: "Your imperial sister is married, why did you come to tell me one by two?" I'm not Geng Xuan's father......"

Zhu Yunjun's face was dark, and he stomped his feet angrily: "But...... But the royal sister ...... Hum! You just pretend to be confused! I don't believe you don't understand the affection of the imperial sister! ”

Xiao Fan looked at Zhu Yunwen, who was flushed, and said slowly: "I'm not a fool, of course I understand the county lord's affection, but...... Your Highness, you know, I'm a good man, and I already have a thrush ......"

Zhu Yun said: "What is a good man? ”

Xiao Fan explained seriously: "A good man just sleeps with only one girl repeatedly, and one sleep is a lifetime ......"

"This ...... What bullshit is this! "Zhu Yunwen was so angry that he almost scolded his mother, it was about the lifelong happiness of the imperial sister, this hateful bastard was still playing with his mouth here, it was really annoying!

Xiao Fan sighed and said: "Your Highness, Sister Ling has affection for me, this is true, why don't you ask me if I also have affection for Sister Ling?" ”

Zhu Yunwen said without thinking: "Nonsense! Your descendants have all been captured by my imperial sister, how can you have no affection for her? ”

Xiao Fan wiped his sweat: "This ...... What kind of bullshit is this? According to what you think, aren't the strong criminals in the world dying beautifully? ”

Zhu Yunwen was speechless, and then he flicked his sleeves fiercely, and said angrily: "...... Anyway, you can watch and handle the matter of the imperial sister, she has loved me since she was a child, can you bear to see her hate her for life? ”

After speaking, Zhu Yunwen left the Xiao Mansion angrily.

Xiao Fan looked at his back, sighed and muttered, "...... There is no one in the old Zhu family who is reasonable, she has loved you since she was a child, I can't let her hate her for life? What kind of logic is this? ”

Seven days have passed, and it is only two days before the county lord of Jiangdu gets married.

The mansion of Geng Bingwen, the Marquis of Changxing, has begun to put up lights, and the mansion has a new look, just waiting for the arrival of the big man who married the county lord on the seventh day of the fourth month.

Due to Zhu Yuanzhang's advanced age, the preparation of the county lord's wedding was all handled by Zhu Yunwen.

In the side hall of the East Palace, Zhu Yunwen got up and politely sent away Zhang Zhen, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites who came to discuss the etiquette matters of the county lord's wedding, and watched Zhang Zhen's figure gradually disappear, and the boulder in Zhu Yunwen's heart became heavier and heavier.

It's only been two days since the royal sister got married, Xiao Fan, can you still sit still? Could it be that you really don't have the slightest affection for the imperial sister?

The day before the county lord's wedding, there was an endless stream of guests in the Changxing Marquis' mansion, Geng Bingwen led his son Geng Xuan to stand in front of the mansion to welcome the guests, and the father and son were smiling with spring on their faces.

The palace maids of the palace have begun to try on wedding dresses for the lord of Jiangdu in Zhaoren Palace.

The county lord of Jiangdu was at the mercy of others like a puppet without a mind and soul, and a pair of empty and godless beautiful eyes stared blankly at his soulless self in the bronze mirror.

The slender hand in the sleeve held a golden hairpin tightly, the tip of the hairpin cut through her slender palm, and a string of red and eye-catching blood quietly splashed on the gorgeous and elegant wedding dress.

Ying'er, you're right, Xiao Fan...... He's really not my lover...... That's it, the old fate goes with the spring, I fought for my fate once, tried, failed, enough is enough...... The inner hall of the Xiao Mansion.

Looking at Xiao Fan, who looked anxious, pacing back and forth in the inner hall, he couldn't help gloating: "Stupid, right?" Call you hypocritical! Now it's a good yellow flower girl to marry someone else as a daughter-in-law......"

Xiao Thrush's small delicate body turned out from the back of the hall, and Xiao Fan, who was full of stubble, pulled in distress, and said softly: "Xianggong, you should save her." ”

Xiao Fan smiled bitterly, if it weren't for you, I would have made a move a long time ago, how do you know the danger hidden behind this matter? If the matter is revealed, it will be a catastrophe of raiding the family and destroying the clan!

Xiao Thrush raised his eyes and looked at Xiao Fan, and said: "Xianggong doesn't have to worry about us, you just have to think about it, when you are fifty or sixty years old, lying in bed and reminiscing about this life, will you regret not saving a woman who likes you in the first place?" Will you regret letting her drink and hate for the rest of her life? ”

Xiao Fan froze, and his handsome face gradually appeared with a look of enlightenment.

Yes, I was afraid of wolves and tigers, am I not as good as a woman? Why bother so much? A man is born in the world, when he is happy and revenge, galloping across the country, so cringe, what is the meaning of living?

As soon as he made up his mind, Butler Zhang outside the door came to report, and Moyu, the personal maid of the county lord of Jiangdu, asked to see him again.

Mo Yu didn't say a word to Xiao Fan this time, but just handed Xiao Fan a piece of paper with tear stains.

There is only a simple poem on the paper: "As soon as Houmen entered the deep sea, Xiao Lang was a passer-by from then on." ”

This is a farewell poem!

Xiao Fan held the note, sighed long, and was silent for a long time.

Taixu came over to take a look, and couldn't help but smile and said: "This county lord is really talented, isn't she going to enter the Hou Gate?" Xiao Lang...... Hehe, isn't it a passerby? ”

Xiao Fan crumpled the paper into a ball, and then said to Mo Yu: "Tell your county lord that I can let her not marry Geng Xuan for the time being." ”

Hearing this, Mo Yu suddenly raised her head, and her disappointed and gloomy expression suddenly turned into disbelief, and her big eyes flashed with surprise.

"Really...... It's true? ”

"Really." Xiao Fan nodded affirmatively.

…………………… Mo Yu left happily, Xiao Fan was silent for a while, and suddenly said loudly: "Someone!" Hurry up and go to the Yamen of Jinyiwei Town, and invite Cao Qianhu to come and see! ”

Taixu and Thrush also had joyful smiles on their faces, and Taixu slapped Xiao Fan on the shoulder and said with a smile: "I'll just say that you kid must be like a man, you should take responsibility, and you will never shirk!" Not bad, haha! ”

Xiao Fan smiled bitterly: "This may be the most uncalm thing I have done in my life, this is a game of my life......

Taixu desperately cheered him on: "A man should have a man's domineering and sharp, no matter what he does, once he makes up his mind, he will do it neatly and steadily!" It's just a big deal, and twenty years later, he will be a good man! ”

Xiao Fan was so impressed that he threw himself to the ground: "Master is worthy of being a monk, he is really extraordinary, why didn't the apprentice see that you were such a fearless and fearless warrior before?" ”

Taixu hurriedly explained: "Don't get me wrong, when I said that it is a big deal, I mean you, the poor road will not die." ”

Xiao Fan was unhappy: "If this thing is messed up, why won't you die?" ”

Taixu smiled proudly: "If it doesn't work out, you will be killed, and the poor girl will run away from ......."

Saying that, he was too empty and very ostentatious and squeezed his eyes at Xiao Fan: "...... The poor road will work lightly, and the fool is waiting to be stabbed. ”
