Chapter 107: From now on, you are my man
A sentence that places the mother's face is said by a person of noble status like the queen, which is tantamount to pointing at Huo Chen's nose and scolding him for being unfilial.
If you are filial, you should listen to your parents' orders and marry a girl from a good family to live happily, how can you publicly lose the face of your mother for a divorced cousin.
After the queen finished speaking, she didn't give Huo Chen time to argue, raised her eyes to look at Yun Xiangrong, and said lightly: "And Xiangrui too, since you have left Zhou Mu and left, you should learn a lesson and think more about yourself, the status of the king of Zhennan is noble, and it is the real princess to marry him, so it can be regarded as a good match, and you should keep your distance from him." ”
The implication is that you have never been separated, and your identity is not worthy of his wife, how can you have the face to be so entangled.
If the queen only said Huo Chen alone, he might be patient out of the overall situation, but the queen actually fired at Yun Xiangrong, and a trace of coldness suddenly flashed in Huo Chen's eyes.
Huo Chen looked up at the position of the first queen, and his face was cold.
"The queen's status is noble, no matter what she says, Huo, as a courtier, should listen to it. It's just that if there is an invasion of foreign bandits, it will make Huo Mou throw his head and spill his blood and die on the battlefield, and the minister will not have half a word of dissent. But" Huo Chen said this, he paused, and his expression became even colder.
Said: "No matter what happened in the past, Xiangrui is now the beloved person of the minister, even no one can bully her and insult her." The minister only has her in his heart, and the woman next to him will not take a second look no matter how noble she is. Besides, this is a family affair of the minister. The queen mother should not interfere too much. The minister heard that the county lord has been at odds with Lord Zhou recently, and Niangniang should be more worried about the county lord, right! ”
This was so angry that the queen almost vomited blood, and her face turned black at that time.
And Zhou Mu didn't expect that he would be dragged in, and his face changed greatly.
And Yun Xiangrong was extremely surprised in his heart.
As if she knew Huo Chen for the first time, her eyes looked at him deeply, and the smile on her lips became brighter and brighter, this was the first time for her, it was enough for her to be so protected.
Li Mingyue, who was on the side, saw that the queen's face was dark, and she was afraid that the queen would be angry, so she was terrified. scolded directly at Huo Chen: "It is your blessing for the queen mother to worry about your marriage, you dare to speak to the mother like this, you really don't distinguish between the old and the young." ”
said that he saluted the queen again, and said: "Huo Chen was reckless, collided with Niangniang, and asked Niangniang not to blame." ”
Huo Chen's face was still pale, and he said indifferently: "The queen's kindness is always in her heart. It's just that the minister has what he wants, and he also understands what he wants, if the mother thinks that her son is disobedient to the queen's good intentions, she can ask the mother to be the master of the second brother, and it is better than wasting her mind on me. ”
Li Mingyue's face turned pale with anger, and she pointed at Huo Chen tremblingly. Almost speechless.
Huo Chen said again: "Or, my mother really can't get used to my actions, so she can ask the emperor for an order to withdraw the title of the king of Zhennan, demote me to a commoner, and let the second brother inherit the title." ”
Li Mingyue's heart suddenly moved when she heard this, and she couldn't agree immediately, but she couldn't.
Now countless eyes are looking at her, if she really does this, I am afraid that tomorrow the entire capital will rumor that she, the old princess, is intolerable, and she will be treated indiscriminately if she is not her own biological child.
Li Mingyue knew that this should not be said.
She was still thinking that the emperor's displeased voice came from above.
"Alright. Although the title of King Zhennan is hereditary. But if you want to let you retreat, you can't make the decision in private, if that's the case, wouldn't it be child's play? Besides, I've heard that Huo Chen, your second brother often lingers in the land of fireworks and willow lanes, and his colleagues in the household department are also dissatisfied with him, so ridiculous at a young age and don't know how to restrain himself, how will he take on a big responsibility in the future? The matter of abdication must not be mentioned again. In the end, the emperor's words were as cold as frost, and the majesty contained made people dare not refute.
"Obey." Huo Chen clenched his fists and responded lightly.
Li Mingyue on the side followed suit, bowing her head to hide the emotion in her eyes.
How his own son knows best, although he understands that Huo Ye has many unsatisfactory points, but the mother is always towards her own child, and when the emperor says this in front of everyone, Li Mingyue only feels that her face is hot and painful.
Of course, the main thing is shame.
It's just that no matter how embarrassed and resentful she is, these emotions can't be revealed to the emperor.
can only be buried deep in his heart, and this hatred is completely transferred to Huo Chen's body.
At this moment, the emperor spoke again.
"Men are born in the world, and they should serve the country and the country and the people, so these children's affairs will be suppressed for the time being, and we will talk about it later." Although the emperor's words seem fair, he is actually biased in favor of Huo Chen.
Otherwise, if Huo Chen was almost disobedient to the queen, he would have been reprimanded and even punished a long time ago.
It can only be said that the Jiang Guogong Mansion has been too arrogant recently, and the power is so great that the emperor is suspicious, and it has taken root in the emperor's heart, which makes him jealous, and he urgently needs to support a person in the military department, obtain military power, and be able to compete with the Jiang Guogong Mansion, and Huo Chen is the best candidate.
Li Mingyue, who was the next one, could only say yes, but didn't dare to say more.
And the queen, since the emperor opened her mouth, she naturally didn't want to say anything.
It's just that this time, not only did she fail to prevent Huo Chen from gaining military power, but also lost her face, and the queen was really angry in her heart.
Jiang Guogong, who was sitting at the bottom, didn't seem to have any reaction, but his heart was already surging and churning, he was already preventing Huo Chen and Yun Xiangrong from coming together, so he would let the queen come forward to marry Huo Chen on such a big occasion, but he didn't expect Huo Chen to be so tough that he openly disobeyed, and the emperor actually followed him
For a while, in the main hall, everyone's thoughts were different.
The banquet continued for a while, and the emperor saw that everyone was not in high spirits, so he announced the dismissal.
After the banquet was dispersed, everyone left the table one after another, Yun Xiangrong said goodbye to Xiao Qi, and was about to return to his car, but heard a call.
"Rongrong."
Yun wants to look back. I saw Huo Chen striding towards him.
He was dressed in a dark brocade robe, and he was calm and capable when he wore it on his body, he was such a person, he was just above the main hall, but he disobeyed the queen for her.
Yun Xiangrong's heart was full of warmth, smiled faintly, and bowed.
"I've seen the prince." As soon as Yun Xiangrong's words fell, before the salute was finished, Huo Chen grabbed his arm.
Raising his eyes, his face was still clear, and his face was calm and indifferent, revealing a touch of alienation, if it was someone else. I'm afraid I don't dare to approach, I don't dare to say more.
But Yun Xiangrong looked at him like this, but his heart was soft, and the smile in his eyes went straight to the bottom of his heart.
"I'll send you back." Huo Chen grabbed her hand, slid down, and clasped her fingers.
"Wouldn't it be good?" Yun Xiangrong didn't break free of his hand, just looked up with a smile and asked.
"What's wrong?" Huo Chen asked lightly, clenched her hand, walked forward hand in hand, and said lightly: "Now that the matter between you and me has been made public, the emperor has not agreed, but you are no longer allowed to avoid it." No matter what happens in the future, you and I will have to face it together, Rongrong, you have no way out. ”
His voice was calm and gentle, and when he said this, he didn't even glance at Yun Xiangrong, but he just held Yun Xiangrong's hand but didn't relax at all, revealing his seriousness and firmness!
He thinks about Yun and won't let go again!
Yun Xiangrong looked at his side face, smiled lightly, didn't say anything, just let him clench his hand.
From the moment he said in the temple that he was pleased with her, from the time he said in the temple that no one should be allowed to bully her and insult her, and from the time he said that no woman was as noble as her, she knew that she had no way out.
No matter what the future holds, at this moment, she has no reason to avoid it.
Yun Xiangrong was led by Huo Chen towards the carriage with a graceful smile, the smile on his face was gentle and demure, and Huo Chen's face was indifferent, his eyes were deep, the two stood together, the man was handsome, and the woman was beautiful, even from the back, it was also a very good match.
Along the road, some ministers saw the figures of the two, thinking about Huo Chen's performance in the hall just now, and couldn't help but sigh secretly.
If you don't care about Yun Xiangrong being a cousin, this Yun Xiangrong and Huo Chen are indeed very compatible together, but it's a pity
No matter what the ministers next to him thought, Zhou Mu was resentful, looking at the appearance of the two of them, Zhou Mu only felt uncomfortable for a while.
His carriage was not far from the two of them, so he actually came up, bowed to Huo Chen, and said lightly: "King Dayong of Zhennan." Xia Guan admired. ”
Huo Chen raised his head and looked at Zhou Mu lightly, there seemed to be coldness in his eyes, but he didn't speak, but he was full of coercion.
Zhou Mu was shocked by his eyes, but looking at Yun Xiangrong with a faint smile on the side, he felt a nameless fire in his heart.
"I can't see that the prince still has a habit of picking up people's broken shoes, but fortunately, the words above the main hall are so scorching, which really surprises the lower officials. I don't know when the wedding date of the two is set, and the lower officials still want to ask for a cup of wine to drink. Zhou Mu smiled and said sarcastically.
This means that Huo Chen picked up the broken shoes he didn't want, and he wanted to lose Huo Chen's face.
Huo Chen's eyes were full of meaning, but there was a lazy smile on his face. said: "When is our wedding date fixed, Lord Zhou is not concerned, Lord Zhou should think about whether your wife will let you attend my wedding." Good dogs don't get in the way, if it's okay, Lord Zhou will get out of the way. ”
"You" Zhou Mu said angrily, Huo Chen's eyes suddenly cold, and Zhou Musheng swallowed the rest of the words.
The smile on the corner of Yun Xiangrong's lips was seen sarcastically by him, and he shook his hand fiercely and turned to leave.
This episode was seen by others, and many ministers talked about it.
Even if you don't have to hear the content, Yun Xiangrong also knows how ugly it is.
tightened his hand and said in a low voice, "I'm embarrassing you." ”
Although she didn't care, but the eyes and gossip of others. But it's also annoying.
"What's so hard about it! What I Huo Chen wants is you, others talk nonsense, and I don't care what he does. Huo Chen responded lightly, and his right hand, hidden in his sleeve, popped out a hidden weapon and hit Zhou Mu's leg.
Zhou Mu, who was about to get into the car, knelt on the ground with a puff, his mouth slammed on the edge of the carriage, and his mouth was suddenly full of blood, and he howled miserably.
The minister next to him suddenly laughed when he saw it, people will inevitably fall, but in front of the public, it is also strange to fall like Zhou Mu.
Zhou Mu only felt that his face was lost, and he climbed into the car in a panic. In the car, he said embarrassedly: "Hurry up, go quickly." ”
The driver hurriedly drove away.
Yun Xiangrong couldn't help but laugh when he looked at it, and said in a low voice: "What did you do?" ”
Huo Chen didn't say a word, and no matter what others thought, he took Yun Xiangrong and got into his carriage directly, and told the coachman to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
In the carriage, Yun Xiangrong looked at Huo Chen, looking very quiet.
"What are you looking at me like that?" Being looked at intently by Yun Xiangrong like this, Huo Chen didn't mean to be half annoyed, and his expression was light.
He looked at Yun Xiangrong with burning eyes, but Yun Xiangrong was a little embarrassed, and blushed slightly.
"You are just in the palace, and you are not afraid of being punished if you collide with the queen like that?" Yun Xiangrong asked.
"Are you afraid?" Huo Chen asked rhetorically.
Yun Xiangrong was suddenly dumbfounded.
What is there to be afraid of her? It's all people who have died once.
"If the emperor really listened to the queen's words and gave me a marriage, would you allow it?" Huo Chen said.
Yun Xiangrong pursed his lips and did not speak.
This is not something she can decide whether she allows or not, if the emperor really makes an order, what else can she do except obey? The whole world is not the king's land, even if it is fighting, it can't fight the emperor.
"If I marry someone else, will you still be with me?" Huo Chen asked again.
When he said these words, his eyes were fixed on Yun Xiangrong's body, and he didn't mean to move at all, as if he wanted to see all her actions clearly, without blinking, extremely seriously.
Yun Xiangrong was still silent, and even his eyes were restrained.
She won't!
No matter what the reason, as long as Huo Chen marries the woman next to her, she will not wronged herself and Huo Chen.
A Zhou Mu has made her understand how deep-rooted the inferior nature in a man's bones is, but whenever the feelings of two people are mixed with a third person, whether intentionally or unintentionally, it will always become a gap that is more and more difficult to cross, deep between the two, and can no longer be erased.
Huo Chen knows her temperament very well, so he will consider her feelings in everything.
But this time, he forced Yun Xiangrong to ask her to answer.
Yun Xiangrong saw his gaze and said calmly: "No, I don't want to." If you are with others, I will never be with you again. ”
"Remember what you said today." Huo Chen grabbed Yun Xiangrong's hand, looked directly at her, and said in a low voice: "From now on, you will be my person, my alone, and I will have nothing to do with the man next to you." In the future, if Zhou Mu wants to entangle you again, he will call back directly, and I will bear it if something happens. ”
Yun Xiangrong looked at him, pursed his lips and smiled lightly. Nodding slightly.
She was never so direct in her response. If he hadn't pressed it, she wouldn't have liked to say it.
Huo Chen stretched out his hand and pulled her closer to his arms, and said with a smile: "Although the matter between the two of us has been made public now, I am afraid that there will be many twists and turns if we want to be together, should I charge some interest first?" ”
Interest? Yun Xiang was stunned.
When he looked at the evil smile in his eyes, he suddenly understood, and before she could struggle, he had already kissed her lips and tongue first.
Lips and teeth intersected, Yun Xiangrong felt his heart tremble slightly, he could hardly come back to his senses, and could only grasp his clothes weakly. Let him ask for it.
After a long time, his lips parted, Huo Chen looked down at Yun Xiangrong's misty eyes, ruddy lips, and only felt that his heart was on fire, and he couldn't wait to directly correct her on the spot.
In the end, reason prevailed, Huo Chen chuckled and nodded Yun Xiangrong's nose, and said with a smile: "How can you look like an untrained little girl, so jerky." ”
That's what he really thinks.
Although he has never tried the woman next to him, but after several intimate actions, he has also found the trick, but Yun Xiangrong, who has been married, is more jerky than him, as if he has never been intimate with anyone, which is really confusing.
But after thinking about it, I thought it was funny.
After all, she and Zhou Mu have been married for three years, and it is impossible not to taste love.
Yun Xiangrong was shocked when she heard this, but she didn't want to let him know that she was still a complete affair so soon, so she tried to think about the words she had heard about sex before.
Holding back his blush, he said calmly: "If you think I don't understand the amorous feelings in this matter, you can draw a line with me now, Zhou Mu just thinks that I won't please him in sexual affairs, so I came outside and came to such a field today." ”
"Don't compare me to him." Huo Chen said coldly.
Yun Xiangrong looked at him, his lips moved, and he wanted to say something, but Huo Chen hugged her and let out an almost inaudible sigh.
What I regret the most is that I didn't meet you before him, and let you suffer so much in vain. Huo Chen sighed secretly in his heart, he didn't say this to Yun Xiangrong after all.
When he arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion, Huo Chen sent Yun Xiangrong out of the car, watched her go back to the house, and then left.
The next day, Yunfu, Yunxuan study.
Yun Xuan and Huo Chen, one old and one young, looked at each other. Their expressions were calm.
Huo Chen was about to be busy rebuilding the Biannan Army, and yesterday he suddenly announced the matter of He Yun Xiangrong, and today he naturally came to explain to his future father-in-law.
"This matter was rashly made public without consulting with my uncle, it was the little nephew's fault, but you also know the situation at the time, the little nephew does not want to have a woman next to him to get involved between me and Rong Rong, I hope my uncle can understand." Huo Chen opened his mouth and explained very sincerely.
Yun Xuan's expression was calm, and he said lightly: "I didn't want to interfere in the affairs of the two of you, but now that you have taken the initiative to find me, then I will tell you what I think." ”
"Selfishly, I don't want to be with you." Yun Xuan opened his mouth to say this, which made Huo Chen's heart feel slightly cold, but he had no impulse and calmly waited for his next step.
"But since Rong'er chose you, I won't object." Yun Xuan saw that he was holding back his temper, and he was satisfied, and said lightly.
Huo Chen breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
If he can get the support of Yun Xiangrong's father, it will still be very meaningful to him.
Yun Xuan is not only his father's best friend, but also Yun Xiangrong's father, compared to the death of his parents, Yun Xuan is the closest elder of the two of them, although even if Yun Xuan opposes him, he will not let go. But then it will be another trouble.
He didn't want to be embarrassed.
"You are in an extraordinary position, and there is a constant struggle between right and wrong around you, and I only have one request, protect her and don't let her be harmed. If you can't protect her, don't marry her. Yun Xuan said lightly.
Huo Chen's expression was calm when he heard this, "I will do my best." But my uncle should know Rongrong better than I do, she is not an ordinary woman, she does not need me to protect her behind her, she should hide everything from the wind and rain, she should bloom her own light, not hide behind me and be an ordinary woman. I respect her own choice. ”
Huo Chen's words made Yun Xuan slightly stunned, and then smiled bitterly, and then turned into relief.
It seems that Huo Chen understands Rong'er, so it's okay. Yun Xuan thought in his heart, and said lightly: "Since you have said this, I won't say more." There is still a long way to go, so be careful. ”
That's an instruction.
"Yes, my nephew understands, thank you uncle for making it happen." Huo Chen saluted respectfully, his expression solemn.
The two talked for a while, and then Huo Chen got up to say goodbye.
As soon as he left the courtyard gate, he saw Yun Xiangrong Huanting's figure standing not far away. Looking at him and smiling.
Huo Chen walked up to her, "Have you been waiting for a long time?" ”
"Nope." Yun Xiangrong shook his head.
In fact, when she came over, she happened to hear what Huo Chen said to her father, and the emotions in her heart were a little agitated.
After all, Huo Chen said this, which showed that he knew himself well enough.
It also shows that he indulges himself.
He didn't want to stifle his freedom and preferences, and that alone was far more than many men in the world.
Huo Chen didn't ask if she said anything back, and took her hand and walked out.
"I'm going to start working on the rebuilding of the Border Southern Army in two days, so I don't have to go to the border to garrison, but the former base of the Southern Army here is also in the deep mountains near the border, and I'm afraid it will take several months to go." Huo Chen said softly.
Yun Xiangrong knew that the separation was imminent, and he was very calm when he heard the words, but he just grabbed his hand and tightened it slightly, and said: "I understand, you go and take care of your own affairs, I will take good care of myself, and you yourself should be careful." ”
"When I get back, I'll start preparing for the marriage!" Huo Chen looked at Yun Xiangrong and said seriously.
Yun Xiangrong shook his head and said: "This matter is not in a hurry, you have just obtained the military power now, you should focus on major events, as long as you have me in your heart, this marriage is just a formality, I can wait for as long as I want." ”
"But I can't wait." happened to turn a corner, Huo Chen hugged Yun Xiangrong in his arms, "I can't wait to tie you up day and night." ”
Yun Xiangrong's face turned red suddenly, and he stretched out his hand to push him, "In broad daylight, you let go quickly, it will be seen by people for a while, it's not good." ”
The rare shame on Yun Xiangrong's face pleased Huo Chen, and he let out a low laugh, finally letting go of her.
The two whispered as they walked towards the gate.
Neither of them noticed that there was a man standing behind the rockery in the cloister not far away.
Li Mingyue watched with a gloomy face as Yun Xiangrong and Huo Chen left the Yun Mansion, turned around and went back to her own Luoxia Garden.
Since she was punished to kneel in the ancestral hall last time, she has come out again, and it is not as beautiful as before.
The subordinates were respectful to her on the surface, but behind the scenes, they all said that she was inappropriate and seduced men.
And Yun Xuan, who was already cold to her, finally recovered a little bit, but because of this matter, it fell to the freezing point.
She hated Yun Xiangrong so much.
If it weren't for Yun Xiangrong, she wouldn't have become like this.
But Yun Xiangrong is now in and out of pairs with Huo Chen, looking extremely affectionate, how can she accept it!
