Luo Shi listened patiently to his chatter, and waited until Wanxian came to give her a cloak before she came back to her senses from his story: "You should go back early, it's been a day...... It's long overdue to get tired. ”

"Actually, ...... today"

He stared at her, raised his lips, and smiled: "It's the minister's birthday." ”

"Your birthday?"

Luo Shi didn't remember his birthday, it was really that he didn't have a fixed date in his previous life, the most ridiculous one, he actually passed two birthdays a month, his birthday was not just a birthday, but by this name, so that those who have needs, there is a step to step up and ask him to do something, he is usually busy, it is normal not to remember the day, some people around him remember and do not want to remind him, they all want him to have more than a few lives, so as to get benefits from it, at first he was also disgusted, and then slowly it didn't matter, mutual benefit and reciprocity, Everybody's getting rich.

If he said it so solemnly today, it should be today, right?

Luo Fu sighed: "Mid-Autumn Festival, then why didn't you say it earlier?" ”

Li Bu tugged at the corners of his mouth, looking sad: "What if you say it?" ”

He turned his back to her in frustration: "Growing so big, the birthday of the minister can be counted on his fingers, and this day is nothing special for the minister." ”

Luo Shi is damn a little distressed.

"It's a memorial anyway." She touched her body, and there was nothing good, and finally untied the red rope with a bell on her wrist and handed it to him: "This is what the mother concubine asked for to the palace, saying that it is to keep the peace, you said in a hurry, and there is nothing that can be handed over to you now, since you said it in front of the palace, it is good that the palace has to say something, you can accept it first." ”

In the past, it was more difficult to get something from her than to go to Qingtian, and she was careful about a handkerchief, and she wanted to take it back after bandaging his wound last time, but she didn't expect to be able to give it so happily in the name of her birthday.

The red string bell was only the thickness of her wrist, Li Bu accepted it, but she couldn't wear it, and Luo Fu was also a little embarrassed: "It's just to keep safe, what does it look like for a big man to wear this thing on his hand?" Just take it however you want. ”

"His Royal Highness's thoughts, the ministers dare not spoil it, and they have to wear it on their bodies in a place that can be seen every day to live up to Their Highness."

Luo Fu waved his hand: "It's not a valuable thing, it was given by the abbot of Cheng'an Temple, you don't have to be like this." ”

Li Bu put it away with great pity, thanked him, and was satisfied, and when he left, his steps were brisk, and Fang Cai's gloomy mood was swept away.

Su Wan pouted and muttered: "You just gave him what the concubine gave you so casually, the concubine Niangniang knows, I'm afraid it's time to be sad." ”

"It's not anything of value."

"Yes, it's worthless." Su Wan pursed her lips and deliberately lengthened her tone: "But the courtesy is light and affectionate~"

Luo Shi twisted her ears: "If I don't beat you for three days, I think you are tired and crooked, and you dare to make jokes about the palace?" ”

Su Wan said while hiding: "Your Highness, you won't really like him, will you?" In the past, you wished he was dead, but now it's strange that you actually gave him a gift, what happened when the slave didn't go to Tongguan with you? What kind of ecstasy soup did Li Bu pour you? ”

"If you talk more, if you talk more, the palace doesn't want you, and you will be punished to go to the Huanyi Bureau to be a coolie!"

Su Wan didn't dare to say more, and after thinking about it, she said that women like bad men, and Li Bu can be regarded as a bad man, could it be that His Royal Highness also likes bad men in his bones?

Li Bu was fluttering on the way home, he tried his best to put the bell red rope on his hand, but the skeleton was too big, and he couldn't succeed several times, so he had to give up and put it away closely, and he didn't even remember what Wang Yingying was.

Wanxian was waiting for him at home, she had already cooked the meal, and cooked longevity noodles, she didn't let the next person do it, she prepared all the dishes on the table, and waited for half the night, and finally looked forward to the return.

"I don't think I drank much today?"

Li Bu hummed, looked at the table of dishes, said hard, and then handed over the holy decree to her and asked her to put it away.

Wan Xian said happily: "Your Majesty has given you an official again?" ”

"It's not an official, it's a marriage."

Wanxian hadn't opened it yet, and when she heard him say this, the person was fixed there, and she couldn't move in an instant, and the holy decree became a hot potato, and she put it on the table, let alone touch it, and she didn't want to look at it again: "Marriage?" Be...... Is it the Fifth Highness? ”

"I want her...... It is the daughter of Guanglu Siqing, Wang Yingying, who said that she is a famous talented woman in the capital, I have never heard of it, and I don't know it. ”

Wang Yingying......

This name sounds a little familiar, Wanxian remembered, the woman who came to the house a few days ago, dressed in silk and satin, held her head high recently, so proud and beautiful and unstoppable, came in and reported herself first, and then refused to say a word, walked around and left, that look like patrolling the territory, it turned out to be his future wife?

"I know her, she was here the other day."

"Been here?" Li Bu frowned: "What is she doing here?" ”

Wanxian said that she didn't know, but it didn't matter, he didn't have to think about it, and the next day, Wang Yingying sent someone to send him a post, inviting him to Huichang Building for a gathering and having something to say.

Li Bu also wanted to make it clear to her, so he happily went to the appointment, the restaurant maid led him to the second floor, Wang Yingying was already waiting, standing by the window and didn't know what she was looking at, the wind blew her hair and skirt, and her skirt was painted with a landscape map.

"General Li is coming to Huichang Tower for the first time."

Wang Yingying turned around, not to overwhelm the country and the city, but there is still an appearance, but her face is cold and cold, as if she has a lot of enmity with him.

Li Bu pulled out a chair and sat down, leaned back, and lifted Erlang's legs: "I'm different from Miss Wang, I'm a dirt bun, and this kind of restaurant is really the first time I've come here." ”

"I think General Li is also a bright person, I will say some things directly, I don't want to marry you."

Li Bu laughed when he heard this: "That's right, the two of us want to go together, I don't want to marry you, but Your Majesty's decree has been issued, I can't resist and disobey the decree, if Miss Wang really doesn't want to marry me, then trouble to find a way, if you want to repent of the marriage, I will do my best to cooperate." ”

Wang Yingying doesn't know Li Bu as a person, and she doesn't have any prejudice, she just doesn't like her father to use her like using a chess piece so easily, and bet on her whole life.

There are a lot of rumors about Li Bu, especially his relationship with Luo Fu, Wang Yingying has no intention of verifying the truth or falsehood, Li Bu's cooperation also saves her a lot of things, but it also makes her feel a little frustrated.

She is also famous in the capital, and there are many people who come to her house to propose marriage, but Li Bu looks down on her so much, and her attitude of wanting to quickly regret her marriage makes her feel very uncomfortable, she is proud, so she can't tolerate being despised like this, so she said: "I won't tell you, I went to your house a few days ago, and there is a woman in your family, named Wanxian, right?" She said it's your junior sister, but she is the leader inside and out, and you two are really just senior brothers and sisters? My requirements are very high, and the person I will marry in the future can only have one woman for my life, and I can't even look at other women. ”

"You just said earlier that you don't want to marry me, and now you said that you can't stand that there are other women in my family, I don't plan to marry you, and you don't plan to marry me, what does it matter to you whether there is a woman in my family? Or is Miss Wang self-righteous, thinking that His Majesty is already my person after making a holy decree, so even if she doesn't want to, she can't get used to thinking about it? ”

He really didn't leave any emotion when he spoke, Wang Yingying was scolded by him for a while, she had nothing to say, took a sip of tea, and picked up her proud face again: "Then according to General Li, what should I do if I want to get out of the marriage?" ”

"You called me, what can I do with you." Li Bu stood up and tapped his fingers on the table: "There is a holy purpose pressed from above, I can't take the initiative to withdraw from the marriage, but Miss Wang can, you look at it like the kind of person who is unwilling to be manipulated by others, this is a talented woman in the famous capital, it should be easy to think of a way, right?" ”

"I can't leave Beijing without His Majesty's order, just right, take advantage of this time to solve this matter."

Wang Yingying glared at him: "You said lightly, let me think of a way, what can I do about this kind of thing?" If my dad had listened to me, he wouldn't have come this far. ”

"I have a way, I'm afraid that Miss Wang, you don't want to."

"What's the solution?"

The solution is that Wang Yingying said that he had a good relationship, and the bigger the trouble, the better, and then Guanglu Siqing's face must not be able to hang up, at this time he said to the emperor that he wanted to withdraw from the marriage to fulfill her, and the emperor was not very good at refusing him because he did the wrong thing, after all, this matter was a reward given to him in front of the civil and military officials, and it was impossible for the green hat to be buckled on his head.

But thinking about it, if Wang Yingying is unwilling, this matter will not be done.

This is self-destructive, and she can quit if she marries like this, but she can't stay at home in the future, and don't think about it in the capital, let alone marry someone in the future, this is the next step, and it is a last resort.

Wang Yingying really refused: "Why should I bet on my life's reputation?" ”

Li Bu spread his hands: "This is my method, since Miss Wang disagrees, then what do you want to do, you say, but whatever I can do, I will fully cooperate with you." ”

Wang Yingying said: "I have also heard about you and the Fifth Highness, in fact, there is a better way, that is...... You are with the Fifth Highness, raw rice is cooked and cooked, even if Your Majesty is reluctant, the matter has come to this point, you can only recognize you as a son-in-law, don't you like the Fifth Highness? Kill two birds with one stone, what are you not satisfied with? ”

Li Bu gritted his teeth, and didn't smile: "Don't say that I don't want to, even if the time and place are favorable, and I have taken advantage of it, and I really cook raw rice with His Royal Highness the Fifth Highness, Your Majesty will only click on me with a knife, Miss Wang, you can't wait for me to die!" ”

Wang Yingying wondered: "You like the Fifth Highness so much, such a good opportunity is in front of you, why are you reluctant to do this?" And the attitude of the Fifth Highness towards you is much better than before, as long as you work a little harder, at least sixty percent hope that it will be successful, besides, there are fewer times when you commit crimes? ”
