With a "bang", Liu Zhaocheng threw the Minghuang Song Shu in his hand to the ground.

Chen Ju waited for a moment before slowly walking in, picking up Song Shu and putting it back on the table.

Liu Zhaocheng didn't raise his eyelids and snorted coldly: "I want to marry the princess but I have no sincerity, obviously I am threatening my big man, he doesn't think about it!"

"Chu wolf's ambition, once Qi and Chu form an alliance, the consequences will be unimaginable. The speaker stood in the corner of the hall, dressed in an inky robe, hidden in the darkness, his voice devoid of emotion.

"If you want to fight, you will fight, my big man will be afraid that he will not succeed!" Liu Zhaocheng's eyes shot at He Yuan like a sharp arrow, staring at his face, "General He, you have thought clearly, once the princess and her relatives will not be able to regret it." ”

After a long time, I heard He Yuan say: "Minister, advocate harmony." ”

"Huh. Liu Zhaocheng sneered and smashed the jade seal at him, "It's a pity that I don't agree." ”

A figure flashed at the gate outside the hall, and soon a carrier pigeon flew out of the imperial city.

However, in two or three days, the news that Qi Guo asked to marry the ninth princess but was rejected by the saint spread throughout Chang'an City.

This is nothing, the envoys of Qi have left, whether the princess has the emperor in person decides.

The bad thing is that half a month later, news came out of Wei that the eighth princess Liu Xiyan and Chu Yuanqing were caught and raped by Wei Guojun in bed and died in the palace, and the new Wei Guojun wanted to avenge his father and sent troops to the Han.

The Han knew that he was at a loss and wanted peace, but he didn't want Wei to hang the corpse of the eighth princess at the gate of the city for three days and three nights, and the news was transmitted back to the Han, and the emperor was furious and immediately sent the general Liu Shouwen to dispatch a million troops to Wei.

The Wei State had the help of the Chu State, and it was menacing, and Liu Shouwen's army was defeated in half a month, and even lost ten cities in a row.

The atmosphere in the court hall became more and more tense day by day.

At this moment, Qi Guo wrote again to ask to marry the Ninth Princess, and Liu Zhaocheng looked at the letterhead and was silent.

The civil and military officials led by the prime minister knelt at the noon gate and begged the princess to be reconciled.

When Liu Xiyue learned the news, the civil and military officials had already knelt for two days.

"Princess......" Yun Yan ran in with red eyes, "There is news in front that the Empress Dowager directly passed Her Majesty and agreed to Qi Guo's courtship. ”

"I'm going to find the queen mother. Liu Xiyue threw the pen in her hand and hurriedly ran out of Chaoxia Palace.

Jiang Yanran had just recovered from her injuries and walked around on the ground, when she heard the movement, she was hit by Liu Xiyue when she walked to the yard, and she was dizzy, Yunyan ran out and grabbed Jiang Yanran's hand, and said breathlessly: "Oh no, the princess has gone to Ci'an Palace, hurry, stop her." ”

"What's going on?" Jiang Yanran asked anxiously.

Yunyan quickly told the recent events, and Jiang Yanran chased after him without caring about anything else.

She ran too fast, and collided with Liu Hanxing who was coming this way around the corner.

Liu Hanxing leaned against the wall to stabilize his figure, and couldn't help coughing low, his face was pale and transparent, and he was very emaciated. But it turned out that a few days ago, I didn't know why I was seriously ill, and as soon as I was able to get up, I heard about Qi Guo's request to marry, and I hurriedly came to Chaoxia Palace.

Jiang Yanran quickly got up, held the crumbling Liu Hanxing, and said worriedly: "Childe, how are you, I'll call the imperial doctor."

Liu Hanxing shook his head and said that it was okay.

"You're running in such a hurry, but what's wrong?"

Jiang Yanran hadn't returned to Yun Yan, who had followed behind, and said, "Son, go to Ci'an Palace to persuade our princess, she ......"

"Ci'an Palace is the place where the Empress Dowager is honored, you can't make a mistake, go back and wait, I will personally go and bring Jiu'er back." Before Yunyan finished speaking, Liu Hanxing hurriedly turned around and walked towards Ci'an Palace after dropping these words.

......

"Queen Mother, Xiyue asks to see the Queen Mother, open the door!"

Liu Xiyue was stopped at the gate of Ci'an Palace, pulling her neck and yelling inside.

Mama Feng hugged the struggling Liu Xiyue with tears in her eyes, "Princess, listen to the old slave's persuasion to go back, the Empress Dowager doesn't love you, there is really no way." ”

"Mama, get out of the way, I want to see the queen mother!"

"Princess ......"

Mama Feng was still persuading, but the closed door creaked open, and out of it came a woman dressed in palace clothes, with eyebrows and eyes exactly the same as Liu Xiyue.

"Mother, ......," Liu Xiyue muttered when she saw her.

The people around saluted and called the concubine.

Concubine Xi walked up to Liu Xiyue without saying a word, and raised her hand to slap her, "Liu Xiyue, how long are you going to mess around." ”

"In your eyes, I'm just a joke, a joke. ”

Liu Xiyue said word by word with red and swollen eyes: "But I am also a human being, I have my own life, I don't want to be used as a puppet to marry into the Qi State and become a political victim, the eighth sister is gone, don't you understand? ”

"You really don't understand!" Concubine Xi said coldly: "As a princess, you should be ready to sacrifice for the country from birth, this is your mission." ”

"No, I won't go to Qi unless I die. ”

Liu Xiyue stubbornly raised her face.

Concubine Xi suddenly laughed, "Jiu'er, who do you want to marry if you don't marry Qi Gongzi?"

"Do you know that he is the one who advocated and led the way this time!"

Liu Xiyue violently struggled to let go of the palace attendants' hands, shaking her head and retreating: "No, I don't believe it. ”

"Then you can ask him. Concubine Xi screamed: "Liu Xiyue, as long as He Yuan agrees to marry you, you don't have to be with Qi Guo, you go and ask him if he wants to marry you!"

"Don't go back!" Liu Xiyue roared and turned around and ran out of the palace.

"Boom-" The sky suddenly rained heavily, Liu Xiyue had just left, Concubine Xi laughed twice and fainted in the arms of the palace attendant beside her, Liu Hanxing happened to bump into this scene when she arrived, and shouted to take Concubine Xi.

......

Liu Xiyue met He Yuan in the backyard of the General's Mansion.

She walked up to He Yuan in embarrassment, step by step, looking into his eyes.

"He Yuan, are you willing to marry me?"

"As long as you nod your head, I'll marry you. ”

He Yuan was silent and did not speak.

Liu Xiyue suddenly understood, it turned out that everything was just her own passion.

"Brother Yuan, Jiu'er, is it okay to marry you. ”

"Brother Yuan, Jiu'er is waiting for you, waiting for you to come back and marry me. ”

"Brother Yuan—"

It turned out that I couldn't wait for a long time, I couldn't wait.

Liu Xiyue retreated, the person in front of her was so unfamiliar, she suddenly felt very cold, from the inside to the outside, as if it was the coldest winter, lying in the snow and going to freeze to death.

"He Yuan, you don't have a heart!"

"Princess. He Yuan suddenly spoke, his voice was hoarse, he took out a hairpin from his arms and handed it to Liu Xiyue.

It was a green hairpin, not gold or jade, the material was ordinary, but the workmanship was fine, and it was the one on the stall before.

"What are you giving me this?"

Liu Xiyue secretly expects that if you open your mouth to keep me now, even if it is just one word, I will forgive you.

He Yuan, you say, you love me, you say you will marry me, you say you are reluctant to marry someone else.

"On His Royal Highness's birthday, I am afraid that I will not be able to be present, so I will make up for the birthday ceremony. ”

Liu Xiyue closed her eyes in disappointment, opened them again, reached out and picked up the hairpin, and threw it directly to the ground to watch it shatter in half, "He Yuan, you and I will never see each other in the future." ”

"You're doing it yourself. ”

After saying that, he didn't look at him again, and turned to leave.

The rain was heavier, He Yuan stood for a long time and suddenly remembered that there was no one waiting for Liu Xiyue by his side, and he didn't bring rain gear, so he hurriedly chased him out, and he didn't see Liu Xiyue until the palace gate.

"I'm sorry ......"

Ah Jiu, you wait for me for three years, and I will personally take you back to Chang'an in three years.
