Chapter 272: Marriage Proposal

"Uncle Shen, just say it here, Xin'er and I have the right to listen." Mu Zeluo guessed that it had something to do with his mother, he wanted to know, his mother was gone, he wanted to know his mother's past, he wanted to know why his mother was always sad and never smiled.

"This" Lord Shen didn't expect Mu Zeluo to have such a request, and from his tone, he could hear a strong desire, if he refused, this little boy would use the identity of the prince to suppress him.

"Uncle Shen, my brother and I are mothers and children, and we have the right to listen, you can rest assured." Mu Zexin persuaded him softly, his temperament is a little different from that of his brother, and he is still that wise and clear boy.

"Since the crown prince and the third prince have said so." Lord Shen didn't want to say it in front of the child, after all, it was for the sake of the royal family, after all, it was not a very glorious thing to reveal the past, and it was even very hurtful, and a careless one would become a burden on the child's heart.

"Xiaruo, you have to be mentally prepared." When he said this, he was worried that he would blame himself and couldn't think about it.

If his face is solemn, he listens quietly, the old story, there are chapters he doesn't know, and it must not be a happy continuation.

Inexplicably, Xia Ruo's heart twitched, and he suddenly didn't want to listen to it, preferring to hope that as Yu'er said, she fell in love with the emperor, and the two of them secretly communicated with each other. She didn't love him anymore and decided to give up on him, she was very happy, and he couldn't give her happiness.

The only thing he could do for her, let go, silently pray for her.

Mi'er doesn't want him anymore, and he hasn't cursed his beloved woman, but he just hopes that she really lives the life she wants.

Sha Wuming, nicknamed Yu'er, is the daughter of a civil official in the capital, and usually stays at home and is raised in the boudoir. Xue Ruo is the only son of the gate of the general of the capital.

The two male owners of the Sha family and the Xia family were iron friends when they were young, and this friendship lasted for decades, and the children of the two families usually walked around, and the relationship was excellent. At the age when love first blooms, it is most likely to secretly have feelings.

The father of the Xia family could see his son's thoughts at a glance, fell in love with Miss Sha family, and was really happy, so he discussed with an old friend to make a marriage.

Sha Wuming is the daughter of the old man Sha, holding the pearl in the palm of his hand, he didn't dare to make a decision privately, so he went back to ask his daughter, replied to an old friend, and decided on a family matter.

After the family affair was settled, Xia Ruo and Sha Wuming became more intimate, and they had to see each other from time to time. Sha Wuming is ingenious, and the literary and female celebrities are all bad.

Xia Ruo saw that Sha Wuming loved more and more, and even called Xiao'er's nickname. Wei'er also has a deeper affection for Xiaruo, and will embroider a handkerchief and embroider some small objects for Xiaruo as a token of love.

Seeing that the wedding date was approaching, it changed because of a war. Mu Zeguo and Sima Guo have been fighting for cities and fields in recent years.

Recently, the conquest has started again, and after the Xia family is a famous general, in this chaotic time, Xia Ruo, as the only son of the general, must go to the front line to conquer the enemy.

In the face of national affairs, the personal feelings of children are not enough to worry about.

The emperor lined up a big battle to save face for the royal family. On the day when Xia Ruo led the troops to the battlefield, Sha Wuming also followed his father to see off his fiancé, and handed him a handkerchief embroidered with mandarin ducks to Xia Ruo, saying that he would get married when he came back.

Only then did he go out to fight with peace of mind.

What Xia Ruo didn't know was that on this day, the emperor sitting in the high hall fell in love with Sha Wuming at a glance.

On the second day after Xia Ruo left, the emperor sent his henchmen to the Sha family to propose marriage. Of course, the old man Sha refused to agree, saying that the little girl had already said that she had already told the family, decided on the family matter, and politely refused the emperor.

Sha Wuming is young and beautiful, soft and lovely, and is a rare beauty, and she can be called the first beauty in the entire capital. The emperor fell in love at a glance, no matter whether Sha Wuming had a family affair or not, he had to snatch it, even if she was married to a wife, the emperor would snatch it.

Got the Sha family's refusal, the emperor sat unsteady for a moment, went out of the palace and went straight to Shafu, when the night fell, the moon was dark and the wind was high, and people's vigilance declined, so he sneaked into Shafu, and touched Sha Wuming's yard, wanting to use force on the innocent girl, fortunately, Sha Wuming said his own words to his mother this night, and was not in the house, and the emperor pounced.

The emperor wanted to turn back the way he came, but as soon as he walked out of Sha Wuming's courtyard, he was arrested by the family and arrested as a flower thief.

As soon as Master Sha heard about it, he hurriedly came to see people, but he never thought it was the emperor, so he hurriedly found a reason to loosen the emperor and let him go.

The emperor fell in love with Sha Wuming at first sight, and came to meet him urgently, but now that he has been discovered, how can he leave Shafu in the air, so he pretended to propose, saying that he wanted Sha Qianjin to reject him personally, and he didn't feel for him, so he died for Miss Sha.

Old Man Sha believed it to be true, and he was anxious to deal with this flying disaster early, so he immediately sent a maid to invite the young lady to come out to see him.

Sha Wuming, who was talking privately to her mother, felt bad when she heard it, and had to come to the front hall to meet her, and her mother was worried that her daughter would collide, so she also came with her.

In the main hall, the emperor was dressed in civilian clothes, sitting on the upper seat, and Old Man Sha stood below in a cold sweat and smiled. At this moment, Sha Wuming and her mother Wan Tingting walked over, and the moonlight was full at the right time, and they sprinkled their bodies obliquely, as if they were wearing the moonlight shirt of Fairy Chang'e for her, adding a fairy and a weak look.

The emperor who was drinking tea was already stunned, beating a drum in his heart, he didn't think that there would be such a beauty in the capital, and he blamed the surname Sha for being too good at hiding, otherwise he would have accepted people into the palace a long time ago, how could there be anything wrong.

Sha Wuming walked into the main hall, the old man Sha was thrilled to introduce his daughter to the emperor, Sha Wuming heard his father's title, and was secretly shocked, wondering why the emperor came to her house in the middle of the night, could it be that Brother Xiaruo was out of something.

Sha Wuming panicked, her heart was half cold, and as soon as she opened her mouth to ask, she was preempted by the emperor, only to hear the emperor use some sour words and sour sentences to express his admiration to her, and wanted to accept her as a concubine.

Although there are countless beauties in the emperor's harem, the position of queen is still vacant, and the words secretly indicate that if the girl is willing, she can be her queen directly.

This emperor is very attentive, but for the first time he took the position of queen to flatter a woman, this time he can express his sincerity, just waiting for Sha Wuming to nod gratefully and get on his sedan chair.

The emperor waited beautifully, and his mind was already tumbling how smooth this beautiful figure and fair and delicate skin were, and the soft and warm bed in his arms was the best product.

Who would have thought that he hadn't finished fantasizing, and then heard a female voice as crisp as a yellow bird ringing gracefully in his ears, neither humble nor arrogant said that he had promised someone, and her love for men had been deeply rooted in the bone marrow.

A clever mouth was like a spring, and he actually blocked all the emperor's words, and the emperor was so angry in his heart that he couldn't wait to scratch the wall, and on the surface, he had to praise Sha Wuming with a pleasant face, and then he was reluctant to leave. I can't touch it, I can't kiss it, the emperor's heart is like a cat scratching, but he is helpless, and he is lonely for a while.

Sha Wuming put her mind at ease, she personally refused, and the emperor also accepted her, a high-ranking emperor would never do something hooligan for her little girl, so Sha Wuming was very relieved.

But the transparent old man Sha was not at ease at all, he knew what the emperor was, and the emperor broke into their house in the middle of the night, just for his daughter, how could he give up easily, so he went to the Shen family and asked the old man Shen, who is also an official, how to deal with things would be more reasonable.

That day, Sha Wuming went to see off Xia Ruo, he could see that something would happen, and the emperor's eyes staring at Sha Wuming were full of possessiveness and inevitable, and sure enough.

Old Man Shen is also thinking about countermeasures, but the other party is the emperor, they are courtiers, what does the emperor want, what can he only give as a courtier, without complaints, what can he do to fool the emperor.

What's more, the emperor is young, wise, intelligent and cunning, and he can't guard against it at all.

Master Shen can't come up with any good ideas, what he can point out is four words: be cautious in words and deeds.

Maybe it will last until Xia Ruo comes back, and everything will be over.

Master Sha accepted Master Shen's suggestion, and if he could not speak in the court, he would not speak, and he would not stay outside the court, and go home directly. After a while, when Master Sha saw that the emperor didn't move, he thought that the emperor had a sense of freshness for his daughter, and after this enthusiasm passed, there was no follow-up, and he was thinking about celebrating with his wife and daughter.

Because he came back from beating Master Shen that time, he was scared, which made his wife and daughter nervous with him, which was really too much, so he planned to let them all relax.

Who would have thought that the next day, the entire capital would have a private meeting with Miss Shafu in the middle of the night, and the fight was hot. There are rumors in the capital, saying that there is a nose and eyes, and the brain makes up one picture after another, and you can imagine that this Sha Wuming has climbed a high branch, and maybe she is the next queen of Mu Zeguo.

The more the rumors got, the old man Sha couldn't resist it, but at this time, the old man of the Xiafu Mansion came to the door to ask for a resignation, he couldn't stand the emperor's woman, and the old man Sha tried all kinds of explanations to no avail, and forcibly withdrew from the family.

When the emperor saw that there was an opportunity, he took advantage of this to come to Shafu to propose marriage.

"This Miss Sha is also a fierce woman, no matter what the emperor says, what kind of moving promises he makes, he doesn't want to enter the palace, he has to wait for you to come back from the battlefield, ask you, believe the rumors from the outside world, or believe her." Speaking of that touching past, Lord Shen didn't feel that his eyes were moist, he didn't meet his current wife at that time, and he was also moved by Sha Wuming when he was young and frivolous.

Seeing that she had a daughter's family, she was forced to a dead end by the emperor, and she was indignant, but his father was a civil official, and he couldn't manage the royal affairs at all, so where did he get the idea.

The emperor's method is that he has to get people, otherwise he will not stop.

"Since my mother has refused, why did I finally marry my father?" The word daddy really couldn't be called, Mu Zexin's heart was instantly clenched by the young man in the past, if he could, he really wanted to go back to his mother's time to protect her and not let her be hurt in the slightest.

Xia Ruo, who was listening to the sidelines, was already infatuated, the woman he had always loved and hated, had suffered such a big grievance without his knowledge.

Why did he get married, he naturally knew. Lord Shen didn't need to say any further, he could guess what kind of coercion Yu'er had suffered.

"If she doesn't want to marry again, isn't it easy for the emperor to marry her." Lord Shen sighed, "The emperor asked people to do tricks on the accounts of the Sha family, and asked people to impeach the Sha family for corruption and bribery in the court, and directly put the old man and his wife in prison, but he didn't embarrass her." She is a girl's family who begged all the relationships that the capital can ask for, who dares to wade into this troubled water, even my father, is not sure to keep Shafu. In the end, she was cornered and could only promise the emperor to marry into the palace. ”

Marrying someone is obviously the happiest thing for a cardamom woman, but it has become Sha Wuming's saddest thing and a shame for her life.

"No wonder my mother is always lukewarm to my father, it turns out that my father forcibly married." Mu Zeluo muttered, the past grievances were revealed, and he finally figured out why his mother was not salty or light to anyone in this deep palace, and she was not like other women competing for favor, he thought that his mother's shelf was too high, and he wanted to capture his father's heart, but he didn't think that she had any feelings for his father.
