Even though I wanted to keep Xi Xi, Shu Wen still insisted on asking him to go to the post of commander-in-chief of Duxi. I lost my temper for this, but in fact, I knew in my heart that no one could stop Shu Wen from doing what he wanted to do, and he had a kind of stubbornness in his bones.

The day before he left, I summoned him. In addition to telling him what to do, I asked Xiao Chu to fetch my jewelry box.

"Xixi, this is for you." It's also a bracelet, but it's jadeite, a thick dark green that can't be dissolved, "When you get to the right girl's house over there, just give this to her." Most of the women in the west are fair-skinned, and this green bracelet must be very beautiful. ”

When I saw that he was just standing still and not moving, I took out a brocade handkerchief from his bosom, wrapped the bracelet, and stuffed it into his hand.

"Your Excellency......" he stared at me, his light brown eyes flowing with indescribable emotion.

I wanted him to live in the sun, but now I had to push him into the shadows with my own hands. I don't know how long it will take to see each other again, the situation in the west is so complicated, is he used to it? But what if you don't adapt? It's a big deal to fall a few times, and when you get back up, you'll be a mature and sophisticated man. If you are smart, you have to think about yourself, first marry the Qin family, establish a foothold, and then break into the Qin family and stir them to pieces. A big family like the Qin family must start from the inside. Then, support other scholars, fight so many battles on the frontier and make some military achievements, and often go to the nobles to visit the sect to give them enough face, and it's almost the same.

"Xixi, men are ambitious in all directions, and the more complex the place, the more they can hone people. Three years, three years later, if you do a good job, I will ask the emperor to transfer you back to be an official. ”

"Xixi, when you get over there, take good care of yourself."

"Xixi, the affairs of the Qin family are entrusted to you. You are my most trusted subordinate, and I can only rest assured if you go. ”

"Xi Xi ......"

My thinking was disordered, and in the end, I could only think of what to say. And he didn't say a word, just looked at me.

In the end, there was nothing more to talk about, but to let him retreat.

"No, wait!"

He turned around, and I chased after him, standing on tiptoe to help him straighten his collar. "I'm so old that I won't clean myself up!" I smiled gently at him, "Go ahead!" ”

"Your Excellency......" He stared at me, his light brown eyes were still indescribably emotional, and he seemed to understand what was firm, his eyes became clearer, and he turned away.

Walking out of my cold palace, the morning sun fell on him.

A clear boy bathed in sunlight.

No longer just as long as I give orders to see him, even how late he will rush to me, disheveled, embarrassed and cute.

I will never stand in the hall quietly waiting like a good boy with a tepid smile when I am angry and thinking of a countermeasure.

I will never ask to see me in a hurry again, but when I heard Xiao Chu say that I was changing clothes or taking a bath, my face was so red that I was like rouge.

That sunny boy was finally pushed into the bottomless abyss by me.

In fact, the reason why I trusted him so much and protected him so much in the past was because I admired his simplicity and cuteness. Think about me as a child, with a deformed life experience, drifting with my brother, in order to reassure my brother, I pretended to be sunny. But my brother didn't know until he died, and my heart was always as gloomy as he was.

As long as there is more than one woman in the harem, it will make waves. It's only been a few days, and I heard that Concubine Lan and Concubine Ju are fighting for Jinhe Palace - they both love the strange flowers and plants there, but in fact, it's because Shu Wen likes the cherry blossoms there. Every year when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, Shu Wen has to live there for a while, everyone knows it. Fighting spirit, it's nothing, but Concubine Mei prides herself on being a talented woman again, and she goes to persuade them, she wants to invite a merit but annoys the queen, the queen means that this matter is not Concubine Mei's turn, and she feels that Concubine Mei has robbed her of the management of the harem - this is probably also to show the queen's prestige and let others know that the queen is not easy to mess with. Later, when he got to Shu Wen, Shu Wen gave Jinhe Palace to Concubine Mei, who was wronged by the queen's punishment. In fact, this doesn't make much sense, I guess Shu Wen is also annoyed, so he placed it casually.

It's a lot of trouble over there, and I just feel chills here. I'm not as virtuous and virtuous as Concubine Mei, I don't have much bearing, I can't tolerate the man I like to have other women, and I can't tolerate them making trouble in front of my eyes. Shu Wen, if I'm not mistaken, you said last time that you would have a way, right? Where's your solution? Is that it? I sneered and □□ the hem of my clothes.

Qin Che, I came to ask to see him when I didn't want to see him the most. got her wish and sent her sister to the palace, and now I heard that Shu Wen spent the night in her palace for a few days in a row, and she is even more proud, right?

"In my opinion, those who have not been admitted to the church shall not be officials."

"But now that the call for the separation of church and state is quite loud, isn't your suggestion against the will of the people?"

"Politics and religion are inseparable. As long as all officials are Christians, there is no need to mention the separation of church and state. ”

"If all the officials are believers, then are they loyal to the palace or the emperor?"

"Allegiance to the bishop and loyalty to the emperor are the same thing, and the power of the church and the power of the monarch are the same."

What he said is completely consistent with the doctrine and national law, there is no deviation from it, and it is beyond reproach, but as soon as I say it, it is tantamount to declaring to the world that I have the ambition to govern. Qin Che is really not an ordinary reader.

"Well, that's good. But it's not enough to say it directly, it's too sudden. Please let the minister first build some momentum for me in the government and the opposition. ”

"Yes."

"This matter has to be done slowly, when the government and the opposition recognize this article, this palace thinks that the name of this palace can be changed to the archbishop of the protectorate, what do you think?"

"Not impossible."

"But in the end, it may be a little troublesome on the emperor's side...... He'll object, and it's hard for this palace to speak......"

"I'll just give you advice below, and as for whether you want to do that or not, let your adult decide for yourself."

"Well, it's still early anyway."

"So, I'll retire next."

I turned from the perspective of looking out the window and saw his jade-colored robe disappear into the twilight. I sneered, and he started to take the bait, didn't he? Tell Shu Wen the news in the evening.

Just after the meal, the people were cleaning up the table, and a palace maid came to report: "Concubine Lan is happy!" ”

What is this emotion? Anger, heartbreaking, pain, feeling betrayed, loneliness......

Is it that fast? Shu Wen, who said in my ear a few months ago that he would not give them a chance, will become the father of the Prince of Qin in a few months. He really didn't give the Qin family the opportunity to monopolize the harem, but he gave them the opportunity to blackmail the Son of Heaven to establish the princes after a hundred years!

That's not the most important thing, the most important thing is that I can't allow him to have children with other women! It doesn't matter if it's Concubine Lan or not!

When I became a bishop, I couldn't marry him, and I knew five years ago that he would get to this point, and he would always have a wife and children. He married a wife, and I could think that they were only a husband and wife in name, and I could think that he was just perfunctory. But when he had a child with someone else, I couldn't deny anything anymore!

It turns out that when this day comes, I will still be sad. I still can't stand it.

Alone in the study, secretly wiping away tears and dealing with business.

"Your Highness, it's so late, aren't you resting?" Xiao Chu knocked on the door and asked/

"Oh, I have a lot of things to do today, and I need to use them urgently tomorrow, so I have to deal with them. Leave me alone, I'll sleep in my study today. ”

Xiao Chu didn't make a sound, he should have left.

Take a sip of tea. What am I in? I'm working hard. Why? Because......

Because Concubine Lan is pregnant, I can't stand it. I want to numb myself, I want to forget.

And then what?

Continue to do what I have to do, perhaps, I should accept Qin Che's proposal, I want to be the archbishop of the protectorate, without love, I want power......

Qin Che's proposal! Qin Che's proposal!

Why did I suddenly decide to accept his offer?

Because Concubine Lan is pregnant.

Stand up sharply, open the window, and take a big breath of air.

Qin Che, I had expected it a long time ago. He's so smart that he deliberately provoked me and Shu Wen to fight for power, and then no matter what the consequences were, we would lose a lot, and he would benefit from it, wouldn't he?

In that case, you might as well count it out.

turned around and returned to his seat, but found Shu Wen standing against the door, as if he had been here for a long time.

You can't be wrong, that kind of gentle eyes that can drown me belong only to those who love me.

"Chu Chu... Chu Chu..."

I vaguely heard someone calling the name in the distance, and I walked forward, trying to see the appearance of the person coming.

The man stood not far in front of me, but his face was hard to see because of the smoke.

I tried to take two more steps forward, but I found that my feet were no longer moving.

"Chu Chu... Chu Chu..."The voice calling me became more and more flustered and worried.

The man walked up to me, and I hurriedly cleared the smoke from my eyes to see who was coming. Suddenly, the world collapsed, and the white smoke turned black in the blink of an eye.

I frowned and opened my eyes.

"Chu Chu!" The man in front of the bed hugged me like crazy, "Chu Chu! You're finally awake! You know, I almost thought you were going to... Just..."

Ah, it's cousin. I hugged the man back, putting my hand behind his back and patting it gently until the person in front of me stopped trembling.

Fu Qing slowly sent his hand away.

"Cousin" I raised my hand to smooth the mountains and rivers on his brow, "Don't worry, Chu Chu isn't there nothing at all?"

Fu Qing took my hand and said to me eagerly, "Chu Chu, when I marry you, I will never let you suffer any more in the future, I will make you a master and a phoenix among the phoenixes."

I lowered my eyes. Is it? Feng Zhongfeng, what an ambition. It's a pity I didn't.

I raised my eyes and stared at the person in front of me, and my serious and serious appearance couldn't help but make the person in front of me stunned.

"Chu Chu, don't you believe your cousin?"

What if you believe, and what if you don't believe.

After all, I smiled "Cousin, I'll wait for you"

The world knows that the young lady Gu Chuchu of the Prime Minister's family is captivating the country and the city, and her beauty is unparalleled in the world, and she naturally knows that this young lady has not known what disease she has suffered from since she was a child, and her body is weak. Although it is sighing, it adds a breath of pity to the beauty.

And the dignified Prime Minister Gu Cheng's nephew Fu Qing is also a rare talent in Pingcheng, with good looks and good conduct.

And because of the Wu year of Pingcheng, the Wei River was meritorious in controlling the water, and at the age of twelve, he was personally named "the son of Wenmo" by the emperor

Because there are very few men so good in the world, countless girls in Pingcheng secretly promised to deal with Qingfang, but they all died without a problem after all.

How so?

Naturally, it is because everyone knows that Young Master Fu and the young lady of Gu Chengxiang's family are childhood sweethearts. This pair of handsome men and beauties have grown up together since childhood, and they have long become a good story among the people.

I heard that Young Master Fu is a good friend to the Gu family, and he is even more spoiled than Prime Minister Gu. What Miss Gu wants, the young master Fu has to find it for her.

One night, Miss Gu pointed to the stars in the sky on a whim and asked Young Master Fu to take them off for him. That young master Fu really thought of a lot of ways to try to pick the stars in the sky to the beauties. Naturally, none of them turned out to be successful.

Later, the young master found another way, and actually caught hundreds of fireflies in the cold winter and put them in the prime minister's mansion, which made the beauty laugh and bend over.

As for how Young Master Fu found so many fireflies in that season, no one knows so far.

One day, Miss Gu wanted to eat pastries, but the cooks in the Prime Minister's Mansion couldn't satisfy her. So she told Young Master Fu about the method of the unique pastry, and the young master went out for a few months, and finally figured out a pastry that satisfied Miss Gu.

And because the pastry is made in a peculiar way, it requires fresh ingredients such as bamboo shoots, roses, honey, etc., and it should not be left for more than a day. That Miss Gu was so hungry that she wanted to eat every day, so Young Master Fu really made pastries for her every day from that day.

It's easy to say, but people always have bad memories, but the young master really never complains day after day. Later, regardless of whether the young lady ate it or not, the pastries sent every day were never less.

Even in the season when there are no roses in full bloom, Young Master Fu will find fresh roses to make cakes for her.

In short, Miss Gu's strange requests, the young master will meet them one by one.

I was lying on the floor, covered with the fox skin that Fu Qing had sent.

It is said that this fox skin was made by the nine-tailed fox that he personally went to the nine-tailed mountain for three days and three nights without sleep. I couldn't help but chuckle and stroke the soft fur with my hand.

Chunju chattered endlessly, telling me all kinds of folk rumors, nothing more than how beautiful and moving the people passed on the young lady of the prime minister's family.

I listened to the chatter around me, but my thoughts drifted farther and farther away.

"Miss... Suddenly, the girl's voice became worried, and it brought back my thoughts.

I turned my head to look at Chunju "What's wrong?"

"Miss, Young Master Fu has sent pastries again" Chunju covered her mouth and smiled, "This young master pastry has never fallen for a day."

I looked at the pastries on the table, white and blue, like pastries but more like jade, and it made people appetize.

I picked up a piece and put it in my mouth, the familiar smell spread, and the cheerful voice of the teenager faintly rang in my ears...

"Chu Chu, is it delicious?"

"If you like it, I'll make pastries myself every day from now on."

"If it's a day off? If one day you cut me with a thousand knives, shall you? ”

Many years passed, and that day never appeared.

After eating the pastry in my mouth, I felt a little drowsy, wrapped in the fox skin in front of me, and my body couldn't help but shiver with cold. Seeing this, Chunju hurriedly helped me to the bed.

I slowly closed my eyes, winter was coming.

I had a dream in which I dreamed that I was a young boy and a girl who had no guesses. The boy took the girl out to play, and the boy took the girl's hand and said in high spirits, "Chu Chu, do you hear, everyone says that we are together like a heavenly work."

Suddenly the scene changed, the young man in front of him matured a lot, he reached out and stroked the girl's head and sighed softly, "Chu Chu, what do you want?"

What do I want, and how can I get it?

I was just about to open my mouth when my dream collapsed.

I opened my eyes, looked at the darkness around me, and sighed faintly.

Dream reality, which is true and which is false? It's just a matter of nothing.

On the second day, my body improved a lot, and I wanted to go out for a break after a long time.

said that he was going out, but he was just walking out of the boudoir. My father rarely let me go out of the door of the Gu family, when I was young, I often took me out to play, and then my body became weaker and weaker, that is, I haven't gone out for a long time, and then it has been Chunju who tells me folk stories for me to entertain and be bored.

How long has it been since you left the house? It's been so long that I can't remember.

I lazily leaned against the hallway next to the pond and took a nap. Just now, I was talking about the old days with Fu Qing, but my father suddenly summoned Fu Qing to discuss political affairs, and I was idle in the corridor, feeling the autumn when time was short.

Suddenly, a man's hearty laughter sounded in the hallway, and I squinted to see two men dressed in wealth standing in front of me. One is dressed in green clothes and exudes a cheerful atmosphere, and the other is dressed in black with a cold bearing, which makes people want to bow their heads.

It's a picture of a beautiful man, and I'm fascinated.

"Bold maid, I didn't kneel when I saw the prince" The man in Tsing Yi was a little annoyed when he saw me like this, "Fourth brother, you see that the rules of the prime minister's house are getting worse and worse"

I was stunned, and suddenly remembered that it was very early to pay off today, and I was troublesome, so I asked Chunju to hurriedly loosen a simple headdress and go out. Pingguo has always been like this, women's dignity is distinguished by headdresses, and the more cumbersome the more noble.

Therefore, it is natural to be called a maid.

The one who was called the fourth brother was the fourth prince Zhao Cheng, and the only one who had such a close relationship with Zhao Cheng was the sixth prince Zhao Zhun.

I immediately jumped off the railing, pulled up my dress and saluted, and then smiled brightly, "I have seen the four princes and the six princes, and the people's daughter Gu Chuchu"

At the hearing of my name, the body of the man in black shook, and then returned to normal.

Zhao Zhun was stunned, "Chu Chu... Are you Miss Gu Chuchu? ", and then realized his gaffe, and said to me, "It's smart, but why do you call the fourth brother the fourth prince, and now you should have changed your name to the prince."

I was stunned, and hurriedly saluted again, "The folk girl grew up in the house since she was a child, and she doesn't know anything about the affairs of the court, so please don't blame the prince"

"That's it, my fourth brother is not such a stingy person, but you don't even know such a big thing, it's a little..."

"Chu Chu!" Fu Qing came from nowhere, hurriedly interrupted the words of the sixth prince Zhao Zhun, and then pulled me behind him, and saluted the two of them, "I have seen the crown prince and the sixth prince, the minister and Chu Chu still have something, so I will leave first" and hurriedly took me out of here.

As I was leaving, I felt a pair of black eyes staring at me tightly, cold and dangerous, and I couldn't help but shudder.

The fourth prince Zhao Cheng is really a terrible person, even if he doesn't say a word from beginning to end, he gives people enough pressure and deterrence, and his black eyes are even more unpredictable.

Fu couldn't help but sigh, I lived in a dream made up by someone I don't know, and I didn't know that the court had already changed.

I was immersed in my own thoughts, and before I knew it, I was taken to the boudoir by Fu Qing, and he gently hugged me, and my body couldn't stop shaking.

I gently patted him on the back as usual and asked, "Cousin, what are you afraid of?"

What are you afraid of?

The man on his chest slowly stopped trembling, and Fu Qing took my hand, "Chu Chu, I'm not afraid of anything, the only thing I'm afraid of is losing you"

I tilted my head and stared at Fu Qing, "How could my cousin lose me, am I not about to become my cousin's wife?"

"Yes, Chu Chu is my future wife" Fu Qing didn't say anything more, stroked my hair without saying a word, and struggled in his eyes.

After feeding me two mouthfuls of pastries, Fu Wan lulled me to sleep and left.

I opened my eyes and burst into tears.

After all, I can't hide from it, and this day is coming after all.

As expected, a few days later, the emperor issued an order to give me to the crown prince, and from now on, Gu Chuchu, the daughter of Prime Minister Gu, will become a quasi-crown princess.

I took the decree and closed my eyes.

Sure enough, it is a man and a phoenix. I see, but that's it.

I shut myself in the door of my room, did not eat or drink for three days, and did not see anyone, and the rumors around me only said that I was hurt by love, and I was in love with my cousin, and even the prince did not want to marry.

My fame is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more good words, and there are almost no rumors of the reincarnation of Nuwa.

Now it's exactly what you want.

Three days later, I pushed the door open, and the sunlight was shining on my face, and I suddenly figured out a lot, and I saw it too.

Chunju had already stomped her feet anxiously, and hurriedly changed my clothes and waited for me to eat, "Miss has suffered, and she is even thinner, and the master and Young Master Fu must be very sad to see it" Tears fell as he spoke.

I patted Chunju's hand to comfort me, but in the end I couldn't say anything.

Then I went with Chunju to visit my father, and when I saw the white flowers on the head of the man who was no longer young, his nose was sore.

"My good daughter, I have wronged you"

"Daddy, my daughter is not wronged"

Staring at the clarity in front of me, my father sighed, trying to open his mouth to say something, but still couldn't say anything.

Eventually, my father shushed me again and asked me to go back to rest.

At night, I looked up at the moon and stars in the sky, this world is vast, and we are so small

What can you change on your own?

Daddy, what are you going to change?

The wedding date is getting closer and closer, and on this day I was sitting on the bed in a daze, bored biting on the pastries sent from Fu Qing, when a blue color suddenly appeared in front of me.

Fu Qing hugged me tightly, and the hot kiss fell from my eyes to my lips and then to my neck.

My indifferent voice sounded at the right time, "Cousin, it's not the way of a decent man and a gentleman to climb through the window"

The person in front of him was stunned, and his hot body suddenly became cold.
