Chapter 160: Father-Son Differences
The chief eunuch spoke out to help the six princes, but the emperor still didn't let go, and he couldn't help it.
Finally, in the evening, the emperor asked the imperial dining room to send the food directly to the imperial study.
Chu Hongze followed the eunuch who delivered the meal in, holding a plate of vegetables in his hand and respectfully serving it to the emperor.
"You're a quick one, and you'll come in after a while." The emperor looked at Chu Hongze respectfully and couldn't help but mock.
"Father, why don't you let me send troops to rescue Ruyi?" Chu Hongze looked at the emperor seriously, with a puzzled look on his face, but the emperor seemed to treat him as if he didn't exist, and he ate calmly, ignoring him at all.
Chu Hongze wanted to persuade the emperor to send troops to help him rescue Wen Ruyi today, but the emperor did not express his position, so Chu Hongze has been patiently waiting on the side, waiting for the emperor to put down the dishes and chopsticks.
"Ze'er, I think you should know that a husband can't make a mistake because of his children's personal feelings, not to mention the situation in Longteng Kingdom, you also understand that if you rush to send troops, this is ......" The emperor's tiger eyes were full of awe-inspiring looks, and his sword eyebrows were frowned, and he disagreed with Chu Hongze's current approach.
"But Ruyi, she can't even want her life for me, how can I bear her? Father, do you want your son to be an ungrateful man? Chu Hongze stubbornly met the emperor's gaze, his face full of sorrow.
"Ruyi is a general knowledge, she will understand you. If the two countries are at war because of her, there will be countless casualties and the people of Li will also be in misery, and she is afraid that she will not want to see it. ”
"Besides, Ruyi is the Rui princess of our Longteng Kingdom, Mu Zirong will not do anything to her, you can rest assured of this." The emperor was determined, although Mu Zirong was the prince of the enemy country, but he had been a proton here for a long time, and his temperament was still somewhat understood, if he really wanted Wen Ruyi's life, he was afraid that he would have done it a long time ago, so why wait again and again.
Chu Hongze recalled that when he was in the enemy country, he really didn't hear that Mu Zirong attacked Ruyi, but Mu Zirong's kid was not pure-minded, "Father, but it's ••••••"
"Don't say it, I'm going to rest, you go back first, we can only think about these things in the long run, don't act recklessly, you, as the prince of Longteng Kingdom, should also focus on the overall situation." Chu Hongze wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the emperor, all Chu Hongze's words were blocked in his throat and couldn't be spoken, seeing the emperor's resolute attitude, he had to retire.
Outside is already the willow head on the moon, unconsciously he has spent an afternoon in the imperial study, Chu Hongze used to not like to show his true feelings, but today is to save people's hearts, to the emperor to show his importance to Ruyi, afraid that it will be unfavorable to Ruyi in the future, I can't help but have a thousand thoughts in my heart.
The shadow of the moon is moving between the branches, and the weather is gradually getting cooler, I don't know what Ruyi's situation is now? I don't know if she was wronged in Mu Zirong, but she stood under the moon like herself, missing her?
Under the same moon, Wen Ruyi is indeed looking at the moon, the moon of this other country is indeed not relatively round, Wen Ruyi remembered a lyric, and couldn't help laughing in her heart, it was in this situation that she could still entertain herself, Wen Ruyi, you are really tight!
When the moon looked at it again, it was more cordial.
"What do you think of, smiling so happily?" It is rare for Mu Zirong not to be entangled in heavy official duties tonight, so he took time to come here to Wen Ruyi, walked from afar, and saw that under the moonlight, that little face was as bright as jade, and the smile was sweet to his heart.
It's just that the little face wrinkled into a small bun after he spoke, and all his emotions have been restrained.
Wen Ruyi really didn't know what kind of mood to face Mu Zirong, when they were in Longteng Country before, the two didn't have a deep friendship, but they also had a friendship like water, they didn't have a grudge, and Mu Zirong even saved her.
But now, she exchanged her life for her life, and was imprisoned by him in the deep palace of this enemy country, and she also had some complaints about him, but this was also her own decision, and she couldn't blame anyone.
"Miss Wen, do you dislike this king so much?" Mu Zirong looked at the tangled expression on the bun face and didn't know how to be good, felt cute and uncomfortable, did he really make her so annoying?
"Hmm...... No, I just don't know how to tell you? "Wen Ruyi was a straight person in his last life, and he spoke straightforwardly, so he offended some people, and now he is also bluntly making Mu Zirong speechless, but I think that Wen Ruyi, who has such a true temperament and is not pretentious, is more pleasing to the eye.
"Hahaha, Miss Wen, I really like you more and more." Mu Zirong dared to say it, and this rampant appearance of laughing in the sky, when he was a proton in Longteng Country before, it was impossible for him to laugh.
Wen Ruyi saw him like that, and knew that Mu Zirong had revealed her true temperament after returning to China, and she was afraid that she had suppressed it for too long, but she didn't want to be liked by him.
"Don't, I can't afford it." Wen Ruyi shook her hand, with an embarrassed expression on her face, she knew Mu Zirong's intentions, and naturally she didn't like to make these jokes with him.
Mu Zirong didn't speak again, just stayed with Wen Ruyi and watched the moon for a while, Wen Ruyi was staying next to such a person, and felt very uncomfortable, so he found a reason to leave first.
Mu Zirong naturally knew Wen Ruyi's thoughts, and he couldn't help but feel a trace of disappointment in his heart, but he knew that he couldn't rush it.
In the past few days, Wen Ruyi has been locked up in Mu Zirong's mansion and is about to get sick, but as a captive, she can't be too presumptuous, but Mu Zirong sent people to ask her what she lacked several times, and the maid who asked her was also a discerning person, so she passed on Wen Ruyi's boring words to Mu Zirong several times.
That day, Mu Zirong dealt with the things at hand early, and took Wen Ruyi to the most prosperous night market in the city in the evening by carriage.
Although I have visited the night market in Longteng Country, but a country has a characteristic, the customs and food here also have their own flavor, Wen Ruyi, who has always been familiar with him, quickly became a food friend with Muzi, and he was in a much more comfortable mood outside.
"Hey, Mu Zirong, you try this, I didn't expect you to have these things here, it's really delicious." Wen Ruyi handed a string of bamboo skewers wearing meatballs and vegetables to Mu Zirong, Wen Ruyi knew that that thing was called oden, but she didn't expect that there was also one here, which made her feel a little homesick, and she couldn't help but feel a little melancholy.
Mu Zirong looked at the skewer of food, and he couldn't get his hands on it, he was also a prince of a country, even if he went to Longteng Country to be a proton, he had never eaten such people's food, but he was polite Next, he took another bite under Wen Ruyi's expectant gaze.
It's not amazing, but it's not unpalatable, and there's nothing special about him.
"It's delicious." As soon as Wen Ruyi met food, she forgot that she was still a captive under the fence, and began to go shopping wantonly, buying what suited her taste, forgetting that she had no money, just looking at the food, and then looking at Mu Zirong, Mu Zirong bought it for her, and when she ate something delicious, she asked Mu Zirong to taste it too.
The two of them established a shallow friendship from this, as long as Wen Ruyi stretched out his hand, Mu Zirong knew to pick it up, and he had to evaluate it after eating.
In fact, these foods really didn't have much attraction to Mu Zirong, but Wen Ruyi's bright appearance every time he turned around and handed him food made him never get tired of looking at it.
After eating and drinking, I have to go back to the place where I am bound, Wen Ruyi is a little emotional, but when she enters the house, she still politely thanks Mu Zirong for bringing her to eat, after all, the life under the fence is still preferential.
Just one step before Wen Ruyi entered the house, Mu Zirong suddenly stopped her, "Miss Wen, you...... What do you think of this place? Mu Zirong asked euphemistically, looking at her with burning eyes.
"That's good." Wen Ruyi subconsciously agreed, there are people to eat, drink and serve here, and the overall is not bad, but she is a little bored and has no freedom at all.
Hearing Wen Ruyi's answer, Mu Zirong was overjoyed, and then asked, "That...... Would you like to stay here? I'll marry you, don't worry, everything is not a problem. It was the first time he said such a thing, which he did not promise easily, and he was eager and excited.
"Huh? However, I have already married Chu Hongze, and I am ...... now It's Princess Rui, and besides, I've already said that it's impossible for me to marry you, I'm sorry! Wen Ruyi never imagined that going out for a meal would develop like this, could it be that his behavior just now was too out of line? What misunderstanding did Mu Zirong have?
"It's okay, Miss Wen, I won't mind these things, and if you trust me, I'll take care of everything." Mu Zirong looked at Wen Ruyi's eyes, he really didn't care, what obstacles were there to those false etiquette and unfinished weddings, but Wen Ruyi was a person, and in the end, he could be his own.
"Mu Zirong, you ...... Did you misunderstand something? Wen Ruyi has been recalling in her mind quickly, where did she make Mu Zi dissolve, she will definitely explain clearly, she really has no feelings for him.
"No, Miss Wen, I like you, I want to marry you as a concubine, I won't mind the rest, I haven't misunderstood anything, as long as you want, I can give you all the best things." Mu Zirong has never been so excited, so longing for a person.
"But, I ......" Wen Ruyi was really shocked, which one of Mu Zirong's Xuan was wrong, why was he so obsessed with her, didn't this ancient person pay much attention to reputation, how could he ......
