Chapter 11: Retreat as Advance
"I'd rather be your concubine than be the wife of someone you don't like." Song Xi said with burning eyes.
“…… Whatever you want. If you regret it one day, you can leave at any time, and if you feel shameless, you can slander me. Pan Yueqing turned his head to look at Song Xi, his hand was already on the door, and he was about to push the door out, "But what you want, I can't give it to you." ”
Song Xi's heart ached, and when he looked at Pan Yueqing, his eyes suddenly turned red: "Just because I'm a concubine?" Just because Tong Shanshan was your wife first? ”
Sometimes, Pan Yueqing doesn't understand the woman's thoughts, the meaning of her words is very similar to Shan'er's words, but this is not true: "It's not a matter of concubines and wives, nor is it a matter of identity." Ziwei, I am a man with emotions and choices, but as long as I am happy with you, I will propose to you myself, and even deal with things before the new order is issued. In the same way, if I don't like Shan'er, I won't jump up and down with her and cause trouble all day long. ”
Song Xi's heart cooled down a little bit, as if someone had forced a handful of ice into her heart, and the tulle she was wearing couldn't resist the cold wind at all.
She looked at Pan Yueqing quietly, watched him seriously refute his words, and watched his eyebrows soften, and when she mentioned Tong Shanshan, the coldness in her eyes was dyed with subtle warmth.
Pan Yueqing doesn't like to laugh, he is naturally cold-faced, and when he is calm and serious, he gives people a feeling of bad contact, but he is not such a person in nature, he is soft, and he will be unconsciously gentle around people close to him, but there are not many people close to him, so there are not many people who are aware of this.
But Song Xi is fortunate that her father is one of Pan Yueqing's countless close people.
"Green sheep." Song Xi approached Pan Yueqing and closed the door opened by Pan Yueqing again, those tide-like sadness had been suppressed, and only coldness remained, "My father is a Taifu, and he is a first-class official, and he has taught several prime ministers, princes, and emperors, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is famous all over the world...... Now he is full of gray hair and is approaching old age. I am his only daughter, and when His Majesty ascended the throne, my father sent me to the side of the Captain in order to protect His Majesty, and I was considered a hostage. He is ashamed of me, and too many people are ashamed of me. Qingyang, if the news of you snubbing me tonight spreads, the people of the world will also count the Song family behind their backs, right? Even the old things of the past will affect my father and even ...... Your Majesty. You say, don't you? ”
Pan Yueqing paused slightly, with coldness in his eyes: "Are you threatening me?" ”
"Nope." Song Xi came back to his senses, the alarm bell sounded in his heart, Pan Yueqing didn't like the coercion of others, asking for a marriage was coercion, and if he continued to be tough, he would be pushed farther and farther, "I want you to pity me." My father has such a good reputation, because of me, I can't raise my head, my Song family has many talents, because of me, my sisters in the future will be ridiculed when they get married...... Count me begging you, you see, my father helped you many times back then, and I was sincere to you, don't let me be so embarrassed. ”
Song Xi knew that Pan Yueqing would not refuse, he was very soft-hearted, and he couldn't refuse if he proposed his father. When it comes to showing weakness, no one is more sophisticated than Song Xi.
"I don't ask you to be sincere, as long as you make me not so ugly." Song Xi smiled reluctantly, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said, "I was wrong, I thought you were also happy with me, I thought you married Tong Shanshan just because of the holy decree, I thought you didn't resist the decree because you had me in your heart...... I was wrong......"
Pan Yueqing didn't see Song Xi's thoughts, but what she said was right, her situation was indeed not optimistic because of the concubine, and this matter did affect the Taifu and His Majesty, since the Queen Mother had already intervened in the marriage, she would naturally continue to interfere.
He glanced at the chaise longue and compromised: "I'll sleep on the couch, you can go to sleep too, it's late." ”
"Qingyang, I'm sorry. If you and Tong Shanshan are really in love, then wouldn't I ......" Song Xi held the soft quilt and handed it to Pan Yueqing, "And today, you don't have to care...... I already see what you mean. I'll figure it out myself. ”
Pan Yueqing glanced at her, it was difficult to say whether she was telling the truth or a roundabout policy, but it was not a big deal when she thought about it: "If you want to get out, I won't stop you, you need my cooperation, just tell me." ”
Song Xi smiled and nodded slightly, but after turning around, his nails were ripped into his palms. She was still rejoicing in marrying him this morning, and her heart was dead tonight...... No, it's not time to give up yet. Men, now fresh, I feel that Tong Shanshan's personality is unique, there may not be one in a hundred women, but after a long time, he will find that Tong Shanshan will only cause trouble, and there is no Yue family who can help him, Tong Jiabing has changed his surname many years ago, and now he is called Qin Junwei, one day, Tong Shanshan will have nothing.
At that time, Pan Yueqing will find that Tong Shanshan's character is, to put it bluntly, arrogant and unreasonable, and there is no one in his eyes. It's not suitable to be a wife at all, it's not what he likes at all.
