Chapter 445: Resentment
There is no sadness of crying, nor anger of bad words, carefree and no crying, no quarrel, gentle and calm attitude, which makes Meng Xilan panicked.
Why is she?
Meng Xilan's expression was slightly stunned, her eyes were silent, and she was thoughtful.
Did she already hate her in her heart, that's why she would hide herself like this? Just like she was back then...... Coming with hatred, full of murderous intentions. Such thoughts flashed through her mind, and then she denied herself.
No, her carefree will not be like this, she has the softest heart in the world, and even the ants under her feet can't bear to hurt her.
Meng Xilan was silent for a while, pulled her shoulder, looked at her eagerly, and said, "Don't worry, you can go...... The queen mother sent someone to take you out of the palace and send you to a quiet place. ”
She still refuses to give up in her heart, even if it is a decision, it doesn't matter, as long as she can save her.
Worry-free was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then smiled slightly bitterly: "Where is the queen mother going to send me?" Once the Turks lead their troops north, the capital is in danger, and no matter where the sons are, they are not the same as the exiles. This is Erchen's home, if the home is gone, where can Erchen go alone? ”
Meng Xilan looked at her stunned, shook her head and said, "It's okay to go anywhere, as long as you don't go to kiss." As she spoke, she clenched her hands to her chest, and the expression on her face became very painful: "I can't push you into the fire pit with my own hands, I can't ruin your life with my own hands." ”
She was only sixteen years old and still a child.
A thin layer of water shone in carefree eyes.
She held back her tears and didn't let them fall.
"Queen Mother, the sons are not afraid, the sons have nothing to fear...... Being able to marry Tudu in the name of a royal princess is the honor of the son. Erchen's life experience once made the queen mother embarrassed and entangled. The queen mother has never given up worry-free, and worry-free has never learned what giving up is! Tu Du has the elite of iron cavalry, the power is leaning towards one side, and the power is huge, and making enemies with people like him is a disaster for Beiyan and a nightmare for the people. Carefree is not a child, and I know very well what it is. ”
Just now in the Heart Cultivation Palace, what the father said sounded very selfish, but it was not unreasonable.
Her father asked her if there were people and things she really wanted to protect.
She nodded heavily.
Father smiled with emotion: "Then you must guard it with your heart, and sometimes even at all costs." Because sometimes the more cherished things are, the easier it is to lose, and the more regretful a person is, the more painful it is. ”
Carefree doesn't want to have regrets for yourself, and you don't want anyone to be hurt because of your cowardice.
My father was right, this catastrophe could not be avoided. And she has nowhere to hide.
After the matter of harmony was decided, all the ministers breathed a sigh of relief. Only the crown prince strongly opposed, and he contradicted his father for the first time in the court.
This is something that has never happened before.
The crown prince confronted his father, made disrespectful remarks, and was punished on the spot, Meng Zhenglu stood up to intercede for the prince, and was reprimanded by the emperor together.
Changsheng was beaten for a full twenty boards, and he was beaten on the spot.
When Meng Xilan heard this, her eyes sank, she went to the prince's bedroom, and looked at Changsheng lying on the bed, and the clothes that the eunuchs changed for him were clearly stained with blood.
Meng Xilan frowned slightly, followed to Changsheng's bedside, and said softly, "Changsheng, does it still hurt?" ”
Since he was a child, he has never been punished so severely by his father.
Changsheng lay on the bed, opened his eyes, turned his head to look at his mother on the side, and immediately turned over excitedly, not caring about the injuries on his body.
"Mother, save my sister......" His expression was flustered, and there was a hint of crying in his tone.
Meng Xilan's eyes were slightly gloomy, and she shook her head and said, "Changsheng, the matter of harmony has been decided, and you have no jokes." ”
Changsheng looked at the queen mother with a confused expression, as if he couldn't believe that these words came out of her mouth.
"Mother, do you want your sister to marry? Marry that Tudu, that devil? ”
Meng Xilan lowered her eyes slightly, and couldn't bear to meet his gaze.
"It's a decision you made on your own!"
Changsheng sneered suddenly: "No, you forced her!" It's all your fault! ”
Changsheng was extremely angry, and his young face became a little hideous.
"My sister is mine, and no one can snatch her!"
In a moment of excitement, he said the last thing he should have said.
Meng Xilan's expression instantly turned violent and interrupted him coldly: "Worry-free is not yours!" Your feelings for her are wrong from beginning to end. ”
Of course he will be sad, angry, anxious, tangled. However, it is not necessarily a bad thing for him.
In his heart, this life will be heartbroken because of the loss of worry-free. But the pain will slowly become beautiful as the years accumulate.
Carefree is his cousin, and they are
Changsheng was stunned when he heard this, and his eyes dodged slightly.
Meng Xilan closed her eyes for a moment, and soon opened them again, her eyes returning to calm: "I have known your affection for Wuwu for a long time, I didn't break this matter, and let Wuwu stay by your side, which is my most selfish preference for you." ”
"You think I don't know anything? I know all the things in this palace, big and small. ”
Hearing this, Changsheng lowered his head slightly.
He did make a mistake, but he could swear that he would never mess with his sister in his life.
He cared so much about her, he just wanted her to be happy and safe.
"Queen Mother, the son is wrong, please don't implicate my sister, she has been ...... well"
Meng Xilan saw tears in his eyes, and his tone immediately became stern: "Don't cry!" No worries have ever been afraid, why should you be afraid? Changsheng, you are the prince, you can't be so cowardly! ”
"It's my father who is the one who is the mother!" Changsheng was emotional and replied.
Meng Xilan's eyebrows moved, and she raised her hand to give him a slap, she hit him with strength, so it didn't hurt.
Growing so big, it's the first time I've been slapped by my mother. So, instead of feeling pain, he felt ashamed.
"Don't talk about your father like that, he just knows how to make trade-offs!"
Meng Xilan looked at him with burning eyes: "Without him, there would be no you, he is the emperor and your father." In the future, I will not allow you to disobey him, you are his son, and you cannot put a cold arrow in his back. ”
As long as there are people, there will be trouble. Even if it is a close person, even between father and son, husband and wife, the slightest carelessness will cause a rift. She didn't want their father and son to drift apart, they were not enemies, they were father and son, the closest father and son.
Changsheng took a deep breath, stopped talking, and responded to the queen's reproach with silence, what else could he say?
Meng Xilan stabilized her mind, reached out and patted him on the shoulder: "The saddest person now is worry-free, she didn't cry out in pain, are we still qualified to say anything?" Immortality, don't be sad, don't be sad, because we are not qualified. ”
Hearing this, Changsheng's whole person shook slightly, and his heart felt as if someone had torn it apart, blood flowed sideways, and the pain continued.
…
The matter of harmony has been decided. But there should be no less rules, Tu Du didn't want to wait until after March, he just wanted to take people back immediately.
Wu Mingshi saw that he was so anxious, so he had to come forward to persuade him: "Great Khan, the princess is married, the rules are cumbersome, if you do it hastily, it will damage the royal face, not to mention, the face of the Great Khan will be dull." ”
Tu Du frowned: "You Central Plains people are trouble!" ”
Wu Mingshi nodded with a smile: "That's right." However, the greater the battle of the Great Khan and the princess's marriage, it means that the Northern Yan attaches more importance to the Great Khan and the Sixteen Turkic Tribes. After all, the princess and her relatives are married, not married! ”
Tu Du smiled nonchalantly when he heard this: "She's just a bargaining pawn." No matter how beautiful it is, it's not the same to be taken advantage of. ”
Seeing that he knew so well in his heart, Wu Mingshi sighed lightly and said, "What the Great Khan said is that the princess is also a poor person. ”
Tu Du raised one eyebrow: "Are you not worth it for her?" ”
Wu Mingshi knelt on his knees and shook his head seriously: "I don't dare to do it, I just feel sad for the princess, the princess's life is bumpy, and the relatives I have trusted and relied on for many years are just a ruthless and cold person." ”
Tu Du was silent when he heard this. The human heart is sinister, cold and warm, and in the end it is just a hypocritical perfunctory!
"It's okay to be luxurious, she is the trophy of my visit to Beijing this time, the more dazzling the better."
Tu Du's eyes suddenly swept over a pampered face, she was indeed very beautiful, and she was the most suitable trophy to be shown off!
…
The Ministry of Internal Affairs used the fastest time to make the princess's wedding dress, five complicated gorgeous wedding dresses, with a full ten taels of gold and silver thread on them, as well as small gems inlaid with countless pearls.
Such a luxurious and exquisite wedding dress, even the people in the palace couldn't help but be shocked when they saw it.
Worry-free saw it, but just smiled calmly.
A wedding dress that can only be worn once in a lifetime is such a waste of time.
The mother has been frugal for many years, but this time it is a change from the norm.
She hated to stuff all the most precious things in the world into her.
Wu Wu originally wanted to refuse to come, but after thinking about it, if he didn't want it, the queen mother's heart would be even more uncomfortable. She was about to leave here and follow Tu Du to a strange place thousands of miles away. Of course, she feels even more unfamiliar with her future husband, and the road ahead is long, and her heart is even more at a loss.
Three days later, Tu Du was about to take her away, and his father could not convince him, let alone provoke him again.
The matter has come to this, and harmony is the right thing. Otherwise, her sacrifice would have been in vain.
Thinking of this, Wu Wu turned his eyes to look at the wedding dress that had been carefully hung, and from a distance, the golden phoenix on it soared out of the clouds, as if it was about to soar into the sky. It's a pity that it's just a pattern for decoration, and it's inseparable from the garment, let alone the palace.
It's all the same as her.
She smiled bitterly and bent her lips, shook her head slightly, and let out a long sigh.
Seeing this, Mama Xing's eyebrows moved, and she stepped forward to reassure: "Your Royal Highness Princess, the bride to be married shouldn't sigh, it's unlucky." ”
Worry-free turned his eyes to look at her, and asked Youyou, "Then what should I do?" Mama, if you can divinate the will of heaven, please wait for me and ask God, can I cross this hurdle? ”
