Chapter Seventy-Eight: A Parent's Order
"I'll see if you're angry, King Pingnan came yesterday? You promised to marry him?! ”
Yesterday, Mrs. Bai and Bai Xiuzi talked about Wanxiang, and he immediately jumped to his feet, coaxed his mother to go back to the imperial city, and sneaked away by himself halfway, just to run back to see Wanxiang.
"The general is coming...... That's what you ask? ”
Seeing that her face was pale and seemed to be getting worse and worse, Bai Xiuzi was never worried: "How is your injury?" ”
"No problem."
"What did my mother tell you? Did it make you angry? ”
Wanxiang smiled at him: "I didn't say anything, I just talked about some common things." ”
"Did it hit you?"
"What's not to collide with? The general was overwhelmed. ”
"That'...... Are you really going to marry King Pingnan? ”
Wanxiang looked into his eyes and didn't speak for a long time, and finally put down the scroll in his hand, went to the box on the side and took two jade pendants with red concentric knots and handed them to Bai Xiuzi's hand.
Bai Xiuzi held the jade pendant in the palm of his hand, looked at it for a long time before raising his eyes and asking, "What do you mean by this?" ”
"I've heard it all." Wanxiang leaned on the mat seriously: "The old lady has ordered a family affair for the general, which is a good thing." The general will go back and get married, and if he goes on the expedition in the future, there will be someone to honor the old lady for the general. These two pendants can be regarded as a little bit of incense. ”
"What kind of mess?" Saying that, Bai Xiuzi shoved the jade pendant towards the hand of the incense: "I don't want it." ”
“……”
"I know that my mother speaks badly, if you are angry, you can scold me, you can beat me, you just can't tease me like this."
Bai Xiuzi was so angry that he puffed out his mouth like a child, staring at Wanxiang for a long time without saying anything, unlike the deep and complex in Xiao Huaijin's eyes, his eyes were even cleaner and clearer.
Wanxiang looked at him like she was looking at her brother: "General, since ancient times, marriage has been the order of the parents, and the matchmaker ......"
"With the sentence 'the life of the parents, the words of the matchmaker', how many pairs of mandarin ducks are separated by sticks? I thought that you would not have such thoughts if you were not bound by the world. ”
Saying that, his expression gradually dimmed, and he lowered his head and smiled: "Yes, you are indeed not bound by the world, but you are facing me." If you were facing Xiao Huaijin, you wouldn't have such thoughts, would you? ”
His words made Wanxiang not know how to answer, and Wanxiang looked down at the concentric knot in her hand and felt a little lonely. But this loneliness is not because of Bai Xiuzi, but because of Xiao Huaijin.
I still don't know how to face my feelings for Xiao Huaijin, and after so much time, I still can't find a clue.
If King Yi wants to use his brother to turn himself against Xiao Huaijin, then why doesn't his brother come to him these days?
Holding the jade pendant, he couldn't stop coughing twice, and hurriedly took a sip of tea and pressed it down.
Put down the teacup and turned around to pick up Bai Xiuzi's hand, and stuffed the jade pendant into his hand again: "The general should keep it, if you really don't like Miss Yue, just wait to meet someone in the future."
Now that the general understands Wanxiang's thoughts at this moment, Wanxiang will no longer hide it. I'm very fortunate to be able to meet the best among people like the general, but Wanxiang has followed the prince since she was a child, and the prince lives alone in her heart.
No matter whether he is an enemy or a friend with the prince in the future, whether he is far or near, what kind of relationship he has or what kind of grudge he has, Wanxiang only has the prince in his heart. Even if there is no name and no division, even if the future is unknown. ”
She finished her words in one go, and every word fell like a stone on Bai Xiuzi's heart.
Love is like wine, Wanxiang and Bai Xiuzi are both drunk, and they are the same crazy, so they often can't figure out the direction.
In the past few days when she was not in the palace, Wanxiang also wanted to try to be sober, but the moment she saw Xiao Huaijin yesterday, her mind was not sober again.
Knowing Wanxiang's thoughts, Bai Xiuzi couldn't say anything anymore, and stood on the tile with a sad expression, holding the jade pendant given by Wanxiang tightly in his hand: "I know, in fact, if you don't say it, I know it." ”
Wanxiang nodded: "I heard that the daughter of the Yue family has a mellow temperament and a pure heart, and Bo Gu Tongjin is generally very virtuous. The general listened to the old lady and married her home, and she would be able to set up a peaceful backyard for the general. ”
Bai Xiuzi hung his head and thought for a long time, and finally said a lot of words to Wanxiang attentively: "Even if you don't marry me, I don't want to marry a woman who has never met and sounds boring."
I can't control who is in your heart, and you naturally can't control who is in my heart. I'll go back to the imperial city first, and I'll keep this jade pendant first.
The eldest husband can afford to take it and put it down, if you feel troubled, I won't come to entangle. In the future, if Xiao Huaijin dares to defeat you, I will break his legs for you! ”
This desperate appearance really made Wanxiang laugh.
Bai Xiuzi sighed lightly: "Then I'll go." You take medicine and heal your injuries. ”
Akika nodded, ready to watch him leave.
"Take care of yourself." When he turned around, he instructed, "Take care of yourself." ”
After telling him, Bai Xiuzi stepped on the tree trunk on the side and jumped down. Remembering that her mother had a heart attack when she was arguing with her yesterday, Bai Xiuzi still had to rush back to the imperial city as soon as possible.
Wanxiang looked at his back, and there seemed to be nothing more she could do for him than gratitude.
"General Bai is really a loving and righteous person." Aunt Hong didn't know when she came over, put the medicine bowl on the corner of the table, and looked down with Wanxiang and let out such an exclamation.
Wanxiang pulled the thin quilt corner: "In the end, it is the age of blood and energy." ”
"At his age, there should be a few children." Aunt Hong sighed: "However, the perennial war has delayed the marriage. The Bai family guarded the North Semake Shroud and was loyal, in exchange for this peaceful and prosperous world.
There are only a few children left, and they are not doing well. Look at his lonely appearance, it's strange to look pitiful. ”
Wanxiang picked up the medicine bowl and blew it twice, staring at the bitter decoction medicine inside, and mocking Aunt Hong: "Why was that aunt so disrespectful to Mrs. Ying Guo last year?" ”
The widow looked disdainful, and at first glance she was looking for trouble. How? As soon as you see the girl, your words are sour, and when you speak, you almost point at the tip of people's noses and scold with guns and sticks. I'm angry when I talk about it. ”
Aunt Hong was probably really angry, sitting on the side and drinking whatever was in the teacup at the corner of the table, but Wanxiang didn't stop it: "Eh......"
Just watched Aunt Hong swallow a mouthful and smash it, smash it, and take a closer look at the contents of the cup: "What does it smell?" ”
Looking at Aunt Hong's blackened lips, Wanxiang cautiously replied: "If the pen wash is accidentally broken, I will use a teacup to ...... first."
Hearing this, Aunt Hong hurriedly put down the cup in her hand, stretched out her tongue and hurriedly ran out to find water to rinse her mouth, leaving Wanxiang sitting on the couch holding the medicine bowl and smirking.
The wind blew in and coughed twice, the wind in this autumn day is getting cooler and cooler, and I still don't see good. Raising her hand to close the window, Wanka continued to write the words that she had just not finished.
I hope that this stroke can erase my memory of him, but this memory can't be escaped in the end, not long after Bai Xiuzi left, someone came up and said to Wanxiang: "Girl, there is a person named Yunjiao who wants to see you, not a vegetarian." ”
"Cloud Tribulation?" Cloud calamity, away from the cloud flag.
In the end, Wanxiang guessed that her brother should be looking for her to tell her how to kill Xiao Huaijin.
"Bring him up."
Putting down the pen, Wanxiang silently wanted to deal with her brother in her heart. I don't want to do anything to Xiao Huaijin yet.
But Wanxiang's expected answer Wanxiang didn't have a chance to speak, and Liyunqi didn't ask those questions.
When he saw Wanxiang, he first muttered: "It's good that Wan'er is fine." ”
"What are you going to do?" After asking, Wanxiang took a sip of tea.
"You're right."
"What?" Wanxiang raised her eyes with the cup and looked at Liyun Qi, only to realize that something was wrong with his arm: "Injured?" ”
"It doesn't matter." Liyun Qi looked into her eyes and said, "Xiao Huaijin's matter, you are right. The person who led the troops into the Ten Thousand Poison Cave was not Xiao Huaijin. ”
Akika chuckled, "Oh? It's not him again? I believed all the righteous words that my brother said at the time, and now he is telling me that it is not him? ”
Liyunqi laughed miserably: "You should go to see Xiao Huaijin, but I see that you are also injured......"
"You are the one who speaks of the east, and you are the one who speaks of the west. Am I stupid enough to let my brother lead me by the nose with a few words? Juanxiang put down her cup and interrupted Liyun Qi.
