Chapter 386
In fact, even he himself was stunned that he was now more and more unable to calm down. It was as if the self-control he had always been proud of had been exhausted in Xiao Chu's long waiting.
"Xiao Chu is not attentive, it seems that I really need to practice more." Xiao Qinglang suppressed the throbbing in his eyes, and slowly left Xu Chu's lips and teeth, but his eyes were still lingering on the red lips and white teeth.
The two of them were very close to each other at this time, their breaths were intertwined, and their figures were constantly overlapping on the walls of the carriage, changing slightly with the ups and downs of the carriage.
Xu Chu has always known that the man in front of him is elegant and noble, even if he has no long things, he can make people unforgettable. I know more that he has always had a deep and calm temperament.
It was only after the heart-to-heart exchange that she suddenly discovered that this person was so knowledgeable and interesting in her bones. Even if it's just a clichΓ© love sentence, she can always say a thousand kinds of tenderness, so that she still can't refuse even if she knows that the words are the same.
It seems that at this time, just looking at his deep eyes and the sound that seems to be sighing, it is enough to make Xu Chu's heart tremble and he can't help himself.
The night was lonely, and the carriage was moving. The interior of the car is not a small space, and the temperature is constantly rising, ambiguous and sweet.
However, Xiao Qinglang also knew that it was suitable, he carefully helped Xu Chu pick up the broken hair around his ears, and sorted out some messy clothes for her. After a long time, he sighed against her forehead and said, "I have already asked the emperor for marriage, if there is no chachi, it is estimated that the eunuch who will deliver the decree will already be waiting in your and my house."
As he spoke, his eyes narrowed slightly. Xindao also lost him one step earlier, otherwise according to the queen mother's temperament and temper, as long as she was suspicious of Xiao Chu, she would inevitably interfere in the matter of marriage.
When he saw the Queen Mother today, at the beginning, he really didn't think much about it. However, when the Queen Mother mentioned Jinling, the look in her eyes was very jealous. Although that kind of jealousy is fleeting, it is enough for Xiao Qinglang to capture.
Xiao Qinglang knew that the jealousy might only come from the Sun family, or from Sun Ruanruan, whose whereabouts were unknown. However, the current situation is that Xiao Chu is very likely to be inextricably linked with the Sun family or the British Duchess Sun Ruanruan
And just this possibility is enough to make him anxious. It is precisely because of this that he suddenly went to ask the emperor for the holy decree of marriage overnight
For him, the so-called auspicious time for marriage can't withstand that little bit of risk. On Xu Chu's marriage, he never dared to take risks, even if it was just possible.
Xu Chu met his focused and smiling eyes, and next to her ears was talking about her marriage to him affectionately and calmly, which made her heart gradually ripple, but there was no tangle and apprehension that she once had.
Perhaps, as the two of them came along the way, her trust and love for him became deeper and deeper. So that when she never found out, that friendship was enough to support her to face the future, even if it was a parting of ways.
No matter what the road ahead holds, she will no longer be afraid, nor will she be restrained.
"Could it be that you just talked to the emperor alone about the marriage?" Xu Chu was full of suspicion and asked softly.
It's no wonder that she was surprised, but she never thought that Xiao Qinglang, the dignified King of Jing'an, a legendary person in the eyes of the people, would be so solemn for a marriage decree.
Xiao Qinglang raised his eyebrows and said, "Why not?" After a pause, he said with a happy expression, "Since Xiao Chu has already promised me, I naturally need to hurry up and save myself from having more twists and turns in the future." As for the side, it is not as important as this. β
The warmth in the carriage was particularly lingering, but his answer made Xu Chu stunned, and it was really like this.
Thinking about the King Jing'an she heard of at the beginning, he acted fairly, was selfless, cold-blooded and cold-hearted, and would not care about the face and friendship of others for the sake of the case. It is precisely in this way that when she first met, she felt that this person's eyes were sharp, and people did not dare to look directly.
And now, just over a year later, how can he become more and more unserious?
Not to mention the "abruptness" from time to time, the level of this love talk is getting higher and higher. As a result, my heart, which has always been guarded, is beating more and more.
Just when Xu Chu was still immersed in astonishment, the carriage suddenly stopped.
"Lord Wang, it's time to Xu's mansion."
Xu Chu coughed lightly, forced himself to gather his mind, and pretended to be calm, "Then I'll go back first."
"Hmm." Xiao Qinglang smiled at the corner of his mouth, and replied in a deep voice, just when Xu Chu jumped out of the car, he suddenly seemed to be reminding him and said, "I won't accompany you back to the mansion today, after all, there is still a copy of the marriage decree to be sent to the palace, and I need to go to the decree in person." β
I don't know if it's Xu Chu's illusion, she always feels that Xiao Qinglang is in a very good mood now, and even deliberately bites the word "marriage" quite heavily.
She looked back in confusion, and saw how bright the starry eyes were under the clothes that had been lifted from the inside, and how bright the starry eyes were against the background of the horse's head lamp.
Xu Chu felt that he was probably going to fold on Xiao Qinglang in his life, not to mention how he was impressed by his trial methods on weekdays, and the skin that could make it difficult for him to hold himself with or without laughing. Even now, just a look at it, almost intoxicated me, and even slowed down.
Later, until she entered the mansion and received the sudden marriage decree, she was still a little stunned. So much so that she didn't have the heart to reward the eunuch who came to pass the word.
Fortunately, although the eunuch looked a little uneasy, he didn't dare to say anything dissatisfied when he thought of Xu Chujin's identity as before.
However, Xu Chu didn't have the heart to give favors, which didn't mean that Xiao Qinglang wouldn't consider it for her. Just as the eunuch went out, he saw Wei Guang, who had been following King Jing'an all day, wandering in front of the Xu Mansion.
Wei Guang, although he is only the chief of the guard next to Xiao Qinglang, but when it comes to official positions, his weight among the generals is not light.
Immediately, the eunuch didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "The slave has seen General Wei." β
Wei Guang bowed his head, glanced at the eunuch's expression, and said in his heart that his own prince was really like a god, and he didn't get a reward for looking at the appearance of this eunuch.
Thinking of this, he glanced at the tightly closed gate of the Xu Mansion again, and secretly wondered how this Xiao Chu could be so inconsiderate today. In the past, he looked at people who knew the world, but his own prince had always ignored these mundane things, but now he was more worried than his guards.
"General Wei, but what does the prince command?" Seeing Wei Guang pondering, the eunuch didn't dare to urge him, so he could only continue to ask with kind words.
Wei Guang came back to his senses and said, "The prince is very happy to give the marriage today, so he specially asked me to send a happy gift to my father-in-law." β
As he spoke, he took out a purse full of broken silver from his sleeve pocket and threw it over, "I will treat it as a wine for my father-in-law and a few brothers who sent the decree." β
The eunuch hurriedly caught the purse, pinched it slightly, and immediately his face was full of smiles.
"Let the prince break the bank, and the slave will thank the prince first."
It wasn't until Wei Guang was seen away that the eunuch was amazed, and he glanced at the gate of Xu's mansion again, and said in his heart that he didn't disrespect Lord Xu just now, otherwise he might have provoked the displeasure of King Jing'an.
He has been immersed in the harem for many years, and it's not that he can't figure it out like this. Lord Xu didn't give a reward, but the prince sent a personal guard to send it, thinking that there were only two possibilities.
Either the prince guessed that under the surprise of Lord Xu, he would not remember to reward himself. Either the prince deliberately wanted to raise the weight of Lord Xu in front of him and the imperial guards, after all, no matter how famous Lord Xu is now, he is just a small temple, even if he is a little special, that life experience is really not a person who can be on the stage.
But no matter what the reason, it always proves that the prince is very attentive to Lord Xu.
If you talk about the identity of a Dali Temple, it is not enough for him to be cautious and respectful. The identity of a princess who makes King Jing'an fall in love is enough to deter him from daring to make a mistake. After all, he is different from others, if others offend King Jing'an, at most they will stay away from the capital, and he, the eunuch who has gone to the roots, has nowhere else to make a living except the palace.
Thinking about it like this, he didn't dare to despise Xu Chu even more. Even when talking about Lord Xu with the Praetorian Guards who were traveling with him, he also brought a lot of respect, and even beautified Xu Chu's weight and future in the court.
Most of the Praetorian Guards have some power in their families, if they were disdainful of Xu Chu as an official by relying on their family background, then at this moment, they all have plans in their hearts.
Regardless of what kind of ability this miraculous Lord Xu has who is rumored to be outside, or just relying on her beauty to climb the big tree of King Jing'an to gain a foothold in the court, at least now it seems that the emperor is very satisfied with her. Otherwise, how could he easily give it to King Jing'an in marriage?
I didn't think about it before, and I didn't realize it, but now I want to come to Lord Xu, isn't there a secret permission from the emperor? Otherwise, how could she get the mansion given by the emperor with a small Dali Temple, and she could also be adjacent to the Jing'an Palace!
After thinking about it like this, several of the Praetorian Guards present had a plan in their hearts.
Of course, if these thoughts of theirs reached the ears of Wei Guang and other guards, they were afraid that they would have to cause a lot of emotion. His own prince really had good means, and with such an unwitting hint, he elevated Xu Chu, a duckweed who had no foundation and no backing in the capital, to a position that was admired by the people and feared by the officials. Even if she is nothing to a real wealthy family, those people will not dare to think about her because of the importance that the emperor and King Jing'an attach to her.
Think about it, it's really not easy for your own prince, others don't say it's a prince, a king, a prince, or a rich son with a little foundation, how can he take such a lot of trouble to marry a wife and take a concubine. partial, his own prince fell into it, and he was afraid that he would not be thoughtful enough.
As long as Wei Guang thought that when he left the mansion, the prince was holding the holy decree of marriage and laughing uncontrollably, and even laughed loudly in the lonely courtyard without any image, he felt a little frightened.
Sure enough, the word love is unfathomable.
