Volume 2: Cinnabar in the Heart Chapter 232 Entering the Second King's Mansion by Mistake 1
The two of them waited quietly, he hugged her, listening to the sound of snow falling outside, another year passed. Hugging each other, even if you don't say anything, even if you don't do anything, it's also excellent.
But she did go back eventually.
The time spent together is always so short.
She said, "How long will it be before I see you again in this separation?" ”
"After the New Year." He smiled.
She nodded, and he took her hand and walked out of the room.
The snow outside has accumulated a thick layer, and it looks white at a glance. Covered with snow, she is dressed in plain clothes, and it is very easy to connect with the snow, which makes people lose their eyes.
Looking at the figure that disappeared into the snow, he turned his head and stared at the chess pieces on the chessboard with slightly gloomy eyes. Fight to the death, fight to the death, where is the way out?
After thinking about it, he took out the concentric knot in his arms again, let out a long breath, and stood with his hands in his hands.
When he went back, Shangguan Jingyu was still thinking, why did he always feel that something was wrong today? As soon as the carriage stopped, he heard Fu Hui say, "Miss, it's the second prince." ”
Her eyelashes lifted slightly, and she came back to her senses, lifted the curtain and stepped out of the carriage.
An exquisite carriage stopped in front of the Prime Minister's House.
The jewel on the roof of the car was covered by heavy snow, but it was still difficult to hide the glimmer of light. The satin on the car surface is embroidered by the best embroiderers, and it is extraordinary at first glance.
Xiao Dongming stood at the door of the mansion, looking at her with a smile.
Fu Hui held up the umbrella and walked up the steps with Shangguan Jingyu in her arms.
Seeing this, Xiao Dongming stepped forward and held her hand, "The road is slippery in the snow, how can you go out?" ”
Shangguan Jingyu withdrew his hand at the right time and stood at the door of the mansion. Fleur took the umbrella, but it was inconvenient to be present, so she could only retreat to a distance with the minions, and all bowed their heads to show avoidance.
"The streets are lively, just go out for a walk!" She prevaricated casually, "It's not early, how did the second prince come over?" ”
"Ming'er is Chinese New Year's Eve, and after the New Year, the mother concubine will bring up the marriage of you and me." Xiao Dongming said with a smile, "When the time comes, the holy decree will soon come to the door, and you will soon marry into the Second Prince's Mansion." ”
In front of everyone, Shangguan Jingyu naturally couldn't tear his face like last time.
"It's not easy to talk here." She looked up.
"Then find a place." Xiao Dongming said.
Shangguan Jingyu smiled reluctantly, "I don't think it's necessary, I don't seem to have anything to say with the second prince." ”
"Do you have to be so rejected?" He asked.
She didn't answer.
"If it's not convenient for you, I can go to the back door and wait for you." He took a step back, "I'll take you out for a walk." ”
Shangguan Jingyu walked inside the door without saying a word.
Xiao Dongming stood there, "Don't you want to know what my father told me?" There's about you with him. ”
When the sound fell, she was stunned. In fact, she didn't want too many people to see herself with Xiao Dongming, and she didn't like to be with Xiao Dongming.
But......
"Go and wait for me at the back door!" She hurried through the door.
Fleur caught up with her, "Miss? ”
"Fleur, don't say anything, change your clothes." Shangguan Jingyu changed into a man's outfit, she didn't want to teach people to misunderstand that she and Xiao Dongming were in love.
Since she wants to draw a clear line with Xiao Dongming, she will not give Xiao Dongming any opportunity to take advantage of. Even the slightest rumor, she didn't want to get along with her.
And Fleur - must stay by his side.
Not for anything else, but for the news of the Zhenguo General's Mansion, which stopped at him, and had not yet reached Furui's ears.
The New Year is over, and if you can be happy for a while, you will talk about it after a while.
Xiao Dongming really waited at the back door, still looking at her with a smile.
"Where are you going?" She asked.
"You're worried about my bad intentions, and I'm worried about the leak." Xiao Dongming said, "How about going to the Second Wang's Mansion?" ”
Shangguan Jingyu stepped back, "I'm not going." ”
"Then don't you want to know, what does the father want to do to the third child? Not afraid of regrets? He smiled coldly.
"I'm afraid I'll regret it even more if I go." She's not a fool, go to the Second Prince's Mansion. Are you kidding! She would never do anything that fell into the mouth of a tiger.
Unless, Xiao Dongming has more attractive conditions.
For example-
Xiao Dongming suddenly leaned down and whispered in her ear, "The prince is in turmoil, and when Beizhao learns about it, he will raise troops to invade the territory." Do you know how my father will deal with a disobedient prince? The crown prince can still be caught and killed, so the unfavored third prince, guess what? ”
Her eyelashes were raised in shock, and she stared fiercely at Xiao Dongming in front of her.
Xiao Dongming got into the car, and Shangguan Jingyu immediately tensed up and could only follow to get into the car.
It's okay to talk about state affairs, the emperor will really do as Xiao Dongming said, and do it mercilessly. At this point, Shangguan Jingyu absolutely believes that the emperor has done it.
Didn't you say it without makeup?
The emperor killed his father and seized the throne, and now the tiger poisons his son.
Emperor, what else can't be done?
Although Fleur didn't understand, she could only follow slowly.
Because of the slippery road in the snow, the carriage was a little shaky, but Shangguan Jingyu always kept a safe distance from Xiao Dongming. There is a faint fragrance burning in the car, like pear blossom sweetness, and jasmine freshness.
Shangguan Jingyu's mind was on Xiao Dongli, and he didn't bother to look at Xiao Dongming at all.
Xiao Dongming turned his head to look at her, in the dark, he couldn't see his complexion clearly, but the stubbornness and cold arrogance came faintly through the darkness. No one in the world is eager for him, and he can't look down on any of them, but such a woman in front of him who doesn't eat meat and vegetables makes him a little obsessed.
When entering the gate of the Second Prince's Mansion, Shangguan Jingyu still hesitated, but finally took a step in.
"Let's go to the flower hall!" She said.
The flower hall is spacious and bright, and Xiao Dongming is not afraid to play tricks.
Xiao Dongming didn't push, nodded and took her to the flower hall.
"Prepare tea." Xiao Dongming sat down.
Shangguan Jingyu was silent, watching the people below quickly serve tea, and just glanced at the cup. The things of the Second Prince's Mansion, she didn't dare to touch them easily, if she did, she would regret it.
You can't have the heart to hurt others, but you can't do without the heart to defend people.
"Everybody go down." Xiao Dongming took a sip of tea and glanced at Shangguan Jingyu.
Shangguan Jingyu took a deep breath, "Furui, you go out and wait." ”
Fu Hui looked at Shangguan Jingyu worriedly, and when she left, she glanced at the clenched fist in her sleeve again. There was an extreme uneasiness in my heart, and I hoped that the young lady would not use the short blade in her sleeve, otherwise, I was afraid that something big would happen.
The empty flower hall, the door of the hall was slammed shut.
"Say it." She was expressionless and didn't look at him.
Xiao Dongming put down the cup in his hand and got up, "You hate me so much?" ”
"What does the second prince think?" She half-bowed her eyebrows, surprisingly calm.
"Shangguan Jingyu, where am I not as good as him? So much so that you are so outspoken in front of your father? Are you really not afraid that your father will kill you? Xiao Dongming walked slowly towards her.
The woman in the candlelight, her complexion, delicate facial features, and her skin that can be broken by blowing a bullet all indicate that her Shaohua is blooming. At his age, he should have a young soul and a simple mind.
But what about her?
The seemingly calm eyes hide an abyss that is difficult for ordinary people to reach.
She is like a mystery, suffocating in beauty, and it also makes people hate the roots of their teeth, and they can't strangle her on the spot. Because all her emotions, all the waves, all the happiness and sorrow, will only be released for Xiao Dongli.
Even if she sat in front of Xiao Dongming, she was just a clay sculpture and wood carving, not crying or laughing, and there was no mood swing.
It's as if he were air, as if he were dead, not existing!
The feeling of being ignored alive made Xiao Dongming, who was always pampered and always surrounded by the stars, feel that there was a sense of humiliation beyond words, and what spontaneously arose was a desire to conquer.
Shangguan Jingyu slowly looked up at Xiao Dongming, who was walking in step by step, his eyes were indifferent, "The second prince is good at everything, but it's not in my heart." He has nothing, but for me, it's already the best. ”
"Why?" Xiao Dongming stood in front of her.
Thinking of Xiao Dongli, she suddenly smiled, and smiled beautifully, "Because he is in his heart, everything is good." ”
"He doesn't have anything." Xiao Dongming grabbed her arm, "And I, I can give you everything you want." Even if it's in the back position! ”
Shangguan Jingyu looked at him with extreme disdain, "Rear position? Hmph - I hate the three palaces and six courtyards the most. I'd rather follow him and eat chaff than wait forever in the Lonely Palace. Doesn't the second prince have a heart? Why don't you even understand the truth of a lifetime and a couple? ”
Xiao Dongming was stunned, and suddenly remembered Chensu.
The delicate and epiphany-like man, with picturesque eyebrows, had been gently tossing and turning beneath him.
He let go and didn't speak.
Shangguan Jingyu looked at it with a teasing voice, "If the second prince has something to say, let's just say it!" I didn't come for him to listen to the second prince's heartfelt words. ”
Xiao Dongming sneered twice, "Coming for him? Okay, then let's talk about Xiao Dongli. ”
As soon as these three words came out, Shangguan Jingyu's heart suddenly tugged, and he seemed to be a little unfamiliar and flustered. Especially Xiao Dongming's eyes, ruthless and cold, like ice thorns in winter, can pierce people's hearts.
She sat there, dressed in a man's attire, simple and clear, and her handsome appearance was better than countless men in the world.
Xiao Dongming glanced at her, "Beizhao invaded the realm, and there were only two ways for the imperial court, either to negotiate peace or to go to war. Negotiation of peace means to be friendly, but in the royal family, there are only a handful of princesses who are just the right age and can act as a major task of peace. And if you go to war - it's not that simple. ”
In Shangguan Jingyu's mind, for some reason, Xiao Dongli's chess game suddenly appeared.
Dead......
Her eyelashes rose suddenly, and she turned her head to stare at Xiao Dongming, "If there is a war, will you fight?" ”
"As a prince, how can it be my turn to go to the battlefield?" Xiao Dongming sneered, suddenly, and looked at Shangguan Jingyu with a cold face. This girl asked in a crooked way, whether she would let Xiao Dong leave the battlefield, and where did she care about his life or death.
After an epiphany, Xiao Dongming's face was naturally difficult to see.
Shangguan Jingyu still sat calmly.
But I heard Xiao Dongming say, "Just because I won't go to the battlefield doesn't mean he won't go." ”
Heart, instantly pinched.
She looked up at him, Xiao Dongming sneered, "Have you forgotten?" There is a difference between intimacy and intimacy. Your prime minister's mansion, the eldest daughter and the youngest daughter are still like this, let alone the royal family. My mother is now the deputy queen, and his mother is a slut who died at the hands of her father. ”
