44. No tears and leaning
"After all, it's a princess, and you still have to follow the rules." Empress Dowager Lou didn't say anything more, and handed over these things to her personal grandmother, and the grandmother went down to arrange it when she got the will, no matter who she picked in this matter, it was her fate.
"The queen mother worked hard, and the son retired." After not stopping for more, he left after getting her affirmative answer, feeling a little happier in his heart, and said a few more words to him today for the queen mother, and said to the prince behind him with a slight smile, "Summoning the horse into the palace." ”
"No." The prince bent over to obey the order, and it was not strange that this was a common thing in the palace.
Soon, An Youju rode a horse and came to the palace quickly, with a hearty and happy smile, not as cold as before, unmoved,
Gao Yang sat in front of the gold-inlaid Nanmu case, constantly fiddling with the beads in his hands, stroking them one by one, and from time to time he asked An Youju some questions without a word, "An Qing, the inner servants have explained to you clearly about welcoming relatives, right?" ”
"Wechen already knows." A few days ago, the waiter came to pass the decree, he carefully confirmed every link in the confirmation, and said that for an afternoon, he asked the waiter to repeat every detail several times, and the waiter said that his mouth was dry, and he sent someone to prepare tea, and the whole pot of Longjing was gone, and the waiter had to borrow urine to escape back to the palace,
For the chamberlain, it is also a torment,
The string of green and translucent beads in Gao Yang's hand is full and round, and the tentacles are warm, put it on the table, and took a sip of the new tea offered this year.
"The Queen Mother will send someone to your house tonight?" Staring at the half cup of tea on the table, he didn't dare to look at An Youjue's gaze, he knew that he would refuse but this was the rule, and no one could change it.
Even if he is an emperor, he can't disobey the will of the queen mother.
"No, you know the princess's temper, if the princess knows, Weichen..."
He was glad when His Majesty was willing to give him the Princess, not because she was a Princess, but because she was a unique Evening!
No matter what the reason for His Majesty decided to send him out of the palace, not allowing her to easily step into the palace gate again, the moment he knew, he decided to protect her in this life, and protect the country that his father and brother desperately protected.
There is another obstacle between them, this tradition that has been handed down, things that others don't care about, but he hates deeply!
He has never disobeyed the high emperor, and he has never thought of disobeying, he inherited the will of his father and brother, guarding thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, he knows that one day he will be like his father and brother, horse leather shroud, there should be no extra emotions,
But these all collapsed after seeing her, he wanted to join hands with her to see the ending of this country, wanted to share all the glory with her, he also had someone to talk to, someone to talk to!
But there's one more obstacle between them, and she cares! With her temper, she would never allow this to happen, so everything was being hidden from her, and she didn't know about it.
It is rumored that when the princess gets married, the queen mother will send a trusted palace maid to the concubine's house first to explore the situation, which is the so-called trial marriage, to see the horse's ability, and then report to the queen mother whether to marry the princess.
After marriage, the palace maid either became a concubine and stayed in the palace, or died of old age in the palace, and the ending was miserable, so few palace maids willingly went to try to marry the palace maid.
What she asks for is also what he wants to give as much as he can~
A couple for a lifetime.
His mother once told him that a man's life is very short, and that he can only love one person in his life, and if he marries only one of her after he has recognized it, the woman will marry only him. Two people are happy with each other, never give up, and always be together.
If there is such a man in the middle, it will be a scourge in the future, an obstacle between them.
"It's the rule!" Gao Yang said sharply, how could he not know the temper of his sister, for so long, her temper has been stubborn, and how can An Youju know that Wanyue is now using a hunger strike to resist marriage,
"No." An Youju stopped talking, there was no way to say any more, the emperor's order was difficult to disobey,
Seeing his hesitation, he asked, "But is there anything else?" ”
"Wechen wants to see the princess." The words are sincere, and it is not easy to refuse'~
Anyway, he wanted to see her, he wanted to ask her what she wanted, he wanted to know everything about her.
"Newlyweds shouldn't have seen each other before they got married, so go find her in the garden." In desperation, I had to let him go.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Wechen retired."
*
The door that was originally locked was pushed open, shining through the gap A ray of sunlight, blazing and dazzling, Wan Yueben, who had not seen the sun for a long time, was able to cover the strong light in front of him with his hand,
Gao Yang stood at the door with his hands in his hands, and said coldly, "Change your clothes, the colt wants to see you!" Looking at her weak appearance, he added, "Remember not to say anything!" ”
"I understand." Wan Yue sighed lightly and said weakly,
"If only you understood."
No, she didn't understand that Gao Yang was using her to marry her to An Youju, and he was indeed cultivating his own powerful power to suppress the Hulu clan, he needed to be loyal to his courtiers and support him as the emperor, not anyone from their Gao family!
Fully support his power,
But he didn't know that Wanyue was the same!
The prince led An Youju to the imperial garden and quietly retreated and left, An Youju walked along this bluestone road,
After seeing a graceful figure, she sat on the jade steps against the rockery, green water, green mountains, blue sky, and white clouds, like a natural ink painting.
The long black and shiny hair was softly tied with a silver ribbon, and the scattered strands of hair on the temples were pinned behind the ears, loose and lazy, but there was no expression on the immature face.
She stretched out her hand to play with the blue waves, round and round, and the ripples spread out from her hands, and over and over again, and the ripples spread out round and round to disturb the nearby carp, and swam away into the distance, avoiding her.
Even though it is almost late autumn, the lake water is still no temperature, clear and cold, even if the fingers feel the coldness welling up, there is no intention of stopping.
She sat there alone, quiet in her own world.
One, two, three people in this world who are responsible for me... I can never pay attention to it, if the people of the world are like this, I will abandon the people of the world,
Some people say that I am willful, but I say that this is arrogant, I will not belittle myself wantonly, and others will not give this opportunity, because I am Gao Wanyue? Evening joy is belated happiness, belated if it is lost soon, then I would rather never touch it, I still have anachronistic and oblivion things that have been forgotten by the world,
But today it is still needed, and my inability to do anything is my saddest thing......
If I can't be a good person, then I'd rather be a bad person, abandon kindness and compassion, numb everything, and live on the principle of making the best use of things, but I can't do it, I'm destined to be a lifetime full of holes and incomplete.
It's okay to look down on everything like a saint?
Thousands of years ago, were you as obsessed as I was looking at the poignant and lonely cold moon,
And I am destined to be a night blind person who walks at night, and I can't see the road ahead......
Her hand playing with the lake water became faster and faster, and the already orderly ripples disappeared, and the water splashed in all directions, and then raised the lake, splashing herself, she felt a chill, but she still had no intention of stopping.
Her thoughts became confused, irritated and angry, and there were a few more bright red fingerprints on her white arms.
An Youju curiously stretched out his hand and grabbed her wrist, trying to see carefully how he got it, "Princess." Looking at Wanyue with a little surprise,
Thinking so engrossedly, she didn't notice that someone was coming behind her, and when she saw it again, he was already holding her wrist tightly, carefully observing the red marks and bruises on her arm, and hurriedly withdrew her hand and said, "You're here." ”
Wanyue stood up, patted the dust on her body, and straightened her clothes to cover the red marks,
"Is the princess still wronged?" He took a step, the distance between the two was only half a meter, Wan Yue subconsciously took a step back,
turned around and sneered, "Ha~ If you call me a princess, you should know that there should be no one in this palace who can bully me anymore." ”
Princess?
Whether it's a princess or an eldest princess, it's okay to have any status or be favored, but you can't even make decisions about your own marriage, what's the use?
It's not as good as the people in white~chic and comfortable~
"It's me who is overthinking."
He knew that she had always been very assertive and had her own ideas, and would not tell him what she was thinking, she was buried in her heart, not as bright and cheerful as she had been at the beginning.
The news sent by the palace is all about how the princess is happy, how excited, and preparing for the marriage with joy, but now this appearance is not the same as in the news.
Doesn't she want to get married?
"We're going to get married in a few days, so what's the point of seeing me now?" Wan Yue raised her eyes and looked at him,
"No, I just want to see you." An Youju walked into her, naturally took out the handkerchief from her arms and wiped the water stains on her hands, her hands were cold and red, thinking that she had been here for a long time, and then put the handkerchief back into her arms, "The princess seems to have something on her mind." ”
"It's nothing, it's just that I'm about to get married, I'm a little anxious, I don't know if your family will like me, I'm a little pampered, I'm still very stubborn and willful, I'm afraid I can't get along with them very well,
And I don't know how to serve people, I'm afraid that I've wronged you, I'm afraid I'm not a qualified wife, I'm free and easy to yearn for freedom, I'm used to living a comfortable life, living in a deep house for a long time, I'm afraid that I will be bound to the deep house compound for the rest of my life... I'm afraid..."
Wanyue's eyes were full of tears, her words were incoherent, and she didn't know what to say.
For the unknown future, she is afraid, afraid that she will be alone and have no way to cope, and she also hopes to have a pair of shoulders as her strong backer when she wants to rely on.
"Don't be afraid, just be yourself!" He met those smoky gray eyes, and at that moment, he found that after she heard these words, her eyes were no longer so decayed and decadent, but full of hope again.
He held her in his arms and smelled the scent of her hair, and from this moment on he belonged to her, and from then on, he would be the one who lived together forever as husband and wife!
He was stunned, the person in his arms was so weak at the moment, as if he would float away with the wind as soon as he let go.
"Okay, I'm who I am!" Wan Yue smiled and hugged An Youju tightly, yes, why do you want to refuse to marry, isn't this also good, after getting married, she is still the eldest princess, and An Youju inherited his father's title, she is not only the eldest princess but also the wife of an important minister in the court, her status is still unshakable.
