Chapter Eighty-Seven: Promise Me, Okay

Murong Zhi is really happy these days, because Dad has a few days of rare free time, and he also accompanies himself to visit the market, this is also the first time that Murong Zhi eats and drinks without scruples in the Pearl Tower, but Daddy's grilled fish is really good, just listening to Daddy tell stories on the battlefield while eating fish, it's quite interesting!

However, this kind of happiness made Murong Zhi feel very unreal, everything was like a dream......

"If it's a dream, then I hope I'll never wake up." Murong Zhi lay on the chair in the garden, letting the afternoon sun lap on his little fleshy face through the gap between her fingertips.

"Miss, why did you say that the master would go to Qingshui Garden for no reason?" Rue Xiang and Yin Wei sat next to Murong Zhi and knocked on the melon seeds, and said dissatisfiedly: "Could it be that the second lady said something unnecessary......

"Okay, Ruxiang, Murong Xuan is also my father's daughter." Murong Zhi lowered her eyes and said in frustration: "Although I hate Murong Xuan very much, she is innocent after all, and I can only blame the second aunt, otherwise I still hope that I have a good sister or a good brother." ”

"Hey, it's a pity that Madame left ......early," Rue Xiang sighed.

"Rue!" When Yinmai heard this, he immediately interrupted Ruexiang's words and gave her a look, "I wonder if the pastries in the small kitchen are ready?" ”

"Huh?" Rue Xiang was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, "Then I'll go and have a look, you accompany Miss first." ”

"Okay, be careful, don't knock over the plate." Although Yinmai has not been in the house for as long as Ruxiang, I have heard Wu's mother talk about it before, and Mrs. seems to be taboo and cannot be discussed, and anyone with a discerning eye can see the attitude of the lord and the eldest lady towards the second aunt, which shows the importance of the lady in the hearts of the lord and the miss!

Seeing Rue Xiang running towards the small kitchen in a panic, Murong Zhi unconsciously hooked the corners of her mouth. Although he has no impression of his deceased mother at all, Yinmai and Rue can take care of their feelings so much, these two people, they are not mistaken!

If you don't have so many hierarchies, you might be able to become friends......

In Qingshui Garden, Murong Xuan and Murong Jin sat at the dining table, having lunch without a match, although they were father and daughter, although they were at the same table, they were always silent with each other.

What Murong Xuan couldn't figure out was, why did her father come suddenly? Still having lunch with yourself? Did something happen? I haven't been messing with Murong Zhi's slut recently......

Murong Jin, on the other hand, was embarrassed, awkward, and at a loss. It seems that since I knew about the existence of this daughter, I have never liked her.

At first, it was hatred, and I didn't want her existence, but gradually, I faded away, and even forgot, and I never knew about her, because when I thought that it was because of her existence that Xu had a foothold in the General's Mansion, the disgust in my heart arose.

Just, maybe all this, not to blame her. Now, at this dinner table, when his daughter faced herself, she was so restrained, and Murong Jin's heart was complicated. However, there are some things that may really regret this daughter for the rest of your life if you don't do it.

"Xuan'er." Murong Jin put down his chopsticks and looked at Murong Xuan with his eyebrows.

"Huh?" Originally, when Murong Xuan was still thinking about what was going on, she was suddenly named, and she couldn't help but be a little flustered, and accidentally knocked over the dish at hand, "Dad, I'm ...... This...... I'm sorry, it's my daughter who lost her temper. ”

"It's okay, just let them clean up."

"Yes." Murong Xuan turned to Xue Yan and shouted sternly, "Xue Yan, don't clean it up soon!" ”

"Yes, miss." Xue Yan hurriedly squatted down to clean up the debris.

"Snow inkstone? Right? Murong Jin asked Murong Xuan.

"Well, her name is Xue Yan, and she is her daughter's personal maid."

"Then, Xue Yan, you can stay outside after you clean up, the old man has something to say to the second lady."

"Yes." Xue Yan held the fragments and bent his knees and said, "Xue Yan retires." ”

After Xue Yan left, Murong Xuan was even more puzzled.

"Dad, what are you?"

"Xuan'er, Dad hasn't cared much about you all these years, alas." All of Murong Jin's regrets turned into a sigh, "Forget it, it's useless to talk about this now." Dad asked you, if you don't have the protection of the General's Mansion in the future, are you willing to ......?"

"Dad, you, are you going to drive me away?" When Murong Xuan heard "without the protection of the General's Mansion", he couldn't help but panic, and his voice trembled when he spoke.

If you don't have the General's Mansion, wouldn't there be nothing? In Kyoto, power is your capital!

"Xuan'er, why are you ......" Murong Jin was a little puzzled by Murong Xuan's reaction, and then helpless, "Xuan'er, don't worry, you will always be Daddy's child, Dad just wants to ask you, what do you think of Duan Xiu's eldest son?" ”

"General Duan's eldest son, Duan Zhengjie?" Murong Xuan was even more puzzled.

"Well, Dad looks at him well, he came to the General's Mansion during the Chinese New Year, and you have seen it. Dad thinks he's a person worth entrusting, why don't you pack up your things and Dad send someone to send you to the border? "Murong Jin knows that this is a bit inappropriate for a girl who has not left the cabinet, but this is the only way to save her life, Zhi'er has the Queen Mother to protect her, but Xuan'er ......

"Dad, you let me go to the border? Still married a man I don't know at all? Murong Xuan sneered.

"Xuan'er, dad can't help it! At present, only Duan Xiu can protect you! It's no wonder that Dad didn't think of this day before, Dad should have arranged family affairs for you earlier...... "Murong Jin can't let Murong Xuan know the reason behind this, but he also knows that it is really inappropriate to let Murong Xuan marry rashly now, but......

"Dad, it's not too late." Murong Xuan's emotions were also a little excited, her eyes were red, and she looked at Murong Jin expectantly and even begging, "Dad, my daughter likes His Second Highness, and if my daughter wants to marry him, he can also protect her daughter......"

Murong Jin couldn't help frowning when he heard this-

"Xuan'er, why do you like him?"

"He," Murong Xuan wrung his sleeves, how could he tell his father because of his status? "Dad, I don't know, but don't you want someone to protect me? You see, which of the rights, status, and identity of the Second Highness is worse than Duan Zhengjie? ”

Murong Jin originally thought that Murong Xuan really liked Gongyi Jue, but when she mentioned "power, status, and identity", where was love in her eyes, but longing!

"Xuan'er, Dad only hopes that you and Zhi'er can live this life in a good and ordinary way, Second Highness, he is a member of the royal family after all, and he is destined to be ordinary."

But when Murong Jin said this, he probably never expected that he, his daughter, would not live a dull life, since his wife was a royal princess.

"My daughter doesn't want to, and she doesn't want to be ordinary!" Murong Xuan looked at Murong Jin firmly.

"Well, you don't understand it yet. You go to pack up your things, and Dad will immediately send someone to send you to the border pass and Duan Xiu. ”

"Impossible!" Murong Xuan stood up and roared.

"Someone!"

As soon as Murong Jin's words fell, a woman fell lightly from the beam of the room.

"Your Excellency." A plain white woman, wearing a white veil and only a pair of kind eyes, heard about twenty years old.

"Fuchen, this woman pleases you, no matter what method you use, you have to send her to Duan Xiu for me!"

"Dad, don't you think about it!" With that, Murong Xuan pulled up her legs and wanted to run. It's just—

"Bang-" Murong Xuan suddenly collapsed on the wooden bench.

"I hope you don't blame you." Dusting his head, he said slightly apologetically.

"It's okay, I didn't expect this girl to be so fierce." After Murong Jin glanced at Murong Xuan, "If this is still the case on the road, you can tie her up, as long as you ensure that her life is worry-free." ”

"Yes, don't worry, sir."

After a while, Murong Xuan woke up and found that he was still in his room, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but he couldn't speak or move his hands, this was ......

"Xuan'er, you don't have to worry, Dad gave you a point, you can't speak for the time being, but don't worry, it'll be fine in two hours." Murong Jin looked at Murong Xuan with a complicated expression.

"......" After Murong Xuan struggled, he found that it was useless.

"Xue Yan, prepare the carriage, the second lady said that she wants to go to the temple, and I will accompany her."

"Yes." When Xue Yan heard that the master was going to be with the young lady, she couldn't help but be happy, and it seemed that the old man also began to care about the second young lady.

"Xue Yan, you just stay in the garden, just me and Xuan'er go." After Murong got into the carriage, he instructed Xue Yan who was standing next to the carriage.

"Yes." Although Xue Yan was puzzled, she was happy for the young lady, and it was rare to have the master to accompany her to go out.

In Xinlan Garden, Murong Zhi sat on the wooden table in the bedroom, looking at the book in vain, and unconsciously lost his mind, looking out the window, I don't know how long.

"Zhi'er....." A familiar and hoarse voice pulled Murong Zhi back to his thoughts, and turned his head-

"Mochen!" Although Ling Mochen was neatly dressed and his hair was neat, the blue and black under his eyes and the inexplicable emotions in his eyes made Murong Zhi's heart entangle.

"Mochen, what's wrong with you? What's going on lately? How could you ....."

Before Murong Zhi finished speaking, Ling Mochen hugged Murong Zhi, and a unique body fragrance of Murong Zhi entered his nose, and Ling Mochen's heart slowly quieted down, and he murmured in Murong Zhi's ear:

"I'm fine, it's just that I've been a little busy these days, and I haven't seen you for a long time, and I miss you a little, so I haven't rested well."

"Really? Don't lie to me, I asked Glimpse, Glimpse didn't know, I'm still worried about you. ”

"Don't worry, I'm fine." Ling Mochen suddenly looked at Murong Zhi seriously: "By the way, Zhi'er, the Queen Mother may summon you to the palace these days, remember, there will be a fire after entering the palace, when you stay where you are and don't move, I will pick you up." ”

"Why? How do you know? What the hell is going on? When Murong Zhi heard this for some reason, her originally calm heart became uneasy.

"Zhi'er, I don't have time to tell you this now, but don't worry, I'll tell you one by one later, I don't have much time, I can only say this, Zhi'er, protect yourself." Ling Mochen covered Murong Zhi's worried eyes, he was afraid that he would not be able to control it and would take Murong Zhi away desperately.

"Zhi'er, from now on, the glimpse will be by your side. Don't worry, I'll tell you what you want to know, but you must promise me to protect yourself. Ling Mochen put down his hand and looked at Murong Zhi with an almost begging gaze.

"But ......"

"Promise me, okay? Zhi'er. Ling Mochen's almost humble tone made Murong Zhi gasp, the dignified prince of the Yue Kingdom, the most favored prince, how could he have said such a thing?

"Okay, but I don't care what you do, you have to protect yourself."
