After a morning of tossing and turning, Ye Chuqing was paralyzed from exhaustion. Finally, when it was over, I kicked everyone out of the room, climbed into bed and began to sleep.

Hey? When did you get home? Ye Chuqing thought in a daze, and involuntarily walked into a door. After entering, I saw the sofa coffee table in the living room at a glance, and on the sofa, a middle-aged man wearing glasses was reading a newspaper. Beside him was a pillow made by Ye Chuqing herself. A few steps further, I saw a figure busy in the kitchen. "Mom, Dad?" Ye Chuqing couldn't help but scream, but ...... Mom and Dad didn't seem to hear it. She went further inside and saw her brother's door open, and he was lying in front of the computer playing games.

"Mom, Dad! I'm back! She shouted happily, but her parents did not respond or even look at her, and her brother did not respond.

What's going on? Ye Chuqing was puzzled in her heart, and was about to walk in front of her father, when she was suddenly awakened by a loud noise: "Girl, girl, get up, hurry!" ”

Ye Chuqing sat up angrily and looked left and right, this ...... Where did you come from the sofa coffee table, Mom and Dad, isn't this still the room in your ancient times?

"I'll go! It's a dream again! Ye Chuqing muttered, got out of bed and got dressed, opened the door and shouted, "What are you doing?" It's noisy! ”

Qiao Rong hurriedly answered nervously: "Girl, if you don't come out again, you will really die!" ”

Ye Chuqing was shocked by her words, and hurriedly asked, "What's the situation?" ”

Qiao Rong replied: "Your Majesty has a royal decree coming down, and Madame told you to go and receive the decree quickly!" ”

"Give it to me?" Ye Chuqing pointed at herself a little confused.

Qiao Rong was also anxious at this time, and pulled Ye Chuqing and ran out: "My girl, let's go first!" Let's talk about it. ”

When I arrived at the hall, I saw that the people in the Ye Mansion were there, and there was an incense case in the main hall, and there was a bright yellow holy decree on the incense case.

Seeing Ye Chuqing coming, the Xu family hurriedly pulled Ye Chuqing to kneel, and the eunuch who delivered the decree cleaned his hands and stepped forward to announce the decree: "Everyone listens to the decree." The edict of the lord of the country said: General Ye Qingyun, as the general of the country, has fought on the battlefield abroad, and his hard work has been high. Strict in governing the family, teaching women well. Today, there is the second daughter of General Ye, Ye Shichuqing, fifteen years old, dignified appearance, both civil and military, and beautiful and wise, and specially married Sikong Jing, the son of King An, as the concubine. Wait for the next year to get married, thank you! ”

"What?" Ye Chuqing's sudden shout frightened the eunuch's hand trembling, and the holy decree almost fell to the ground.

I saw Ye Chuqing standing alone in the middle of a group of kneeling people so abruptly, her face full of horror and disbelief.

The eunuch looked at Ye Chuqing, then looked at the holy decree in his hand, and said with a smile: "Miss Ye, this is the holy decree of His Majesty the Lord of the Kingdom to give you a marriage, hurry up and accept the decree!" ”

"Marriage? Give me? Ye Chuqing still couldn't believe that her marriage was decided by a piece of paper.

"I ......" Ye Chuqing was just about to speak, when Xu suddenly pulled her to her knees, knocking her knees painfully.

Before Ye Chuqing could speak, Xu had already received the holy decree: "Father-in-law, don't blame! The kid was probably too surprised and didn't react. I'm a mother to pick it up for her! ”

The father-in-law looked at Xu, and then at Ye Chuqing's stunned appearance, so he handed over the holy decree to Xu, and said, "It's okay, Mrs. is the girl's biological mother, and it's okay to accept the decree on behalf of the girl!" ”

Xu Shi hurriedly took the holy decree with both hands and held it above his head, and said, "Thank you, Lord Longen!" Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live! ”

After the housekeeper sent the eunuch out, Ye Chuqing suddenly broke out: "What do you mean?" What do you mean? A word from the lord of the country decided my marriage? Why? ”

Xu sighed and said, "Because, he is the lord of the country and the king of the country!" ”

"King? Hum! Ye Chuqing sneered and slapped the table hard: "I, Ye Chuqing, have never believed in any royal power, does he think that with his identity, he can decide everything?" No way! ”

Xu Shi was startled, hurriedly held Ye Chuqing's hand, and asked nervously, "Qing'er, are you...... Can't talk nonsense! ”

"Mother!" Ye Chuqing hurriedly said, "What's the matter?" Can't I make my own decisions? I have always been an independent and self-reliant person, and I do not accept marriage! ”

Xu Shi was helpless and said with tears in his eyes: "Qing'er, you are talking nonsense again!" Why is the daughter's family independent and self-reliant? His Majesty has given us wealth and glory, and we must be loyal to him! ”

Ye Chuqing looked at Xu in disbelief, and was amused by her words: "I said mother, are you okay?" Was the wealth and glory of the Ye family given by the lord of the country? That's my father leading thousands of people to fight with their lives, how can I say it's his gift? Faithful? What loyalty? You're just foolish! Even if we are to be faithful, we are loyal to the country and the people, not to the king! ”

"Qing'er!" Xu suddenly roared angrily and sobbed: "Why are you so ignorant? Do you think your mother is willing to marry you? But His Majesty the Lord of the Kingdom has already made a decree, and this matter is a foregone conclusion! ”

Ye Chuqing raised her head and asked, "If I ...... Don't accept it? ”

Xu Shi was shocked, looked at Ye Chuqing slowly, and shook his head regretfully: "That is, if you don't obey the order, our entire Ye family will be punished, and even your father and brother will be implicated." If it is used by someone with a heart, the consequences are unimaginable! ”

"Did you say it was so serious?" Ye Chuqing lowered her eyes, and her voice was cold.

"Qing'er, how long are you going to be willful?" Xu seems to be a little angry!

Ye Chuqing smiled lightly, looking innocent: "Capricious? I don't! I just want to be married! My own husband, I choose my own, why should someone else choose? That's to live with me for the rest of your life, not with someone else! ”

"You...... What did you say? Xu Shi pointed at Ye Chuqing's voice trembled: "I said so much, why can't you listen?" Your marriage doesn't matter if anyone says it, it's decided by His Majesty the Lord of the country. Your Majesty's marriage, that is the glory of our Ye family, you marry the prince of An as the princess, and you will be the upright Princess An in the future, which is also the glory of the Ye family! We have no choice! ”

"Glory?" Ye Chuqing sneered, raised her eyes to look at Xu, and said lightly: "It turns out that my life is only worth these two words?" ”

Xu Shi trembled, angry, and stretched out his hand to slap Ye Chuqing! It's just that after the fight, Xu was frightened by his actions. She looked at her palm, and hurriedly ran over to grab Ye Chuqing: "Qing'er, Qing'er, I'm sorry." Mother...... Mother didn't mean to! Come, mother, take a look, did it hurt you? Saying that, Xu Shi reached out to hold Ye Chuqing's face, who thought that Ye Chuqing turned his head coldly.

Xu looked at her for a long time and left crying.

When Xu left completely, Ye Chuqing turned his head, touched his beaten cheek, and sat on the chair.
