Chapter 125: Just a foil
I think about my eldest brother, and now his face is calm, and I don't see anything unusual. Looking at his attitude towards Mingyue in just a few times, it seems that he is very normal, and he can't see any special feelings, even if he is divorced by the emperor at this moment, he still looks safe. I can't see what he thinks, whether he really doesn't care about this marriage from the bottom of his heart or hides his feelings too deeply, and doesn't let others see any of his emotions at all.
Either way, the only thing I can comfort him now is that it's a good thing that he's divorced, etc., so that whether he really doesn't care or doesn't want us to worry, this comfort is useful. The eldest brother smiled after listening to my words, but he didn't say anything more.
I was about to say something more to change the subject, when I heard a shout coming from outside the door.
"Brother Scarlet Dust......" screamed, and for a moment I felt that the whole person was not good, and my hairs trembled. raised his head and looked, and sure enough, he saw Helan Mingyue running in crying, and threw herself into the arms of her eldest brother and cried loudly.
Unexpectedly, the eldest brother didn't push Mingyue away, but just stiffened and didn't move, letting Mingyue ravage the clothes on his body.
"Smoke ......", I felt even worse, turned around and walked out, only to find that the person had already entered the hall, and the person who came was Mingjin. It is estimated that when this brother and sister came to Yuan's Mansion today, they must have heard about Ming Ni's selection of concubines.
"Smoke...... You can't go to Narune's concubine election. Mingjin grabbed my arm and said hurriedly.
"Your Royal Highness the Fifth Prince, the holy decree has been issued, do you want me to resist the decree?" I gently pulled away Mingjin's hand, looked at his bright eyes, and said seriously.
Mingjin was suddenly stopped by me and hesitated for a long time, and said, "That'...... Then you can't go to the concubine election. I will go and ask my father for a decree that you may be married to me. So saying, he turned around and went out.
I grabbed him with my eyes and said, "You wait." Listen to me first. ”
Mingjin stopped, turned his head to look at me and said, "Say it." ”
"It's not my business alone to participate in the election of concubines, but a major event related to the Yuan family and even the Yao Yan Kingdom, how can you, as a prince, not know this? You just don't want to face it, in fact, you must know in your heart that I have to go to this concubine. But going to participate in the selection of concubines does not mean that I will definitely be selected, the fifth prince, you think too highly of me, I am just an ordinary woman, and I may not be able to do everything. What's more, all countries will send people there, and I am only one of them, so the chance of being selected will be even smaller. Besides, you should understand that the person the emperor actually likes more is not me, and the rest of us are just a foil. ”
"It's not a small chance, it's not a complete lack of chance." Mingjin is still a little awkward.
"Your Highness obviously understands everything, but he is messing around here. Please forgive the little woman for something and retire first. "I was a little annoyed in my heart, Ming Jin had to play a child's temper at this time, I didn't want to entangle with him any more, so I came out of the hall. But who knew that Mingjin was pulling me and refused to let me go.
"Yan'er, don't be angry with me, I'm just too anxious." It really flattered me that someone as arrogant as Ming Jin could think that I would bow my head and admit my mistakes. In this case, I can't refute his face anymore, not to mention that I am also very similar to watching Mingyue's good show.
