Chapter Thirty-Six: Treating Each Other with Sincerity
"Sugar gourd, fragrant and sweet sugar gourd, it's not delicious and doesn't cost money, come and try it." A hearty and enthusiastic shouting came from under the bridge, and it was very crisp in the bustling and noisy street market.
"County Lord, there is a sugar gourd seller below, the ninth prince was still making trouble asking for it a few days ago, let's go buy it for him." Jiaojiao saw that Yu Zijin's mood was still not high, but the sullen cousin would not make the county lord happy, which made her even more unhappy.
"Yes, county lord, it's hard to get out, let's just relax, and the slaves and maids will accompany you around." Forsythia can see that his master has a lot of thoughts, his daughter has a lot of worries, and the county lord is no longer the innocent and carefree little girl he was back then, so what is going on is not what they should spy on as slaves, so they can only do their best to solve their worries for the Lord.
Knowing that the two girls were worried, Yu Zijin reluctantly smiled and let them take them under the bridge.
The little brother who sells sugar gourds not only has a crisp and pleasant voice, but also looks delicate, and when he saw three weak and slender beautiful women coming towards him, he immediately smiled enthusiastically, "The three girls want to taste the small sugar gourd, which is fragrant and sweet, and you want to eat it." β
"Our young lady doesn't like sweets, just pick two strings of good ones for us to take back to the little boy to eat, it's best to bring some sour." Forsythia said as she pulled the silver into her purse.
"Okay!" The little brother smiled and chose the sugar gourd, and said while choosing: "The girl really found the right person this time, the little hawthorn is the hawthorn that my brother brought from Luzhou, it is sour and sweet, and your little son likes it." β
For this little brother's words, Forsythia and Jiaojiao didn't take it seriously, now things are separated, although the trade route is not endless, how can ordinary people go to Luzhou for the bag of hawthorn, this little brother brags and doesn't make drafts.
Yu Zijin stood quietly behind Forsythia and looked at the little brother, she had heard of Ganlong grapes and Ganlong melons, when did a Ganlong hawthorn emerge? This man is dressed in coarse cloth clothes, but he can't hide his handsomeness, and his white hands don't look like he was born in a poor family.
Forsythia paid for the sugar gourd, and together with Jiaojiao, he was about to leave with Yuzijin, but he listened to Yuzijin's instructions: "Forsythia, you go to the jade food restaurant in front of you to buy two boxes of pastries for the ninth brother, hawthorn eats too much and hurts his spleen and stomach, so he can go back to gluttony." β
"Yes, slave and maid will go."
"Oh, I forgot about the sixth brother," Seeing Forsythia walking away, Yu Zijin suddenly remembered, "Jiaojiao, you go to the Baozhen Building on the next street to buy him some favorite meat stew, lest he say I'm biased." β
I knew that it was troublesome for the sixth prince to come back, Jiaojiao looked around, no matter what, this place is very close to the palace, and the county lord is also full of martial arts, and it is estimated that there will be nothing wrong with one person here, and after a while, Sister Forsythia will come back, and tell Yu Zijin to wait and leave.
After the two maids walked away, Yu Zijin looked at the little brother suspiciously, "Yes...... Did he send you? β
"Madame really has good eyesight!" The little brother put away the flattering smile before, replaced it with a righteous expression, and didn't ask who "he" was in Yu Zijin's mouth.
"Ma'am?" Yu Zijin was puzzled.
The little brother smiled: "The villain Yuwen Pengju is the close person of the fourth master, you are the wife of the fourth master, aren't you the lady?" The fourth master had something to tell Pengju to bring to his wife. β
Yu Zijin listened for a long time before he understood who the "fourth master" was in his mouth, "What did he tell you to say?" β
"The fourth master said, let my sister be well, don't worry. He asked you to remember that he has only one wife in this life, no matter what you hear or know, just remember what he said to you in the Yuelao Temple that day, everything else is not important, please don't mess up, and ......" Sharp eyes caught a glimpse of the forsythia who had returned not far away, Yu Wenpeng hurriedly pulled out an object from his sleeve and stuffed it into Yu Zijin's hand, "There is also 'I have sincerity, treat my son to each other', the fourth master said that he was waiting for you in Luzhou." β
"Selling sugar gourds, fragrant and sweet sugar gourds......"
Yu Zijin tightly put away the things in his arms, looked at the figure who was selling and leaving along the street, thinking about what he had just said, yes, he said that she was the only wife in this life, and she was already his wife. Who can force that person to do what he doesn't want to do?
Nishihara Kamiraku Imperial Palace.
Red silk Luomen, the lanterns are high, today will be presided over by the saint himself to carry out the wedding ceremony between King Yingcheng and Princess Lechang, the palace people will arrange the entire palace early, and its rich and festive enveloping the entire palace city, it can be seen that the original industry attaches great importance to this family business.
According to the original clan etiquette system, before the marriage ceremony was held, the two newlyweds could meet each other in the warm pavilion and meet each other, and the right to be regarded as the enlightened move of the clan, in addition to the words of the matchmaker of the parents, become the beauty of the new people's affection, and avoid teaching the princess to find the wrong Langjun.
The rules are such a rule, under the emperor's decree, which princess and county lord dare to disobey, saying that it is to meet each other to interfere with marrying the wrong Langjun, but in fact, it is just a small favor outside the emperor's order, and it is just a good name.
But this time, the 400-year-old rules of the Yuan clan are destined to be torn apart.
Looking at the people who were about to walk outside the curtain, Princess Lechang was dressed in a jade face, and she lost her confidence in her royal noble temperament, hesitated again and again, and finally said: "Lord, according to the etiquette system, you can only go out of this door when you have a full stick of incense." β
It is already a shame to ask for a golden branch and jade leaf to keep her fiancΓ© in the face ceremony, and if she says this again, even if Princess Lechang has been raised by the royal family since she was a child, she can't help but blush.
Besides, he didn't say a word to her, and he didn't even look at her appearance, so indifferent and ignored, how could he make a newcomer meet? If it gets out, won't people talk about her being treated as nothing by her fiancΓ©?
Yu Wenzheng sneered, he couldn't sit still? "The princess is raised by the etiquette system at a young age, doesn't she know that there is a difference between men and women, why does this king want to share a room with the princess who is lonely and widowed?"
Princess Lechang was dumbfounded, they had to be married by the decree of the saint, and today they had a marriage ceremony, what is the reason why they are in the same room?
"Did you forget? Today is the day when you and I make a marriage, we should follow the ancestral system and make a face-to-face ceremony! β
"That's your royal gift, I've never done this in the Lechuan Yuwen clan!"
"You ......" was choked by this person's indifferent and rude aggressiveness, Princess Lechang wanted to put her identity, but she still controlled it, she persuaded with good words: "The emperor's holy decree has been issued, I can only wronged the prince, and when he gets married, you and I are husband and wife in the eyes of the world. β
Since she grew up in the deep palace, she understands the horror of rumors better than anyone else, if Yuwen Zheng goes out of this door directly, even if the marriage ceremony is held, the message will make her lose face in an instant.
The Yuan clan was in decline, and the imperial brother did nothing, thinking that taking them to Yuwen Zheng would be able to use his power to help the world and rebuild the ancestral foundation. But out of Yuce's prison, they are still sent under the fence after all. What if he is the emperor, Yuwen Zheng is the real master of Xiyuan, only by catching him and marrying him, can she keep the glory of her life, and he is so heroic and brave, how can she not be tempted?
"What the world thinks, this king doesn't care! The princess is a smart person, why is this marriage, you must know more than the emperor in your heart, why do you pretend to be stupid with this king? β
Princess Lechang's heart was cold, this marriage was made by the royal brother in order to win him over, and anyone with a discerning eye understood it. It's just that she is not the only sister of the royal brother, so why it is her turn but no one investigates it. Unexpectedly, her self-righteous and seamless means were all looked at by this person.
She knew that Yu Wenzheng was not a soft-hearted person, her cousin Wanhua County Lord and the imperial brother had a bad relationship, and was almost married to Wanshao by Yutian, thinking that she would save herself by escaping to western Sichuan, and became even more unscrupulous, but the matter with the imperial brother was found out by this person and immediately killed, and now the imperial brother still thinks that Wanhua was poisoned by mistake and died, and she is sad all day long.
Lifting the skirt over the bead curtain to Yu Wenzheng, the colorful clothes and brocade clothes were swaying gorgeously, Princess Lechang knelt on her knees, "Lechang knows that he is despicable and virtuous, and he is not worthy of the prince, but the dust has settled, the holy decree has been issued, you are my husband, I am your wife, and I hope that the prince will not hesitate to leave the name of Lechang!" β
She is not a willful woman, so she will not make trouble to ask the imperial brother to call the shots for him, and he is difficult to protect himself, how to be the master of this person, compared to the loss of face in the future, the bending of the knee at this moment is nothing to her.
"This king already has a wife!" Yu Wenzheng's expression was stern, and he played with his fingers.
The eldest princess of Lechang was taken aback and said excitedly: "Then why Lechang?" "It's not a wife, it's okay to be a flat wife, all she wants is the honor brought by the identity of Princess Yingcheng.
"You're just Princess Lechang!" Yu Wenzheng's cold words extinguished all of Lechang's hopes, "This king will save you face, and you will refuse this kiss yourself." Princess Anling and Princess Deyi fell from their horses and lost their sacred hearts, this king has no time to care, and he won't care, but this king's favor will not be given away in vain, do you understand? β
Princess Lechang's eyes widened more and more, and she trembled and said, "This palace doesn't understand, ...... you, prince."
"The gift of face-to-face, if the princess doesn't like it, she can ask the emperor to take back her fate."
Princess Lechang fell to her knees and shouted, "That's just a lie!" The holy decree has been issued, and since ancient times, no sect girl has dared to resist the decree because her fiancΓ© is not in line with the face ceremony! This is disobedience! It's a big deal! β
She saved her face and gave her favors, but on the contrary, she was going to die! In this way, she would rather not have that face, what if the matter is exposed? The left and right are just sisters who hate her, and the imperial brother just wants to marry Yuwen Zheng alone to control the Yingcheng Palace, and give birth to the heir of the Yuwen family with the blood of the Yuan family in the future, what is the difference between who it is? As long as the royal brother doesn't care, what can others do?
Yu Wenzheng didn't care about her superfluous thoughts, didn't leave a single superfluous gaze, and pushed the door directly, "Do what this king says, keep you safe, if there are branches...... The princess should know that the king has the ability to set up a meeting between you and the sisters of the lord of Wanhua! β
Crawling on the ground and crying bitterly, the cold wind blew from outside the house, messing up the dress that Princess Lechang was carefully wearing, with his power, with his means, she had other ways out except according to his words. It turns out that calculations come and go, and she always calculates herself!
Out of the warm pavilion, Yu Wenzheng didn't look at all the halls that were only waiting for the newcomers to come, and as for the fact that Princess Lechang refused to marry King Yingcheng when she was in the palace, he didn't care about it all over the world. He walked aimlessly on the long and lonely road in the night, the purple python's luxurious prince's suit swayed in the cold wind, and his long and well-fitting figure was extremely lonely in the night.
Gripping his red rope knot hair in the palm of his sleeve, that bright smiling face seemed to appear in front of him again, and it was almost time for Pengju to show the sun in the past few days.
If you don't see each other for a day, it's really uncomfortable.
Zijin, have you ever received a message from me? Have you misunderstood me? Do you blame me?
The fingertips traced the token that was warmed in the palm, and the girl's eyes were extremely bright when a moonlight shot into the lotus tent.
Ah Zheng, you wait for me, I will be able to see you soon, for a long time, for a short time, Zijin will eventually accompany you.
