Chapter Ninety-Five: Patience
His firm tone dispelled the doubts in the queen's heart.
Want me to marry you? You think beautifully! Gu Wanwan roared in her heart, and wanted to scold, but her wrist was pinched by a hand, and she turned her head to meet Bai Wutong's stopping gaze.
The carriage slowly drove out of the palace, the wheels spinning, the monotonous sound looping, and the pink curtains swaying gently.
Everything has been calm, but Gu Wanwan's heart still seems to have 10,000 grass and mud horses whistling by.
"Why did you stop me just now?" Gu Wanwan finally couldn't restrain the anger in her heart, and roared in a low voice, "Do you also want me to marry Yan Wushuang?" β
"Of course not! How could Wechen have such an idea? Bai Wutong's eyebrows furrowed, raising his eyes to stare at her, his nervousness overflowing.
"Since it's not, then why are you ......" why are you blocking her? Why don't you let her say what she means in her heart? Gu Wanwan really doesn't understand!
"Because you can't!" Bai Wutong's face was solemn, his eyes were dark, and his tone was full of worry, "If the princess repeatedly disobeys the will of the king of the northern frontier and angers him, I am afraid that she will ...... at that time."
Bai Wutong stopped at this point, but Gu Wanwan could already guess what he wanted to say.
"That's right, if I refuse Yan Wushuang again, I'm afraid that they will force me to sign the edict of transferring the land again, and then the Xiliang Women's Kingdom will really fall!"
Thinking back to the situation at that time, she was indeed forced to be helpless, if she was replaced by Bai Wutong, she would have stopped it. Thinking of this, Gu Wanwan's mood calmed down a bit, and she no longer blamed Bai Wutong.
"It's not all!" Bai Wutong's voice sounded faintly, full of worry, "Weichen is still worried that the princess will encounter accidents, and the king of Northern Xinjiang is not a good person." β
Compared with Gu Wanwan, the fall of the Xiliang Women's Kingdom is secondary, if there is no princess, then what's the point of wanting the Xiliang Women's Kingdom to come? Without the princess, even his existence would be meaningless.
Bai Wutong's eyes as he looked at Gu Wanwan became deeper: "Please believe that the princess believes that no matter what, Weichen will take the safety of the princess as the first priority, and will never let the princess suffer any harm." β
Bai Wutong's gaze was so resolute, as if nothing in the world could break it. Gu Wanwan was slightly stunned, and looked at Bai Wutong's eyes full of apology: "I'm sorry, Bai Wutong, I misunderstood you!" β
"It's okay, the princess must apologize." Bai Wutong's green eyes were gentle, and he smiled slightly, as long as Gu Wanwan understood that he would not do anything to be sorry for her.
In an instant, the smile on Bai Wutong's face sank, and he said in a worried tone: "It's just that for now, I still have to ask the princess to endure the humiliation, wait for Weichen to contact the old ministers, and when there is an opportunity, the princess will be rescued safely!" β
"Hmmm! I believe you! Gu Wanwan stretched out her hand and patted Bai Wutong on the shoulder, if there is anyone in this world who will not lie to her, that person is Bai Wutong.
"I'll definitely wait for you, but as a princess, how can I always let you work alone and do nothing by myself?" Gu Wanwan frowned, and the more she thought about it, the more embarrassed she felt.
She, the princess, has never contributed or worried, just letting Bai Wutong run around alone. If it were a peaceful year, she could have closed her eyes and blindly enjoyed the blessings, but now she is clearly just a princess of a dead country, and her country and people are in the hands of others, why is she so worry-free?
But as soon as her words came out, she was immediately stopped by Bai Wutong: "The princess doesn't need to do anything, just protect herself, and leave the rest to Weichen." β
"No, how can you work so hard alone?" Gu Wanwan twisted her eyebrows, she must not be such a selfish princess.
"Wechen never feels hard." Bai Wutong shook his head, a gentle smile on his face. He looked at Gu Wanwan's gaze like a flower that was carefully cared for, as long as he could save her, he was not afraid of any hardship.
Gu Wanwan wanted to say something more, but when she met Bai Wutong's clear and ethereal but very firm gaze, she couldn't speak again, she could only shake her head and sigh.
Bai Wutong is really good to her, she can't just use pale words to describe it, she must hurry up and find a way to revive the Xiliang Women's Kingdom.
When he arrived at Yanwang's Mansion, Gu Wanwan got out of the carriage, and felt that his gaze fell directly on him, and he looked curiously, it was a pair of eyes that were as deep as the night sky, but as cold as cold water.
These eyes are so familiar, even moving, once upon a time she wanted to marry the owner of these eyes, but the world is unpredictable, the fact that there has been a showdown and the current situation are widening the distance between the two of them.
Yan Wushuang, who got out of the carriage first, was standing at the door at the moment, his indifferent eyes fell directly on her, he didn't enter the house, it seemed that he had something to say.
But if he has something to say, does that mean she should listen to her? Gu Wanwan ignored his existence and walked into the door quickly, Yan Wushuang didn't stop her, it seems that she was thinking too much just now, right?
Thinking like this, I felt an inexplicable sense of loss in my heart, and I didn't know where it came from.
After saying goodbye to Bai Wutong, Gu Wanwan returned to her residence, pushed open the door, and the empty room seemed to deepen the feeling of emptiness.
Suddenly stopped, and even felt strange. But as soon as she thought of what she heard Jiang Yuqing say to Yan Wushuang in a soft voice just now, she gave up her plan to take a walk in the garden.
Jiang Yuqing invited Yan Wushuang to the pavilion, saying that she wanted to play the piano for him, if she went out and bumped into the two of them, not only would she destroy the Yaxing of others, but she would also feel that it was redundant for her to stay here.
"How long are you going to stand at this door?"
Suddenly, an emotionless voice came from behind him unexpectedly, and Gu Wanwan was startled.
Immediately looked back, under a pair of dark thick eyebrows, a pair of phoenix eyes with a dark light, and then down, a high nose bridge, a resolute chin, no part is imperfect, this face exudes a breathtaking charm like a demon.
"Silly?" Seeing that she didn't blink, just listening to herself, Yan Wushuang raised her eyebrows.
"You're stupid!" Gu Wanwan came back from her stunned and glared at Yan Wushuang unhappily, but she couldn't help but wonder in her heart that he shouldn't have accompanied Jiang Yuqing to play music on the piano at this time? How did you get here?
"Why don't you come into the house if you're not stupid?" Yan Wushuang asked as she continued.
"You want to care?" Gu Wanwan glanced at him. Although he said so, he had already pushed the door in.
Thinking that when she entered the room, Yan Wushuang would leave, and she wouldn't say anything more about her "stupid, right?" But what she didn't expect was that Yan Wushuang actually followed her into the house.
"What are you doing?"
Gu Wanwan stared at him in surprise. What he got was Yan Wushuang's rhetorical question: "Can't this king come in?" β
"Isn't this nonsense? Why can you get into my room? Gu Wanwan didn't think about it, so she shouted out the words in her heart, and her tone was mixed with anger.
"You seem to have forgotten what this place is, and who you are!" After Yan Wushuang heard this, he pointed his finger at Gu Wanwan and sneered.
Then without waiting for Gu Wanwan to speak, he replied by himself: "This is the king's Yan Wangfu, and you are the future princess of this king, your room, why can't this king come in!" β
Depend on! Look at his arrogant and arrogant attitude, and that tone of course......
Gu Wanwan's face suddenly sank, and she raised her eyes angrily: "You are enough, I never promised to marry you, please put away your self-righteous look!" β
"You're not going to marry this king?" Yan Wushuang sneered, as if he had heard some joke, "If you don't marry this king, who do you want to marry?" β
"Who do you care I marry? Anyway, if I don't marry you! Gu Wanwan shouted angrily. The words were even more warned, and she swore that if Yan Wushuang was so annoying again, she would teach him a lesson.
But Yan Wushuang is like this! Gu Wanwan's firm tone did not change the expression on his face, he still raised his arrogant head and looked at each other coldly: "Gu Wanwan, do you think you can really choose?" β
"Hearing you say that, you want to marry me?" Gu Wanwan smiled silently and reminded him, "What about Jiang Yuqing?" If I am a concubine, what does she do? β
He seems to have forgotten that he already has a fiancΓ©e!
"What do you want her to do?" Yan Wushuang only paused slightly, and then asked Gu Wanwan in his emotionless voice.
What do I want her to do? Gu Wanwan read this sentence in her heart, and the unprovoked anger rushed straight up from the bottom of her heart.
"Yan Wushuang, can I ask you to love your face? You want to have three wives and four concubines, hugging left and right is your business, but please don't insult me, I'm not that kind of woman! β
"What kind of woman aren't you?" Yan Wushuang was slightly stunned, and a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.
Yan Wushuang has this kind of ability, every look, every tone is so annoying.
Gu Wanwan glared at him fiercely, if her eyes could kill people, then Yan Wushuang would have died under her eyes.
"It's your business to marry as many women as you want, but if you want to make me your harem, I can only tell you that you are delusional!" Gu Wanwan tried hard to suppress the anger in her heart, and warned Yan Wushuang in a fairly calm voice.
"Is it delusional?" Yan Wushuang smiled again after hearing this, and there was a hint of playfulness on the corner of his mouth, "This king remembers that when he was in the palace, someone personally admitted that he had committed himself to this king's affairs. β
"Fart! My aunt and grandmother are talking about Youwang Fengjiu, not you! Gu Wanwan was rude, she could no longer restrain the fire in her heart, she felt that she was about to burn with anger.
As soon as these words came out, the face full of sneers in front of her first froze, and then the eyes staring at her were completely suppressed. Gu Wanwan instinctively stepped back, she didn't want this guy to touch her, but her movements were obviously a step slower, and she was clamped by him, and the steel-like force made her struggle.
"You let go of me!" Gu Wanwan was ashamed and annoyed, and yelled at Yan Wushuang.
"What if you don't let it go? How can you take this king? Yan Wushuang raised his eyebrows, and his cold eyes looked straight down, with a bold momentum.
After several struggles, Gu Wanwan had already retreated to the wall, not only failed to avoid Yan Wushuang, but also gave him a chance to cling close.
Gu Wanwan suddenly blushed: "You go away!" She pushed Yan Wushuang with her hand, but she didn't know that her hand touched the hard chest, and she was captured by him again.
