Chapter 223: Take the initiative
After Bai Miaomiao listened to the princess's words, she pulled her legs and rushed out to chase Bai Xiannuo, but fortunately, Bai Xiannuo was walking on the road in a daze, and she didn't go far, and Bai Miaomiao quickly caught up with him.
"Brother, wait for me ......" Bai Miaomiao shouted at Bai Xiannuo's back, Bai Xiannuo didn't hear it at first, he continued to walk forward, Bai Miaomiao was a little anxious, she quickened her pace, so her voice was getting closer and closer to Bai Xiannuo.
Bai Xiannuo suddenly stopped, turned to look at Bai Miaomiao, his sad gaze swept over Bai Miaomiao's face, and asked indifferently, "What's wrong?" ”
Bai Miaomiao has always been frizzy in doing things, and now she is in such a hurry, could it be that something happened to the princess? He couldn't help but wonder in his heart, how could he not guess the reason, at this time, Bai Miaomiao had already come to his side.
"Brother, I know why the princess rejected you." Bai Miaomiao gasped, she patted her chest, and only after she had recovered her breath did she open her lips and said, "The princess is in trouble, do you remember the news of harmony in the court a while ago, the object is the princess, and it is precisely because she took this into account that she rejected you." ”
Bai Xiannuo was slightly stunned, he didn't think about kissing at all, after listening to the princess's words, he left heartbroken, he really thought that the princess didn't like him, and now when he heard Bai Miaomiao say this, hope ignited in his heart again, and his deep eyes stayed on Bai Miaomiao's body.
He repeated Bai Miaomiao's words in surprise: "Miaomiao, you said that the princess still loves me, and only rejected me because of her affinity?" ”
The two walked into the restaurant next to them, sat together and talked carefully, Bai Miaomiao nodded, and was sure in every way, "After you left, the princess was in tears, if you turned back at that time, you would definitely see the princess crying with pear blossoms and rain, brother, what are you going to do next?" ”
Bai Miaomiao rolled her big eyes, looked at Bai Xiannuo with expectant eyes, hoping that he could have an expression, Bai Xiannuo hesitated for a while, strengthened his thoughts, and he resolutely said: "Since the two are happy, how can they be separated, Miaomiao, I want to marry the princess as his wife." ”
"Really? Brother, you've finally got the hang of it. Bai Miaomiao jumped up from the chair excitedly, instantly hugged Bai Xiannuo's arm, and said with relief, "Brother, it's right to think so, don't care about whether you are in harmony with each other, as long as you and the princess are in love, I believe the emperor will not be so ruthless to break you up." ”
When Bai Xiannuo heard this, he smiled indifferently and shook his head slightly, how could the emperor let go easily, for the sake of the health of the border between the two countries, if there is no replacement candidate, or something happens to the princess, even if he is the son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the emperor will not give face, Bai Miaomiao simplifies everything, and thinks too well.
"Brother, Wanjun and I will help you, so let go of what you want to do, if it really doesn't work, you can elope with the princess, and we'll figure out the rest." Bai Miaomiao was sincere, for the sake of her brother's happiness, she did not hesitate to say the words of elopement.
Bai Xiannuo smiled dumbly, seeing Bai Miaomiao's clear attitude and constantly encouraging and supporting him, a trace of warmth flowed in his heart, and he really didn't hurt this sister in vain. And Xie Wanjun has been staying in the princess's mansion, constantly admonishing and comforting the princess.
"Princess, the matter is man-made, and it is not yet time to make peace, we can find a way to solve it." Xie Wanjun patted the princess on the shoulder and said with concern, "Don't you want to marry the person you like, and would you like to see both parties fall into pain?" ”
In the face of Xie Wanjun's questioning, the princess did not respond to her, but just lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking, the tears in the corners of her eyes revealed her sad thoughts, and Xie Wanjun was still talking endlessly, the princess was probably tired of it, and she interrupted Xie Wanjun's words softly.
"Wanjun, why don't I want to marry Bai Xiannuo!" The princess's voice became more and more choked, she swallowed her saliva, swallowed her complaints and grievances, and continued, "I am most familiar with my father's temperament, and it is impossible for him to withdraw from his family unless I die." ”
She was worried, her red and swollen eyes were particularly prominent on her palm-sized face, seeing that her words did not have the desired effect, Xie Wanjun sighed helplessly, and had to say goodbye to the princess, and after returning home, she immediately found Su Qing and told him everything that happened today.
"Have you persuaded the princess?" Su Qing frowned, according to Xie Wanjun's docile temper, she would definitely persuade the princess with good words, comfort the princess, and then let the princess rebel against the emperor's will, and Xie Wanjun usually persuades others to convince people with reason, how did she get to the princess, but it is not good.
Xie Wanjun nodded helplessly, soft is not good, is it difficult to come hard? She pursed her lips and continued: "I also told her that the greatest luck of a woman in her life is to marry the right man, no matter what, she must marry love, and she must not wronged herself in this regard, but the princess took my words as wind in her ears and ignored them. ”
"That'...... You have to let Bai Xiannuo take the initiative, only by taking the initiative will there be a story, Wanjun, since the princess can't persuade her, she has to start with Bai Xiannuo, you go and have a good chat with him. Su Qing walked back and forth in the room a few times, if Bai Xiannuo was unwilling to take the initiative, he and the princess would definitely go farther and farther.
Xie Wanjun also felt that he was reasonable, if so, she had to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion and ask Bai Xiannuo what she wanted to do next, whether she wanted to give up this relationship, or continue to chase despite the dangers, if Bai Xiannuo was willing, she and Su Qing would definitely do their best to match him and the princess.
She didn't slack off for a moment, and then got into the carriage and went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to visit Bai Xiannuo, as soon as she saw Xie Wanjun's figure, Bai Xiannuo knew her intention, so she told Xie Wanjun her thoughts.
"Wanjun, I've been bothering you for this time, don't worry, I will chase back the princess, and I will marry her alone in my life." Bai Xiannuo said affectionately, he had never said such a thing, and he was indeed sincere to the princess.
Xie Wanjun was overjoyed in her heart, she didn't expect things to go so smoothly, to her surprise, a happy smile appeared on her face, and she nodded again and again, seeing Bai Xiannuo's attitude so resolute, she was relieved and decided to give advice to Bai Xiannuo.
"That's right, I'll help you figure it out." Xie Wanjun said with a smile, she opened her mouth, and wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Bai Miaomiao.
I saw Bai Miaomiao tugging at her sleeve and said with a smile: "Wanjun, don't worry about this, my brother will have a way." ”
Xie Wanjun raised his eyebrows, his surprised eyes stayed on Bai Xiannuo's body, Bai Xiannuo nodded, he wanted to show his love to the princess, and then, Xie Wanjun smiled slowly and made a cheering gesture to him, indicating that he was optimistic about Bai Xiannuo.
After Xie Wanjun returned from the princess's mansion, before she reached the door, Zhao stopped her, Xie Wanjun looked at Zhao suspiciously, and Zhao hurriedly said: "The old lady's health is not good again, you go and take a look, I will go and ask Sun Langzhong to come over and have a look." ”
"Okay, I'll go in." Xie Wanjun nodded, crossed the Zhao family and hurriedly ran to the old lady's room, and sure enough, she saw the old lady lying on the bed weakly, and Su Qing was taking care of her on the side.
When she saw Xie Wanjun, there was a glimmer of light in the old lady's eyes, she coughed a few times, and said in a hoarse voice: "Why did you come back now?" ”
"Mother, you are not in good health, don't talk yet, Sun Langzhong will be here soon." Xie Wanjun covered the old lady with a quilt and let her rest, then moved her eyes to Su Qing's body, and asked in a low voice, "Su Qing, why did my mother suddenly fall ill?" ”
Su Qing shook his head, he didn't know what was going on, as soon as he came back, he was told by Zhao that the old lady was not in good health and was resting on the bed. As he spoke, Sun Langzhong had already arrived, and Zhao followed behind him panting.
"Sun Langzhong, let's take a look at the old lady's body first, I don't know what's going on, usually her body is quite healthy, but today she is groggy." Zhao's words revealed a slight worry, the old lady treats her well on weekdays, and she naturally doesn't want the old lady to have anything to do.
Sun Langzhong put down the medicine box and checked the pulse of the old lady, he pondered for a moment before he said: "The old lady's body is fine, the problem is in her heart, as long as she finds out her heart knot, the old lady's illness will naturally be cured." ”
"Heart knots?" Xie Wanjun muttered and repeated, thinking to herself, the old lady stays at home every day, she doesn't worry about clothes or drink, and her family is healthy and nothing happens, what knots will her old man have!
Sun Langzhong's next words made them suddenly enlightened, "According to the old lady's pulse, this is a manifestation of excessive worry, and you still have to think carefully about what you are worried about." ”
While talking, Sun Langzhong got up and put away the medicine box, and then he left a prescription and left under Zhao's respect. Xie Wanjun is a smart person, as soon as she heard Sun Langzhong's words, she knew what the old lady was worried about, she and Su Qing looked at each other, obviously, Su Qing also noticed it.
"Wanjun, my mother is worried about the child in your belly, you are outside, out of her sight, she can't know whether the child is stable, and over time, it will become like this." Su Qing frowned, his worried eyes stayed on the old lady, he had always known that the old lady cared about the child, but he didn't expect her to be worried about becoming ill, which made Su Qing suddenly difficult.
"I know." Hearing Su Qing's voice full of reproach, she responded lightly in a low voice, feeling a little unhappy, and then she left Su Qing, sat beside the old lady, grabbed her warm and rough fingers and pinched them in her hands, her mind was spinning rapidly, thinking about how to comfort the old lady.
"Mother, I have my own body in measure, the child will be fine, now that the princess has learned to dance, I only need to be guided by the side, and I don't need me to dance to her, so most of the time, I sit obediently on the stool and do not suffer a little." Xie Wanjun said slowly, casting a reassuring look at the old lady.
