I said, "So, Lord Wu was ordered to come over, what is the matter?" ”

Wu Yanqiu smiled and said, "I came to Jinling to send posts to you on the orders of the emperor. ”

"Posts?"

I was stunned when I heard this, and I couldn't help but be a little puzzled. Even if Pei Yuanhao is in Yangzhou these days, he takes care of all the affairs in detail, but how can he let a waiter of the Ministry of Rites do such a thing as sending posts.

Unless that post—

I was about to ask, but before I could speak, the Han family sisters who walked in behind me were also stunned for a moment when they heard the words, and Han Zitong immediately asked, "What post?" ”

Wu Yanqiu smiled and stretched out his hand, and the entourage standing behind him immediately presented a stack of red posts, and he also presented it to us respectfully, smiling and saying, "Of course it's a wedding card." ”

Invitation?

I just felt a pound in my chest: "Whose wedding card?" ”

Wu Yanqiu said word by word: "The younger sister of the emperor's majesty, the eldest princess of Chao'an, and the head of the household department, the wedding card of Lord Yin Liu of Yangzhou Mansion. ”

……

As soon as he said this, the entire antechamber fell silent.

And I stood there, and for a moment I lost consciousness.

What did he say?

Big wedding card?

...... the eldest princess of Anguo? ...... Lord Yin Liu of Yangzhou Mansion? Invitation?

They-

I raised my head suddenly, only to feel that my breath was suffocated, and I couldn't say anything for a while, just looking at Wu Yanqiu holding a big red wedding card in his hand, like a flame burning in front of me, making people's eyes feel a burning sting. I didn't move, Wu Yanqiu looked up at me, and sent the post in front of me again, as if he said something, but my ears were buzzing, I couldn't hear anything, and when I saw him hand the post over, I subconsciously reached out to catch it.

It's like getting a piece of charcoal with a flame on it.

I subconsciously raised my head and looked at Pei Yuanxiu, who was sitting in front of me and had been silently watching me, his eyes were dark, like a bottomless deep pool, I couldn't see any light, nor any ups and downs, just so quietly, but I don't know how many undercurrents are surging below.

I took a deep breath and pinched the wedding card to my fingertips.

My ears finally regained my sense of hearing, and I just listened to the sound of their voices, which seemed to come from far, far away, and every word pierced into my heart so clearly.

"The eldest princess's wedding is a major event celebrated by all the people in Jiangnan, and my wife must be there."

I looked down at the red wedding card, and after a while, I smiled: "Indeed, it's a big deal." ”

“……”

"Congratulations to all the people."

“……”

"A great event."

I looked up, smiled, and said, "I'll definitely arrive." ”

When I finished saying this, Han Zitong and Han Ruoshi behind me were stunned for a moment, and looked at me in some surprise.

I looked at them all, and I came back to my senses a little, as a force on the Jinling side, I am Pei Yuanxiu's wife, and I should be very cautious about whether to accept this wedding card and participate in the happy event of the eldest princess and Yangzhou Mansion Yin, but I have already agreed to Wu Yanqiu just now.

For a while, I was a little at a loss.

At this moment, Pei Yuanxiu got up and walked towards us, I turned to him, my eyes looked a little dazed, and a little at a loss, at this time he reached out and took my somewhat cold hand, and I also felt that his palm was warm, and even slightly hot, which made me shiver.

He smiled and said, "It is indeed a great event. It's just that such a thing as sending a wedding card is a trivial matter, why did you let Lord Wu come over in person? ”

Wu Yanqiu said with a smile: "His Majesty the Emperor attaches great importance to the marriage of the eldest princess, and even mentioned that it would be great if you could be invited to attend this wedding, so I will come over for a trip in the next place." ”

"Speaking of which, it's hard work for Lord Wu."

"Don't dare, don't dare to say bitterness."

As we talked, we walked over, Pei Yuanxiu pulled me to sit beside him, and although Han Zitong's gaze was like a blade, she could only help her sister to the other side and sit down facing Wu Yanqiu.

After Pei Yuanxiu also sat down, he turned his head to look at me and smiled, "Are you okay?" ”

I was in a trance, but I still looked at him and smiled a little: "I'm fine." ”

He nodded.

When I raised my head, I saw that Wu Yanqiu was also looking at the two of us, and his eyes seemed to be looking for something. Pei Yuanxiu put one hand on the table as just now, and said with a faint smile: "My younger sister has been pampered since she was a child, and later experienced drastic changes, if you want to say that I am the most worried, she is the one who is the most worried." Finally, Yuanzhen also has a lifelong trust, which is a matter of my heart. ”

When he said "experiencing great changes", I clearly saw Wu Yanqiu's eyes flickering, but when I heard his words, I didn't seem to have any other consciousness, so I smiled and said: "The words of the prince are exactly the same as the words of the emperor. Every time His Majesty the Emperor talked about the marriage of the eldest princess with the empress mother, he was worried. ”

"Oh?" Pei Yuanxiu smiled: "What did he say? ”

"His Majesty the Emperor said -- people often say that the emperor's daughter is not worried about getting married, but he doesn't know that the heavenly family also has the difficulties of the heavenly family, and the emperor's daughter is not worried about marrying, but the emperor's sister is the most worried about marrying."

"Indeed, there are not many people who dare to be his brother-in-law."

When Wu Yanqiu heard this, he only laughed twice and did not answer.

"That Lord Liu, what do you think?"

When Wu Yanqiu heard this, he hesitated, looked at Pei Yuanxiu and said with a smile: "How can the lower official dare to evaluate the eldest princess's concubine?" ”

Pei Yuanxiu smiled faintly: "I'm not asking you to evaluate him, I just want to know what you think of him." ”

"This—"

These words, in fact, are really a little embarrassing Wu Yanqiu, he pondered for a long time, and the smiling expression on his face gradually converged, and after a while, he raised his head and said to Pei Yuan: "If Gongzi said that there are not many people in the world who dare to be the brother-in-law of His Majesty the Emperor, then I think about it, Lord Liu, is probably the only one." ”

Pei Yuanxiu raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, and subconsciously glanced at Wu Yanqiu.

And Wu Yanqiu smiled calmly.

He said this very vaguely, but when he thought about it, it seemed that he had already said it.

If there is still a person in the world who dares to marry Pei Yuanzhen, who has such a special status, only he Liu Qinghan.

If there is still a person in the world who dares to stay by the emperor's side with such a delicate identity, he is only Liu Qinghan.

Since he entered the office, he has been walking on the edge of power and life and death, like a person walking on a filament across a cliff, if he is not careful, he will fall to the bottom and fall to pieces.

And now, the only one who can be safe and sound is him Liu Qinghan.

Pei Yuanxiu also seemed to think about it, and said with a smile: "Lord Wu's words are shallow, but he is also thorough. I talked to him in Wangjiang Pavilion before, and then met in Xichuan, experienced all kinds of changes, this person is not afraid of danger, not surprised by changes, is a Dinghai god-like character. If anyone can marry my imperial sister and be her concubine, probably only this Lord Liu is really the only one. ”

Wu Yanqiu smiled and nodded yes.

"I hope he can be a good colt and be a good colt." As he spoke, Pei Yuanxiu turned his head to look at me and said with a smile: "Qingying, did you say yes?" ”

I smiled softly, "yes." ”

He looked at me, saw that I was just smiling, sitting quietly, and nodding his head at him gently.

I felt him look at me for a moment, as if trying to find something in my face, in my eyes, but no matter how I looked, I was only faint, and I didn't even say a single extra word, and I didn't seem to see anything, and he looked at me again, and turned his head away.

I sat there firmly, a few attendants came up to serve me and Han Ruoshi, Han Zitong tea, I picked it up and took a sip gently, who knew that the tea was too hot, I didn't pay attention, that big gulp swallowed, but I didn't know where the fire was burning, and where it was drunk.

Pei Yuanxiu was still chatting with Wu Yanqiu, talking about this marriage that attracted the attention of the world, and he suddenly asked: "I don't know what day the happy event will be." ”

These things should have been written in the wedding card, but his wedding card was placed on the table, next to the cup of hot tea, and just now his hand was on the table, and the sleeve of his shirt just blocked the wedding card. Seeing this scene, Wu Yanqiu didn't say anything, but replied businesslikely: "Three days later." ”

"Three days later? So fast? ”

"It's not too fast." Wu Yanqiu said with a smile: "It has been several years since the emperor appointed the marriage between the eldest princess and Lord Liu, but the eldest princess has always kept the filial piety period, and the marriage has been postponed to this day. ”

At this time, the sisters of the Han family, who had been sitting quietly and silently, glanced at each other, and Han Zitong said with a little complicated expression on his face: "However, I heard that the eldest princess is still observing the filial piety period, right?" ”

"Yes."

"And she-"

Without waiting for her words to finish, Wu Yanqiu had already said with a smile: "Even if officials are filial piety, there are times when they win affection. What's more, the eldest princess is filial piety to her mother, and misses the major events in life, wouldn't it make Shuyuan Niangniang feel at ease under Jiuquan, this is the great unfilial piety of a child. ”

This set of rhetoric is, of course, the best explanation for the emperor's love, although it can be seen that Han Zitong disagrees, but she does not pick any more thorns.

Pei Yuanxiu asked, "So, are all the wedding matters ready?" ”

"These days, the emperor has been busy with the happy events of the eldest princess, and all the big and small matters are ready."

……

I sat in my chair and listened calmly to their conversation, slowly looking at the wedding card in my hand.

It's a little glaringly red.

Originally......

It turns out that Pei Yuanhao has been staying in Yangzhou these days, not just to reunite with Miaoyan, and he is not completely worried about his safety, but because of the marriage of Liu Qinghan and Pei Yuanzhen!

Originally, the princess got married, and the high-ranking officials married wives, which is not that the emperor has to be present, but Pei Yuanzhen is different, this eldest princess is the sister of Pei Yuanchen, the king of Yun, who was eliminated by him in the battle for succession, and the people of the world, especially the southerners, have a lot of complaints about his seizure of the throne, plus several of his brothers walked away, died, and even carried a reputation for killing siblings, so now the only princess who remains in the royal family, her safety falls in the eyes of the world, everyone is staring at him, watching how he treats this only sibling, It is also in this situation that he is extraordinarily gracious to Pei Yuanzhen, even tolerant, Pei Yuanzhen's marriage is not only the face of the royal family, but also an article he made for the whole world to see!

No wonder, no wonder Yangzhou is so quiet these days.

No wonder that on the boat that day, when I asked Wen Fengxi about Liu Qinghan's injury, he only replied to me - "It will not affect the business".

It turns out that this is the right thing......

I see, so!

As for Liu Qinghan-

My fingers caressed the fiery wedding card, as if my fingers had touched a flame and reached into a sea of fire, and the burning, hot feeling made my breath tighten slightly.

His voice echoed in my ears, and what he had said.

"Sooner or later, I will be the concubine of the imperial court......"

"But, what I want to marry is the eldest princess, not the princess ......"

……

He was right, and he has been walking under such a fateful arrangement.

Now, he is about to go to the most important place in his destiny.

Speaking of which, he is such a person, he believes in his own destiny, he is incomparably firmer, I don't see the second person living more sober than him, knowing better than him what he wants, so in this case, then he has come to this point, it is indeed - seeking benevolence and benevolence.

I smiled for him.

Thinking of this, I smiled faintly at the constantly burning flame in my palm.

At this time, Pei Yuanxiu's soft call came from his ears: "Qingying...... Young babies? ”

I seemed to have woken up from the deepest dream, and I couldn't get back to my senses, so I turned my head to look at him: "Huh? ”

"What's wrong with you? We're talking about Wonjin's marriage. ”

"......" I looked at him, and then at Wu Yanqiu, who was sitting steadily, and immediately realized that I had just lost my mind, so I smiled softly: "I'm sorry, I was a little distracted just now." What are you talking about? ”

Wu Yanqiu said: "The prince is asking, where is the wedding banquet between the eldest princess and Lord Liu. ”

When I heard this, my spirit suddenly sank.

Compared with others, in fact, this is the most important, Pei Yuanhao came to invite Pei Yuanxiu in the next post, in fact, this matter was already very delicate, as a completely hostile force on both sides, Pei Yuanhao appeared on the dock of Jinling before, which has shocked everyone in the world, it can be regarded as one of the most dangerous situations since he ascended the throne of the Ninety-Five Supreme, and he came by himself, probably because of his audacity and recklessness, it will attract some people to do something to him.

Pei Yuanxiu's situation is even more special, no matter where the wedding banquet is set in Yangzhou, it is a tiger's den in Longtan for Pei Yuanxiu, and it is very likely that he will never return.

However, even though Pei Yuanxiu has left the royal family and become the leader of the rebellious forces in Jinling, the brother-sister relationship between him and Pei Yuanzhen has not been broken, and even when he invited Liu Qinghan to Wangjiang Pavilion to talk about it, he also used this identity to suppress Liu Qinghan.

This time, the wedding of Liu Qinghan and Pei Yuanzhen was just like the Wangjiang Pavilion back then.

This post has almost become a war letter.

That wedding banquet may be a real Hongmen banquet.

Whether Pei Yuanxiu goes or not, and how he goes, is the focus of attention of the world, and in this way, one thing is very important-

My face also brought a hint of nervousness, and I asked, "So, where is the wedding banquet located?" ”

This time, Wu Yanqiu did not answer.

He smiled and said: "Madam, son, the wedding card has been delivered to you, and the specific matters about the wedding banquet of the eldest princess and Lord Liu are clearly written on the wedding card. ”

“……”

"The lower official still has important things to do, so he will leave."

After finishing speaking, he had already stood up, and several of us didn't expect him to leave suddenly, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a while, but Pei Yuanxiu smiled and said, "Since Lord Wu has important things to do, then I won't leave you in vain." ”

"Childe is polite, farewell."

After saying that, he bowed to us, and when he turned to leave, I said, "Lord Wu." ”

He stopped and looked back at me, "What else does Madame command?" ”

I laughed and said, "Don't dare." Lord Wu is leaving, I'll send you off. ”

After speaking, I didn't wait for him to be polite to me, and turned to Pei Yuanxiu again: "I'll send him out." ”

He glanced at me, then at Wu Yanqiu, and said softly, "Don't go far." ”

"Don't worry, just go to the door." As I spoke, I smiled at him, and he smiled.

The two of us had already made up their minds, and Wu Yanqiu was not polite, so he nodded sideways and made way for me, and said, "Someone's wife." ”

I walked out with him, and when I went out, I looked sideways a little, and Han Ruoshi was walking to Pei Yuanxiu's side, as if she wanted to say something to him.

I just took one look and walked out.

The scenery in the courtyard is very good, when I walked out with Wu Yanqiu, I divided the flowers and willows all the way, and the skirt and clothes were stained with the fragrance and pollen of a lot of flowers, attracting bees and butterflies to chase us and keep flying.

Wu Yanqiu walked quietly beside me, until he walked up a long corridor, and he was about to reach the gate with another turn in front of him, and then he smiled and said: "Madame's daughter's body, I am afraid that I have something to say next." ”

I stopped.

It was very hot, but I didn't sweat a drop of sweat on my body, just a little prostration, and my face was extraordinarily pale.

I turned my head to look at him, Wu Yanqiu also looked at me, and frowned slightly: "Madam, your face is ugly, isn't it physical-"

I interrupted him: "Three days later, is it really the wedding of the eldest princess and Lord Liu?" ”

Wu Yanqiu smiled: "His Majesty the Emperor's words, how can there be a fake?" ”

My brows furrowed even deeper: "Why is the marriage of the eldest princess not in the capital, not in the palace, but in Yangzhou?" Lord Wu, what does it mean that His Majesty the Emperor opened this Chrysostom? ”

After speaking, I didn't wait for him to be polite to me, and turned to Pei Yuanxiu again: "I'll send him out." ”

He glanced at me, then at Wu Yanqiu, and said softly, "Don't go far." ”

"Don't worry, just go to the door." As I spoke, I smiled at him, and he smiled.

The two of us had already made up their minds, and Wu Yanqiu was not polite, so he nodded sideways and made way for me, and said, "Someone's wife." ”

I walked out with him, and when I went out, I looked sideways a little, and Han Ruoshi was walking to Pei Yuanxiu's side, as if she wanted to say something to him.

I just took one look and walked out.
