Not?

I immediately frowned and looked at him puzzled: "You, didn't you come here for Jin Yao's business?" ”

"It's for her, but it's not for my marriage to her."

"How?"

"Madam, it's impossible to marry Miss Jin Yao in the future."

My heart sank.

At this moment, a bitterness almost immediately swelled up in my heart, listening to what he had just said, and remembering that when Yang Jinyao talked about him, the eyes were brighter than Xingzi, but Wu Yanqiu told me that it was impossible for him to marry Yang Jinyao.

I asked, "Why?" ”

A wry smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Madame said it herself just now, Miss Jin Yao, but there is no gentleness and submissiveness. ”

“……”

"Speaking of calm and introverted, Lan Xinhui is temperamental, and Miss Yang doesn't seem to have too many such qualities."

“……”

"Yanqiu doesn't look down on her, nor does she look down on people, it's just that Mrs. Jin Yao will also understand that Miss Jin Yao is absolutely impossible to be a competent lady, and it is even possible to be as commanded as Mrs. Yang."

“……”

I didn't speak, and I was really speechless.

Wu Yanqiu's words are right, although Yang Jinyao is smart and likable, but when it comes to some necessary elements for people in the sea of eunuchs, she almost has nothing, her temperament is impatient and perverse, if she is not out of the cabinet, she is only worried about her parents, but once she is out of the cabinet, the trouble is her husband's family. And Wu Yanqiu is definitely not a person who can put too much energy into his own backyard.

In the final analysis, what Wu Yanqiu needs is a gentle and obedient wife who can take care of him and let him have no worries, and Yang Jinyao is definitely not the best choice.

And before, the reason why Wu Yanqiu did not refuse that family business was to consider the status of the Yang family and his future in the officialdom, but once the emperor became interested in Yang Jinyao, then he could no longer choose this girl.

I couldn't help but frown.

Although I don't like his utilitarian attitude very much, I can't deny that he is sensible.

And being an official, unlike other livelihoods, a good wife may not be able to help, but an unsuitable wife may lead to destruction.

I sighed lightly, and said to Wu Yanqiu again: "Since this is the case, then you have already rejected the family affair with Jin Yao, this matter is already a foregone conclusion, why are you-"

Before I finished speaking, Wu Yanqiu cut off my words, but lowered his voice and said softly: "Madame, can't you see that she is not even a contemptible wife, how can she enter the palace, be the emperor's concubine, and deal with so many ladies in the harem." ”

I chuckled and looked at him with some consternation.

"What do you mean—"

"If Miss Jin Yao really enters the palace, I'm afraid there will be no way to live."

“……！”

I see, so.

He did come for Yang Jinyao, but not for himself to tie the knot with her, but to hope that Yang Jinyao would not enter the palace and become the emperor's concubine even if he did not marry him.

Because, compared to the official wife who is a big official, her character is even more unsuitable for surviving in the harem.

At this moment, my brow twisted into a pimple, because I knew that he was right.

This is also before, when I realized that Pei Yuanhao became interested in her and wanted to summon her into the palace as a concubine, I was always worried about it, she was a pampered official lady, she had no scheming, and she had no ability to calculate people's hearts, if she wanted her to survive in a place where everyone only spoke three points and never threw away a piece of heart, she couldn't survive at all!

He looked very worried, and after a while, he said softly: "There are all the ghosts on the grave, why add another stick of incense?" ”

I couldn't help but feel a surge in my heart, this time, he really made me a little impressed, I knew that this time he came to me, he really took some risks, because the emperor wanted to summon Yang Jinyao into the palace, and he pitied this girl, even if he had no fate with her, he couldn't bear to see such a free beating soul annihilated in the smoke of the harem.

I looked at him for a while, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that Lord Wu still has such affection for Jin Yao. ”

"I don't dare to be affectionate," he said softly, "but I was moved with a little compassion. ”

"This is already rare."

He raised his eyes to look at me: "I only hope that Madame's prescription can really save her." ”

“……”

This time, I fell silent.

If his purpose is to hope to tie the knot with Yang Jinyao, maybe things are simpler, but his purpose has nothing to do with himself, he just hopes that Yang Jinyao will not enter the palace, this is obviously going to do it against Pei Yuanhao, let me prescribe medicine, this is really embarrassing for me.

Seeing that I was silent, and even a few wrinkles appeared slightly in the center of his eyebrows, he looked at me carefully: "Madam? Is it a contemptible lady? ”

I smiled wryly: "With all due respect, it is. ”

"That's—"

"But," I added, "not necessarily, I can't think of it." ”

When he heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he tightened the armrests on both sides of the chair with both hands, and hurriedly asked, "What can be done?" ”

I have always seen him calm and introverted, this is the first time I have seen him so angry, but for some reason there is a faint sadness, he likes Yang Jinyao, although his depiction of his future wife is like me, but when he met the eyes as bright as the stars, he met the free and unrestrained soul, and even he himself was attracted, but even so, he couldn't let himself go, or rather, he refused to let go of himself.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but ask tentatively: "Lord Wu, let me ask again, are you really unwilling to marry Miss Jin Yao?" ”

His expression froze.

The face that was originally plain and clean was a little paler at this moment, and the warmth brought by the hot tea just now was swept away by the cold wind through the hall at this moment, and I saw his hands gripping the armrests of the chair hard, and his knuckles were white.

After a long time, he said slowly: "I can't hide it, in fact, Miss Jin Yao came to my house yesterday to look for me. ”

I was stunned: "She went to find you?" Why? ”

"I don't know, but guess, it's probably for that."

"So, what did she tell you?"

"She didn't say anything."

"Why?"

"I called it sick and asked the porter to keep the door closed and didn't let her in."

My heart sank suddenly, and I looked at him in amazement: "Why? ”

Wu Yanqiu lowered his head, but just for that moment, I seemed to see a trace of imperceptible pain in his eyes: "There is no reason, it's just that the contemptible person knows very well what he wants and what he can't want." ”

“……”

"Yesterday, Miss Jin Yao failed to enter the contemptible door, and in the future, it will be the same."

“……”

"If Mrs. still wants to ask, the contemptible person has handled so many official affairs and made so many decisions, but there have been times when he has made mistakes, have he ever regretted it, and the contemptible person still has to say that the saint still has a mistake, and the contemptible person has done something wrong, and he will definitely regret it."

“……”

"But it is much better for one person to regret it than for a group of people to regret it in the future."

“……”

I looked at him and didn't speak, although there was not much expression on his face, but at this moment, my heart was really turned upside down, and there were huge waves. There has never been a person who has impressed me again and again in just a short period of time. What he said and did, as he said, would be wrong and he would definitely regret it, but I couldn't think of a word to refute him.

An inexplicable pain welled up in my heart.

This time, I was silent for a long time, and finally sighed: "I know. ”

“……”

"If this qiē can really only be like this, then I really hope that, as Lord Wu said, you are the only one who regrets it."

He looked at me and smiled faintly: "Hopefully, as I wish." ”

I smiled too, but even if I couldn't see my face, I could feel the bitterness in my smile, and after a while, I calmed down the faint sadness in my heart and said to him, "The way I said is to go and ask for two people." ”

"Who?"

"One of them, of course, is the Queen's Mother."

He was startled, raised his head to look at me, and I said calmly: "Two days ago, the queen mother came out of the palace to the Yang Mansion to see me, about you and Miss Jin Yao, I have already talked to her, but at that time I didn't know Lord Wu's thoughts, I just told her Miss Jin Yao's thoughts, if Lord Wu hopes that this matter will take a turn, I still have to go to the queen mother." ”

“……”

"After all, she is the closest person to the emperor, and some things, if she can have an impact on the emperor, the damage will be minimized."

He was silent for a moment and nodded slightly: "Contemptible people understand." So, what about one more person? ”

"The queen mother, you can go and find it, as for this person, Lord Wu, who came to the door today to ask for a prescription, I can't just move my mouth, I will find this person."

When he heard this, a joy immediately appeared on his face, and he hurriedly got up and bowed his hand to me: "Thank you, Mrs. Gaoyi." ”

I smiled faintly: "Lord Wu's move is also high-minded. ”

Although I said this, he felt guilty after all, and there was a faint pain, and when he talked to me again, he was a little absent-minded, and I also knew that without further ado, he must be hoping to pass on the news to Chang Qing immediately and solve this matter.

So, after a while, he was gone.

Before leaving, I escorted him to the door, and he took a few steps, but as if he could not be relieved after all, he suddenly turned back to look at me: "Madam, the person you are talking about - can there really be a way?" ”
