Chapter Thirty-Eight: Thou Wilt Marry Me
The sky in Wanzhong City was always pale, and it was impossible to tell whether the sky was white with fluttering snow or shrouded in mist that could not disperse.
She was sitting in the room, her head lazily resting on her crossed arms, looking out the window at the snow.
It's the first time I've seen such a big snowfall.
I really want to build a snowman.
Just when she was bored, Wen Yeting suddenly appeared in front of the window, leaned out half of her body, and asked her with a light smile: "Caicai, what do you want?" Do you want to come out and play in the snow? I guess you Shuzhou shouldn't see such a situation. ”
For some reason, now when she sees Wen Yeting, she always subconsciously wants to dodge, but when she can't see him, she feels itchy and hard to scratch, which is really contradictory.
But if you play with your heart by yourself, it is difficult to recover. So he stepped into the snow without hesitation, and began to wonder whether to start building the body or head of the snowman.
Seeing her clumsy and rusty appearance, Wen Yeting unconsciously laughed, "Caicai, I finally found one that you are not good at." ”
She was depressed, her hands were red from the cold, she didn't pay attention to Wen Yeting, and began to pinch the snow on the ground one by one again, carefully piling it up.
Wen Yeting also accompanied her, handing her snow for a while, and looking for a few branches for a while. When it was finally time to finish, she stood up, stretched her waist, and shouted with joy, "It's done!" ”
"Eh," Wen Yeting waved his hand, "In our northern border, isn't this called finished?" ”
She didn't admit defeat either, "Then what else do you say?" ”
"Caicai, you turn around, you turn back when I call you, and then you will know what a real snowman is." With that, Wen Yeting stretched out his hand and tried to cover her eyes.
I don't know what the hell Wen Yeting is doing, she has never heard of this snowman being exquisite, but she still did it, turned around obediently, and blindfolded herself, only hearing the squeaking sound.
She waited impatiently and kept asking, "Okay, okay?" ”
"Alright, alright!" Wen Yeting's slightly nervous voice sounded behind her.
She turned around abruptly and saw that the snowman was no different from the one just now, but in front of the snowman, there was an extra line of upright and profound words, which read:
"Do you want to marry me?"
When she saw these words, she was stunned in place, but her little face involuntarily turned red, and she didn't know whether she was blushing by the scene in front of her, or being blown red by the wind in this cold weather.
Wen Yeting on the side was restless and didn't dare to come out, just staring at her blankly.
"Hanama, he's ...... you" She didn't know why she felt a little unspeakably sad, as if she had been wronged, but she couldn't find anyone to talk to, so she could only ask Hanama in her body for help.
For a long time, Hanama didn't respond, maybe she was also overwhelmed by this sudden love.
Wen Yeting actually couldn't hold it back, but seeing that she didn't move, she didn't speak for a long time, her lips were tightly closed, and she looked uneasy, but she understood a little. He simply picked up the branches in his hand that had not been put down, and erased the lines one by one.
But words can be erased, but nothing else can be erased.
He took a deep breath, "Caicai, I'm sorry, I was presumptuous. Let's go, take you to eat rock sugar gourd. ”
"Wait a minute." It was only at this time that the voice of the flower room sounded, "Miss Shi, please help me ask why." ”
"Why else, naturally it's because of Wen Yeting, he likes you." She felt that the question was a bit redundant, and that there was no need to ask obvious things.
Wen Yeting saw that she was in place, without moving, and turned around, "Cai Cai, if you don't want to see me now, it's okay, then I'll go back to the house first." ”
After saying that, Wen Yeting's footsteps turned to other places, and she quickly stopped him, "Why? ”
This question made Wen Yeting stunned, "Hmm...... Of course, it's because I pray that you will become my princess among the flowers, and you will be married to me forever. From the moment I left Anxiang, I decided that I wanted to work with you in one heart and one mind. ”
"Why now?" The voice of the flower was a little more stunned, "I haven't avenged my revenge, I ......"
She knew what the second half of Hanama's sentence was, "I'm not quite me yet." ”
At this time, looking at Wen Yeting in front of her, feeling the flowers in her body, and herself, the three of them seemed to be puppets played by fate, but they couldn't even say a word of bitterness.
"Why now?"
Wen Yeting lowered his eyes and was silent for a long time, and then replied firmly: "Because, today I made up my mind to seize the throne in order to protect you. ”
She sensed a hint of foreboding, "What does this mean?" ”
"Come into the house and say, your hands are frozen red." Wen Yeting said that he took off the robe he was wearing, patted off the snowflakes, and put them on her shoulders.
Wen Yeting lit the stove, heated the tea, and looked at the jumping flames, "I went into the palace to see my father, and he told me that the reason why he would cooperate with Wang Miao was not because Wang Miao was resourceful, but because he was afraid of the clan in Wang Miao's hands, and that clan was your clan." ”
She was shocked by this remark, it turned out that Wang Miao used the Hua clan as a bargaining chip in exchange for this hundred years of prosperity. "In other words, your father actually wants to get the clan like Wang Miao and let the clan work for him."
Wen Yeting nodded, feeling ashamed, and didn't dare to look up into her eyes, "Back then, when Yu and Qin were both fighting in Shuzhou, and when they were about to meet in a short battle, Wang Duan, that is, the governor of Shuzhou at that time, came to our camp alone to ask for a meeting. And he showed the power of the blood of the heirs, which aroused the interest of my grandfather, and wanted Wang Duan to give him this tribe, so that he could withdraw his troops immediately. Wang Duan was naturally unwilling, saying that he would rely on this tribe to survive. In order to prevent others from coveting it, he will let this tribe disappear, and if the time comes, he will even cut down the grass and eradicate the roots, and will not let this group fall into the hands of others. When my grandfather saw that he was so resolute, he asked him what he could do to get Yudu to retreat. Wang Duan explained that although he could not sacrifice this race, he could use the power of this race to act for Yudu. ”
After saying this, Wen Yeting raised his head slightly, glanced at her expression casually, took a deep breath, and continued: "First, the descendants of this ethnic group are in Shuzhou, and they can bless Shuzhou's abundant grains. Second, the people in this group are good at floral art and medicine, and the flowers of the world to the yin and yang are not a problem for them, and some of them also cultivate the art of rejuvenation of the wonderful hands, if it is Yudu, what malaria Shuzhou can also help; Thirdly, this ethnic group has a collection of foreign and foreign views, although they are all pills and poisons, but as long as they are used, they can also form a devastating appearance. For example, this broken intestine grass, Wang Duan has been in the bag, in the future can be sent to the capital of Yu on time, Yudu planted and then sold to the capital of Qin, is a profitable business, not only can gradually destroy the people of the capital of Qin, but also can use the wealth obtained to fill the treasury. ”
I see. This Shuzhou has been confusing the public between the two capitals as early as a hundred years ago, and Qindu has been in the whirlpool as early as then, but it is really in the same vein.
She frowned slightly, "So, does your father want you to find this group for him?" ”
"Well, he sent troops to attack Shuzhou, and this is the condition for Wang Miao's execution. I think about it, and I can't give your people to him, it will only lead you to repeat the mistakes of the past and start a new tragedy. Therefore, since Yu Du has to obtain this race, it is better for me to master it. When I ascend to the throne, how this race will be used by me is naturally up to me. And ......" Wen Yeting paused, raised his head and looked at her like a torch, "Moreover, if you become my princess, my father will have no reason to be cruel to you, at least you are already from Yudu, and you have this layer of protection." ”
After hearing these words, she knew it in her chest. It is precisely because Wen Yeting must obey his father's orders and obey the responsibility of guarding the flowers that Wang Miao will be in the hands of Wang Miao and start a war with Qindu.
Wen Yeting sighed, a little bitter and a little self-deprecating, "It is said that ten years of drinking ice is difficult to cool the blood, but who knows how long this obstacle is?" In the past, I didn't seek to be heard, and I didn't want to be famous. I only want to do my best to assist the virtuous monarch, protect the family and defend the country, help the world and save the people, who said that to be a big tree that can shelter from the wind and rain is not as good as a little red in the green bushes? Even if I have no name in this life, the mountains and rivers are my name. But I didn't expect that now I still fall into this world, make a knife, make a sword. ”
After saying that, he held her hand, and she didn't dodge it now, because she had already seen the unfathomable sadness in Wen Yeting's eyes, "I just want you to be like the wind, like flowers and mist, to be thousands, and not to be the vessel stained with copper stench and blood." ”
Wen Yeting was forced to ascend to the throne that everyone admired.
There is no way for him to betray his country.
There is no way to give up your lover.
She didn't know what to say, things seemed to be going according to the original trajectory, but in the middle of it, she felt that it would be nice if everything could be done again.
Back in her room, she reached out to catch a snowflake by the window, and the snowflake instantly melted in her palm and turned into a droplet. In a trance, she thought that she was like a drop of water that had melted and could never go back, but she was actually not as good as a thoughtless and soulless drop of water.
"Do you still want him to ascend to the throne now?"
"I don't know."
"Do you want to marry him now?"
"I want to, but do you want to?"
Do I think? She whispered it again, I don't think it matters...... She lowered her head slightly, one palm facing up, and wiped away the remaining traces of water, the tip of her nose was hot, and when she raised her eyes, she was full of tears, weaving a web crisscrossing her seemingly cold face.
"Miss Shi, I'm sorry for you."
"Actually, your wish has changed. Revenge naturally has to be avenged, but for you now, you want to have someone to accompany Wen Yeting. I hope Wen Yeting won't be heartbroken because you may disappear, I hope Wen Yeting will keep smiling when you are still conscious, and I hope Wen Yeting will never forget the flowers. ”
There was silence for a long time, and after a while, he said slowly, "If you can." ”
"However, to fulfill your wish, I must give up reincarnation and stay here as you."
"I'm sorry."
