The three of them drank all afternoon, and it was not until the evening that Lei Jinfang returned to the Jing'an Hou Mansion in a daze.

As soon as he arrived home, the housekeeper stepped forward to support him, "Master Hou, the princess came to the mansion in the afternoon and has been waiting in the hall." ”

When Lei Jin heard this, he immediately woke up most of the wine, shook off the housekeeper, and walked quickly to the hall.

"Phantom Cloud!"

In the hall, Phantom Cloud was wiping his tears alone and feeling sad, when he heard Lei Jin's voice, he immediately got up, greeted him with tears in his eyes, and threw himself into Lei Jin's arms.

Seeing this, Lei Jin's heart sank again, and he couldn't care about the warmth in his arms, and hurriedly asked, "What happened?" ”

Phantom Cloud wiped his tears and said, "My father was called to the palace by His Majesty in the morning, and it turned out that he was discussing to give me a marriage to Pu Zhen......"

"What? Pu Zhen?! ”

Lei Jin was shocked.

As early as when he left the Six Princes' Mansion, he had a premonition that his marriage with Phantom Cloud might change, and he planned to take the initiative to propose to the Six Princes in the next two days.

But I never expected that it was still a step too late.

What's more, His Majesty is going to give Phantom Cloud to Pu Zhen in marriage!

Pu Zhen's father died at the hands of his father back then!

It can be said that there has long been a hatred between the two for killing their father.

Although at that time both sides were their own masters, and they died on the battlefield.

But who knows if Pu Zhen will always hold a grudge against this matter!

What's more, the relationship between him and Phantom Cloud has always been stable, isn't it clear to Pu Zhen himself?

Why didn't he mention this matter before, but when he and Phantom Cloud were talking about marriage, they did not insert a lever?

Although the two sides have grievances of the previous generation, since Pu Zhen returned to Great Xia, the two sides are ministers in the same palace, so naturally they can't see each other.

Therefore, Pu Zhen's move is hard to ensure that he is not deliberately embarrassing him!

Thinking of this, Lei Jin calmed down and asked calmly, "Phantom Cloud, what do you think?" ”

"What can I do?"

Phantom Cloud was obviously at a loss, and his expression was sad, "I didn't expect that my father and His Majesty would let me marry Pu Zhen......"

"Historically, the marriage of royal daughters has not been up to them."

"On the surface, but in the end, every royal daughter is not dedicated to politics?"

"Because I have long been aware of this, I have been wearing men's clothes since I was a child, and I want to be more free between marriages."

"I was reconciled to the Turks twice, and I have long been disheartened with my life's events and left them at my mercy."

"But in the end, fortunately, it was resolved by Lu An."

"I thought we could come together, but who would have thought that His Majesty would still marry me to Pu Zhen......"

Hearing that Phantom Cloud was not satisfied with such an arrangement, Lei Jin was secretly happy in his heart, "Since you don't want to, you can make it clear to Your Majesty!" ”

"Your Majesty is a generation of Ming Jun, and you have never objected to us being together, as long as you say what is in your heart, I believe that Your Majesty will definitely fulfill us."

Phantom Cloud smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Of course I thought about it, but ...... Alas! ”

"When I was in the palace, my father wanted to intercede for me, but in the end he couldn't help but say it."

"Your Majesty urgently needs a general to help him suppress the Turkic cavalry in the north, so that he can concentrate all his efforts on recovering the land south of the Yangtze River."

"And the most suitable candidate is Pu Zhen and the Black Armor Army under his command."

"In order to appease Pu Zhen, His Majesty thought of giving marriage."

"Father said that although His Majesty said to ask for our opinion, in fact, His Majesty has made up his mind, and he just went through the process."

"Your Majesty is young, but he has always been moody."

"If you upset him, not only will dissuasion be ineffective and will not help the final result, but it will also cause him to be dissatisfied, and the consequences may be even more serious."

"Besides, as a royal daughter, I can't make my own decisions about marriage."

"Since he can help His Majesty achieve great things, how can my father be too opposed?"

When Lei Jin heard this, he shouted unwillingly, "But even so, we can't sacrifice our feelings!" ”

"Isn't it just to defend the barren north and defend against the Turks?"

"Pu Zhen can, so can I Lei Jin!"

"Phantom Cloud, otherwise let me go and plead to Your Majesty, and take the initiative to ask Yingzhen to pacify Northern Xinjiang!"

Phantom Cloud hurriedly grabbed him, "Don't!" ”

"It's useless!"

"As you said, Your Majesty has long known about the relationship between me and you, and if it wasn't for careful consideration, you would never have easily told my father about it."

"Since Your Majesty has opened his mouth, no matter how much he does, it will not help, so forget it, right?"

"Phantom Cloud, you...... You can't bear to give up our relationship so much? Seeing that Phantom Cloud seemed to have the intention of yielding, Lei Jin's heart ached sharply and he took a step back.

Huanyun's face was sad, "As a royal daughter, from the moment I was born, I was destined to be unable to make my marriage autonomous, what if I didn't obey?" ”

"If you don't want to, why don't you resist!"

"Resistance?" Phantom Cloud blinked his big beautiful eyes and looked at Lei Jin in disbelief, "You mean...... Rebel? ”

"No!"

"Never!"

"Lei Jin, you and the old marquis have always been loyal to the court, and we must not leave the old marquis infamous through the ages because of the personal relationship between our children and daughters!"

"For the Phantom Cloud...... It's not worth it! ”

Lei Jin shook his head, "Phantom Cloud, you misunderstood, I didn't say that I wanted to rebel, besides, after all, it was His Majesty who helped me avenge my father, and Lei Jin naturally can't forget this kindness." ”

"I mean...... We can elope. ”

"Elopement?" Hearing this, a flash of brightness flashed in Phantom Cloud's eyes.

"That's right!"

Noticing the change in Phantom Cloud's demeanor, Lei Jin plucked up his courage and said, "Phantom Cloud, you also know that my fourth brother Lu An is the crown prince of the former dynasty. ”

"And Jiangnan Chuyin is the subordinate of the fourth brother, and he must have the ambition to restore the great cadres."

"Between Your Majesty and the fourth brother, sooner or later there will be a battle!"

"Your Majesty and I have the grace of helping each other for revenge, and the fourth brother and I have a sense of righteousness."

"Once Your Majesty moves his army south, it is inevitable that he will meet the fourth brother."

"I'm going to have to face it both ways."

"That's why I've been thinking about quitting for a long time."

"Now Your Majesty is going to marry you again, if you don't want to, why don't we elope?"

"But...... I'm a royal daughter—"

Before Phantom Cloud finished speaking, Lei Jin waved his hand domineeringly, "Phantom Cloud, as long as you still have me in your heart, then listen to me!" ”

"Although you are a royal daughter, you have been kissed twice, and you have obeyed without complaint."

"As a royal daughter, you've done enough!"

"I don't owe anything to the royal family anymore!"

"It's time to plan for the rest of your life."

After some rhetoric, he finally moved the heart of Phantom Cloud.

"However, such a big matter as elopement, with your identity and me, it is related to Pu Zhen, my father and His Majesty, etc., in case it is not handled well......"

Seeing that Phantom Cloud finally accepted his proposal, Lei Jin was overjoyed in his heart, and slapped his chest, "As long as you are willing to accept my opinion, the next matter will be handed over to me, and I promise that the sixth prince will not be implicated!" ”
