Xunzhou New Life Chapter 23 Pale face and white hair
Zhou Ranmiao responded to Xia Jingsheng's request to bow down to the whole country, he still agreed to send Xia Jingyan back to Mingxia first, and then send the princess and relatives to the team in Mingxia, he wanted a dignified wedding, and he didn't want Xia Jingyan to bear the infamy of being robbed for the rest of his life.
Xia Jingyan will accompany Zhou Ranmiao to the supreme peak of the Zhou Kingdom, she is the queen of the fair.
It's just that before Xia Jingyan left, Zhou Ranmiao still pulled her and threatened and intimidated her in her ear: "If you dare to leave and don't come back, I will lead the troops to fight and rob you back, I don't care about any reputation!" Xia Jingyan didn't dare to run away anymore.
A life of sadness and bitterness, hesitation can not be forgotten.
Picking up Xia Jingyan, as soon as Xia Jingsheng saw the Zhou army retreating, he immediately ordered the army to set off and return to Yingdu, and the Xia army fled in a mighty manner. But Zhou Ranmiao was not panicked, he had already thought of a countermeasure.
Yingdu City
"Come on, send the princess back to Lihe Palace!" As soon as Xia Jingsheng entered the palace gate, he ordered the humane.
Xia Jingyan could only raise her eyes and watch, she didn't say anything, she knew that Xia Jingsheng was angry, contradicted, advised, useless, her imperial brother was the emperor, he would always figure it out, the country is the most important, the society is the most important, and a princess is nothing.
Immediately, someone came to invite Xia Jingyan, and the eunuch headed by him bowed down and said tremblingly: "Please also invite the princess to get on the sedan chair." ”
Xia Jingyan had no choice but to sigh, got into the sedan chair with the support of Lu Chaoya, and returned to Lihe Palace.
Throughout the day, Xia Jingxuan, Xia Jingchen, Yan Yu, Lu Chaoya, and Mo Shuyao were all guarding Xia Jingyan, and they only said: "The family reunion is not happy, and the sorrowful sigh is full of courtyards." ”
Only Xia Jingsheng, he only stayed at the door, but he never dared to enter the door, he beat the sister he raised single-handedly, even in the eyes of the world, he is such a good brother I am afraid that there is only one in this world, Xia Jingsheng's heart is also full of guilt.
Xia Jingsheng defeated Yuan Jun, but he couldn't defeat Zhou Jun, how could he be willing to let Xia Jingyan stay thousands of miles away from him? In that way, Xia Jingyan's joys, sorrows, and sorrows, how did he, as an elder brother, know? How can you rest assured? Besides, he also beat Xia Jingyan on impulse, Xia Jingyan is afraid that he will die very much, right?
In the evening, Xia Jingsheng dismissed everyone and visited Xia Jingyan alone.
"Why is this time coming, the imperial brother is tired, so he should rest early." Xia Jingyan said as he sat up from the couch.
Xia Jingsheng didn't answer, he just stepped forward by himself, his eyes were full of love and pity, many times more than usual, Xia Jingyan was a little uncomfortable when he saw it, Xia Jingsheng reached out to touch Xia Jingyan's cheek.
"What's wrong with the imperial brother......" What Xia Jingyan was most afraid of was this unnatural softness, and she avoided it.
"Yan'er......" Xia Jingsheng still leaned up, and suddenly hugged Xia Jingyan tightly into his arms, "Yan'er, does it still hurt......
Xia Jingyan was still surprised, why did Xia Jingsheng do this, it turned out that he still cared about that palm.
"It doesn't hurt for a long time, the imperial brother doesn't have to care......" Xia Jingyan said softly.
"Yan'er, don't call me Brother Huang! Call my brother ......"
Xia Jingyan was confused, she let go of Xia Jingsheng, and looked puzzled, "Is there any difference between the imperial brother and the elder brother?" ”
Xia Jingsheng smiled bitterly, and put Xia Jingyan back into his arms, as if he was reluctant to let go, he said softly: "The word imperial brother is too far. ”
Brother Huang? Far? Also, with the word "emperor", it is said that he is talking about his sister, and he is also a monarch and minister, Zhou Ranmiao's self-proclaimed brother to Zhou Ranxi is not his brother, he is too far away.
"Yes, brother." Xia Jingyan recognized this name, and he really felt a lot more comfortable.
When he was very young, Xia Jingyan called Xia Jingsheng his brother, and later became sensible, only to know that he changed his name to Brother Wang, and now this title has been changed back, or it is good, just like returning to the carefree when he was a child.
"Yan'er, my brother has wronged you, my brother is wrong, I am very wrong, my brother promises that I will never do it again, don't be angry with my brother......" Xia Jingsheng's words were full of tears.
In the end, it was Xia Jingyan's turn to coax his brother, but he was a little at a loss, but that overwhelmed expression made Xia Jingsheng laugh.
"Brother's little fool!" Xia Jingsheng smiled and patted Xia Jingyan's head.
Xia Jingyan could only laugh, stupid is stupid, there is nothing wrong with being a little fool of my brother.
"Brother, don't go......" Xia Jingyan took Xia Jingsheng's hand and played tricks.
"Such a big girl, I don't want to sleep with my brother." Xia Jingsheng pinched Xia Jingyan's face, and there was a smile on his face.
"Just want it! It's still small! Xia Jingyan still held Xia Jingsheng's hand, she thought, let herself play it again, this time, it's just Xia Jingsheng's sister.
Tomorrow will only be the princess of Mingxia, and there will be no such opportunity again.
"Alright, little villain." Xia Jingsheng asked Xia Jingyan to lie down on the couch and helped her cover the quilt, "Sleep, my brother is here to accompany you." ”
There is no resentment of the family and country in the dream, there is no army in the dream, how good it would be if this life is always in the dream.
But the princess can't dream forever.
"Your Royal Highness! Your Highness the Princess! It was Li Qian's voice, Xia Jingyan woke up from the chaos.
"Father-in-law Li, what is the matter with looking for the princess early in the morning?" It was Lu Chaoya's voice again.
"Back to the county lord's mother, Your Majesty quarreled with the ministers in the court! The ministers wanted to send the princess to make peace, but His Majesty did not allow it, and he had to fight again, and he would never hand over the princess
Lord, he also said that if he is entangled again, he will kill all the princesses and bury them! Li Qian hurriedly said: "The old minister just ran out, and asked the princess to go and persuade him!" ”
"Princess Ben knows." Xia Jingyan's voice came from the room.
Li Qian immediately bowed down, and after a while, Xia Jingyan pushed open the door in plain white bedclothes.
"Father-in-law Li, can you please go and bring the wedding clothes that Zhongqing gave to this princess and her relatives, and this princess wears them, so that she can go to see the imperial brother."
"Yes."
Xia Jingyan agreed, and Li Qian breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly went to the Shangyi Bureau to get the wedding dress.
It's good that the princess is "sensible".
When the wedding dress arrived, Lu Chaoya and Shen'er reluctantly changed Xia Jingyan's clothes, this marriage is thousands of miles away.
It's a pity that Xia Jingyan is a sensible princess.
Speaking in the court, Xia Jingyan could only hide in front of the door and cry.
"Please also ask Your Majesty not to harm the people of Mingxia for the sake of the princess alone!"
"Who is not a child of Your Majesty, please send the princess and her relatives!"
"Presumptuous! If you dare to say more, you will all be dragged out and cut! ”
"Your Majesty is the Nine Clans of the Ministers, and the ministers will also say! The princess is the queen when she marries Nanjiang, and she is the wife of Emperor Zhou, so she can't bear the princess, besides, Emperor Zhou is already a concubine when he is still in the next summer! The princess and her lover are well known! The princess can't stand it! ”
"Your Majesty, as the queen, under one person, above ten thousand, and the princess has the backing of Ming Xia, how dare Nanjiang embarrass the princess?!"
"You will say that, but it is not your heart and soul that you are married to Nanjiang! Mrs. Li, if it was your daughter who married Nanjiang, would you still say that! I single-handedly brought up Yan'er, when have I ever left her for so many years! Besides, if I just wanted Yan'er to be the queen, I wouldn't have had to rebel in the first place! With the protection of my Xia family, Emperor Yuan can be patient! ”
"Your Majesty! I can't afford war anymore next summer!! ”
"If it hadn't been for Yan'er leading the army, Ming Xia would have died early! It's your turn to gossip about you bunch of shit! I want to be dignified next summer, and let a princess go on the expedition! I really don't know the connection
What's the use of keeping you! actually hid behind the female stream and secretly survived, and in the end, he had to exchange the female stream and his relatives for his own safety! ”
"Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty! Think twice......"
"Needless to say!"
The old ministers all bowed their heads and sighed, but they all had nothing to say, and what Xia Jingsheng said was indeed the truth.
At the beginning, it was protected by the princess, and now the princess has to be sent to kiss.
But how could the old ministers be so willing to go to war again? No matter who would think about exchanging a person's sacrifice for the safety of a country at this time, how could they really think about Xia Jingyan? Even if Xia Jingyan was tortured to death by Zhou Ranmiao in the past, so what? It was nothing more than a cry in front of the mourning hall.
Fortunately, the princess is sensible.
Dressed in red clothes into the court, the horses and women are also unforgettable.
Xia Jingyan entered the court in a wedding dress according to what the old ministers thought, bowed down, and invited himself to marry Nanjiang.
"Yan'er ......" Xia Jingsheng's heart cranded, "Brother can fight for you......"
"Brother, let's do it, I have never paid anything for Mingxia, and what qualifications do I have to let Mingxia give everything for me."
There was silence in the court, waiting with bated breath for Xia Jingsheng's decision.
"Yan'er, you went to Nanjiang alone...... For a month, you stayed by Zhou Ranmiao's side for a month, aren't you bitter enough! If you get married, it's a lifetime......"
Xia Jingsheng couldn't help but lose his honor in front of the palace, just like worshipping Zhou Zhanmao, he didn't care about his face for Xia Jingyan's sake for a long time, but the sky still wanted to pull Xia Jingyan away from him and pull him to hell.
Xia Jingyan smiled bitterly, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed.
"I am willing to exchange the body of one person for eternal peace."
The old ministers smiled happily and knelt down to support Xia Jingyan, "The princess understands the righteousness, and the ministers wish the princess and Emperor Zhou and his wife to work together for a hundred years!" ”
Xia Jingyan smiled again, smiled helplessly, and shook his head while laughing.
Sarcasm, really sarcasm.
Xia Jingsheng was speechless for a while, not knowing what to say or say.
The Xia family sacrificed everything for Dongjiang, this is really a sacrifice of everything, he sighed, stepped forward slowly, helped Xia Jingyan up, but didn't say anything, and walked out of the hall again.
Xia Jingyan looked at Xia Jingsheng's back, so "old", so vicissitudes.
My brother is old, with a pale face and gray hair.
