In the afternoon, the sun shines through the gaps in the leaves and spills on the ground, creating patches of light. Xi Yu and Dongfang Hong walked into a small teahouse on the side of the street and found a secluded corner to sit down.

They ordered some food and tea, and chatted while eating. Dongfanghong told Xi Yu mysteriously: "Actually, there is a way to get Wan'er, it depends on whether you are willing or not." ”

Xi Yu's heart moved, and he hurriedly asked, "What's the way?" ”

Dongfang Hong leaned into Xi Yu's ear and said softly: "Just have a drunken mess, raw rice and cooked rice." When the time comes, Wan'er will be your person. ”

Xi Yu listened, and there was a hesitant look on his face. He felt that it was not good to do this, and it was not fair to Wan'er.

Seeing this, Dongfang Hong smiled and said, "You just don't have the courage!" Wan'er also has a good impression of you, as long as you take the initiative, won't this be done? ”

Xi Yu was silent for a moment, but still shook his head: "I don't want to use this method to get Wan'er's heart." I hope she genuinely likes me, not for anything else. ”

Dongfang Hong sighed and said, "You are too upright!" However, Wan'er is indeed a good girl, and you should take advantage of the opportunity. ”

Xi Yu nodded, and he had already made a decision in his heart. He wants to use his sincerity to impress Wan'er, rather than relying on means to force it.

When night falls, the room is filled with silence. Xi Yu was lying on Xi Shi's bed, but his mood was indignant.

Xi Shi sensed his emotions and asked with concern, "Husband, what's wrong with you?" Why the sullenness? ”

Xi Yu sighed and told Wan'er's story. He poured out his troubles and confusions, questioning whether he was really a bad man.

Xi Shi listened quietly, her eyes revealing a hint of understanding and tolerance.

She said softly, "Husband, it's not your fault. Wan'er's affairs are indeed troublesome, but emotional matters are already complicated. However, we must also abide by the system of filial piety. ”

Xi Shi's words made Xi Yu feel a little relieved, and he understood that he was not alone.

In this particular period, they all need to follow some rules and systems.

Xi Yu nodded and looked at Xi Shi gratefully.

Her support and understanding made him feel a little less burdened in his heart.

On this night, the conversation between Xi Yu and Xi Shi was full of concern and understanding.

A few days later, the envoys who had gone out to envoy the princes returned one after another, and they brought exciting news: the princes everywhere they went were willing to recognize Xiyu's status as the sovereign and expressed their willingness to make a transition with Xiyu.

Xi Yu was overjoyed when he heard the good news.

He immediately gathered the soldiers and began to arrange the aftermath.

Xi Yu announced with a spring breeze on his face: "Ladies and gentlemen, this mission has been a great success. All the princes are willing to cooperate with us, and we are about to usher in a new era! ”

Everyone echoed and cheered.

Xi Yu then ordered: "Send someone to carry out the handover with the princes immediately to ensure that everything goes smoothly."

As the order was given, everyone fell into a busy atmosphere.

The envoys moved one after another, and discussed and arranged in detail with the representatives of the various princes.

In this process, Xi Yu's mood was particularly happy.

He secretly made up his mind that when the Central Plains became his own territory, he must celebrate it to commend those who worked hard for reunification.

At this time, the sunlight sprinkled on Xi Yu through the window, as if he was covered with a layer of brilliance.

He looks forward to the future with confidence and looks forward to his vision becoming a reality.

On this day, Dongfang Hong came to Xi Yu's residence with great interest, with a smile on his face.

Seeing this, Xi Yu asked curiously, "Dongfang Hong, why are you so happy today?" Is anything good happening? ”

Dongfang Hong smiled mysteriously, leaned closer to Xi Yu and whispered, "I have thought of a way to let you get Wan'er." ”

Xi Yu's eyes lit up, and he asked eagerly, "What way?" Tell me! But don't come up with a bad idea like last time. ”

Dongfang Hong lowered his voice and said, "Didn't the ancient times all believe that the ancestors would make dreams? We can start here. I'm here to pretend to be Wan'er's grandfather and ask her to marry you quickly. ”

Xi Yu listened to it and thought it was a good idea.

He nodded and said to Dongfanghong: "This method is good, but how do we implement it?" ”

Dongfang Hong said: "We can find a suitable opportunity, and then, if I pretend to be her grandfather, you will take the opportunity to confess to her, maybe she will be moved by your sincerity." ”

Xi Yu was secretly happy in his heart and decided to act according to Dongfang Hong's plan. They discussed the details and were ready to act as soon as possible.

Early the next morning, Dongfanghong began his operation according to the plan. He dressed up like a mad old man.

He was dressed in shabby clothes, his hair was disheveled, and his face was smeared with some dust, which made people think that he was a little strange at a glance.

Dongfang Hong came to the bustling street, sometimes crying, sometimes smirking, and there were words in his mouth.

Passers-by gathered around him, looking at him curiously.

Dongfanghong called himself Wan'er's grandfather, shouting loudly that he missed Wan'er very much.

Someone whispered, "This is a ghost." ”

Dongfanghong's appearance caused a commotion, and people began to talk about it one after another.

The news quickly spread through the streets and alleys, attracting more people's attention.

Soon after, Dongfang Hong came to the theater.

He continued to pretend to be crazy and stupid, crying and laughing in the house, which made people scratch their heads.

After Xi Yu "learned" about this, he was "puzzled" and immediately found Wan'er.

As soon as Dongfang Hong saw Wan'er, he said to her as Wan'er's grandfather: "Wan'er, do you know how much grandpa misses you under Jiuquan." Grandpa has a wish, I hope you can marry the king as soon as possible, so that grandpa can feel at ease! There was a hint of sadness and eagerness in his tone.

After Wan'er heard this, she couldn't help but shed tears. She believed in Dongfang Hong's words.

Because she has had a deep relationship with her grandfather since she was a child, Dongfang Hong's words and expression at this time made her seem to really see her grandfather.

At this time, people outside the mansion were also talking about it, and this strange story quickly spread and became a hot topic in the city.

Xi Yu looked at Wan'er's sad appearance, and a trace of pity swelled up in her heart.

So, Xi Yu walked up to Wan'er and gently comforted her.

Xi Yu said: "Wan'er, although all this seems bizarre, we might as well listen to Grandpa's wishes." My feelings for you are sincere, and I am willing to accompany you through your life. His gaze was firm and gentle, which made Wan'er feel a trace of warmth.

Wan'er raised her teary eyes and looked at Xi Yu.

Her heart was full of contradictions and confusion, but her grandfather's words echoed in her ears again.

Eventually, she nodded her head and expressed her willingness to consider Xi Yu's marriage proposal.

This sudden development surprised people, and the relationship between Wan'er and Xi Yu became the focus of attention.

Dongfanghong's plan appears to have achieved initial success.

As time went on, the story spread more and more widely in the city.

However, Dongfang Hong felt very depressed, he sacrificed himself for the sake of drama, making people laugh at him, but how can his love be solved?

Wen Xuan, whom he likes, is always willing to regard himself as a friend, but doesn't that prove that people will never be interested in him?

He felt depressed, why was Xi Yu able to get everything, but he couldn't get anything?

A few days later, Xi Yu took the soldiers and Wan'er to Wan'er's grandfather's grave.

They placed flowers, incense candles and offerings to pay their respects to Grandpa Wan'er.

Xi Yu said solemnly: "Wan'er, since the old man has a spirit and has given instructions for you and me to get married as soon as possible, then we must obey." I will arrange our marriage as soon as possible to put your grandfather at ease. ”

When Xi Yu said this, he felt a little uncomfortable, because he was deceiving.

He also silently said to Wan'er's grandfather, old man, I love Wan'er too much, and besides, you also want to hand it over to me, so I made a decision, I hope you don't blame.

Wan'er listened to Xi Yu's words, and tears rolled in her eyes.

She remembered her grandfather's love for her when he was alive, and also remembered her grandfather's teachings.

Xi Yu looked at Wan'er and felt a little uneasy.

He realizes that he cheated on Wan'er, but he also knows that it was to get her.

He secretly swore that he would treat Wan'er well and make her happy.

Wan'er nodded lightly and said, "Okay, since grandpa has a spirit, then we will follow his wishes." ”

Xi Yu was overjoyed, and hurriedly said, "Okay, then let's go back and prepare for the marriage." ”

Wan'er nodded and didn't say anything more.

Xi Yu looked at Wan'er, and her heart was full of joy.

He was finally on the verge of getting Wan'er, but he also knew that this was just the beginning.

He must treat Wan'er well and make her truly fall in love with him.

Back in the house, Xi Yu immediately began to prepare for the wedding.

He invited the best tailors and craftsmen to make a wedding dress for Wan'er.

In an office of the academy, Wen Xuan stared at Dongfang Hong angrily and asked him, "Say, is it your ghost that you did about the ghost?" ”

Dongfang Hong did not panic in the face of Wen Xuan's questioning, but showed a smug smile and admitted: "I did it, how?" ”

Seeing him confess so frankly, Wen Xuan was even more angry, accusing him and saying, "As a teacher, you don't study hard, but you come to engage in these crooked things, it's really not doing your job!" Also, you actually deceived Wan'er with Xi Yu, which is simply aiding and abetting! ”

Dongfang Hong heard Wen Xuan's accusation, but he didn't think so, but laughed instead, feeling that Wen Xuan had gone too far.

Seeing his attitude, Wen Xuan was even more angry, and said, "Don't think it's a trivial matter, you not only hurt Wan'er by doing this, but also deceived everyone." Don't you know the consequences of doing so? ”

Dongfang Hong listened, but said disapprerovantly: "Isn't it just a joke, what's the big deal." Besides, didn't Wan'er finally agree to Xi Yu's marriage proposal? This shows that they are destined. Three years of filial piety basically didn't work in our time, why are you so stubborn"?

Wen Xuan's face was even more confused, because she didn't like Xi Yu to get so many women.

Dongfang Hong naturally understood what she meant.

"Even if you don't like it, can you change everything? So, don't you think it's better than the beauty of adults"?

Dongfanghong believes that this time he solved the problem for Xi Yu, and Xi Yu will be more grateful to himself.

Wen Xuan saw that he was so unrepentant, and his heart was even more angry.

She said, "You stop quibbling, it's not right for you to do that. You have to apologize to Wan'er and admit your mistakes to everyone. ”

Dongfang Hong saw Wenxuan's resolute attitude, and he also knew that he was at a loss.

He said, "Okay, I'll apologize to Wan'er in the future." ”

"What do you mean later? You have to be now".

"No, wouldn't it be a loss of face if it were now."

Wen Xuan was relieved to see that he had finally realized his mistake.

Then in the future, you don't have to worry about him anymore.

He said, "Well, now that you've recognized your mistake, I'm not going to pursue it." I hope you can teach well in the future and stop doing these boring things. ”

Dongfanghong nodded and said, "I know, I'll pay attention." ”

Wen Xuan looked at Dongfang Hong, although he was still a little dissatisfied in his heart, he no longer cared.

After saying that, Wen Xuan turned around and left here.

Dongfang Hong looked at her back and grimaced.

In the Xiyu Mansion, Ouyang Linlin and Sun Shangxiang were sitting in the pavilion in the garden, drinking tea and chatting.

Ouyang Linlin accidentally mentioned the recent uproar of the ghost upper body incident.

She thinks that all this is a conspiracy between Xi Yu and Dongfanghong.

Sun Shangxiang didn't think so, she felt that this matter might be true.

"Sister Ouyang, are you thinking too much?

Ouyang Linlin shook her head with a smile and reminded Sun Shangxiang not to be too naïve, this was obviously a scam.

Although Sun Shangxiang also had some doubts in her heart, she didn't want to dwell too much on this matter.

She feels that whatever the truth is, it doesn't matter, and it's important not to reveal it.

Ouyang Linlin saw Sun Shangxiang's thoughts, and she said: "It seems that the husband really likes Wan'er, so he came up with such a way to get her." ”

Sun Shangxiang nodded, she could also feel that Xi Yu's feelings for Wan'er were not ordinary.

"Maybe you're telling the truth."

The two were silent for a while, and Sun Shangxiang suddenly said: "Actually, if what you say is true, I also admire my husband's courage." For the sake of the person he likes, he can do whatever it takes. ”

Ouyang Linlin smiled and said, "Yes, the power of love is really great. ”

When Wan'er overheard the conversation between Ouyang Linlin and Sun Shangxiang in the garden, her heart was full of doubts and uneasiness.

She originally came to them to learn how to play cards, but she didn't expect to hear such a thing.

She couldn't believe her ears, so she decided to go to Xi Yu to ask for clarification.

Wan'er hurried to Xi Yu's room and knocked on the door. Xi Yu heard the voice, opened the door, and saw Wan'er standing at the door with an angry face.

Xi Yu asked with some surprise, "Wan'er, what's wrong with you?" Why are you so angry? ”

Wan'er didn't answer his question, but asked directly: "Husband, some people say that it was grandpa who fell in Dongfanghong's body and asked me to marry you, is it true?" ”

When Xi Yu heard her question, his heart was shocked, he didn't expect Wan'er to know about it so quickly.

He looked at Wan'er with some embarrassment, not knowing how to answer.

Wan'er saw that he didn't speak, and she became even more angry.

She said, "Why don't you speak?" Is all this true? Are you really cheating on me? ”

"Who the hell are you listening to"?

"You don't care who said it, I'll ask you, is this true?"

Seeing Wan'er so excited, Xi Yu knew that she couldn't hide it anymore.

He sighed and said, "Well, since you know everything, then I'll tell you." Actually, all this was arranged by me and Dongfanghong. We know you've been sad since your grandfather died, so we came up with this idea to hopefully make you happy. And I don't want to wait another three years, I want to marry you right away. ”

Wan'er listened to his words, and her heart was full of disappointment and anger.

She said, "How can you deceive me like this? Do you know how much it hurts me to do this? ”

Xi Yu hurriedly explained: "Wan'er, listen to me, I really like you." I know there's something wrong with what I'm doing, but I just want you to be happy. ”

Wan'er listened to his words, and her heart became even more angry.

She said, "Do you think this will make me happy?" You're only going to make me more miserable by doing that. ”

After speaking, Wan'er turned around and left Xi Yu's room.

Xi Yu stood at the door, looking at Wan'er's departing back, full of remorse and self-blame.

After a while, Xi Yu gently pushed the door open and walked into Wan'er's room.

He saw Wan'er sitting on the edge of the bed, with her back to him, as if she was sulking.

Xi Yu cautiously walked to Wan'er's side, squatted down, and said softly: "Wan'er, I'm sorry, I know I shouldn't have deceived you, but I really like you." ”

Wan'er still didn't look back, just said coldly: "Do you think I will still believe you?" ”

Xi Yu sighed softly and said, "Wan'er, I know you're angry now, but think about it, everyone outside already knows the news that we're getting married, and if we don't get married, then your grandfather's spirit in the sky won't rest in peace." ”

When Wan'er heard this, her heart was a little shaken.

She knew that what Xi Yu said made sense.

Xi Yu saw that Wan'er was a little shaken, so she continued: "Wan'er, I really like you. I'll treat you well and make you happy. ”

When Wan'er heard this, she was a little moved.

She turned around, looked at Xi Yu, and said, "Okay, since that's the case, then let's get married." ”

When Xi Yu heard this, he was overjoyed, and he hurriedly said, "Okay, thank you Wan'er, I will treat you well." ”

Wan'er nodded and said, "Okay, you go out, I want to be alone for a while." ”

Although Xi Yu was a little worried about Wan'er, he still respected Wan'er's wishes and withdrew from the room. He closed the door gently, his heart filled with joy and anticipation.

He actually understands that Wan'er is also eager to combine with him. (End of chapter)
