Even though I couldn't breathe in pain, I still had to behave as usual in front of my father and my sister.

It's just that this incident has not yet hit me over, and another one has quietly come.

The head of the palace is the heir of the child, and the draft is ordered.

Zhihua's sister is past her age, so she doesn't need to enter the palace. It's just that Yuqing's girl is within the draft age.

The news of the draft just came out, not to mention the Murong family, but even the Luo family was worried about it.

With Yuqing's temperament, I'm afraid I won't be able to live for a few days if I enter the palace. Even if there is the Murong family as a backer, not necessarily everyone has to rely on her temperament.

What's more, sometimes a prominent backer happens to be a deadly poison.

On the third day after the news came down, General Murong made a bold decision. He wants to send Yuqing away and escape from the draft.

The reason is that Yuqing suddenly fell ill and needed to go out to seek medical treatment.

In fact, we all know that this reason is too far-fetched. Blatant disobedience to the will of the Divine Providence is also overly obvious.

But Yuqing is General Murong's baby bump, and he is naturally reluctant to send her to the land of no return. Therefore, even at the risk of annihilation, General Murong still chose to bully the king.

……

When Yuqing left, my mouth was very hard.

Always in front of Yu Sheng and Zhihua's sister, saying that Yu Qing is a trouble. Without her, I don't know how quiet the future will be.

When Yusheng and Sister Zhihua saw me like this, they wanted to help Yuqing say something good. When you say something to me, you can't help but feel a little awkward.

Especially Sister Zhihua, I always thought that I was specially unable to get along with the Murong family, so I said such inconsequential words in front of Yu Sheng.

But they didn't know that when I watched Yuqing leave, I was somewhat lost.

Yes, she's like a chirping oriole. Without her, life would indeed be very quiet.

But......

It's going to be lonely, right?

On the first day she left the capital, I began to think about her.

Xu is the status of the Murong family in the court, which is deeply rooted. So even if Yuqing left the capital, there was no movement on the emperor's side.

In order to stabilize the situation, his father decided to put the marriage of Zhihua's sister and Yusheng on the agenda. intends to let the Murong family and the Luo family marry as soon as possible, firstly, it is to fulfill the wishes of the two children, and secondly, it is also for the sake of the family.

I knew my father's mind early on, but I never thought it would come so early. I didn't expect that my father would ask me to quietly help my sister prepare a dowry.

He also specially told me that the dowry should be generous and not perfunctory.

After making his decision, my father said that he couldn't live with me.

It is said that in a family, it has always been the elder brother who gets married first, and the younger brothers and sisters below him discuss marriage. But now, it's going to rank me behind my sister who knows painting.

To be honest, it is very irrational to discuss marriage with the Murong family at this time.

After all, the Murong family's disobedience to the holy will to send Yuqing away was so blatant. Although the emperor is not to blame now, he can't tell what will happen in the future.

At such a time, my father wants to marry my sister Zhihua, and he is undoubtedly prepared to share weal and woe.

……

Although, the elders of the two families have already identified with each other. But on the other side of the Murong family, for the time being, they have not yet found a suitable opportunity to come to the door to propose.

Therefore, I can only do it quietly to help my sister prepare the dowry.

Often, I watched my sister make some female celebrities in the yard every day, play the piano and learn calligraphy, and lived a quiet life. will think about how happy she should be when she gets married.

While enduring the heartache, I carefully helped her choose the dowry. On the surface, everything is as usual, but in private, he is subjected to endless torture and suffering.

She's my sister, and I can't trap her.

No matter how much I spoil her and get used to her, she will marry after all......

However, the ordeal did not last a few days. Before the dowry I gave to my sister was ready, there was a decree from the queen mother in the palace.

This decree did not bring joy to everyone. On the contrary, for the Luo family and the Murong family, it was a bolt from the blue.

"The queen mother's decree: The emperor has been on the throne for many years, the harem is empty, and there are no heirs for the time being. I heard that the Luo family of the palace university has a female orchid heart, who is beautiful and wise, gentle and quiet, and empathetic, and has never been married.

Today, the Luo family's sister-in-law, Miss Luo Zhihua, is specially invited to the palace to accompany you. Canonized as the five grades of glory, given the title: Xian. Chin this! ”

When the father-in-law in the palace read the edict clearly word by word, it was not only me who could not be believed? Even in his father's eyes, there was a moment of powerlessness.

How can it be? How did things get to this point!

Sister Zhihua is obviously past the age of the draft, and she has not heard any turmoil in the palace in the past, saying that she wants to summon Sister Zhihua into the palace.

Now, how can it be so sudden?

……

Zhihua's younger sister's face was pale and her eyes were empty. After coming back to his senses, he cried loudly in the main hall for the first time, regardless of his appearance.

The father did not comfort his heart and soul as usual, but shook his head uncontrollably. In self-talk, I felt helpless.

I watched my sister crying breathlessly, tears like pearls, dripping uncontrollably. A heart is as if it has been crushed and suffocated.

I gritted my teeth and helped my sister up, and said, "Don't be afraid of painting!" With me here, I will definitely not let you be wronged. Pack your bags and I'll take you away tonight! ”

"Let's go?" She raised her head in a daze, and smiled bitterly, "The whole world is not the king's land, where can I go?" ”

Where to go?

Yes, the whole world is not the king's land. No matter where I go with my sister, there is a possibility that I will be caught.

We are not Yuqing, and we may not have the same luck as her.

However, I know this, but I still don't want to let fate decide the rest of my sister's youth.

So, I gritted my teeth and said, "Painting, let's go wherever you want!" Don't be afraid, I'll be with you always. ”

"Let's go, what should I do with the more than 100 lives in Luofu? Brother Su, my father dragged you and me to grow up alone, and we can't put him in the realm of disloyalty and injustice. ”

After that, I saw Sister Zhihua wipe a handful of tears, as if the woman who cried loudly just now was not her, "Since the decree has been issued, I will enter the palace!" ”

I was shocked, but there was nothing I could do.

At this moment, I hated my uselessness. I also hated her very much, I didn't protect her well.

Such a quiet and elegant woman, I made her cry after all......

But what can we do if the decree has been made?

Left however, there are two options.

Or obey the mandate of heaven and go to the palace! Either ignore the lives of the Luo family and flee the capital.

Of these two choices, although I wanted to take my sister Zhihua away at all costs, I couldn't do it after all, and abandoned the entire Luo family in the water and fire.

So, I struggled for a long time and said, "If you want to enter the palace, I will accompany you." ”

I'll be with you.

In this life, no matter where you are, I will accompany you.

I'll be with you.

You're doing well, I'll laugh with you. If you have a bad life, I will share it with you.

I'll be with you.

In order to make your life worry-free, in order to let you enter that deep palace without feeling afraid.

When Sister Zhihua heard this, she was stunned at first.

Then, he said bitterly, "Okay." ”

All right......

What an open-minded and relaxed word.

But I know she's just perfunctory.

……

On the second day after Yi's decree, the Empress Dowager assigned an aunt to the mansion to teach her sister the court etiquette.

Since then, my father and I have been completely separated from my sister Zhihua.

Three meals a day, father and son are never allowed to see each other again. If you really need to discuss something with your sister, you have to choose a good time, inform your aunt, and only after getting permission can you go over to say goodbye.

……

After about a month of such days, Aunt Jiaoyin finally left Luofu and returned to the palace.

And this also means that Sister Zhihua is going to enter the palace.

On the first day of Zhihua's sister entering the palace, relatives can get together briefly and say goodbye.

My father and I had dinner with my sister Zhihua. Then, after a long and sour chat, she separated her father and left me alone.

"Brother Su" Zhihua sister looked at me and said, "I will enter the palace tomorrow, and everything in the family will be for you." ”

After that, I heard her say, "Father's greatest wish in this life is that you and I will live well, find a person as soon as possible, and start a family." Now that I am a woman in the palace, Brother Su, you must also hurry up. ”

"Painting...... "My voice was a little hoarse, "don't worry, I will take care of my father." ”

"I don't mean anything else, I just think my father is old and I don't want him to worry too much." Sister Zhihua stared at me and continued, "Although I haven't told you my thoughts for so many years, you are extremely smart, and you must know it.

My father is bent on fulfilling me and Brother Yusheng, and hopes that I can live happily in this life. Just a moment before Yi Zhi came down, he also said that he had already talked to the Murong family about my marriage with Brother Yusheng.

So, this holy decree of the Queen Mother is a blow to me, and to my father, why not? Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, General Murong would rather take such a big risk to send her away in order to prevent Qing'er from entering the palace. How could my father be willing to let me go there?

Brother Su, that's what I've done in my life. Whether you live well or not in the palace in the future is fate. But you...... Don't make my father sad again.

You're nineteen, and it's good if you can find someone who makes your heart flutter in the past few years. But if you can't, I'll be selfish once in the painting. I hope you can find a virtuous person to enter the house and inherit the Luo family. It's also for me to honor my father, okay? ”

Zhihua's sister's words are already crying.

I couldn't bear to disagree with her at this time, so I had to say, "Don't worry, give me another three years." If I don't find someone I love again in three years, then my father will arrange my marriage. ”

Hearing this, Sister Zhihua hurriedly nodded, "In this way, I am relieved." ”

After that, he said, "Brother Su, before entering the palace...... I have something I want to ask you for. ”

"Between our brothers and sisters, do we still need to use the word please?" When I saw her so polite, my heart felt as if it had been cut by a knife, and nothing was right.

"I'm going to enter the palace tomorrow, I'm afraid I won't have a chance to say a word or two to Brother Yusheng in this life." Sister Zhihua said as she took out a letter from her sleeve, "This letter, please also ask Brother Su to forward it to Brother Yusheng for me."

It's also considered ...... It's also a ......."

Zhihua's sister's last words, I have never had the courage to say it. But I knew better than anyone what she wanted to say.

Scold!

It can be regarded as an end to their love for each other.

……

On the day when Zhihua's sister entered the palace, it was raining lightly.

In the early morning, the carriage in the house carried Zhihua's sister, and Xiang Yang Handong headed towards the Forbidden City.

My father and I stood in the drizzle, watching the carriage keep moving away from us, and my heart was very uncomfortable.

When he returned home, his father locked himself in his study. Even breakfast, no one was sent in.

I, on the other hand, went back inside the house and put the . Playing with the letter left by her sister.。

The letter was not sealed, but I never had the courage to open it.

Although, I was extremely curious about the contents.

……

The next day, I went to the General's Mansion early.

When he came to the General's Mansion, Yu Sheng was still practicing martial arts in the courtyard.

Since Yuqing left the capital, my sister and I have rarely come over. I'm fine, I'm a man. It's just that she knows that her sister is her daughter's house in the end, and without Yuqing as a pretense, she can't find a reason to go out.

Therefore, the four inseparable have become the three non-gatherings, and there is very little time to see each other.

When he saw me coming, he was very surprised, and hurriedly put away the sword in his hand, "Brother Su!" What are you doing here? ”

With that, he subconsciously looked behind me, looking for the shadow of his longing and twilight.

"She won't be able to come today." When I saw him like this, I couldn't help but explain.

It's just that......

Why can't you come today? She won't be able to come in the future.

Yu Sheng was stunned for a moment, and then scratched his head with a smile. That look is the shyness I've never seen before" Also, at this time, it's really better for us not to meet. ”

After that, he said again, "Come to think of it, I haven't seen her for three months, I don't know how she is doing?" ”

I opened my mouth, but suddenly I was dumbfounded.

Okay, it's still not good, I don't count if I say it.

Seeing that I didn't speak, Yu Sheng said to himself, "Brother Su, is there something for you to convey to me this time?" Otherwise, you would not have come to me early in the morning. ”

After that, he said with a smile, "This girl has been introverted since she was a child, but sometimes she is also very anxious." There is also Brother Lao Su who told the painting that his father is already preparing for the dowry. Once you have chosen a day, you will ......"

"Yu Sheng" I looked at Yu Sheng's radiant appearance, and I felt a little proud and a little unbearable.

is proud, because I can't get a woman, and you Murong Yusheng can't get it either. I can't bear it, because he is full of joy, and he is too naïve.

"Brother Su?" After Yu Sheng was interrupted by me, he finally noticed my abnormality, "What's wrong with you today?" ”
