Chapter 14: Don't Think About Going Anywhere Today!
Chenghui County followed King Zhong to Longxi when he was a child, he grew up on horseback, Huo Zhun was also under the command of King Zhong back then, and King Zhong also matched the two, but unfortunately neither of them had this meaning, after a long time, they gave birth to a bit of brother and sister love.
Seeing that the county lord of Chenghui was about to walk to the inner room, Huo Zhun scolded coldly, "You stop!" ”
Lord Chenghui subconsciously stopped his steps, seeing that his brows were furrowed, and his expression was irritable, he suddenly smiled and teased casually, "Brother Wei is so taboo that others see the Jiaojiao inside, didn't he take away the wife of others?" ”
Lord Chenghui was just joking, and he didn't expect that he would be crooked and guess everything.
Huo Zhunyin's hand in his sleeve was clenched tightly, and he quietly glanced inside, warning Lord Chenghui, "She's not someone you can joke about!" After a pause, he added, "When the time comes, this king will introduce her to you, and now put away your curiosity." ”
The lord of Chenghui has a request for others, and compromises happily, "Okay, okay, I'm not curious...... What about Lu Tanhua? ”
"The king will introduce you to him, and as for the rest, the king cannot guarantee it."
"That's enough!" The county lord of Chenghui smiled brightly, very confident, "He is now heartbroken by the Pei family girl, under the light of this round of the county lord's blazing sun, he will definitely quickly forget the unhappiness of the past and be happy." ”
Huo Zhun's eyelids pressed slightly, and he turned the jade wrench on the thumb of his left hand. Chenghui would never have imagined that the Pei family girl in her mouth was in the middle at this time, and the distance between the two was not too far.
"That's okay, remember to send me a post in a few days, I will dress up, and when the time comes, I will surprise Lu Tanhua." The lord of Chenghui had long been accustomed to Huo Zhun's coldness and retination, and after explaining, he said goodbye to each other.
Seeing the county lord Chenghui leave, Huo Zhun raised his feet and walked to the inner room.
As far as his eyes went, he didn't see Pei Ruolan, thinking of the appearance of the lord of Chenghui who had just escaped his impulse, he walked behind the screen, and sure enough, he saw Pei Ruolan on the chaise longue next to the bed, although she tried her best to hide it, he could still see the loss in her eyes.
He looked at her condescendingly, and his tone was flat, "This king said that before Doctor Sun treats Pei Riwen's legs, you can regret it at any time." ”
Pei Ruolan didn't expect Huo Brigadier to hand over the initiative to her, her eyes showed bitterness, she was naturally moved to be able to leave him to regain her freedom and be with the person she liked, but her brother's leg had already become a responsibility that she could not shirk, as long as she thought that it was possible for him to stand up again, no matter how slim that hope was, she wanted to give it a try.
Thinking like this, she looked at Huo Zhun with resolute eyes, "I won't regret it." ”
At this moment, Huo Zhun finally couldn't help but ask, "Even if the price is to give up Lu Hongming?" ”
Pei Ruolan let out a soft "um", and her heart ached faintly, but she pretended not to care.
Huo Zhun walked up to her and sat down, looked into her eyes, and said in a deep voice, "Have you heard the story of the Queen Mother and Concubine Mingxian?" ”
"The two are twin sisters, when they first entered the palace, the queen mother was framed for being highly poisoned, and the concubine of Ming Xian did not hesitate to damage the prince in the abdomen in order to help the imperial doctor develop an antidote as soon as possible, and finally fell out of favor with the first emperor. But later, the Queen Mother gave birth to princes one after another and was made the queen, but Concubine Mingxian was jealous and framed the Queen Mother many times......"
Pei Ruolan pondered for a moment, raised her eyebrows and looked at her, "What does the prince want me?" If you don't want me to stay, why do you send someone to the northwest, and if you want me to stay, why do you tell the story of the Queen Mother and Concubine Mingxian in front of me? ”
Huo Zhun stared at her for a moment, and smiled, "It's just that I suddenly remembered, you don't want to listen to it." ”
Pei Ruolan thought that in the eyes of these royal families, there was no mercy between father, son, brother and sister, just interests and calculations. They don't understand what kinship is.
Through Pei Ruolan's expression, Huo Zhun could see that she didn't take his words to heart, and said "stupid" in her heart, she was sold and helped with a lot of money, but her face was not obvious.
That night, after Pei Ruolan took a bath, she lay down on the side of the bed against the wall, looking like she was rejecting people thousands of miles away, Huo Zhun looked at her back, not sure if her coldness was because of his suspicion of Pei Riwen, or because the lord of Chenghui was interested in Lu Hongming.
His gaze was too sharp, and if there was substance, Pei Ruolan's nerves tightened, and even her breathing became shallow.
After a long time, Huo Zhun reached out and held her shoulder to turn her around, lifted the broken hair on her forehead, and his eyes were dark, "You're not worried about Lu Hongming's empathy?" ”
Pei Ruolan's eyebrows frowned slightly, and she couldn't tell, whether it was because he was vainly speculating that his brother was annoyed with him more, or because he wanted to help the county lord Chenghui and Lu Hongming to protect the media to annoy him more, anyway, when he saw this face now, he felt upset.
Her silence seemed to Huo Zhun to be a tacit acquiescence, her eyes immediately turned cold, and a sneer came out of her throat, "People are lying on the king's couch, but they remember the man next to them in their hearts, you can really do it!" ”
When Pei Ruolan heard him say this, she also got angry, got up from the bed suddenly, stepped over his waist and was about to get off the ground.
Huo Zhun grabbed her ankle, got up and said, "Where are you going?" ”
Pei Ruolan glared at him fiercely, "You care about me!" ”
Huo Zhun's eyes were full of rampant possessiveness, "You can't go anywhere today!" ”
