"Bang bang bang!"

"Ningyu, open the door, even if there is a big event, open the door first, okay? If you cry and break your body, what should I do?"

In the evening, there was a rapid knock on the door in the inner courtyard, accompanied by Lin Fangda's anxious shouting and pleading.

An hour ago, Luo Ningyu ran out of the middle hall with red eyes, rushed into the boudoir, and refused to come out again. Only a cry of grief and indignation came from the room, which made Lin Fangda extremely anxious.

Lin Fangda had been begging outside the door for a long time, but there was no other response in the room except for Luo Ningyu's low sob.

All the food brought by the maidservant was turned away, and it had already become cold. Luo Ningyu locked himself in the room, not eating, drinking, or speaking, which made Lin Fangdaton, who didn't know the reason, feel powerless, he was bitter outside the door, and his mouth was dry, and he couldn't wait to say all the good things he could say in his life.

"Ning Yu, I'm Lin Fangda, I beg you, can you say anything?" Lin Fangda's eyebrows burned urgently, pacing back and forth in the corridor, and kept pleading, "Is it someone who bullied you?" You tell me, no matter who it is, I will definitely cut that person with a thousand knives, crush the bones and scatter ashes. I, Lin Fangda, swear to heaven that no matter what happens, as long as you say it, I will settle it for you! Don't cry anymore, open the door first, okay?"

For Lin Fangda's kind words and reassurance, the room was still crying again and again. Lin Fangda, who was helpless, was full of annoyance, and slammed his fist on his head a few times, and scolded angrily: "Lin Fangda, Lin Fangda! You are so useless, you can't even think of any way at a critical time, your head is worse than an elm pimple, what is it better to keep it?

"Don't cry, look at me like this, I'm ......" Lin Fang wanted to speak and stopped, muttering to himself in a voice as thin as mosquito silk, "I'm really uncomfortable......"

"Big brother?"

Liu Xunyi came from outside the courtyard, and happened to see Lin Fangda, who was behaving strangely, and couldn't help but be confused, and stepped forward to ask, "Big brother, what are you ......?"

"Xunyi, you've come just in time. Lin Fangda's face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly dragged him to the door. At the same time, he also shouted loudly into the room: "Ningyu, Xunyi is here, if you don't want to ignore me, then tell Xunyi! You open the door first, as long as I see that you are safe and sound, I will leave immediately." If you have anything to say, you can talk to Xunyi slowly. ”

"Big brother, you ......"

Liu Xunyi was about to refuse, but Lin Fangda interrupted him with a pleading gaze. Stretching out his hand and pointing to the room, he said anxiously: "I don't know what's going on, Ning Yu has been crying since the afternoon, and she hasn't even drunk saliva." ”

Liu Xunyi looked at the closed door suspiciously. At this moment, the crying in the room became more and more sad, Liu Xunyi couldn't help but be stunned, and said in surprise: "I was fine when I came back, why did I suddenly ......"

"Let her cry! There are some grievances, and it is better to cry out than to hold it in your heart. ”

Suddenly, Luo Hongxuan's helpless voice sounded from behind the two, Lin Fangda quickly turned around and hurriedly asked, "Hongxuan, what happened to Ning Yu?"

"You still don't know?" Luo Hongxuan looked at Liu Xunyi and Lin Fangda, who were at a loss, and explained, "The General's Mansion sent someone to propose marriage to the little sister, and the little sister is worried about this matter. ”

"What?" Before Luo Hongxuan's words fell, Lin Fang roared angrily, "Which general's mansion is proposing?

"How many generals' mansions are there in Luoyang?" Luo Hongxuan said bitterly, "It's the little Mongolian prince you offended in the Donghai Teahouse a few days ago, Wang Qingshu." Do you remember?"

"Wang Qingshu?" Liu Xunyi couldn't help but be stunned and hesitated, "What does Childe mean...... Wang Qingshu wants to marry Miss?"

Luo Hongxuan nodded and said: "Exactly, and this matter is still supervised by Wang Xutong himself, and the valuable dowry is now placed in the side hall." ”

"Dowry?" Lin Fang said angrily, "Could it be that the mansion master and lady agreed?"

"Not really. Luo Hongxuan shook his head and said.

"If you didn't agree, why did you keep their dowry?" asked Liu Xunyi.

"Because my father and mother didn't refuse. Luo Hongxuan smiled bitterly, "That's why my little sister cries so sadly." ”

"Why?" Lin Fangda was angry and anxious, his face turned red, and he scolded and scolded, "What kind of dog is Wang Qingshu? This person is despicable and shameless, and he is extremely obscene. He robbed the people's daughter in the Donghai Teahouse, we can all see this matter clearly, how can he be worthy of Ning Yu? Why didn't the mansion lord and his wife refuse directly? Do you really want to marry Ning Yu to that turtle king bastard?"

"Ahem...... ahem" Luo Hongxuan coughed lightly twice, and said with a straight face, "Lin Fangda, Wang Qingshu is the little prince of Mongolia after all, you don't have to speak disrespectfully, beware of trouble coming out of your mouth......"

"Lao Tzu doesn't care if he is the 'little prince' or the 'old prince', if he dares to fight the crooked idea of condensing, he is a turtle bastard!" Lin Fangda's fiery temper came up, and he had no scruples at all. With a wave of his hand, he interrupted Luo Hongxuan's words rather rudely, and scolded with his hands, "I think this kid has eaten the gall of a bear's heart and a leopard, and he is so cowardly!

After that, Lin Fangda had already walked towards the outside of the courtyard, Liu Xunyi hurriedly grabbed him and comforted him: "Big brother, don't be impatient, this matter is just wishful thinking on the part of Wang Qingshu, since the mansion master and his wife did not agree, then naturally they can't be counted." And don't you know how high Ning Yu's status is in the mansion master's heart? How could he push the pearl in his palm into the fire pit with his own hands? If the mansion lord doesn't directly refuse, he must have his concerns, so how can you insist on going your own way? If you poke out the big basket, won't it add trouble to the mansion master?"

"What Xun Yi said is good, Lin Fangda's bullish temper has to be changed. Luo Hongxuan said in a deep voice, "Now the relationship between the General's Mansion and our Xianwang Mansion is extremely delicate. The two sides are afraid of each other and contain each other, and it is not easy for my father to stabilize the situation, so he naturally has to be careful everywhere. At this time, the slightest carelessness will fall into a place of no return. ”

"If the catastrophe is gone, the catastrophe will not be recovered, so what?" Lin Fang retorted unconvinced, "Could it be that the Xianwang Mansion is still afraid that they will not succeed?

"To put it simply, once our relationship with the General's Mansion is stiff, sooner or later we will be the ones who will suffer. Luo Hongxuan said, "The so-called people don't fight with officials, Wang Xutong and Wang Qingshu are not terrible, and it doesn't matter if there is a general's mansion, but don't forget who is behind them? That is the Mongol Great Khan, and hundreds of thousands of murderous Mongol troops without blinking! Now that Luoyang City has been ruled by the Mongols, we are people under the roof, and we have to bow our heads." If they openly oppose them, even if they can enter the general's palace today, and succeed for a while, in a few days, 100,000 Mongol troops will surely come to the city. The Mongol army was brutal and bloodthirsty, and might slaughter the entire city in a fit of rage. At that time, it was not only the Xianwang Mansion that was unlucky, but also the hundreds of thousands of Li people in Luoyang City. ”

"Childe's words are good. Liu Xunyi's heart was shocked, and he nodded again and again, "If the lord of the mansion refuses to propose marriage, it is tantamount to slapping Wang Xutong's father and son in the face." After all, they are Mongolian nobles, and slapping them in the face is tantamount to slapping them in the face. Especially in the current troubled times, Wang Xutong may do something out of the ordinary in order to save face. ”

"How can you say that?" Lin Fangda's emotions slowly subsided, and he said with puzzled eyes, "There is such a thing as getting married...... Shouldn't you be willing to do it?"

"The matter of affection should be your love and my willingness, but this matter ......" Liu Xunyi was in a hurry, and suddenly changed his words and explained, "It's like the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, who decreed a marriage to an ordinary person, can this person refuse?"

"Of course this won't work...... Lin Fang didn't finish speaking, he suddenly realized, and nodded thoughtfully, "I understand, today's Luoyang City is the territory of the Mongols, and Wang Xutong's father and son are the emperor's relatives of Mongolia, so when they come to propose, it is equivalent to the Great Song Emperor ordering marriage." ”

Liu Xunyi smiled bitterly, "Although the power of the prince is not as good as that of the emperor, it is ...... That's pretty much it. ”

"What should I do then?" Lin Fangda's temper was a little bit tighter, and he shouted impatiently, "It is impossible to promise them, but if you refuse them, you will offend the Mongolian court and bring disaster to the Xianwang Mansion and even the people of Luoyang." Now that I can't advance or retreat, what should I do?"

Liu Xunyi asked Luo Hongxuan and said, "I don't know what the lord of the mansion means......"

"Dad has always avoided talking about this, and during this time, whenever anyone from the General's Mansion comes to visit, Dad will shirk it. Luo Hongxuan said helplessly, "In just a few days, Wang Xutong has sent someone to invite him three or four times, but my father has found an excuse to avoid it every time." Therefore, Wang Xutong has no way to do it in a short period of time, after all, the Xianwang Mansion is not trivial, no matter how anxious they are, they dare not use force, and they don't even dare to force it too tightly. ”

Liu Xunyi nodded and said: "It seems that the mansion master has not yet come up with a perfect plan, so he has to delay it again and again for the time being, neither agreeing nor refusing." As long as the mansion master avoided it, Wang Xutong would not dare to draw conclusions. Merely...... I hid for a while, but I couldn't hide for a lifetime. This matter must be resolved once and for all. ”

Looking at Liu Xunyi and Luo Hongxuan, who were full of bitterness, Lin Fangda's eyes suddenly turned fierce, and he gritted his teeth and asked in a low voice: "If I go and kill that little prince......

"Never!" Before Lin Fangda's words fell, Luo Hongxuan immediately made a decision, and hurriedly shouted, "Lin Fangda, I know that you have a reckless temperament, but you'd better not even think about this idea!"

"As long as you do it cleanly, no one will know about it......"

"No!" Luo Hongxuan's face sank, and he said with a straight face, "Lin Fangda, if you dare to act recklessly and unruly, beware that I will let my father punish you for thinking about it behind closed doors." ”

"Hongxuan, you ......"

"Squeak!"

Just when Liu Xunyi and the three of them were arguing word by word, the door suddenly opened, and Luo Ningyu, who had messy makeup and red and swollen eyes, slowly appeared in front of them.

In just a few hours, Luo Ningyu seemed to have experienced a few years, and the whole person hated to become a different person. The red and swollen eyes, the sobbing nose, the cheeks mixed with tears and sweat, red as the sunset reflecting the moon, the green silk is messy, and the dress is slightly embarrassed.

"Whispering ......"

"Little Sister ......"

Facing the sudden appearance of Luo Ningyu, Lin Fangda and Luo Hongxuan subconsciously stopped arguing, and the three of them looked at the pear blossoms with rain in a daze.

From the moment Luo Ningyu opened the door, her eyes kept falling on Liu Xunyi, and she seemed to ignore Lin Fangda and Luo Hongxuan.

Several people confronted each other quite awkwardly, and after a long silence, Luo Ningyu suddenly spoke: "Do you want me to marry Wang Qingshu?"

"Of course I don't want to!" Lin Fangda subconsciously grabbed the words, "Ning Yu, don't worry......"

"What about you?" Luo Ningyu didn't pay attention to Lin Fangda's explanation, Chu Chu Xing's eyes stared at Liu Xunyi tightly, biting his red lips lightly, with a pitiful look of holding back his crying, and asked softly, "Do you want to?"

Hearing this, Liu Xunyi was slightly stunned. At this time, the first reaction in his heart was not Luo Ningyu's extraordinary feelings for him, but thinking that once the Xian Wangfu and the General's Mansion were married, Luo Tianjin would inevitably become a vassal of the Mongolian court, so it would be a fatal blow to the plans of the Great Song Dynasty and the Eastern Mansion.

"I'm asking you!" Luo Ningyu couldn't help but be annoyed when she saw Liu Xunyi's thoughtful look, and said coquettishly, "Do you still have to think about this problem?"

Liu Xunyi's expression was straight, and he replied categorically: "Ning Yu, you must not marry Wang Qingshu!"

Hearing Liu Xunyi's answer, Luo Ningyu, who was full of grievances, finally couldn't hold back the tears in her eyes and let them slide down her cheeks. However, her tears at the moment were mixed with endless relief and joy.

For a while, the mixed emotions of joy and sorrow made Luo Ningyu cry and laugh, which looked strange and ridiculous.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, Luo Ningyu closed the door again, but this time there was no longer a mournful cry in the room, replaced by Luo Ningyu's resentful and joyful admonition.

"Liu Xunyi, you must always remember what you just said!"
