That night, Liu Dapao tossed and turned.

For two or three days in a row, I had a bit of a loss of appetite, and I couldn't help but think about these questions over and over in my mind.

In two days, he took the initiative to go to Murong Yan four times, but he was never rejected. Murong Yan did not act petty or make moves with him, nor did he perform oral gymnastics on him.

On the contrary, he came out as soon as he was asked to come out, listened to what was said, hummed to show his cooperation while listening, and left as soon as he had finished talking. He remained calm throughout the whole process.

Really, he had known her for such a long time and he had never seen her act like this, but it made him feel uncomfortable. He wanted to say something to her, but he really didn't know how to say it.

He even went to see Mrs. Murong. The old lady still looked like an amiable and very nice old lady. She didn't express any opinions on the matter between the two of them. She only said:

"You young people, you make your own decisions. Yan'er has been rebellious since she was a child, and her father can't control her. The so-called parents' orders may not be able to restrain her."

"Not to mention you, your parents died young, and you fought hard all the way to become the king of Yangzhou. In the territory of Yangzhou, you don't have to give face to anyone. You can marry if you want to, and if you don't want to, don't.

, it turns out that no one can influence your decision, let alone listen to anyone's arrangements."

"Oh~, I really envy you, especially you. Back then, his grandfather and I were also in-laws from two families. In fact, there was a young man I liked when I was young. It's a pity that I can't compare to you. Although we talk about

It’s not like you can do whatever you want, but at least if you don’t want to do something, almost no one in this world can force you to do it.”

But what he said was even more embarrassing for Liu Dapao.

Three days passed quickly, and Fu Deyi came to visit as promised. Liu Dapao ordered someone to invite him to the living room, and he was really shocked when he appeared later.

I saw that this girl Fu was not wearing regular clothes at this time, but a set of embroidered gold silk robes that seemed to be imitated from the Han Dynasty. However, it looked like they were made by famous artists. She was thin where she should be thin, and plump where she should be.

The makeup and jewelry she wore were even more elegant and luxurious, and combined with her already beautiful face, she actually felt a bit like a fairy descending to earth.

How about talking about three queens from one family? Apart from Fu Yanqing's personal power, the family's genes are indeed good, and the girls from the Fu family are indeed beautiful.

Watching Liu Dapao couldn't help but be stunned when they met for the second time. Although his heart was not full of emotions, at least he had an idea and fell in love at first sight.

"The girl is wearing this..."

Fu Deyi said with a smile: "Marriage is an important matter, which should be the order of the parents. The marriage between you and me is also related to Xiongzhou and Yangzhou, two important towns in the north and south. They say they control the world.

pass."

"However, the elders in the family died early, and the other uncles also have important positions. The little girl has a family mission, so she has to come alone from thousands of miles away to discuss with Mr. Xiong in person. Therefore, she wants to be as dignified as possible.

"

As he spoke, Fu Deyi raised his sleeves and said with a smile: "My robe is based on the Han Dynasty's robe. It is thinner and slimmer. The gold thread embroidered on it is just like this."

It took a dozen top embroiderers to weave day and night, and it took a year to complete."

Liu Dapao was also confused. He could tell that the clothes were not simple, but he really couldn't understand why the clothes were of such great origin. He couldn't help but ask: "Is this clothes so labor-intensive? How much would it cost if it were sold?"

It’s money.”

"Money? Mr. Xiong, you are joking. No matter how much I say this, these clothes are imitations. Generally speaking, such styles will not appear in the market. If our Fu family had not achieved some status in Hebei, I am afraid we would not have found them."

If no one comes to make this set of clothes for me, how can money be able to measure its value?"

"Besides, these clothes are not everyday clothes. They are very inconvenient to wear. They are also quite delicate and difficult to wash if they get dirty. Therefore, on weekdays, they are only worn during big festivals or extremely important occasions.

, it can be said that dressing is not clothes, but a gift. How can ordinary people spend money to buy such clothes?"

After saying that, the woman actually stood up and saluted him again, so Liu Dapao had to stand up and return the salute to him.

After a while, he burst into laughter.

"Why is Master Xiong laughing?"

"Just now I couldn't help but think about what Murong Yan would look like wearing your clothes. I couldn't help but burst out laughing. Phew, I'm sorry, it's so funny. I'm sorry.

"

Fu Deyi was stunned, and his face became visibly ugly.

While I was talking to you about our life-long events, you thought about other women for no reason and even brought them up. Isn't this a little too unreasonable?

After all, I am also a member of the Queen Mother's family, so you should respect me a little bit.

But he could only squeeze out a fake smile and said: "Master Xiong, regarding your marriage and mine, what do you think Master Xiong wants?"

Liu Dapao, as for Liu Dapao, thought for a while and said with a smile: "I have been living in the market since I was a child. I have a bad background. In other words, even now, I am still a gangster. I have never been to any elegant place."

"Let's just talk about making tea. In fact, many people have advised me to learn it, saying that with my current identity and status, I must have some of this elegant hobby."

"But after such a long time, let alone studying, even drinking it feels like a waste of time. And to be honest, I don't think the tea brewed like this is really delicious. Until now, I still like to drink fried tea.

The tea leaves are roasted in advance, and when you drink it, you just brew it with boiling water and drink it directly without adding any messy things. It quenches your thirst and is delicious. The whole process does not take more than three minutes, which is very convenient."

"That's the kind of person I am. At best, this is called a reckless hero. At worst, I'm just a country bumpkin. Trying to blend in with that elegant circle is like eating garlic and listening to the guqin. Everything is wrong."

"Girl, I am as beautiful as a flower, and a well-educated and sensible person. As for me, I am illiterate, vulgar, too vulgar, almost a barbarian. If I were to marry the girl, it would be inappropriate and unsuitable. I'm afraid it would be rude.

girl."

"So... let's forget about this matter."

Refused?

When Fu Deyi heard this, she couldn't hide the look of disappointment on her face, and as a girl, she couldn't help but feel a little worried about her self-esteem.

To be honest, although most of the elders of the Fu family do hold military positions, in fact, such an important matter as forming an alliance with Yangzhou is really not something that even an elder can't spare time for.

The Zhao family has a character like Zhao Kuangmei who is free from public duties and specializes in doing things that are inconvenient for other family members. How could the Fu family not have one?

Liu Dapao is very special. He is one of the few heroes in this era who can make a fortune from scratch. In other words, he is actually not bound by family ties. No one can make the final decision about his marriage except himself.

So Fu Deyi was sent directly. On the one hand, it was indeed because if an elder was sent to talk to him directly about this matter, it would be a bit inappropriate since they were so different in seniority.

On the other hand, it does not mean that there is no honey trap.

After all, Fu Deyi is really beautiful, and ninety-nine percent of men can't help but fall in love with her at first sight.

In other words, it's because of sex.

Fu Deyi was already wringing her fingers in her sleeves unconsciously, but she still forced a smile and said: "In Mr. Xiong's heart, is Miss Murong a good match?"

When Liu Dapao heard this, his heart was still complicated, but he shook his head and said, "I don't know."

"have no idea?"

"Murong Yan is pretty, but don't speak. As soon as you speak, her goddess aura disappears in an instant. I have known her for so long, and I have never felt my heart flutter even for a moment."

"I'm not afraid of girls' jokes. Although I've only met two sides of you, girl, the feeling you give me is actually much better than that of Murong Yan. I can clearly feel that my heart beats faster than usual.

"

"Then what are you..."

"But I feel comfortable when I'm with Murong Yan. In fact, she is also a noble, and she can also make tea, but I'm used to playing around with her."

Fu Deyi said: "Is it true that love has been growing for a long time?"

"Rijiu, it does last a long time, but when it comes to love...it seems that there really is no such thing. Until now, I only regard her as a friend. I originally thought that her feelings for me and my feelings for her should be similar.

It's more than friendship, but not enough love. I only found out recently that it seems to be different. It's because I'm too slow."

After a pause, he added: "She is actually not a good match. Not to mention her etiquette and demeanor, she is just a wild girl. I have actually thought about this problem. You say let her be my wife. I want peace in my family.

It seems that that is impossible, and she does not abide by the etiquette and is crazy every day. Sometimes she is very careless about the defense between men and women. It is no exaggeration to say that sometimes when I think of marrying him as my wife, I feel so bad.

, pounding and pounding."

"It's not the kind of heartbeat, it's the kind of unbearable beating. I can't even imagine that scene. You said I can't beat her, but she can also do martial arts. From now on, if I want to find a concubine to sleep with, etc.

Yes, I'm not allowed to report to her on time. I guess it will be difficult for her to marry another daughter-in-law. She can't say she doesn't have such a thing as women's morality, or she can say it's better than nothing. It's inappropriate, it's too inappropriate."

The relationship between Liu Dapao and Murong Yan is generally known to everyone in the world, but people in the world really don't know how far the relationship between these two people has developed.

But he didn't expect that Liu Dapao actually thought like this.

"But you said you should marry someone else. When I think of her, it seems quite sad. When she is sad, I feel bad too."

"I didn't fall asleep last night. I thought about it for a while. I thought about the scene where Murong Yan did not marry me but married someone else. Moreover, she left Yangzhou City and might never see her again in this life. In my heart, I thought

It hurt like dumpling stuffing. I just realized that maybe I didn’t dislike her."

"Do you think there is really a pure friendship between a man and a woman? Or is there really a so-called buddy relationship between a man and a woman?"

Fu Deyi thought for a moment and said, "You like it, but you also think it's inappropriate."

"Yes, that's what it is. I like it but it's not suitable. I also understand a little bit why Murong Yan can't get married at such an old age. You said that if she is a well-matched person, let alone others, if my son plans to marry someone

For a woman like Murong Yan, I have to break her legs."

"On the contrary, I also think that I am suitable to be with you. Not to mention that you have the entire Fu family standing behind you. There is no use for me to marry Murong Yan. You know, marrying or not marrying Murong Defeng is an ally.

Si also has a half-allies relationship. You are different, you can see that they are a good match."

"But Mr. Xiong, you don't have to be bound by your parents' orders. You can marry whoever you want. No one can stop you."

"Yeah, that's what it is, so I've been thinking these past few days, should I marry the one I like, or the one who is suitable for me?"

Fu Deyi thought for a while and said: "Marrying a virtuous wife, concubinage and sex. Mature people will usually choose the right one."

"That's right. If she, Murong Yan, can let go of her stature and become a concubine, why should I bother with that? Isn't it impossible? It would be good if we never get married and remain good brothers forever.

But obviously, this is impossible."
