In the evening, Qingcheng and Butterfly were laughing and talking.
The general came. He kicked open the door and came in. As soon as he saw Qingcheng, he cursed: "Monster, how did you confuse those men? That day, the prince returned to the palace and immediately asked the emperor to marry you as his concubine.
The emperor was furious. How could a concubine be a concubine? He was imprisoned in Luoxia Palace. You are in great danger, don’t you know?"
The general seemed to be angry, his eyes were red.
"I will only marry the eldest prince. The prince wants me to be his concubine, so what does it have to do with me." Qingcheng replied disdainfully.
"You son of a bitch, you still dare to say that. If I had known you were like this, I should have let you go to the well to keep company with your mother." The general pointed at Qingcheng angrily, trembling all over.
"In what well, my mother is really dead?" Qingcheng felt an inexplicable pain in his heart.
When the general saw that he had made a mistake, he was very angry and shouted out: "Come here, guard the fourth lady and don't let her go out of the hospital. If anything goes wrong, you can come to see me."
Immediately outside the door, several men said yes and stood guard at the entrance of the courtyard.
"Is my mother really dead?" Qingcheng didn't know what had happened to him, and he felt so sad that tears welled up in his eyes involuntarily.
"Just stay here and wait until you get married!" These were the general's last words when he left.
In the evening, the wet nurse came back and heard what Butterfly said. She couldn't help but feel sad. She hugged Qingcheng and cried bitterly: "I should have known that your mother was killed by them."
That night, bursts of shrill cries woke up Qingcheng. The shrill sounds seemed to come from a distant place, but also sounded from a very close place, penetrating the night sky like a knife, and piercing Qingcheng's heart.
, I can’t help but think about it as if I’m being guided to see the environment to feel comfortable.
Qingcheng put on some clothes and went to bed with bare feet. Butterfly and the nanny could hear the even breathing sounds. Qingcheng gently opened the room. The moon was bright and the stars were sparse at night, and the cold wind made Qingcheng shiver.
Pushing the courtyard door open a crack, Qingcheng walked out sideways. Several men guarding the gate were also drunk and fell asleep at the door.
The voice seemed to be absent, and Qingcheng's head was groggy, and his eyes seemed to be covered with a house of mist. Qingcheng looked for it as if he had been possessed by a poison and walked forward. He walked through the garden, walked past the rockery, and came to
In front of a courtyard that I had never been to when visiting Qingcheng, the sound disappeared.
The courtyard door was locked, and through the moonlight, Qingcheng saw the rust on it. He pushed it gently, and the iron chain made a clanking sound, which was particularly harsh in the silent night.
He leaned forward and looked inside. The disorderly trees were extremely lush. When the wind blew gently, they bared their teeth and claws and danced like demons. The courtyard was full of gloom. Qingcheng couldn't help but feel timid and didn't understand how he ended up here.
, and when he was about to turn around, there seemed to be a woman in white sitting on a dark stone inside, her head bowed in a very sad manner. Qingcheng looked forward carefully, but there was no one there. He rubbed his eyes again, but there was still no one.
Damn it, Qingcheng turned around with a shiver and ran back. He reached Lan Wan in one breath. Butterfly and the nanny were still sleeping soundly. He climbed into bed and sat holding the quilt tightly, but he couldn't fall asleep.
In the early morning, Butterfly and the nanny were shocked when they saw Qingcheng sitting on the bed holding a quilt, with the soles of his feet covered with dirt and abrasions. When they told the nanny and Butterfly what happened last night, they both shook their heads and said that they did not hear any crying.
I don’t know what yard it is.
Qingcheng, who was under guard, could not step out of Lanwan, so he had to let Butterfly go out to find out the news. Soon Butterfly came back, and as soon as he entered the door, he told Qingcheng: "Master Jingren is here."
"What's he doing here?" Qingcheng asked in a low spirit because he didn't sleep well last night.
"I heard that I was discussing the wedding date with the master." Butterfly paused, and then said: "I heard from other maids that the general went to the palace yesterday to meet the emperor. Shortly after returning, the emperor agreed to the prince's marriage proposal."
"Oh!" This was obviously a surprise to Qingcheng: both the general and the emperor did not agree with Qingcheng marrying the prince, so why did they agree to his request? Puzzled, he simply turned to Butterfly: "The general really agreed
Did you accept Ji Jingren’s proposal?”
"Miss, there is something I don't know if I should tell you." Butterfly looked at Qingcheng with dodgey eyes.
"Say it!" Qingcheng looked at her.
"The general also agreed to the eldest prince's proposal." Butterfly said softly.
"Ah! Could it be that the general has figured it out and wants me to marry the eldest prince? But based on his family background, that is impossible, but why would he agree?" Qingcheng muttered to himself, finally at a loss.
"Miss, the general also said that he would marry Young Master Jingren as his concubine, but Young Master Jingren said firmly in front of the general that he would marry the young lady. He also made a promise: He would advise the Holy One and let the general command the three armies.
"
After listening, Qingcheng was speechless for a long time. After a long time, he said quietly: "I will not marry Jingren."
"But, the general said that he will marry you to Jingren, and they will get married in three days." Butterfly said while looking at Qingcheng.
"I won't marry without a but," Qingcheng said through gritted teeth.
