"Hey! You even put on airs with me! See what you can do!" Zhu Yingying picked up a teacup and threw it towards Ma Xiaoyao.
"Whoosh!"
"Snapped!"
Ma Xiaoyao reached out and grabbed the tea cup. This time he finally reacted. He raised his head and glared at Zhu Yingying: "What do you want to do!"
"I want to eat apples!"
"Go wash it yourself!"
"I'm a princess! How can I do such a vulgar job?"
"What's wrong with you being a princess? A princess is no longer a human being? A princess can control people as she pleases? Let me tell you! If you want me to wash apples for you, there is no way!"
"Can you say that again!"
"I just said it a hundred times, a thousand times, and I said the same thing: if you want to eat apples, wash them yourself. If you want me to serve you, it's impossible."
"Then get off the carriage."
"you……"
"Get down! What are you doing here? Get down quickly! Let my third brother take it out on you! Leave quickly!"
"You...you...you are so despicable! You always use your third brother to scare me! I'm warning you, my patience has its limit. If you push me to a point...I will..."
"Whatever you do!" Zhu Yingying stared at Ma Xiaoyao, pinched her waist, and looked at Ma Xiaoyao arrogantly.
"I'll wash the apples for you." Ma Xiaoyao stood up, walked to the corner, picked up a red apple and started to wash it.
Zhu Yingying laughed, and the laughter got louder and louder: "I thought you were so amazing, but after making trouble for a long time, you are still a paper tiger."
"Hmph!" Ma Xiaoyao snorted softly: "I think you are a woman, so I don't want to argue with you."
"Just be tough." Zhu Yingying felt very proud. In the end, she won the cold war! She deserves to be happy!
After such a small episode, the barrier between the two suddenly disappeared, and they returned to talking about everything.
…
Time flies, and a month has passed before I knew it.
Zhu Yingying and others finally returned to the Qinglong Dynasty.
"Finally back!" Zhu Yingying opened the car window and took a deep breath of air: "The air at home is still fresh."
"It's purely a psychological effect." Ma Xiaoyao curled his lips: "The Qinglong Divine Dynasty and the White Tiger Divine Dynasty coexist under the same sky. The air that people breathe is the same, there is no difference at all."
"Why are you talking so irritatingly?" Zhu Yingying stared: "Believe it or not, I will kick you off the carriage so that my third brother can vent your anger?"
"Here we go again." Ma Xiaoyao sighed helplessly: "Every time he fails to speak up to me, he threatens me. It's really annoying."
"If you're afraid of threats, don't make me angry." Zhu Yingying snorted.
After entering the imperial city, Zhu Yingying and Zhu Fengbei separated. Zhu Yingying returned to the princess's mansion, while Zhu Fengbei returned to the prince's mansion. The two of them washed and dressed up, and then entered the palace together.
Xuande Hall is still as solemn and solemn as ever.
Zhu Tianba sat on the magnificent dragon chair and looked at Zhu Fengbei and Zhu Yingying with a smile: "You have worked hard this time."
"No matter how hard you work for your father, it's worth it." The two said in unison.
"Three days ago, the envoy of the White Tiger Dynasty came to the imperial city." Zhu Tianba said slowly: "I received him in this hall. Guess what the purpose of this envoy coming to the Qinglong Dynasty is.
?”
Zhu Fengbei smiled bitterly: "It should be for the sake of the children..."
Zhu Tianba smiled slightly: "You only guessed half of it right."
"Half?" Zhu Fengbei was stunned.
Zhu Yingying was also full of doubts.
"To be precise, I'm here for you two." Zhu Tianba said.
"The two of us?" Zhu Fengbei and Zhu Yingying looked at each other, and both saw a trace of doubt in each other's eyes. It was understandable that they came for Zhu Fengbei, but coming for Zhu Yingying... was puzzling?
"Third brother, have you slept with the fifth princess of the White Tiger Dynasty?" Zhu Tianba asked loudly.
"That's what happened, but I..." Zhu Fengbei was about to explain, but was interrupted by Zhu Tianba's hand.
"Since you slept with me, you have to take responsibility. Tomorrow I will send someone to the White Tiger Divine Dynasty to propose marriage." Zhu Tianba said without refusal.
"Father, I don't want to marry her..."
"What the hell are you talking about!" Zhu Tianba's face darkened: "If you sleep with someone else, you will be held responsible!"
"That fifth princess is so ugly..."
"What's wrong with being ugly? No matter how ugly you are, you still have to marry her!" At this point, Zhu Tianba softened his tone and said, "Lao San, I know you feel unhappy, but things have happened, and you have to be brave enough to take responsibility.
Isn’t it just ugly? What’s the big deal! Turn off the lights and close your eyes, won’t you see nothing?”
Zhu Fengbei and Zhu Yingying were both stunned. They did not expect that their father, who was always strict, could actually say such words...
"Third brother, if you marry the fifth princess, the relationship between the Qinglong Divine Dynasty and the White Tiger Divine Dynasty will become closer, and there will be many benefits for you to become the consort of the White Tiger Divine Dynasty, so, you can
Don't hesitate, the matter is settled." Zhu Tianba said with certainty and no doubt.
Zhu Tianba has already said this, what else can Zhu Fengbei do? He can only accept his fate, and he nodded decadently: "Everything is decided by my father."
"Okay!" After persuading Zhu Fengbei, Zhu Tianba turned to look at Zhu Yingying: "Lao Jiu, did you meet their eighth prince Luo Shaoqiu when you went to the White Tiger Dynasty this time?"
Zhu Yingying's heart "thumped", and an unpleasant feeling slowly rose from the bottom of her heart. She nodded: "I saw it..."
"The envoy of the White Tiger Dynasty told me that their eighth prince Luo Shaoqiu fell in love with you at first sight and wanted to marry you, so I agreed." Zhu Tianba said with a smile.
"What!" Zhu Yingying was shocked: "Father...you...are you kidding me?"
"Do you look at me like I'm joking?" Zhu Tianba said with a smile: "I have met Luo Shaoqiu once before. This kid gives me a good feeling. He is handsome and can talk well. Well, I thought about it carefully.
, no matter the appearance or identity, they are a perfect match for you."
"No, I don't agree." Zhu Yingying shook her head vigorously: "I don't like him! I don't like him at all!!! Father, please withdraw your decree and don't marry me to Luo Shaoqiu."
"Why did you react so strongly?" Zhu Tianba frowned: "What's wrong with Luo Shaoqiu? Why do you look down on him?"
"I don't feel anything for him at all."
"How does it feel! Do you feel like you can be a living person? This matter is settled. In a few days, the White Tiger God Dynasty will come to formally propose marriage. Maybe Luo Shaoqiu will come in person."
"No! Even if I die, I will not marry Luo Shaoqiu!"
"What are you talking about?" Zhu Tianba's face darkened: "Have I pampered you so much over the years that you have become arrogant and arrogant, and even I dare to contradict you?"
"Father, I really don't like him. Please, don't marry me to him, I beg you." Zhu Yingying begged.
"Okay, don't say any more." Zhu Tianba waved his hand impatiently: "I have already promised you, you have no words to say, and you will never go back on it."
"Father... you... you are pushing your daughter into the fire pit..." Zhu Yingying bit her thin lips, tears welling up in her eyes, and they might fall out at any time.
"Okay, you go back. Think carefully when you go back. I am your father and I will never harm you. Luo Shaoqiu is a good kid. You will not be wronged if you marry him." Zhu Tianba doesn't want to be with Zhu Yingying anymore.
The quarrel continued, so I directly ordered Zhu Yingying to leave.
Zhu Fengbei, who was standing nearby, saw everything that happened in front of him. For some reason, he actually felt a trace of schadenfreude in his heart. With Zhu Yingying as his companion, he would not be so lonely.
Since they are brothers and sisters, they have to face difficulties together.
"Father..." Zhu Yingying wanted to beg again.
"Go back!" Zhu Tianba's face darkened: "I don't want to talk to you now! Go back!!"
"Okay, let's go. My father is very angry right now. He won't listen to anything you say." At this time, Zhu Fengbei rushed to the good guys and forcibly pulled Zhu Yingying out of the hall.
"I'm so angry." Zhu Tianba slapped the table hard, causing the tea cup to shake: "You don't understand my painstaking efforts at all! Today's young people are so impetuous. They can't stop talking about how they feel.
! Can feelings be used as food? Can feelings be spent as money? Can feelings allow you to live a good and comfortable life? When you are alive, you must face reality and don’t think about unrealistic things! What’s wrong with Luo Shaoqiu?
?If you have good looks, good status, and a good personality, you might even be able to become an emperor in the future! You will definitely not suffer any loss by marrying him."
The reason why Zhu Tianba and Zhu Yingying quarreled was ultimately because of their different philosophies on life. Zhu Tianba thought simply, as long as two people have equal status, they can be together. As for relationships, they can be cultivated slowly, and they must put their lives first.
Bit! But Zhu Yingying doesn't think like that. What she longs for is love and marriage. Love must first exist before marriage. As for whether the days after marriage will be miserable or prosperous, that is not what she considers.
In fact, strictly speaking, Zhu Tianba and Zhu Yingying cannot be wrong, because they think about the problem from different angles.
…
Outside the main hall.
Zhu Fengbei persuaded him earnestly: "My ninth sister, just be patient. If you really make your father angry, you will definitely suffer."
"You are standing and talking without back pain." Zhu Yingying stretched out her hand to wipe away her tears: "Now my father wants me to marry someone I don't like, and you happen to be watching the fun, right?"
"Why are you watching the fun?" Zhu Fengbei curled his lips: "It should be said...we are in the same boat! You marry a man you don't like, and I marry a woman I don't like. We are both victims."
"Since you don't want to, then why didn't you argue with reason just now?" Zhu Yingying said angrily.
