Hu Guangting did some mental construction for almost an hour before getting on the carriage.
Just walking all the way into the palace, the clatter of horse hooves was not as strong as the pounding of her heart.
She twisted her handkerchief and tried to think of some light and funny things to relax herself, but what came to her mind? All she could think of was his handsome and majestic face.
She leaned her head on her solid shoulder and sighed: "Mom, the most important thing in my life cannot be ruined by my cowardice."
Mammy patted her shoulder gently and said, "Miss, please be brave and tell the emperor what is in your heart."
Hu Guangting pinched her fingers and pinched hard. Yes, she needed to be brave now.
You need to fight for your own future.
The thick yellow brick walls, the golden glazed tiles, and the vermilion palace gate that showed wealth and authority everywhere. When he stepped on the stone steps, Hu Guangting felt that he was getting closer and closer to his childhood dream.
Her heart truly became firm at that moment.
Hu Guangting was taken to the imperial study. At the door, she took another deep breath, then raised her head and followed Eunuch Mu Ru in.
Her steps were steady, stepping on the shiny white stone floor. The two pearls on the toes of her shoes were looming under the skirt of her skirt, and she walked step by step towards the person she had longed for nine years.
Stand firm, kneel down, "Hu Guangting to see the emperor."
Emperor Ming Yuan looked at the dwarfed figure and felt very unhappy. He glanced at it and said, "Without courtesy, get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" She stood up, handkerchief in hand, with her hands down, not looking up at him.
Emperor Ming Yuan cleared his throat and felt that talking to this little girl was more stressful than talking to the Supreme Emperor, "Your father came to the palace today to arrange your marriage. I think your father has worked hard and accomplished a lot, so I am keeping an eye on you."
grow up……"
Hu Guangting suddenly raised his head and looked at Emperor Ming Yuan with burning eyes, "Your Majesty, needless to say, I just want to ask you, do you not want me to enter the palace and stay with you?"
Emperor Ming Yuan prepared a large basket of heartfelt words and planned to have a good talk about life and ideals with her. However, he was silenced by her after only half a sentence.
Looking at the bright face in front of him, he felt extremely embarrassed, "What I mean is that you should find a child of a noble family who is about the same age as you. I promise you a princess..."
"No!" Once again, Emperor Ming Yuan's words were decisively interrupted. Hu Guangting's timidity at home and along the way completely disappeared, and he became bright and brave, with burning eyes, "My little girl doesn't want anything, as long as she enters the palace."
To be honest, Emperor Ming Yuan was a little shocked.
Such a girl, such a look, such affection, any man would be moved by the sight of her.
However, he is not an ordinary man. If Hu Guangting enters the palace, he is destined to be just a chess piece, a chess piece to contain the Zhenbei Marquis and the Zhenbei Army.
As a chess piece, he also hoped to place a young girl in a better place instead of placing her in a deep palace, which would consume her alive.
Therefore, his eyes were solemn and he said: "You are still young and don't understand many things. Entering the palace is a road of no return for you. I will choose another husband for you until you are satisfied. You can go back first.
"
Emperor Ming Yuan gave up communicating with her, and didn't intend to say the words he had prepared, because he couldn't match her bright eyes, so he sent her away.
How could Hu Guangting be willing to leave? She wouldn't leave without getting the right word, and she might not have the courage to tell him her true feelings a second time.
So, she slowly stepped forward and looked at him, "I don't like any man in the world except you. You don't have to bother to choose for me. If you don't like me, I will die today."
Here, I won’t ask you to arrange my life at will. You said that I don’t understand anything. Entering the palace is a road of no return. Even if it is, it is my own choice. If you ask me to marry someone, I will never know how to do it in my life.
The person you like also has a road of no return, but that is what you chose for me, and I will resent you until I die."
Emperor Ming Yuan's eyes were a little embarrassed, and he said slightly: "What do you mean you will never fall in love with her forever? Once you get married, you will naturally fall in love with her. Women in the world are like this. Do you fall in love before marriage?"
Hu Guangting suddenly said: "Before other women married, they didn't like anyone in their hearts, so they would naturally fall in love with their husbands for a long time. Even if there is no love, they are already tied together. That's called helplessness, that's called making do, but I can't
I'll give it to you, because I have someone I like. Ever since I got hairpins, people in Zhenbei have been proposing marriage to me, but I don't want to. It's not that there are no good men in Zhenbei, it's just that I don't like him. There is someone in my heart, Your Majesty.
Do you understand?"
Emperor Ming Yuan said angrily: "Talking to you will undoubtedly make no sense to me, so I won't talk anymore. I will talk to your father. Your father should make the final decision on your marriage."
Hu Guangting said firmly: "I make the decision about my marriage. It's my life. Why should I let him make the decision? I won't embarrass you. Just say, are you willing for me to enter the palace? No matter whether the answer is yes or no.
, I have the confidence in my heart, and I know what to do.”
Emperor Ming Yuan's eyes were condensed, "What if I say I don't agree?"
Hu Guangting looked at him for a long time, and when Emperor Ming Yuan couldn't help but feel angry, she said slowly: "Either die here, or become a monk. I, Hu Guangting, will not give in to my marriage or take my life lightly."
.”
Emperor Ming Yuan was really dumbfounded.
Facing such a little girl, I couldn't act like an emperor, mainly because she still had that kind of mentality, so I couldn't bully her with force.
But if he really ignores her, if she dies here or becomes a monk, the Marquis of Zhenbei will bear him a grudge.
After a while, he said: "You go back first, I will make my own decision."
"No, please give me the right words now." Hu Guangting also took the risk today.
"I told you to consider it!" Emperor Ming Yuan said angrily.
Hu Guangting looked at him and said, "After I leave the palace, who knows what strategies you will discuss? I must get a word of truth, and after I get the word of truth, I will announce it widely when I leave the palace, forcing you to say nothing."
Emperor Ming Yuan was dumbfounded again.
Did he...not get it wrong? Was he forced into marriage? By a seventeen-year-old girl?
But at this moment, he couldn't even care about the loss of his emperor's face, he just wanted to find a way to get her away.
What do you think? How come it was rumored that she came to the palace? You really shot yourself in the face.
"Your Majesty!" Hu Guangting knelt down and raised his eyes that were filled with tears. His stubborn face showed visible fragility, "I am not shameless. When your decree arrived, I was so nervous that my heart would jump out. I walked all the way into the palace.
My thoughts have never been complete. I mustered up a lot of courage to say these words. After I leave today, I am afraid I will never have the courage to say it again. I am not forcing you, I just want to have an explanation for myself.
.”
No matter how brave the heroes and tough guys in the world are, they cannot withstand the tears of women. This is an eternal law.
Emperor Ming Yuan, who was always known for his majestic and cold face, slowly nodded his head in front of these tearful eyes.
He even came back to his senses when the words "Thank you Lord for your kindness" were heard in surprise.
