A lantern hangs on the white jade porch. Under the warm yellow lantern light, Princess Xuanyi's pretty face is rosy. She opens her cheeks, lowers her eyes, and flutters her two rows of eyelashes. She exposes her skin to the gaze of Prince Yuxian.
.
I am so humble by birth, but I love him.
How many times did I soak myself in cold water and stand in the cold wind to catch myself from the cold, just to ask him to check my pulse. His words, "The princess is weak, why does she often get cold, so she needs to take care of herself" made me very happy.
.
I went to the vassal country to get married, but I refused to die. I cut my wrists, and the escort team was scared to death. They were afraid that the vassal country would cause chaos, and my brother was also very angry. Until Prince Yuxian came and persuaded me with gentle words, teaching me to put the overall situation first, and I
I asked him if he could marry me if I could come back from my vassal country one day. He nodded and agreed. I had been living in the vassal country for ten years with his promise.
Now, he has proposed marriage to someone else. No matter how cold I am, he will never check my pulse again. What should I do?
Xuan Yi's red eyes blinked, and tears rolled down from her eyes.
Seeing this, Cangmiao sighed quietly. He turned his back and waved his sleeves, "Xuanyi, at least... cherish your reputation. One night, I said something like that, and my clothes were unbuttoned, and even in the palace
Outside the door, why bother yourself? It's not worth it for a man who doesn't care about you."
"My brother is about to marry someone else. What should I do with my reputation? In two or three days, my brother will be someone else's husband." Xuan Yi burst into tears, "I don't understand why it's not me. Obviously I
Not bad at all. I am good at playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, appearance and figure, and being an embroidery worker. Others compare me to the queen in beauty, but I am not bad at all."
"Put on your clothes." Cangmiao turned his back to her and looked forward.
"I do not want."
"I have advised you, slapped you, and scolded you. Xuanyi, wake up, pestering me makes me tired. Do you really want me to bring you to your brother? Elder brother
As a father, you have to interfere and make it so ugly?" Cangmiao pinched her eyebrows tiredly, "Isn't it good to be friends?"
Xuanyi was afraid of the emperor's brother, and her pupils shrank, "If you mention me to your brother, I will die immediately."
When Cangmiao saw that he could not be persuaded, he sighed, "You don't want to put on your clothes? You must be good to me tonight?"
Xuan Yi's face felt hot, "Yes, my clothes have been untied, Xuan Yi has made up her mind. I hope my brother will make it happen. Just once... just once."
Cangmiao turned around, his eyes fell on her cheeks, feeling both angry and compassionate. Out of respect, he did not cast his eyes on her skin, but looked at the princess's maid, Er Rong, and said in a rather frivolous tone:
"In this case, you and Errong don't leave tonight. You two stay here and spend the night together. Have fun together."
Hearing this, Errong shivered with fright and knelt down on the ground with a plop, "Your Majesty, spare your life, Princess, please spare your life. My slave... I dare not even think about sleeping with the Lord and Princess."
Xuan Yi felt a sharp pain in her heart, and she almost suffocated, "Brother, you... you regard me as the same as the maid? You want me to serve you together with the maid! I... I hate you so much!"
"No, I don't regard you as the same as a maid." Cangmiao frowned slightly and said angrily: "In my opinion, your performance today is worse than that of a maid. She hasn't even taken off her clothes yet.
The princess is relieved. Come into the house later and start doing business with me. In order, she must go first, then you."
Xuanyi's eyes were blurred with tears, and she was deeply humiliated. She slowly tied up her clothes, her cheeks turned red with embarrassment, and she secretly pressed Cangmiao's jade pendant tightly in her palms.
Don't even think about it, "Xuan Yi heard that my brother was going to propose marriage today. I was very impulsive and caused trouble to my brother."
Cang Miao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her tying up her clothes, "I'm sorry Xuan Yi. I tell the truth about the promise I made back then. I didn't expect you to come back to your homeland of Dongming. At first, I was approached by the emperor to persuade you to go.
My dear, I told a white lie. It was me who broke my promise to you. If you want my life, I will repay you. If you want my affection, I can't give it to you. I'm sorry."
After Cangmiao finished speaking, she entered the palace without hesitation.
Xuan Yiru was defeated and stood outside the palace. She took two steps back and was supported by Errong before she could stand firm. She covered her cheeks with a handkerchief, lifted up her skirt, and ran straight to the edge of Dayan Lake.
After completing his duties, General Lao Qing saw Princess Xuanyi crying by the lake again. He wondered if this person was going to commit suicide again. He committed suicide twice in two days. He was quite curious. He stood not far away from the lake.
On the edge, a sword stood far away.
The wind blew up her handkerchief and it slipped from her palm. Lao Qing took the handkerchief stained with her tears and walked over to hand it to her. Xuan Yi took the handkerchief, covered her face with it and cried until Lao Qing
He put his shoulder on his shoulder and asked him: "Why don't you want me? What's wrong with me? Is it a bad figure, a bad appearance, or an inability to read and write? I clearly...obviously..."
When Lao Qing heard the word "body", she didn't dare to move or take a closer look. She only lowered her hands to make stone sculptures. Every time she saw her, she felt very sad and whispered: "My subordinate is rude... The princess is fine in everything."
"
Cangmiao entered the hall and saw Ziqin standing respectfully outside the door. He frowned, "Why do you look so scared?"
Ziqin pointed to the inner hall, "I just came back and saw that the door lock had been picked. I was so angry that I entered the hall with a wooden stick. When I saw the emperor, Prince Rong and Haiyin in the hall, I carried the wooden stick.
The staff came out again! So I became afraid and changed my face."
Cangmiao smiled and said, "You should go to the gate with a wooden stick to save me. I almost lost my life at night and lost my virginity on the spot."
Ziqin was shocked: "In the inner courtyard of the imperial court, someone is actually robbing someone?!"
Cangmiao entered the house, and on the large platform outside the floor-to-ceiling window, the emperor, Prince Rong, and Haiyin were feeding the koi in the carp pond.
The emperor was leaning against the fence and said, "There are many kinds of koi in his pond, including three-color autumn green, Yamato brocade, and gold and silver scales. In addition to the three-color carp, there are also five-color ones."
Di Yuanrong sprinkled a handful of fish food, "Brother said he knows how many there are? If not, just catch one and take it away."
"Twenty-seven. Thank you." Qiu Yan counted several times. Cangmiao saw that everyone at the table was not polite and had already made tea. It seemed that they had been waiting for him for a long time. This is his place, right?
He was no longer sure, so he picked up a cup of tea and asked, "Can I have a cup of tea?"
The emperor raised his eyebrows, "It's casual, just like at home."
Cangmiao smiled and took two sips of Maojian, "Prying the lock? Who did it!"
"Me." Haiyin coughed lightly, "But it was the emperor who proposed to come to your place after handling the affairs. Seeing that the door is locked, I can't let you wait outside. So... I took out
Got the lock picking tool and got out of hand..."
Cangmiao was startled, "You guys broke the lock and came in. Is there anything urgent?"
Haiyin raised his eyebrows, full of drama, "What else could it be? Just that?"
Cangmiao was puzzled, "...Which thing?"
Prince Rong stepped forward and asked, "Brother, did the marriage proposal go well?"
Cangmiao was startled, wasn't it? I came here in the middle of the night just to gossip about his life-long events, "Who am I? Is this going to go well? Lord Protector, I won it!"
The emperor glanced at him and saw that his eyes were slightly red. He was crying because he recalled childhood memories with Qiu Yan. He joked: "Kneel down and cry to beg someone?"
Cangmiao was drinking tea and almost choked, "Please, Qiu Mei and I are in love, there is no need to cry and kneel down to beg her."
The emperor smiled and said, "Did you kneel when you proposed?"
Cangmiao took a deep breath, pursed her lips and smiled: "Kneel down..."
The emperor smiled and said nothing.
"The man has gold at his knees!" Prince Rong, Emperor Yuanrong, burst out laughing, and then joked: "Qiu Mei? If you call the general Qiu Mei, won't you be beaten to death?"
Cangmiao put down the tea cup, "She is very good in front of me, very docile, like a Persian cat, she listens to my words very much."
Emperor: "..."
Di Yuanrong: "..."
Haiyin: "..."
Cangmiao frowned, "You don't believe it?"
"Do you believe it yourself?"
"I'll give you a chance to demonstrate it tomorrow. Do you think I don't look like a man in front of Qiu Mei?"
The emperor nodded: "Yes."
Di Yuanrong chuckled, "When you came back from the desert, the general held you and walked as fast as you could. You really looked like a man. My wife can't even hold me in her arms."
Cang Miaoyuan's pale cheeks were slightly flushed due to the serious injury, "...Don't make fun of me."
Haiyin immediately asked: "Is the date set?"
"The eighth day of April." Cangmiao nodded.
Haiyin sighed, "There are still three days left! Why not decide tomorrow!"
Cangmiao coughed lightly, "Have you ever thought that maybe I need some time to prepare? Decorate the wedding room or something? You can't just take Qiu Yan away in your pocket after proposing marriage!"
Haiyin sighed again, "It's enough to prepare the decoration overnight! There are so many people in the palace, and Prince Yuxian's palace will be decorated with lights and decorations in two hours! You don't have to decorate it yourself! You just need to show up in the bridal chamber!"
"Calm down." Cangmiao waved her hands quickly, "I...I don't want Qiu Yan to think that I have never seen a woman before."
Di Yuanrong exposed him, "You haven't seen it before!"
Cangmiao immediately said: "You guys are leaving, why don't you see me off."
Di Qianao lowered his expression and said seriously: "When you welcome the bride, Yuanrong and I will help you with the procession and make the wedding grand."
Cangmiao was so moved that she was about to pat the emperor on the shoulder and call him a good brother when she heard the emperor say: "I'm finally going to marry you off."
Cangmiao immediately wanted to break off the relationship. He cleared his throat and said, "Since brother and brother Rong are here, don't leave and do me a favor."
As he spoke, he took out four to five hundred empty posts and placed them on the desk.
"This is?" the emperor asked.
"Wedding invitations. Help me write them separately. We are getting married in three days. I have to draw up the invitations quickly. I will write a sample first for your reference." Cangmiao said, and wrote an invitation with ink, "Here.
, that’s it, you don’t need to write the names of the invitees, just write Qiuyan and Cangmiao’s wedding sincerely invite them to attend the wedding, and Qiuyan’s name should be placed first.”
Immediately, the emperor, Prince Rong, and Prince Yuxian began to copy the wedding invitations by holding candles on the table where the fragrance of medicine lingered, chatting while copying.
Prince Rong was reminded of his relationship with his bride, Qi Wanru, and couldn't help but sigh: "The token Qi Wanru gave me at that time was a beaded hairpin. In the blink of an eye, she had given birth to a daughter for me. The token of love you received
What is it?"
The emperor dipped his pen in ink and said in a deep voice: "Handkerchief."
Cangmiaojun's face heats up, mine is a bellyband, how dare I say, "..."
The emperor looked at Cangmiao, ready to crush him, "Why don't you say anything? Didn't you receive the token?"
Cangmiao drank warm tea and said, "Wooden comb."
Qiu Mei will know if she is there as soon as she makes a move. Good guy, a bellyband has made me dominate the front hall! No one is better than my love token!
Emperor: "..." His expression is very rich. Do I lose in the token competition?
