Looking into the boy's eyes, Xu Mingyi thought for a moment and said in a low but serious voice: "He can do it."
His temperament will not be changed by his location. He will always change the environment, rather than being changed by the environment.
Just like in his previous life, let alone concubines, he didn't even have a queen.
Therefore, as long as he is willing, many things are not insurmountable problems.
Xu Mingshi asked hurriedly: "Did he promise you?"
Xu Mingyi shook his head.
"He never promised me, and I never asked him this question."
But now that the two of them have known each other, there are some things that no longer need to be said, they are already perceived by themselves.
He knows her and she knows him.
Even in her opinion, this matter did not need to be discussed at all. If it was not brought up today, she would not even think about it deeply.
Xu Mingshi was silent for a moment and then asked: "Do you believe him that much?"
I didn't even ask a question, but I was so sure of it.
"Of course I believe him." Xu Mingyi said with a smile: "I believe him now."
Xu Mingshi felt a little confused when he heard this.
Him now?
"No one can predict what will happen in the future." Xu Mingyi turned around and walked forward leisurely and slowly, while saying in a very casual tone: "The situation is unpredictable and time has changed. All these are possible, but this is all in the future.
All I need to know is that the person in front of me is indeed someone worthy of my trust wholeheartedly."
Everything in the world is ever-changing, but you can’t reject the sincerity and beauty of the present just because of possible changes in the future, right?
She is a practical person and believes that living in the present is the most important thing.
Xu Mingshi walked slowly behind her.
He generally understood.
But I'm still worried.
"But what if...he really changes in the future?"
As she said, it is true to enjoy the moment and embrace the sincerity, but you should always prepare for the worst in everything, right?
"Even if he has changed, it's not that I can't accept it." In the cool night breeze of early summer, the girl's voice was very relaxed, "I trust him wholeheartedly, but it's not that I can't accept any change in him, nor is it possible.
Tie all your mind to him. The days are so long, and there are always many happy things to do."
She relived this life and was really lucky to be able to walk with Wu Chao. She also cherished this luck, but this was not the whole meaning of her relived life.
"Besides, there's no telling who will change first." She said, both seriously and jokingly: "Maybe I got tired of him first, thought he was so troublesome, and wanted to expand his harem for him - this is also possible.
,Right?"
"..." The corners of Xu Mingshi's mouth twitched.
Looking at the girl walking in front, I felt that the slender, straight and elegant back was faintly exuding the brilliance of the peerless Hoshiyukiro.
It's okay not to say it, but when he said it in this way, he actually felt... it was quite possible!
Therefore, the resentful woman in the palace - no!
A resentful husband in the palace - extremely possible!
How could he have such a sister?
At this point, the boy has already realized that perhaps his future brother-in-law's future situation is the one that he needs to worry about and sympathize with the most.
but……
After all, the person in front of him is his sister, so it is inevitable to favor her.
If she could really live such a free and easy life, he would be relieved.
At this time, the girl's voice reached his ears again.
"From now on, I have to rely on my family to help me."
Rely on him?
"What do you rely on me for?"
He wanted to go back to Dongyang, but he couldn't even relieve her boredom when she was upset - he always felt blocked in his heart when he thought about this many times recently.
"As long as our Xu family is prosperous, I can straighten my back in Beijing and do whatever I want. I can't count on my father, but I have to rely on you, right?"
This is a bit of a joke.
After Xu Mingshi thought for a moment, he said very seriously: "With my grandfather and me here, you can just do what you want to do, and there is no need to tie yourself up and embarrass yourself because you worry about the Xu family - you have to remember that your family is your support and support.
I will support you and will never be a drag on you.”
He will work hard for this!
As for her, just being Xu Mingyi is enough.
In recent years, she has become sensible enough, so let's stop here. With him and the Xu family here, she doesn't have to continue to grow up.
The boy's eyes are firm and soft.
Xu Mingyi's eyes curled up after hearing this, she nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, that's settled."
So, how could she have a bad life?
With so many people who love her around, life will only get better and better no matter how she lives.
The stars were shining brightly at night, and Xu Mingyi walked all the way back to Xiyuan under the stars and moonlight.
Seeing her coming back, Akui first brought a brocade box to her.
Xu Mingyi sat down in the chair near the window in the inner room. When he saw the brocade box, which was only the size of a palm, he couldn't help but ask: "What is this?"
This small box obviously cannot contain the manuscript sent by Shouming.
"Back to you, miss, Xiaoqi just sent this." Akui whispered, "I said it was on the order of his young master."
Xu Mingyi took it over.
The brocade box was opened, and inside it was a jade bead bracelet.
Today is the day when he resumes his status as a prince. He must be too busy to find a moment of leisure. How can he have the leisure to give her such a small thing?
She took out the bracelet with some curiosity and looked at it carefully.
It only took a moment to notice something unusual.
The jade beads used on this bracelet are round and crystal clear, and the color is of excellent quality. They are not a single color, but are made up of five colors: vermilion, white, blue, yellow, and black.
So, this jade bead...is actually taken from the prince's crown?
He recognized his ancestor today and she couldn't witness it with her own eyes, so he took the beads from the crown and made them into bracelets and gave them to her.
Xu Mingyi slightly curved his mouth and put the bracelet on his wrist.
The window lattice beside her was half open. She raised her hand and saw the clear moonlight.
The moonlight in summer nights always seems to be much stronger than in winter.
Under the moonlight, the slender wrists and the five-color jade bead bracelet seemed to be dyed with a very soft light.
"nice."
The girl praised herself seriously.
That night, she slept with this bracelet on her pillow, and she actually dreamed about the scene when he was offering sacrifices in the Ancestral Temple.
She saw his figure as tall and tall as a pine tree surrounded by hundreds of officials, and saw the seven-chapter golden pattern on the mysterious clothes on his body.
Soon, seven chapters turned into nine chapters——
The day for the crown prince's inauguration has arrived.
The ceremony for establishing the crown prince was more solemn than the previous ceremony for recognizing ancestors.
On this day, Xu Mingyi put on men's clothes and went out, sitting down in one of the busiest teahouses on Chang'an Street.
As expected, all the voices in my ears are talking about today's crown prince ceremony.
"...I heard that when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince recognized his ancestor and returned to the clan last month, auspicious clouds appeared in the sky. It can be seen that it was destiny!"
"It is said that His Highness the Crown Prince is not only talented in both civil and military affairs, but also has the appearance of an immortal. I am afraid he is not a god coming to this world..."
"With this Mingjun and Crown Prince, our Daqing will definitely be in good luck!"
"That's right! This morning, my old water sheep gave birth to six lambs, and they were all very strong!"
There were exclamations from all around.
Xu Mingyi was shocked and even confused.
His Highness, the Crown Prince, co-authored with him, actually allowed Lao Shuiyang to have more babies?
Then does she have to go and pay homage another day so that he can bless his third eye to grow more hairs?
And as soon as that person mentioned it, many auspicious things began to pile up -
Some people said that their old lady had been ill for several months, and even the doctors said there was no hope of recovery. They had already bought a coffin, but the old lady suddenly recovered.
Someone else said that he went out to pick up money this morning. As he said this, he took out three coins and showed them to everyone.
Some people even say——
"My mother-in-law hasn't hit me in ten days!"
"...?" Xu Mingyi was stunned again.
Is there such an impact?
The scope of responsibility of His Highness the Crown Prince is a bit too broad...
Or should we say that only when people are at peace can they have the energy to pay attention to the lucky things around them?
Listening to the noisy and lively sounds in her ears, she picked up the tea cup and took a sip, then turned her head leisurely and looked at the long street downstairs from the window lattice.
Pedestrians crowded together, shop banners were fluttering, street vendors yelled and shouted, and several children holding candy figures in their hands chased through the market, leaving behind a string of childish and loud laughter.
Xu Mingyi looked at it quietly for a moment, then looked further away with a smile.
Crossing Chang'an Street and two lanes further is where the Prince's Mansion is located.
After being canonized today, the Crown Prince will move into the Prince's Mansion. The palace is busy with the canonization ceremony, so the Prince's Mansion must also be very busy.
Tianmu followed Xiaoqi there early in the morning to join in the fun. At this time, he must be busy getting familiar with the new house. The first thing is probably to find out where the kitchens of each courtyard are.
Tianmu is indeed wandering around the Prince's Mansion, and rather than wandering around, it seems more like the master is inspecting the new house——
The big bird wandered from the front yard to the inner yard. When he was tired from walking, he sat down on the right seat in the main hall. The whole bird was slumped in the Taishi chair. He looked at the servants coming and going in the hall, and his whole body exuded
A kind of "not bad, I am very satisfied, do a good job" feeling of guiding the country.
Big Bird is not the only one who comes to join in the fun.
Wu Ran also came over.
He came to Beijing with King Dingnan before, and his second biological brother suddenly became his cousin. When he first learned about it, it was a big shock to the boy.
At first it was difficult for him to accept it, and he even felt that life had become unreal.
It was his father's words that woke him up - if you think about it as a father, can you really give birth to a child as outstanding as your second brother?
After hearing these very reasonable words, he suddenly felt that the world became real again.
It has been more than two months since he came to the capital. During these two months, he has gradually adapted to this fact.
And because although there has been a change in identity, there has not been much change in their relationship, so the closeness between the brothers has not diminished, which makes them feel more relieved.
When he came to the Prince's Mansion today, he felt the same as when he was celebrating his second brother's move to a new house.
"Why is there such a big rose flower stand here?" Wu Ran came to the main courtyard and looked at the rose flower stand behind the rockery that almost occupied an entire wall. He couldn't help but remind him: "Second brother has always disliked the fragrance.
Rich flowers and plants——"
Shi Wenyan, the head of the Crown Prince's Palace who was accompanying him, was a little surprised: "This is what His Highness the Crown Prince specially told you before..."
This time Wu Ran was stunned.
Did the second brother specifically confess it?
Looking at the flower wall again, the boy couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Is that what he thought?
…
The sun sets and the stars appear.
Suddenly there were fireworks blooming above the imperial city.
It has been a long time since fireworks were set off in Beijing, and perhaps it has not been so lively for a long time.
And the excitement went out of the palace and came to the people, making today's crown prince ceremony truly a grand event celebrated by all people.
"You just received the canonization today and you sneaked out. Those adults would probably have a headache if they knew about this."
On top of the city tower, under the bright moon, two figures sat side by side. The night wind blew the black hair on the back of the girl's head, and occasionally fell on the young man's upright back, making the two figures look intimate.
"With my father here, they don't have time to keep an eye on me. The more busy everyone is, the less important things happen, so it's a good time to take some time off."
His tone was very casual, not at all like someone who had just taken over the important role of Crown Prince today.
But Xu Mingyi knew that he had a strong sense of responsibility.
She tilted her head and leaned on his shoulder, looking towards the city with him.
The lights of thousands of houses flickered brightly or dimly like stars, but when they fell into their eyes, they were more dazzling and pleasing to the eye than the thousands of stars in the sky.
These human stars represent stability.
And this stability is just the beginning.
From now on, they will guard this city side by side, and it will be far more than just this city.
…
After the ceremony of the new emperor's enthronement, the prince's recognition of his ancestors and the establishment of the crown prince, everyone in the Ministry of Rites finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Finally I can take a break."
An official from the Ministry of Etiquette took a sip of tea and spoke to his colleagues with a contented expression.
Before several colleagues could nod, they saw a clerk walking in quickly.
"...My lords, something big has happened again!"
Several officials looked at each other - everything that should be busy is already busy, what else can be done at this juncture?
Can't His Majesty have another son to recognize? Far more than just one?
The clerk quickly said: "Your Majesty has just issued a decree to grant a marriage to His Highness the Crown Prince. The adults who were ordered to deliver the decree have already left the palace!"
Several officials were shocked when they heard this.
Marriage grant?!
The ceremony for establishing the crown prince has only been held for about ten days, and now you are getting married?
Usually, when princes and princes choose concubines, they are mostly urged by courtiers, but Your Majesty... This is not giving them a chance to do anything at all!
And because the previous proposal to persuade His Majesty to expand the harem was not adopted, now countless pairs of eyes in the court are staring at the position of the Crown Princess, and all parties are probably gearing up and preparing to show off their special abilities——
Now it’s better, there’s no need to fight anymore!
"Which girl is your Majesty referring to?!" an official asked hurriedly.
On the surface, this matter seems to be so sudden that people are completely unprepared. But if you think about it for a while, you will know that such a big event cannot be a sudden decision... His Majesty may have already had a favorite candidate!
Just wait until the crown prince ceremony is over to put your ideas into action!
"It's no one else, but Miss Xu from Dongyang Prince's Mansion!"
——Miss Xu?!
Xu Qiwei’s granddaughter!
The one who just received a commendation from the imperial edict.
In other words - he was the one who almost took His Royal Highness home to celebrate the occasion!
So, can this be understood to mean that after going around and around and changing identities, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was still unable to escape the fate of making people happy in the end?!
