Chapter 6
Chapter 6
Ten days later, good news came from afar, saying that Prince Huan's welcoming team had safely crossed the desert and arrived at the capital of Xique. Because of this, Pei Shengyu felt a little relieved.
He was relieved, but Liu Qiuyu's heart sank to the bottom, and he only hoped that Princess Xique would arrive later so that he could have more time to think.
He looked at Pei Shengyu every day, but he couldn't see that person's mood. The other person seemed to put on a mask, and he no longer mentioned the three-month bet with him.
He couldn't help feeling a little flustered.Did that person forget the agreement between them?
"Qiuyu, do you think this dress looks good?" A kind voice interrupted his thoughts, Liu Qiuyu quickly raised his head and looked at the old woman beside him - the empress dowager of Dongli Kingdom.
The Empress Dowager was choosing a wedding dress for her future daughter-in-law, and asked Liu Qiuyu to write down the details of her future daughter-in-law so that they could be recorded in the book in the future.
"I heard that Princess Xiangxiang and our family's music are evenly matched." The Queen Mother's eyes were bent with a smile. Her eldest son finally agreed to get married. This is what a mother looks forward to the most. How can it not be high?
prosper.
Hearing this, Liu Qiuyu's heart twitched again.
Since ancient times, gentlemen are fond of gentlemen. Of course, Pei Shengyu will choose a beautiful wife, and Princess Xiangxiang is the best candidate for his concubine no matter in appearance or status. Once the harem has a
People, I believe more people will be stationed soon, then what will I be in his eyes?I'm afraid that they will be squeezed to the farthest corner again and again, and after that, they will become like strangers.
Sample……
It pained him to think that that person would no longer have him in his heart.
"Well, Your Majesty is finally getting married, and Ai's family is finally over, but it's all on one mind." The queen mother didn't know what Liu Qiuyu was thinking, so she stepped forward to hold his hand with a smile, and her kind eyes made Liu Qiuyu pause
Forget about the boredom in your heart.
"Qiu Yu, you can be regarded as the one who grew up in Aijia. If it weren't for your company all these years, how could our Majesty be as promising as today?" She looked at it admiringly, feeling more and more that this child is beautiful.
Biao Tangtang smiled and said, "Qiu Yu, your parents have passed away for a long time, and now His Majesty's marriage has been settled, how about choosing a wife for you from Ai's family?"
This sentence shocked Liu Qiuyu, but she couldn't refuse it.
How could he tell this kind queen mother that he already had someone he liked in his heart, and that person was her own son, the soon-to-be-married King Dongli? !
Thinking of that person, he lowered his head a little disappointed.At this moment, Pei Shengyu is discussing marriage matters with the internal officials in the imperial study, and he has no time to take care of the Queen Mother, and it is even more impossible to help him out...
Yes, that person is about to be with someone else, so what's the point of continuing to be persistent?
You can't let the queen mother notice, you can't insult the reputation of the Liu family, and you can't ruin that person's reputation for a lifetime...Gritting his teeth, after struggling in his heart, he smiled and answered against his will, "I don't want to be an official."
No objection, everything is up to the Queen Mother to decide. "
Hearing this, the Queen Mother beamed with joy, patted his shoulder happily, and nodded in satisfaction. "Okay! Qiu Yu, Ai's family will not treat you badly, Ai's family will tell you, in fact, our Yinshu family has long liked you
Up! "
"...I am deeply honored." Bending down, he bowed deeply without feeling at all.
Princess Yinshu is Pei Shengyu's half-sister, and she is one of the four beauties in the world together with Princess Xiangxiang, whom Dongli is about to marry.
The princess is a person with a withdrawn personality, so...how could she have taken a fancy to him, Liu Qiuyu?
Furthermore, it was a very lucky thing to be favored by such a talented and beautiful princess, but his heart hurts even more.
He and that person will eventually be separated, but if he marries Princess Yinshu, the two will become relatives again, and the relationship will be closer... How ridiculous!Now he can only use this method to rely on
To get close to that person, just want such a long distance to be satisfied...
"Hehe, actually Yinshu is here today. I asked her to rest in the inner hall. How about letting you accompany Yinshu now?" The queen mother smiled, feeling that she had done a very perfect thing, and she was in a good mood
, Immediately waved for the internal officer to summon his daughter.
Not long after, Princess Yinshu arrived.She was dressed in a white floral gauze dress, with a red belt tied around her slender waist. On her fair face, her bright eyes were like black jewels, emitting a faint light.
Mans, captivating.
"Yinshu has met the Empress Dowager, Master Liu." Pei Yinshu saluted slightly, with an elegant demeanor and a soft voice. When he raised his head, Liu Qiuyu's embarrassed face was reflected in his bright black eyes.
"Your Majesty sees Her Royal Highness the Princess." Face to face with the princess without warning, Rao's mind is not on this matter at all
Liu Qiuyu couldn't help being nervous, and hurriedly saluted, looking a little flustered.
Seeing this, the Empress Dowager grabbed his sleeve and said with a smile: "Okay, Yinshu usually likes to be bored in the palace and doesn't like to move around. Today, let Master Liu accompany you to wander around the Imperial Garden."
Liu Qiuyu could only smile awkwardly at the princess.The queen mother's will, how can they, who are juniors, refuse to obey?
The two of them strolled to the imperial garden, and walked into the mahogany pavilion built in the middle of the lake. Pei Yinshu stood leaning on the railing, and Liu Qiuyu stood up straight beside him, not daring to lose his manners.
Seeing his nervousness, Pei Yinshu smiled slightly, "Master Liu has been by my brother's side for a long time, right?"
"It's been more than ten years since I returned to the princess." He replied, feeling a little miserable in his heart.
It has been more than ten years, and I have been with that person for more than ten years without knowing it, reading books and playing games together, sometimes staying too late in the palace, and sleeping together, but all this will be the past,
never come back.
Seeing that the mention of his elder brother seemed to be immersed in sadness, Pei Yinshu pursed his lips.
Depending on the situation, this guy really needs some advice from others.
"Brother Huang is very weird, don't Master Liu think so?" She suddenly asked with an idea in her mind.
"Although Your Majesty is occasionally stubborn, his grasp of major events is unprecedented, and he has never been seen before or since, and he is convinced." Liu Qiuyu still said calmly, but her heart was full of excitement that did not match her expression.
Pai.
That person's serious expression and confident expression deeply grasped his heart, making him unable to stop.
"But Brother Huang's feelings for him are always so intransigent!" Pei Yinshu smiled as he walked towards him, suddenly stumbled and fell forward.
"Princess!" Liu Qiuyu panicked, ignoring etiquette, stepped forward to catch her, and carefully helped her up.
As soon as she raised her head, she found that the person in front of her looked somewhat similar to that person. Liu Qiuyu couldn't help but be fascinated by the sight, and all she could think about was what that person was doing at this moment.
"Lord Liu?" Pei Yinshu didn't move, just smiled in his arms, embellishing her beautiful appearance even better.
And Liu Qiuyu panicked for a moment after she recovered, not knowing what to do with the tender bones in her arms.
"Master Liu, how long are you going to hold the audiobook?" She smiled charmingly again.
Blushing, Liu Qiuyu hastily let go of her hand, and accompanied Zui, "Your official was rude just now, Princess Wang..."
"Look, if at a critical moment, can't you throw away your etiquette?" There is something in Pei Yinshu's words, "Actually, you can do it, but you don't dare to force yourself to do it."
"...Princess?" Liu Qiuyu looked at her suspiciously.What exactly do these words mean?What does she know?
"Things like etiquette are used to show outsiders. When you face your truest emotions, these things are completely useless. Just like just now, you temporarily abandoned it out of instinct.
The etiquette of incompatibility between men and women supported me, didn't it? After arranging his clothes, Pei Yinshu smiled and observed his expression calmly.
Liu Qiuyu was really stunned when he heard the words, he didn't know why what the princess said was so shocking, but he suddenly clarified the entanglement in his heart, as if it made him understand something.
It turns out that if things like etiquette are too particular, it will only become a rope to bind oneself, and the bound self will not even dare to fight for what he desires most, and will gradually wipe himself out
I can only watch that person leave...
"...Understood." In the end, he finally smiled, and his whole body became much more relaxed, "Thank you, princess, for your reminder."
"Hehe, I just said that Mr. Liu is smart and capable, so he will definitely understand." Pei Yinshu covered his face and smiled.
It seems that everything is as Prime Minister Luo expected, and the next step is to see what kind of measures the emperor will take after hearing about this matter.
"It's getting late, Master Liu, the Queen Mother is waiting for me to have dinner with me." She smiled and stood up. "Lord Liu, I don't think the emperor will marry Princess Xique, because he sent Prince Huan to Xique.
Que. "Before leaving, Pei Yinshu left another sentence with a slightly mischievous expression.
She knew exactly what kind of person the Illusory Prince Pei Qianhuan was. She also figured out the reason why her elder brother sent that silly younger brother whose eyes glowed when he saw a beautiful woman to marry him.
I want to use this trick to test and stimulate the person in front of me.
Liu Qiuyu was awakened by one word.Could it be that that person...was actually just acting for himself? !
"Hehe, take care of yourself." Pei Yinshu turned and left softly.
Looking at her leaving back, Liu Qiuyu suddenly had a glimmer of hope in his heart.If everything is as the princess said, then...do I still have a chance to express my feelings to that person?
That night, the Empress Dowager asked Pei Yinshu to accompany her for a meal, and at the same time invited her eldest son whom she hadn't seen for a few days.
In front of her son, she smugly told her plan to bring Pei Yinshu and Liu Qiuyu together, as if she had done a very remarkable thing, waiting for King Dongli's praise.
But Pei Shengyu was so frightened by the queen mother that he almost spit out food. After coughing twice, he grabbed the queen mother's arm and shook his head hastily. "Mother, absolutely not!"
Seeing that her son objected, the Empress Dowager's original joy disappeared immediately, and she asked unhappily, "Why not? Isn't it okay for the Ai family to be the master of the Liu family?"
Pei Shengyu really didn't expect that his mother would think of interfering with Liu Qiuyu's marriage and disrupting all his plans. If he really got that person married, then why did he wait so hard for so many years?
? !
"Mother, the emperor thinks that Liu Aiqing's marriage is his own decision, and it's better for us not to interfere." With a smile, he looked at the other person who was silent at the table.he doesn't believe this
The seemingly indifferent, but actually stubborn younger sister will really fall in love with Liu Qiuyu, she is clearly against herself!
As soon as he received his gaze, Pei Yinshu pretended to be ashamed, and lowered his head, "Brother Liu, Mr. Liu is a dignified man, full of poems and books, and Yinshu also admires him..." The words fell, while he and the Queen Mother not pay attention to
When I was there, I secretly made a face.
Of course she didn't like Liu Qiuyu, and she did this just to tease this stubborn emperor brother. Who told him to put Prime Minister Luo, whom she admired, together with someone else?
As soon as she spoke, Pei Shengyu's body swayed suddenly, feeling that his head was about to explode, and everything in front of him seemed to lose its color in an instant.
"Hehe, look, since they are in love with each other, you don't have to worry too much, Your Majesty, and leave this matter to the Ai family!" The queen mother patted Pei Yinshu's hand dotingly, laughing hehe said
.
Pei Shengyu was very anxious, but he didn't dare to show it in front of his mother, so he could only endure it for a while, glared at his half-sister viciously for a few times, then lowered his head and ate it fiercely, but he couldn't taste it at all.
The flavor of the dish.
After dinner, he coaxed the queen mother to go to the backyard to watch a play with good words, and then he called his sister to him to ask what happened.
Looking at his beautiful sister, he had never felt that she was so dazzling as today, even the way she looked at him made him very displeased, as if ten thousand swords were pierced into his heart.
"Are you really going to marry Liu Qiuyu?" He asked sullenly.
Seeing his hesitation, Pei Yinshu secretly laughed in his heart, but answered, "Yes."
"...You really like him?!"
Seeing that her brother's eyes were about to burst into sparks, she finally couldn't help laughing, and replied honestly: "If it is true, Yinshu will be killed by Brother Huang's eyes!"
Pei Shengyu was taken aback for a moment, and felt a little relieved, but he couldn't understand his sister's intention even more, "Then why are you messing around with the Queen Mother?"
"How am I messing around?" Spreading her hands, she looked innocent. "If it wasn't for Brother Huang's performance that made everyone look down, none of us would fight against you. We just want to remind Brother Huang that if you continue to act like this
If you hesitate, you may really lose your wife by then..."
"You?" Pei Shengyu interrupted her, frowned, and after thinking for a moment, he figured out that there would be no one but the prime minister who had followed him for many years to instigate this younger sister. "Hmph, my brain is moving
On my head, I am quite courageous! "
She just laughed, neither denying nor confirming his guess. "Brother, since Liu Taishi is so stubborn,
And why do you have to work so hard behind your back to do so much?He must obey the imperial decree, right? Shaking her head, she didn't understand why this witty and eccentric emperor brother would be involved in this matter.
It's not as good as Luo Fengyang if he is so sloppy in life, he can grab whatever he wants, why should he care about others.
"I... don't want to force him, I can't use my status as a monarch and minister to restrain him. Yinshu, what I want is not only his body, but also his heart!" If he wanted to use force, he would have ordered him to be bound. up,
But he couldn't do it, he was afraid that it was just obeying the will of King Dongli, not from the heart, so he asked Liu Qiuyu to admit his feelings for him in person, and let the guy who regards ethics as the norm tell him personally
Tell yourself how he feels!
"But..." Pei Yinshu lowered his head.At this time, Brother Huang's face was terrifying, she didn't dare to look at it, and she didn't dare to refute, but Brother Huang has always been very brave, why did he act like this on this matter?
How cowardly?
Maybe Liu Qiuyu was very willing to be trapped by an imperial decree, maybe he was hesitating and waiting for that imperial decree to untangle him, why did the emperor just not understand?They are not partners who have been together for more than ten years
?
"Then, to be honest, Lord Liu has long agreed to the Queen Mother's marriage, and that's all. If the emperor's brother is still not ready to intervene, then it's useless for Master Liu to stay by the emperor's side.
Give it to Yinshu, Yinshu will definitely take good care of him. After saying that, she smiled slightly, "Let's leave Yinshu, Brother Huang, take care."
After saying what he should say, Pei Yinshu saluted and left, leaving Pei Shengyu alone.
Holding his head in pain, he didn't know what to do now.
Sometimes he also wants to give it a go and rub that person into his arms, but he is afraid that taking that step will make the other person never want to return to him.
Marrying Princess Xique this time, I originally wanted to stimulate the other party, so that he would obediently throw himself into his arms, but I didn't expect that it was me who was stimulated in the end.
The more Pei Shengyu thought about it, the more unwilling he became.From the beginning to the end, he was the only one acting in a monologue. That person had never cherished his feelings, and now he even agreed to marry his sister!
Does he like to trample on his own will so much?
"It seems..." He suddenly sneered, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
It seems that it is time for me to take action, and I can no longer let that kid do whatever he wants!
"Come here, call Liu Taishi for an audience!"
When Liu Qiuyu was ordered to come, when he pushed the door and entered, he suddenly found himself being stared at by a pair of sharp eyes.
"...My minister Liu Qiuyu, see Your Majesty." Knowing that the other party's face must be very scary at this time, he didn't dare to look up, so he could only kneel at the bottom of the steps.
"Flat body."
The dim light and the cold tone made Liu Qiuyu's scalp tingle. He stood up shyly, and just as he stood firm, he was pulled into his arms.
"Your Majesty?!" He was stunned, and then began to struggle, pulling Pei Shengyu's dragon robe indiscriminately.
"Why did you agree to the Queen Mother? Why did you agree?" Holding the man in his arms tightly, Pei Shengyu gritted his teeth and whispered in his ear, "Do you really want to leave me so much?!"
"Your Majesty..." Liu Qiuyu raised her head in astonishment, and found that the eyes of the person in front of her were full of darkness, just like when they first met, just as lonely and heartbreaking.
"I ordered you not to get married... Do you understand?" Pei Shengyu whispered in his ear, his hands dishonestly touched Liu Qiuyu's cheeks, along the neckline, into his chest, and swam against the skin
Go, "Without my permission, you can't marry anyone, you can't fall in love with anyone... Qiu Yu... I didn't want to do this..."
Liu Qiuyu was flustered, under his teasing, her body became totally not her own.He really wanted to hug him back, and throw all those etiquettes into the sky...
"Weichen... obey the order." Tightly holding the big hand that was getting more and more arrogant, he replied with the last bit of reason.
"Hehe..." Pei Shengyu laughed, but there was a sourness in his laughter that only he could understand.
It turned out that this person could really be obtained by decree. At this time, he only needs to make an imperial decree to end the years of lovesickness.
However, what he wanted was never just the obedience of this person...
