"Elder brother, it's useless to do something reluctantly." Xie Qiuyan gently comforted, "let's go."
Xie Qiuyang was dragged next door by his sister until he sat down next to a chair.
Yes, my sister is right. I can't do something reluctantly.
Even if she wants to see him, what will happen if she sees him?
Xie Wei and his family are doomed not to marry. All his thoughts are just the moon in the water and flowers in the mirror.
"Is she... Well?" Xie Qiuyang hesitated for a moment and asked.
Xie Qiuyan waved her hand and asked the miscellaneous people in the room to step back. "The imperial doctor said that she still needs several years of cultivation to fully recover. Elder brother, it doesn't matter if you run out of the palace like this? My father didn't say..."
"It doesn't matter." Xie Qiuyang waved weakly, "it doesn't matter whether I'm here or not."
"Has father changed his mind?" Xie Qiuyan said strangely.
"It's not that he took the initiative to change his mind, but that someone has been with the princess." Xie Qiuyang said lightly, as if he was explaining something that has nothing to do with him. "His Highness the fourth Prince has taken the lead, so I don't have anything to do. Maybe the princess has chosen him in her mind."
Xie Qiuyan's eyes blinked. Although she was a little happy for her eldest brother, she finally didn't have to marry the princess Rouran who didn't want to please at all, she was a little worried about herself.
She is about to marry the third prince. If the fourth Prince's power is expanding day by day, I think she will not have a better life in the future.
She was stunned for a long time, and then smiled faintly, "let it be." the future is not something she can decide. Since her father and aunt have done so, they have their reason.
Xie Qiuyang raised his eyes a little, "don't you blame big brother for not trying?"
"Why should I blame big brother?" Xie Qiuyan smiled.
"You are about to marry the third prince. If your eldest brother can marry Princess Rouran back, it will undoubtedly give the third prince and you a good help." Xie Qiuyang said, "now you are preempted by the fourth prince. You know, in this way, his power has expanded a lot secretly."
"It doesn't hurt." Xie Qiuyan smiled magnanimously. "I won't blame big brother, and big brother doesn't have to think about it. I can't help it. If big brother can live more freely, I'll be very happy. Besides, if my aunt is here and my father is there, big brother won't let me go. No matter what the result is in the future, won't we still be a family?"
Xie Qiuyan's words said that Xie Qiuyang's thoughts fluctuated at the bottom of his heart. He frowned and finally sighed, "My aunt said that among so many girls in the family, you are the most like her, and she loves you the most. I didn't understand before, but now I understand. She doesn't want you to marry into the royal family, but only you are the most suitable to marry into the royal family. Your Highness the third prince is generous. I know you have only regarded him as your brother since childhood, and have no other thoughts. Although I can't say that marrying him is grievance I love you, but I'm not the man you like. I can't follow your heart anyway. "
"Does your Highness the third prince have a happy girl?" Xie Qiuyan asked with a smile. "If so, elder brother will tell me earlier. I also have a preparation in my heart. Don't make me feel too sudden."
"No." Xie Qiuyang thought carefully, then shook his head and said, "His Highness the third prince doesn't think much about women. You can rest assured that up to now, there are no two palace maids around him, let alone concubines."
"That's good." Xie Qiuyan nodded and then stood up to her eldest brother. "You see, I'm not particularly wronged. At least the married people know their roots and grow up together. Compared with many girls, I'm lucky."
Xie Qiuyang looked at Xie Qiuyan's gentle smile. The bottom of his heart was still a little sour.
"Don't worry, brother won't let you suffer. Neither will father and aunt." Xie Qiuyang slowly raised his hand, pressed his sister's shoulder and said slowly.
"I know." Xie Qiuyan nodded.
There was a commotion in the long street outside. There was the sound of horses' hoofs passing by, and there was a faint cry for people to wait on both sides of the road.
Xie Qiuyan looked back, got up, opened the door to the balcony, went to the side of the fence and leaned over to have a look, "brother, brother, come and see, the guard of honor of Princess Rouran is coming!"
Xie Qiuyang got up and walked to the fence, but instead of looking at the long street first, he looked directly at the next door.
His hand closed in his sleeve robe was slightly tight. Wei ruoyi sat on his side, very close. There was a basin of blooming Begonia between him and her. Through the branches and leaves of Begonia, her face was as hidden as now in front of him.
The original Mingli was covered by pallor, but there was a kind of vulnerability that broke his heart. He wanted to raise his hand and pull away the branches and leaves of the basin of Begonia so that he could see more clearly. His hands were stretched out, but he was held by Xie Qiuyan.
Xie Qiuyang suddenly regained his mind. Only then did he realize that if he had done what he had just done, what will be spread in the capital tomorrow will be the scandal between the Xie family and the Wei family.
He smiled bitterly, "don't worry." he lowered his voice and said to Xie Qiuyan, "I won't make waves."
"Big brother, watch the excitement." Xie Qiuyan smiled slowly and pointed to the outermost side of the long street.
Princess Rouran's guard of honor is really impressive. In front of her is a team of Liang guards sent by the ritual department to guide the way. They are wearing Liang's Dragon flag. The guards are bright armor one by one, which shows the strength and majesty of Liang. Followed by the team of Rouran people.
At the front of the Rouran people's team are 20 tough young men, wearing black boots, red pants, shirtless upper body and a circle of animal skin, who look very strong. The muscles of each arm are bulging, and they are about to catch up with the legs of children.
After them are the rare birds and animals that came with the mission, which are presented to his majesty Daliang. The two cars in front are loaded with several red crowned cranes with snow-white feathers and ink dyed feather tips, representing good luck and longevity. This kind of thing is in the palace, which is difficult for ordinary people to see. Therefore, when the people saw the Red Crowned Crane, they exclaimed.
The carriage followed by the Red Crowned Crane contained several large animals like deer and non deer. When they passed slowly, everyone talked about it one after another.
Wei ruoyi touched his chin. It's four different! The animal caught by Rouran people is really interesting.
From the animals they brought, Rouran people really came to marry. These animals represent good luck.
After the animals passed, the sound of drum music came, and a group of soft girls and teenagers, dressed in colored clothes and e Guan, marched singing and dancing. They passed in different order, and their clothes were also different. The singing and dancing team was very long, and someone was responsible for sprinkling colored petals on one side. Once the breeze passed, the singing and dancing sound, and the petals moved with the skirts and clothes of girls and teenagers, just like a sea of happy flowers. The dance is very cheerful and the drums are clear and lively. People can't help but want to dance with the drums. The appearance of these boys and girls immediately pushed the atmosphere to a very warm height.
Wei ruoyi looked at it with great interest. I think these girls and teenagers in different clothes represent and Rouran different tribes.
The purpose of Rouran people's move was to tell the emperor of Daliang that all their tribes were willing to make an alliance with Daliang.
In fact, there is no way not to sign an alliance. If Rouran people want to work with Daqi people, they naturally want to appease Liang's heart first.
As soon as the song and dance team passed, fifty bright and beautiful girls followed in two rows. Their clothes and decoration should be gentle palace maids. Following them was the carriage in which Princess Rouran sat,
The carriage was empty around. There was no carriage wall or shed roof. Eight snow-white horses pulled a carriage made into a petal shape and moved forward slowly. In the center of the petal sat an exotic girl in a red dress. Her black hair was coiled up high, with a corolla and other gold ornaments on her head. It was unspeakable and beautiful.
Everyone was looking at her, and she looked around gracefully and waved to the surrounding people again and again.
"Look, Princess Rouran has a good temper." Wei ruoyi smiled.
Princess Rouran's chariots and horses passed, followed by a team of royal guards. Wei ruoyi was nervous. Just now she didn't think much about the princess. Now she's coming.
Until all royal guards passed, Wei ruoyi still didn't see Xiao Jin. She was relieved.
When she sat back in the chair, she smiled slightly. Xiao Jin promised her not to appear in front of the princess. As expected, she really didn't appear in front of the princess.
It's not that she is so stingy that she wants to interfere with Xiao Jin's affairs, but Princess Rouran is threatening, and she has to guard against it.
Wei ruoyi looked at the princess honor guard passing downstairs wholeheartedly, but she didn't know that she was also being watched silently.
Xiao Ziya hid in the dark and didn't look away from Wei ruo's clothes.
In fact, even he couldn't tell what was good about Wei ruoyi, but her every move affected his mind.
People all over the world say that he is a devoted person. Since the death of his imperial concubine, he has never thought of a sequel. However, only Xiao Ziya knows that he is really a person who is not easy to be emotional, but he is not devoted to his imperial concubine, but the person who can let him sit in the opposite fence.
As for his imperial concubine, he silently sneered at the bottom of his heart. Why should he be moved by a woman who was arranged to report his every move?
The reason why he tolerated such a woman to stay with him was just to avoid startling the snake. However, he was careless and disabled himself.
The woman was not dead, but he killed her with his hands and feet.
He doesn't need a person who has a different purpose for him. There is no need for your majesty to plug another spy, so he becomes very "devoted".
If the last action he planned was successful, he should be sitting next to her and watching Princess Rouran's guard of honor with her.
What a pity.
"Into a book, you go and send this letter to the opposite side." Xiao Ziya took out a written letter from her sleeve, handed it to the attendant behind him, and said slowly.
"Yes." Cheng Shu took the letter and went out.
Xiao Ziya waited silently.
"Princess, someone sent a letter from Xiao Ziya of Gongbei palace." green Rui said angrily, "he still has the face to send a letter." she said angrily.
"Yes, he dares to send a letter to me?" Wei ruoyi was stunned at first, and then smiled faintly. She hasn't settled accounts with him for the last thing in another hospital!
According to Xiao Jin, Xiao Ziya should know and acquiesce in this matter.
She took him as a friend. Was that how he betrayed her?
Originally, he didn't want to take his letter at all, but after all, he couldn't resist his curiosity. Wei ruoyi still took the letter.
The letter didn't write too much. It just said that Xiao Ziya would wait for her under a big locust tree on the street corner outside the poetry club. He wanted to see her and apologize to her face to face. If she doesn't come, he will wait all the time.
"Shit!" Wei ruoyi threw the letter aside after reading it. He thought it was bad. Then he picked it up and asked Lvrui to give it to the young man of Gongbei palace waiting at the door. "When you go back to your childe, you say I'm not feeling well and can't go out. I'm sorry I won't see you!" who wants to see him. How big is his face? He's willing to wait, so keep waiting.
Anyway, she doesn't want to go at all.
Wei ruoyi's actions were brought into Xiao Ziya's eyes. As he had expected, he was not angry, but inadvertently smiled.
Look, she is so upright that she can't hide her joys and sorrows at all.
Why should a person who can't hide his feelings and is so exposed pretend to be ill?
Xiao Ziya was even more curious about the next move of the Wei mansion.
There must be something.
"Shizi, this letter has been returned." Cheng Shu ran back with the letter and said to Xiao Ziya.
"I know." Xiao Ziya nodded with a light smile. "It's necessary. I just let her know that it's going on. But she will certainly come to see me. Go and burn the letter."
"Yes." the book answered.
After the letter turned into ashes, Xiao Ziya said to Cheng Shu, "just push me under the big tree on the street corner outside the poetry club."
"OK." Cheng Shu nodded.
Since then, when people in the capital passed the big locust tree, they could see a young man wearing plain straight ornaments, with deep eyebrows and warm eyes, sitting in a wooden wheelchair and quietly waiting beside the big locust tree.
One day it was like this, the next day it was like this, and on the third day it spread.
On the fourth day, the news seemed to hold Princess Rouran to the capital. Everyone talked about it one after another. I didn't know what the childe of Gongbei palace was doing.
He seems to be waiting for someone, but who is he waiting for?
People's curiosity is always very heavy. Some people came around and found that Xiao Ziya's eyes were mild, but her face was much worse than before, pale and weak. Her body seemed to be in danger and had a sense of vulnerability.
