“……”

Mu Jing glass helplessly closed his eyes and sighed.

Want to hide after all or did not escape, is to avoid. But at the same time, she was relieved that something was finally clear.

Otherwise, in the other party did not make it clear, she would not be in a hurry to say anything.

Now that it's OK, she can say no.

After a moment of silence, she turned her head and looked at Chu Jinghong. She went back to him and said, "before I answer you, I want to ask a question first, OK?"

"Say it." Chu Jinghong nodded.

Mu Jingli looked into his eyes and said, "I want to know if what you just said is to ask for my opinion as brother Jinghong, or tell me about it as the prince of the day."

“…… Naturally, it's asking for your opinion. " Chu Jinghong's smile on his face gradually disappeared and his heart was full of five flavors.

Because what he saw from the other side's eyes was not joy and love, but a light guilt and alienation.

Even if the other party did not directly refuse, he had already guessed her intention.

Sure enough.

Listen to Mu Jingli way: "if so, then I can only say Sorry, I can't agree. It's not that you are not good enough, it's just that we are not suitable. And in a short period of time, I have no plans to talk about marriage. "

"I'm sorry."

After apologizing again, she turned and left the palace.

Chu Jinghong stood in the same place, staring at her back, slowly raised his hand and pressed to the position of the heart.

There, there is a trace of heartache.

It's not very strong. It's too strong for pain. However, it was dull and dull, and fermented little by little, which made him unable to ignore.

This is the first time he has been attracted to a woman.

I didn't expect that so soon

"Brother Huang?"

Chu Qingyan had planned to hide in the side to watch her express her feelings to Sister Li. She was even full of expectation, hoping that Sister Li would nod her head.

As the emperor said, the Empress Dowager and she like Sister Li very much. In addition, the emperor also likes her. In her mind, Sister Li is the most suitable candidate for the "Crown Princess".

Unexpectedly, she guessed the beginning correctly, but did not guess the ending.

Sister Li turned down the emperor.

The excitement didn't make it. Instead, he saw the lonely and sad scene of his brother.

As a sister, she couldn't stand by and try to comfort him.

After all, no one knows better than she how sad it is to be rejected by someone she likes. She doesn't want her brother to be like her. When she is sad, she doesn't even have a comforter.

But when she came out, she didn't know what to say.

Seeing her, Chu Qingyan bit her lip and said, "don't be sad, Sister Li She... "

"Brother Huang is OK."

Chu Jinghong reluctantly raised his lips and touched her hair. "Well, go and accompany the empress mother. The emperor still has something to do, so he can't go."

Words fall, did not wait for Chu Qingyan to speak, he lifted his step to leave Fengyi palace.

In the beginning, he walked very fast because he didn't want anyone to see his vulnerable side.

But as he walked, he slowed down, gradually adjusted his state, and became the prince's Royal Highness.

After half a ring.

Mu Jingli went back to Dingyuan Houfu with a lot of worries.

I don't know how to go back to the courtyard.

Standing quietly at the gate of the courtyard, she saw her grandfather forcing uncle Jiang to play chess with him again. Suddenly raised lips a smile, walked to the way: "grandfather, you are bullying people again?"

"You girl, what is bullying again? Can you talk? "

Muqin stroked his beard and snorted. He glared at Jiang Hongyi in disgust and waved, "go. I don't need you to accompany me. What should I do?"

"Girl, you sit down and accompany my grandfather to the next game."

With that, the old man began to clean up the chessboard.

Mu Jingli sat down on the opposite side, looking at the empty chessboard, somewhat absent-minded.

Seeing this, Muqin took the chess piece's hand and put it down again. He threw it back into the basket. "Tell me, what's the matter? Didn't you just go to the palace? Have you been bullied? "

"No

Mu Jingli shakes his head, which is regarded as an answer.

Then, he took the basket and prepared to play chess with the old man.

Who knows a look up, people did not move at all, still looked at her suspiciously.

Seeing this, she suddenly remembered that her former owner seemed to have been bullied and worried that the old man would not believe it. She had to emphasize again: "really not."

"Why are you so unhappy?"

Muqin was relieved and took up the pieces.

"Do you have any?" Mu Jingli felt his face, hesitated for a moment, and said, "grandfather, the crown prince just told me that the queen intended to ask for marriage and let me be the crown princess.""Because of this? What do you say? "

Muqin thinks that this is not a problem at all. His precious granddaughter, not to mention being a princess, is a queen

Bah, you can't marry that bad old man.

The queen will forget it.

However, in his heart, only other people do not deserve his baby granddaughter, there is no one he can not.

Mu Jing glass see his grandfather a face calm, shake his head, way: "I refused."

"No?"

Mu Qin Ben also thought that if his granddaughter wanted to, he would have to find a way to delay it. Because I can't bear it, I still want to stay around for two more years.

Who ever thought, unexpectedly refused!

After a moment's reaction, he asked, "why don't you like the prince?"

"I don't like it or not. I never thought about it. He is a good friend of my brother, and I treated him because of this. In my heart, he is just like his brother. How can he marry him to be a princess? Besides, I don't want to be involved with the royal family, and I have no plans to marry at present

Mu Jingli lied. Most of the reason why she was cured by Chu Jinghong was that Ling Yuan took away his spirit.

But it can't be said. It can only be explained again.

But that's not the point. The point is that she didn't want to marry the royal family at all, let alone marry so soon.

At the same time, Muqin didn't want to marry her so soon, which was in his favor.

So he nodded and said, "if you don't want to get married, you don't have to sacrifice your daughter's happiness for the glory of your family."

Smell speech, Mu Jing glass Leng for a moment.

Then, there is a warm current surging in my heart, extremely moved.

It seems nothing in modern times, but it is too precious under the ancient dynasty system of feudal society.

In ancient times, how many princes and nobles, officials and nobles, sacrificed their children's happiness in exchange for family interests and national interests?

Who really thinks about those who have been sacrificed?

But her grandfather put her happiness first and told her not to marry if she didn't want to.

To meet such a family is definitely the blessing of her last life!

Mu Jing Li nodded his head with a smile and said, "OK, that glass son will never marry, and stay with his grandfather for filial piety."
