Hearing this, Chu Miaoer's beautiful eyes were looking forward to it, and she was surprised and shy in her heart. She bit her lip lightly, and her ears were stained with a thin blush.
Seeing her expression, Chu Xiong understood immediately.
When the Empress came to see him yesterday, she gave him many instructions not to cause any trouble because of this incident, which would affect Chu Xianxue's reputation. During today's banquet, I saw her flirting with His Highness the Prince, and I suddenly realized that I couldn't let it happen.
I can bear it.
"Could it be that you already have?!"
Seeing the anger hidden in her father's eyes, Chu Xianxue was ashamed and annoyed, and was so anxious that she couldn't speak clearly: "No, no, no -"
Chu Xiong breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Chu Xianxue's face turned red and eager to defend herself.
"Dad, for the election of the Crown Princess, please submit my name."
"Confused!" Chu Xiong blurted out, and the anger that had disappeared immediately started to rise, "Dad has offended the Queen Mother in order to resist your marriage, and now you still want to enter the royal family! Are you worthy of Daddy?!"
Chu Xianxue had never been yelled at by her father before, and she suddenly felt aggrieved. After a while, her tears fell like pearls in a row.
She blinked her eyes gently and said angrily: "Dad, Fu Lilian said he would treat me well. He is as gentle as jade and is considerate to Xue'er. He will definitely not let me down."
Seeing her like this, Chu Xiong was heartbroken, and most of his anger was gone.
"Xue'er, listen to daddy..."
Chu Xiong looked at her tearful eyes and said helplessly: "His Royal Highness is gentle and gentle, and he is kind to others. At this time, he is only nice to you because of your appearance, but your appearance will always get old one day. He can still be loyal to you now."
Baishun, after he becomes an emperor from now on, there will be countless beauties in the harem, and concubines will be chosen every year, what will you do then?"
Chu Xianxue shook her head with tears in her eyes. The tears slid down the sides of her pink cheeks to the skirt of her clothes. In an instant, the snow-white skirt of her clothes was stained with circles of tears.
"Dad, he won't. He said he would treat Xueer well forever..."
Chu Xiong patiently explained to her: "Although he has been named the crown prince, the real power is still in the hands of the current emperor. He is a very powerful person. Even I need to think for a moment before speaking. You are kind-hearted by nature, and you are spoiled to be so pampered."
You have a willful temper, how can you deal with it in a place that eats people without spitting out their bones!"
Chu Xianxue, who had just begun to fall in love, was all about Fu Lilian. His gentleness and considerateness made Chu Xianxue fall in love, and she was unable to listen to Chu Xiong's teachings.
Unable to convince her father at this moment, she squatted on the ground and burst into tears.
Several times he wanted to reach out to comfort him, but Chu Xiong endured it. He looked at Chu Xianxue and said resolutely: "You don't even think about choosing a concubine for the prince. Dad will help you find a young master among the nobles. He will not let you spend the rest of your life."
Suffer the slightest grievance."
"I don't want—I don't want daddy—"
Chu Xiong was filled with regret. He walked to the door, hesitated again and again, and ordered: "The day Miss Third figures it out, she will be let out."
"Yes, sir." The boy standing at the door replied respectfully.
Hearing that her father was about to ground her, Chu Xianxue looked up at him in disbelief, her voice trembling slightly: "Daddy——"
But Chu Xiong didn't even look at her and left directly.
The young man saw the usually pretty and charming third young lady lying on the ground crying bitterly, and he couldn't help but feel heartbroken. First the eldest young lady, then the second young lady, and then the third young lady...
He sighed slightly and closed the door softly, cutting off all movement in the room.
...
As soon as Chu Xiong returned to the courtyard, Mei Qianrou came to greet him. She had obviously been waiting in the house for a long time.
The maid had come to report before and heard that her precious daughter was under house arrest. Although Mei Qianrou was anxious, she could see the frown on Chu Xiong's face and knew that she could no longer annoy him at this time.
With a smile, she pulled Chu Xiong to sit at the round table and said, "Master, are you tired? Rou'er will help you massage your shoulders."
She knew him best, so Chu Xiong closed his eyes comfortably and enjoyed the deep and shallow massage on his shoulders, with appropriate intensity.
"Are you comfortable, sir?"
"Um."
Mei Qianrou was so beautiful, especially her eyes were always watery, she looked charming, and her speech was soft and waxy. I remembered the first time I met Mei Qianrou, after sending Chu Miaoer to Dongling.
On the way back, she was only a young girl. She fell in love with her at first sight, as if her soul had been taken away. Even after many days back, she could not erase that smile. After a long search, she found out that she was Bian Jingmei.
The daughter of the family, so she went to ask for marriage in person. Now that she is an old lady, her charm is still there, and Chu Xianxue has completely inherited her beauty.
Thinking of this, Chu Xiong sighed.
Er Yatou herself is weak-tempered. She knew clearly that the emperor had a grudge against the fourth prince Fu Yunqi, but for Xueer, she still sent Chu Miaoer to the palace to marry him. Isn't this a wolf entering the tiger's mouth? Fortunately, I met Er Yatou and Fu Yunqi today.
People have great feelings, which can be regarded as reducing some of their sins. How come Xueer doesn't know her good intentions?!
The more Chu Xiong thought about it, the angrier he became. He felt dizzy as his energy and blood surged upwards.
"Master, Xue'er is ignorant. Don't argue with her. You'll be angry and hurt yourself."
Seeing his shortness of breath, Mei Qianrou slowly pressed Chu Xiong's temples while thinking about how to make Chu Xianxue stop thinking about the Crown Princess.
"Hey -" Chu Xiong sighed and said, "I hope she won't be confused and understand our good intentions as soon as possible."
After more than ten years of marriage, Chu Xiong is still obedient to Mei Qianrou and loves her house as much as she loves her. Therefore, Chu Xianxue has become his sweetheart since she was born, and he can't wait to hold her in his arms every day.
"Xue'er is young and doesn't understand the sinister nature of people's hearts." Mei Qianrou's eyes suddenly lit up. She leaned over Chu Xiong's ear and said as if she had thought of something: "Master, why don't we go find the Queen?
Her son must have a way to cut off their thoughts."
Hearing this, Chu Xiong's eyes flashed. He put his hand on his shoulder and said softly, "I am really lucky to have Rou'er by my side."
Mei Qianrou smiled coquettishly: "Marrying the master is also the luck of Rou'er's life."
The sunset comes at night.
The cold moonlight shines all over the earth, but it cannot illuminate the gloomy and dark corners of people's hearts.
...
The night goes by and the sun rises.
The next morning, the sky was just beginning to turn white.
Chu Miaoer turned over, but the warm embrace was no longer there. When she reached out and touched it, she found that the bed beside her was already cold. She yawned deeply and got up from the bed.
When he opened the door, he saw the figure dancing a sword in the yard. Sure enough, he was here. Chu Miaoer smiled. Not wanting to disturb him, he signaled Baitao to be quiet and found a comfortable position to lean against the doorpost.
Watch.
I saw him wearing strong clothes, holding a long sword, with a faint cold light, moving quickly. His wrist moved slightly, and the long sword moved with the wrist. The faster the wrist, the sword light flashed, and suddenly his hand stretched forward with force,
The scattered petals on the ground were picked up by the sword energy and rolled into the air. For a moment, a faint floral fragrance floated in the air. The fragrance was so fragrant that Chu Miaoer couldn't help but take a big breath.
I really want to!
Fu Yunqi threw the sword to Tingfeng aside with his backhand, and walked towards Chu Miao'er with a smile.
"Baitao, prepare hot water." Chu Miaoer turned around and ordered.
Sweat wetted his robe, and heat emerged from all sides of his body and then rose to the sky, soaked in sweat. As Fu Yunchi walked towards her, he reached out to roll up his sleeves, revealing a strong forearm and the back of his hand.
The veins were bulging, and sweat followed the lines of his arms, collecting from various places to his elbows and dripping on the ground.
"woke up?"
Chu Miaoer nodded.
He stood a foot away from Chu Miao'er, fearing that the smell of sweat would get on Chu Miao'er's body.
"Teach me two ways to defend yourself some other time. If you encounter the same situation again in the future, I will be able to help you." Chu Miaoer turned around and walked into the house with him and said seriously.
Fu Yunqi just thought she was joking and looked at her weak body in silence. How could such a body endure all these hardships? After thinking for a moment, he nodded: "Okay, let's start from tomorrow. Practice the basic skills first.
Even if you can’t learn one move or a half, it can still be used as a way to strengthen your body.”
Seeing the smile in his eyes, Chu Miaoer pouted and turned away.
Fu Yunqi smiled and shook his head, then turned and entered the bathhouse.
Inserting the turquoise steps into her hair, Baitao praised with satisfaction: "The princess is so beautiful——"
Chu Miaoer raised her eyes. Today, Baitao gave her a fragrant bun with a close-up to the clouds. Simply decorating it with a hairpin gave her an extraordinary appearance. It must be said that the aesthetics of this little girl Baitao matched hers.
taste.
Seeing that she was looking carefully, Baitao covered her mouth and said with a smile: "The princess is more beautiful than before. The prince must be responsible for this."
The woman in the mirror has picturesque eyebrows, glossy lips, and bright eyes. She is less childish and more charming. She looks the same as before, but upon closer inspection, she is very different.
Chu Miaoer glanced sideways, smiled and cursed: "Little girl, you are not ashamed."
Baitao disagreed.
"Princess, which pair of earrings should we wear today?" Baitao picked up a pair of emerald earrings and said excitedly, "Princess, how about this? It goes well with the hairpin."
Chu Miaoer looked at the pair of earrings. They indeed matched today's hairpin, but she wanted to wear that pair.
Clear almond eyes carefully searched through the dazzling array of jewelry boxes.
found it!
She took the golden square box in the corner. A delicate magnolia flower was carved on the surface of the box, with hollow flower carvings around it. Chu Miaoer slowly opened it, and a pair of white jade earrings inlaid with gold suddenly appeared in front of their eyes. They were small and exquisite.
"Aren't these the pair of white jade earrings given by the prince in Xiling? I was so confused that I forgot about them." Baitao blamed herself.
Chu Miaoer raised her hand and touched it, and there was still a slight warmth on it.
Fu Yunqi, who was better dressed, came out and saw Chu Miaoer sitting in front of the mirror with her head bowed and a smile. He walked over and sat next to her.
"Miaomiao, I don't know how to tie my hair."
Seeing this, Baitao quickly picked up the wooden comb and said: "Your Majesty, let me help you tie your hair. I used to always praise my skills!"
The surrounding air instantly dropped to freezing point, and Bai Tao suddenly felt cold.
Looking at his dark face, Chu Miaoer chuckled, stood up, took Baitao's comb, and said with a smile: "I'll do it."
After hearing this, Fu Yunqi's complexion improved.
