Shangguan Wanning's voice was very light, but it seemed like a sharp blade pierced into Mu Jingrui's heart.
"What does it mean to not go back?" Mu Jingrui grabbed Shangguan Wanning and forced her to look at him face to face. "Shangguan Wanning, come and tell me why can't you go back?"
"Because... a person cannot be resurrected."
Mu Jingrui was stunned and grabbed Shangguan Wanning's hand and slowly dropped.
"You should be clear that those are forced by the situation. In my subjective consciousness, I never thought of hurting your family."
"I understand, I can only say that there may be a little bit of fate between you and me. God's will is hard to violate, so you cannot force it."
Shangguan Wanning no longer dodged the sight of Jingrui because she didn't know if she would have a chance in the future, and then stared at him at such a close distance.
"I hope even more, in the future... the same is true. No matter what happens, please don't hurt my family anymore."
Mu Jingrui's clenched fists gradually loosened. He looked at Shangguan Wanning, and his eyes gradually became colder.
"Shangguan Wanning, you hear it clearly, I never believe in God's will. I only know that the woman I want must be obtained. If you say you can't force it, I will force it. You can only be mine in your life.
people."
After Mu Jingrui finished speaking, he left with angrily.
Shangguan Wanning felt exhausted and slowly squatted down on the rockery.
She had a premonition that the future would probably never be peaceful again.
After the dinner, Shangguan Wanning was depressed and fell asleep when she got home. When she woke up the next morning, she saw Lutong wandering anxiously outside the door.
"What's wrong?" Shangguan Wanning sat in front of the dressing mirror, picked up the comb and combed her long hair. "It's rare that you were not on duty last night, and you didn't even sleep in."
"Miss, I heard a message, I don't know if it's true or not." Lu Tong sent off the two little maids who were serving him and took the comb from Shangguan Wanning.
Shangguan Wanning laughed out loud. "You girl, you can receive rumor all day long. I'm very curious. Who told you."
"Oh, Miss, I'm serious about you. I heard that during the morning court, Qi Yanbei, the king of Qi State, wrote a letter to the emperor, hoping to marry the princess of the Celestial Dynasty and return to the southwest Qi State together."
"What?"
Shangguan Wanning's body stiffened and she turned her head to look at Lutong. "Where did you hear it? Is it true or false?"
"I don't know who came out, but now there are people talking about it in the streets and alleys."
Shangguan Wanning's heart couldn't help but feel a layer of haze.
Several princesses of the emperor are now married, and they are not as old as marriage. Even if there are, the emperor probably cannot bear to marry his daughter from afar.
Since ancient times, how many people who have gone to marry are real princesses.
In this way, the one who is selected to marry must be the daughter of the prince or the princess who have been awarded.
And she happened to be the princess's name, and because of the queen mother's favor, she also enjoyed the treatment of a first-class princess.
Shangguan Wanning suddenly remembered Qi Yanbei's meaningful smile last night, and couldn't help but shivering.
"Miss?" Lu Tong gently patted Shangguan Wanning's shoulder and asked with concern, "Are you okay? Actually, you don't have to worry too much. The master is powerful in the court and will not let you suffer any grievances.
”
Shangguan Wanning forced a smile.
I am afraid that when things come, there will be too many people who cannot help themselves.
Sure enough, my father was frowning after returning to the mansion, obviously he was also worried about this.
Shangguan Wanning was invited to taste tea and discuss poetry with a few ladies who were waiting for their names. They also mentioned Qi Yanbei. Everyone was worried that they would be picked by the emperor. In order to avoid marrying far away, a few girls had to do it for them.
He made a marriage and got married in a short time.
Shangguan Wanning returned home with great worries. As soon as the butler got off the carriage, she came up to meet her.
"Miss, a guest is here at home. The master told you to go back to the room directly from the back door."
"back door?"
Shangguan Wanning frowned and asked dissatisfiedly: "What kind of customer has come? I'm going to go through the back door?"
"Yes..." The housekeeper wanted to speak but stopped.
Shangguan Wanning became even more unhappy and walked in bypassing the butler. When she was about to walk to the hall, she seemed to realize something and gradually slowed down.
But it was too late to look back at this time.
In the hall, Mu Jingrui was sitting at Shangguan Yue's lower head. Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere seemed a little nervous.
"Dad." Shangguan Wanning walked in with her teeth hardened her teeth.
Mu Jingrui stood up and his eyes were fixed on her.
"Sir Shangguan should listen to Ning'er's own opinions and whether he is willing to marry me?"
Shangguan Wanning was a little surprised. She thought that what Mu Jingrui said that "only demands" was just a momentary angry word. Why did she come to force the marriage today?
Shangguan Yue lowered his head and remained silent.
Mu Jingrui came to the door now to ask for the marriage of Shangguan Wanning, which was simply taking advantage of others' danger, but he was helpless.
Today, in the court, the emperor has hinted to three court officials to go home to do a good job of comforting their daughter, and their daughter will be chosen by Qi Yanbei.
Unfortunately, Shangguan Wanning is one of them.
"Since ancient times, marriage has been the order of parents, and the words of the matchmaker are not her own turn."
Mrs. Shangguan walked over with the help of her maid, and Shangguan Yue stood up to greet her.
"Madam, if you are in poor health, don't walk everywhere. The weather is cold today, what should I do if I catch a cold?"
Mrs. Shangguan ignored her husband's concern. When she saw Mu Jingrui and Shangguan Wanning both looked at each other, her nameless anger surged in her heart.
"Ninger, come here."
Shangguan Wanning walked to her mother and shouted softly. "Mom."
"Mr. Mu, you did have a engagement with Ning'er before, but we have returned the token and your engagement has been abandoned. If you think we are doing something wrong, you can go to Jingzhao Prefecture to the Ministry of Justice, or even sue the emperor.
us."
When Mrs. Shangguan saw Mu Jingrui, she would think of the desolation and tragic nature of the Zheng family. The tragic death of her father and brother made her feel resentful.
"You came to ask for marriage to Ning'er today, but you just felt that we were reluctant to let her marry far away. You guessed it, we were reluctant to let her go. However, if you can avoid this disaster when you get married, then let her get married.
There are so many good men in the world, it’s not that you have to do with it.”
Mu Jingrui didn't want to have a conflict with Mrs. Shangguan, he knew that Shangguan Wanning cared about this mother the most.
But if he wanted him to watch his lover get married, how could he remain indifferent?
"Is that true?" Mu Jingrui smiled coldly, "I really want to know who in the entire capital, besides me, dares to marry your daughter."
