Destiny in this life: Sisterly love is deep and dreams are sweet

Princess Anle took the two of them to the garden. Princess Anle chattered all the way, "I'm going to be bored to death these days, princess. It would be nice for you two to go to the palace to relieve your boredom."

"There is nothing interesting in this palace. I want to go out of the palace, but my father and mother do not agree. Every time I act like a spoiled child to my father, the eldest brother is always there and refuses to leave the palace every time. It is really annoying. ”

"Are you bored at home? Will Duke Ning's mansion be as boring as the palace?"

……

This was the first time that Lu Yanhua met someone who could talk better than her. It was like meeting a confidant. The most important thing was that this person was a princess. Being friends with a princess is like having a rich girl as your best friend, isn't it? This is a rare thing.

"Princess, I feel the same way. It's really boring to stay at home. My third brother has asked me to take him out to play many times, but the family has been very busy during this period and we can't go out at will. It's all boring. died!"

Princess Anle took her arm, and the two communicated cordially, while Lu Wanxi was left alone in embarrassment. Lu Wanxi stared at the two people dumbfounded. Sure enough, birds of a feather flock together and people fall into groups. These two people really met each other so late that they could chat for a whole day.

Lu Wanxi just smiled and said nothing and followed behind them. She knew Yan Hua's temperament and would definitely become good friends with Princess Anle, so there was no need to disturb them.

The three of them came to a pavilion in the garden and sat down. Princess Anle ordered someone to bring some pastries and tea. Lu Yanhua saw these exquisite pastries. These were pastries in the palace and could only be eaten by emperors and queens.

Lu Yanhua had secretly swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva, and Princess Anle warmly entertained her, "Try it! Let's chat while eating."

"Thank you princess, you're welcome to Yan Hua."

"Please!"

Princess Anle realized that she had just ignored Lu Wanxi, and said to her kindly: "Wanxi, you should also taste it."

"Thank you princess."

Princess Anle saw how the two behaved. Lu Wanxi was quiet and elegant, while Lu Yanhua was lively and cheerful. The two sisters were really completely different.

"I envy you sisters. At least you can have company and you don't have to be so bored."

Princess Anle is the seventh daughter of the Holy Emperor. There must be other princesses in this palace, but Princess Anle does not have a good relationship with her sisters, let alone play together.

"My father has many princesses, but I am the only one who is the legitimate princess, so none of my sisters like to play with me. The eldest brother and the fourth brother are very busy every day. I really want to be here in this palace. bored to death."

It turns out that princesses can be bored too, and they don’t have many friends.

"Princess, don't you have any friends?" Lu Yanhua asked.

Princess Anle sighed in a low voice, "Where are the friends? Regardless of the two of you now, don't I have friends?"

"You're right, we sisters are very willing to be friends with the princess." After all, who doesn't want to be friends with a noble princess?

"In the future, you can often attend palace banquets and come to play with me."

"must."

The three of them were chatting happily, and Murong Yu and Murong Yi were walking over. This was what the queen meant.

Princess Anle saw her two brothers and greeted them warmly, "Brother the First Emperor, Brother Four."

"Anle."

Lu Wanxi and Lu Yanhua turned their heads and saw the two of them walking towards them. They subconsciously stood up and stepped aside. The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

After all, that person is the prince, the future emperor. Murong Yi's eyes always gave people a feeling of coldness and indifference. This person really needed to be kept at a distance.

"Why are the two royal brothers free to come to Weiyang Palace today? Aren't you two busy all day? Even busier than my father. I haven't seen you for a long time."

"See His Highness the Crown Prince, Your Highness the King of Letters." Lu Wanxi and Lu Yanhua quickly bowed and saluted.

"Don't be too polite."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Lu Wanxi suddenly felt uncomfortable. This aura was so depressing that she did not dare to look directly at Murong Yi. His Royal Highness always has a cold face, just like every time he sees his math teacher, he feels inexplicably nervous and his heart beats wildly.

"I will not disturb your three highnesses." Lu Wanxi pulled Lu Yanhua and started to leave. When Lu Yanhua saw her frowning, he knew that she was nervous. Lu Wanxi has been like this since she was a child. She frowns whenever she gets nervous.

Lu Yanhua originally wanted to chat with Princess Anle for a while longer? In this situation, I can only leave first, "My maid, please leave."

Princess Anle wanted to stop them, but when she saw Murong Yi's eyes, she knew why they were leaving?

"Brother Emperor, can you stop keeping such a straight face? People are scared away by you."

Murong Yi looked innocent, what does this have to do with him? "Did Gu drive them away? Didn't they want to leave on their own?"

Princess Anle didn't even bother to explain to him, she just had a dull head, "No wonder people avoid you when they see you?"

"Anle, why are you talking to the emperor?" Murong Yu asked.

Princess Anle glanced at him, looking carefree, and he didn't look like a prince at all. "You two? Forget it, I'm going to find Wanxi Yanhua."

"Wanxi Yanhua? You mean the two girls from the Lu family."

Murong Yu and Murong Yi naturally didn't know what their names were. After all, a girl's maiden name could not be easily known to outsiders.

"Well! I'm leaving."

After Princess Anle left, Murong Yi murmured: "Qingyang and graceful, Yan Rushunhua, this is probably the origin of their names!"

"What?" Murong Yu didn't hear clearly.

"It's nothing. Let's go see our mother!"

"Oh!"

Arriving at the main hall of Weiyang Palace, the queen was still sitting on the phoenix throne. This flower appreciation banquet was held from time to time. She had long been tired of it, so she stopped joining in the fun.

"My son, please greet the queen mother."

"Get up."

The most gratifying thing for the queen is that she has three children by her side. This is where her confidence lies. At this age, she would not expect His Majesty's favor. Her son is the prince and she is the queen. She is already the winner and does not need to continue to compete with other women in the harem.

"Where's Anle? Haven't you seen her?"

"Yes, she went to find the two girls from the Lu family."

"She fell in love with those two girls." The queen stood up and slowly walked down from the hall, and the two people hurriedly stepped forward to help her.

Murong Yu said with a smile: "I just scolded my son-in-law and the emperor's brother. This girl is really becoming more and more insignificant."

"In front of the Lu sisters?"

"Yes!"

"Fortunately, I kept it secret from her. Otherwise, if she knew that your father had appointed the eldest daughter of the Lu family as the crown princess, I'm afraid the entire Jade City would know about it."

Murong Yu thought about it. Anle couldn't hide secrets in her heart, and she couldn't keep her mouth shut. "It's better to keep hiding it, otherwise she will expose this matter sooner or later."

The queen looked at Murong Yi and saw that he looked very poor, so she asked, "You look so bad. Did you stay up late to read the memorial again?"

"Mother, don't worry, my son is in good health."

"Even if you're in good health, you can't stand it. If you don't get enough sleep, you won't have the energy to do other things. If you put the cart before the horse like this, your body will collapse."

"Both sons and ministers listen to their mother, and they must pay more attention in the future."

Murong Yu sat aside, poured himself a cup of tea, took a piece of cake, and started eating and drinking.

The queen looked at him and then at Murong Yi. They were all born by herself. How could there be such a big difference? "Ayu, look what you look like? You can't imitate your imperial brother."

"Mother, the emperor is going to be the emperor, so many people are watching? Of course he has to put on an imposing posture all the time. My son and I don't have to be the emperor, we can do whatever is comfortable for us. ”

"As a royal child, so free and undisciplined, no wonder His Majesty has to reprimand you every time."

The relationship between Murong Yu and the Holy Master has always been tense, and the father and son would get into trouble every time they met. "My father is displeased with my son. It's not just a day or two. Is this what I still care about?"

Murong Yu couldn't stand the emperor's neglect of his mother and often neglected his mother. For this reason, he angered the emperor many times. As time went on, the relationship between father and son became increasingly cold.

"Ayu, what are you talking about? Father is also doing it for your own good."

"Forget it! Father, do you wish I was not his son?"

"Shut up! The more you talk, the more unruly you become."

Murong Yu was born to have free sex and disliked being constrained by rules and regulations. Seeing that his mother had been living with rules all his life, but still couldn't be liked by her husband, he hated those rules even more.

"My mother always talks about the rules every day, but my father still dislikes my mother for being dull and boring. Since my father doesn't care anymore, why should my mother care?"

The queen was completely irritated now, "You are so outrageous. Is it that I have been too indulgent in your daily life to even say such a thing?"

"Why don't you quickly apologize to your mother?"

Murong Yu knelt down and apologized, "I know I was wrong."

The queen was indeed so angry that even her son didn't understand her. She had followed the rules her whole life, but in the end her husband didn't like it and her son didn't understand her either. So what has she been doing all her life?

The queen threw away her sleeves and entered the inner hall.

Murong Yi scolded sternly: "What are you talking about? You know clearly that your mother..."

Murong Yu stood up and said: "Now that my mother knows this, she no longer has any hope for my father. People with discerning eyes dare not say that my father spoils his concubines and destroys his wife. It is because he is afraid of his majesty, but if it is you and I as sons, we will not Say, then who can protect the queen mother?"

Murong Yi naturally knew all this. During the holy month, except for entering the Weiyang Palace on the 15th day of the lunar month as usual, he spent the rest of the day staying with the concubines in the Sixth Palace. Weiyang Palace is very deserted, but as a queen, the mother must be aware of the general situation and be sensible. She must not have any complaints, let alone be jealous. Because she is a queen and a role model for women in the world.

"The queen is a queen, the first among women in the world. There are certain things that the queen must bear."

Murong Yu looked at him with doubts in his eyes. In the future, he would also be the emperor. He would also sit on the dragon throne and rule the world.

By then, with three palaces, six courtyards, and three thousand beauties in the harem, there is no guarantee that he will not become the second father.

"Brother, I have forgotten that you are also going to be the emperor. There will be many women in the future, and you will also become the second emperor. So do you particularly understand the emperor and want to be him? "

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

"Did I say something wrong? When you ascend the throne as emperor, will you allow Miss Lu to be your exclusive favorite?"

Murong Yi really couldn't. The harem was related to the previous dynasty, so he wanted to admit the daughters of courtiers into the harem. After he marries Lu Wanxi, the daughters of the courtiers will also enter the East Palace and become his concubines.

"The former dynasty and the harem..."

"Don't use the former harem as an excuse. If you can't do it, you can't do it. If you have the intention, what if your father accepts those women into the harem? He will definitely not neglect the mother for this, but what will be the result? The mother will be alone day and night. Staying in the empty house and weeping, the father is immersed in the tenderness of other women. Is this fair to the mother?" Murong Yu just felt sorry for the mother, and felt sorry for the mother's efforts over the years to manage the harem and discipline the concubines for the father. She should not Being treated like this by my father.

Murong Yi was speechless, but he would never be like his father. Even if he had no true feelings for Lu Wanxi now, he would definitely not neglect her and would respect and favor her.

"That's enough. Don't say these words again. If they reach the ears of your father..."

"Am I still afraid of him?"

"Murong Yu, are you crazy?"

Murong Yu snorted lightly, shook his sleeves angrily, and walked away.

Murong Yi knew that when he grew up, he had a bad temper and had been unruly since he was a child. He never followed many rules in the palace.

But he is a royal child after all, and he often has to abide by these rules. The emperor's family also has the helplessness of the emperor's family, no one can do whatever they want.

Murong Yu walked out of the main hall angrily. Many girls from aristocratic families came back from admiring flowers and went to see the queen. They happened to meet Murong Yu unexpectedly.

The moment these girls from aristocratic families saw Murong Yu, their eyes immediately lit up. They hugged him one by one, bowed and saluted, "My maid, please see His Highness King Xin."

Murong Yu ignored them at all, walked around them and said perfunctorily, "No courtesy."

Only a back view was left for the ladies of the aristocratic family to appreciate.

Murong Yu's direct disregard made everyone feel disappointed. Murong Yu is the legitimate son of the Holy Emperor. Although his temperament is a little loose, he is a martial arts prodigy and prides himself on being the best in the world in martial arts. At a young age, he has already been on the battlefield and made meritorious deeds. All beauties love heroes, let alone young heroes.

Murong Yu's popularity among the girls of the Yujing City aristocratic family is no less popular than that of the prince Murong Yi.

Princess Anle and Lu Wanxi Lu Yanhua were walking towards each other. Princess Anle greeted him kindly, "Brother Four Emperors."

But Murong Yu simply ignored them and passed by Lu Yanhua. Lu Wanxi and Lu Yanhua were still saluting, but Murong Yu didn't even pay attention to them.

Seeing that he didn't pay any attention to her, Princess Anle became furious, "Have I offended you? I owe you for getting angry with me."

Immediately afterwards, Murong Yi came out of the main hall. The two brothers were exactly the same, and they also didn't look good on them.

"One or two, what happened today? They are not normal." Princess Anle complained.

Lu Wanxi just noticed that Murong Yi's expression was very bad, and he seemed to have glanced at her intentionally or unintentionally, but she was wrong.

Finally, when it was time to leave the palace, Lu Wanxi and Lu Yanhua followed the nanny who took them into the palace. This journey is quite a long one.

Lu Yanhua regretted it now and took back what she had said. She was no longer looking forward to coming to the palace. The palace is too big, the road is too long, and my feet are sore and painful.

Finally walking out of the palace, the two said goodbye to their grandmother and got on the carriage home.

After getting on the carriage, Lu Yanhua could finally rest for a while, "I never want to enter the palace again. It's too tiring. I think of how tired I was when I went to the Forbidden City before. If there is a sedan, it's not called a sedan, it's called a carriage, right? ! How nice it would be to carry us into the palace."

Lu Wanxi beat her calf and said with a smile: "You are not a big shot. I have to prepare a chariot to flatter you."

"When I entered the palace today, there was nothing special. I didn't see anything. I just chatted with Princess Anle, but this princess is quite nice. She has no airs at all and is quite amiable."

"Princess Anle has a cheerful temperament. We hit it off right away. It's really easy to get along with you."

Lu Yanhua came to her side, held her arm, and asked: "Sister, why do I have a hunch that this flower viewing banquet seems like the queen came to see you on purpose?"

"What do you mean?"

"Think about it! The Queen met us alone, so she must want to meet you! Could it be that she wants to meet me?"

Lu Wanxi thought about it, maybe she was observing the princess for His Royal Highness. "Anyway, no matter what the reason is, we should be able to pass safely."

"That's for sure. I must have passed the test safely. I also made Princess Anle a friend, which is a big gain."

"Correct!"

Lu Yanhua looked at her with evil eyes, and Lu Wanxi guessed that she was harboring something evil in her heart. "What do you want to do again?"

"Sister, you have met the prince several times. Do you have any feelings for him?"

"How can I feel if I don't feel anything?"

"Really not?"

"Really not." Lu Wanxi said so decisively that Lu Yanhua could not see any flaws.

"I didn't lie, but why not?"

"Why? I fell in love with you after we met three times. Isn't this just pure love?"

"That's true, whether you like it or not, if you like the prince, you will be the only one who gets hurt in the end." Lu Yanhua thought of what Princess Anle said to her today, and when talking about her sisters, she didn't want her own sister It would be disgusting to share a man with so many women in the future.

Lu Wanxi also saw many concubines and princesses today. If she wants to be a princess, she will inevitably have to share Murong Yi with another woman, but as a modern person, she recognizes monogamous marriage. But now she is required to accept her husband's three wives and four concubines, and she must be generous and not jealous. This is really difficult for her.

"Yan Hua, have you ever thought about how we will live here if we can't go back to modern times and have to live here for the rest of our lives?"

Lu Yanhua really didn't expect, "How else can I live? Just live how you want!"

"Then if you are married and your husband has another woman, what should you do?"

Lu Yanhua naturally rejects this, but this is the status quo of this era, and they cannot change it. What should I do if I can’t change? We can only be forced to accept, accept everything of this era, and eventually be assimilated by this era.

"Sister, we can't change anything? The two of us alone are unable to fight against this era. Maybe we can only be forced to accept it all, recognize the reality, and live hard."

Lu Wanxi probably couldn't do it. She couldn't be so generous and force herself to accept a man she didn't love, and she had to live with him day and night, have children, and he would even have many women.

"But I can't accept it. The thoughts and morals I've learned don't allow me to accept all this."

"But what if you don't accept it? In this era, except for me and you, we have the same ideas, the idea of ​​equality between men and women, the idea of ​​freedom of love, and freedom of marriage. But there are only two of us. If we don't accept it, Fight against this era. We are only two people, there are countless of them, we cannot win, this is a losing game. We have already lost before it even starts."

Lu Yanhua was right, this was a losing game and they had already lost.

"Sister, it doesn't matter, as long as we don't get tempted. The worst thing we can do is live together. Why do we have to pursue perfect love? We live in modern times, how much truly perfect love is there? Why do two people stay together for a lifetime? In ancient times, It’s a joke, isn’t it in modern times?”

"We are post-[-]s. Love is no longer a necessity, it is dispensable. A sober post-[-]s can live a good life alone."

Lu Yanhua is more transparent than Lu Wanxi, who is more like a traditional girl. She has been a good girl since she was a child, longing for a beautiful and romantic love and building a happy family. But here, none of this is possible.

Lu Yanhua has a muddle-through mentality. For her, love is dispensable. When love comes, she will take it seriously and have a vigorous love affair. Even if love disappears, she will not be sad about it. She will say goodbye generously and look forward to the next relationship, or not look forward to it anymore.

Some things are not necessarily obtained. Getting something doesn't necessarily mean you will be happy, and not getting it doesn't necessarily mean you will be unhappy. Keep an optimistic attitude. Such people will live well wherever they go.

Adapting to a strange environment and a strange era. Although you don’t agree with some of the concepts of this era, you need to try to accept them. Because you don't accept it, everyone will treat you as a lunatic and an outlier.

Every era has its own ideological concepts. It is not easy to break through the shackles of ideological concepts. The founding of New China and years of hard work have allowed the feudal dross to disappear, but it has not completely disappeared yet.

Living in an era with strong feudal ideas, their ideas themselves are a destruction to this era, and how can people of this era allow them to destroy their original ideas and concepts?

"Yan Hua, I understand what you said, but it's really difficult to accept it."

"Sister, it's okay, am I still here? I will always be with you, and we will never be separated."

Lu Wanxi held her hand tightly. The greatest luck in her life was to have Lu Yanhua as her sister. They have to walk together on the way forward, holding each other's hands and continuing to walk.
