Hotaru [The Tale of Genji]

In this world, nothing is more miserable than a daughter's home.Born in the world, there is no freedom at all.If you were born in the mountains and wild, without trivial etiquette, you may be carefree.At the beginning of spring, I found an infatuated man.But this noble daughter can only be locked in the deep courtyard, if she meets someone who is affectionate and righteous.But if you marry a flirtatious, heartless man who has nothing to offer, this life will be really miserable.

Although Dong Gongxia is not such a heartless person, the burden attached to him is hard work that ordinary people cannot understand.

His Highness Prince Ying was not the first to know about Honghui Palace's plan.The first person to get the news was Dong Gong.

Today, Prince Ying was dealing with official duties when he heard someone outside lift the curtain to report that the East Palace had arrived.Before he could say please hurry up, Suzaku came in hastily.

"Yingying, mother wants me to marry your younger sister on purpose. I think it's not right after thinking about it, let's think about what we can do."

"My younger sister?" The fourth prince was taken aback for a moment before confirming, "You mean, my uncle's eldest daughter?"

"Exactly..."

The fourth prince couldn't laugh or cry for a while.

This is really funny, I don't know if Honghuidian knew that Jinshang had the same plan, but was rejected.I thought the matter was over, but now another incident happened, what a coincidence.However, the right minister of Honghui Hall is not as easy to talk to as His Majesty.Using coercion has always been what they are good at.

Come to think of it, Suzaku rushed here as soon as he got the news.

Donggong didn't notice the strange expression of the fourth prince, and sighed to himself: "Oh, I don't know why she has such a plan."

"Eh? Suzaku doesn't want to marry?"

"I don't mean that..." Suzaku shook his head, and was afraid that he would misunderstand Shangying's gaze, so he hurriedly explained: "Ah, I'm not saying that the general's daughter is bad, but... I don't want to just hurt her like this." An innocent daughter."

In this secular world, there are many people who put their own happiness first, and don't think about others at all; there are also many people who move their resentment and anger.Only those with power can contend against one or two, but the weak and innocent are more likely to be tortured to death.Ying treats Suzaku with sincerity and sincerity, if at this time because of her own fault, Yingying's elders and relatives are involved, how can Suzaku feel sorry for it?

These words made His Royal Highness Ying's mood churn.He stopped writing and stared at Suzaku's side face in a daze - Suzaku was frowning slightly at this time, reflecting his repeated melancholy.When the lotus in the pond is raining, the temperament is elegant and misty, which makes people feel infinite yearning and love.No matter what the East Palace looked like, His Highness always felt that he couldn't get enough of it, and was deeply infatuated with it.When he doesn't see him for a while, he thinks hard, wishing he could be by Suzaku's side all the time.

He thought of the unspeakable feelings in his heart, which tossed and tossed every day with nowhere to resolve them.Falling in love with the person in front of me, I just feel sweet when I think of all the things I get along with him on weekdays.But he didn't know anything about his own feelings, and he couldn't reciprocate the same feelings, which made His Royal Highness Ying feel bitter.Thinking that if Suzaku had something to belong to one day, his unwillingness and anger made the Fourth Highness breathless.Unable to bear the turbulent feelings in his heart, the prince tentatively asked: "Suzaku...doesn't she have any plans to get married?"

The East Palace was silent, the pen in Prince Ying's hand was about to be broken by him.

"No..." After a long time, Suzaku spit out, "Although it's a bit outrageous, but... I really have no intention of getting married."

The Fourth Highness loosened his hand, his face turned slightly warmer, and put down the brush in his hand as if nothing had happened, and listened to His Majesty Donggong's continuation.

"Marrying me...will definitely be tortured. Those girls are so innocent, how can I ask them to suffer the same hardships as me? And my mother and grandfather are my people after all, that is..." Said Donggong paused here, with a look of pain and disappointment on his face, "I have half the blood that my mother gave me, and I can't abandon it."

When you were young, why didn't you admire Shaoai?It's just that those sweet and sour thoughts are now just yellowed papers that are dryly collected in a box and shelved.Occasionally, in the past years, I unintentionally turned over, and a piece or two of my heart fell out, but I never had the courage to describe it again.

And what destroys them is the brand that cannot be discarded on oneself.Even if you are painful and disappointed, you can't deny half of your life just because of this.Then grit your teeth and go on your own.

His Royal Highness Ying lowered his eyes, he naturally thought of the little things that he found in the old deeds in Zhaoyang House that day.Thinking back then, Dong Gong had already made such a determination, so he calmly put away the old poems without nostalgia.The fourth prince knew that Suzaku wasn't lying, but the helpless sadness like a gap in his heart still couldn't be resolved.

He moved the short table between himself and Donggong, and grabbed the corner of Donggong's sleeve:

"Then...if there are heirs who are forcing you...how will you deal with yourself?"

"I can't protect myself yet, how dare I speak of my hope for an heir?" Donggong smiled bitterly, and patted Prince Ying's hand, "What's more, there are you, Guang and Fifth Brother."

His Royal Highness didn't answer, but shook his hand back, and said softly: "I will always be with you."

Suzaku had already been comforted by such a frank Fourth Highness countless times, he let the Fourth Highness hold him tightly, freed up his other hand, and scratched Prince Ying's nose, "Then, do you want to spend the rest of your life? Accompany the emperor?"

Prince Ying's heart trembled violently.He looked at Donggong in astonishment, the words just now ringing in his ears.A strong impulse surged up, making him unable to calm down any longer.His Royal Highness was almost about to say yes, and almost felt that his heart could finally be expressed clearly.

"Hahaha—Imperial Brother is teasing you," Suzaku couldn't help laughing at the astonished face of the fourth prince, "If I can see Yingying safe and happy, and my son is filial and my wife is virtuous, I don't think it's in vain." In this life, no matter what, I ask Ying to go on happily and worry-free."

The heartbeat that was throbbing with arrogance returned to peace, bringing a more gloomy loss than before.His Highness held the erratic heart, put away the emotions in his eyes, silently withdrew his hands and did not speak.

That night, Prince Ying dreamed of the East Palace again.

The self in the dream seemed to be bigger than now, and he could hold Suzaku with one arm.The Fourth Highness in the dream held Suzaku's shoulders and hugged him.Dong Gong's messy long hair rose up with the movements, like flowing water in a mountain stream.

The fragile and slender neck was raised, with a very pleasing curve.Obviously he couldn't hear anything, but his slightly parted lips seemed to utter a witty remark that made the Fourth Highness not want to wake up.The Donggong in the dream opened those glistening eyes, and gave Prince Ying a soft, shallow look——

The style of this glance seems to say: "You, do you want to stay with me all the time?"

His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince woke up in the silence of the night.When the dream comes back, the ecstasy is still there, and at the same time it brings a deeper and wider sense of loss.

……

There are always strange and puzzling things happening in the court.

Originally, the right minister was dissatisfied with the master of the inner government because of many things, but he dared not offend.He always stabs it from time to time, but the master of the inner palace is watertight, and there is nothing he can do except that it is not pleasing to the eye.But recently, anyone with a discerning eye in the court can see that the right minister is trying his best to win over and even curry favor with the inner minister.

His posture and strength are bigger than before.What is the reason for this?

Not long after, the Honghui Palace held a grand palace banquet on the grounds that the peonies in the palace were in full bloom, and invited the daughters of various ministers to come in to enjoy the flowers.At the flower banquet, the daughters’ families were very happy to compose poems and paint pictures.The Queen of Honghui Palace even said bluntly that the daughter of the eldest son of the Minister of Internal Affairs, the female son called Wutong Ji is the most poetic and picturesque, and gave her a evaluation of love like a peony.

After this action, everyone understands.Honghuidian and the right minister are planning to marry the granddaughter of the inner minister for the East Palace.

I don't know how other people will react, but the eldest son of the Minister of Internal Affairs, the General, is really worried.At that time, he also wanted to marry his daughter to Donggong, but was awakened by his father.Now, this happened again, but what should I do?Seeing his wives and daughters crying in their arms, the general struggled to find his father for advice.

The lord of the Neifu looked impatiently at the eldest son with a slouched face, and scolded: "Why are you not as smart as your sister!"

"Yes, yes, Bai Chaji is the one who resembles her father the most among her brothers and sisters! My son is stupid, so please teach me." The general is very simple and honest, knowing that he is not as quick-witted as Cheng Xiangdian in terms of talent.He always obeyed his father's orders and never dared to disobey them.

"Oh, that's all." The Minister of the Interior raised his beard and said to his son: "Since we rejected Your Majesty at the beginning, of course we will not agree now. You don't have to panic, just act like you are forced to do nothing every day, Your Majesty will forgive you and help you out."

"This is really great! Today is indeed a benevolent leader!" With tears in his eyes, the general let out a long sigh of relief, and finally let go of the stone in his heart.

The lord of the Neifu secretly gave this innocent son a look, and said in his heart: You will have to endure some time in the future. For the sake of your innocence, you should endure it for a while longer.

The author has something to say: Today, His Highness Ying said that the baby is suffering——

Dong Gong is still just an unmarriageist, Fourth Highness, you have a long way to go

In the past few weeks, the favorites and comments have not increased much, and I am also suffering, and the abolished cervical spine is even more painful TAT
