When I received the imperial decree of marriage, I wanted to crumpled the yellow silk cloth into a ball of shit, threw it on the emperor's dragon face, squinted at him, and then floated away.

However, this can only be a fantasy that will never come true.

In fact, I dare not even resist the decree.Because the Liu family and the Zhao family are deadly rivals, if I resist, the Zhao family will definitely seize this opportunity and join hands with the empress who is from the Zhao family and who favors the harem to trip me up.At that time, I will definitely not have a good time.

Although my father, Liu Chongyu, is the number one under the emperor, with all the power in the court and the public, it is definitely no problem to save my life, but if this happens, my position as the eldest son of the Liu family will be shaken.

Apart from me, there are two other boys in the Liu family, both of whom are outstanding talents, handsome, and well-rounded, and they are both descendants of the first generation. Any one of them has the ability to become the heir of the Liu family.

Although I don't care about the position of the heir, I don't want to be deprived of the power of the heir because of this reason.If Liu Yufeng and Liu Yulan are given up as heirs in this way, I will not be reconciled.

You must know that Liu Yufeng, Liu Yulan and I were not born to the same mother. My mother died of dystocia when giving birth to me. In addition to Liu Yulan's two sons, there is also a daughter named Liu Yuqing.

Mrs. Liu looks like a noble, elegant, virtuous and generous woman.I heard that there are many people who regret that Mrs. Liu is not the original partner. There is a reason for this regret.It is said that from the very beginning, the current head of the Liu family, my father and the current Mrs. Liu fell in love with each other.Unexpectedly, the girl from the Qi family, my mother, stepped in and became the original partner of Liu Chongyu, who was still the son of the Liu family at that time.

My mother is the princess of Yilin Palace, the second daughter of Princess Yilin. She is a real royal jewel. An imperial decree from the emperor made the union of my father and mother possible.

When my mother passed away, the current Mrs. Liu of the Liu family, Miss Lu at that time was in her [-]th year. Although there were many suitors, but Liu Chongyu, the son of the Liu family at that time, was in front of her. There were very few people who could hold her own. Girls are despised.

Two years later, Miss Lu finally became Mrs. Liu, my stepmother.

Everyone praised Mrs. Liu, and she seemed to treat me like her own, but I couldn't like this person no matter what. Although I didn't catch her, I subconsciously felt that she was a hypocrite people.

"Brother, congratulations." The person who spoke to me was my third brother Liu Yulan. He was wearing white clothes and holding a folding fan. The reputation can be described as far and wide.

I have to admit that this younger brother is indeed talented, suave and suave, and he is indeed a dragon and phoenix among men.His congratulations seemed so sincere, but my mood was even more depressed.

"Brother doesn't seem very happy." Liu Yulan put away his fan that showed his chic and unrestrained image, and looked at me with concern.

I put away the imperial decree on the desk, and said with a blank expression, "What's the matter, third brother?"

Liu Yulan straightened her sleeves, put her hands behind her back, and said in a coquettish posture: "Princess Shaohua is beautiful and beautiful, and has extraordinary literary talent. My brother should be happy to have this girl, so why are you frowning?"

I glanced at the third brother who had already sat down at the tea table, and said in a calm voice, "Everyone has his own ambitions. Although Princess Shaohua is good, she is not my favorite."

Liu Yulan showed a disliked smile at the corners of his eyebrows and eyes: "How can elder brother have such an idea? It is a beautiful thing for elder brother and Princess Shaohua to unite ideals together." He played with the dark green fan pendant, "Furthermore , if big brother likes something, can't he be taken as a concubine? I think Princess Shaohua must not be a jealous woman."

I said coldly: "I don't need such a concubine." Liu Yulan showed a stunned expression, with an ambiguous smile, and I stared at him expressionlessly.

"Brother likes Yunlu County Lord very much?" Liu Yulan suddenly asked me seriously, but I was taken aback.

Yunlu is my cousin, my mother's sister, the daughter of Princess Huayun, and my current sweetheart. It is said that I should be suffering for the loss of my sweetheart, but I found that my pain at this moment is not from losing her at all, but from losing her. It is dissatisfaction with the forced marriage, dissatisfaction with losing the qualification for love.Before today, I thought I loved my cousin very much, but after today, am I still sure that I love her?

My cousin is beautiful and lovely, with a gentle personality, well-educated and reasonable, without the arrogance of some noble girls, and I agree with her.Even if I don't love her, I should like her.Before there was no imperial decree to grant marriage, the two families should also be happy to see us together, but now...

"Brother, why should you be persistent? According to what my younger brother has seen, Princess Shaohua is more beautiful and talented than Princess Yunlu. If my older brother sees her, he will be delighted."

"You are not me, Anzhi, I am delighted when I see it."

"Brother, I haven't seen it before, will An Zhi be happy if he sees it?"

"If the younger brother likes it, then the younger brother will marry him."

"It's a pity that the princess is looking at you, brother, not me, and the imperial decree has been issued. If I marry my brother on behalf of my brother, wouldn't it be a crime of deceiving the emperor?"

"..." I gave Liu Yulan a cold look, got up and flung my sleeves and went out.What Ren Liu Yulan said in the back, I just pretended not to hear.

The moon and stars are scarce, and I walk alone in the courtyard.Although it is the season of midsummer, I feel as lonely as snow.

As I was walking, I suddenly heard intermittent ambiguous groans. I followed the sound, and then I saw a picture that didn't surprise me even though it was the first time I saw it.

My father, Liu Zhongyu, was sitting neatly on a stone chair, and a woman in disheveled clothes was sitting on his lap, her body heaving up and down automatically.

Almost the moment I showed up, a pair of cold and deep eyes fixed on me.Obviously, with my father's vigilance, he had already discovered my approach.

We looked at each other across the air, I think I have never been afraid of those eyes with hidden blades, I just can't understand those eyes, and I can't understand what kind of person the owner of those eyes is.

Maybe it's been a while, maybe just a second, before I hear myself say flatly, "I want to talk to my father."

The woman on my father's lap screamed when she heard my voice, stopped swinging, hurriedly pulled up her clothes, and buried her head in the man's arms.The father pushed the woman away, a cold and stern look flashed in his eyes, the woman trembled like chaff, and ran away as if fleeing.

The first time I saw my father's little brother, I had to marvel at its majesty.In fact, I don't want to see that stuff of a man, and it's my father, but as a man, as a man with a great attitude, I can't do such a weak behavior of diverting my attention.So, I watched my father straighten his pants, then moved to sit down at the stone table not far away, and looked at me leisurely.

I walked over and sat down opposite him, not knowing what to say for a while, so I fell silent.

After a while, a man dressed as a guard brought a tray and put it on the stone table. Inside was a jug of wine and two wine glasses.

I looked at the wine, and then at my father. He was sitting on the ground like a god.After thinking about it, he poured a glass of wine for him and poured himself a glass.

I don't drink very well, and after drinking three glasses in a row, I get a little tipsy, but even if I'm drunk, I can't tell it from the outside.I started to talk, and I told him that I didn't want to marry the princess, and that if my father expressed his refusal for me, the emperor would definitely not force the marriage.

I stared at him and asked in a cold tone, why I don’t feel that I have a father. Apart from exercising parental power over me, my father never brought me anything I wanted. I hate my father.Besides my blood relationship with my father, what else is there?

I saw the stern man opposite me frown deeper and deeper, his eyes became strange, not any kind of eyes I had seen before.But no matter what the look is, I can't understand it anyway.Presumably in his mind, my thoughts and requests were offensive.

Perhaps from this moment on, he will reconsider the choice of heir.Suddenly I didn't care much about it.If he deprives me of my heirship, I will run away from home.With my strong vitality, I think I can live well anywhere.

Probably the long-term feudal bondage made me depressed for too long, so I began to recklessly say something that I had never said before.Said that I hate all those who arrange my life, I approached him, and whispered that I hated Mrs. Liu, she has reached a certain level of hypocrisy, if there is a godhead of hypocrisy, she has the potential to become such a god.

When I said this, my father's expression had completely restrained to his usual sternness.But I suspect that his heart will not be so peaceful.I finally said that the person I hate the most is him.

After saying this, I lost consciousness.

When I regained my consciousness, I regretted the nonsense I said in front of my father last night.Although those words are not nonsense, they are all from my heart, but I don't think I should tell my father that last night, I was so impulsive.However, I can't take back the words I have spoken and the water I have poured out.

Forget it, I was very happy when I said that, so I feel relieved when I think about it.The only thing that confuses me is how to treat Mrs. Liu in the future. It is difficult for me to respect and love her as much as in the past, especially when my father is present.

When I greeted my father and Mrs. Liu in the morning, I was left to have dinner with them.Mrs. Liu said a few words of concern to me, and said that I will work hard to improve myself when I am about to marry a princess.In the past, I would have listened with an open mind and a 100% correct attitude.But today, uh, I tried to be as respectful and loving as ever.It seems that my acting skills have reached the level of a professional actor.

After leaving Mrs. Liu's place, I was relieved.I have to admit that my father is an extremely majestic man. I have never met anyone more imposing than him. It can be said that even the emperor is not as imposing as him.This may be related to age. My father, 38, has already cultivated to become a master, and has reached the state of being able to freely retract and release his aura.The emperor is 25, and he has only been on the throne for a few years. Although he is more imposing than anyone else, he still lacks the training of years, and he is naturally a little worse than my father.

"Young master, the master told you to go to the study." When Duofu called me, I was about to enter my room and go back to sleep quietly, but I couldn't sleep now.

I walked to Liu Chongyu's study with a cold face, thinking as I walked, is he going to criticize and educate me?

I have visited my father's study not too many times, but I am quite familiar with the furnishings inside. The bookshelves and desks are made of agarwood.There are many books, all kinds.The calligraphy and painting on the wall are very valuable.The layout of the room is calm and calm, just like him.

He was standing by the window with his hands behind his back, looking out of the window. I walked to the place three steps away from the left behind him and stood still, and asked respectfully, "What do you want my father to do?"

Playing with a jade wrench in his hand, he squinted at me and asked, "You don't want to marry the princess?"

"Yes."

"Then who do you want to marry?"

"I haven't met anyone I want to marry yet."

"Hmph, you think you can marry whoever you want." My father turned around and stared at me coldly.

I raised my eyelids to meet his deep eyes: "With my father's help, I can marry whoever I want."

My father narrowed his eyes, and the light and shadow fluctuated in his eyes. I seemed to see the subtle waves surging in the sea.Before he could speak, I said, "Father, don't worry, I won't resist the order."

"is it?"

"Yes." I will not resist the decree, I just will find a way not to marry the princess.

"Don't go anywhere until you marry the princess."

I raised my head suddenly: "I don't know how to resist orders, why did my father ask me to ground my feet?"

"You won't resist the decree, you just won't marry the princess."

"..." Why did he know what I was thinking?

"As the eldest son of the Liu family, you should know what to do and what not to do." The father's tone was very severe.

I looked at him and retorted: "If I'm not the eldest son of the Liu family, not the heir, can I not have to know what I should do and what I shouldn't do?"

Liu Zhongyu frowned.

I held my head up and said indifferently: "I am willing to give up the power of the heir of the Liu family."

This is what I voluntarily gave up, and I will not be unwilling.And when I said this, I felt very happy, and I felt like I was about to move the mountain of my father away from the top of my head.

Liu Chongyu stared at me, his face completely expressionless.I stood there motionless, my feet were sore and numb before I heard him say, "Get down."

He was probably angry, but I was very happy.He turned and left silently, feeling a little excited.That fellow Liu Chongyu was annoyed by me.
