Red Dust Inn

Hui Xi was just comforting herself. Half a year later, the grand wedding of the third prince marrying General Shen's daughter is still a good story in Qianzhou City, and how bad could the prince's wedding be?She doesn't need anyone to tell her, she will know any details.She was even extravagantly hoping that Xue Tingjin could say, "I'll ask Father to retire the engagement." But extravagant hopes were extravagant wishes after all, and thinking about it in another way, she couldn't do that, so she didn't blame him.

Xue Tingjin bought himself a year to postpone the wedding.

In the spring, Xue Yuxuan left Qianzhou City. Hui Xi heard from Xue Yujin that the emperor sent him out for a private visit.Huixi finally settled down for a while, Xue Tingjin still came to her every now and then, the two of them were very happy together, one played the piano and the other played the flute, and happiness could be seen in each other's eyes.

There is a temple on Dingyang Mountain outside Qianzhou City. There are many peach blossoms and pear blossoms on the mountain. In spring, the red and white flowers complement each other. Huixi found a beautiful spring day and went up the mountain alone.

It is said that the emperor is ill, the situation cannot be objective, Xue Tingjin has not come to see her for half a month, but on the mountain, under the marriage tree in front of the temple, she unexpectedly saw Xue Tengxuan.Xue Yuxuan also saw her, and greeted her with a smile, she smiled back, and then didn't know how to react.Xue Yuxuan walked towards her, his eyes were unusually clear, he groped for a while from his arms, took out a box and handed it to Hui Xi.Hui Xi remembered that Xue Tingjin gave her a gift in the same way, and touched her left wrist with her right hand. The bracelet was warmed by her body temperature.Seeing that Huixi didn't pick up, Xue Yuxuan's expression changed, and he frowned and said, "I just saw this by chance and thought it was very delicate, so I brought it back to you. You don't have to worry about it." After finishing speaking, he opened the box, Inside is a pair of dolls, which seem to be made of a kind of plant. They are not expensive, but they are very special. They must be the special items of that place.

Hui Xi was a little surprised, she thought that Xue Yuxuan would give her those expensive ornaments, but she didn't expect it to be such a delicate and simple thing.Seeing Huixi's eyes flicker, Xue Yuxuan knew she liked it, and took the doll out of the box, Huixi saw it more clearly, the two dolls had a youthful face, but both had white hair, because they were made of straw rope Yes, I can't see their faces, I can only see that the woman is wearing white clothes and the man is wearing green clothes, just like the blue sky and white clouds at the moment, Hui Xi looked up, and it was so.

"Do you like it?" Xue Yuxuan was in a good mood, and stuffed the doll into Huixi's hands. Looking at Xue Yuxuan's expectant eyes, she couldn't bear to refuse, and she liked the pair of villains very much, so she nodded and accepted them.

"Hui Xi, why are you here alone?"

Hui Xi originally wanted to come here to pray for blessings. She had just come out of the temple, and she still pretended that she had just obtained a marriage lottery. , love is lingering in my arms." She was thinking about the meaning of this passage, and she saw Xue Yuxuan unexpectedly.

"The scenery on the mountain is beautiful, let me take a look." Hui Xi walked towards the marriage tree, took out a red ribbon, and was about to throw it on it. Some people said that the higher the ribbon was hung, the greater the chance of two people being together, Hui Xi Xi tried her best, but the ribbon couldn't hang. Xue Yuxuan couldn't stand it anymore, so she snatched it and saw two people's names on it.He suddenly turned cold, and couldn't help tearing the ribbon to pieces.Hui Xi looked at the rags flying all over the sky, and looked at him angrily, "What are you doing?"

Xue Yuxuan didn't answer her, but pulled her aside, Huixi shook off his hand, tears flowed out unconsciously, she yelled at him, "What on earth do you want? I told you I don't like you, why don't you Do you understand..." Xue Yuxuan saw her crying like rain, because he tore up the wishing belt she had prayed for for herself and Xue Yujin.He was a little annoyed, and lowered his head to cover her mouth.

Hui Xi looked at him with wide eyes in disbelief, he was not gentle at all, he bit her fiercely, violated her, and made her hurt.Hui Xi's mind went blank. Although she was born in a brothel, she was a prostitute but not a prostitute, and she rarely had contact with men. At most, after she met Xue Yujin, the two snuggled up to play the piano and enjoy the moon. Now, Xue Yuxuan's overbearing kiss She, this strange feeling made her not only shocked but also surprised.

Xue Yuxuan stuck to Hui Xi's lips and murmured, "Why don't you love me, why don't you love me..." Hui Xi suddenly pushed him away, wiped her red and swollen lips vigorously, and ran away without looking back up.Xue Yuxuan froze in place, not chasing her.After a long time, he lost his mind and went to buy a red ribbon, wrote his and Huixi's names on it, walked to the marriage tree full of ribbons, and flicked it vigorously, and the ribbon hung firmly on the treetop. , watching the ribbon fluttering in the wind, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

There was news from the Third Prince's Mansion that Shen Yanling was poisoned by a strange poison. It was said that it was done by an unknown woman brought back by the Third Prince.After Shen Ji'an found out, he put pressure on Xue Tinghan to give him an explanation, otherwise don't blame him for turning his face and denying others.Shen Ji'an is the founding father of the country. After the founding of the country, he has repeatedly made military exploits. Even the current emperor has to give him three points, let alone a prince.

The current crown prince, Xue Tingjin, is the heir of the emperor. He has a peaceful personality, has read a lot of poetry and books, advocates literary governance, and dislikes martial arts. He is not as arbitrary as Xue Tingyun, nor as jealous as Xue Tinghan.Shen Ji'an had some criticisms about him, thinking that he was too cowardly and too benevolent for a woman.Compared with him, Shen Ji'an likes Xue Tinghan more. Xue Tinghan looks cold, arrogant and lonely.His willingness to marry his only daughter to him is also a kind of recognition for him, but now that he can't even protect his wife, what qualifications does he have to sit in that position?

Recently, in various teahouses and taverns in Qianzhou City, these contents have been circulated.And it's hard to say whether it's true or not.

Xue Tengxuan's visit at the beginning of the year was actually to deal with the rebellion in remote towns. Now that he has successfully completed his mission, his position in the court has been rising all the way, seriously threatening Xue Tenghan, and Xue Tengjin doesn't care much about these things, he cares most It was his father's body.

Recently, Xue Cangyun's health has improved a little. After the morning court, Xue Tingjin was left behind. He seemed a little tired, half leaning on the side of the dragon chair, rubbing the center of his eyebrows with one hand, and casually ride on.This man who can cover half of the sky with one hand is young, but he has a vicissitudes of life, and his once handsome appearance can still be seen in his eyebrows.He waved to Xue Tingjin, and Xue Tingjin went to him and squatted down, holding his arm.He said, "Jin'er, my father is getting old, maybe I will go to your mother soon, but I still can't let you go, let me take good care of you before your mother leaves, you are the prince now, you have to do everything." Be careful. Your temperament is very much like your mother's, kind and gentle, I'm afraid that after I leave, it will be difficult for you to achieve great things. "

Xue Tingjin lowered his head, choked with sobs and said, "Father will be fine, I will do my best not to let Father worry."

Xue Cangyun shook his head, "You tell me how can I rest assured, Han'er's temperament is like mine, he is your biggest threat, you must pay attention, Yun'er has no intention of state affairs, but has always been on good terms with his third brother, Xuan Son, he... oh... and Xi'er, he's still young..."

"Father, you don't have to worry about the third brother. He has always valued love and righteousness, and will never do anything out of line. Although the sixth brother is rebellious, his nature is good, but he is not sensible..."

Xue Cangyun smiled gratifiedly. His group of sons are all excellent, but the country can only be given to one person, and he has no choice.

Xue Tingjin's heart was very confused, he knew what Xue Cangyun meant, and wanted him to take care of the government, the sooner he married Murong Feixue, the better.He didn't know how the ministers of the court thought about their brothers. If Xue Yuxuan's mother was not from a brothel, he would definitely be ahead of him. Now is Xue Yuhan's most dangerous time, which is also the time when he has the greatest opportunity.

When Xue Yujin went to look for Hui Xi, he always looked bored and worried. Hui Xi saw his absent-mindedness and asked him what happened. He shook his head slightly, not wanting Hui Xi to be bored with him.Hui Xi didn't ask any more questions, she took his hand and said that she wanted to go out for a stroll, and Xue Tingjin also wanted to go out to relax, so the two of them went out holding an oil-paper umbrella.

Summer is very hot, there are only a few people on the street, they are all in a hurry, but Hui Xi is in a good mood, walking and jumping, sweat is flowing from her temples, Xue Tingjin wipes her sweat carefully, while giving her She fanned the wind.The two walked to the square, Hui Xi left the shelter of the umbrella, ran to a place and stood still, and waved to Xue Tingjin, "Jin, this is the place we first met, do you remember?"

Xue Tingjin hurried over to cover her with the umbrella, his eyes darkened, and his tone was full of accusations, "What should I do if I get sunburned under such a scorching sun?" Hui Xi looked at him with a smile, her face innocent, Holding his arm shaking, "I'm happy." Xue Tingjin raised the corner of his mouth and scratched her nose teasingly, "Usually I see you are so dignified and stable, but I didn't expect such a little girl's heart."

Hui Xi liked the way he looked at her with doting eyes, she stood on tiptoe and quickly kissed Xue Tingjin's lips, Xue Tingjin froze for a moment, feeling a little embarrassed, coughed in embarrassment, and laughed at her , "Isn't this what the man took the initiative?"

Hui Xi's eyes suddenly darkened. Xue Juxuan was the first man to kiss her. His kiss was hot and domineering, burning her skin. Xue Jujin had never kissed her before. Was he afraid of getting angry?Still not loving her enough?Hui Xi couldn't figure it out.A woman's mind is always turning so many times, Xue Tingjin naturally didn't know what she was thinking, seeing that her face was not looking good, he dragged her back.

Hui Xi didn't know that Xue Tingjin's lingering in Fengyue Tower for the past six months had already been reported to the court, and the ministers in the court and China were all talking about it.After all, Xue Tingjin is not young anymore, and he is a prince, but there is no prince concubine.Now that he has not inherited the great cause, his mind is so indulgent, how can he be the king of a country.

Xue Cangyun looked at Xue Tingjin, who was kneeling on the ground, and threw the bag in his hand on him, "Look for yourself at the good deeds you have done. When such a thing happens at this juncture, you must give civil and military officials Let me explain to you." Xue Cangyun was out of breath due to emotional agitation, coughed twice, and continued, "I have already discussed with Murong Lin, three days later, you and Murong Feixue will hold a big wedding, she is Your princess."

Xue Tingjin lowered his head, gritted his teeth and said, "Didn't the father agree to his son to postpone the marriage for one year?"

Xue Cangyun was furious, "I promised you, but I didn't allow you to do such nonsense. Is it because of that...that woman that you postponed your marriage?"

Xue Yu stood up abruptly, and said, "What's wrong with her? Father, don't you remember the concubine of the sixth younger brother? Back then, you insisted on taking her back to the palace despite the objections of the courtiers, and made the empress mad. , have you forgotten? You can do it, why can't I do it?"

"You, you unfilial son..." Xue Cangyun trembled with anger when he heard Xue Tingjin's words, his chest hurt and he spit out a mouthful of blood.Seeing this, Xue Tingjin was so frightened that he hurried forward to support him.Xue Cangyun leaned on the chair and sat down, the anger on his face faded, and all that was left was regret.After a while, he said slowly, "I'm sorry for the queen, but also for Xuan'er and his concubine mother. Jin'er, don't you understand? I don't want you to make the same mistake again."

Xue Tingjin was silent.
