forced into marriage

As soon as the words were finished, a man in a black gown came out from behind the tree.

Seeing that it was Chu Yu who came, Uncle Li immediately saluted.

Chu Yu nodded and looked around the courtyard, not knowing how to describe the scene in the courtyard.

He asked Uncle Li to go back to rest, and after taking a look at the crabapple tree, he carefully picked up Lin Xi and carried him back to the house.

Close the door softly, put him gently on the bed, help him take off his shoes, and cover him with the quilt.

Chu Yu didn't leave, but sat by the bed, looking at the person in front of him who had already fallen asleep.

Suddenly, Lin Xi talked in his sleep: "Sir, I really want to see you."

Hearing this, Chu Yu's face was expressionless, and he just accepted Lin Xi's words: "Then you come."

Chu Yu thought he would not answer, but in the end...

Lin Xi grabbed Chu Yu's sleeve all of a sudden, a little aggrieved: "But... I can't see you."

"Why?" Chu Yu continued to answer.

At this time, Lin Xi's tears fell from the corner of his eyes, and the expression on his face became even more aggrieved: "Because the emperor ordered me to marry King Ning, for the sake of my father, mother and sister, I can only accept the order, but I... Don't know him at all, don't want to know him, and... I'm still... sir! I want to go home, I don't want to be here anymore."

Chu Yu didn't know what to do with these words, but he still answered.

"It's okay, he will treat you well, and you can go home." Chu Yu wiped away the tears from Lin Xi's eyes with the other sleeve.

Chu Yu helped him make up the quilt again, and when he heard footsteps outside, he quickly blew out the candles.

It happened that the person who came was Xiao Ran. He saw that the light in Lin Xi's room was gone, and he didn't see the young master lying on the stone table in the courtyard. He thought Lin Xi had gone back to his room to rest, so he went back to the room by himself.

Although he couldn't believe that the young master would wake up, he didn't bother to think about it, he was really sleepy now.

Chu Yu heard the sound of leaving footsteps, and left the Jingxinyuan in a low voice.

next morning

This time, Lin Xi slept soundly. After he washed and opened the door, he saw Xiao Ran who was watering the tree.

He jumped in front of Xiao Ran: "Let me tell you, I dreamed of Mr. last night!"

"What did the gentleman say?" Xiao Ran asked him while pouring water.

Lin Xi replied: "I told my husband that I wanted to go to his place, and then my husband said, yes, I told him that I couldn't go, and he asked me why, so I told him about me. .”

Xiao Ran put down the bucket in his hand and looked at Lin Xi: "My lord, stop talking about Mr., we can't get out now."

"I don't believe it. The Marquis of Yongning hasn't imprisoned me for so many years, but Prince Ning's Mansion can imprison me!" Lin Xi couldn't do it anymore.

There it is!

Suddenly he looked at the wall to the right and had what he thought was a good idea.

He walked to Xiao Ran's side, and said in a low voice: "They won't let us go at the main entrance, and they don't have the back entrance at Prince Ning's Mansion, why don't we?"

Xiao Ran immediately objected: "How can that be done? Absolutely not!"

"Oh, don't you care about him!" Lin Xi wanted to go out early now, "Then do you still want to go?"

Seeing that Xiao Ran was hesitating, Lin Xi said: "If you want to, just listen to me, let's wait until it gets dark, then we'll leave."

Xiao Ran had no choice but to nod his head in agreement.

Lin Xi looked at the wall and said proudly: "If you don't let me go through the main entrance, then I will be wronged and climb over the wall! I must leave this Prince Ning's mansion tonight!"

-

They finally waited until nightfall.

Xiao Ran took the bag and was pulled to the wall by Lin Xi.

Lin Xi looked at the tree he had planted with his own hands, and was still a little bit reluctant.

"Goodbye, I will come back to see you quietly when I have a chance in the future."

After finishing speaking, he asked Li Ran to find it for him, but he searched around but couldn't find it. Xiao Ran only saw a wooden box that was only as high as his knees.

Lin Xi didn't care about it, and together with Xiao Ran, they moved the wooden box, Xiao Ran stepped on the wooden box, and Lin Xi stepped on Xiao Ran's back.

It took him a lot of effort to climb up, he finally got up, and was about to turn around to pull Xiao Ran up, but he couldn't sit still, his body tilted, and fell off the wall.

Just as he fell, a man appeared from the big tree, put his arms around Lin Xi's waist, picked him up, and landed on the wall.

"Master!" Seeing someone suddenly appearing, Xiao Ran was still hugging his son, and quickly asked who it was.

Chu Yu didn't speak, but glared at Xiao Ran.

Then he looked at Lin Xi, who was holding his eyes closed tightly, and asked in a slightly joking tone, "Princess climbed to the top of the wall, but would you like to enjoy the moon with me?"

Xiao Ran only realized when he heard that person called himself 'the King', that person was King Ning Chuyu, and he began to worry for the young master: It's over now!Caught by him.

Lin Xi, who had her eyes tightly closed and clutched at Chu Yu's clothes, opened her eyes immediately when she heard Chu Yu's words, "Chu...Chu Yu!"

"I'm afraid it's inappropriate for the concubine to call the king by my name." Chu Yu continued to tease him.

Lin Xi stared at him, didn't speak, and didn't realize that he was still in Chu Yu's arms.

Chu Yu looked at the person in his arms, like a cat whose fur had exploded, and felt a little funny.

"What are you laughing at?" Lin Xi asked, staring at him.

Chu Yu smiled and shook his head: "It's nothing, I just feel that if the princess doesn't come down, I'm afraid the princess and the king will have to rest on this wall overnight."

Hearing Chu Yu's words, Lin Xi finally realized that he was hugging him, and wanted to get down, but found that it was on top of the wall, so he dared not move again.

Chu Yu teased him again: "The princess really wants to rest on this wall with the king?"

Lin Xi didn't know how to complain about the person in front of him, and said angrily: "You are on the wall, how do you let me get down, you deliberately want to throw me to death!"

"This king doesn't dare. If the princess is gone, where can I find another princess to come back?"

It seems that Chu Yu is teasing Lin Xi, and he is addicted to it.

"Put me down quickly!" Lin Xi wanted to go down, not wanting to chat with Chu Yu here.

Chu Yu was really addicted to playing: "It's fine to let me let you go, but you have to answer a few questions from me."

Lin Xi became more angry and turned her head away from him. Lin Xi felt that he just didn't want to let her go.

Seeing that Lin Xi didn't speak, he tacitly agreed with Lin Xi.

"Why did you climb this wall?"

Lin Xi began to stutter: "This... according to what you said, enjoy the moon, yes! Enjoy the moon!"

"Why do you have to bring burdens to watch the moon?" Chu Yu hugged him even tighter, "I hope the princess will answer the king truthfully."

This made Lin Xi hurt: "It hurts! Take it easy! Just answer truthfully, it hurts a lot!"

Lin Xi replied: "If the emperor hadn't ordered me to marry you, how could I be here!"

Chu Yu asked again: "Then you don't want to marry, so why accept the order?"

"He threatened my family's life, how dare I disobey him!"

This time it really made Lin Xi cry. He wanted to cry, but he had to hold back the tears.

"Then why do you insist on leaving the mansion?"

"I'm a playful person. You locked me up all day and didn't let me go out to play. How could I not leave, not to mention... Your palace is not fun at all."

Chu Yu frowned slightly: "Is it really just for going out to play?"

Lin Xi caught a glimpse of something wrong with his expression, and immediately said: "Why have you finished asking so many questions? Let me go after you finish asking!"

Chu Yu jumped down with him in his arms and fell to the ground. Lin Xi immediately struggled out of his arms.

As soon as he got down, he dragged Xiao Ran into the room and closed the door.

Chu Yu watched him run back to the room, saw him close the door, looked around the wall of the Jingxinyuan, then left the Jingxinyuan, and returned to his own Yunshuiju.

next morning

Early in the morning, Xiao Ran knocked on the door of Lin Xi's room: "Master, it's not good, it's not good!"

Lin Xi was still sleeping soundly at the moment, but... now Xiao Ran disturbed her slumber early in the morning.

He got up and went to open the door: "Xiao Ran! Are you still letting your son sleep!"

"It's not that I don't let it go, it's that King Ning said that he must see you during breakfast!" Xiao Ran explained to him aggrieved.

Lin Xi was annoyed: "He's sick! They told me that I don't need breakfast, but let me go!"

Xiao Ran explained again: "I told him that you don't need breakfast, but...he said that if he didn't see you during breakfast, he would charge you with running away from the palace."

"As for holding grudges like this? It's inhumane!" He cursed, then went back to get dressed and prepared to wash up.

-

"Oh? Didn't the princess never have breakfast? Why now..."

When it was time for breakfast, Chu Yu came from the study and saw Lin Xi lying on the table, staring at him fiercely.

The more Lin Xi thought about it, the more angry he became, so early in the morning he kept people from sleeping: "Ask the question knowingly!"

Breakfast was ready, Chu Yu sat down, picked up the bowl in front of Lin Xi, and served him porridge.

He filled the porridge and put it in front of Lin Xi, but Lin Xi pushed it aside and turned his head away from him.

Chu Yu just smiled lightly, did not speak, and continued to serve porridge for himself.

He picked up the bowl, took a spoonful, and was about to blow on it when he heard someone's stomach growl.

Lin Xi subconsciously covered his stomach, and suddenly felt too embarrassed: You don't usually bark, you don't bark early, you don't bark at night, but you bark at this time!

"Ahem..." Chu Yu couldn't hold it back, and laughed out loud, "If you're hungry, you can eat, so why vent your anger on your body?"

Xiao Ran was silent all the time, but after hearing what Chu Yu said all these years, he had been telling Lin Xi what to hear, and he began to lean towards Chu Yu: "Yes, young master, you can eat something, big wedding You had a stomachache again that night."

"Stomach pain?" Hearing what Xiao Ran said, Chu Yu's expression changed, and he turned his head to stare at Su Qing.

Su Qing hurriedly clasped his fists to plead guilty: "I hope His Highness will forgive me for my subordinate's mistake."

"That's all." He looked at Uncle Li, "Let's all go out."

Uncle Li took the order and brought everyone out, leaving Lin Xi and Chu Yu behind.

Chu Yu put down the bowl, looked at Lin Xi and asked, "Why don't you have breakfast?"

"I don't want to eat." Lin Xi didn't even turn his head, "I can't get up."

"Can't get up? Why?" Chu Yu continued to ask.

Lin Xi felt that this person asked too many questions, which was a bit annoying, but he answered him patiently.

"Sleepy, want to sleep."

When he said this, Chu Yu had already walked from where he was sitting to the direction Lin Xi was facing.

Seeing him coming, Lin Xi turned her head away again.

Chu Yu sat down, picked up Lin Xi's bowl, took a spoonful of porridge, and blew, "I ask you, do you want to eat it or not?"

"Don't eat!" Lin Xi's attitude was very affirmative.

Seeing his firm attitude, Chu Yu had no choice but to tease him again: "Is it true that you don't want to eat? If you don't want to eat, then if I say anything casually, he will lose his Yongning Houfu."

"You!" Lin Xi became nervous, and quickly turned his head, "Inhumane!"

"It's good that the princess knows." Chu Yu scooped up another spoonful and placed it near Lin Xi's mouth. "Come on, open your mouth."

"I'll do it myself!" He snatched the bowl and spoon from Chu Yu's hand.

Seeing that he had started to eat, Chu Yu returned to his seat and started eating.

When he didn't take a few bites, he saw Lin Xi looking at him from time to time, so he said unhurriedly: "Is there something on this king's face that attracts the princess?"

Seeing that he noticed, Lin Xi quickly looked away and lowered his head to drink the porridge.

"If you have any questions, just ask."

"Really?" Hearing his promise, Lin Xi looked up at him suddenly, "Then I said it?"

Chu Yu smiled without saying a word, and nodded.

"It's a rumor in the market that you...are indifferent and black-bellied, and don't like to be approached by others. Is it true?" Lin Xi began to ask.

"What does the princess think?" Chu Yu asked him back.

Lin Xi was so excited that he almost knocked over the bowl: "It's a lie! I didn't see the indifference, but it's a bit black-bellied, and it's even more impossible to not like others to approach!"

Chu Yu still just smiled and didn't speak.

He asked again: "Didn't you say that you are a sick child? Why do you look nothing like it?"

Chu Yu just wanted to take another sip of porridge, when he heard him say this, he put down the bowl and spoon in his hand, and approached Lin Xi, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Wangfei can give it a try and see if this king is a sick child."
