Proton Consort Continued

"Young master, you want to take Ye Sui away, but you have to ask me if I agree?" Mu Qing stood beside Ye Sui, wrapped his arms around Ye Sui's shoulders, and turned his eyes from Xiang Jing to the old bustard, "Aunt Lan, here's the bust." Give it to me, and you go about your business."

"I really don't know what the hell you people are doing. You are all worried, out of sight and out of mind, just don't dangle in front of my eyes!"

Mu Qing had this intention, and invited Xiang Jing, "It's not convenient to talk here, please come inside."

If you don't agree, it seems impossible for Xiang Jing to talk to Ye Sui alone again, it's better to look at Mu Qing's intentions, anyway, Xiang Jing is also full of curiosity about this person who suddenly appeared next to Ye Sui.

In the private room on another floor in the backyard, there is no bustling noise, and occasionally the sound of silk and bamboo can be heard. It is indeed a good place for conversation.

"Mu Qing, I have offended you so much, please forgive me, Your Highness the Crown Prince."

Xiang Jing looked at Mu Qing and saluted, puzzled, "Do you know my identity?"

Mu Qing smiled calmly, "Ye Sui told me as soon as she came back that His Highness the Crown Prince loves you very much, and it's a blessing for you and my wife."

Both Xiang Jing and Ye Sui were taken aback, the difference is that Xiang Jing's surprise was written on his face, while Ye Sui's doubts just flashed in his heart, because Mu Qing quickly hugged Ye Sui close to him, gave a hint.

"You said that you and He'er..." Xiang Jing said halfway, it was really unbelievable.

"Our ancestral home is Luoyang. We have been childhood sweethearts since we were young. We got married very early. Ye Sui has a birthmark on her face. She had to wear a veil because she had to make a living..."

After regaining consciousness, Xiang Jing's eyes became sharp, and he looked at Mu Qing, "Is this the life you gave her? Running around, restless, you want her to follow you like this for the rest of her life?"

"His Royal Highness, you are not a fish, how can you know the joy of fish? If this is the life Ye Sui and I like, why not?"

Xiang Jing was choked by Mu Qing and had nothing to say, Ye Sui didn't express his opinion at all, which made Xiang Jing lose his position to question Mu Qing.In front of Mu Qing and Ye Sui, Xiang Jing is an outsider, how can he interfere?

"Ye Sui has always maintained a clean and self-sufficient life. She does not sell herself as a performer. Qianhui Pavilion in Luoyang is also different from a brothel. Ye Sui will never be harmed."

It doesn't matter to Xiang Jing whether Mu Qing explains or not, because that's not what Xiang Jing cares about.

"Can you tell me how long have you been married?"

"More than a year."

Xiang Jing only looked at Ye Sui, "Can you tell me yourself, do you like her?"

Ye Sui kept her head down, as if acquiescing to everything, but Xiang Jing still didn't give up.If the unbearable silence continues, the scene will be self-defeating. Mu Qing wanted to say something for Ye Sui, but Ye Sui spoke up.

"His Royal Highness asked ridiculously. Since she is my husband, I naturally like her."

Ye Sui looked directly into Xiang Jing's eyes, breaking all of Xiang Jing's pride and hopes.Xiang Jing's eyes were almost red in front of Ye Sui, but he swallowed the bitterness in his heart, and his frown tightly suppressed the tears that were about to fall.

"So you are really Ye Sui, two completely different people from Su He, right? You didn't meet a person named Mai Sui two years ago, and you didn't sell with her at Qingfeng Rice Shop Mi, you haven’t received a piece of jade pendant which means ‘original heart’, and you haven’t heard Maisui’s promise of never giving up, have you?”

Xiang Jing looked at Ye Sui without blinking, Ye Sui's hair, eyebrows, eyes, Xiang Jing could see clearly, there was no need to lift the veil, Xiang Jing knew it clearly.But if Ye Sui repeatedly denies herself, what Xiang Jing insists on will also become wrong.

"I already said last night that I am not, how else does Your Highness need me to prove?" Ye Sui pretended to feel absurd and inexplicable, so as to cover up her flustered heart.Leaning on Mu Qing's shoulder, Ye Sui leaned her head to avoid Xiang Jing's gaze, "Mu Qing, I'm tired, I just want to go back to Luoyang as soon as possible..."

"Okay, let's go today."

Xiang Jing sighed heavily, Ye Sui was not the only one who was exhausted.

"He'er, if this is what you want, then treat me as a wrong person. As long as you're doing well, it doesn't matter if it's Ye Sui or Su He? What I remember is always you."

When the door closed again, Ye Sui knew that Xiang Jing was no longer by her side.Ye Sui bit her lip, not daring to cry out, not daring to hear her own cry.Mu Qing patted Ye Sui lightly, what Mu Qing didn't expect was that Xiang Jing still thought that Ye Sui was not Ye Sui, so Mu Qing's performance of this scene could only be regarded as half the success.Even so, Xiang Jing was able to let go, and Mu Qing couldn't help thinking whether Xiang Jing didn't care that much about Ye Sui, or Xiang Jing cared too much about Ye Sui.

"Ye Sui, Ye Sui", Lingli hurried over, and seemed to have been looking for Ye Sui for a long time, "Your father is ill, go and have a look!"

Ye Sui raised her head, wiped away her tears, and ran after Lingli, unable to think about anything else.

Shopkeeper Su twitched all over his body, and his eyes turned white. If Aunt Qin hadn't told him to bite the sweat towel in time, he would have died.

"Father, father," Ye Sui knelt beside the bed, holding the hand of Shopkeeper Su's clenched hand, "What happened, why did it happen suddenly?"

"Just now Uncle kept talking, saying that the weather is good, the weather is good, Aunt Qin and I took him out to bask in the sun. It was fine at first, Uncle was also very happy, somehow..."

"A few customers are discussing about the rice shop," Aunt Qin took Ling Li's words and said, "They are all wealthy businessmen, complaining that most of this year's rice has been taken by Qingfeng Rice Shop, and they can't lower the purchase price, and There was no way to raise the price, and they complained endlessly.”

"Qingfeng Rice Shop..." Ye Sui looked at Shopkeeper Su and muttered a long-standing name.

Aunt Qin helped Ye Sui up from the ground, "Ye Sui, think about how this has anything to do with your father's previous business, maybe it will help your father's illness."

Ye Sui looked at Aunt Qin, then at shopkeeper Su who was unconscious, "The name Qingfeng Rice Shop was thought up by my father, he wrote it with his own hand, and made it into a plaque..."

"But now, it's the Royal Rice Shop!" Lingli said in surprise, which startled Mu Qing and Ye Sui.

"Haven't you heard of it? His Royal Highness established the Grain and Salt Mansion two years ago. In order to prevent profiteers from hurting farmers and to manage the production and sales of grain and salt in a unified manner, the royal rice shops that appeared in various places belonged to the Grain and Salt Mansion. Qingfeng Rice Shop It is the first one, and it is also the most important thing for the emperor and the prince. Since the implementation of this initiative, it has received much attention and praise, and local governments are also constantly establishing royal rice shops, including Luoyang. This year is the first harvest for Luoyang rice shops. Year."

Ye Sui listened to Aunt Qin's words in a daze, but she didn't know anything about it.

It was getting late, Xiang Yan came out of the East Palace resentfully, stood at the door, raised his head and looked at the breeze and bright moon.Xiang Zhi was not there, and there was no one to discuss with.Xiang Yan didn't dare to tell Xiang Xun Wanming, after all, he was a bit selfish, even Xiang Yan didn't have the confidence to persuade Xiang Jing.

"What should I do? What should I do? Huliyun, why did you throw me such a big problem? Should I help you?"

There was only Xiang Yan and Hu Liyun's back garden. Xiang Yan was absent-minded when it came to the weather and the scenery.After talking to himself for a long time, Xiang Yan stopped and held Hu Liyun who was silently walking forward.

"No matter what they say or say, you don't have to care about it, because as long as my brother is not willing, my father and mother will not agree to the marriage, so don't keep frowning. You will be married for two years this time." Same as before, play for a while, and then go back." At the end, Xiang Yan's voice became quieter, thinking of Hu Liyun leaving again, his mood suddenly became a little dull.

"If I want to stay, can I?"

"En?" Huliyun's voice was so soft that Xiang Yan thought he heard it wrong.

Hu Liyun looked at Xiang Yan, not sincerely cheating, but panicked in his heart, and his eyes were hazy, "I don't want to go back. My father passed away, so it won't be my home. I will become a means of getting married, isn't it? The country of Jing, or other ethnic groups, might as well stay here instead of this. I don’t need a status, I don’t need anything, I just want a place to live and spend this life in peace.”

"How could this happen?" Xiang Yan couldn't imagine that what happened to Hu Liyun could make the princess of a country so complacent, "Where is the person you like? Didn't you say that you want to strive for happiness? What is the result?"

"He..." Hu Liyun paused, "He has something he wants to do. Before he succeeds, he can't be with me..."

"What's the point of this? If he cared about you, why would he watch you marry in a foreign country? Did he leave you instead of being with you when you were saddest? Then it's worth noting such a person!"

With wet eyelashes, Hu Liyun lowered his head, "Where do I have the right to choose? My destiny is not in my hands, and staying with the person I like for the rest of my life will be a dream that I cannot realize in my life."

"It's too much. Why is that King Huli also your uncle? How could he treat you like this?" Xiang Sheng became angry and anxious, "He must have treated you badly. To make a deal, you can tell the character of such a person without looking at it! Then what will you do in the future? Going back is a pit of fire, not going back is also a cliff, a dilemma..."

"When my father passed away, I thought that getting over the knot would be a relief." On the wrist of Huliyun's raised left hand, there was a scar. "I was very scared, I had no choice, and I didn't know what to do in the future..."

Xiang Yan looked at the wound on Huliyun's hand with a frown, and stroked it with his fingertips, as if Xiang Yan was perceiving everything Huliyun had suffered, the pain that Xiang Yan couldn't understand, the suffering that Xiang Yan couldn't imagine.For the first time, Xiang Yan felt that it was unfair, and the anger was backlogged in his heart. Xiang Yan wanted to fight for Huliyun, and wanted to let Huliyun get rid of this grievance and dilemma.Because in the consciousness that Xiang Yan has grown up for 17 years, everyone deserves happiness.
