Wearing a book, the paranoid devil is crying in my arms

Chapter 267 Gifting the King to the World, Thinking of Engagement

Even though he knew in his heart that if he expressed his heart to Xi Yan in this way, what he would get in return might be such a result, but he never thought that what he would get in exchange would be a marriage decree.

Everyone in Pei's residence knelt on the ground and listened to the imperial edict read out. Pei Mu lowered his head. After the imperial edict was read out, the palace man hurried up to help Pei Mu.

Unexpectedly, before he stepped forward, Pei Mu stood up slowly, with a cold expression on his face, looking straight at the imperial decree in the hands of the palace servants.

"I want to see Your Majesty." His voice trembled slightly.

There was a look of embarrassment on the palace man's face, so he could only speak in embarrassment.

"The general is embarrassing the old slave. His Majesty ordered the general to recuperate in the mansion and prepare for the wedding."

The meaning is obvious, that is, Xi Yan doesn't want to see him.

Pei Mu pursed his lips, and the palace servant handed him the imperial decree, but he was still unwilling to accept it, and it took him a long time before he opened his mouth.

"What if I resist the decree?"

Saying this sentence, not only the palace people were stunned, but also everyone in the Pei residence was stunned.

The matter of resisting the decree is serious, but it will implicate the nine clans.

The reason why Pei Mu can say this is that he can conclude that it is impossible for Xi Yan to touch the Pei family.

It's just that he underestimated it. Now Xi Yan is a different person than before. As a king, no one would like his dignity to be challenged.

Even if this person is Pei Mu.

The palace man's face gradually became serious, as if he had already guessed that this would be the result.

"If the general refuses to resist the decree, your majesty can look at the general's achievements over the years and make an exception. However, the entire Pei mansion must leave the imperial capital, and your majesty will not be able to return for the rest of his life."

Pei Mu clenched his fists tightly, the veins on the back of his hands were bulging, and his knuckles turned white due to the force.

So the banquet was prepared early in the morning. If he failed to resist the decree, he would never see him again in this life.

If he accepted the imperial decree, then they would not have too much involvement at all, this is to draw a clear line with him.

Pei Mu could only feel his qi and blood churning, and his eyes turned black. Finally, under everyone's surprised eyes, he opened his mouth to spit out a big mouthful of blood.

Out of breath, he swayed twice, and with the injuries on his body, he finally couldn't hold on and fell hard to the ground.

Xi Yan was holding a cinnabar pen in his hand, and when he heard the news, the pen in his hand didn't even pause.

There was no expression on his face, indifferent to the point of being almost heartless.

"So has he received the imperial decree?"

"The general fainted out of anger and didn't say no, but he still hasn't woken up."

The pen in Xi Yan's hand paused for a moment, and then he picked it up and dipped it in the cinnabar ink beside him. Yun Lan stood beside him and studied the ink, carefully observing Xi Yan's expression.

In the end, he obediently bowed his head and did not speak. After Xi Yan finished reviewing the memorial in hand, he opened his mouth without haste.

"Then wait until he wakes up and ask again. If he doesn't answer all the time, let him leave the imperial capital with everyone in the Pei residence."

Everyone knows the relationship between Pei Mu and Xi Yan. The relationship between the two has always been very good, and they have been very close since childhood.

No one knew that Xi Yan went to Pei's mansion, and when he came out again, his attitude towards Pei Mu changed drastically.

Even Yun Lan was at a loss, before Xi Yan always had Pei Mu on her lips, and she always said the name Pei Mu in front of her.

In the end, it was only one night, and he forcibly gave Pei Mu a marriage in the blink of an eye, and even made trouble to the point of expelling him from the imperial capital of Chengdu.

What happened to the two of them that day, no one dared to ask, and Yun Lan just stood aside obediently studying ink.

Xi Yan took good care of her before, but now he feels that Xi Yan seems to be getting more and more unfamiliar, not just his attitude towards the Yun family.

The attitude towards her has also changed a lot. I haven't made a bad face to her, but my attitude still looks a lot colder.

When the palace servants came back to report again, they received the news that Pei Mu had accepted the imperial edict.

The cinnabar pen in Xi Yan's hand paused again, and finally spoke indifferently.

"Understood, back down."

The palace servants bowed respectfully and retreated, Yun Lan, who was standing beside Xi Yan, took another look at Xi Yan's expression.

Xi Yan also found out, "If you want to ask anything, just ask."

"Brother Yu'an, why do you suddenly want to marry General Pei..."

"When it's time to get married, it's natural to settle down and take care of yourself."

Xi Yan's attitude was indifferent. After saying this, he put down the cinnabar pen in his hand, and said in a cold voice, "You also step back."

Yun Lan didn't dare to talk too much, she put down the ink stick in her hand, saluted and left quickly.

Xi Yan looked down at the memorial in front of him. His eyes were cold and complicated. After a long time, he slowly raised his hand to brush his lips, as if Pei Mu's aura still remained there.

Feeling restless and leaving, he stood up and walked to the window, looking at the scenery outside the window.

Pei Mu accepted the imperial decree, no matter what he should be happy, but for some reason, he felt even more irritable.

At this time, he turned his head and looked over, and saw two wooden figurines on one side of the bookshelf, both of them had smiles on their lips.

One of the figurines held a sugar figurine in his hand and handed it to the other. Although the carving was rough at the beginning, it is now more beautifully polished.

"Come on!"

Xi Yan spoke in a cold voice.

The palace servant immediately opened the door and came in, "Your Majesty..."

"Take it out and burn it."

Xi Yan waved his hand and threw the two wooden figurines to the ground. The figurines rolled on the ground for a while and landed at the feet of the palace man.

Even the palace servants were stunned, bent down to pick up the villain, and dared not answer for a long time.

Xi Yan cherishes these two wooden figures very much, and they can't even touch them in many cases.

Now it was thrown on the ground, and the palace man took it in his hand and walked away, neither staying nor staying.

Xi Yan glanced at him coldly, "Hurry up!"

The palace man was startled, and immediately responded, "Yes..."

After the words fell, he bent over and left quickly, holding two villains in his hands, sighing softly.

He could only ask people to raise the charcoal brazier, holding two small figures in their hands, and glanced hesitantly at the main hall.

There was still no movement inside.

Xi Yan watched the door of the main hall close, took a deep breath and glanced outside, feeling more and more depressed.

Pei Mu pushed open the window and looked at the sky outside. The sky, which was originally clear and cloudless, soon became cloudy.

It's windy and it's going to rain.

The mistress of the Pei family standing beside him looked at him, "Your Majesty gave you this marriage, what are you going to do?"

Pei Mu raised his eyes to look at the cloudy sky, he calmed down for a while, the wind lifted his hair and brushed his thin cheeks.

The voice was hollow and devoid of any emotion, "Mother will take care of it, and I will listen to you."

The mistress looked at him like this, and didn't know what to say for a while.

"What's going on with you and Your Majesty? I heard rumors in the palace today that His Majesty burned the two most cherished wooden figurines in the past."

Pei Mu's eyes, which were not very bright at first, finally came into focus when he heard this.

His eyes were full of surprise, "What did you say?"

As if he didn't hear clearly, his movements were a little slow and his voice was difficult.
