Twilight Cloud Returns

Yun Chuxiu really wanted to slap herself to death!

He thought over and over again, finally swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said tremblingly at the end: "I...I don't like..."

Yun Chuxiu herself felt that this answer was unreasonable, and her tone became lower and lower.

"Really?" Wuqing suddenly threw the book on the table aside, his voice suddenly raised, and the anger accumulated between his brows was obvious.

Yun Chuxiu is not as cowardly as a fat man who is afraid of getting into trouble, like an eggplant beaten by frost, she doesn't dare to breathe, she just dares to reply: "Yes, yes..."

Wuqing saw that he had a good attitude of admitting his mistakes, and most of the anger surging in his chest disappeared.

Sensing that the situation had eased, Yun Chuxiu regained her spirits immediately, carefully got up from the cold ground, rubbed her knees and sat down on another chair.

Seeing that Wuqing really forgave him, the instinct of restraint for a quarter of an hour was immediately released—with Erlang's legs crossed, he picked up the seasonal fruit in front of him and gnawed, and he did not forget to tell Wuqing what he saw in Ningshou Palace today: "The Queen Mother wants to To offer a marriage, I chose Xue Wanjun, the daughter of Xue Liandao, the governor of Yangzhou. But don't worry, I will definitely refuse!"

Wuqing squinted at him, "So you humiliated Miss Xue?"

Hearing this, Yun Chuxiu almost choked to death on the fruit, coughed a few times and said: "Those scumbags out there who spread rumors and make troubles for fear of chaos in the world, it's not enough to harm the king's reputation, now they have to get innocent girls Yes, I am really not afraid of retribution!"

Wuqing has seen a lot about this kind of unreasonable disaster, and now he treats it with a lot of calmness, "They don't believe in karma, so naturally they won't keep their words."

Talking about Xue Wanjun, Wuqing suddenly remembered an important matter, and asked: "Why did the Queen Mother suddenly give you a marriage?"

Yun Chuxiu didn't understand the inside story, but when he saw Wuqing's nervous look, he immediately started teasing again, and said in a muddled way: "Oh, it's not because I'm alone, thinking that someone else can help me. Take care of one or two by your side..."

"If you marry me as soon as possible, won't you be able to stop that old woman from wanting to marry me?"

He blinked his eyes like stars twinkling in the night sky, and his words that seemed to be joking were mixed with all his passionate true feelings.

"I..." Wuqing didn't expect Zhi to say such a sentence suddenly, he firmly grabbed the handle of the chair, nervousness, shyness, excitement and fear flashed across his face.

Although the folk customs in Dazhou are open, it is not uncommon for men to find some beautiful men to have fun, but many of them are just for a while, and they can't be found when they get tired of playing.There are endless stories of chaos and abandonment.

Ordinary people marrying a concubine is still famous and rewarding, but men live together with men, they are not included in the genealogy, and they are not included in the ancestral temple.In the eyes of others, if it sounds good, it means two people are in love with each other, and if it sounds bad, it is dead.

Wuqing did not dare to have extravagant hopes, nor did he want to know that he would risk the disgrace of the world and be the No. 1 one who destroyed the ancestral system.

He put away all the emotions just now, regarded it as just a joke, pretended to be relaxed and said: "You are used to coaxing me with these nice words! I will not be fooled by your prodigal little prince!"

He pretended to have seen through Yun Chuxiu's "conspiracies and tricks", and left the wing room gracefully.Little did he know that the latter had a panoramic view of all his changes, Yun Chuxiu looked at his leaving figure, and felt uncomfortable in his heart—Ah Qing didn't trust him, didn't believe that he was willing to be No.1 who created the world, Take him as your wife in a fair way.

What about men?

It doesn't matter whether he is a man or a woman when two hearts are opposite each other!

The news that the Empress Dowager wanted to betroth Xue Wanjun to the young father-in-law only spread for a few days, and gradually faded out of the sight of the common people without any explosive follow-up.

This is the case with gossip and gossip. Others see it as fresh and happy, and think that what they spread is harmless, and they forget it in a few days.But they didn't know what impact it had on the parties, and sometimes they even lived under the haze of those days for the rest of their lives.

It has been more than ten days since the news from the capital reached Yangzhou with a delay. Xue's father and daughter believed the rumors outside. Bu Jiu kowtowed to apologize and begged to marry Jun Jun, he would never marry his daughter to such a second generation ancestor!However, Xue Wanjun's reputation was tarnished, and since then she has never left her home, shed tears every day.

The Empress Dowager saw that what had been a good marriage was now in such a state, she never mentioned this matter again, and in the name of praising Xue Liandao for his loyalty to the Lord, she rewarded some rare items for the family's face.

Although they escaped the marriage offer, no one expected such an ending.

Yun Chuxiu felt uneasy, and thought about personally apologizing to Governor Xue in person at the meeting of the officials.

As the anecdote about the young man came to an end, the eyes of the people in the capital turned to the other two upstarts in the court—Liu Yi and Wei Guoan.

Although Liu Yi is a rough old man, no one would have expected that he is actually a wife slave in his bones!

How many high-ranking officials and dignitaries wanted to build relationships, so they went all out to send such beautiful women as concubines to General Hushi's mansion, but they were all thrown out of the mansion by this rough man Liu Yi mercilessly.

This road can't be flattered, and it happens that there is Wei Guoan who is not yet married.

Not only is he not as rough-tempered as Liu Yi, but he is also humble and polite in his dealings with others.At the age of 25, and with a handsome appearance, he is deeply trusted by the Holy One.Although he is only a deputy at the moment, he has a promising future and is a potential stock.

As a result, Wei Guoan immediately became the second ideal husband-in-law of a woman in the capital waiting for a wife, and the matchmaker who came to the door to talk about marriage almost broke the threshold of Wei's mansion.

Fortunately, the Wei Mansion hasn't been repaired yet, otherwise Wei Guo'an would have reinforced the threshold countless times!

This kind of remarks naturally also spread to the palace, and the unconscious talk of the maids while washing clothes fell into the ears of Xiao Zhongzi, and a hint of darkness flashed across the bottom of his eyes...

A few days later, Liang Deying sent him out of the palace to do some shopping, but in fact he was sent back to the Wei Mansion to meet his elder brother.

Liang Deying is the No. 1 in the palace. Seeing that the little loyal sons are respected by their elder brothers, he no longer orders each little loyal son one by one, so he changed his name to Zhong Gonggong.

When my elder brother returns to court, he will definitely miss his relatives.He deliberately pushed the boat to sell Xiao Zhongzi as a favor so that he could erase the past account.

Wei Guoan was ecstatic when he saw Ah Zhong came back, wishing to give him all the good things he had, for fear of being bullied by those sinister and cunning old eunuchs in the palace.

Xiao Zhongzi watched from behind, and the love that had been hidden in his heart for many years broke out.We haven't seen each other for a few years, and God knows how much he misses him just by passing the words of mutual well-being through letters.

Every time he receives a letter, he always caresses the long-drained handwriting carefully, imagining what kind of expression his brother will have when he writes, whether it is joy, excitement, or just like him, pouring his heart full of love carefully. Turned into words on paper...

Thinking of this, Xiao Zhongzi stretched out his hand out of nowhere, wanting to hug the man in front of him that he missed so much.

Wei Guoan was packing some gold and silver in Ah Zhong's parcel, when a pair of slender hands suddenly covered his waist, and the movement of his hands stopped suddenly.

When he was young, Ah Zhong liked to hug his legs from behind and ask for lotus seed cakes coquettishly; when he got taller, he blocked his waist and asked for lotus seed cakes.

But now, Wei Guoan looked down at the jade-like hands with unexplained reasons, feeling uncomfortable in his heart, as if it was no longer the emotion of playing with brothers when he was a child...

He dodged it calmly, pretending that everything was as usual, and joked: "Now I am as tall as my brother, why do I still like to play tricks when I was a child..."

Xiao Zhongzi retracted his hands into his wide sleeves in a guilty conscience, forcibly suppressed the emotions that were about to surge out, and concealed them very well, and said with a smile: "No matter how tall you are as a brother, you are also a brother who is three years younger."

Seeing his calm smile, Wei Guoan deeply felt that he was thinking too much, and he was instantly relieved. The hand that held the sword all year round finally rubbed his hair and said, "Okay, it's up to you..."

While talking, the servant girl came in, put down a plate of cakes and said: "Master, you asked the servant girl to buy lotus seed cake."

The lotus seed cake has just been steamed and is still steaming on the plate.

Wei Guoan picked up the bamboo chopsticks on the side, picked up a piece, carefully blew away the heat, and brought it to Ah Zhong's mouth: "I remember you used to like it the most. Try it quickly to see if it suits your appetite."

When Xiao Zhongzi saw that he was still thinking about his favorite lotus seed cake, a wave of emotion surged in his heart.He took a bite and nodded, "It's delicious."

Seeing that Ah Zhong liked it, Wei Guoan was very satisfied with the lotus cake bought by his servant, and said happily to her, "Go down and receive the reward in a while."

The servant girl who received the reward was clever and could talk: "As soon as the master saw that the second master came to the mansion today, he immediately ordered the maidservant to buy lotus seed cakes, saying that the second master likes this lotus seed cake the most, and the mansion should always keep it in the future. Grandpa can eat it every time he visits.”

These words made Xiao Zhongzi warm, a blush crept up his brows quietly, very much like the appearance of a newlywed woman in the capital when she first met her husband.

But too many words will lead to loss, once the servant girl is proud, she loses her sense of proportion: "Now everyone in the capital is saying that if a young lady of any family can marry this caring and meticulous master of the Wei Manor, it will be a beautiful marriage for a lifetime. !"

Xiao Zhongzi's face darkened in an instant, and the servant girl didn't know what she said wrong, but felt that the second master's face was very creepy in the blink of an eye, so she quickly backed away.

Wei Guoan was not happy about these rumors. To marry a wife is to marry a good man. Family status and appearance are all the most important things. As long as you have good moral character, can bear hardships and stand hard work, and treat your brothers kindly, that's the best.

Seeing that his elder brother had no objection to these words, Xiao Zhongzi felt a little flustered, and asked tentatively, "Brother, when do you plan to get married?"

"Don't rush for a while. When I make more military exploits and our family looks good, I will find a virtuous and virtuous sister-in-law for you..."

"Then... how about not marrying a sister-in-law... we two brothers depend on each other just like when we were children, isn't it good..." Xiao Zhongzi boldly said.

When Wei Guoan heard this, his doubts about those hands were rekindled just now.He wanted to dispel the idea of ​​brother, no matter what, they are brothers, the fact that this life cannot be changed, there can be no other relationship.

Therefore, Wei Guoan deliberately laughed loudly and said, "Is there any man in the world who doesn't marry a wife? I think my brother is getting dizzy from this lotus seed cake today!"
