I heard you want to let me down

In the end, Liu Yi failed to bring back the marriage certificate.

After all, it is absurd and unheard of to welcome a man into the palace with national ceremonies.If Gu Nian hadn't personally written the letter, based on Liu Yi's one-sided words, Shao Guo would never have taken it seriously.

But Liu Yi also completely achieved his goal, he brought the man back.He suggested that since Rong Jin might marry His Majesty, as a subject, he would never watch Rong Jin go back to Changyan Gorge to suffer. He hoped that Rong Jin could go to Chen Country with him first, and then discuss this matter with His Majesty.His attitude was frank and sincere, and everyone in Shao Guo believed this matter to some extent.

This is nothing, if it is true that the two countries discuss marriage, it is common for princesses to live in other countries for a few years in advance to cultivate their relationship, let alone chaste men.Of course, it was not in the name of pre-marital contact.As an envoy, Rong Jin brought a symbolic gift to congratulate Gu Nian on his succession, and followed Liu Yi on the road to Chen Kingdom.

It was useless for Rong Jin to object, and of course he did not object.Isn't staying there better than Changyan Gorge? Besides, he also wants to see Gu Nian.He wanted to dispel Gu Nian's idea.

When there were only him and Liu Yi, Rong Jin also asked Liu Yi why such a ridiculous thing happened.

When he was with Gu Nian back then, Liu Yi treated him with respect.Liu Yi bowed his head: "The minister is only following orders."

Rong Jin was helpless.The emperor was confused for a while, shouldn't the courtiers advise him?It's up to him to do whatever he wants?Liu Yi like this, in the history books, is a capitalized sycophant.

The system also asked him: [Host, do you not want to reconcile with Gu Nian because you promised to leave after ten years in prison? 】

【no.Since I can stay for ten years, it must be negotiable to stay for more time.Brother Tong, I don't want to have many scruples, the most important thing is because he has become the emperor. 】

[What's the difference, isn't it still the same person? 】

【no. 】Rong Jin leaned on the carriage, 【In fact, I think that the emperor has completely broken away from the scope of human beings, and has become a brand new, unpredictable and dangerous species. 】

[But don't you get along well with the emperor of Shao Kingdom? 】

【yes.Five points for sincerity, eight points for weighing pros and cons.I treat His Majesty the same way, Your Majesty treats me the same way.Will I live like this with Gu Nian in the future? ] Rong Jin shook his head, 【When I watched Gongdou drama with my mother, I used to think, if a person controls your life and your family, how can you fall in love?It's too late to wait carefully, talk about love and love, isn't this courting death? 】

Rong Jin closed his eyes: [Besides, which emperor have you ever seen who didn't have children?There is such a huge country, which obviously has an heir, but it has to be handed over to others because of a man.Who would?I don't think I'm so attractive. 】

【I guess Gu Nian is willing. 】

[He is willing now, but what if he is not willing in the future?It's not a modern love relationship, and if the three views disagree, they will break up.If I really agree and "marry" into Chen Country, then the love will fade away, and for the sake of Shao Country, I have to die by Gu Nian's side. 】

He didn't mean that he couldn't trust Gu Nian's character, but he really didn't dare to have such confidence. He had seen too much love and affection, but within three to five years, his face was completely changed.What's more, it will be eight years, ten years, twenty years, who can say for sure when the time comes, he dare not put himself in such a powerless situation where he can only rely on the "sincerity" of others.

The system reminded him: [We can leave then. 】

【If you think about staying for the rest of your life, you can still take a gamble; if you think about leaving at that time, you can't agree.The newborn consciousness deserves to be a concubine in the cold palace for a lifetime?No matter how you think about it, it won't work. 】

【But if Gu Nian insists on going, you have to go. 】

Rong Jin sighed: 【That's why I'm troubled.Now I can only see how much he has changed in the past three years, and he still retains some of the old friendship for me. 】

……

Halfway through the return trip, Liu Yi sent someone to deliver a letter to Gu Nian.Therefore, as soon as he entered the capital, he was called into the Imperial Study Room without resting for a moment.

"I pay respects to Your Majesty."

Gu Nian drove everyone out, almost pulling Liu Yi by the collar: "Didn't I say, don't bother him?"

Liu Yi reminded softly: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you claim to have forgotten."

Gu Nian gritted her teeth: "Yes. Didn't I say, don't bother him?"

Liu Yi said softly: "But what Your Majesty said at the beginning was that if Mr. Rong is doing well, don't bother him."

Gu Nian seemed to have been hit on the head by a heavy object all of a sudden, and it seemed that a long-standing nightmare had finally come true. He quietly supported the table with one hand, and then mustered up the courage to ask: "Is he doing well?"

Liu Yi didn't dare to tell Gu Nian about Rong Jin's exile in the letter, he was afraid that something would happen because Gu Nian cared about Rong Jin.Until now, he had brought Rong Jin back, and was safely beside Gu Nian, finally dared to mention this matter to Gu Nian: "It's not good."

"He's not doing very well. Your Majesty, why don't you go and see Mr. Rong?"

……

It stands to reason that envoys naturally have places to live.Rong Jin did not come alone, the other envoys were well arranged to go to the embassy, ​​but he was taken elsewhere alone.But this is the family's home court, so guests can do as they please, the person who led the way said that Liu Yi ordered it, and Rong Jin also had a good temper and didn't ask any more questions.

This is a house.Rong Jin got out of the carriage and was already in the backyard.

He inquired, and learned that there was no master's family living in this house, except for the servants, he was the only one living there.Everyone respected him, including the housekeeper.He tentatively made some requests, and no matter what, they were quickly satisfied.

Rong Jin knew that this should be Liu Yi's special order.It seems that Rong Jin smiled wryly, Gu Nian really liked him quite a bit.

Gu Nian has just become the emperor, and he has a lot of things to do every day. It must take a day or two before he can find time to see him.Rong Jin tidied up, he was free and he didn't intend to go out to make things difficult for others, so he just walked around the house.

This house is very big, just looking at the layout and area, it looks a bit like the palace of the Shao Kingdom.But the decoration is too plain.Moreover, which palace doesn't even have half a master.

Rong Jin thought aimlessly while walking, it seems that the land of Chen Kingdom is indeed much larger than that of Shao Kingdom, a house that is idle in the middle of the capital can be so big!Many customs of Chen Kingdom are different from those of Shao Kingdom, and the setting of the house is quite interesting.Rong Jin didn't feel bored while walking and watching.

Until he walked outside a courtyard, his footsteps subconsciously slowed down.

This courtyard has never been seen before, so why does it look so familiar?It's obviously different, the walls are different, much higher than that of the small broken courtyard, and the cornices are also different, the small courtyard back then didn't even have the decoration of the cornices.But why does it feel so familiar?

He walked slowly along the path to the wall, touching the white wall in a daze.He suddenly looked up and looked around.There were very few servants in this house, and no one followed him when he went out for a stroll.Now there is no one around.

He turned over the wall neatly, and couldn't help but look in the direction facing the yard.

Opposite is really a promenade.But there was no one in the corridor.

Rong Jin covered his face with a broken smile.God, what are you thinking.Lovelorn is really deranged.I don't even think about how it is possible.Gu Nian is no longer the idle person who was idle all day long, sitting and waiting for you. How could he just happen to appear here when you flipped over the wall casually?

People really are, even if they explain the truth clearly, they have made up their minds and said it swearingly.But what you think in your heart, only you know.Accidentally, that deeply hidden thought will come out embarrassingly and bluntly.

He didn't want to go down either, sitting on the wall, with the breeze blowing past his face, it was very comfortable.Ever since Liu Yi said those words at the banquet, the strings in his heart have been tense.He was afraid that Gu Nian would not give in, and he was even more afraid that if he was not careful, the courage and firmness that had been accumulated for three years and became solid day by day would be defeated.

He really likes Gu Nian.In all his life, he had never liked someone so much.Maybe, in this life, I will never like others so much again.But he really couldn't accept being a "wife" or even a "servant" under the ancient marriage standards.

Sitting here now, with no one around, his eyes wide open, the thoughts that had been hidden so hard emerged quietly, but they would not be noticed by anyone, and he felt a little more relaxed on the contrary.

He closed his eyes and decided to indulge himself for a quarter of an hour, quietly recalling the past moments with Gu Nian.

At that time Liu Yi stopped him like a thief, and he developed the habit of jumping over the wall.Even though she knew he couldn't fall, Gu Nian couldn't help but say a few words to him when she saw him.

Then, he really heard that familiar voice, trembling and anxious.

"This wall is much higher than the previous one. I really can't climb over it casually. Get down quickly."
