there is a stupid emperor

Ms. Zhang had lunch with us at my 'gracious' invitation.

The so-called invitation is nothing more than that.

"Do you want to stay for dinner?"

"Okay."

...I didn't even need to ask, I thought she wouldn't want to stay, after all, I was too naive.

Lunch was very slow, I was used to being served by the palace people in the palace, although Zhu Yougui often didn't like to be watched by the servants when eating in the Song Mansion, but I still rarely did anything, basically Zhu Yougui was caring for me. .

I'm quite used to it, he used to be like this when he was having dinner in the flower hall, and Zhu Yougui was also used to it, after all, in his heart I'm just a weak little fool, and I'm very delicate.

But Miss Zhang is not used to it.She watched Zhu Yougui's act of picking up food for me, and after a while, she bit her chopsticks and asked, "General Zhu...don't you eat?"

Zhu Yougui didn't answer.

I feel a little embarrassed.

So I answered for Zhu Yougui, "Miss Zhang, do you want to eat chicken drumsticks?" Although the cooking is not as delicious as in my palace, the craftsmanship is still acceptable.

Ms. Zhang never refused to come, the two chicken legs ate one, and I ate the other silently.

After dinner, it was time for a nap, but seeing Miss Zhang still didn't want to leave, I thought she might not be able to fall asleep, so why, Miss Zhang suggested that we go out to play.

I looked at Zhu Yougui, Zhu Yougui refused the request, "You'd better not move around too much."

Oh... I winced.

Ms. Zhang thought I was injured that day, and she looked at me apologetically, "Sorry, I didn't know you were still injured, why don't we go to the yard to bask in the sun."

I like this proposal.

So we continued to nest in the yard, I lay down, and they sat opposite each other across a desk.

"Can you play chess?" I asked.

Miss Zhang scratched her head, "No, I'm not very good at playing piano, chess, calligraphy, or painting."

A lady of every family can't do this.

But in a blink of an eye, I saw that Miss Zhang blushed, showing concern for the little girl, and I added, "It's okay, and neither will Zhu Yougui."

Zhu Yougui curled his lips, "You don't know how to do it, little fool, I am proficient in everything, sir?"

"Oh?" I lay on the chair and looked at him, "Then let's do a dance." The voice was flat.

Zhu Yougui threw a stone across my face without hurting me, "You bask in your sun!"

hum.

I feel that there are outsiders around, Zhu Yougui is very reserved and not friendly at all.

I closed my eyes, "Why don't I sing a song for you?" Miss Zhang suggested.

Proposal passed.

She began to hum a song, the tone was long and sad, and it sounded like a boudoir, but it sounded so familiar to me that I was able to hum along with it.

Ms. Zhang shut her mouth when she heard me humming, and looked at me with a bad face. I closed my eyes and didn't pay attention, but Zhu Yougui noticed, and he asked Ms. Zhang, "What's wrong?"

Miss Zhang said embarrassingly. "It's nothing, this is a song from my hometown. I thought that no one could sing it except me." The way she looked at me changed.

Zhu Yougui didn't take this matter to heart.

Before Miss Zhang could continue singing, a servant came to report that Han Qing and Pei Qingshu had arrived.

Zhu Yougui wanted to invite the two of them here, but the servants said that the two were staying in the gazebo dead and alive, and asked Zhu Yougui to take the wine and drink freely.

I don't know what kind of crazy Han Qing is going crazy again, so I waved my hand to signal Zhu Yougui to leave me alone.

Ms. Zhang also hurriedly said that she wanted to sit with me in the yard, and General Zhu just went to work if he had something to do.

Then Zhu Yougui left, except for the breeze and the sun, I was the only one left in the yard.

"You..." Miss Zhang spoke, and she was a little hesitant according to the tone.

I closed my eyes and felt the warmth of the sun on my face.

In the end, Ms. Zhang couldn't hold back.

"You wore it too, didn't you?"

I opened my eyes and looked at her.

A very strange sentence, on the surface, it should be a very strange sentence to me, but what is even stranger is that I understand what she said.

She asked me, did you wear it too?

That is to say, she is wearing it.

Wearing... I think of the woman who was hit by the car, I think of the name Lin Zuo, I think of the woman who told me to go back quickly, and the me in the dream.

"Don't look at me and don't talk, that song is a modern song, and you will too! You must have worn it, right!" She asked me impatiently, obviously trying to lower her voice, but unconsciously amplified it a lot .

"...What?" I still chose to deny it, because I thought of the child in the dream who told me that it doesn't make sense to think of everything.

I can vaguely guess who I am now, I mean my identity.

But what's the point, like what I saw, a piece of blood, I can even see brains in the blood.

You say, what does it mean when I think about it?

I just need to know that I am who I am.At least, for now, I am still me.

But the girl Zhang in front of her is not satisfied with the status quo. "You didn't wear it? Then how do you know that song? You must be! Don't lie to me!"

I want to laugh.

What's the point if she knows it.

"What are you talking about?" I asked slowly, as if I really didn't understand anything.

Miss Zhang lowered her eyes, a little frustrated, "You're not... Hey, why aren't you..."

I squinted and looked at the distant sun, "Then what are you?" I asked casually.

The wind blew across the small yard, and I was covered with a thin blanket brought by Zhu Yougui himself, and the pillow behind my head was also Zhu Yougui's exclusive use.

Sitting on the chair in front of the case, Miss Zhang sighed, "Hey...it's all right."

She didn't say anything, and I didn't ask, as long as I understand.

Suddenly I stopped talking, I am not a person who talks a lot.

Although Miss Zhang talked a lot, she didn't know what she was thinking at this moment, so she kept silent.

Then don't talk, I closed my eyes again.

Miss Zhang left after sitting for a while. I slept quietly in the yard for a while, and then I heard that Zhu Yougui seemed to be back.

I opened my eyes, only to see that it was getting late, and the colorful clouds in the sky came out, burning half of the sky red.

Zhu Yougui came in from the yard, and I could smell the alcohol all over his body. It seemed that he had drunk a lot. I asked the attendant who came in with him. Han Qing was also drunk and was coaxed away by Pei Qingshu. This is the result of their drinking. Han Qing doesn't drink well and gets drunk again and again, Pei Qingshu doesn't care about this.

Zhu Yougui waved his servants back and walked towards my imperial concubine chair.

I shrank back to the side to make room for him to sit.In fact, I wanted to kick him to the ground more, but after thinking about it, this is a family, I'd better be more polite.

Instead of sitting down, he lay down with me.

The concubine chair I was lying on was basically the size of a couch, quite big, but it was still a bit crowded when Zhu Yougui arrived, I was hugged by him, it stinks...

I still couldn't help kicking him, but I didn't kick him down.

"Han Qing is leaving." Zhu Yougui said, I frowned, "Oh."

It's none of my business.

"King Fengxiang raised his troops to rebel."

"Oh."

It turned out that Master Zhu was not the only one who wanted to rebel, I even thought maliciously, Master Zhu's head would be blown up now.

"……..sorry."

He spoke very slowly, making me mistakenly think that his tone was very flat, but this sentence of apology made me feel sad and sad.

Why say sorry?

"I'll forgive you if you go down." It stinks to death.

But Zhu Yougui didn't listen, he said again, "I'm sorry."

It's weird, it's weird coming in from the yard.

I turned to face him, his eyes drooped slightly, I couldn't see anything inside.

"I'm sorry little fool," he said again, and the smell of alcohol rushed straight up my nose.

He never said anything when he was drunk, and I asked him, "What's wrong?"

As soon as the words came out of my mouth, I felt like I had a feeling. I felt that the answer I got must be something I didn't want to hear, so I said again: "Are you talking about Miss Zhang? Are you going to marry her? It's okay."

Or your father decides to take the throne from me, it doesn't matter, it's not your turn to apologize.

Zhu Yougui hugged me tightly and didn't speak for a long time.

Did I guess right?I felt a pain in my heart, but my face was still calm, and I said in a flat tone: "Gao Gao told me that you will get married sooner or later, it doesn't matter."

"You don't have to apologize to me, I've thought about this kind of thing for a long time..."

Before I finished speaking, I was interrupted by Zhu Yougui.

"They want Princess Pingyuan to marry her."

"And... pro?"

"With King Fengxiang?"

"No, with the son of King Fengxiang."

I frowned, it sounded familiar, but why did I make a kiss, "Because I don't want him to turn against me?"

"No, because I don't want to fight."

Every sentence Zhu Yougui replied to me was...strange, he seemed to be controlling something.

I looked at Zhu Yougui's slightly apologetic and cautious face, and suddenly thought of something, and I grabbed his collar tightly, "Who is Princess Pingyuan?"

....

"Li Ruiyi."

The three words with the smell of alcohol rushed to his face.

I pushed him away and sat up abruptly, stepped on the ground before I put on my shoes and stood up and asked him, "What are they going to do to Ruiyi?"

I think I must look very fierce.

"Send to marry."

Zhu Yougui was really ruthless, not only to Ms. Zhang, but also to me, especially ruthless. He just told me in such a flat tone that Ruiyi was going to be sent away.

Marriage?

Funny?

impossible!I don't agree!

For a moment, the blood rushed to my forehead, and I was speechless. I just looked at him straight, and he also sat up, "What Pei Qingshu said, the court has already made a decision, and King Fengxiang's move is very Da, if you can appease them without spending a single soldier, then you can only get married, and King Fengxiang has also appointed Princess Pingyuan."

"Shut up!" I casually picked up the pen holder on the desk and threw it at Zhu Yougui without thinking.

Shut up!Shut up!What nonsense!

Zhu Yougui didn't dodge either, I hit him on the forehead, and his skin turned red.

"Although...I really want to comfort you, but for the army, for the country, marriage...is unavoidable."

"Get out!" I shouted at him, "Master Zhu must be paying attention! It must be! I am so obedient! Why did you send Ruiyi away? Why did you bully Ruiyi! Am I not obedient enough?!"

My voice is not loud, but very hoarse.

Like a trapped animal, I couldn't find a way out.

Ruiyi cannot be protected.

"You must have a solution, right? You have seen Ruiyi, she is so small! Zhu Yougui! You can't send her away! She is my sister!" I tugged at Zhu Yougui's clothes.

Zhu Yougui hugged me in his arms, "I'm sorry."

I don't want to apologize, I just want Ruiyi, didn't you say to protect me, why can't you do this, why do you have to sacrifice Ruiyi?Ruiyi is still so young, if King Fengxiang wants to rebel, then he should rebel, anyway, the throne is not mine, sooner or later someone else will take it, why not.

I closed my eyes, suppressed everything, and opened them again.

Pushing Zhu Yougui away, I looked directly at him, "I want to go back to the palace."

I tried my best not to sound so fluctuating, not even trembling.

I don't know if I succeeded, because my mind was full of thoughts, I can't let them hurt Ruiyi, I want to go back to the palace, I want to go back to protect her.

I'm Ruiyi's older brother.

It is my responsibility.

Zhu Yougui pursed his lips, "Little fool, listen carefully, I know you are very sad, let alone that there are old men in the palace, even the court has no one who can help you, but you have to remember, if you insist on If you want to do something, then I will definitely help you, I have the military power, if it is not good enough, I will go to war, the final destination of the soldiers is to die on the battlefield, but I hope that what they do is meaningful."

"And relatives...have existed since ancient times."

I looked at him, "When I held her for the first time, I made up my mind to protect my sister. That's the kind, even if I die, I want her to protect me alive."

I think I am extremely clear at this time.

Because I saw Zhu Yougui's helpless wry smile.

"Who will say you are a fool in the future, I will be the first to disobey him. Let's go, I will send you back."
