The Pearl on the Emperor’s Crown - Chapter 59
[Chapter 59]
The tent was silent for a while.
Zhu Yi’s fingers holding the brocade mattress gradually loosened, and then tightened again.
Before, she had no idea in her heart, she didn’t know whether Xie Ying and that Gu Nanci really had a past.
After all, boys and girls of the same age are the daughters of their mentors when they are in their youth, and they often coexist. It is too easy to develop feelings for each other. So she said it intentionally to see how he responded.
But Xie Ying’s first reaction was not to think that she might be given marriage to others by the emperor’s order, but to ask who else she wanted to marry…
Zhu Yi looked up at Xie Ying, sat up from the bed, frowned and said, “What do you mean by asking me who I want to marry? Why am I in this tent? Who do I want to marry, you don’t know?”
Xie Ying stared at Zhu Yi for a moment, put her arms around her shoulder, and said, “I know. I asked the wrong question, Yiyi, your future husband will only be me, don’t think about it.”
Zhu Yi avoided his hand: “You are clearly asking me that because you thought about others just now? Is it because the girl you liked just wanted to marry someone else, and didn’t want to marry you, making you brooding?”
Xie Ying frowned: “What is the princess talking about?”
Zhu Yi simply said directly: “What is the relationship between Gu Nanci and you?”
Xie Ying was silent for a while, but she understood a little, and said, “Who told you about my senior sister?” He paused and asked, “Xie Shao?”
Zhu Yi was startled, what is this about Xie Shao? But she didn’t answer immediately, as if she tacitly agreed.
Xie Ying twitched the corners of his mouth, revealing a faint sneer: “You really met today. Gu Nanci was mentioned. It seems that the princess and Xie Shao had a long talk. What did he tell you about me, that I loved Gu Nanci? The princess still trusts Xie Shao like that.”
Zhu Yi reacted at this time and looked at the man with wide eyes. The word he used was “still trust like this”… Did he know?
Xie Ying also looked at her: “Didn’t the princess know that Xie Shao is Shao Congyi? I’ve seen the princess smile gently at Xie Shao several times at the palace banquet.”
Zhu Yi took two deep breaths before suppressing the fluctuating emotions and regaining his voice: “Yes, I know that he is Shao Congyi. That’s my benefactor, why am I smiling at him. Xie Ying, don’t tell me waiting for you to see him. Your senior sister, you just keep your face straight and don’t even smile?”
“Benevolent.” Xie Ying repeated these two words, lowered his eyes and said, “What’s the matter, I have never had a relationship between a man and a woman for Nanci.”
Zhu Yi was relieved at first, and turned to be stunned. She suppressed her anger and said, “What do you mean, I liked Xie Shao?”
Xie Ying was silent.
Zhu Yi looked at him in disbelief, his heart sank completely. She got out of bed, put on her shoes, and walked out of the tent in silence.
As soon as Xie Ying stretched out his arms, he hugged Zhu Yi into his arms: “Where are you going?”
“I want to go back to Beijing. Please find someone to give me a ride.” Zhu Yi noticed that Xie Ying’s body was slightly stiff, and took the opportunity to pull his hand away. But men would not allow it.
“Let me go!” Zhu Yi reprimanded. She struggled hard, but the man behind her didn’t speak like a stuffy gourd, but he didn’t let go, he just hugged her tighter.
If the other party doesn’t let go, Zhu Yi has nothing to do. When she turned her eyes, she caught a glimpse of a bamboo cage placed under the table where Xie Ying had just sat. It was similar in shape to a bird cage, but much smaller and contained a little rabbit.
The little rabbit was about the size of her hand from head to tail, fleshy, and the fur all over her body was uniform, soft and light gray, not the mottled gray of most hares. In the hare, it is very beautiful.
Is this Xie Ying’s trip out to catch her on the way to relieve her boredom? How can there be such a small bamboo cage in the military camp, I am afraid that the cage is also made by him.
Zhu Yi felt a strange feeling in her heart, and she couldn’t match Xie Ying’s strength, so she simply stopped struggling.
Xie Ying said in a low voice, “Yiyi, it’s my fault. I saw that you didn’t trust others and you didn’t trust me, so I was jealous and lost my mind.”
Zhu Yi felt sour in her heart, but couldn’t help sarcasm: “But do you trust me again? When I smile at someone, you think I like that person.”
Xie Ying said: “Yes, it’s all my fault today.” He turned Zhu Yi and looked into her eyes: “But you are not allowed to leave me any longer.”
Zhu Yi said: “Then you can’t doubt me. Besides, I haven’t seen it today–” She stopped suddenly, she took a nap and saw a corner of the clothes outside the tent, she thought it was Shengling, could it be Xie Shao? But she was always guarded by someone outside her account. Could it be that Xie Shao came here, and Xie Ying’s people told him.
She continued: “I haven’t met Xie Shao, and I haven’t spoken to him. What about Gu Nanci was… Yao Ning told me.”
Yao Ning? Xie Ying heard the words and said, “I understand.”
Both of them calmed down, Xie Ying sat down with Zhu Yi and leaned on each other, neither of them understood why it was like that before. They can’t leave each other at all.
Zhu Yi suddenly asked, “Xie Ying, do you think your senior Nanci sister is beautiful?”
Xie Ying smiled slightly, Zhu Yi seemed to like to ask him if other girls were beautiful?
Zhu Yi stared at him: “Last time, you said that you couldn’t remember what Zhen Xi looked like, and you wouldn’t even remember the appearance of senior sister, right? How will you recognize each other when they come to Beijing someday?”
Xie Ying touched Zhu Yi’s cheek with her finger lightly: “Actually, in my eyes, girls other than princesses all look alike.” You don’t need to ask this question again in the future.
This remark finally made Zhu Yi feel at ease again. She pinched the silver edge of his front and asked again, “But before you met me, you were a good youth. It is said that it was when you knew Mu Shaoai. didn’t like it at all?”
She had heard clearly before that he called Gu Nanci “Senior Sister” and “Nanci” once.
This is still in doubt, Xie Ying thought about how to express it. When he was fifteen years old, he was obsessed with studying the Qimen Dunjia, deploying soldiers in formations, all the young and frivolous are used in his ambitions, and he wanted to train a hero who can look down on the world. He stayed in the military camp for many years and saw Man, I didn’t think about it at all.
At the age of eighteen, he took over the affairs of Weizhou and lived in the palace for many years. Only then did he meet women.
Xie Ying said: “Princess, I was a little late to my feelings. When you were old, I only knew how to fight and kill all day long, and I didn’t have time to think about girls.”
Zhu Yi blushed: “What do you mean when you are my age, are you laughing at me getting enlightened too early?”
Xie Ying was amused by Zhu Yi’s dissatisfaction and muttering, and said with a smile: “It’s not too early, not even half a minute. If the princess wakes up too late, the minister will not be able to get a daughter-in-law.”
There was a hint of anxiety in Zhu Yi’s sweetness: “But we haven’t gotten married yet.”
Xie Ying also frowned slightly, held her hand soothingly, and said, “Come on, Yiyi.”
Zhu Yi snorted, put her head on his shoulder and said, “Xie Ying, then you said, if you knew me when you were fifteen years old, would you be enlightened?” This is the case with girls, who always hope that they are in love with their loved ones. In front of you is a very special one.
“I’m afraid not. When I was fifteen, the princess should still be a short winter melon.” Xie Ying said truthfully.
Zhu Yi’s face fell, and she said dissatisfiedly: “I mean, if you met me now when you were fifteen years old, would you turn a blind eye to me like you did to your senior sister?”
Xie Ying heard that Zhu Yi was compared to Gu Nanci, and smiled: “Of course not. The princess is so beautiful, no matter how old I see the princess, I will not be indifferent.”
Zhu Yi’s ears were slightly hot, and the corners of her lips couldn’t be pressed, but she quickly recalled that Xie Ying once… could not help but wonder: “Then why did you reject me before?”
Xie Ying’s eyes were deep, looked at Zhu Yi, and said after a while: “Princess, you really don’t remember or what, the sword spikes you gave me, haven’t you given them to anyone else?”
