Chapter 10
Finally, I saw Bai Shier. The emperor's eyes were full of curiosity, and the anger contained in his eyes before disappeared.
It seemed that the turbulent anger that had just been aroused by Zhu Jinxuan did not exist at all.
"twelve."
Compared to the emperor who was full of curiosity, Mo Bin and the other two with a complex expression of curiosity, resentment, and anger, Zhu Jinxuan immediately had a bright brilliance on her face as flowers blooming when she saw Bai Shier.
If it weren't for his own emperor brother standing behind and watching, I'm afraid Zhu Jinxuan would have already pounced on him.
If you don’t see each other for a day, it’s like three autumns apart.
Especially after he had already confirmed his relationship with Bai Shier and developed feelings for him, he was a time of deep love and was forced to separate for several days. At this time, he wanted to see him, and he was naturally filled with emotions and extremely excited.
"Ahem."
However, even though Zhu Jinxuan had already restrained her inner excitement and excitement and restrained the urge to pounce over and embrace Bai Shier closely, her affectionate name still made Bai Shier cough.
Of course, he was not embarrassed in front of outsiders, but because, facing the emperor, when Zhu Jinxuan called out the affectionate "Twelve" and saw the other party's face that immediately turned dark.
Not to mention the emperor, even if an ordinary family has never seen his family before, they will look a little awkward and embarrassed when they first meet their parents. Considering that Zhu Jinxuan is almost the same as being with her "elopement", this sense of embarrassment and tension will undoubtedly become even stronger.
This was reflected in the fullest from the emperor, Mo Bin and the other two who had already watched Bai Shier, and after hearing Zhu Jinxuan's "Twelve" shout, he immediately lowered his head deeply.
"Ahem, um!"
Hearing Bai Shier's coughing, the emperor finally came back to his senses from the dissatisfaction, anger and faint jealousy of Bai Shier's conversation. Then he realized that there were three ministers behind him. He quickly calmed down the anger on his face, cleared his throat, and ordered the three of them.
"You three will go out first."
I didn't even want to stay here with a breath, and felt that every breath was a huge torture of my mind. After hearing the emperor's order, I was naturally as if I had received a general amnesty. I didn't even dare to say anything and left the room at the most agile speed in my life.
"call!"
Until they finally walked out of the room, closed the door, and finally became two worlds inside and outside the room, the three of them opened their mouths and breathed a long sigh, and then couldn't help but roll up their cuffs and wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads.
If those civil servants in the court were the ones, they would definitely not leave at this time. On the contrary, if those civil servants, especially those censors of the Tao, saw this scene, they would be very excited and immediately twitched all over, and then raised various saints' principles and ancestral etiquette, stood at the commanding heights of morality and began to engage in a full-scale war of words against the emperor, and criticized Bai Shier and Zhu Jinxuan.
But Mo Bin, Jiang Zhun was the emperor's close minister. In order to improve the status of Liushemen, Guo Ju naturally did not dare to make any noise about it. On the contrary, they had to keep their mouths tight. Like Mo Bin and Jiang Zhun, they had to use the most severe means to make the many subordinates responsible for protecting the emperor tonight who had completely forgotten what happened today.
To eliminate disasters for the emperor is their "fundamental task".
...
"Well, Bai Shier has seen his elder brother."
After only three "family members" were left in the room, Bai Shier could only pretend to be serious and clear his throat, and greeted the emperor with a stern look.
However, it is obvious that he was not very interested in the emperor's identity, and he didn't even mention it. He just called out "Big Brother" according to Zhu Jinxuan's relationship.
"Hmph! I don't remember that I have a younger brother or brother-in-law like you."
The emperor was not angry because Bai Shier deliberately ignored his identity, but even just talking about the identity of Brother Zhu Jinxuan, he had a lot of anger and dissatisfaction with Bai Shier in his heart. In order to show that he was not suppressing others as the emperor, he directly abandoned the self-proclaimed "I", like an ordinary brother whose sister was abducted, and spoke in resentment.
"The orders of parents, the words of matchmakers. Three books and six betrothal gifts. Even if Xuan'er is not the royal princess and princesses, she is just an ordinary girl, these etiquette procedures should be quite a lot, right?"
The emperor glared at Zhu Jinxuan who wanted to act coquettishly, blocked her words back, and slowly walked to Bai Shier, questioning Bai Shier without any concealment.
"But what about you? Don't talk about the appointment letter and you are awarded a lottery. I even knew about you two from the secret letter sent by Hu Xiaolin. If he hadn't said it, would you just plan to elope with Xuan'er and let her spend her whole life with you without any status in her life?"
“…”
Bai Shier was scolded and scolded by the emperor, but because he knew that he was inappropriate, he could only stand there silently with a little embarrassment and guilt on his face, lowering his head, and enduring the saliva attack of his "brother-in-law".
"I heard that your ancestors were also famous chivalrous men in the world. Although they were born in the world, they could barely be regarded as a "famous family" in the world. Since that's the case, you should go to the Six Gates to do things. I will ask Guo Ju to arrange everything. After you leave the Six Gates to make some contributions, I will find an opportunity to give a marriage."
After firmly standing firmly and spraying Bai Shier that he could not even return to his mouth, the emperor looked much more relaxed and said to Bai Shier.
"But before that, you and Xuan'er can't meet again! What's the point of being alone and widowed together all day long!"
But it seemed that because he was worried that his "preferential treatment" would cause Bai Shier and Zhu Jinxuan to have some bad thoughts, the emperor immediately looked at him again, and he was stern and ordered Bai Shier and Zhu Jinxuan with an unquestionable look on his face.
At this time, he became the lord of the dynasty with one word and ninety-five lords.
The emperor felt that the long-thought-out condition he had put forward should satisfy Bai Shier and Zhu Jinxuan. Even if there were any objections, it should be just a few differences in small details.
But unfortunately, Bai Shier obviously didn't think so.
"Ahem. Thank you for thinking about me like this, but I have long been used to wandering around the world with free spirits. I appreciate my brother-in-law's kindness. As for Xuan'er, she is an independent person and has grown up. No matter what choice she makes, I will accept it with pleasure, even if she stays for this, she will leave me far away."
Bai Shier said as he looked at Zhu Jinxuan beside him, with a gentle smile on his face, and Zhu Jinxuan was looked at by his warm gaze, and her face couldn't help but feel a little moved.
Seeing that Bai Shier had mercilessly rejected his will, the emperor's face finally turned completely dark.
"Bold, do you know what you are talking about?"
The emperor, who felt that he had made great concessions, was a little angry.
"Marriage events have always been the orders of parents. How can you let those of you who are ignorant of the world make trouble? Besides, as the title of Princess Xianyou, if Xuan'er really leaves the capital with you, how much trouble will it cause?"
The emperor stared at Bai Shier tightly, and at the same time, his eyes couldn't help but glance outside the door, as if he was ready to shout at any time, letting Mo Bin, Guo Ju and others outside the door rushed in, arresting the ignorant boy who was ignorant and did not know any etiquette in front of him, and put him in the imperial prison until he was allowed to submit.
"So, don't you care what Xuan'er thinks and force her to live a life she doesn't want?"
Bai Shier's face was still calm, his eyes were like a clear pond, and he looked at the emperor's angry eyes without any hesitation.
The emperor looked at the angry self in the eyes reflected in the clear pond, and the expression on his face was involuntarily stagnant, especially when he heard Bai Shier continue to ask him in Gu Jing Bubo's tone.
"Is this how you, the elder brother who claims to love her, love her?"
"Hmph! Stubborn!"
After a moment of silence, the expression on the emperor's face returned to his mind, and he snorted and spoke sarcastically.
"Xuan'er has been in the palace since she was a child, and she has rich clothes and food. Could it be that she will follow you and wander in the world, and sleep in the open and love her?"
"Ha, whether it's a breeze or a rich and elegant meal, I have already said that the decision is entirely in Xuan'er's hands. Even if you are his elder brother and the supreme emperor, you have no right to choose for her."
In the face of the emperor's ridicule, Bai Shier just smiled plainly.
"And, I may not be able to let Xuan'er have a rich and elegant dress like in the palace, but I cannot let Xuan'er sleep with me. After all, I have always been a person who likes to enjoy it. Sleeping in the open and open is not in line with my preferences."
"Brother, I don't want to be tied into a cage like a canary for the rest of my life. Even if the cage is so exquisite, it seems to me it is just a prison."
Just when the two were in stalemate, Zhu Jinxuan, who was beside her, finally found the opportunity to interrupt. Regardless of her brother's gaze that seemed to want to eat people, she reached out to hold Bai Shier's palm tightly, with a firm face and a very firm tone.
Obviously, she had made a decision in her heart a long time ago.
"Xuan'er,"
When he was in a stalemate with Bai Shier, the emperor, who was suddenly "stunned" by his sister, couldn't help but feel a little sore, but Bai Shier just repeatedly emphasized that he should respect Zhu Jinxuan's own wishes. If he showed his elder brother's majesty as before and scolded Zhu Jinxuan's words, he would inevitably be caught by Bai Shier and endured the disadvantage. Therefore, he could only resist the anger and the fatigue from his heart, and persuaded him with great pains.
"You think so now, it's just that everything you just experienced is too different from the life you had in the past ten years, so it creates a sense of freshness. As time goes by, when this sense of freshness is lost, you will understand that everything you said for your brother today is truly considering your future."
"Hehe, if I really regret it at that time, I would just let Twelve take me back to the capital again. Will you never want to accept me because you are too angry at that time?"
However, in the face of the emperor's earnest persuasion, Zhu Jinxuan gave an answer in a similar way to joke, which made the emperor stunned after hearing this, and then felt a little amused.
He did not directly scold Zhu Jinxuan for being a fool. It was obvious that he had already heard Zhu Jinxuan's firmness in his heart from Zhu Jinxuan's seemingly nonsense answer.
‘I won’t regret it.’
"Okay, even if Xuan'er, you really won't regret it, then what about your princess, Zhao'er, Kang'er? You may never see them again in this life."
Seeing that his earnest persuasion was ineffective, the emperor had to start persuasion from another perspective and mentioned the few people Zhu Jinxuan liked the most. Of course, based on his restraint in character and not wanting to be "joke" by Bai Shier, he did not mention himself.
This time, the expression on Zhu Jinxuan's face was not so firm. She really couldn't bear to leave these close people.
Seeing that this time there seemed to be a chance, the emperor's face couldn't help but show a little earnestness, and at the same time, he could not help but look at Bai Shier with a little vigilant, as if warning him:
Don’t talk nonsense, don’t affect Zhu Jinxuan.
But this time the emperor was obviously a little bit judged by a villain's heart. Bai Shier stood there honestly, his eyes still unrestrained, as if he was full of confidence in the fact that Zhu Jinxuan would eventually be firm in his heart.
Zhu Jinxuan did not "failure" his confidence. After thinking a little tangled for a long time, Zhu Jinxuan's brows stretched and her eyes became firmer again.
"Even if I don't leave with Twelve this time, I will still get married. Even if my husband's family is in the capital, I will not be able to enter the palace every day after I have a husband's family. And if I have a husband's family, especially after I have my own children in the future, I will still inevitably be alienated from the palace."
Zhu Jinxuan looked at the emperor and said her thoughts very seriously. Obviously, she had really thought seriously.
"And, even if I leave with Twelve, in the future, if I miss you, you can come back, right?"
Looking at Zhu Jinxuan's serious expression, the emperor's mood became extremely melancholy.
The young birds grow up and have full wings. After all, they want to leave their nests and see a broader world.
But immediately, he felt something was wrong again.
He hadn't realized before that he finally figured it out after following Bai Shier's thoughts and said so quickly.
He seemed to have been designed by Bai Shier from the beginning.
Bai Shier used some words to make him think that this matter depends entirely on Zhu Jinxuan's wishes. If he forced his opposition, he would not love him. He respected Zhu Jinxuan and would be a bad elder brother.
But he is the emperor and the emperor, why must he do this?!
When the emperor thought of this, his eyes suddenly changed, and then he raised his voice and ordered loudly to the outside of the door.
Chapter completed!
