Sui Sui Jianing

Chapter 63

Chu Wuhen glanced at him, "Why did King An say that? You are the Prince of Zhou. Your Majesty has never treated you badly for the sake of good relations between the two countries."

King An hesitated to speak, shook his head and said, "Forget it, you don't understand."

Chu Wuhen: "..."

People who are half-talking are the most annoying.

Xie Shuangge lazily said, "Is he trying to test you? You are probably the only one who can find out that the matter between him and Jiu Si has been brought up in front of the emperor's uncle."

Chu Wuhen thought of this when King An came to talk to him, but he still wanted to see what King An could say. As a result, the ink was smeared for a long time, and only these two specious words came. He was silent for a moment and didn't speak again.

To put it bluntly, what is he with the eldest princess, and what has he to do with it?

……

The two entered the imperial study one after the other. The emperor had been reviewing memorials for several years, his brows were tightly frowned, and he was very upset when he heard the footsteps. Mosquitoes can be crushed to death.

Chu Wuhen was used to the emperor's various expressions, so he didn't react to it. After saluting, he stood aside and dutifully acted as an ice sculpture decoration.

The emperor's sight was unhindered, and it fell on Gongsunye hotly.

Gongsun Ye: "..."

He subconsciously looked at Chu Wuhen and blinked at him: Brother Chu, save me!

Chu Wuhen: "..." He lowered his eyes indifferently.

Didn't see it, didn't know it, he couldn't.

Gongsun Ye: "..."

He tightly clenched his hands hidden under his wide sleeves, took a deep breath and decided to face the reality bravely, bowed to the emperor and said, "Gongsun Ye, I pay my respects to Your Majesty."

The emperor responded lukewarmly: "Yes."

Xie Shuangge tsk-tsk: "No way, uncle is going to show him off."

Gongsunye's prepared words suddenly froze. The emperor's attitude made him speechless.

He stood up straight in silence for a moment, let the emperor look at it, and said after deliberation: "Weiyang is not in good health, and I haven't entered the palace for a long time to pay my respects to His Majesty. I wonder how your Majesty's dragon body is?"

Wei Young, the name of Gongsun Ye.

Back then, Gongsun Ye's mother named him Ye, hoping that he would be as tough and tenacious as a weed, that the wild fire would never burn out, and that the spring breeze would regenerate him.

Therefore, in the year when he was crowned, the emperor of Zhou State rarely thought of him, and bestowed on him the nickname "Weiyang", which means inexhaustible.

The name is a good name, but it is hard to say whether the fate is a good life.

The emperor said with a half-smile, "Not in good health? I saw that your complexion is rosy, and you are in good condition. It seems that the golden capital is still nourishing people."

The exposed half of Gongsun Ye's face slowly turned red. He didn't know whether it was shame or anger, or both. Judging by the emperor's attitude, he knew that the matter between himself and Jiusi would not be so easy to pass.

He stood silently, the emperor was not in a hurry, snorted and lowered his eyes to continue to read the memorial, he kept silent, even if the others sympathized with Gongsunye, they didn't dare to do anything, they could only watch him stand there.

Unexpectedly, after standing for a while, Gongsun Ye suddenly lifted his robe and knelt down.

Chu Wuhen raised his brows lightly, is this ready to confess?
"His Majesty--"

Gongsun Ye said in a deep voice: "Wei Young has something to ask, please Your Majesty hold back."

Then the emperor raised his head and stared at him unhurriedly. Seeing his firm face, he snorted again inexplicably, waved his hands and said, "Go down."

Before the clock, he flicked his whisk, "Yes."

The palace people left quietly, Chu Wuhen raised his foot to go out, Xie Shuangge stared wide-eyed: "Hey - can we stay? I want to hear what he has to say."

Chu Wuhen's eyes moved slightly, and he pressed the jade pendant to calm her down.

The door of the imperial study room opened and closed, Chu Wuhen stood in the corner and said in a low voice, "I have very good hearing, so I can eavesdrop."

Xie Shuangge rubbed her hands together: "Then steal it first, and tell me when you get home... Wait, can you remember? You won't forget it when you go home, right?"

Chu Wuhen avoided the eyes of everyone, and comforted him: "Don't worry, I have a very good memory, and I can't forget it by ear. If the princess can't remember things in the future, you can tell me, and I will help the princess remember."

"It's so powerful, okay, okay." Xie Shuangge happily agreed.

After sitting for a while, she suddenly realized, "No, why should I tell you? Chu Wuhen, are you taking advantage of me again?"

Chu Wuhen couldn't hold back a low laugh.

How could someone find her cuter the more they get in touch with her?

Especially when he heard her talk about going home just now, his heart seemed to have sprouted wings, and he wanted to fly high in the sky and circle twice.

Originally, he didn't regard the Chu Mansion as his home. For a lone traveler in the world, the world is vast and no place is his home, but when Xie Shuangge said "go home", he suddenly felt that it was his home , is the home of myself and Xie Shuangge.

With a smile on his lips, he looked into the distance, and his whole body softened. He didn't realize it, but he scared the peeping people.

Chu Wuhen sensed something was wrong, turned his head quickly, and met the suspicious, worried and gossip eyes of several people headed by Zhong Qian.

Chu Wuhen: "..."

Zhong Qian: "..."

"What are you looking at?" Chu Wuhen stopped smiling.

Zhong Qian immediately waved his hands: "No, our family just thinks Master Chu looks pretty when he smiles."

After speaking, he quickly turned his head away, for fear that Chu Wuhen would say something more.

Chu Wuhen withdrew his gaze speechlessly.

Zhong Qian felt that the knife-like sight behind him disappeared, and immediately heaved a sigh of relief. The usually unsmiling person secretly hid in the corner and smiled. Isn't there something wrong?
He was lost in thought.

……

In the imperial study room, Gongsun Ye knelt on the ground with his back straight.

No matter how poor he is, he is still the prince of a country, and he still has the manners he should have.

The emperor sized him up, and spoke with some sort of satisfaction, "Tell me, what do you want from me?"

Gongsun Ye faded away from the initial confusion and bewilderment, kowtowed firmly and sincerely, and said loudly on the ground: "Your Majesty, I beg Your Majesty to marry Wei Young and the Eldest Princess."

The emperor sneered, it really came for this matter.

"Oh? You and the eldest princess? You want to marry Jiusi? Why?"

The emperor stood up and stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at him condescendingly, showing the majesty of the emperor.

This question touches on the most embarrassing point.

Gongsunye's face was reddish, "Weiyang and the Eldest Princess are in love with each other, and I beg your Majesty to make it happen. Although Weiyang has nothing now, when Weiyang returns to Zhou Kingdom in the future, the Eldest Princess will not be wronged in the slightest."

"Do you believe this yourself? If you return to Zhou with nothing, do you have everything?"

The emperor did not show any sympathy when he spoke, and other people would definitely feel resentment, but Gongsunye still said sincerely: "Weiyang has his own fiefdom in Zhou State, and then he can bring the eldest princess to settle down together."

"Zhou Guo has a long way to go. How can my beloved be married thousands of miles away? If something happens, who will support her? You have a fief but no real power. Do you think I can rest assured?"

As soon as this remark came out, Gongsunye fell silent again.
