Snowy Chang'an Road

Chapter 2 Your Majesty Grants Marriage
  This is the fifteenth day since Pei Ying traveled to Wei Dynasty. With her super adaptability, she has integrated into every aspect here.

The only thing that made her uncomfortable was getting up early.

She can have poor food, clothing, and expenses, but she cannot sleep well.

At three o'clock in the morning, the maid Yunrou opened the door in a panic and threw herself beside Pei Ying's bed.

"Girl, wake up quickly, Lady Sheng is coming this way."

Pei Ying rubbed her sleepy eyes and asked, "What is she doing here so early in the morning?"

"My maid doesn't know either. I just saw that she was so angry. Could it be because of what happened last night?"

Pei Ying sat up suddenly, grabbed Yunrou's arm and asked, "Have you buried the rabbit's bones?"

Yunrou nodded quickly.

"That's good. She'll be here soon, just don't show any cowardice."

"Girl, that little rabbit is very cute. Wouldn't it be too cruel for us to eat it?"

"I'm just asking you, is it delicious?"

"good to eat."

"Since it's delicious, other things don't matter. You have to think about it this way. If the rabbit were a human and you were a rabbit, would it let you go?"

"will not."

"now it's right."

Before the maid could leave the room, Pei Sheng and his party barged in.

Pei Ying is changing clothes at the moment.

"Didn't you see that I'm changing? Go out and wait for me."

By some mistake, Pei Sheng listened to her words and walked out the door obediently. As soon as she walked out, she realized, why should I listen to her?

Pei Ying and Pei Sheng sat side by side on the couch.

It's winter, but there is no charcoal fire in Pei Ying's room, let alone the supply of hot water. At the moment, Yunrou is lighting a fire outside to boil water, and it will take some time to drink hot tea.

Mrs. Cao was afraid that her daughter would be cold, so she had provided charcoal fire in Pei Sheng's room early. Especially after her majesty granted marriage last month, she took care of the future princess even more meticulously and meticulously.

At this moment, Pei Sheng was shivering from the cold, but she still maintained the demeanor of a noble lady.

"Hand over Yue'er."

"Who is Yue'er?"

"You ask knowingly, my little rabbit."

"never seen it."

"My servant said I saw you sneaking into the yard last night carrying something. It must be my little rabbit."

"."

Seeing her silence, Pei Sheng thought she was guilty, so he became more aggressive.

"Hand it over and I'll hit you twenty times at most."

Pei Ying thought there was something wrong with her ears and looked at her in disbelief.

"What? Are you scared? If you are, hand over Yue'er quickly."

"I'm really curious, with your IQ, how can you be qualified for the position of Crown Princess?"

Although Pei Sheng didn't understand what he said, he could tell that it wasn't a good thing.

"I am His Majesty's crown prince."

"You've said it many times."

"My parents love me very much, but they don't love you."

"If they love me, what do they have to do with you?"

Pei Sheng was furious and wanted to argue with her, but was stopped by Pei Ying. She really didn't have the leisure to accompany this young lady to talk nonsense here, so she stood up and prepared to leave. Unexpectedly, before she took two steps, Pei Sheng pinched her wrist.

With a sudden shake of her hand, Pei Sheng lost her center of gravity and fell backwards to the ground. Her screams instantly filled the room.

Pei Ying ignored it, returned to the inner room, and slept on the bed undressed.

An hour later, Pei Ying, who was still in her dream, was shaken awake again. Yunrou's eyes signaled her to look out the door.

The familiar figure is Shen Ce, his father's attendant.

"Girl, the palace has announced the decree. The head of the family invites you to come and listen to the decree."

Pei Ying was confused, but she did as she was told.

The decree was announced in the palace, what does it have to do with me, Pei Ying?
  The middle door of Pei's mansion was wide open, the internal officials were standing in the corridor, and everyone in the Pei family was kneeling in front of the steps.

Watching the battle, Pei Ying knelt down behind the crowd, staying in the last row without blinking.

The censor who made the imperial edict:

My prince, Wei Shao, King of Peiping, is of noble character, honorable in filial piety, brave and good at fighting, and has reached the weakest level. Today, there is Pei Ying, the daughter of Prime Minister Pei Kai, who is about the age of hairpins. She is dignified in appearance, beautiful and intelligent. Therefore, I have decreed that she will be Wei Shao's wife and we will marry on an auspicious day.

Admire this!

Pei Kai was grateful for the holy grace, took the imperial edict with both hands, handed the red envelope to the internal official who came to announce the edict, and sent the person outside the door.

"Dong Pei Guo."

"Don't dare."

"The imperial decree for you to be granted the title of Duke will arrive tomorrow. In less than a month, the Pei Mansion has welcomed the imperial decree three times. This honor is unique in the entire Wei Dynasty."

Facing the emperor's offer of marriage, Pei Ying acted very calmly. After all, she had seen various political marriages in costume dramas since she was a child. The only difference was that now the protagonist was herself.

It doesn't matter, as long as she is still single in the era she traveled to.

Seeing the girl's calmness, Yunrou couldn't calm down anymore.

"Girl, Your Majesty granted me a marriage, why didn't you respond at all?"

"How should I react?"

"Don't you even want to know what the King of Peking looks like? What's his temperament? What kind of person is he?"

Pei Ying shook her head. Her behavior made Yunrou very puzzled. Last month, His Majesty gave Sheng a marriage, and she was so happy. According to the maid, she was so happy that she couldn't even sleep at night.

Although the King of Peiping is not as noble as the prince, he is still a prince, and he is a young general who killed rebels. What girl would not be tempted by such a young and promising husband with a promising future?

"My mother should be happy."

Pei Ying lost her mother three months after she was born. Three months later, her father married another. One year later, Pei Sheng was born. Pei Sheng’s mother, Cao Quan, was ruthless and good at fighting in the house. Her mind was full of despicable tricks to tease people. .

As long as she can remember, she often eats porridge, wears only single clothes to cover her body, and her food and clothing expenses are only better than those of the servants in the mansion. If she hadn't come here for half a month and never touched meat, how could she roast a rabbit to satisfy her cravings? ?
  Not to mention her father, if you have a stepmother, you have a stepfather. She doesn't believe what Cao has done over the years. Pei Kai didn't know. For the sake of the peace of the family, he turned a blind eye and allowed his stepfather to do anything. A man who treats his own daughter harshly is worthy of being called a father.

Seeing Yun Rou's disappointed expression, Pei Ying said with a gentle smile: "Actually, I'm quite happy. If I become the Princess of Peking, we won't have to go hungry anymore. Thinking about it this way, it is indeed a happy event."

Yunrou's originally happy face fell instantly, and then she lowered her head and sobbed as if she remembered something sad.

"Silly boy, why are you crying?"

"Girl, we are finally going to have a happy ending."

Pei Ying said nothing. Before she met Wei Shao, or had any interaction with him, she would never think that marrying him would be a blessing in disguise.

What if he is a domestic violence man? What if he is a cold war maniac? What if he was paranoid?

It is wisest not to place your hopes on feelings.

What she has to think about now is how she can establish a relationship of common interest with Wei Shao.

In this world, there are no eternal enemies and friends, only eternal interests!

A relationship based on interests is much stronger than one based on feelings.

The important thing is that it doesn't hurt.
