Chapter 126 I’m married
Cui Xu's words were accompanied by the white smoke rising from the teapot. His eyes were a little hot, but he was afraid that Cui Ying would resist, so he could only look away after finishing speaking.
"Brother will always be my brother."
Cui Ying raised her hand to hold the handle of the teapot with a clean towel, poured the tea into the teacup in front of Cui Xu, and smiled back at him.
But Cui Xu understood what this sentence meant.
He was just a brother, and he could only be a brother. Even if she did not resist his approach, that was all.
He suddenly felt a little pain in his heart, and the stinging feeling was like being dug out by life. Her attitude remained the same, as she had said from the beginning.
It was because he refused to accept it, because he thought that there was even a slight possibility of recalling it.
Thinking of this, Cui Xu reached out and picked up the tea cup and took a sip. The tea was very hot, but he couldn't feel it.
"Okay, I'm in Hanzhou. If you need anything, come find me."
"The Shen family in Hanzhou, I am married to the eldest lady of the Shen family."
Cui Xu looked at Cui Ying and said this, since it is impossible, then he will only be her brother from now on.
"Brother is married? Congratulations. If there is a chance, you must let me meet my sister-in-law."
Cui Ying was surprised for a moment. She didn't expect Cui Xu to be married, but when she heard what he said, she felt happy for him from the bottom of her heart.
Cui Xu said this to make her no longer have any worries. After hearing her congratulations, he nodded and told what happened between him and Shen Huajiao. He said that Shen Huajiao saved him, and he should repay him with his life for saving his life.
The two were in love, and the Shen family could provide him with protection, so they got married.
He said a lot, and it seemed that he just wanted to reassure Cui Ying. As for whether these words were true or false, Cui Ying didn't know.
When he finally sent Cui Xu away, he said that he would stay in Fengzhou for a while and would introduce Shen Huajiao to her tomorrow. Cui Ying was very happy and made an appointment with him for tomorrow.
When Cui Xu returned to the inn, he wanted to tell Shen Huajiao about this, but he heard from the innkeeper that the eldest lady had gone back and that the matter in Fengzhou would be left to him.
"Is this what the eldest lady left behind?"
Cui Xu looked at the shopkeeper and asked. The shopkeeper thought for a moment and continued: "The eldest lady also said that there is nothing urgent at home. If my uncle finishes the work, he can stay in Fengzhou for a while."
It was obviously a normal thing to say, but Cui Xu seemed to hear something different from it.
He nodded, turned around and went upstairs.

In the Imperial Palace in Beijing, Xue Jingxian was sitting on a chair in Shoukang Palace, restless. When she heard the sound of the bead curtain being moved, she immediately stood up and walked over to support Concubine Xue.
"Ms. Toffee."
Concubine Xue put her hand on Xue Jingxian's and said with a bit of loving reproach: "Why can't you sit still?"
Of course she knew why Xue Jingxian came. She was the prince's person now. She originally planned to wait for the prince to come back and let the two of them salute, but this happened and it was delayed again.
"My dearest concubine, everyone in the court is saying that the prince will be deposed, so what should I do?"
Xue Jingxian actually hoped in her heart that Chu Yan would be deposed so that she would not have to marry him, but she also knew that this was impossible because Concubine Xue would not allow such a thing to happen.
What's more, she said that no matter what happened, Emperor Qi would never depose the prince.
Because Chu Yan is the only son of Queen Zhuang Hui, and Queen Zhuang Hui is Emperor Qi's favorite woman in his life, he will not do anything to Chu Yan.
"Look at you, you're impatient again."
Concubine Xue pulled Xue Jingxian to sit down together and patted her hand: "Prince Rui and Prince Liang will never have the chance to sit in that position, don't look at how fiercely they compete."
"If Your Majesty has plans to depose the crown prince, can you still wait until Chu Yan comes back from Dongyi Kingdom?"
"Your Majesty is just a stepping stone for Chu Yan. The Ai family will not harm you. You can just be your concubine. When he ascends the throne in the future, the Ai family will definitely find a way to let you sit on the throne of the queen. "Xue Jingxian listened to Concubine Xue's words and suddenly realized that no matter what happens to Chu Yan, Your Majesty will not abolish him. He will always sit in this position and become the king of Dashuo.
And Concubine Xue doesn't care what she does. What she wants is for the Xue family's century-old glory to continue. The Xue family must also be the future queen and the future queen mother.
She lowered her eyes and said nothing, and after a long while she said thank you to the Dowager Empress for her advice.
Concubine Xue clapped her hand with satisfaction. After leaving Shoukang Palace, Xue Jingxian stretched out her hand and looked at the traces of pinching in the palm of her hand, and her eyes became more ruthless.
"Qiuyue, go prepare some food, let's go to the East Palace."
No one is willing to help her, even her parents regard her as a ladder to gain glory and wealth. She must do something to find a way forward for herself.
She and Chu Yan were already like grasshoppers tied to the same boat, and now she had to hold on to him tightly to make her life easier in the future.
At this time in the East Palace, the wooden sculpture in Chu Yan's hand had been completed. He was decorating the eyes of the figure, but after thinking for a long time, he didn't know how to start.
Cui Ying's eyes were his favorite, they were smart and beautiful, like a pair of gems.
Such gentle eyebrows and eyes seemed to make you willing to believe every word she said just by looking at you, and because of this, he was deceived by her many times.
"Your Highness, Dongyue and Amber have left, and my subordinates have sent Yunzhou to follow."
Cheng Chong leaned outside the door and said this.
Chu Yan hummed, and then said: "They will not go to Cui Ying. Give Cui Ying an opportunity to let Cui Ying know that they have left."
She has always cared about these people the most, so in order not to inconvenience them, she might not tell them where she is going. Since she can't find them, let her take the initiative to find them.
Cheng Chong nodded in agreement: "King Rui and Prince Liang sent people to Yunzhou. His Majesty asked them to find evidence to exonerate His Highness."
The two of them shot themselves in the foot. They originally thought they could plot against His Highness, but they didn't expect His Majesty didn't care at all.
"Has there been any progress on the matter with the Brahma flower?"
Chu Yan put the wooden figure without eyes on the table, and his fingertips traced the figure's cheek, and he smiled: "It's so ugly."
These loving words seemed to be spoken to Cui Ying.
Cheng Chong replied: "Not yet. Princess Cersei's sphere of influence is very large. It will be difficult for our people to infiltrate. However, Dongyi wants to discuss trade with Dashuo and will come to Dashuo in a while."
Only when Cersei leaves Dongyi can he take action.
"I know, keep checking."
He must find out the relationship between his mother's death and Boluohua, as well as the man behind the scenes, and when he started planning it.
After Chu Yan finished speaking, Xue Jingxian's voice came from the door. She said in a pleading tone: "I will give His Highness some food."
What he got was naturally the guard's rejection.
A flash of disgust flashed in his eyes, and he slid the wheelchair into the door. Cheng Chong stepped forward and closed the door to block out the sound outside. His footsteps landed lightly on the eaves, and then a stone hit Xue Jingxian's leg.
She staggered a few steps, and the food box fell to the ground, spilling the contents.
"Miss Xue, please come back."
The guard glanced at the black shadow on the roof calmly, then looked away and said this.
Xue Jingxian rubbed her legs and looked at the food there with some pity.
It's really unlucky, I don't know where the stones came from.
