Refusing to marry the king of broken sleeves

Chapter 099: Go pick her up personally "fourth brother."

Huangfu Yi, who had just walked out of the hall, heard a shout from behind, stopped involuntarily, turned around to look, and saw Huangfu Yu walking towards him quickly.

When Huangfu Yu walked in front of him, Huangfu Yi walked out with him, and said while walking, "Do you have something to say to me?"

Huangfu Yu frowned slightly with his thick black sword eyebrows, and on his resolute face, there was a worried expression, he leaned slightly towards Huangfu Yi, and said in a low voice: "Fourth brother, didn't fourth sister-in-law run away from home and go back to her mother's house?"

The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, Huangfu Yi swallowed speechlessly, and couldn't help but slander in his heart, why did everyone know that Ling Ruoyao ran away from home and returned to her mother's house?

And in his memory, he automatically ignored the words he said to Ling Ruoyao when he took Ling Ruoyao to the roof that day.

He only knew that Ling Ruoyao fell from the roof and hurt her leg, but he consciously blamed it on her own carelessness, completely forgetting that it was he who caused her to fall from the roof.

There was always a calm expression on the handsome and impeccable face, Huangfu Yi hooked the corners of his lips, and raised a charming smile: "She just returned to her mother's house temporarily, she didn't run away from home."

"Is there a difference?" Huangfu Yu said aloud without thinking too much, "Anyway, she just went back to the Prime Minister's Mansion and lived in the Prime Minister's Mansion for such a long time." Dao became the emperor.

The twitching of the corner of his mouth could no longer express his mood at this moment, Huangfu Yi only felt that the corners of his eyes twitched twice.The smile on the corner of his mouth also seemed a little stiff.

"What exactly do you want to say?" Huangfu Yi frowned slightly, and said in a low voice.

Seeing that he was a little displeased, Huangfu Yu realized that he had talked too much, laughed a few times, and quickly went straight to the point and said: "Father Huang said that the fourth sister-in-law must attend the hunting in the paddock, and the fourth brother plans to personally Are you going to take her back home?"

Let him go to the Prime Minister's Mansion in person and bring her back, he can't hold back his face.If he really came to pick her up in person this time, he was sure that this woman Ling Ruoyao would put her nose on her face and ride directly on his head.

Without thinking too much, he said decisively, "No."

Slightly stunned for a moment, Huangfu Yu didn't expect him to answer so simply, and he didn't know how to continue the conversation.

"However, the father has already ordered that the fourth sister-in-law must be present." Huangfu Yu still said worriedly.

"All in all, I won't pick her up." Huangfu Yi's attitude was also very firm, there was no room for negotiation.

Ling Ruoyao's participation in hunting in the paddock doesn't seem to have much connection with him picking her up, right?Even if she doesn't return to the palace, she can still attend the hunting in the paddock.

Thinking of this, he suddenly had an idea, and turned his head to search around, until he saw that slightly aged figure, but still walking steadily, he stopped.

Without continuing to talk to Huangfu Yu, he walked straight towards Ling Yan who was not far away.Huangfu Yu was taken aback for a moment, not understanding what he was going to do, and hurriedly followed.

"Prime Minister, please stop." Huangfu Yi shouted as he walked quickly towards Ling Yan.

Originally full of melancholy, Ling Yan walked forward with his head buried. When he heard a shout from behind, he couldn't help being stunned for a moment. After a while, he turned around and looked at Huangfu Yi who was walking towards him.

When Huangfu Yi and Huangfu Yu walked in front of him, Ling Yan cupped his hands, lowered his head and said: "The old minister has seen the fourth prince and the sixth prince."

With a slight wave of his hand, Huangfu Yi raised his brows: "Your Excellency, you don't need to be too polite. This king has something on mind, and I want to bother you, Your Excellency."

There was a look of doubt on the old but still majestic face, Ling Yan slightly raised his head to look at him, and then said: "Fourth Prince, please speak."

Raising the corner of his mouth, Huangfu Yi then told Ling Yan what was in his heart.

After listening to his words, Ling Yan still had a puzzled look on his face and seemed to hesitate, but in the end he said respectfully: "Fourth Prince, please rest assured, the old minister will definitely do his best."

"In that case, I would like to thank you, Prime Minister."

After Ling Yan left, Huangfu Yu withdrew his gaze from Ling Yan, turned his head to look at Huangfu Yi beside him, and asked with some concern, "Fourth brother, is this okay?"

"Why not?" Huangfu Yi raised his handsome brows, and said nonchalantly, "As long as the results are the same, it's fine, isn't it?"

Seeing that Huangfu Yu was still frowning, looking worried, Huangfu Yi patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Why are you more worried than me? Well, don't worry. Let's go."

Saying that, he took the lead along the stone steps and walked down the stone steps.

Sighing helplessly, Huangfu Yu couldn't help shaking his head, but in the end he didn't speak any more, and followed Huangfu Yi's pace.

***

In the prime minister's mansion.

After lying on the bed for several days, Ling Ruoyao felt that her whole body was about to swell. If she didn't exercise her muscles and bones again, she might not even be able to walk.

Fortunately, although the medicine prescribed by the doctor was a bit unpleasant, the effect was excellent, and she was able to get out of bed and move around.It's just that you can't exercise too much, and your legs can't be hurt again, otherwise, it may be completely abolished.

After she was able to get out of bed and walk around, she couldn't wait to greet Caizhi, let her help her, and went out for a walk.

With Caizhi's support, she walked out of her yard and walked towards the front yard along the winding bluestone path.

She hasn't been out of the house for several days, walking in the garden at this moment, everything around her is so fresh to her, like a new world.

All the way to the front yard, she just walked through the stone arch when she saw Ling Qinglian walking towards her.It's just that Ling Qinglian didn't see her, she kept her head lowered and strode forward, as if she was thinking about something.

Slightly frowning her fine eyebrows, Ling Ruoyao hesitated for a moment, and stopped him: "Brother, are you out?".

Ling Qinglian, who had been walking with her head down, came back to her senses and looked up at her. The pensive expression on her handsome face had long since disappeared, replaced by her usual soft smile.

Quickly coming to her, he said worriedly, "Why did you come out? Didn't the doctor tell you to lie on the bed?"

Although she knew that he was caring about herself, Ling Ruoyao couldn't help curling her lips, and complained: "I've been lying on the bed for several days, if I don't get out of bed and walk around, my legs will really be useless."

Immediately, she couldn't help laughing, Ling Qinglian didn't criticize her anymore, but took her hand from Caizhi's, and supported her to walk forward.

"Where are you going?"

Looking at her feet, Ling Ruoyao replied casually: "It's just a casual walk. It's you, where did you go just now?"

Always with a calm and easy-going appearance, Ling Qinglian smiled lightly, and said aloud: "I just went out for a while, nothing happened."

Since he said it was all right, she didn't ask any more questions.The two walked forward in silence until Ling Qinglian told her to sit down and rest for a while when they reached the lobby in the front yard.

Sitting on a chair in the hall, Ling Ruoyao turned her head to look at the magnificent and majestic lacquered door, but suddenly saw a familiar figure walking in from outside.

"Father is back." Said to Ling Qinglian who was next to her, Ling Ruoyao tried to stand up, but her leg trembled and almost fell back on the chair, not wanting to hurt it.

In order not to worry others, she resisted the sudden pain in her leg, walked to the entrance of the hall, and together with Ling Qinglian, welcomed Ling Yan in.

Walking into the hall, Ling Yan went straight to the top seat and sat down, sighed softly, and then looked up at the two standing aside.

After waving his hands, he said in a low voice, "Sit down, both of you, I have something to say for my father."

Seeing his serious expression, Ling Ruoyao and Ling Qinglian couldn't help becoming serious, they looked at each other with blank expressions on their faces.

After the two sat down, Ling Yan said again: "In two days, it will be the day of hunting in the paddock. This morning, the emperor personally said that the two of you must also participate in this paddock." hunting."

What he said made the two of them even more puzzled, and the blankness on their faces became more intense.

Glancing at Ling Qinglian, Ling Ruoyao asked in disbelief: "My eldest brother and I must also participate? Why? Isn't paddock hunting a royal affair?"

Although she still doesn't fully understand the things in this strange time and space, she has heard from Caizhi that every hunting in the paddock is carried out by the emperor with several princes.

When talking about this matter, Cai Zhi had a look of fascination on her face, talking about which prince's archery skills are so good, and which prince's riding skills are so superb.

And when Caizhi told her about it, she asked her very disapprovingly: "Have you seen it with your own eyes?"

As a result, it is conceivable that the girl Caizhi had never seen it with her own eyes, and it was just a rumor.

But one thing is absolutely true, paddock hunting is a matter of the royal family, and has nothing to do with the subjects and common people.

But this time hunting in the paddock, not only Ling Qinglian wanted to participate, but even a girl like her also wanted to participate.It's just too weird.

As if anticipating their reaction, Ling Yan briefly told them what happened this morning.

After listening to Ling Yan's narration, Ling Ruoyao gritted her teeth immediately, and a dissatisfaction flashed in her clear eyes.

The third prince, Huangfuxi, is really persistent.If he failed to avenge him, he vowed not to give up?He actually proposed to mention her, so that she must participate.

And still participate as the fourth princess.

Doesn't this mean that she will attend the hunting in the paddock with that perverted man with broken sleeves, Huangfu Yi?

No, she didn't believe it was true.

"Ruoyao, the emperor called you to participate in this hunting in the paddock. You should go back to the Fourth Prince's Mansion earlier and prepare together with the prince."

Ling Ruoyao, who was still in self-hypnosis, completely woke up after hearing Ling Yan's words.

Want her to take the initiative to go back to the Fourth Prince's Mansion?Is it possible?

If she took the initiative to go back to the Fourth Prince's Mansion this time, she would definitely be looked down upon by that man Huangfu Yi and oppressed by him.

She finally made up her mind to fight him to the end, but she couldn't compromise and surrender so easily.

Suppressing the strong dissatisfaction in her heart, she twitched the corners of her mouth, raised an embarrassing smile, and said with a smile: "Father, can I not go? Look, my leg injury hasn't healed yet. It’s just that I can barely get out of bed and walk around, but the doctor said, before I recover, I should not walk more, let alone strenuous activities, if something happens, my leg will be useless.”

She is now an injured and sick patient, so she should be treated specially in special circumstances.

But who knows, Ling Yan's attitude is also very firm, as if determined to drive her back to the Fourth Prince's Mansion.

He looked at her solemnly with a slightly aged face, and said without refutation: "This is the emperor's will, do you want to resist the order?"

Against the decree?

How can she be regarded as resisting the decree?It is said that reason is nothing more than human feelings, besides, the emperor did not order anyone to send an imperial decree to the mansion, requiring her to participate, everything can be discussed.

"Father, don't scare your daughter." After waving his hand, Ling Ruoyao said with a sneer, "How can this be regarded as resisting the decree? The emperor is also a reasonable person. If you tell the emperor about your daughter's situation truthfully, the emperor will definitely agree. Father, You say yes?"

"You are not joking, how can the emperor go back on what he says?" Ling Yan interrupted her sharply, "This time, you must attend the hunting in the paddock, and you must also go back to the Fourth Prince's Mansion to attend with the prince!"

When he first came to the court, the fourth prince asked him to persuade Ling Ruoyao to go back to the fourth prince's mansion. He also agreed to the fourth prince, how could he not fulfill his promise?

Seeing that his attitude was very firm and he had no sympathy to speak of, Ling Ruoyao's stubborn temper also came up: "I won't go back! Father, don't try to persuade me anymore! If you want me to go hunting in the paddock, Let that fellow Huangfu Yi come and pick me up personally!"

Hmph, wouldn't she know Huangfu Yi's plans for that perverted man with broken sleeves?

It had been several days since she returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, only on the first day when she came back, her father strongly urged her to go back to the Fourth Prince's Mansion, but after being fooled by her, she never mentioned it again.

But at this moment, he mentioned this matter again, and his attitude was so serious, without any room for turning around, it was really unusual.

Moreover, she had to participate in this paddock hunt, and she still attended as the fourth princess.Then, I want to attend with that guy Huangfu Yi.

Then, she must go back to the Fourth Prince's Mansion. She can't attend with Ling Yan and Ling Qinglian, and then meet Huangfu Yi after arriving at the paddock, right?

It's fine if other people see it, but if the emperor finds out, he will definitely be unhappy.

After all, the marriage between her and Huangfu Yi was bestowed by the emperor himself.

Come to think of it, Huangfu Yi is also aware of this.And he would definitely not come to the door in person to pick her up.In this way, Ling Yan had no choice but to put pressure on her, so that she had to go back to the Fourth Prince's Mansion.

It's a pity that Huangfu Yi's perverted man with broken sleeves made a mistake in his wishful thinking, she won't go back easily, and let him have an excuse to oppress her.

And what she said not only angered Ling Yan, even Ling Qinglian was stunned and looked at her in surprise.

"It's just nonsense!" Ling Yan flicked his sleeves and snapped, "You are married to the fourth prince. As the fourth princess, how can you be so ignorant? You are still playing childish temper! How did your father teach you when you were young? your?"

"I'm a fool, can a fool know the seriousness?" Ling Ruoyao curled her lips disapprovingly as she muttered in a low voice.

Although she is not clear about the past, it has been a long time since she came to this time and space, and she is still clear about some things.

This Ling Ruoyao, in the eyes of others, has been a fool since she was a child.

A fool can tell right from wrong?Can you tell the priorities?

Undoubtedly, her muttering fell into Ling Yan's ears, making him even more furious and furious.

Since she fell off the swing last time and woke up, how is she still like the stupid Ling Ruoyao before?Now she actually has the nerve to use that she is a fool as a shield.

Seeing that Ling Yan's anger was getting stronger and stronger, and it was about to burst out in the next second, and burn the entire hall to death, Ling Ruoyao swallowed quietly, thinking to himself, if a good guy doesn't suffer from immediate losses, it would be nice if he could last a day One day, the paddock hunt was two days away anyway.

Thinking of this, she suddenly stood up and said firmly: "Father doesn't need to persuade me anymore, if the Fourth Prince hadn't come to pick me up in person, I would not go back to the Fourth Prince's Mansion."

After finishing speaking, she didn't even dare to look at Ling Yan, she turned around and walked out of the hall.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he turned around, the injured leg trembled again, and the whole person fell to the ground without warning, and fell to the ground all at once.

Both Ling Yan and Ling Qinglian were frightened, Ling Qinglian stood up hurriedly, stepped forward to help her up, and asked worriedly: "Ruoyao, are you alright?"

With Ling Qinglian's support, she barely stood up, but her leg still hurt a little, but it wasn't as severe as before.

After waving her hands, she frowned and said, "It's okay, I can't get out of bed and walk around. It's because I'm too bored in bed that I insist on getting out of bed and around."

And when she said this, she glanced at Ling Yan out of the corner of her eye, and saw that his expression was very solemn, and there was a trace of unconcealable worry in his eyes.

She knew that he was hesitating, hesitating to let her participate in this paddock hunting.

Without stopping any longer, she greeted Caizhi and asked her to support her, then left the hall and walked to her own yard in the backyard.

After Ling Ruoyao left, Ling Qinglian turned around to look at Ling Yan, hesitated for a while and said: "Father, you have seen Ruoyao's injury, it is really not suitable for you to move around. Can you ask the emperor for mercy so that Ruoyao won't be allowed to leave?" Yao attended this paddock hunt?"

"The emperor never changes his words. If he has said something, there will be no room for maneuver. I also know that Ruoyao's injury is not suitable for traveling, but she has to attend."

Yingting's sword eyebrows were tightly knit into a ball, Ling Qinglian pursed her thin lips tightly, but she didn't say another word.

Since Ling Yan has nothing to do, there is nothing he can do. He can only take care of Ling Ruoyao when he is hunting in the paddock.

Sighing for a long time, Ling Yan called out a servant, and ordered: "You go to the Fourth Prince's Mansion."

***

Inside the Four Princes' Mansion.

As soon as Huangfu Yi returned to the mansion, he went straight back to his own yard, his sword eyebrows were always knit into a ball, looking very serious and dignified, wherever he passed by, the servants and servant girls around him did not dare to make any movement, for fear of offending the master The son is not happy, and he is unlucky.

After returning to the courtyard, Ye Yuan immediately greeted him: "The prince is back."

However, Huangfu Yi ignored him, walked straight into the hall, and sat on the top chair.

Seeing his ugly face, Ye Yuan stepped forward and asked cautiously, "My lord, what happened?"

"Nothing." With two simple words, Ye Yuan was dismissed.

I don't know if Ling Yan can successfully persuade Ling Ruoyao to come back obediently.

The waiting time always passed slowly like a snail. After sitting in the room for more than an hour, no one came to send a message, or saw the woman Ling Ruoyao come back.

He was getting impatient with the wait.

And Ye Yuan, who had been by his side all the time, had refilled four cups of tea for him during this hour.

Just when Huangfu Yi was about to run away from waiting, two servants walked in from the yard.

The two young servants came to him respectfully, bowed down and lowered their heads one after another, with an air of respect.

One of the servants said: "My lord, the Prime Minister's Mansion sent someone here, saying that they have something to tell the lord."

Finally came the news.

Huangfu Yi nodded slightly, waved his hand to let the boy back down, and then asked the servant from the Prime Minister's Mansion: "Master Prime Minister asked you to bring a message to this king?"

Bowing his head, the servant replied respectfully: "Go back to the lord, the prime minister said that the second lady is really not suitable for walking because of her leg injury, and I am afraid that she will not be able to participate in the hunting in the paddock this time. And the second lady said, if If you want her to come back to the Fourth Prince's Mansion, the prince has to come to pick her up in person."

"Wangfei really said that?" In a low voice, Huangfu Yi said word by word, his tone was so cold that people could freeze into ice.

The servant shivered, and replied tremblingly: "I dare not lie to the lord, the second young lady has indeed said this."

Although the prime minister only told him to tell the prince that the second lady was injured and was not fit to travel.But the second lady did say that if she wanted to return to the palace, the prince had to come to apologize in person.He thought, it is still necessary to let the prince know.

The thin lips with beautiful lines raised an elegant arc upwards, but the smile was so cold and frightening that it made people shudder.

Huangfu Yi squinted his deep and long phoenix eyes slightly, his whole body exuded a cold and sharp aura, and his big hand on the tea table also tightened into a fist in an instant.

With his thin lips slightly parted, he said in a cold voice, "Okay, very good, very good!"

This woman, Ling Ruoyao, is not paying attention to him more and more, how dare she be so arrogant and ask him to pick her up in person?

Didn't she threaten that she would never step into the Fourth Prince's Mansion again?Don't you still want to ask him for a divorce letter?

Why do you want to come back now?

Or, did she expect that he would not pick her up in person, so she said that on purpose?

Oh, this woman is really smart!
