The oath of rebirth not to be a concubine

Chapter 70
I looked him around calmly, his eyes were clear, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, he didn't look like he was joking, could this man be telling the truth...

Or, does he feel that all the women in the world want to marry him?
He put down the teacup, got up and took a few steps, looked down at me, and said, "Why, don't you want to admit it?"

I had no intention of explaining, and bowed my head in silence.

He laughed, and casually took off the carved jade pendant from his waist, and put it on the table.

I have seen this jade pendant before, it was the one that slipped from his skirt in the cave.At that time the cave was relatively dark, and the fire flickered only to feel that the jade pendant was exquisite, and did not pay much attention to the words in the jade.Look at it at this time, there is a green character in the pendant.

Green characters...

The royal family always likes to carry around them in the name of characters. Baili Tianqi's character is Haoru, and most of the jade pendants carried with them are carved with the character of Hao.

Helian Yunzhang is wearing a green pendant, could it be said that he has a green handwriting?
A picture flashed through my mind quickly...

A few months ago at the family banquet of the General’s Mansion, I won the lottery with a picture of mountains, rivers and sunrise, but because of my carelessness, I wrote a green character in the name in the dark corner of the painting.

At that time, he asked what the green characters in the painting meant, but I didn't explain much because of my guilty conscience.The Seventh Prince, Helian Yunze, seemed to understand him very well, he was lucky to have one eighth younger brother, but now that he thought about it, he had a big oolong by accident.

That day, the young ladies of the General's Mansion presented their talents and skills, and this Helian Yunzhang must also think that the hidden characters in my painting were intentional, and the purpose was to attract his attention.

No wonder he didn't ask for words that day, it turned out to be a misunderstanding.

This is embarrassing, this is quite embarrassing...

I laughed dryly and said, "Eighth Prince, do we have some misunderstanding..."

He Lian Yunzhang smiled, leaned closer to me slightly, and said, "Oh? Misunderstanding, then...meeting at the fork in the Lantern Festival, is it also a misunderstanding?

I just saw you in the alley with my front foot, and you appeared at the entrance of the alley with my back foot, if I didn't want to attract my prince's attention, wouldn't this be too much of a coincidence..."

Uh……

I was even more embarrassed this time, and I didn't know how to explain it for a while.

This is not the case...

I didn't mean that at all. I just wanted to go to the Yuandeng Oiran Competition that day. I really had no choice but to think of such a way...

This incident was so troublesome that I couldn't even explain it. I said why he always looked at me with that expression of watching the excitement. So the problem lies in this...

With a smile on the corner of Helian Yunzhao's mouth, he sat back on the chair and took a sip of tea, saying, "The other women are all singing and dancing, trying to get my prince's attention.

Although you are a bit ugly, your method is a bit stupid, and the method of approaching this prince is not at all innovative, but it seems that you are sincere.

This time, you rode a horse to save someone without thinking about your own safety, and almost ruined your appearance.This prince is not a cold person, since you like me so much, after returning to Beijing this time, I will marry you as my side concubine as you wish..."

My head felt dizzy for a while, and I felt that there were big black clouds above my head.

This misunderstanding is too deep, how can I explain it...

Seeing that I was silent, Helian Yunzhang seemed to have thought of something, and said with a snort, "Su Qingmu, don't be too greedy in life, if you want to refuse and greet, you can play it twice, my prince I have already agreed to marry you as a side concubine, but you are not grateful. Could it be that you want the position of the main concubine?"

ho...

I suddenly wanted to laugh.This Helian Yunzhang is really interesting, my face is obviously full of reluctance, he actually thinks that I want to refuse but still welcome, I really don't know what he is pretending in his mind.

However, I was worried that I couldn't refuse, which also gave me a good reason to refuse.

I lowered my eyebrows, bowed lightly, and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your love, and I am flattered. Your Highness, the Eighth Prince, is proud and proud, with a high sun in the clouds, suave and virtuous, but every woman in Xiqi, there is no one who can't help dreaming. To be able to marry His Highness the Prince."

I took a peek and found that there was no expression on his face, he just tapped on the table casually with his long fingers, and I continued, "As the eighth prince said, Qing Mu is not amazing in appearance, and he is also penniless. Although I admire the Eighth Prince, I dare not think anything wrong."

Helian Yunzhang smiled, and the corners of his mouth became even more playful.

I gritted my teeth and said, "This time, although Qingmu saved His Highness by mistake, it was only by mistake. Qingmu doesn't want His Royal Highness the Eighth Prince to take Qingmu unwillingly just for a favor."

"The eighth prince is a person who is like a high sun in the clouds. If you just marry Qingmu like this, those who know the truth will know that the prince is virtuous and generous. Those who don't know will think that Qingmu has no virtue and no talent. .”

"Every woman has a dream in her heart, and she hopes to be able to live her whole life as a woman. But looking at Qingmu now, she doesn't have any merits to be worthy of His Highness."

"but……"

I raised my head and looked at him fixedly, "Qingmu is only ten years old this year, and he is still four years away from Jiji. In four years, Qingmu will grow up, change, and become very good.

So Qingmu begged the prince to take back the fate of making Qingmu the side concubine, and it won't be long before Qingmu will change into another appearance, standing upright beside the prince. "

After finishing speaking, I lowered my brows and eyes, and suffocated twice to make myself blush a little, looking shy.

What I said was high-sounding and passionate, but when I peeked at Helian Yunzhao, I found that he was just drinking tea slowly, without much expression.

In fact, don't talk about him, I don't believe it myself.

Still, I bet he would agree.After all, people are curious, he will be curious to see what I will become, and also curious to see how I stand beside him.

Royals are proud, it is unavoidable.

I looked down and he sipped his tea lightly.After a while, he snorted, "Quan Xiqi's daughter, she wished to marry the prince immediately, but you are still bargaining."

I hurriedly saluted again, "Qingmu didn't mean to offend, I just hope that one day, the prince will marry Qingmu into the mansion because he loves Qingmu, instead of what he is like now."

"Love..." Helian Yunzhang's eyes changed a little, and the corners of his mouth became more playful.

Perhaps in his opinion, it is so troublesome for the prince to marry a side concubine, let alone love...

But it doesn't matter, anyway, I don't really want to marry him.

Before marrying the prince in her previous life, her whole family was wiped out.The most ruthless emperor, why would I go to the emperor's house again, isn't it just asking for trouble.

These words are just excuses.

I'll grow up and be fine, but by then, I'll be fully fledged.The sky is big and the earth is big, but Xiqi is not the only place where I can live. I might have gone to the desert, or to the snow-capped mountains. In short, I won’t live in the royal family.

Helian Yunmao tapped the table with his long fingers, with a trademark smile on the corner of his mouth, after a while, he finally said, "It sounds interesting, that's okay, let's just leave it at that."

After finishing speaking, he took another sip of the tea soup, got up, and walked straight away.

"Hey, Eighth Prince, your jade pendant." I saw the dragon jade pendant on the table, and quickly stopped him.

He turned his head suddenly, "Qingqing Zipei, relax my heart. I will leave this jade pendant with you. Su Qingmu, I will wait to see how you stand by my side." After speaking, he smiled and turned around Step out the door.

The late autumn wind blows in through the window, the jade pendant is a little cold, and the tentacles warm up.

Looking at the empty door, I was a little dazed.

Qingqing Zipei, leisurely my heart.He won't really believe what I say...

After a long time, I sighed, walked forward and closed the door, put the jade pendant back on the table, and lay down on the couch with my clothes closed.

It's cool in late autumn, but it helps people fall asleep. After a while, I fell asleep.

That day, I slept very soundly, and I didn't even know that there were many things that changed my appearance because of the nonsense I told before going to bed.

At that time, I was still naive, thinking that a lie told casually was not a promise.But I forgot a sentence, which means that the speaker has no intention, but the listener cares.

If there were no such false promises, there would be no bloody songs in the future, and if there were no such lies, there would be no dead bones piled up in the killing field in the future.

When a promise is made, wind and water rise, and when a promise is extinguished, the vicissitudes of life will change.

It was only after many years that I realized that telling such a lie with an infatuated person was the worst decision I ever made in my life.

The emperor's family not only produced fickle lovers, but also infatuated ones.

There is love and infatuation in the world, this hatred has nothing to do with Feng Yuyue...

Of course, many things are done without knowing that they are wrong, and all the so-called things are for later.

In the morning of the next day, I woke up slowly, and this sleep relieved my exhaustion.

The mother-in-law had long been guarding the door, and when she heard the voice, she hurried in to serve her. After I cleansed my face, I remembered the ointment that Helian Yunzhao gave me yesterday, so I quickly took it out.

Sitting in front of the mirror, he brushed his hair and dabbed the ointment on his forehead, and suddenly felt a coolness penetrated from the skin into the bun, and the pain seemed to have subsided a little.

"Girl, this old servant will comb your hair for you." The woman stood behind her with a comb.

Looking at the emaciated face and the hideous wound in the mirror, I sighed, saw a pair of small scissors in the dressing box, took it, pulled the long hair on the forehead, cut it short to the eyebrow, and finally covered it. Dao hurt.

The mother-in-law was also dexterous, and divided the hair at the back of my head into two halves, lightly padded some on the left and right, made a flower bud, and found two silver-bottomed glass butterfly clips, and fastened them to the edge of the flower bud, matching my short hair at the forehead , and the brocade red narrow-sleeved fairy dress on her body, it really looks a lot more playful.

After having breakfast in the room, I heard a noise downstairs. I pushed the window open and saw hundreds of imperial forest soldiers standing under the inn. In the middle, a middle-aged man wearing simple armor and hanging a saber was bowing, and said to him, "Your Majesty learned that the prince is safe, and specially sent Lu Fei to take the prince back to Beijing."

With a smile on Helian Yunzhao's face, he said softly, "In that case, Commander Lu Da, let's go back to Shengjing first."
