Slave to Queen: One Night Bride

Chapter 60
She shook her head: "Pengju, I don't need it, you put it away. Hehe, now, all your things should be given to the princess, you have to support her..."

Yue Pengju saw her withdrawing her hand, her eyes were astringent, as if someone was stirring her heart with a knife, and her voice was dry: "Sister, I will take care of you for the rest of my life..."

"Pengju, I really don't need this gold, you can take it home, the princess is coming home to take care of your house, there are a lot of things that need to be bought, and the family's expenses are high..."

Now that he has a family, his duty from now on is to support his family, wife and children!
My sister with a "different surname" shouldn't rely on my younger brother to make a living.

Yue Pengju almost burst into tears, grabbed her hand, and was extremely stubborn: "Sister, you must hold it."

She was more stubborn than him: "Pengju, I really don't need it."

She stood up and handed the hairpin to him: "Pengju, sister really has nothing else to offer, this hairpin..."

Yue Pengju was dumb, took a step back, put the hairpin and the gold on the table, turned around and left: "Sister, this is what I gave you, what has it got to do with other people? I'm leaving, you have to take care..."

"Peng Ju!"

He turned around: "sister, don't worry about anything, just wait for me to come back! I will take care of everything. "

Hua Rong was speechless, watching him stride out.

It was late at night, Hua Rong lay on the desk and read a book for a while, feeling sleepy, just about to rest, when someone knocked on the door.

She went to open the door, only to see Wanwan rushing in quickly, followed by Mrs. Li.

"Sister Hua, didn't Brother Yue explain the sunrise expedition? Why did he leave tonight? He left in such a hurry and didn't tell me..."

Mrs. Li also babbled: "Young master, I don't know when I will be back. How can I leave without saying hello to my lady?"

Hua Rong said indifferently: "He received an urgent order. After discussing with Lord Zong, the Ninth Prince decided to let him set off early so that he could gather the Qin King's army from all over the place and catch the enemy by surprise..."

"Ah? Sister, you know he left early? But why did he tell you instead of me? "

Mrs. Li also complained: "That's right, I didn't even say a word about my wife... Young Master is really young and ignorant, so I'm not afraid that my lady will miss you..."

Hua Rong heard that she was "Madam" and "Uncle" at the same time, she was displeased, but also sad, as if a thing already had an owner, but she herself became a third person who coveted it. Just answer.

Wanwan sat at the table by herself, poured a cup of tea and drank it, and then looked around. This was the first time she came to Hua Rong's room, and she was too hasty to take a closer look last night. It's no worse than living by yourself.

As a princess, the magistrate has special arrangements; but what about Hua Rong?Her room was arranged by Brother Nine himself, she was a little strange, how could Brother Nine arrange such a good room for her?
Soon, her eyes fell on the bag of gold and the hairpin on the table, and she asked curiously, "Sister Hua, what is this?"

Hua Rong was startled, subconsciously took the hairpin in his hand and removed it carelessly, only pushed the gold over, Li Shi laughed: "Hey, is this a gift from my aunt?"

Hua Rong said lightly: "Well, take it."

"Hey, what's the point of this? It's my uncle's..."

"Pengju was meant to be given to you, but he left in a hurry and was too late, so he entrusted me to give it to the princess."

Wan Wan has no concept of money since she was born, and she has no interest in this pile of gold: "No, no, no."

After all, Mrs. Li is someone who came here, and escaped penniless, only relying on the mansion bestowed by the Ninth Prince, without even any personal money, laughed, took the gold, and Xu Xu said: "My good lady, how can you get the money that my uncle supports the family?" Don’t accept it? We’re going back to tidy up the house soon, we need to buy some household items and make some clothes…”

Wanwan was still angry: "Sister Hua, you have to tell Brother Yue in the future that he just left without saying goodbye..."

Before Hua Rong could answer, a soft reprimand came from the door: "Wanwan, don't be rude..."

It was the Nine Princes who came.

Wanwan was shy and anxious: "Ninth Brother, you have to make the decision for me..."

"This king ordered Pengju to set off overnight. Time is running out, and it is understandable that he was too late to say goodbye to you. Wanwan, you can't blame him, let alone your elder sister Hua. This king hates women who are jealous and petty. It is better to be tolerant and considerate of men..." His eyes turned to Hua Rong, "Wanwan, Pengju has no father and no mother, and only had sister Hua take care of her since she was a child. My sister is very respectful..."

Mrs. Li said with a smile: "Yes, princess, from now on, Miss Hua will be your eldest aunt, you must pay special respect to her..."

Hua Rong once again heard the words "eldest sister is a mother", it was really harsh and heart-piercing, but he felt that the Ninth Prince's smile was really an eyesore, and the way of pouting his mouth in salute was also an eyesore. No, just said indifferently: "Pengju and I are not real siblings, Wanwan, so you don't need to be too polite."

The Ninth Prince said: "Wanwan, Yue Pengju is not at home, you have to share the burden for him, take care of Sister Hua instead of him, and don't disobey him."

Wan Wan pouted and said, "Yes, Ninth Brother."

Hua Rong smiled faintly, but didn't make a sound.

"Wanwan, it's not advisable to stay in the prefecture for a long time. You can go and see your house and tidy it up so that you can settle down."

"Xie Ninth Brother!" Wanwan was unwilling to stay in Zhizhou Mansion anymore, upon hearing this, she immediately said, "Nurse, let's go back. Sister Hua, do you want to go with us?"

Although Hua Rong didn't want to be with them, but thinking of staying here alone and facing the Ninth Prince, he immediately said, "Okay, I'll go with you..."

Seeing that she agreed to Wanwan first, the Ninth Prince only smiled: "Alright, Rong'er, you can go out with Wanwan and the others. I will send someone to pick you up in a few days."

"No need, my lord."

"Rong'er, Zhan Luan now, you are alone, it's inconvenient to go out. Besides, this king needs all kinds of talents..."

Hua Rong is calm and calm: Hua Rong is a girl, after experiencing these things, she has already understood her own weight, staying here will not only not be able to share the burden for the prince, but also become a burden..."

"Rong'er, don't be overly modest. Your arrow skills are exquisite, better than many of my guards. You go to rest for two days, and I will send someone to pick you up..." He turned to Wanwan, "Wanwan, I will send ten soldiers to protect you. You guys, you have to take care of Sister Hua more, and you can't neglect her in the slightest."

"Brother Xie Jiu, I will take good care of Sister Hua."

The Ninth Prince watched the two of them leave, and seeing that Mrs. Li was holding the package in his hand, he couldn't help asking: "What is this?"

Mrs. Li said happily: "This is a gift from my aunt, and Miss Hua handed it over to my princess to support my family. My lord, you are really a good character, a person who lives with sincerity, my princess is blessed..."

Ninth Prince looked at Hua Rong inadvertently, saw her turn her eyes, but couldn't see any expression.

Everyone left, Hua Rong tossed and tossed for a while, feeling very panicked, even though he was sleepy, he couldn't fall asleep, so he got out of bed with his clothes on, and went to the window to look at the deserted moonlight outside.I don't know what happened to Yue Peng's move?

Originally, they planned to go out with him, stay together at the end of the world, and take care of each other, but because of the "marriage gift", how could I go to the front line with him?

She stood by the window for a while, when she heard footsteps outside, and then a slight sigh.

She opened the door and went out, under the moonlight, in the snow, there was a lonely figure, with a red jacket, a belt of suet and white jade, her face was like a crown jade, and she was exposed to the wind and night.

"Rong'er..." There was a hint of surprise in his lonely voice: "I thought you had already gone to bed..."

She shook her head: "It's cold, why does the prince linger here?"

The Ninth Prince sighed: "When I think of my father, mother, concubine, and a family of flesh and blood, where can I sleep?"

Hua Rong's heart felt sad, the whole family was wiped out in one go, this kind of misery, is the nightmare that many people in Song Dynasty can't get rid of from now on?

In my heart, I had slight resentment towards Yue Pengju because of the gift of the Ninth Prince to marry him. At this moment, this trace of resentment quietly dissipated.

She whispered: "My lord, now all the heavy burdens are on your shoulders, you must take care of yourself..."

"My poor children fell into the hands of the golden man, they are still young..."

His only son was captured by the golden man, and unfortunately fell off his horse to his death, and his daughters, although they were young, would suffer inhuman ravages in the hands of the golden man.

Seeing his miserable expression, Hua Rong suddenly said: "My lord, I'll go again to see if I can rescue the concubine, mother and daughter..."

"Rong'er, don't do it!" He said in a deep voice, "The Jin army is heavily guarded, and your sacrifice will be in vain if you go."

Hua Rong stood aside silently, without making a sound.

"Rong'er, it's cold outside, go in and rest."

"My lord, go and rest too."

Ninth Prince nodded, and the two returned to the room. There was a fire in the room, with smokeless high-quality coal, and the room was very clean.Hua Rong was about to leave when the Ninth Prince suddenly said, "Rong'er, sit with me again."

She hesitated for a moment, but sat down anyway.

The Ninth Prince spoke slowly: "Rong'er, my father and brother probably won't be able to save me. I'm really unfilial, so I can only hide aside and watch the whole family die..."

Hua Rong plucked up his courage: "My lord, you don't have to blame yourself too much. The Song Dynasty has today, and the Supreme Emperor cannot escape the blame. He favored the six thieves. Hua Shigang caused the world to be in trouble, and the people are in dire straits. Today's disaster is also brought on by them... ..."

She shut up, looked at the Ninth Prince anxiously, then lowered her head: "Hua Rong said something rude, please forgive me..."

The Ninth Prince shook his head: "Rong'er, what you said is the truth. I won't blame you. Everyone in the world knows about this."

Hua Rong felt relieved, and continued: "Lord Nine, the rise and fall of the world now depends entirely on you. I believe that you will definitely do better than your father and brother!"

The Ninth Prince looked at her with a little strangeness in his eyes, and suddenly said: "Rong'er, are you willing to stay by my side and help me?"

"This……"

"Rong'er, you gave up your life to protect me. I rewarded Yue Pengju with Wanwan's house. Do you know why Dudu didn't give you anything?"

She smiled: "Hua Rong won't be rewarded for nothing, and dare not ask for a reward."

His voice lowered: "Since you came to Xiangzhou Daying, I always hoped that you had nothing, so that you could stay safely... Rong'er, you have no one to rely on, and now, I am also a family member." All lost, would you like to stay by my side forever?"

Her heart was shocked, and after a while, she said word by word: "Thanks to the help of the prince, Hua Rong escaped from the pirates by chance and was reborn as a human being. After that terrible experience, she no longer wants to marry in this life, and has failed the prince a lot." Love! Please forgive me.”

The Ninth Prince did not expect her to speak so bluntly, as if all the roads were blocked for a moment, he was extremely disappointed, and said in a deep voice: "Rong'er, you can think about it for a few days before replying to me."

"Hehe, my lord, I have thought it over a long time ago, and I will never change my mind." At this time, it was already dawn, and she said slowly: "My lord, you go and rest first, and I will go with the princess." After two days of rest, I will not say goodbye to you."

The Ninth Prince couldn't keep him, so he let out a long sigh: "Okay."
