Murong Ze, who came out of nowhere
Chapter XII
The carriage was approaching, so there was no need to lift the curtain. H already knew who was in the car!
"Old Seven, you wouldn't be surprised that big brother returned, right?”Murong Ze smiled and hugged Murong. H's shoulder and brought him through the door.
Murong? H followed silently. When they were almost in the study room, he asked,"Fifth brother, do you have anything important to instruct this little brother?”
Murong Ze didn't answer him and only asked,""Your study is still in this direction, right?”
Nodding, he ordered the servants to prepare some tea and invited Murong Ze into the study to wait for him to continue. This fifth brother usually looked like a carefree wild crane. This time, he did feel a little different. However, he did not expect to appear in his residence at this moment. It was better to wait for everyone to leave before returning. This could not help but arouse his doubts. However, it was best not to speak rashly now and listen to what he had to say.
"This year's New Year's dinner is the happiest we've had in so many years. Seventh Brother cooked so well for the first time.”Murong Ze was spouting nonsense. It seemed like he didn't want to get into the main topic as soon as possible, so he would just take the opportunity to talk to him a little more.
"Fifth brother is too kind. Aren't we still helping? Today, Sixth Brother came over early to do some work.”
"Ah Xun, that kid, is a typical cold-faced but warm-hearted man.”
Murong? H smiled." Fifth Brother's words hit Sixth Brother's spot." He paused for a moment before asking,""Fifth brother, is there something urgent that you need me for?”
Murong Ze's expression was unfathomable and he did not answer directly." Am I disturbing you?”
"I don't dare. What are you talking about, Fifth Brother?”
Murong Ze took a sip of tea and praised,"Seventh Younger Brother's tea has a unique charm. Why does the West Lake Longjing tea smell so fragrant?”
Murong? When H heard this, his eyes dimmed slightly and he couldn't help but think of her. This tea had a kind of Yunxi taste. He had ordered the servants to make it after he returned from the Junzhu Mansion. Although it wasn't as good as hers, it still had her taste. He was already satisfied.
See Murong? H didn't say anything, and Murong Ze only sized him up from the side. The two of them actually fell silent.
" It's my first time meeting Princess Wuyou today, but I feel like we're old acquaintances." After a long silence, Murong Ze suddenly said," I deeply admire her talent. Fourth Brother is in luck this time."”
He suddenly mentioned Yun Xi and Murong? H's heart tightened, and the pain spread again. The pain that flashed past his eyes did not escape Murong Ze's eyes. He continued,"I heard that Second Brother is having a wedding on the 15th of the first month. I wonder if Fourth Brother will also be having a double celebration with them?”
Murong? "Yunxi has to mourn for her father for a year. It won't be so early."”
"Oh?" Murong Ze's smile was as sly as a fox's." Then I still have a chance?”
"What did you say?" Murong? H almost jumped up." Fifth Brother, why did you come here tonight?”
The moment he said that, he regretted it. He had wanted to deal with Murong Ze until the end. H was naturally not an easy person to deal with. He had a strategy and decided to win a thousand miles. When he was led by the nose, when he was provoked, he would fly into a rage out of humiliation, but-
It had to be said that if he could only be described as a little fox, then his fifth brother was definitely a fox that had become a demon. He had easily identified his weakness. The secret that he did not want others to know the most had already been seized by him. Could it be that he would lose everything next?
" Seventh Brother, why are you so angry? I was just joking." Murong Ze stood up and walked to the bed, staring at the snow outside the room. His cold voice drifted over," Although we have the freedom to pursue, it's also shameful to snatch a brother's wife. Don't you think so, Seventh Brother?"”
Murong? H calmed down. After hearing Murong Ze's words, a sharp light flashed across his eyes and he asked in a deep voice,"What does Fifth Brother mean?"
Murong Ze wasn't angry." Seventh Brother clearly knows. I don't need to explain anymore."”
"Then what is Fifth Brother talking about tonight? After saying so much, he even mentioned Yun Xi. What was his motive?”
"I just wanted to tell you that I'm back.”
He was back! Murong Ze was back!
"So what?"
"Of course the situation in Tiandu has to change."
Murong? H was shocked." You want to fight for the throne too?”
Murong Ze laughed maniacally." I'm also surnamed Murong. Why can't I fight for it? " Besides…" He sighed softly." He said that it should have been mine…"
"What did Fifth Brother say?"
He was shocked." Nothing!"
" Fifth Brother, don't tell me you think I'll help you, that's why you're looking for me," H also walked to the window and looked at the heavy snow outside." I will never betray Second Brother.”
Murong Ze smiled." I'm not in a hurry to get your promise. I'll see what you choose when the time comes. I'll give you a chance to choose."”
"Why are you telling me this? You want me to report your intentions to everyone, right?”Murong? H snorted coldly.
"That's right. I'm just afraid that you don't know my intentions. Right now, the capital and Dynasty are on the verge of exploding. It's time to make a decision.”Murong Ze muttered, as if he was not talking to Murong? He was talking to himself.
"Then why did you mention Yunxi? Will she change anything?”This is Murong? It was a question that H had to care about, because no matter what the outcome was, no matter who she belonged to in the end, he only hoped that she would not be hurt. It was best not to be hurt by him.
Murong Ze looked at his younger brother and smiled.""You finally admitted your feelings, huh? h! But this is not a bad thing. She has the freedom to choose, and you have the right to love, right?”After saying that, he patted Murong? However, the latter obviously did not like his words and snorted coldly.
" Father gave her something. As for what it is, no one knows except for her and Father. Perhaps she doesn't know herself. And this thing is said to be…" He didn't continue, but its importance was self-evident.
Murong? H's heart turned cold. She suddenly hated her father for handing over such an important thing to her. Why was it her? Wasn't this pushing her into the fire? If Second Brother wanted to snatch the things from her hands when he achieved great things, he, Murong? Where should I go?
"Do you understand? You have different standpoints, and it's only a matter of time before you meet with weapons. If you want to change, remember to come and find me, Seventh Brother!”
Murong? H looked up at Murong Ze and asked solemnly,""Why did you come to me? Why me?”
"I wouldn't have misjudged you, would I? h!”
"Why her?"
"You have to ask your own heart."
"Why did you suddenly come back to fight for the throne? Fifth brother, are you interested?”
Murong Ze thought about this question for a long time. In the end, his faint voice floated in the snow.
"Because in this world, there are only two people who will eventually agree with my father. One of them is me. Only if I succeed can I fulfill his twenty-three years of prayer.”
Murong? H thought about this sentence for a long time. What was his father's wish, and it was a wish that had been hidden in his heart for twenty-three years? Why did Fifth Brother say that he knew? Then who else would have the same thoughts as his father?
He wanted to ask, but he could no longer see Murong Ze. The snow had even buried his footprints…
_____________________________________________________________________________
It was snowing. Seeing snow for the first time, his excitement was indescribable!
The days after the New Year were quite lively, but the Junzhu Manor was still the same as usual. Firstly, I don't have any relatives to visit. Secondly, I'm in a lawsuit now, so no one will come to curry favor with me. For a moment, the family is very cold, so I'm happy to be at peace.
However, I know that this is only temporary. The first thing that is placed in front of me is Mi Yuan's matter, and also Miss Liu's matter. This isn't…
On the fifth day of the new year, her eldest miss 'invitation had arrived. She wanted to meet Murong on the seventh day of the new year. h!
My head became very big, but things had already come to this point. Although I was unwilling, who asked me to agree? A fast talker!
After thinking for a long time, she couldn't think of a suitable reason to invite Murong. When I passed the residence, I simply sent Qing Feng to say that the princess had something to ask of me and invited His Highness Prince Rui to the residence for a chat. After that, I discussed the time with Liu Si Yan and I retired.
Early in the morning on the seventh day of the new year, Murong had just had breakfast with Shu Lei. I was praising him in my heart. Who knew that he would throw a snowball at me when he entered the door?
I was originally extremely afraid of the cold, but this was really enough for me. If it wasn't for my image, I really wanted to chase after him and beat him up all over the courtyard. It would be difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart if I didn't beat him up!
"Hey, do you know that it's very cold?”I even sneezed to emphasize my tone.
He had a smile on his face as if his evil plan had succeeded. I gritted my teeth.
"Is it really very cold? I think it's alright! Hahaha…"
Murong? H, you bastard-
"Pa…"
"Aiyo…"
What was going on?
Shu Lei clapped his hands handsomely and asked,""Are you really not cold?"
Hehe, good child, I didn't give you so much money in vain. When did you get such a big snowball? How could you be so accurate? You threw it straight into that annoying fellow's neck. You've avenged your sister.
Murong? H jumped twice and shook off the snow on his body. He complained,"You don't have to be so ruthless. I came early in the morning to listen to Fourth sister-in-law's instructions.”
Oh, do you think I can bully you just because I need you? Even if that's the case, it's only right. You still owe me for what happened to Mi Yuan last time, okay? Besides, this has nothing to do with me. If you and Liu Siyan succeed in the future, you'll have to thank me. Hmph, forget it. I'll let it go. Let's wait until the real female pig comes out!
Speaking of Liu Siyan, why isn't she here yet? I've been waiting anxiously. That love-struck H is now asking me what's the matter. I can't even give him a perfunctory answer. With his rich experience in deception, how can I hold him back? In a moment, I'll be exposed.
"Fourth sister-in-law, did you specially call me here for something important?”There was a caring look in his eyes. There was no teasing at all. He was very serious.
I was stunned for a moment. What made him suddenly nervous? Did he really think that something had happened to me today? How did he judge? Could it really be that a sesame seed fell into the eye of a needle?
" Uh…" I stammered." About Miyuan…"
It was best not to say anything explicitly, and it was best to misunderstand. He only hoped that Eldest Miss Liu would appear soon…
Finally, I saw Azurepeak come in and report that there was a guest visiting. Sit down for the time being and come back by yourself, Murong? H had a strange look on his face. I couldn't care less and just ran away.
"Azurepeak, I really want to hear what they are talking about.”Azurepeak and I were standing guard outside the study room. We were talking about a visitor. It was just a secret signal that Liu Siyan had arrived. Originally, it had nothing to do with me, but I was just curious. Although I couldn't really eavesdrop, I didn't want to go too far.
"Azurepeak, what do you think they are doing now? "Could it be…" I gave Azurepeak an ambiguous look. The latter sighed helplessly and shouted,"Princess…"
Why do I hear a sense of disappointment? Could it be that I'm hallucinating?
"Azurepeak, do you feel wronged following someone like me?”To be honest, I've wanted to ask this question for a long time. He was originally the Emperor's personal guard, one of the top experts in the palace. Now that he's following someone like me, the difference is too big. I'm afraid he doesn't just have a little bit of thoughts!
Azurepeak looked at me solemnly but didn't say anything. It seemed like he had tacitly agreed. I felt a wave of sadness in my heart. Sigh, although I knew the result, I still felt very uncomfortable expressing it so clearly! Don't you admire me at all?
I couldn't help but purse my lips and fall silent!
"Princess…"
" Princess…" Azurepeak's words were interrupted, and I jumped in fright. I hurriedly stood up and saw Liu Siyan.
Liu Siyan's face was filled with sorrow!
The sadness that could not be concealed, the despair that could not be ignored. Why? They came out so quickly. In less than ten minutes, what did they say? Or should I say Murong? What did H say?
"Miss Liu, you…"
"Princess, please don't ask me, okay?”It's over, tears are coming. I hurriedly gave Azurepeak a look and asked him to go and see Murong. I pulled her to a quiet place. I think she probably doesn't want many people to see her like this.
"I still have to thank you today, Princess. Thank you for giving me this opportunity.”
I didn't pay attention to her words of thanks. I suddenly wanted to know what the result was. I was impulsive. I was actually such a busybody.
"Did it not go well?"
She looked up at me with tears in her eyes.
" Although I knew that he didn't have me in his heart, it's still hard to accept that he said it so openly. Here…" She pressed her hand on her chest." It hurts here, it hurts too much!”
Of course, I could understand. I knew that my brothers didn't like me, but when that day came, I still had to tremble and ask them why. When the answer was presented in front of me, wasn't my heart broken? It hurt…It hurt so much that I went crazy!
I patted her hand." Things have already come to this. I've finally fought for it. At least after the pain, I won't have any regrets!”What else can I comfort you with? Feelings are the hardest to explain. I'm so childish and ridiculous myself, how can I analyze other people's feelings?
She finally cried. I sat silently beside her and didn't say a word. H's final rejection was actually puzzling. Since he had no interest in her, why was he so close to her? Could it be that it was only because of the benefits? Or was she born with a playful personality? She could play around, but when a woman finally wanted his promise, she would reject her mercilessly and hurt her?
Murong? H, I completely despise you. In the future, if you truly fall in love with a girl, I'll let you suffer like this! Humph! A thousand times more bitter!
"Try to get along with the Second Prince. Perhaps they will be a good couple in the future!”
This was the only way. Why should he persist?
She didn't say anything. I helplessly turned my head to the side. I really didn't want to see her tearful eyes again.
"Thank you for your advice, Princess. But could he really let it go? Can you really accept this?" As he spoke, he gritted his teeth.
" But…" I grabbed her hand involuntarily." Why do you have to continue to make things difficult for yourself? Isn't it better to let yourself live?" Was the Second Prince really not a good person?”
Although I have a bad impression of Murong Zhan, I can't deny the fact that he's a dragon among men. Moreover, in the future…with Liu Siyan's beauty and talent, coupled with Prime Minister Liu's help, it might not be impossible for the couple to be harmonious and loving for a hundred years? Why did she have to make things difficult for him?
"If you really love someone, it won't be so easy to let go!”She sighed faintly.
I deeply disagreed." If he's really worthy of love, then if he doesn't love me, I'll definitely turn around and leave without hesitation. I won't mistreat myself. Why can't you be more unrestrained?”
After hearing my words, she actually smiled slightly." That's because the princess has never truly loved. If you truly love, you will never care about your own gains and losses. Even if he doesn't love you, you will still be unable to let him go. He will be entangled in your heart like that. Everyone else will be eclipsed in your eyes. You will no longer pay attention to anyone, no matter how outstanding he is!”
I had always known that Liu Siyan was beautiful, extraordinarily beautiful. She was like a wealthy begonia, beautiful and graceful. But in that instant just now, when she said 'love', I suddenly realized that a casual expression could be so soul-stirring. I thought that her expression at that time should have been the most beautiful.
However, I can't accept her opinion now. I can't imagine that love is so humble. Besides, what's the use of saying this? It's just an excuse to comfort my shattered dream. This is the sorrow of a woman. Feelings are always ahead of reason. Maybe one day, I will be like this.
"Princess, don't let too many people know about today's matter, okay?”
I nodded and she smiled. Her smile was a little sad." I actually want to be good friends with you.”
"We already are!"
She shook her head." No, you're helping me out of kindness. It's not that you really treat me as a sister. I know that it's not our fault. It's this environment, this Tiandu, and this empire that made us like this. If we were to be reborn at the right time and place, would you be willing to be my sister, Princess?”
I nodded and she smiled gratefully.
"I know that the princess has been troubled by something recently. I hope that this thing in my hand can help you share your worries.”As she spoke, she took out an envelope. She wanted to open it but was stopped by her." You can read it later. I'm leaving!”
I looked at her foolishly and suddenly felt that her back was very determined. She turned around very decisively. She was actually so weak!
Azurepeak just happened to be here, so I asked him to secretly escort Liu Siyan back to the residence. Firstly, it's a matter of safety, and secondly, it's a secret.
After Liu Siyan left, I still couldn't calm down. I sigh at Liu Siyan's infatuation, but the matter of love concerns me...
How could he say it clearly?
"Princess, what are you thinking?"
"Ah?"
"Why haven't you left yet?"”
It was actually Murong? H, he was still in my study. When I saw him, anger surged in my heart."You-"
Murong? H's expression was also very bad. His face was dark. I didn't notice it just now. I suddenly looked up and met his eyes. I couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. His expression was really scary. I swallowed the words that were about to come out of my mouth.
He approached me aggressively." What about me? So the princess specially sent an invitation for me to come because of today's matter? Did Eldest Miss Liu give the princess any benefits? She suddenly wanted to play matchmaker? Or is it that the princess is about to have a good thing and can't wait for everyone in the world to be like you?”
To be honest, I was really stunned by his rapid firing. He usually had a cheeky smile on his face or a smitten look on his face. Today was the first time he did this. I was really stunned by him for a moment. I really don't dare to attack him like before. After all, a wise man shouldn't be at a disadvantage in front of him!
"If Your Highness Prince Rui is fine, please return to the residence as soon as possible!”
I can't beat you, so I'll send you off!
He snorted coldly." Don't you want to know what I said to Miss Liu?”
I really want to know, but it's not important now. You should leave quickly!
"There's no need. That's between the two of you. I'm an outsider after all.”
"Oh? Then why is the princess eavesdropping outside?"
What was that? He knew that I was eavesdropping, but I didn't hear anything. He really wronged me. However, I still had a motive, and I also took action. Although the result was a little bad, I couldn't deny it.
"Even so, I don't want to know now, okay?”
"But I really want to say it!"
What? He was really excited!
I turned around and left. What's wrong with him today?
However, just as I turned around, I felt a grip on my wrist. It turned out that he had reached out and grabbed me with so much force. I frowned. It hurt!
"What are you doing? Let go!"
Not only did he not let go, he even exerted more force.
"Ah!" I cried out in pain, sigh! I sent Azurepeak to take care of Liu Siyan, and I've ordered the others not to go near the study room without summoning them. Who's going to save me now?
"Hurry up and let go. What's wrong with you?”
"I'm crazy. Do you know why I'm crazy?”
How would I know, could it be…
He was actually in love with Liu Siyan, but he had no choice but to give up because of the situation. In fact, he still felt sad. If that's the case, I despise him even more. Men who sacrifice women for power are even more abominable! I was furious. I didn't know where I got the strength to actually shake him off. I hurriedly grabbed my wrist to take a look...
Heavens, it was all green!
"Murong? H, I despise you!" I retreated to a safe distance and immediately shouted at him.
Unexpectedly, he was not angry with this sentence. Instead, he repeated,"Yes, I should be despised. I'm such a gutless person…"
I was stunned! What did he mean? I don't understand!
