Zhu Yuancun immediately refuted Zhu Siying's words:
"Sister, you are only a year away from getting your haircut, why are you still so ignorant of propriety? In the past, my sister thought that you were the youngest among the three of us, so she was always courteous and caring to you. You used to be disrespectful to her all the time in the house. That’s all, but now that my sister is His Majesty’s servant, how can you continue to be so disrespectful?”
Zhu Yuancun has never been so straightforward and cruel to Zhu Siying.
Zhu Siying didn't realize what kind of words she would give Zhu Sijia if her actions just now were seen by others. She looked at Zhu Yuancun's dark face and was instantly confused:
"I didn't mean it...I'm just not used to my sister suddenly being so close to me."
After saying that, she cried so hard that she was afraid of being heard by others, so she tightly covered her mouth and nose and did not dare to make a sound.
He looked so pitiful, as if he had been bullied by Zhu Yuancun.
Zhu Sijia handed Zhu Siying a handkerchief: "Wipe your tears later, don't let others see the clues."
In her previous life, she only thought that her younger sister was pretentious, petty, and had high ambitions and low intentions.
But these are all innocuous minor problems. Zhu Siying is just a fourteen-year-old girl. She is essentially a piece of pure and kind-hearted person. In the end, she ended up with such a miserable end. It is really not her fault.
So she is now more tolerant of Zhu Siying.
Zhu Yuancun hated seeing the tears of girls the most, so he quickly apologized:
"Siying, don't cry. Brother really didn't mean it. Didn't you say last time that you wanted to get acquainted with the young master of Mr. Tang's family? Brother will help you two connect later, okay?"
He didn't mean to embarrass Zhu Siying, but Mrs. Yu had specifically told him before this autumn hunt to keep an eye on his little sister's every word, deed, and move. For someone to make a big fuss about this moment, it was a big deal for the Yan Palace. Not a good thing.
Zhu Sijia reached out and poked her brother on the forehead: "No, that young master of the Tang family is not a good man, and he cannot push Siying into the fire pit."
Zhu Yuancun: "Why?"
In her previous life, she had heard gossip from the servants of Prince Yi. Although most of it revolved around other people's parents' feuding and internal feuds, this was her only way to obtain information.
I didn't expect it to come in handy at times like this.
The young master of the Tang family is a sweet-talking and arrogant man. On the surface, he has extraordinary appearance and upright character, but he always likes to beat and scold his wife and daughter.
Zhu Sijia smiled faintly: "It doesn't matter why, it comes from the heart. He has twin eyes and three white eyes, so it's better to stay away from him."
Zhu Siying stopped crying and looked up at her: "But Master Tang is now a popular person in front of His Majesty, and Young Master Tang is also highly regarded. If you want to find a good match again, the eldest sister said that my status can only be given to other men. As a concubine..."
Otherwise, it would be a low marriage, but it would be better for her to be an old girl than to marry one of those low-ranking officials as the main wife.
It's a joke, even if she is a concubine, how can a dignified concubine from Prince Yan's palace become a concubine for others? It is too late for others to rush to propose marriage.
I think the relationship between my sister and myself was caused by Zhu Siyi's instigation day after day.
Zhu Sijia just sneered without any trace.
Zhu Yuancun pinched Zhu Siying's face with a smile: "My sister is now favored by His Majesty, and even my mother has become the third-grade imperial concubine. As long as you put aside those small thoughts and don't cause trouble, and rebuild the old relationship with your sister, there is no need to worry about not having a good marriage." ?”
After all, Zhu Sijia is only a year or two older than the two of them, but she has to shoulder so many responsibilities, so Zhu Yuancun is much more sensible than the other younger brothers.
"Mrs. Third Grade Imperial Order?" Zhu Sijia's eyes widened, "When did Your Majesty issue the order?"
Zhu Yuancun said doubtfully: "Just this morning, my sister lives with His Majesty, how could I not know?"
Zhu Scarlett slowly took a breath of cold air: "I really don't know."
Yan Xiu asked the Yu family to impose his order without saying a word. He probably knew what happened last night and wanted to stand up for Zhu Sijia, but the one-time offer was... too much, right?
I'm just afraid that it will attract the jealousy of more people.
This emperor's temperament really does whatever he wants.
Zhu Scarlett was flattered, and while worried, she secretly vowed: I must do my best to keep this honor for my mother.
When she was distracted, cheers suddenly rang out on the polo field. The three siblings turned to look, and Yan Xiu unexpectedly walked onto the field and walked in front of the eagle.
The imperial robes embroidered with dragon patterns floated in the sunlight at the heavy industry site. The autumn breeze came slowly. Yan Xiu walked in front of the unshackled eagle. The jade pendant hanging on his waist shone like a god descending from heaven. World.
He reached out his hand to the eagle.
At this moment, the eagle actually squatted down, bowed to him, and put his head on Yan Xiu's hand affectionately and gently and rubbed it repeatedly.
There was thunderous discussion and appreciation in the venue, and the accompanying historian quickly took out paper and pen to record this miracle. All the people of Daqin knelt down at the opportunity, and uniformly shouted beautiful and shocking slogans:
"God helps the Qin Dynasty! Liuhe is the only one! The gods are holy! Immortal for all ages!"
Yan Xiu's smile became more and more captivating.
Being able to be worshiped by thousands of people will make anyone feel high-spirited.
Scenes like this have happened before, but Zhu Sijia has never witnessed it with her own eyes like today.
Seeing it today is shocking to the heavens and the earth.
And Yan Xiu was in the audience, across several seas of people, looking at Zhu Sijia from a distance. The sky and the earth were vast and vast, and the golden drums were noisy all around, but he didn't care at all. It seemed that Zhu Sijia was the only one in his eyes at this moment.
That look made Zhu Sijia's brain break.
She had seen this look in her previous life.
On the night she and Yan Xing got married.
Yan Xiu came to Prince Yi's Mansion in person to attend their wedding.
When she was sent from the main hall to the bridal chamber, she was detained by the nuns in the house. They deliberately failed to help her properly, causing her to fall down in embarrassment in front of all the guests.
She even fell at Yan Xiu's feet, and her hijab slipped. She raised her head and met Yan Xiu's suddenly scarlet eyes.
He seemed to have the same expression at that time, but it was different from the triumphant look today, and was completely filled with sadness.
From the night of Qiu Lie to the night of Zhu Sijia and Yan Xing's wedding, she had been deliberately avoiding him.
She didn't expect to appear in this way and appear in front of him again.
Three months after her wedding night, Yan Xiucai finally welcomed the eighteen-year-old Zhu Siyi into the palace.
Is it a coincidence?
I wish Scarlett didn’t dare to think about it any more.
…
There are only five days until the polo match.
A few days after the falcon training session, Yan Xiu went out hunting day and night. When he returned to the camp, he was covered in the smell of blood, which always scared Zhu Sijia.
Moreover, he did not let Zhu Sijia sleep with her in the past few days. When the two of them were lying on the same couch, he just gently hugged her to sleep.
Zhu Sijia made countless mental preparations to sleep with him again, but he never forced her once.
An emperor who did not focus on desires but restrained himself and returned to propriety...
Zhu Sijia seemed to understand why so many noble ladies admired him.
Yan Xiu came back from hunting that day. He hunted several white foxes with fine coats and planned to give them to Zhu Sijia to make a big cloak for them.
But she didn't wait for him in the camp as usual.
Yan Xiu asked: "Where is Beauty Zhu?"
Hu Shunhai looked helpless: "I wish the beauty was called away by the Queen Mother's people."
