"I regret teaching my husband to seek the title of Marquis."
Su Ziji released his hold on her hand, gently stroked her hair, and sighed: "Then I have a song for you, can you listen to it?"
He recited it as he spoke, with a clear voice.
"The hut is in a human environment, without the noise of carriages and horses.
I ask you, what can you do? The mind is far away from itself.
Picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence, you can leisurely see the Nanshan Mountain.
The mountain air is getting better day by day and the birds are flying back and forth.
There is a true meaning in this, but I have forgotten to explain it. "
This poem made Ye Buhuitun's eyes light up. She is the daughter of a bookstore owner. Among other things, she has read a lot of books. This poem is very good. Even though she already knew her husband's talent, this poem also made her surprise.
That's all. Her husband's wise yet sad eyes made her lower her head shyly. After a while, she woke up from a dream and answered in a voice like a gnat: "It's a good poem, I like it."
"But this is the treatment only given to the grandsons of governors, princes, princes, and sons of governors."
Seeing the confusion in her eyes, Su Ziji did not explain: "Do you still remember all the difficulties we encountered back then?"
"It's great to pick chrysanthemums under the eastern fence and see the Nanshan Mountain leisurely. Let me ask you, how can you defeat a group of ruffians, tax collectors, county officials, government officials, and officials, a group of tigers and wolves?"
"Not to mention anything else, at that time in a small county town, there was no need to be an official. All it took was gangsters to trick me and almost destroy my family."
"If you don't have fame, the seventh-grade county magistrate can make you and I die without a burial place, destroy our families and destroy our clans."
"Have you forgotten the crisis when your father-in-law passed away?"
"Don't say that the rich and powerful will not die well, and the people will freeze to death a hundred times."
When Su Ziji mentioned this, Ye Buhui was startled and fell into memories. His smile was bitter yet sweet: "Yes, if you hadn't been the emperor's grandson, we would have been guilty of murder."
"It's just that, thinking about what happened at that time, it still feels like a dream."
"At that time, you came to the bookstore to help every day. My father...my father thought that you were filial and a good boy who knew how to study and make progress, so he asked me to bring you some meat cakes to eat every day. How could I do that at that time? Did you think you would have this day?"
Not only did she think of the luxurious mansion today, but at that time she never imagined that she and Su Ziji would actually get married, and even more unexpectedly that Su Ziji was not a descendant of the Su family, but a grandson of the emperor.
Ye Buhui was not an artistic girl in a boudoir. She only recalled it and immediately knew that "picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence and leisurely seeing the southern mountains" was just a dream.
"Don't say that the rich and powerful will not die well, and the people will freeze to death a hundred times." Ye Buhui read this sentence. It was really sweet to drink ice cheese in winter. It was sweet at first, but it was cold when it entered the throat. It was alarming. Thinking of this, she lifted it from Su Ziji's arms. Beginning: "By the way, before you came back, I was summoned by the Queen once."
Su Ziji, who was originally holding Ye Buhui in his arms and patting Ye Buhui's back gently to comfort him, paused with his hands and lowered his eyebrows: "When?"
"It was about a few days ago." Ye Buhui said: "At that time, I was still in the house on Taohua Lane, and I was suddenly taken away by the palace maid and eunuch. I was really shocked. I didn't have time to change my clothes. Thinking about it now, I still feel That summons was like a dream."
Su Ziji asked softly: "How does the Queen treat you? What did you say and do after you met the Queen?"
Ye Buhui recalled: "I was called into an oxcart by the palace maid and eunuch. They were respectful but did not talk to me along the way. I was uneasy and did not dare to say anything."
"After I entered the palace, I was led to another palace and met the empress, whom I had met once before. I was a little nervous because of my nervousness, and the empress was also very cold. She only asked about my origins. You asked me how I got married to you, and I told you everything."
"I felt at that time that the Queen didn't seem to like me very much. I should have been more restrained because of this, but I don't know why. Later we slowly chatted, and slowly I saw that the Queen became less nervous, and the Queen Your Majesty seems to be much more kind to me."
Having said this, Ye Buhui was still a little uneasy. She snuggled into Su Ziji's arms again and said softly: "Tell me, does it make it difficult for you for us to become husband and wife?"
As he spoke, his fingers subconsciously pulled at his clothes.
Su Ziji, unlike Ye Buhui, didn't think there was something going on here. The queen's attitude towards Ye Buhui had changed. In Su Ziji's opinion, it might be the influence of blood.
Ye Buhui is the real descendant of the crown prince, and the queen is Ye Buhui's direct grandmother. The grandfather and grandson do not know each other when they meet. Some of the characteristics and similarities of Ye Buhui's biological father will still make the queen feel friendly.
As for her initial indifference towards Ye Buhui, this is easy to understand. From the Queen's point of view, she is the only descendant of the Crown Prince, the emperor's grandson. The emperor's grandson had been living among the people for more than ten years, growing up in a poor family. It seems that he has been greatly wronged by marrying the daughter of a bookstore owner. Even if this woman is a descendant of a loyal minister recognized by the queen, in the queen's opinion, she is not worthy of her status.
In order to appease Ye Buhui, Su Ziji naturally whispered and explained.
The two talked to each other, and as the night progressed, they could vaguely hear the sound of crickets coming from outside the door. In this quiet environment, the two looked at each other, and for some reason, the atmosphere became entangled.
Thinking of Ye Buhui's vague uneasiness, and thinking that they had been married in name only for a long time, Su Ziji thought of a way to quickly make Ye Buhui feel at ease. As soon as the thoughts came together, he felt like they were hugging each other. The little fox that was still squeezed between the two of them was a bit of an eyesore.
However, this beautiful little fox was looking at him and Ye Buhui with its eyes open. No matter what he looked at, Su Ziji felt that he was making a joke on the couple.
Oh, I almost forgot, this is a vixen who can understand human speech. When the couple reunites, the little fox should not get involved in this kind of thing!
Su Ziji thought to himself and grabbed it with his hand.
"Chirp!" It was suddenly carried by someone and flew directly through the air. It couldn't help but struggle with its four claws. It didn't wake up until it landed outside the bedroom door. It wanted to run back, but its nose almost hit the door that closed automatically without wind. , the little fox opened his eyes wide, slammed his paws on the door in disbelief, and barked twice.
"Chirp!" How dare you say you're not an idiot if you disturb a young couple at this time!
The big fox heard the little fox's protest and lay down in a corner of the outer hall, laughing weakly.
The little fox finally reacted and blushed immediately.
Fortunately, the fox fur covered his face, making his red face invisible.
But that’s not to blame!
The little fox thought gloomily. It had been following Su Ziji and Ye Buhui for so long. Most of the time, it slept with the couple. How could it have been imagined that one day the situation would change!
Opening the door to the outer hall, squatting on the steps, looking up at the bright moon and stars, the little fox sighed heavily. Suddenly, unreasonable loneliness, emptiness and coldness hit its heart.
