"She is still a twelve-year-old girl, and my uncle is so cruel." He was very surprised after hearing this, and also sympathized with Qingya.
"Dad won't care about this. He is just a cold stone. He has suppressed my little sister every day for the past six years. I usually protect her a little, but this will undoubtedly add fuel to the fire."
"The lonely king saw his sister that day. He only knew that she was scolded by the rod, but he didn't know that she had been living like this all these years."
When Kuike talked about his sister, he couldn't help but feel a little sad. He turned the little lantern and lowered his eyes and said: "She is lucky not to be beaten to death by her father. Looking at my Li family, we are considered a well-known family. Even my two aunts have never seen such a waste of a daughter."
"I think your Majesty has also met little sister Gao. She is the apple of my uncle's eye. Even among the few girls from the Gao family, no one has ever lived like Qingya."
He turned the ring on his thumb and felt distressed in his heart: "Qingya, I'm suffering... It's the King's fault because he came back too late."
"Your Majesty, please don't blame yourself. It has nothing to do with this matter, but Daddy himself is obsessed with it."
"What about sister Ru?"
Kuike spoke softly: "The third sister is living a good life. Her mother passed away earlier. Her father cherished her and lost her mother at a young age, so he took good care of her and pampered her. She was fed and fed with the best, but she was not good at her studies. , there is no virtue either.”
"We are all sisters, why are they so different and treated differently?"
"How could Kuike know this? It's daddy's little idea! Seeing that my sister is pregnant again now, she hopes she won't be a daughter! Otherwise, I don't know what will happen?"
He replied: "Hey, we juniors don't know how to persuade my uncle!"
"Your Majesty, in the eyes of my father, you are a more important person than my biological son. If you are advised to do so, please do so in moderation. If not, I hope that your Majesty will protect my little sister!"
He had mixed feelings in his heart, clenched his fists tightly and calmed down: "Don't worry, Gu Wang will definitely protect her as long as he keeps his word."
Wanyanyong smiled with unwavering eyes, and Kuike was convinced.
When the carriage arrived at the door of Li's house, Kui Ke pointed at the lantern and said, "I will go back to the mansion to get some things and leave. Your Majesty, since Qing Ya is going to the palace, Kui Ke will leave a lantern in the carriage! Your Majesty, Oh, no, cousin, look after my little sister more."
"Okay, I'll do it myself."
After Wan Yanyong agreed, the two of them dismounted silently and entered the mansion. Kuike had something urgent to do, so he quickly walked into the inner mansion, carrying the remaining lantern and ran towards where he lived.
Wanyan Yong arrived at Weilan Garden. Through the layers of plum branches, she could vaguely see the elegance in front of the independent hall, already dressed beautifully. She lowered her eyebrows and nodded, her eyes wandering on the pattern of her dress without raising her head to take a look. Li Shi and Gongren were both Ren Ha was sitting, the two high officials seemed to be explaining something, Qing Ya would nod from time to time.
He walked in quickly, and then someone came to announce: "Master, His Royal Highness King Yong has arrived."
Hearing those words, Li Shi jumped up from his seat like a doll, and immediately walked to the threshold to greet him: "Your Majesty, why are you here? I am arranging for someone to pack things for Qingya! Come and take a seat. .”
"Uncle, there is no need to be polite."
"Come on, Lu'er, take your seat."
"Okay!" Wan Yanyong replied calmly, looked at Qing Ya's eyes again, and followed Li Shi's invitation and walked in.
At this time, Kyouto stood up respectfully and moved away from his seat. After he sat down, she stepped aside and sat sideways.
After a while, a maid served tea and placed it on the tea table next to him, and another maid came and served some pastries.
"Come on, Lu'er, have some tea."
He gently picked up a piece of white milk cake, bit off a piece and said, "It's okay. Wulu just returned from the Ministry of War. He was thinking about having tea with his uncle, so he picked up his sister and stopped her from getting nervous."
He looked up at Qingya and asked, "What are my uncle and aunt talking about? Wulu looks at the atmosphere and something is not right!"
"It's nothing, I just told her a few words before I left. The girl should stick to her duties outside the home, so as not to be laughed at by other people." Li Shi raised his fingertips, untied his gray regimental pattern shirt, and held it. Serious words were spoken to Qingya.
"My uncle is too worried. Now that my sister is here, she will treat the country as her own home just like she did when she was a child. There is no need to be formal. If you are too formal, you will get into trouble."
"Your Majesty, Renshan, except for my stubborn personality, my dog girl is also obedient and docile. If she gets into trouble, your Majesty, just discipline her and she will gradually understand. ," Kyouto hugged Mrs. Yu to warm her hands, and glanced at Qingya who was standing and nodding.
"Okay, aunt, just don't worry!"
Wan Yanyong once again looked at the girl in front of him. She was small and independent in front of the hall. Her shoulders were straight and her hands were placed together gently. What she held tightly in her hands was a piece of plain silk embroidered with a single plum blossom. Surrounded by a long velvet white collar, and the moon-shaped earrings resting on the smooth velvet, a small nest was formed.
There is a light blue pleated skirt underneath her dark pink clothes, which vaguely covers her light yellow footwear. When the cold wind blows slightly, her graceful figure can be vaguely discerned, but there is no trace of aura between her eyes.
He seemed to be aware of it and asked softly: "Qingya, you were feeling unwell a few days ago, are you feeling better now?"
All the answers were reluctant: "It's already great! Cousin, don't worry."
She was extremely polite, treated Wan Yanyong like a guest, spoke and acted respectfully, and did not let go at all, actually losing some of the intimacy of previous years.
"Qingya, the lonely king has said it. You and I must never be so polite. You and the lonely king are just friends who have been together since the urination. They are cousins, and they will also be husband and wife in the future. If you are so separated, , what should we do in the future!"
His words seemed relaxed, but they actually implied something. Qingya was speechless and didn't want to say anything more. She glanced at her mother on the seat from the corner of her eye, raised the corners of her lips and smiled: "The king said Yes! Qingya will keep it in mind."
"Well, uncle, aunt, Wulu won't stay any longer. We will have tea with uncle another day. Today, we will arrange for my sister to stay!" He said and stood up.
"Lu'er is leaving now? Let's go after the tea!" Li Shi glanced at the two stacks of tea on the table and said.
"Just take it and eat it on the way, so as not to waste it."
"Hahaha, you kid is still so frugal, okay, Xiu Yin, just take the paper bag."
Wanyan Yong was so happy that he opened his mouth from ear to ear, kicked his feet with interest and replied: "Yes! Wulu saved a lot, so he had extra money to buy more clothes and makeup for Qingya. Now, uncle, look at it. I have worn these shoes for four years and they are still as good as ever."
"The lonely king has to suffer a little. It doesn't matter if he uses old things. We can't let the lonely king's wife, children and old people have to suffer a little!"
Everyone was secretly happy when they heard his joke, and several people walked to the door of the house with their servants holding umbrellas.
Gongren leaned forward, slowly adjusted Qingya's makeup and hair, and said: "Qingya, although the national government is not far from the Li family, it is the land of the imperial gate. You must be careful in your words and deeds during this trip, and I will obey you in everything." Do you know the arrangement between my cousin and my sister-in-law?"
She lowered her head slightly and agreed: "I understand, my daughter. Mother must take good care of her body. You must not take it lightly when you are pregnant."
Li Shi and Wanyan Yong walked ahead and stopped by the carriage rail.
"Luer, Qingya is entrusted to you. After she enters the house, you must control her temper. An elder brother is like a father. When you discipline her, treat her like a daughter."
"Uncle, don't worry, Wulu will take good care of my sister."
Li Shi lowered his voice and leaned into his ear: "During this period, the two of you must regain your feelings from the past."
Wan Yanyong already understood what he said. He lowered his head and smiled: "That's right! Wulu also has this intention. He must get along well with his sister as he did when he was a child."
He acted steadily and solemnly, and Li Shi was full of praise: "Good, good, Lu'er, you are so calm and sensible, just like the previous king. When you were a child, your mother said that you have a strange appearance, and you will be very valuable in the future. Looking at you, you are indeed He is a man of great wisdom in everything he does and says. If my rebellious daughter marries you, she will be very lucky!"
"Uncle's ridiculous praise, Wulu is too ashamed to deserve it!"
After speaking, the uncle and nephew looked at each other and laughed happily. After a while, Wanyan Yong waved to Qingya and said: "Qingya, let's set off!"
She reluctantly said goodbye to her mother, then lifted up her skirt and walked towards Wanyanyong. When she got on the carriage, he was worried that she was too small to get in, so he stretched out his hand to hold her. She hesitated for a while and then slowly and timidly stretched out her small hand to put it on her. His generous palms felt wide and warm for a moment.
What he held was her cold, crisp hands, and he asked softly: "Ya'er, why are your hands so cold?"
"Maybe it's because of the cold wind, it doesn't matter!"
The two of them entered the carriage together. Qingya lifted the curtain and looked at Gongren in front of the mansion. She looked up at her under the paper umbrella and smiled. In the cold wind, she stood under the carriage in a cyan-colored skirt. , her thin eyebrows were not raised, her eyes were full of reluctance, but the corners of her lips were raised against her will, and she gently told her: "Qingya, it's cold out here, so wear thicker clothes."
She nodded obediently and said yes. The moment she put down the curtain, her heart hurt like a needle pricking her.
She said to herself: "Sister, I don't understand how you feel. It's just that Qingya can no longer be willful!"
She felt more and more uncomfortable, so she lowered her head and remained silent. Then she caught a glimpse of the paper lantern and reached out to pick it up and look at it.
"Kui Ke left it for you, do you like it?"
Wan Yanyong tentatively talked to her, but she didn't want to pay attention to him at all. She just sat holding the lantern, thinking about it.
