Indecisiveness leads to disaster.
Listening to Yi Qingxin lying in his arms and talking about their marriage, five words flashed in Mei Yuanchen's mind: cut the mess with a sharp knife.
He held her waist and pushed her away with a little force.
Although it is a bit unbearable, it has to be done.
"Qingxin, I... you listen to me first, okay?"
Thinking of what he was about to say, Mei Yuanchen was worried that she wouldn't be able to bear it, so he didn't dare to take his hand back, but moved it from her waist to her shoulder.
You are a kind-hearted person, but you are so incompetent that you cannot take care of everything.
Yi Qingxin thought that she had asked her brother to ask for help from her grandfather. With his nature, he would certainly do it once he had promised. And the Yi and Mei families have always been close, and Grandpa proposed marriage in person, so he had no reason to refuse.
"He was married to the princess and Miss Haitang before, but now Miss Haitang is no longer married. I am not an unreasonable person. If brother Yuanchen insists on marrying the princess, let him."
She never expected that Mei Yuanchen straightened his face, showing a hint of shame, and said softly: "Qingxin, I... let's be good brothers and sisters who love each other, okay?"
"Well, haven't I...haven't I always called you 'Brother Yuanchen'?" Yi Qingxin lowered her head and whispered, "If you want to call me 'Sister Qingxin' or something like that, I didn't tell you No. Once the alliance meeting here is over, you can follow us back to Qingzhou, okay?"
Her voice is soft and sticky, no less beautiful than the most beautiful voice of silk and bamboo in the world. Although it is not intended to titillate, it has moved people's hearts.
In terms of appearance, Yi Qingxin is worthy of the beauty and beauty of the country and the beauty of the country; in terms of family background, she is the only daughter of the Yi family in Qingzhou and the keeper of the "Three Treasures of the Yi Family"; in terms of origin, the Mei family, Prince Jia's Mansion, and Yufeng Escort Bureau are all It can be said that friendship is a matter of life and death; in terms of love, Yi Qingxin is the only woman who takes the initiative to express her love for Mei Yuanchen.
"How could I hurt her? How could I bear to hurt her?"
Mei Yuanchen gritted his teeth, burst into tears, and instantly felt ashamed.
"There are many people in the world who have betrayed me. They treat me as lovingly as they do, but only three or four children. Do I want to hurt her, betray her, and reject her?"
Seeing that her husband was holding her shoulders and was silent for a long time, Yi Qingxin slowly raised her head. The dim light shone, revealing a pure face, and her eyes were shining like stars in the dark night.
"Brother Yuanchen, you...why are you crying?"
The candlestick was ten feet away, so Yi Qingxin didn't see him crying, but his tears fell on the back of her hand.
A faint fragrance hit her, and she took out the brocade handkerchief that was close to her body and was about to wipe his tears.
"Qingxin, I can't marry you."
Mei Yuanchen's voice was very low, but it could pierce the silence of the night and penetrate people's souls. His tears were so hot, but his words were colder than ice.
"Qingxin, I'm sorry, I...I can't marry you."
Yi Qingxin's hands froze in mid-air and she looked at him in surprise, feeling a little dazed for a moment.
"Qingxin... It's my fault. I... It's my fault."
... ...
Xia Chengxuan put the thick stack of letters back into the box. At this time, his face was covered with tears.
He knew that his sister loved Mei Yuanchen, but he didn't expect that she would love her so deeply.
"Yiyi, I'm sorry, brother, I'm sorry for you!"
If there was another chance, he would not make that deal with Zhang Suiguang, even if his mother threatened her with death.
"Yiyi, brother doesn't want to... I don't want to send people to kill Uncle Mei and the others, and I don't want to either! But mother, she used her own life to force me... If you were brother , what will you do? I don’t want to... I don’t want to kill Uncle Mei, I don’t want Yuan Chen to become an orphan, I don’t want to! I don’t want to either!”
After Ling Chengzhai came out, his heart had been given to the ghost.
"My throne was obtained with my conscience and pure heart!" He clenched his fists unwillingly, bit his lips, and burst into tears.
After reading the letter in the box, he realized that not only was he living a hard life, but his sister was also suffering every day, and all her hopes were for Mei Yuanchen alone.
"If I asked Hu Xiwei to defend the Mei Mansion, plus the more than 300 people from the Yanzhengsi Yamen, the Nine Halls would not be able to be attacked, and the Mei family would not be wiped out. I really... I'm so obsessed that I insist on being this bullshit emperor! Brother, I regret it so much... I'm the one who hurt you, Yuan Chen, and you all!"
"Brother, I don't care about anything! I just want to detoxify you and let you wake up and live the rest of your life peacefully and happily. If you don't want to be locked in this mansion, my brother will let you out. You can forget it. If you don’t want to be a princess anymore, I’ll leave it up to you, okay? Don’t you want to borrow money like Zi Teng and Lily to go to Kuaizhou to find Yuan Chen? Brother will give you money, how much do you want, and where do you want to go? Are you okay? In this world, I only have you... Yiyi, brother, you are the only one. Nothing will happen to you! Nothing will happen to you! If you have any problems, brother will definitely let many, many, many people I’ll be buried with you! My brother wants to be a good emperor, and he doesn’t want to kill people indiscriminately, so please wake up, okay?”
Xia Chengyi was lying on the mattress, his breath weak, as if he had fallen into a long sleep without boundaries.
... ...
The words Mei Yuanchen said were something Yi Qingxin never expected.
She thought that the two of them were in love with each other, and that they were only separated by a marriage certificate.
"Brother Yuanchen, what's wrong with you? Is there something wrong with me that makes you unhappy?" Yi Qingxin forced out a flattering smile and said softly, "I... I used to be too stupid. You're so cool, I'll listen to you in everything from now on, okay?"
She was held in the palms of the Yi family, and she was begging softly like a young lady who had made a mistake. Mei Yuanchen felt distressed, and suddenly slapped her right face.
"Snapped!"
Yun Xiaoyang, who was hiding in the house, heard the crisp sound, felt a pain in her heart, and wanted to run out, but finally held back.
Mei Yuanchen was about to stretch out his left hand to hit again, but Yi Qingxin rushed into his arms, protected his left face with her forehead, and cried softly: "I won't let you hit... Wuwu... ...I don’t want you to hit yourself!”
She grabbed his left hand with one hand and stroked his right cheek with the other, saying softly: "Brother Yuanchen, I know that you are engaged to the princess and Miss Haitang. I am not an unreasonable person, you..." ..I didn’t say that I didn’t want to be a concubine. I don’t care about my title, I just hope that you... don’t belittle me.”
At that time in Dahua, women all abided by women's ways, even female killers like Hongchen who licked blood with their swords were no exception. Yi Qingxin was treasonous by saying this.
"Anyway, I will marry you unless you marry me in this life. If you don't marry me, I will become a monk and become a nun. I will always be with you in this lifetime!"
She said this softly, but Mei Yuanchen felt as if someone had slapped her hard on the chest, and she was about to suffocate.
How can you endure the kindness of a beautiful woman?
