Chapter 86 (7.19)
"Your Majesty, why do I still talk to you here at this moment?"
Wei Yun took a sip of tea and said, "Your Majesty has preserved Yao Yong and robbed Huajing, but I can still sit here calmly, why does Your Majesty think it is?"
Zhao Yue frowned, and Wei Yun looked up at him: "If it wasn't to destroy Bei Di, I wouldn't be sitting here. I sacrificed so much for Yao Yong's head, but if it wasn't for the great cause of destroying Bei Di, would I be able to bear it? Giving him an extra breath would be humiliating to me."
"Wei Yun," Zhao Yue insisted, "think about the people."
"Do you really care about me?" Wei Yun raised the corners of his lips: "I found that, like His Majesty Chunde, you always like to use the common people as bargaining chips to talk to me."
Zhao Yue didn't speak, Wei Yun's expression was calm and firm, and he couldn't bear to turn around. Zhao Yue knew very well that Wei Yun only left two paths for him now.
Either beat Bei Di to the end, or he handed over to Yao Yong.
But he couldn't hand over Yao Yong at this time. Once he handed over this person, he would immediately lose the balance of Wei Yun, Chu Linyang and others.
If he doesn't hand it over, then Wei Yun won't let it go, the civil war is about to break out, and the situation he finally settled down will be in jeopardy again.
In the past, he could not care, because he was not the one sitting in the monarch's position. However, it is different now. He is sitting in the seat, and his fate is closely related to this country. Wei Yun's bare feet are not afraid of wearing shoes, but he can't be as decisive as Wei Yun is now.
Zhao Yue stared at Wei Yun: "Wei Yun, you are forcing me so much now, aren't you afraid of the future?"
Wei Yun smiled softly: "Your Majesty is a sage of the ages. He knows people and makes good use of them, and he must understand my requirements. As long as I meet my requirements, I will not have any resentment. Your Majesty is not someone who can't distinguish right from wrong. What am I afraid of in the future? ?"
Zhao Yue's eyes flashed, as if remembering something. After a long time, he finally arrived and said, "I think about it..."
"Wait for news from Your Majesty."
Wei Yun stood up, saluted respectfully, and withdrew after receiving permission from Zhao Yue.
After watching Wei Yun leave, Zhao Yue's expression slowly cooled down, he kicked the table abruptly, got up and went to Qifeng Palace.
The eldest princess had just sent off Chu Yu, and was sitting in front of the bronze mirror to remove her makeup. Zhao Yue saw the man from a distance, and his expression softened. He came behind her, took the comb from her hand, and said gently, "His Royal Highness, I'll come."
The eldest princess did not speak, and he still held the comb in his hand.
He looked gentle and pampered, as if he was still in the princess' mansion.
"I remember when you first came to the Princess Mansion, you actually knew nothing. I didn't plan on asking you to do anything, but one day you suddenly volunteered and told me to comb my hair. That day was the first time you gave Are you combing your hair?"
The eldest princess looked at the person in the bronze mirror and slowly recounted the beginning.
Zhao Yue listened to these words, and all the previous violent anger slowly dissipated from his eyes, and he replied softly: "Yes, for the first time, did it hurt you?"
The eldest princess laughed softly: "Yes, no one has ever been so clumsy."
"Then you let me comb my hair?"
"You like it, I spoil you, so what?"
Zhao Yue paused for a moment, and after a while, he smiled bitterly: "His Royal Highness is really flattering to say that. It's just that I never knew whether His Highness favored me or Mei Hanxue?"
The eldest princess was silent for a moment. If he asked this question in the eldest princess mansion, she would probably answer him the truth.
She loves him, always has been.
The reason why Mei Hanxue was selected in the selection of the concubine back then was only because the first time she saw him, she found that this person really resembled her little A Yue.
At that time, she didn't have any other feelings, but she always loved him. After all, she wanted to choose a concubine, it is better to choose someone like him.
Until later when he grew up, he came to her side, born so outstanding and arrogant. At that time, she was already a widow with a child, and she only vaguely discovered that the man she thought was the best, when he was a child, she thought it was her little Ayue; when he grew up, she thought it was the King Qin Shizi.
The years have made her feelings gradually become strong and hot, and she has never avoided it. If he had asked, she must have answered like this. But now that he asked, she was unwilling to tell her the answer. So after a long time, she slowly said, "Ayue, I spoiled you since I was a child."
"What kind of feelings do I want, doesn't the eldest princess understand?"
Zhao Yue said calmly, "Princess has always taken care of the junior, but I feel that I am not willing to be this junior."
The eldest princess was silent, Zhao Yue played with her head, pinched her chin, turned her head, faced herself, covered her eyes, and said, "I really want to know, what's wrong with me?"
The eldest princess looked at him, and Zhao Yue looked at her quietly: "There are so many faces in the eldest princess mansion, why can you touch everyone, but I can never be your guest?"
"Zhao Yue," she said calmly, "I haven't summoned Mian Shou for three years."
Three years ago was the first time she knew that she liked him, and it was the first time she told him that she liked him.
However, she kept this time firmly in her heart, but Zhao Yue didn't remember anything. He smiled lightly: "Isn't there still a lot of people around you?"
"His Royal Highness," his face approached the eldest princess: "Today Wei Yun asked me to beat Bei Di and let him go to the north. The tiger returns to the mountain, do you think I will let it go?"
The eldest princess didn't speak. After a long time, she said slowly, "Don't let it go."
Zhao Yue was stunned for a moment, and he looked at her in surprise: "Why?"
"You've already said that letting him go back is like a tiger returning to the mountain. Even if Da Chu Jiangshan cuts off his arm, he will never let someone who threatens you like this survive."
Zhao Yue didn't speak, his hands trembled slightly. The eldest princess looked at the mirror and said calmly, "Ayue."
"No matter what," she said hoarsely, "I will protect you."
Zhao Yue's hand holding her hair tightened slightly. He suddenly felt that when he was still young, this elder sister stood in front of him, shielding him from the wind and rain at all costs.
"I know you don't believe it."
The eldest princess pretended to be calm, but Zhao Yue clearly heard some grievances from her tone: "But I liked Xiaohua so much back then, didn't I also send him away for you?"
Zhao Yue's thoughts floated slightly, and he remembered in a trance that when he lived in the eldest princess' house, he had a conflict with the prince who was being favored over a kitten. That kitten was the princess' favorite cat when she was young. She started feeding it as a milk cat and has been raising it since then. In order to protect him from being bullied by the prince, the eldest princess gave the cat to the prince to make amends, but after a while, news of the cat's death came. The eldest princess hid in her room and cried for a day. , I was afraid that he would find out and lied to him that sand got into his eyes.
Thinking of this incident, Zhao Yue's heart trembled slightly.
He suddenly felt that the current Da Chu was like the cat back then. The eldest princess said it was okay and didn't care, but when Da Chu really died like that cat, when civil strife broke out, the people were displaced, and Bei Di was wanton humiliation, the eldest princess might still hide and cry like when she was young, and she was afraid. he saw.
He looked down at her, his heart changing.
He was terrified of her tears, especially when she cried for him.
After a long time, he sighed softly, stood behind the mirror, and hugged the person in front of him.
"If I really did this, would you be sad? When you protected Wei Yun, didn't you see his talent?"
"In the past, you always worried that Da Chu would take you for a kiss, and you always thought that one day Da Chu would be able to pacify Beidi," he smiled at her, lowered his head and kissed her on the cheek: "Little aunt, I will send you Give you."
The eldest princess was stunned for a moment, and seemed surprised. She looked up at him like a young girl, and Zhao Yue's heart fluttered with that gaze.
He stared at her, raised his hand to touch her lips, and made a hoarse voice.
"I want to serve you well," he said with lust in his voice: "You are comfortable, and I am happy, so I promised Wei Yun, do you think it's okay?"
The eldest princess didn't speak, she seemed to be struggling.
Between him and Da Chu, the same weight in her heart.
This realization made Zhao Yue happy. He suppressed his emotions, kissed it carefully, and said in a hoarse voice, "Don't think about it, I will make this decision for you."
"Little aunt, you have me in your heart, I am very happy."
The eldest princess didn't speak, she closed her eyes and slowly clenched her fists.
This person was covering her, ups and downs, she gritted her teeth and closed her eyes tightly.
It was never like this when they were most in love. Now they are facing each other with swords, but they are very close.
On the other side, Chu Yu was on the carriage, quietly waiting for Wei Yun.
She pondered what the eldest princess said just now.
"Zhao Yue has always been soft and not hard. I will pretend to fall in love with him and wait for the opportunity by his side. He is not in the right mood. If I follow his wishes, I will definitely be a demon concubine in the future. The emperor has no virtue, and you have a chance. ."
"Zhao Yue is very thoughtful. His Highness approached him with such thoughts. What if he pretended not to be?"
"I was wrong," the eldest princess smiled bitterly: "I'm not pretending to be in love with him, so there's nothing to pretend to be like or not like."
It's true, how could it be false?
Chu Yu lowered her eyes and touched the lines on her clothes.
This is Wei Yun's habit, and she doesn't know when she got it. The sound of footsteps came from outside, and after a while, the curtain of the car was suddenly lifted, revealing Wei Yun's handsome and noble face.
When he saw her, he looked relieved.
"Sister-in-law," he said softly, "you'll be fine."
