Invincible son

Chapter 865 864 [Broken Wings or Metamorphosis]

In a room on the east side of the courtyard.

Princess Qinghe retreated from the maid, turned around, walked to the cloisonné enamel smoked cage and sat down, looking at Xu Churong's distracted face beside her, hesitated to speak, and finally could only let out a soft sigh.

"Sister, I'm fine." Xu Churong forced a smile.

Princess Qinghe has persuaded her so many times during this period, but Xu Churong is still unwilling to go home. She doesn't know whether the girl beside her is heartbroken because of the Jiangling incident, or she can't let go of her love for Pei Yue, or it's a combination of both. .After hearing the news that the eldest prince of Beiliang would continue to fulfill his marriage contract, she no longer considered her situation, and only wanted to persuade Xu Churong.

In any case, it will be difficult for her to find a safe and secure situation in the future if she goes northward without knowing why.

Princess Qinghe's heart was full of worries, and she didn't dare to say too blunt words, so she could only say euphemistically: "Churong, I heard that the Marquis of Zhongshan left the city today to meet the daughter of the Gu family."

Xu Churong nodded and said: "Yes, he got engaged to Ye Gu at the beginning of the year, and the marriage will be at the end of the year."

he?
Princess Qinghe smiled wryly, and now she even changed her title, which shows that Xu Churong has made up her mind.

Looking at the bitter smile on the face of the princess sister, Xu Churong immediately realized the problem, but she didn't try to explain it, but said plainly: "Sister, Peihou told me that the southern family... what are those people's plans?" , He didn't hide anything from me. I know he doesn't have that kind of thought about me, and he already has a lot of women in his heart, so he doesn't think there is a place for me. "

Princess Qinghe couldn't hide her shock, not only because of Xu Churong's indifference and directness at the moment, but also a hint of ominousness.

"Chu Rong, don't do stupid things..."

"Sister, I'm not that fragile. I just think that although Pei Hou is an enemy, he is more open and aboveboard than most people, which is enough to prove that my vision is not bad at all."

At this moment, Xu Churong didn't look like a girl who was only 16 years old. She poured out her thoughts openly, but based on Princess Qinghe's understanding of her, what she wanted to express was definitely not a private matter of the relationship between a man and a woman.

In fact, Princess Qinghe can fully understand the throbbing in Xu Churong's heart. If the grievances between Liang and Zhou are ignored, a young and promising man like Pei Yue would be easy to attract attention.Especially Xu Churong has seen many of his deeds with his own eyes, such as the peace talks between the two dynasties, the wheel battle at the Sifang Pavilion, the Donglin Wenhui, and even the war some time ago.

Xu Churong's vision is extremely high, waiting for an idle man can't attract her attention at all, but Pei Yue is so outstanding, and coupled with the betrayal of her relatives outside Jiangling City, it is not unexpected that she fell into that kind of love, but at this moment her tone and expression It is enough to show that she has some decisive thoughts in her heart.

After hesitating for a long time, Princess Qinghe said softly: "Churong, do you really plan to go to Beiliang Capital with him?"

Xu Churong shook his head, and said with a strange expression: "Sister, Pei Yue is just a courtier, and can only marry two ordinary wives at most."

Princess Qinghe said: "Yes."

A sneer appeared on Xu Churong's face, and he said slowly: "He told me that my father wanted me to be by his side so that those aristocratic families would have a more relaxed room in the future. In fact, my father thought so too. In the name of the Xu family of Qinghe, I openly asked me to be Pei Yue's concubine, so that he and even the whole Xu family's face would be lost. Only like now, let me follow Pei Yue indistinctly, without affecting the Qinghe Xu family's Qingyu can also keep a way out in the future."

She paused, and said calmly: "When the day when Beiliang captures the southern border, Pei Yue must give those Nandu families a good result, who would make the jewel in the palm of the head of the Xu family follow him willingly and shamelessly. "

Hearing the decisive meaning in these words, Princess Qinghe was startled, and said in a trembling voice: "Churong, don't think wildly, Mr. Shoufu must not have such thoughts."

Xu Churong looked up at her, and said with a sad smile: "Even though the change in Jiangling was a helpless move, but the peace talks between the two dynasties have started again during this period, why didn't he just send someone to pick me up? Pretending to be concerned?"

Princess Qinghe was speechless.

Xu Churong changed the subject and said: "Actually, I can understand my father's difficulties. For a family like the Qinghe Xu family that has been passed down for thousands of years, what is the fate of a mere woman compared to the future of the entire family? The pressure on the father He is older than me, and the expectations of many elders in the clan and other families are as heavy as mountains, even if he really loves my daughter, many things cannot be decided according to his thoughts."

Princess Qinghe couldn't help thinking about her own marriage. After hesitating for a moment, she plucked up her courage and said, "In that case, you can go north with me. When I arrive at Beijing in Beiliang, I will personally look for the Marquis of Zhongshan. No matter what, I will find a good home for you."

Xu Churong held her hand, shook her head slightly, and said softly: "Sister, I've already made up my mind, I can only send you here."

Princess Qinghe understood the meaning of this sentence, but she couldn't be happy at all. Even if she was not good at guessing people's hearts, she could still realize that some terrible changes had taken place in the girl.

"Churong, I...I'll write to Xu Shoufu immediately."

"No need, after my sister leaves Puqi, I will return to Jian'an. Pei Yue personally promised not to embarrass me, and my father will definitely not refuse me to go back in the open. The Qinghe Xu family must show some face."

Xu Churong smiled at her, but there was no smile in his eyes.

Even though the room was very warm, Princess Qinghe only felt a chill in her heart.

She is an extremely gentle and kind person, looking at the young girl who seems to have matured overnight in front of her, she can't say a word of objection.

……

In the flower hall.

Taohua's crescent-like eyes seemed to be unable to open, her head was bouncing up and down, her cheeks were already blushing, she let out a cute laugh from time to time, occasionally raised her wine cup and said, "Master, cheers! "

Pei Yue on the other side was not much better, although he was not as drunk as Tao Hua, his clear and calm eyes were full of drunkenness in the past, and he laughed loudly: "Cheers!"

The dishes on the table did not move much, only more than a dozen empty jugs were added.

Gu Zhen did not expect such a situation to happen, and what surprised her even more was that Pei Yue rarely wanted to get drunk like he did tonight.She had heard from Gu Fan before that Pei Yue had a good capacity for alcohol and rarely indulged himself.

"Sister Ye, is the banquet over here?" A worried look appeared on Gu Zhen's face.

Ye Qi looked at Pei Yue who kept drinking by himself, and sighed softly: "Let him get drunk, in fact, he feels very uncomfortable."
