Senior sister, have you sold swords today?

Chapter 66 The Emperor's Marriage
The eyeliner informed Xia Shuyan of the observed situation one by one, and Xia Shuyan was particularly happy.

As long as Shiyi stays away from Fushen, Fushen, who is hit hard, will definitely give up.

At this time, it is the perfect opportunity.That's right, she can ask her father for a marriage now that she has grown hair.

Her father doted on her so much that even if he ordered her to get married, the Prime Minister's Mansion would not disobey her.

She really couldn't wait any longer. She was determined to make Fu Shen her consort, not to mention the previous advice from the eldest princess. After all, the eldest sister had gone through such a ridiculous scene when she took a fancy to the proton sent from Mobei Snow Country. Yun Que entered the princess's house and turned into a faceless one, so the eldest sister was not qualified to persuade her.

So it didn't take long for Xia Shuyan to get the emperor to agree to his youngest daughter's request, and even made the marriage arrangements in person in front of all the civil and military officials at the court meeting.

Even though Prime Minister Fu knew that his youngest son had no interest in the third princess, he could only thank him for his kindness.

As soon as Prime Minister Fu returned home, he explained the matter to his youngest son.

Fu Shen was just wondering why he was ignored by Shi Yi, but when he heard the thunderous news, he immediately exploded and said angrily: "Don't you know that I hate Xia Shuyan so much? Why do you want to marry me suddenly? What is the difference between asking me to marry that shrew and sending me to the sea of ​​fire?"

Prime Minister Fu also sighed in embarrassment: "The emperor offered me the marriage in public, but he didn't give me the right to refuse."

Fu Shen's eyes turned red and he said firmly: "Father, you are afraid of offending the royal family, but I am not! If the emperor forces me, then I can only resist!"

Fu Chengxian hurriedly stopped him in anger: "If you resist the order, it means that the entire Prime Minister's Palace is disobeying the emperor's order! I know you don't like the third princess, but she is the emperor's favored youngest daughter. Excluding your personal opinion, this is true It is a beautiful marriage that the whole country celebrates."

"Why? My attitude is so clear, and almost everyone can see that I avoid her, but I still end up marrying her?" A very bitter smile appeared on Fu Shen's lips.

Why did he choose to be married at this juncture?

Fu Shen's heart sank, and he couldn't help but suspect that Shi Yi's sudden coldness towards him and the emperor's decree to grant the marriage were all related to the third princess Xia Shuyan.

Fu Shen wanted the emperor to take back the decree. He couldn't marry a woman he didn't love. He already had his heart set on him, but he couldn't even get out of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

His father, brother and others put him under house arrest.

My elder brother, who has entered the official career, persuaded me earnestly: "Brother, we used to turn a blind eye to your mischief, but this matter is not trivial. Even if you are reluctant in every way, you must accept the engagement."

Fu Shen was in trouble, but his mother, the only one who could understand him, could not help him. She could only give him gentle guidance when delivering food.

"My mother understands that you are different from your brothers. You will only marry one true love in your life. But if the third princess does not fall in love with you, your father and I will not veto such a small wish. But fate is ruthless. In life, there are often too many dangerous roads that we have to bravely face without being willing to do so.”

Fushen couldn't listen to everyone's persuasion. He asked everyone to let him out, but got no response.

Soon, the news of this marriage spread in the capital.

The emperor even chose a mansion as the residence of the third princess and his future prince-in-law, and sent a large sum of money to the prime minister's house, which showed that the third princess was backed by the treasury and had strong financial resources. She did not want anything external to Fu Shen, but she only wanted this person. .

In this way, marrying the third princess became an established fact. Even Fu Shen knew that there was no room for resistance at the moment, so Prime Minister Fu let her go.When Fu Shen stepped out of the Prime Minister's Mansion again, he felt that the blue sky was so gloomy that it made him breathe quickly and his vision blurred.

Along the way, people congratulated him from time to time, some sincerely, some envious, and some sarcastic.

Fu Shen turned a deaf ear, but no matter what the other party's intentions were, these words entered his ears, like needle pricks. He covered his ears in pain and just strode to the inn where Shi Yi was staying.

But she's not at the inn.

Fu Shen hurriedly rushed to Yiming Pavilion, and just saw the person he had been longing for.

He hadn't had a good sleep for many days, his eyes were red and swollen, and his lips were chapped. He used to be a coquettish and handsome young man in the eyes of others, but now he seemed to have lost his soul, and his whole body was covered with fatigue.

Even if Fu Shen tried to scratch his head, he still couldn't figure out why they ended up in this situation.

It was clear that half a month ago, she was smiling at him, with soft ripples in her smart eyes, but now she turned a blind eye to him, treating him like air, not even giving him a look.

He still remembered the last time we said goodbye, he said: "I will wait for your answer. If you insist on staying silent, then I can only use my own way to make you speak."

But it seems that even if she opens her mouth now, they can't go back to the past.

Shi Yi had heard some rumors in the city that her existence was a huge threat to the third princess. Since the threat could not be eliminated, the princess could indeed do something unethical and forcibly bind Fu Shen to her side.

She was not stupid. She could have guessed with her head that Fu Shen was given a marriage at this time and that the third princess had definitely turned a deaf ear to the emperor.

The warning of that day's farewell still rings in her ears. As a commoner, she can't defeat the third princess. Drawing a clear line early may seem cowardly to others, but this is the only way for Mingzhe to protect herself and Chunqing Yiming Pavilion. In the face of the cruel reality, she bows her head. It is a kind of sobriety, which is to retreat and wait for the opportunity of change.

Fu Shen's dark eyes regained some brilliance when he saw Shi Yi. He opened his lips slightly and said in a hoarse voice: "The Emperor has issued a decree for me to marry the third princess. I..."

He paused again. During the days when he was locked up in the Prime Minister's Mansion, he had been holding back what he wanted to say to her.

But when they actually met, all his words disappeared.He wanted to ask her what she thought about this matter. He also wanted to take her far away. He also wanted to confess to her. He hadn't said a word that he liked her yet.

Shi Yi pinched the palm of his hand with his hanging fingers, forcing himself to keep a calm and collected expression, and replied with two words "congratulations" in a steady tone.

But these two words were the last words Fu Shen wanted to hear. The ends of his eyes turned red again, and he continued: "I don't like her. I have never liked her. Marrying her is not what I want at all." , I was forced.”

Shi Yi avoided the other party's hot gaze without leaving a trace, and replied softly: "But the third princess likes you, even madly in love."

Fu Shen clenched his fists, his voice full of anger: "So what? If she likes me, do I have to like her? Do I have to marry her? Why should I give in, why should my life be ruined? In this unhappy marriage!”

Shi Yi's face was startled, she didn't expect Fu Shen's reaction to be so strong. How much he disliked Xia Shuyan and how much he resisted this engagement!
But destiny cannot be violated, and the royal family is also not something Fu Shen can fight against. Even if she feels sour and depressed, not only can she not help him with anything, but she also has to keep her distance from him.

However, at this moment, Fu Shen actually confessed to her!
