Concubine all over the world

Chapter 98
"Sister——" Hua Zehao, a clever ghost, saw Hua Man'er's attitude loosen, and immediately took Hua Man'er's arm and acted like a baby, "Every birthday, I will accept whatever gift you give me. This year, I want to ask you for a gift, that is, please accompany me back to Yidu for the New Year. If you agree, it will be the best gift."

Hua Man'er rolled his eyes at him, and smiled helplessly: "It's always best to take the opportunity to blackmail you, okay, then I'll do it for you. However, you have to send someone to bring a letter to the country of Sa, and explain the situation to Maya. In the spring of next year, I will go to Sa to fulfill my marriage contract."

"No!" Hua Zehao said solemnly, "My elder sister is married, a majestic barbarian princess, how can I marry someone casually by myself. In the spring of the coming year, if Namoye wants to marry you, he must prepare a generous gift and formally propose marriage to the palace. Only when the younger brother agrees can he marry you off in a glorious manner! Sister, getting married is a big event, don't be hasty, otherwise, he won't cherish you after getting married. "

Hua Man'er heard this, lowered her head and thought for a while, then raised her eyes and said, "You're right. It's true. But, who taught you to say that? You're only 12 years old, so you know so much?"

Hua Zehao pouted and said: "Looking at the world, there are a lot of people who get married at the age of twelve or thirteen. There are girls vying to marry me, why don't I understand? My sister underestimates my brother."

Hua Man'er stared at him burningly, without blinking, eyes full of suspicion.

Hua Zehao squinted his fox eyes guiltyly and smiled: "It's good that my sister promises, I'll rest early, see you tomorrow."

He turned around, oiled the soles of his feet and slipped away quickly.

Hua Man'er went to close the door, and suddenly saw that the window of the opposite wing was open, Su Xiaofeng was under the lamp, holding a robe and threading with flying needles, her pretty side profile showed a bit of distress in her earnestness.A trace of pity suddenly emerged in her heart.

The cyan white velvet robe was obviously for Hua Zehao.

It's really not easy for a chivalrous woman who wields knives and guns on weekdays to be willing to take up needles as a female worker for Hua Zehao.Thinking of the last time, in order to protect Hua Man'er, she was seriously injured, and it took several months to recover, but she didn't even complain.

In front of Hua Man'er, he neither deliberately asks for credit, nor keeps him at a distance, but speaks and acts according to his true temperament, which is really commendable.Now, he is silently making robes for Hua Zehao again, presumably in a hurry to give Hua Zehao a birthday present.

Although Su Xiaofeng also showed a strong jealousy towards the matter of the little princess, but she was angry when she was angry, but she didn't seriously obstruct or spoil the big things.Therefore, it can be seen that Su Xiaofeng is a straightforward but sensible girl.

This kind of Su Xiaofeng made Hua Man'er quite fond of it.At least, she could tell that Su Xiaofeng really liked Hua Zehao.As the leader of the martial arts alliance, Su Huangyu was willing to work hard for Hua Zehao, and it must be because of her sister.

However, she doesn't want to care too much about Hua Zehao's marriage now.She gradually understood that Hua Zehao had grown up, he was a thoughtful and assertive young man, and it was a thankless task for her to speak up on his marriage.

Besides, the relationship matter originally depends on what she likes, and she doesn't really want to put pressure on him.

Therefore, after Hua Man'er paid Su Xiaofeng a glance, she silently closed the door.I thought that if there was a chance in the future, I would secretly help her.

Just as Hua Zehao walked to a corridor, a sword came out out of nowhere, and Li Muhan, who was hidden in the shadow, appeared and stopped him.

A pair of icy eyes filled with expectations and doubts, Hua Zehao knew what he cared about, and couldn't help saying: "Don't worry, Brother Huang, I've said everything according to what you taught me."

"Then did she agree?" Li Muhan asked eagerly.

"Yes, I agree." Hua Zehao nodded.

"That's good." Li Muhan's anxious face softened slightly, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, "It's only a matter of time, and when the time comes, we will always find a way to keep her."

Hua Zehao raised his unruly sword eyebrows: "Well, there is one thing that I agree with very much. Even if Maya wants to marry my sister, she can't just take her hand and leave. My sister is with us..., no! At least in my heart, It is a treasure in the hearts of the people all over the world. If you have a sister, won’t the Sa country be rich and strong? How can it be so easy for him to marry? Without a particularly sincere dowry, you must not agree to it!"

Li Muhan stared at Hua Zehao with a cold face, unable to agree.

In fact, he didn't think about whether getting Huaman'er would make the country rich and the people strong or not. He just thought secretly that even if Maya ceded the city and offered the most sincere dowry, he couldn't let Huaman'er marry her. Maya.

No one can take away the woman that Li Muhan believes in.

"Well," Li Muhan changed the subject, "Don't worry, I will take care of your 12th birthday the day after tomorrow. I know that I have hurt you when you were young, but please believe that it was not my fault." Originally, I will make up for you in the future, just like I will make up for your sister."

After Li Muhan finished speaking concisely, he turned around and strode away.

Hua Zehao stared blankly at Li Muhan's upright back, his heart was surging.This seemed to be the first time that Li Muhan had formally apologized to him personally.Such a serious matter at least represented Li Muhan's sincerity.

But Hua Zehao knew that this sincerity was partly due to Hua Man'er.

He thanked him, thanked him for keeping Hua Man'er for him.

That's all.

How much of this is just because he is his own brother?

Hua Zehao smiled sarcastically, and hurried back to the room with his hands behind his back.

The next day, Xiao Rui, the little princess, and Ren Yi, the new governor, warmly welcomed Li Muhan and the others.

Although Hua Man'er lived in Xuandu for two or three months, at that time she was full of hatred and only had the word "revenge" in her mind. When she met Xiao Jinyan, the most discussed topic was how to deal with Li Muhan. Enjoy the beautiful scenery of Xuanyue, taste the special food of Xuanyue, and enjoy the charming singing and dancing of Xuanyue.

And during the carnival for the next three days, the little princess kept pestering her and flattering her, taking her to eat all the delicious things and shopping for all the fun things.

The little princess is in charge of taking Hua Man'er and Su Xiaofeng to play.

Ren Yi was in charge of accompanying Li Muhan and Hua Haoze.

In fact, Li Muhan didn't need to make an order in person, the little princess had already racked her brains for Hua Zehao's birthday.From birthday banquets to singing and dancing, everything has been carefully selected.

She deliberately took Hua Man'er out for a stroll, and asked Hua Man'er to help her choose a birthday gift.

Time was running short, Hua Man'er thought of the gift Su Xiaofeng had prepared, and said to the little princess: "You can choose a gift that he can use and can carry with you. Jade pei, purse, sachet, or clothes are all fine." .He is a prince, so he has everything. It's just a souvenir."

Xiao Rui nodded: "That's right. However, this is too common, how can it touch his heart? The little prince is so brave, he should change it to something different."

Hua Man'er thought for a while, then said with a smile: "In other words, this princess has thought of a gift, and I'm afraid that the princess will not give it up."

Xiao Rui smiled and took Hua Man'er's hand and shook it: "I'm willing to give up, Your Royal Highness said. I'm going to give myself to him, what else is there to be reluctant to part with—"

The little princess started whining, her tender and sweet appearance melted Hua Man'er's heart.

Hua Man'er pursed her lips and smiled: "Then, you can give him your BMW 'Wuyun Treading Snow'."

"Dark cloud treading snow?" Xiao Rui asked in surprise.

She clicked her tongue secretly in her heart, this princess is really good, she is very knowledgeable.

This dark cloud rides on the snow, the whole body is black and shiny, and the four hooves are like snow, all of which are white.With a violent temperament, he really runs like dark clouds riding snow, and he is a famous horse outside the pass.

In fact, it was given to His Royal Highness Xiao Jinyan by Maya, the king of Sa, when the former emperor was still alive.After Xiao Jinyan's death, this Wuyun Taxue ran back to the palace by himself, was taken in by the little princess, and became her mount ever since.

Therefore, for Xiao Rui, this horse is not only a rare BMW, but also an ironclad proof of the friendship between Sa Kingdom and Xuanyue, and it is also a treasure in memory of his cousin Xiao Jinyan. How can he give it up?
"This princess knows that this famous horse outside the pass is hard to buy for you. But because of this, you are willing to give it to the little prince, which shows that your affection for him is more than anything else. Naturally, he can also be special. Remember you. In the future, with this BMW accompanying him through life and death, just like you accompany him through life and death, do you think he will fall in love with you?"

When Hua Man'er showed off her eloquence, few people could stop her.

Sure enough, Xiao Rui surrendered obediently, pursed his mouth and said: "Okay, then give my BMW to the little prince, I hope he likes it!"

Hua Man'er smiled sweetly, wrapped her arms around Xiao Rui's shoulders, and whispered in her ear, "Don't worry, he will like it. BMWs match heroes since ancient times. How can a young hero like Hao'er resist it?"

Su Xiaofeng at the side lowered her head when she heard the words, her disappointed expression couldn't be hidden.

Hua Man'er glanced at Guo Yun, smiled and took her hand and walked forward.Taking advantage of Xiao Rui's inattention, she whispered in Su Xiaofeng's ear, "Don't worry, he will definitely like the robe you made. It must be very handsome in it."

"Ah—" Su Xiaofeng didn't expect Hua Man'er to know about this, and she blushed down to her ears in an instant.

Hua Man'er winked at her slyly, smiled and took her by the arm.

The next day, Hua Zehao's birthday was indeed very lively.Not only the Dudu Mansion is celebrating, but even the streets and alleys of the entire Xuandu are celebrating.

Hua Zehao was really happy to receive Wuyun Taxue.For the robe made by Su Xiaofeng, Hua Zehao also expressed his gratitude.

Unexpectedly, Li Muhan also gave Hua Zehao a birthday present.This has never been done before.

"This is the Dragon Chanting Sword. I will give it to you today as a birthday present. A BMW is worthy of a hero, but without a sword, there seems to be something missing. Let Brother Huang complete it for you!"

Li Muhan walked up to Hua Zehao himself, and offered the Dragon Chanting Sword with one hand.

The scene was quiet, and everyone's eyes were focused on this place.

"No," Hua Zehao didn't dare to accept it, clasped his fists and said, "Brother Emperor, please forgive me, it's not that Hao'er is disrespectful. The world says that the one who sings the dragon sword wins the world. This is Your Majesty's sword. How dare I overstep it?" ? No matter what, the younger brother can’t say anything!”

Hua Man'er nodded slightly, pleased at Hua Zehao's sensibleness.

But unexpectedly, Li Muhan persisted, and the arm of the horizontal sword never let go.

"Take it, Hao'er. I don't believe in this evil. What is the saying that the one who wins the dragon sword wins the world? Even if there is such a saying. You are a barbarian prince, the heir to the throne, and it is not up to you to hold this sword." There is no presumption. Just hold it. Only by letting you hold this sword can you prove my sincerity. I only hope that from now on, you and my brothers will work together to govern the world well. In this world, there are half of me, and there are also others. half of you!"

Li Muhan's eyes were firm and open, staring at Hua Zehao persistently.

That gaze had a natural deterrent force, making Hua Zehao involuntarily stretch out his hand to meet it.

He never expected that Li Muhan would be willing to give him the Dragon Chanting Sword that he carried with him.

Although he knew that Li Muhan gifted the sword in order to get closer to him, but it was hard not to be moved by this intention alone.Because Li Muhan in the past was not even lazy to grant this kind of intention.

His arrogance, indifference and selfishness are obvious, and he doesn't bother to cover up.

Now this kind of contrast made Hua Man'er look sideways.

"Your Majesty was joking," she couldn't help standing up to stand in front of Hua Zehao, "how can Hao Er, how can he own half of the country? This country belongs to His Majesty, and the Dragon Chanting Sword also belongs to His Majesty. Hao'er dare not take it. You can't ask for it either. Your Majesty has kindly accepted it, please take it back."

The smile on Li Muhan's lips was slightly sad: "Maner, are you afraid that I will try to test you? No, I won't. I don't need to try. It's all out of sincerity, sincerity and reconciliation with the emperor, there is no other reason. Meaning. If the statement of half of the country is too heavy, I can take it back. But Hao’er must accept this gift. To exchange this Dragon Song Sword for half of the country, I actually took advantage of you, didn’t I?”

Hua Man'er heard the words, sighed softly, and then said to Hua Zehao: "Then accept it. From then on, if you brothers are of the same heart, the benefits will definitely cut through the gold. In this world, there is nothing to trouble you any more."

Therefore, Hua Zehao accepted the Dragon Yin Sword obediently.

Hua Man'er laughed and said, "You are either BMWs or swords. I didn't prepare any presents. Brother, don't take offense!"

Hua Zehao hurriedly said: "It's okay, it's okay, as long as my sister is willing to follow Hao'er back to Yidu for the New Year, Hao'er will be happier than anything else."

Two days later, Li Muhan led his army back to Yidu.

Then from Xuanyue to Yidu, it would take more than a month even if they traveled fast. Therefore, the so-called returning to Yidu for the New Year does not exist anymore.The New Year is actually spent on the road.It's nothing more than reunion drinking, dancing and singing, playing the piano and drinking orders, nothing else.

Back in Yidu, even the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month has passed, and it is the beginning of February in a blink of an eye.In February, the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, decorating the whole Yidu very beautifully.

Along the way, Li Muhan treated Hua Man'er and Hua Zehao with great courtesy and cared for them.As for Hua Man'er, he didn't dare to do it again, he was afraid that he would offend little brother Li again, and he was also afraid that the image he had worked so hard to build would be completely ruined.

So, he endured in every possible way and took good care of him all the way.

When he arrived in Yidu, Li Muhan was able to listen to Hua Man'er's opinion and let her live in the Xiaoyao Palace.

So three days later, when Li Muhan ordered Eunuch He to come to Xiaoyao Palace to announce the decree, when Hua Man'er was allowed to enter the palace, it was not easy for Hua Man'er to refuse.

After she entered the palace, Hua Man'er realized that the Shuangyun Palace had changed drastically.That area has doubled in size and turned into a double dwelling hall.

In addition to the sleeping hall, the main hall, and the side halls, the Shuangqi Hall has a small garden, a small stage, a small imperial dining room, a lotus pond, and a pavilion for enjoying the terrace.

The Shuangqi Hall has become a small palace inside the palace.

Li Muhan had already set up a sumptuous feast in the Tongxin Pavilion to invite Hua Man'er.

The location of the Tongxin Pavilion is very convenient, and you can see the lotus pond and the small stage.The melodious voice came from the small stage, and it was "The Peony Pavilion".

After Hua Man'er was seated, she couldn't help but curled her lips, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, these names are all so pretentious. What's 'Shuangqi Temple', what's 'Tongxin Pavilion', what' People can't help but laugh. It's really not like what a bloody war god like you, a cold-blooded emperor, is doing, but rather something that a sour scholar on the stage is good at."

Facing Hua Man'er's cynicism, Li Muhan did not show his usual fury, just stared at Hua Man'er, and said calmly: "It doesn't matter if you are sour or not, and I have never thought about it, because I did all this just to please you. .I thought that little girls would like these things, but it seems that you don't like them. Also, you are not an ordinary girl, how can you be like a human being? Then let me be sour!"

When Hua Man'er heard this, she was startled.There was nothing more to mock him.

"Your Majesty invited this princess here today just to visit the Shuangqi Palace?" She had no choice but to change the subject, unwilling to get entangled in emotional issues.

"It's not a 'visit', but to invite you to live with me!" Li Muhan went straight in, a small flame ignited in his deep icy eyes, "Maner, do you want to? I know your heart is hurt. Ruined that day The situation of the Frost Cloud Palace is still vivid in my mind, and every time I think about it, my heart aches. The collapsed Frost Cloud Palace has been rebuilt, and I have returned the broken little finger to you. Please forgive me. If you are willing to return to the Shuangqi Palace Hold on, I believe that soon, I can even return the lost child to you! Then we can start again, you say, okay?"

Hua Man'er stared at Li Muhan steadfastly, as Li Muhan said, revisiting the old place really made the past vivid in his memory.The piercing pain of that day is still unbearable to this day.

The corner of her mouth twitched, and she sneered: "Your Majesty's words are better than singing. Now, you are really a sensible person. You can understand everything at once, and completely forget all the previous muddled accounts. But I spent How could Man Er be the one you call and leave at will. Your Majesty, it is useless for you to say more, this princess only asks you a question, and you must answer it honestly."

"Excuse me." Li Muhan could only hold back his temper.

Hua Man'er quietly asked: "If it wasn't for this princess and Maya who testified against the Shi family's father and daughter for so many crimes in the Golden Luan Hall, if Shi Yirou hadn't betrayed you first, you would still do this for this princess today. Is there a lot of trouble? Will you chase after the country of Sa and cut off your finger to save it? Will you learn from the pain and build the Double Dwelling Palace? Will you be willing to give your Dragon Sword to your brother? Even though he gave up the entire dragon chair early in the morning Here's a seat for you. Will you?"

The speed of her speech suddenly accelerated, and a raging flame was burning in her phoenix eyes.You can't look back on the past, once you look back, the grievance can't be suppressed no matter what.

Li Muhan was slightly taken aback, could it be?He is also asking himself.

Hua Man'er sneered: "Sure enough, Your Majesty can't answer. So, don't play bitter scenes, and don't act out your affection. Who knows what is behind your affection? Is it driven by loneliness? Is it the comfort of injury? Or is it consistent? use?"

"You don't believe me?" Li Muhan burst out every word from his lips and teeth, and the anger gathered between his brows.

"Why do you want people to believe you?" Hua Man'er retorted sharply, "Severing your fingers, building a temple, and killing Shi Yirou, to you, it's just something you have to do to correct your own mistakes, what does it have to do with me? Did you ask me what I need? Did you ever think about me when I really needed it? Did you ever really do anything for me? Just to make me happy, did you do anything?"

When Li Muhan heard this, the anger between his brows suddenly dissipated, his face was gloomy, and he reflected on his heart.

"Since Shi Yirou's death, all you have done is atonement! You are just atonement! But, Li Muhan, I have to tell you, if two people want to be together, we can't just rely on one side's atonement to live. That is far from enough We must be in love with each other, we must be like-minded, and we can live together. Do you think we can do it?" Hua Man'er asked aggressively, hitting the nail on the head.

Li Muhan was stunned for a long time before he answered decisively: "Yes! Maner, you have wrongly blamed me—"

"Your Majesty, sister—" Suddenly, a voice interrupted Li Muhan's explanation.

Hua Man'er didn't even need to raise her eyes, she knew that such a nice voice came from Hua Zehao's mouth.It seemed that this younger brother was worried after all, so he came after him.

Li Muhan frowned slightly, and swallowed back what he was about to explain.

"Sit down, Hao'er, do you have something important to do when you enter the palace?" Li Muhan asked patiently.Li Muhan really wanted to kick this Cheng Yaojin out halfway.

"Yes, I received a reply from Maya." Hua Zehao casually took out a letter and presented it to Li Muhan, "He agrees that my sister will stay until the beginning of spring, and also agrees to come to Yidu to marry my sister with the dowry."

Hua Man'er smiled.

Li Muhan was opening the letter, when his cold eyes peeked at Hua Man'er's reaction from above the letter, and his heart was filled for a moment.

Hua Zehao's face was not very good-looking either.

"Sister, can't you be more reserved?" Hua Zehao directly protested.

Hua Man'er blinked in surprise, and said aggrievedly: "I'm very reserved, and I didn't say anything."

"You didn't say anything, but the corner of your mouth is unconsciously smiling, you know?" Hua Zehao was not happy anyway.

"Oh," Hua Man'er suddenly suppressed her smile and lowered her head.But after thinking about it, he couldn't help but sneer.

It's not because she is so happy to marry Maya, but seeing that the two men she loves the most in her life are reluctant to marry her, a flower can't help but bloom in her heart.

However, this marriage contract still has to be fulfilled in the end.

So after laughing for a while, her face also sank...
