caused trouble for Sheng Jing at Xiangguo Temple.
I apologized to him in a low voice.
"I shouldn't have quarreled with others, I shouldn't have been right and unforgivable to others, I shouldn't have bothered you..."
"Wrong." Sheng Jing only said two words, but it made me confused.
"All of them are wrong. Others say something wrong, and they should quarrel. Because it is you, the name of the young lady has meaning."
"The last sentence, if you don't bother me, who else do you want to trouble me?"

"Subordinately, the emperor's decree said: Su, the daughter of the left prime minister Su Ansu, has a kind nature, has a kindness, has a good beauty, has a prosperous talent and a rich virtue, and has the beauty of the boudoir. I am very happy to hear this and feel that Su Xiang is good at raising a daughter. I am here to point out the marriage to Sheng Jing, the eldest son of the general of the country, and I blame the company for choosing an auspicious day to get married. I admire this!"
The father-in-law in the palace specially brought the emperor's reward to announce the edict in the main hall of my home.
I knelt aside, my mind was blank.
The old emperor is really confused! So confused!
How can a dignified emperor have time to care about the marriage between his ministers and daughters?
, it’s okay to care about it, why do you misunderstand the mandarin duck?
I obviously like the emperor's youngest son, King Yu.
This time, I directly pointed me at the general's legitimate son.
2
kneeling among the people in the hall, only my heartless sister-in-law is really happy.
Because a few days ago, she had just led her nephew Sheng Jing, who was outside the five wards, to see me.
My sister-in-law had a kind intention, just thinking about letting us know each other, and whether there will be a marriage in the future will be decided by God.
Don’t know if there is any marriage, but the evil fate has already happened.
I guess I was so sad that I was so disappointed when I heard this news.
Another protagonist in the imperial edict, Sheng Jing, the eldest son of the general of the country, must have been mixed with all kinds of feelings.
He is interested in it, and the whole Yun Kyoto knows Sheng Jing's story.
When he was fourteen years old, he took the property he had saved to the right prime minister Bai Qinli's mansion to propose marriage, and he aspired to marry Bai Rongshuang, the only daughter of the right prime minister.
In fact, his belongings are just land deeds of several shops, which are not as valuable as the backyard of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, but he has indeed saved it for a long time.
The right-hand link didn't let him see his daughter, so he coaxed and deceived Sheng Jing back to the general's mansion.
But you can tell how to laugh behind your back.
Since it is said that Sheng Jing is also affectionate. He was willing to do it when he was fourteen years old. He has never forgotten it for three years.
and even a few days ago, when my sister-in-law pulled him to celebrate with our girls at the twentieth crown ceremony of the prince of the Shangshu Mansion, he shouted, "I don't see you, aunt, don't mess up your marriage. I think Miss Bai's family has not been there for one day or two."
When I heard this, I couldn't help laughing out loud.
This is our first meeting, and I admire his affection in his resistance.
We didn't say anything that day. Maybe because he heard me laugh at him, his face turned red and he ran away from the Shangshu Mansion.
My sister-in-law teased me, "My nephew is good everywhere, I am introverted and not talkative, and I am just a stubborn thing."
I smiled and said to her, "I heard of this and I have a hard time feeling."
"He and Miss Bai's family are just nonsense. I haven't even seen someone else's face in three years. The right prime minister walked around when he saw him. I saw him very well!"
"Sister-in-law, don't be bad, the young master of the Sheng family is in his heart, so Ran'er will not get involved."
My sister-in-law is the daughter of a military general. She is not as good as the civil servants like us, and she has no scruples with me. She really thinks that Sheng Jing is good, so she wants to make a marriage line.
And I was convinced not to get involved in the matter, but I was assigned by the emperor and had to get involved. I'm not too worried about giving marriage to
.
I thought that Sheng Jing liked Bai Rongshuang so much, and would beg General Shanda to lobby for breaking the engagement with the emperor.
The only thing I worry about is what King Yu would think when he hears this news.
I and King Yu were very close when I was young.
He is very close to my brother, and my father is his teacher again.
He once studied with my father in my family for a year and a half, and we became familiar with each other during that period.
He often gives me some rare things in the palace, and I secretly stuffed pastries to him when he was punished by his father to endorse him.
He once promised me on a hazy morning of spring rain that he would see all life with me when he grew up.
But I will let him down.
He won’t sit still, right?
We should be so good, and we like each other, so he will definitely try his best to ask the emperor for help.
Dad received the order, and I pulled A Nuan, the close maid who grew up with me, back to the room.
I told A Nuan to leave the mansion and go to Prince Yu’s mansion to discuss countermeasures with Prince Yu.
But she came back soon and brought me a more unsolvable blow.
The emperor also has a marriage decree, which is to give the right prime minister’s only daughter Bai Rongshuang to King Yu.
is messed up, and the emperor's will is messed up.

I have never thought that these two imperial edicts of the emperor are the last two imperial edicts.
The war in the northwest was tense, and the emperor was furious and suddenly fell ill and was bedridden.
The general of the town was seriously injured on the battlefield. Sheng Jing received the order to grant marriage and had not yet refuted the protest, so he asked for an order to go to the northwest border battlefield to support him, and the prince was also accompanied by the prince.
The burden of governing the country was pressed on King Yu, and the emperor's health did not improve. King Yu married Bai Rongshuang as he ordered.
He didn't explain anything to me, I understand.
The national crisis is alive and there is internal and external troubles. He has no time to take care of it, so he will marry it.
The battlefield in the northwest border has been mourning and complaining, and I wrote one letter after another to Sheng Jing.
I ask him to take time to express his feelings with the emperor and retire from our marriage.
I ask him to explain to General Shanda to break the engagement.
He didn't reply to me any letter. Later I realized that I shouldn't beg him to break off the engagement, but to beg him to save his life.
If he dies on the battlefield, I will be a widow.
This letter that hopes that he will win the battle and that he will return alive. He replied to me, and the reply only has four words: [Don't think about returning home. 】
His words are very powerful and square.
If the words are like the person, then he should be very fair and reasonable.
Since this letter, things have no turnaround.
The battlefield has no eyes, the prince sacrificed his life for his country, and the bad news was passed back to the emperor and he could not bear it and died together.
King Yu was ordered to inherit the throne as the only prince.
The last decree of the late emperor became the last decree, which is my unfinished marriage with Sheng Jing.
This means that there is no possibility for me and King Yu to become emperor again. Once he becomes emperor, I will be a wife.
The situation on the battlefield in the northwest border has reversed. It is said that the major general has gone through several trainings. If he had the help of God, he could already stand alone and scare away the enemy.
He used his troops like a god, and he skillfully deployed military tactics to kill tens of thousands of enemies.
The title of "Cold-faced General Kills People Like Mahjong" also spread rapidly throughout Yunjing.
But I became the target of Man Yunjing's joke.
I don’t know who spread the past of me and King Yu, the emperor of the New Dynasty.
Everyone said that I was following the emperor but failed, and they accused the major general of the marriage, but the major general did not want to get married and deliberately hid on the frontier and did not come back.

0 Right-hand men are in power, and our lives are not so easy.
First, several memorandums were written on my father, saying that he was unfair to the public and was private.
I thought that the emperor was also my father who grew up watching him, so I would not believe those slander.
But the first imperial edict for his new dynasty was to surrender to our Su Mansion.
Daddy was pulled down from the position of left prime minister and demoted to Guxian prefect.
Although Guxian is also a place where people are outstanding and talented, the conditions are too poor, they are remote and dry, far less prosperous and rich than Yunjing.
The entire Su Mansion has been deserted in a few days.
Brother and sister-in-law send their father and mother to Guxian, and it will take more than half a year to settle down.
But I can't go with them. I must obey the orders of the late emperor and wait for Sheng Jing to marry.
In the past six months, my temperament has changed drastically. I am not as lively and optimistic as before, but I am not verbally speaking and look haggard.
After all, there are too many people coming to see my house for jokes, and Yunjing dislikes me for the first time.
I have always been a person who says whatever he wants, so naturally I offended many noble girls. They seemed to have made an appointment and would come to my house every few days to mock him.
"I heard that Sheng Jing killed someone without blinking, and she gave birth to a delicate face, but she was a ignorant person. She had a beautiful wife at home and was so uneasy."
"Where did you come from? The late emperor just pointed out that Sheng Jing was unwilling to do so, otherwise why wouldn't he come back to get married soon? Could it be that there was no empty marriage?"
"It must be that our Su Ran is notorious, and he is used to being domineering, and even his husband is so scared that he dare not come to marry him."
"Where did you come from? My sister forgot that Su Ran has never even received a marriage ceremony? I hope Sheng Jing is still alive, otherwise..."
Otherwise, they burst into laughter.
I don’t want to talk back anymore. I am a person who pretends to be powerful. My father and brother are not here, so how can I be so powerful?
Ah didn't make a single heating room, and took a large bucket of water for washing vegetables in the kitchen and poured it all at them.
splashed these dilapidated houses away. I leaned against A Nuan's shoulder, rubbed my head and buried my head in front of her, and said stutteringly, "A Nuan, A Nuan, why didn't he explain to me?"
What I said was naturally the new emperor Yu.
He got married and had never explained it to me.
He demoted his father and never explained it to me.
We obviously... so good, so good that I want to see all the wind and rain with him.
Maybe I am the only one who thinks this way. A Nuan said, "The emperor is the emperor, who should I explain it to?"
really makes sense, but I feel even more sad.
I am not a special existence for him.
I should have woken up long ago. From the day I knew him, he has been King Yu and is destined not to be affectionate.

Another day, when A Nuan and I went to the market to buy the fragrance of pear fruits, we happened to meet the spoiled and illegitimate daughter of the Minister of Rites.
She didn't know where she got malicious about me, so she asked someone to block us into the alley.
A Nuan protected me behind me, but I had long lost my energy and let her sarcasticize her.
She just wanted to get into the mouth, and I didn’t have anything to fight back.
Just when she said that I was a living widow and a disgusting husband, the ward beside her was knocked down, and she was strangled to the wall, her feet were almost off the ground.
"I think someone's girl is so unrestrained that she spread rumors that I, the major general, is dead and bullies my wife who has not passed away. She was the daughter of the Minister of Rites and did not learn etiquette well."
Isn't this person in front of me Sheng Jing?
I haven't seen him a lot stronger in a year and his skin has become a little darker. If he hadn't said that he was a major general, I wouldn't have recognized him.
When the daughter of the Minister of Rites was red and couldn't breathe, Sheng Jing let go and let her run away in disappointment.
is like a torch ignited in the cold winter. Sheng Jing is better than the warm sun in the 39th day of the day.
He walked towards me, but instead lost the momentum just now, and even dodged a little, and did not dare to look at me.
"You...you...you...no...isn't it okay?"
He stuttered like this, but he was a bit embarrassed when I first saw him.
I had tears in my eyes and didn't dare to let him notice it. I was afraid that he would be underestimated and saw me being swearing.
But I didn't hide well. When he saw my tears, he asked me, "But that woman hurts you? I'll go to the Minister of Rites and take her out and beat her!"
I stopped him and explained to him that I was fine, but I had no support for the past six months, and it was so easy for someone to stand up. I was really excited.
I naturally knew that he was angry, but it was because others said he died on the battlefield and because his little aunt was my sister-in-law, I took more care of me, but I was still moved by his timely appearance.
"You... seem different..." Although I was stupid, I knew what he was talking about.
When Sheng Jing sent me back to his house, he said this to me, and I answered him truthfully: "It's not that I'm different, but now everything is different, so how can I be the same.”
I lost the sharpness of the Su family when it was at its peak, the carefree and lively, and became timid and silent.

Since Sheng Jing has returned safely, the order of the late emperor must continue step by step.
Sheng Jing became famous in one battle and became a major general who bravely retreated to the enemy in the new dynasty. He not only regained the original land, but also forced the enemy to flee for thirty miles. The emperor was naturally very happy and asked him what reward he wanted.
He just said he wanted to get married to me as soon as possible.
I guess he must have deliberately said and listened to Bai Rongshuang in the hall.
He really likes Bai Rongshuang. Even if she has married into the harem, Sheng Jing will test her like this.
just want to get a little reaction from his lover, even if it is jealous and resentful. How much does Sheng Jing like Baifeng Cream?
Obviously, his little thoughts did not receive a response, and the emperor only said that it would be better to do it according to the order of the late emperor.
So our wedding date is scheduled to be after January. My brother and sister-in-law rushed back and arranged it for me. The gifts like flowing water were sent to the Su Mansion, and the gifts piled up into a hill were dazzling.
The upstarts of the dynasty naturally became popular.
I was benefiting from Sheng Jing's glory, and before I got married, I could hear people calling me "Young Madam".
"Look, Ran'er's watery appearance is really life-threatening. Sheng Jing really likes you. He specifically asked the emperor for an order to station in Yunjing to take charge of the city protection army."
"Sister-in-law, don't joke with me. Ran'er knew that he was trying to stay in Yunjing and wanted to be closer to Bai Rongshuang."
"How dare Ran'er talk nonsense? That's the Empress!"
I saw that my sister-in-law was really angry, so I told her that I didn't mind. Sheng Jing had feelings in her heart, which was a good thing.
"What about you? Are you still thinking about the person you shouldn't have to worry about?"
I know my sister-in-law is asking the emperor.
How dare I think about it? I have let it go long ago. It is because I am wrong.
"Since I'm married to Sheng Jing, I'm his wife. No matter who he has in his heart, I naturally have only him in my heart." I said to my sister-in-law, and also to myself.
Since I am destined, I will try to put Sheng Jing into my heart.
After all, he is heroic and successful in his youth, and he uses troops like a god. Although he looks like a stranger, it also makes me happy.
7
On the wedding day, I couldn’t stand the tedious etiquette and long ceremony.
I was tired and waited for Sheng Jing to open and lift my red veil.
He must have drunk a lot of alcohol, and as soon as the door opened, I smelled the alcohol on him.
When he lifted his veil and saw me, I was looking at him with tears in my eyes. I didn’t know if it was because of the drunkenness that made him blush or something next to me.
"You...why are you crying? But you miss home?"
How could I miss home? His major general's mansion is just a street away from the Su Mansion. I was just very aggrieved.
I had hungry all day and I didn’t eat anything. Now that he lifted the veil, I felt tired and wronged.
"I want to eat glutinous rice lotus root." I said this in a crying voice.
Sheng Jing hurriedly brought the glutinous rice lotus root on the table for me to eat.
is also very good to marry him, I told myself in my heart.
After all, he is fierce and murderous to outsiders, so he is very good to me and even feeds me glutinous rice lotus root.
Let’s see, I’m so satisfied. I just had a piece of glutinous rice lotus, so I walked closer to him.
Maybe because he is a major general, his heroic spirit makes me feel at ease.
When I was sleeping alone in an empty mansion, I was always afraid of falling asleep and waking up. It was rare today.
I lie beside him on the wedding night. We are each restrained, but also extremely harmonious.
Actually, I have a lot of questions to ask him.
For example: "You don't come back on the border, are you really hiding from me?"
"Why do you like white velvet so much?"
"Why are you willing to marry me, the daughter of the Su family who has lost?"
But I didn't ask anything. He stared at the bed, his face was red and smelled of alcohol.
"What do you want to ask?" He seemed to be able to guess what I wanted to do without looking at me.
"Hmm? I have nothing to ask.”
I tried hard to suppress my curiosity, and like other noble girls in Yunjing, I did things that were different.
"In front of me, you don't have to worry about anything, just be yourself." After he said that, I really felt that he had magic, how could he always poke the deepest secret I had hidden?
I kept staring at him. He glanced at me with his eyes, and immediately dodged his eyes, and turned his back to me.
"If you are not used to sleeping together, I will go to the couch to sleep."
"If you are not used to it, you can go to bed on the bottom."
I know that all the comfort now is thanks to him. The title of Madam Major General is enough to make me continue to pretend to be powerful, so naturally there is no reason to drive people away on the wedding night.
So neither of us left the bed and slept with our backs to our backs.
The night that we coincided with the alienation of the two of us was just right. We wanted to find an opportunity to discuss with Sheng Jing, and we just wanted to be a nominal couple.
8
On the second day, my sister-in-law came to see us early in the morning and saw that our deskmate was having dinner far away, and she was very dissatisfied.
She pulled me next to Sheng Jing and forced me to sit down.
"Look, it's so good. You two are like eggplants hit by frost on the same vine."
My sister-in-law said nothing, which made me smile.
"Auntie! Stop talking nonsense. My uncle is the eldest grandpa and doesn't care about your mouth!" Sheng Jing hurriedly stopped his sister-in-law's joke. But my sister-in-law turned to look at me and said to Sheng Jing, "You are not the same. My wife is all a talented woman from Yunjing, and I haven't seen you make much progress."
I really want to refute it. We have just gotten married for one night, and even if Wenquxing descends to earth, there is not much progress, right?
"Ran'er, you don't know. My nephew likes you so much. He and me..." Before his sister-in-law finished speaking, she was interrupted by Sheng Jing.
When Sheng Jing looked up and saw me, I was smiling. I felt a little embarrassed when he looked at me like this and lowered my head.
Actually, when I lowered my head, I thought, this is also good, and it is also great to respect each other like guests and be happy.
A Nuan said that I have always been inseparable from Sheng Jing these days, teasing me that in order to accept the Major General, I have been constantly exploring the advantages of the Major General.
Where do I have it?
Besides, Sheng Jing’s advantages don’t need to be discovered. He is a pretty good person. He follows me everywhere, which makes me feel a little restrained and unfamiliar.
We haven't said much in the past month.
He doesn't often stay in the mansion. He quietly went to the city defense post in the morning, and often waited for me to go to bed before coming back at night.
Once he dropped the tiger head token on his mansion and sent someone to send me a message.
Although I don’t want to, A Nuan said she always wants to go. After all, I am his wife, so people can’t look down on him.
It’s right to think about it. Sheng Jing is already pitiful enough. The woman he likes ascends to the phoenix and becomes a noble person who is in the world.
If the married wife ignores him, how can she raise her head in front of the soldiers?
Thinking of this, I had the strength to send him a token.
I asked A Nuan to boil two large pots of lotus leaves and mung bean water, and we went to the Mocheng Army Post together.
Sheng Jing saw that I was really here, a few doubts flashed in his eyes.
I passed my eyes to him and signaled that he would be more loving.
"The general left in a hurry, and he never brought the token."
Sheng Jing's unscrupulous face turned red as my voice fell. I quickly responded and raised my hand to wipe his sweat with the silk, and kept thinking: "Look, it's hot, the general's head is sweating heavily, and his face is red."
Maybe I pretended too much, and the city-protected men watching not far away laughed in a low voice, and two brave ones shouted at me, "Young Madam is so virtuous!"
There was one shouting, and there were two followers, and the young lady was beyond my expectations.
I have never been called out by so many children since I was a child. It was the first time I was a young lady, and I felt a little embarrassed.
"Everything! A collection of free runs for ten laps!" Sheng Jing turned around and changed his face, with a fierce expression.
I was a little scared, thinking that I didn’t act well, and I made him unhappy?
He looked down at me, pulled me into the hall, and started to cast his spell again. He knew everything and could see through everything.
"I'm not unhappy, I just think you have worked hard."
I really doubted that he could hear what I was thinking, but I really couldn't tell that he was actually jealous of me bringing mung bean water to the soldiers, but I didn't bring him any special ones.
9
He still went home very late, especially today.
I had something to say to him, but before I could reply to him, I fell asleep.
I slept in a large bed, very comfortable, but when I woke up every day, I leaned against the side. It was also hard work for Sheng Jing to move me regularly every night.
He still woke up very early and left with great movements.
When I woke up, it was already noon. Someone from the palace announced an imperial edict, saying that the Empress’s birthday banquet was celebrated. The emperor invited the whole palace to celebrate with him, and the ministers and relatives could also go with him.
I didn't want to go, but Sheng Jing sent someone to pass on the message that we would meet directly in the palace in the evening, which made me have to go.
I thought, it is normal for Sheng Jing to go on Bai Rongshuang's birthday, so let's go with him.
Maybe he can create opportunities for them to speak, which is also considered as the reward he is so kind to me, and I will give him.
The evening banquet was indeed lively.
I haven't joined in the fun for a long time, and I have had some pleasure in joining in the fun for a while.
But I have always been very restrained, dignified, virtuous and gentle, but who knows how tired I am to pretend.
I saw Sheng Jing and the ministers exchanged cups, and I saw the emperor and the queen on the high platform in harmony.
How can we make Sheng Jing and Bai Rongshuang talk?
I poured the wine on myself and signaled A Nuan to help me change my clothes.
Baifengshuang naturally pretended to care about me and went to the back hall to ask me. I asked A Nuan to call Sheng Jing to pick me up, and then said I was unable to drink.
so that they will definitely encounter it on the road, and it is normal to say a few words.
I watched the rockery pavilion in the garden where they were about to meet. The rockery pavilion was a little taller, and I could see them meeting.
I am looking forward to the beautiful scene of Sheng Jing and Bai Rongshuang meeting, and I am looking forward to Sheng Jing being happier.
I was about to rub my hands excitedly, and they met!
I was interested in the rockery pavilion. Although I couldn't hear what they said, I always spoke.
I thought I should avoid it, otherwise I would feel a bit peeping, so I turned around and left, but I saw that the emperor was already behind me. I was shocked and bowed in a hurry.
"I thought you were drunk, but I didn't expect you to be here to blow the wind." The emperor said this, but he didn't see the mystery under the rockery. I was afraid that he would see Sheng Jing meet Bai Rongshuang, after all, that was his queen.
"I... my wife... my wife is just..."
I didn't just come out, but the emperor took the conversation first.
"I actually wanted to explain to you a long time ago, but I didn't have a chance. When the national mourning period is over, I will divorce General Sheng. Then I will welcome you into the palace."
I was so angry that I heard this.
But he is the emperor. If I hit him, even three heads would not be enough to cut them.
What does it mean to explain to me?
He had countless opportunities to explain to me, but he didn't.
He married Bai Rongshuang as the new emperor, but I became the target of Man Yunjing's laughable public criticism.
What does it mean to be separated from Sheng Jing?
When I was the lowest, Sheng Jing married me regardless of status and reputation.
What does it mean to welcome me into the palace?
Who wants to enter his broken harem? Yingying and Yanyan are especially upset when there are too many women.
I was on fire and replied to him in a mild tone: "The emperor is worried too much. My wife is already General Sheng's wife. The late emperor is pointing out marriage. Moreover, my wife and the general are very loving. The emperor has already had a beauties in the harem. I can't tolerate me. I hope the emperor will not talk nonsense."
"Love? What a loving love. You don't think it's nothing if Sheng Jing and my queen meet privately? Be really generous. How can you not enter my harem with such generous?"
It's over, and he saw it.
I quickly got up and looked at Sheng Jing, afraid that he and Bai Rongshuang would have any usurpation.
I stuck out half of my body and looked carefully. They were just talking, without any movement, and they were far apart.
I felt at ease and prepared to turn around and defend the emperor, but the emperor stood closer to me.
I ran into him as soon as I turned around. This time I really shocked me and I screamed in rudely.
Sheng Jing and Bai Rongshuang looked up in response and saw me hitting the emperor.
But I reacted quickly and immediately pushed the emperor away, thinking that I hadn't seen who I was, so I hurried back to the banquet and pretended nothing happened.
A moment later, the emperor, the queen and Sheng Jing both returned to the table, and I kept staring at Sheng Jing.
He seemed even more unhappy and drank alone.
10
When I returned home, I didn't dare to go with him, pull A Nuan and leave him behind and go back home first.
After taking a shower, I sat on the edge of the bed to wipe my hair.
It was getting late, Sheng Jing had not come back yet, and I was a little worried that I was about to send someone to search for him, but he was back.
