Chapter 78 Princess Langya wants to visit Guanzhong [Seeking follow-up reading]
It was not until she got into the carriage that tears began to fall from the girl's eyes and she couldn't help humming from her nose, which made Yudie next to her very nervous and he quickly took out the bottle of medicine he carried with him.
"Your Majesty, why are you arguing with him?"
Yudie held her in his arms like a sister, and comforted her with a distressed voice: "If you didn't come to find him, it would be fine. But since you are here, you can just talk to him nicely and it won't become like this."
"..."
Who knows? She had prepared a speech before coming here, but just a few words after entering the door broke her defenses.
"Uh - he said I'm short -"
Overwhelmed by emotion, Wu Tongtong hugged her and buried his head in her arms to vent: "I climbed such a high wall and ran out of the palace to find him, but as soon as we met, he said that I was short--"
Wu Tongtong didn't want to recall the scene at that time. The man's master was clearly right next to her, but he still said such words. Her face felt like it was on fire. It was so embarrassing.
"..."
Yudie was speechless. She had thought of many possibilities, both inside and outside the palace, but she had never thought of this as the reason.
But if you look closely at the porcelain doll's eyes and eyebrows in her arms, putting aside her identity, isn't she just an ignorant girl?
"Hmph, jade certificate—cough!"
The porcelain doll said in a tone of despair: "I will not look for him anymore, never again."
"..."
Yudie was a little older, and wanted to point out the issue of "communication", which her mother-in-law and sister-in-law would discuss in detail before her marriage. But when she saw the heartbroken little man in her arms, she shut her mouth silently.
There may be misunderstandings between the two, but at present, it is not suitable. Your Majesty is the supreme ruler, why can't you find a better one who can coax her? You have to suffer this.
In the courtyard next door, Wei Mingqi was not surprised to see Wan Renshan coming. After all, considering the latter's control over the palace, Wu Tongtong's so-called "sneaking away" was nothing but child's play.
"Old man, you are so cruel—"
An old man and a young boy walked over to the side, and Wei Mingqi couldn't help but complain: "You held it in until the very end before you came out. Do you think it's so fun to watch us fighting?"
Wan Renshan looked up at him and said, "Think about it yourself. How many words did you two say to each other before and after you met?"
"..."
Seeing that the old man was unwilling to take the blame, Wei Mingqi felt that this man was too unfair.
"You take care of the palace and do something about it."
He said helplessly, "I had packed my things and was about to leave Beijing for work, but you insisted on letting her come out and made us break up. Now we have lost even the last bit of friendship."
The reason why he let the emperor come out and watched the two quarreling in Wanren Mountain naturally had his own reasons. As for the friendship between childhood sweethearts——
Boyhood playmates, childhood sweethearts, no matter how tough they say it is, how can friendship be cut off just like that? This is the purest thing in youth.
Wan Renshan was not worried at all, and asked about his plans for this trip: "What are you going to do when you get there?"
Wei Mingqi, who was in a bad mood, curled his lips and said:
"depend on mood."
Wan Renshan understood what was happening and without saying anything, handed over a piece of paper.
"Tip?"
"The letter from the emperor was delivered not long ago."
"..."
Wei Mingqi opened it and took a look. The anger between his brows gradually turned into astonishment. Soon after, he asked, "Dongfang Ming is willing to let her out? At this time? What do you think about this matter?"
"It's not how I see it, it's how you see it."
Wan Renshan said with a gloating smile on his face: "He is your destined enemy, not mine."
"..."
Wei Mingqi fell into deep thought. Old Man Wan did not stay long because he had to send the emperor back to the palace. After he left, Wei Mingqi tore up the letter from the emperor and walked back to the courtyard. He saw Xie Beiling coming back from behind the closed door. He looked up and said to him:
"How can you say that to a girl?"
"what?"
Wei Mingqi blinked his eyes and asked indifferently: "Master, what do you mean?" "Mopping the floor and stealing clothes."
"..."
Wei Mingqi was silent for a moment, then he couldn't help scratching his chin: "A bit too much? But we used to fight every day and never broke up. She did it for her aunt, I know it in my heart, but I'm really tired of that woman, and they are so related."
Xie Beiling did not comment on the relationship between him and the two women in the palace, but only talked about the two of them today: "No matter how good your relationship was before, since people come to your house, they are guests. How can you treat them like this?"
"..."
Wei Mingqi frowned slightly and thought for a moment. He felt that what she said made some sense, but not completely reasonable.
"I gave in later but she didn't give me any face at all."
The young man's voice was filled with depression. "Besides, we have too many differences. Our identities are like this and so are our friends. It's hard for both of us to be friends. Let's just leave it like this."
Xie Beiling stared at his eyes quietly, and suddenly said, "Have you ever thought that she doesn't want to be friends with you either?"
"If you don't want to -"
Wei Mingqi's voice stopped abruptly.
Well, the girl's feelings were once made clear to him, and he was not blind or deaf, so he could naturally feel it.
"Master..."
Wei Mingqi's face turned bitter, and he pointed outside the door:
"Look at that old eunuch just now. Don't you think he lives a miserable life? Do you think I will be like him in the future?"
"..."
If someone else were to take the same position, the result might be very different. For example, if Wei Mingqi was trapped in a small cage like the Wanren Mountain, with no way to vent his anger, he might even vomit blood and die.
Xie Beiling also understood him, so after just a brief thought, she temporarily put aside the slight sympathy she had for Wu Tongtong.
"Whatever you do, don't hurt anyone again."
She turned around and went back into the house to pack his luggage.
"..."
After Xie Beiling left, the smile on Wei Mingqi's face faded a little.
"Langya Princess Li He wants to visit Guanzhong——"
He didn't know whether he should tell Xie Beiling about this news. Just like the prophecy of Master Taixuan, the decision made on the post road five years ago was also a topic that Wei Mingqi didn't want to touch upon.
'Hit Enemy'
'Dragon and Tiger Meet'
At this critical juncture, the firewood he and Wanrenshan had piled up seemed to be able to add fuel to the fire. As for whether this fire would burn him -
"Young Master, your hairpin is already patinated, why don't you change it?"
“Clothes are better when new, and people are better when old.”
"Oh--"
The evil voice came close to my ears:
"So the young master doesn't like spoiled and willful little girls. He prefers those who are more considerate and older, right?"
Snapped--
This black-hearted apricot will add fuel to the fire today, Wei Mingqi reached out and slapped her round butt hard:
"You're always being so flirty, can you please be a little more positive?"
"……it is good."
The laughter in my ears is still there, but if you listen carefully, you can hear some gnashing of teeth: "On this official mission, I will be civilized with you for once."
Wei Mingqi subconsciously stretched out his hand and was about to say something, but she didn't give him the chance and slipped over the wall of the next courtyard like a loach.
The beautiful apricot that was about to fly into his mouth seemed to be about to fly away. Wei Mingqi almost reached out to slap his own mouth, but in the end he felt that he could not put all the blame on himself.
It’s all Xu Jiabao’s fault——
