Xuan Tianhua smiled faintly, looking at Feng Yu Heng seriously for a while, then turning his gaze towards Consort Yun, only saying: "Everything will be decided by Imperial Concubine Mother."
"You agreed?" The person who spoke in shock was Xiangrong. Not only was she shocked, she was also extremely nervous, her two small hands clenched tightly under the table, looking at Xuan Tianhua with a pair of eyes, hoping to see the real answer from his gaze.
But Xuan Tianhua did not say anything else, he only expressed that he would let Consort Yun make the decision. As for himself, he did not say whether he was willing or not, he was still as calm as before, so calm that it was as if a gust of wind could blow him away, as if he did not exist in this world.
"Then it's decided." Consort Yun finally made the decision and calculated, saying: "This is a huge matter, we have to make more preparations, it's going to be summer soon, how about this, on this year's Mid-Autumn Festival, we will head to Ji 'an County together to deliver the betrothal gifts. What do you all think? "
Who would have any objections to something she had decided? Moreover, Xuan Tianhua had already nodded, what else could others say? This matter was settled under Consort Yun's arrangements alone, it could be said that from now on, Xiangrong was the future female master of this Chun Palace.
Xiangrong was a little dazed, she had thought that the path of admiring the Seventh Prince would be endless until the end of her life, she had thought that a deity-like person like Xuan Tianhua, she would never be able to hope for him in this lifetime. She had already made the preparations to look up to him for the rest of her life, but she did not expect that today, there would be such a turn of events, with such progress. She felt that it was not real, and could not help but pinch her own arm hard. This pinch was a little too harsh, to the point that she could not even endure the pain, letting out a cry of "Ah", then lowering her head in embarrassment, feeling that she was really embarrassed.
But at this moment, a pair of gentle hands reached towards her, gently covering the bruises on her arm. In an instant, warmth assaulted her, just like the sunlight that suddenly shone in, warming her entire heart.
Because of this topic, this meal was very lively. Consort Yun did not ask anything about the matters in the palace, everyone also kept their mouths shut, regardless of whether the old Emperor had recovered or not, Consort Yun's attitude made them understand, there were many things that could not be reversed. No one knew what their ending would be, but now, the old Emperor could let Consort Yun leave, and Consort Yun also chose to forget, then let's continue with this kind of life! Life, it is, it is, it..............................
When Xuan Tian Ming brought Feng Yu Heng back to the manor, the sky was already completely dark. The two did not return to the main courtyard. Instead, they held hands and strolled around the manor's garden.
The Imperial Palace Yu's garden was very big, although it was not as grand as the Imperial Garden, the green pines and willows were much more elegant than the flowers in the Imperial Garden, Feng Yu Heng liked it very much. The two chose a pavilion and sat down. It was close to the side of the lake, and there was no tea or wine; however, there were carbonated drinks from the modern era that Feng Yu Heng had brought out from her space. Xuan Tian Ming enjoyed them very much.
But she was a little sick of it, putting it down after drinking two mouthfuls, she even said to Xuan Tianming: "This kind of drink is good, but it is not very healthy, it should not be drunk often."
Xuan Tianming, however, retorted: "Just like Seventh Brother, that kind of person is good-looking, but I don't know if it is suitable to be close to in the long term."
"You are talking about the Seventh Brother and Xiangrong." Feng Yu Heng smiled bitterly, "That child Xiangrong has always had an obsession, this obsession is Seventh Brother. This matter is also my fault, if not for me, she would not have such deep feelings for Seventh Brother. But I gave them a beginning, but I am unable to bear the consequences. Just like you said, Seventh Brother is a good person, but I don't know if he can give Xiangrong the sincerity that child wants. "
"Seventh Brother has not been close to any girl, to be honest, other than Tiange, who is his younger sister, it is only you and Xiangrong." Xuan Tianming exposed her words, looked at Feng Yu Heng, and pretended to be jealous: "If it is not Seventh Brother, but someone else, I will not let him."
Feng Yu Heng laughed, "But he is your Seventh Brother! You know, I only have you in my heart. "
"En." He nodded, "I know, I have known since many years ago. You were picked up by me from the mountains, not the child of the Feng family. "
Feng Yu Heng was stunned, and corrected him: "It can't be said that I am not completely different, in terms of bloodline, I am still part of the Feng family. But internally, it is different, three years of living in the Northwest, I have been completely isolated from the Feng family, completely separated, even if they took me back, I would not be able to truly integrate. This is perhaps fate, Feng Yu Heng's fate, and also the fate of the entire Feng family. Xuan Tianming — — "She looked at him, and said seriously:" I do not like to be confined in the palace all day, but I am not against you being the Emperor. If Father Emperor must pass the throne to you, then you should take it! After all, you have paid too much for this land, I know that you want Dashun to be better. "
Xuan Tianming, however, shook his head, saying: "It's not as if we must get back how much we put in, I hope that Da Shun will be better, but I also believe that Da Shun will not develop any worse in the hands of the other elder brothers than when I was in that position. I will do everything possible to pacify the four seas of Dashun before Father Emperor passes the throne. When that day comes, I will take you to another place after paying respects to the new Emperor and ascending the throne. That is a very good place, although it is not as developed as Dashun, there are many things waiting to be done, just like Ji 'an County in the past, it will be built by you and become a magical country! "
This was the first time Xuan Tianming revealed his future plans, and Feng Yu Heng was very moved. She had always had a dream, which was to open up a place in this era and implement new policies, just like later generations, emphasizing human rights and equality for everyone. The political center existed to serve the people, not like now, where it existed to rule the people. She even wanted to reform examination-oriented education. In addition to opening more professional courses, she also wanted to teach people to learn foreign languages. After learning them well, they could build large ships to go out to sea and open up a trade route overseas.
She had implemented this idea in Ji 'an County, but it was in Dashun after all, and the place was too small. There were results, but it was not obvious. She really wanted to ask Xuan Tianming how big the place was, and whether she could open up her "work." But Xuan Tianming was tight-lipped about this, only using a devilish smile as an answer. No matter how she beat around the bush, he did not reveal anything. Feng Yu Heng was helpless and could only give up, but she kept thinking about Xiangrong and Xuan Tianhua's future. Logically speaking, Consort Yun made the decision, Xuan Tianhua also did not object, this marriage should have been settled, but why did her heart keep hanging up involuntarily when she thought about this? Why did she feel that this was not a good thing?
In Chun Palace, Consort Yun drank some wine and went to bed early. Xiangrong accompanied Consort Yun by her side, but she could not fall asleep no matter what. Her mind was filled with both excitement and worry. She was excited because her wishes had come true. She was worried because agreeing to this marriage, was it something that Xuan Tian Hua truly wanted, or was it something that Imperial Concubine Yun had forced for her?
She could not fall asleep, so she got up and quietly walked out of the bedroom. There was a maid keeping watch outside, seeing her come out, she wanted to ask a few questions, but Xiangrong put her index finger to her lips, making a shushing gesture, then said softly: "Madam is sleeping soundly, keep watch, I came out to take a breather, there is no need to follow."
She said there was no need to follow, so there really was no need to follow. She did not even want to bring along her personal maid, just walking alone in Chun Palace. As she walked, she actually arrived in front of Xuan Tianhua's courtyard.
Xiangrong was a little dazed, she did not think that she would unknowingly walk to this point, and felt a little awkward. After all, it was the middle of the night, a girl walking to the entrance of a man's courtyard, this was not proper. Just as she was about to turn around and go back, she heard a gentle voice from the courtyard: "Since you're here, come over and sit, have a cup of tea!"
The voice belonged to Xuan Tianhua, Xiangrong then realised, this person also could not fall asleep. But why could Xuan Tianhua not fall asleep? Did he regret it?
She walked into the courtyard with fear and trepidation, Xuan Tianhua had already poured tea for her personally, placing it opposite her. When Xiangrong sat down, she really wanted to ask the question in her heart, but she did not dare. She was afraid that if Xuan Tianhua admitted it and said he regretted it, then what should she do? This person was an obsession that she could not give up in her entire life, she thought, even if the other party was not willing, as long as the two of them became husband and wife, even if it was only in name, she would be willing, right?
So she did not ask anything, did not say anything, just drank tea quietly, sip after sip, cup after cup.
And Xuan Tianhua was the same, Xiangrong did not speak, he did not speak either, the two of them just drank tea like this, during this time, there would always be servants coming up to replace the old tea with new tea, until the third pot, the sky started to brighten.
Xiangrong stood up, bowing towards Xuan Tianhua: "The sky is almost bright, Xiangrong will take her leave. His Highness the Seventh Prince's tea is very good, Xiangrong is very willing to drink tea with His Highness for the rest of my life, just … … just drinking tea. " Her voice was filled with endless loneliness, this night of drinking, she clearly knew that Xuan Tianhua did not have any feelings for her, because she had seen the interaction between Feng Yu Heng and Xuan Tianming, that Xuan Tianming was also known to be a cold person of few words, but when he faced her second sister, the cold face naturally disappeared, and he naturally became more talkative.
She knew that this was true love, for the person she liked, she could change herself, she could put down her status to cooperate. But the Seventh Prince did not, he was still the same as before, he was still the same as before, he was still the same as before, the feeling of being thousands of miles away from the person who should be by his side still existed. She understood, this was because there was no love between the two of them, and because there was no love, he would not change when facing her.
But no matter what, it was fine as long as there was an engagement! Xiangrong comforted herself, she did not ask for much in the first place, now that she had exceeded her limit, she should be satisfied, not complain.
Thinking like this, her mood also improved, the corners of her lips curled up into a smile, when she turned around, that smile fell into Xuan Tianhua's eyes, strangely making him feel a little sad.
He tightened the fingers holding the teacup, saying: "Don't think too much, regarding the engagement … … I am willing."
