"Moreover, what he said is right. My sister is not bad. From a man's point of view, my sister really has a top-notch figure. Even your sister-in-law repeatedly praised you and was extremely envious of you. She said that she had seen you when she was bathing with you. She said that your figure was peerless and unparalleled. Women would feel inferior when they saw you. She said that whoever could marry you would be blessed. She scolded those men for being blind. You know that your sister-in-law will not say flattering words so it must be true. Why are you belittling yourself? "
Shang Shuqing's cheeks turned hot from his words and spat, "Brother, you are not serious!"
Lan Ruoting, who was listening at the side, smiled.
"Ai!" Shang Chaozong raised his hands and held her shoulders, "Qing 'er, Li Ye is really not bad! Although he is older than you by seven or eight years, the difference between men and women is nothing. Although he lost his wife, you and I both know the reason why he lost his wife. It is not his fault. In fact, I did not expect him to say this and I am also very surprised. "
"To be honest, because of your face, if you marry someone else, I will not be at ease with those who judge a book by its cover. However, we all know Li Ye very well, so he definitely won't mistreat you. He's one of us, and he won't do this just because he's interested in our family's power. He's also not the kind of person who indulges in debauchery. Don't be in a hurry to refuse. While the war is still frozen and he is free, you can first contact him and see if he is to your liking. Okay? "
Shang Shuqing was silent for a while and finally shook her head, "Brother, forget it. I don't want to marry and this is also good. Help me thank General Li for his good intentions and say that I am not worthy of him. "
"What nonsense are you talking about? Why are you not worthy of him? " Shang Chaozong was anxious and grabbed her wrist, "How can there be a reason for a girl not to marry. How can I explain to my dead parents and Big Brother and Second Brother?"
Shang Shuqing said with a pained expression, "Brother, are you in such a hurry to marry me off? Do you think I'm an eyesore at home? "
"You … How dare you!" Shang Chaozong flew into a rage and grabbed her arm.
"Prince, Prince …" Lan Ruoting quickly stepped forward and inserted himself between the two. He pulled Shang Chaozong's hand away and separated them.
Shang Chaozong was infuriated. He pointed at Shang Shuqing and said, "Marriage is an important matter. You should listen to your parents. If your parents aren't around, your elder brother can make the decision for you. Today, you have to agree to it even if you don't want to!"
Shang Shuqing: "You said you wouldn't force me to do this. Are you going back on your word?"
Shang Chaozong: "Am I forcing you? I'm doing this for your own good. You should be happy that Li Ye said this. Can you find someone more suitable for you than Li Ye? "
Shang Shuqing: "Brother, I said I don't want to get married. Don't force me anymore. If you do, I'll leave!"
"Leave?" Shang Chaozong stared angrily. "Where can you go in this chaotic world? Are you tired of living? "
Shang Shuqing: "I'm going to Thatched Cottage Villa!"
"Thatched Cottage Villa?" Shang Chaozong's face darkened. He pushed aside Lan Ruoting who was trying to dissuade him and pointed at Shang Shuqing's nose. "Thatched Cottage Villa again! I know, I know. Do you think I don't know what you're thinking? Niu Youdao! You like him, don't you? "
Shang Shuqing retorted. "I like him, but can't I like anyone else? Brother, when did you become so domineering? "
Shang Chaozong pointed at his nose and laughed angrily. "I'm domineering? Am I being domineering? I'm doing this for your own good. I don't want to see my sister sad. I just want you to be happy for the rest of your life! Sister, don't hold on to those unrealistic fantasies. I know you like him, but this kind of thing requires mutual consent. You like him, but he doesn't like you. It's useless for you to have wishful thinking! Niu Youdao, what kind of person is Daoye? You've known him for so many years. Don't tell me you still don't know him?
"He's holding the wind and clouds in his hands. He has the world in his heart. He can see thousands of miles away, and his ears are filled with the sound of thunder. How can such a person make do with someone who will accompany him for the rest of his life?
"He's too rational. There's no love between a man and a woman in his eyes. Even if there is, ordinary women won't be able to enter his eyes, let alone you. Don't you know your own face? You've combed his hair for so many years. I don't believe he doesn't know your feelings. Even a rock would warm up. But how did he treat you? Did he have any feelings for you? He did not want to hurt you with his words. He wanted you to back off. Don't you understand? "
Shang Shuqing's eyes were filled with tears. She was really stimulated by his words. She, who was gentle by nature, said loudly, "You don't need to care about this matter!"
Shang Chaozong's hands were trembling, as if he couldn't wait to cut out his own heart. "Your matter, if I don't care about it, who will care? Qing-er, what do you see in him? You're wasting your time like this. You have to say something right? "
The tears in Shang Shuqing's eyes fell, "Brother, don't force me. Don't force me. I don't know. I really don't know. I don't know what's going on. The first time I saw him, it was under the peach tree that was as bright as the sunset. He was sleeping under the rain of fallen petals. I had an inexplicable feeling. It seemed that he was waiting for me there. He was imprisoned there for five years. It seemed that he was waiting for my arrival. It seemed that he would only leave when I came. It seemed that if I didn't appear, he would be waiting for me there forever. It seemed that other than me, no one could take him away. He had been waiting for me … "
Speaking till here, she was choking with sobs. She shook her head and said, "I knew that the Shanghai Sect was perfunctory with me. I was not familiar with him and did not understand him. But I still brought him down the mountain. Although I had my reasons, I knew in my heart that there seemed to be something that prompted me to make that decision. Even if I knew that he might not be useful, I had an inexplicable feeling that he was waiting for me. "
"After going down the mountain, even if he did not show any ability, I would always subconsciously pay attention to him. I would often look at him as if he was the only one in my eyes. After that, no matter how many people there were, as soon as I turned my head, I would always be able to accurately find where he was standing at the first glance. "
"Men and women should not touch each other. In the past, I never thought that I would be alone in a room with a man who was not my own. I also never thought that I would comb the hair of a man who was not my own. It was impossible for me to do such a thing. But facing him, even though I am not very familiar with him, I inexplicably did it."
"Every time I combed his hair, I always had a strange feeling. He sat there with his back to me. It was not that he could not see me, but because his back was facing me. He seemed to know that I would definitely appear by his side. He wanted to see me, but when he opened his eyes, he saw me in the mirror. He thought that I was in the mirror, but in fact, I was behind him. Every time he opened his eyes to look at me in the mirror, I also looked at him in the mirror. Why must we be separated by a mirror? I always had an inexplicable urge to make him turn his head to look at me. I wanted to tell him that I was behind him. But my face was very ugly, and I did not dare to say it. "
"All of you advised me to give up openly and secretly, but I always felt that he would not give up on me. I always felt that he was here for me. This feeling was very strong, so strong that I was willing to trust him unconditionally. Even when I saw him with other women, I still believed in him. "
"Brother, it really is an inexplicable feeling. I don't know why, nor can I explain what is going on. Perhaps Father and Mother sent him to help us."
Lan Ruoting was a little dumbfounded. Why did he feel that the princess's mind was muddled, as if she was talking in her sleep?
Shang Chaozong's expression twitched. He was dumbfounded. He had never seen his sister like this. What was she saying? Was she crazy? He felt that she was trapped by love.
After calming himself down, he earnestly advised, "Qing-er, stop dreaming. He will not like you. Don't hold that hope. I also hope that he will be able to fulfill your wish, but there is no hope. Don't drag it. He can afford to drag it. Even if he drags it until he is seventy or eighty, it would not be a problem for him to find any young and beautiful woman. Can you afford to drag it? Qing-er, you are already an old lady. If you drag it on any longer, it will ruin your entire life. Why can't you listen to me? Alright, I will only ask you one question. Touch your face. Do you dare to say that you like him in front of him? "It seemed as if he couldn't wait to wake her up.
Shang Shuqing was provoked by his last sentence and loudly said, "Don't say anymore. I will not marry anyone. I will live like this for the rest of my life. If you feel that I should not stay here, you are the Prince. You have the final say here. You can order me to leave at any time!"
"You … I will teach you a lesson on behalf of Father and Mother!" Shang Chaozong was impulsive. Lan Ruoting quickly hugged his waist and shouted, "Princess, you go back first!"
Shang Shuqing wiped his tears with his sleeves and turned to leave. But when he reached the door, he stopped and said a few words with his back facing her. "Older Brother, I am not involved much in military and political affairs and do not know much. I do not know if your decision is right or wrong. This matter concerns the life and death of too many people and I dare not interfere. But I will give you a word of advice. Do not push things too far. I do not know about other people's ability but with Daoye's ability … I believe that he can come back. I firmly believe that he will definitely come back. You all do your best and do not make things difficult for yourself! "
After saying that, he wiped his tears and walked away in quick steps.
After so many years, today was the first time she spoke her heart out in agitation.
Shang Chaozong was really angry as he panted like a bull. "How could it be like this? Qing-er has always been intelligent. Why is she spouting nonsense? How did a good person become like this? "
Lan Ruoting pulled him and comforted him with kind words. "Prince, don't be angry. There is no need for this. Girls will always be emotional and it is inevitable for them to have their first awakening of love. It will be better in the future. It will be better in the future."
Shang Chaozong turned back and asked him, "First awakening of love? Do you think she looks like she is having her first awakening of love? She is already spouting nonsense! I am worried that she is unable to think things through because of her own face and has fallen into some kind of emotion. What is she trying to escape from? Among the soldiers below, there are some who have this kind of situation because of the fear of killing. I have seen them and the symptoms are very similar. "
"Uh …" Lan Ruoting was stunned. After thinking for a while, he realized that it was really possible. He said with a serious face, "I will ask the Master to examine the Princess carefully."
Shang Chaozong nodded and suddenly reminded, "Don't agitate her. Don't let her know that you are treating her."
