love concubine

Finally it was time for the two of us to be alone.

Although the Kong guard once wanted to keep up, the prince clearly ordered him to follow from a distance, and Lan also tried his best to hold him back, so that the prince and I could go to the temple fair alone at night.

I hugged the prince's arm with both hands, and boldly rested my head on his arm, giggling like a fool.

"Stupid Xueer." It was he who found me giggling and tapped my dimple with his finger, "What are you laughing at?"

"Hee hee!..." I rubbed my face, "It's just that I never thought... I could walk hand in hand with you..." If I were wearing men's clothes now, I would still Can you hold hands with him unscrupulously?  …

It shouldn't be possible...

Although it is quite popular in the present world to set up male concubines as male concubines, we are actually just status symbols for noble families.As a man, to find true love from a man, in addition to hardships, it is not allowed.I can't reproduce when we walk together with him. This alone makes people feel that the love between us is useless and incompetent.

However, do we only love each other for the sake of future generations?

I raised my eyes and peeked at the man holding my hand at this moment, and I knew that I fell in love with him because "it was him".Among them, there is no other reason.Regardless of whether this kind of love will eventually destroy my fame and wealth, and tear me apart physically and mentally, I will still choose him.

I think, only a fool will fall in love with others desperately, right?whee!

"Xue'er, what else do you want to see?"

Only then did I come back to my senses in astonishment, and found that the sky was already dark, and the colorful lights and pillars of fire on the street had become extremely bright.But people are still bustling, and there are music and laughter everywhere.

I thought about it, and finally shrugged and said, "I want to see everything!"

He smiled softly, "Could it be that Xueer hasn't seen a temple fair in the capital before?"

I smiled wryly and shook my head, "When I first came to the capital, it was not yet the temple fair season. Later, I went back with Sister Fu, but because it was a temple fair, the Ye Rong Jing Pavilion was more lively than usual. At that time, I was busy playing the piano , I don’t have time to go out to play at all!…”

"It seems to be the same... I remember that there was a temple fair one year. When I saw you playing the piano on the stage during the day, I couldn't help thinking: Has that person ever gone out to the temple fair? Then on the same day, I asked the people from Ye Rongjing Pavilion to send you You have a few bunches of candied chestnuts. Unexpectedly, Xueer really likes chestnuts! Hahaha!"

"...Is there any?" I tilted my head and thought hard, "Someone gave me that kind of thing...?"

"Of course there is." He lightly teased my pursed mouth with his fingers, "You actually forgot?!"

"I!......"

"Well. I must give you another bunch today!" His tone was serious, but there was a teasing smile on his face, which made me blush and smile.

"Okay, okay, I remember! I did eat candied chestnuts, so stop looking for them for me!"

The two of us laughed and argued, and even people passing by started looking our way.I felt embarrassed, and was still thinking about how to change the subject, when I suddenly saw a crowd of people entering and leaving a temple lively in the distance.

"Where is that?!" I pointed.

The prince took a look, "Town God's Temple. What's the matter? Xueer wants to see it?"

"Yeah!" I nodded immediately.As long as I don’t have to eat candied chestnut skewers!I ate a lot of chestnut snacks bought by Aunt Mei and Lan today!

The prince had an "unhappy" face, held my hand and walked slowly with me.

Before we approached, we saw a large two-story hanger outside the Town God's Temple, which was filled with colorful lanterns. I stayed where I was, and couldn't move because of the beauty of the night.But seeing the colorful lights intertwine, it's like the stars in the sky have been plucked by someone, and they are all gathered here tonight, which makes people admire and admire.

Suddenly a big warm hand took me and gently squeezed it.I looked up in astonishment, and under the colorful light, his doting smile was as bright as fireworks.

"Let's go?" His soft voice is like the warm spring breeze, wrapping me comfortably and peacefully.

"Yeah!" Then I knew, the smile on my face was like a flower, awakened by his tender love.

We approached the gate of the temple, but saw people coming in and out in groups. "Where is the Town God's Temple? Can I seek marriage here?" I asked naively.

But the prince exhaled and smiled, and patted my head, "The city god is the god who protects the city, not in charge of marriage."

I immediately bowed my head in embarrassment, and my cheeks flushed with shame.Oops... I actually asked such a stupid question!I don't know if he thinks I'm here to seek marriage...

"Hey!~~Miss over there!" Suddenly an old man hanging a stall at the entrance of the Chenghuang Temple waved to us, "If you want to ask about marriage, come to me!"

I raised my eyebrows curiously.I looked at the prince next to me, but when I saw him smiling and nodding, I ran over happily, "Will you get married?!"

"Hehe!" The old man stroked his beard and smiled, "Marriage is just one of many fates. As long as there is fate, why don't you have love?"

I don't understand what the old man meant by fate and love.But seeing his gray beard and wrinkled face, he felt like a kind, wise and wise old man, and people couldn't help feeling close to him.

"Since fate can make love, then Xue'er doesn't need to ask." The prince came up behind me and put his hand on my waist.

"Hey!~~ That's not necessarily true! We only know each other by fate, and the emotions are not in season. Fate is the opportunity. Once you miss it, you will regret it! Come! This lady sit down! Let the old man see you and this Marriage to a gentleman!" The old man hastily took my hand and told me to sit down.

I turned to look at the prince, but he seemed displeased when he frowned.Why is he unhappy?Doesn't he like things like divination and numerology?I thought about it, and finally stood up.He tugged at his sleeve timidly, "Let's go?......"

He hesitated for a while, then sighed suddenly, took my hand and sat down together, "Just ask."

A happy smile immediately appeared on my face, and I almost wanted to throw myself into his arms and act like a baby.

"Hey hee hee! Grandpa dotes on this girl so much! From the looks of your faces, this old man knows that you will be a loving couple in the future!"

"Really?!" I was so happy to hear that, I also forgot that I was pretending to be a princess at the moment.Later, when I thought about it, I thought maybe that old man, like me, was not from the capital.

"Hmm. Miss, can you tell me your time and horoscope?"

I murmured in amazement, "Well... I don't know about this..." I vaguely remember that my mother-in-law had a note on which my younger brother and I were written, but after my mother-in-law passed away, I don't know where that note went ...

"I don't know? It's not easy... how about this, dare to ask Miss's age and name?"

"I'm seventeen this year! My name is Kexue!"

"Kesue!" The old man suddenly showed a shocked expression.

"...What's wrong?"

"Ahaha!" The old man laughed dryly, "It's okay...it's just that my daughter is also called "Kesue". If I remember correctly, she should be the same age as you this year."

"It's Kexue's daughter!..." I smiled wryly in my heart.Sure enough, the man wouldn't change his name to "Kexue".I really don't know why my mother changed my name like this for me back then.Is it because she likes her daughter?

"Oh... I think my young wife and I were looking forward to the birth of the child, but we had a big fight because of some trivial things. I happened to go out to help an old friend at that time, but when I got home, I found that she had left. Since then Without her whereabouts..."

Listening to the old man telling the past, I always feel that his sad smile makes people feel sad.I feel that not every love can last forever.Sometimes, people may be clouded by anger and jealousy, and do things that hurt their loved ones.Could it be that Old General Cui's words were not wrong?Is love so fragile?

Suddenly someone hugged me gently, I turned my face and looked up, and saw his proud eyes asking the old man, "Sir, do you ever regret arguing with your wife?"

"Haha. Maybe it is." The old man shook his head and smiled wryly. "However, there is a huge difference in age between me and her. She married me because of her parents' coercion. She doesn't like an old man like me at all! I will regret it, and it is also out of my responsibility as a husband. Then I figured it out, maybe it was a good thing for her to leave like this.”

Then the prince turned his face and looked down, his loving eyes seemed to tell me: "Marriage is marriage, love is love. Sometimes the two may not coexist. But if marriage can be built on love, then this couple You can have eternity."

I blushed from his eyes.

I rolled my eyes shyly, and I was too shy to remember what happened afterwards.But I remember that I was hanging out with him by the lake, and the colorful lanterns banned the starlight in the night sky.The crowd around me laughed and walked by, but it was I who held hands with him, resting my head on his arm, walking slowly, just like the happy double shadows reflected in the lake.

"Really... Guess, is what the old man said true?..."

"What are you talking about?"

"It says that we will stay together forever and live happily ever after."

"certainly."

Hearing his answer, I sniggered.Although I probably feel that the old man just now is a liar, all I need is an affirmative answer from the prince.As long as he says he is willing to stay with me forever, then it doesn't matter whether that promise can be fulfilled or whether I can grow old with him or not.

As long as he loves me, what name do we follow and what does it matter?

"Go home?" he said suddenly.

I was a little taken aback. "Home"... It's great to be able to go home with him.

"Yeah." I nodded shyly and smiled.

The two of us strolled hand in hand, but it was still late at night, and there were still many men and women walking side by side on the street.

At this time, I passed by a dignified mansion, and the plaque on the gate read "The Prefect's Mansion".

I was startled suddenly. "By the way! Brother Mo was seriously injured that day, and Brother Qian sent him to see a doctor... What happened to them after that?!"

But he felt displeased on his face next to him, and said coldly, "Because of the Eighth Prince, all the members of the Mo family were imprisoned. But I heard that there is no Second Young Master Mo among them."

"why?!"

He looked hesitant, and finally told me, "You disappeared that day, and the first person I thought of was Qian Shu. Your younger brother was there at the time. He beat Qian Shu worse than Mo Wenxi. Second Young Master Mo I was scared, and said that his father had been watching you, and suspected that his father ordered someone to take you away. As soon as your brother heard this, he ran to find you. I was worried that your brother would kill them if he came back. , sent them out of the capital secretly, and told them not to come back for a while.”

I took his arm, staring in astonishment.Xiaoxi... Hurt someone...? !My innocent, helpless younger brother...could actually call for murder? ! "But... I remember that Xiao Xi couldn't even pick up an ax... how could he hurt people...?"

"Xue'er." The prince gently covered my hand, "Although I don't know what kind of person your brother was when he left you, but he is indeed very good at martial arts now, and his internal strength is not bad. No, it should be said that he is not inferior. An excellent killer in Shangciyuan."

I was hesitant, but I couldn't help being angry.Who is it!Turn my Xiaoxi into a cold-blooded killer? !Why did he become so easy to say kill? !

"However, if your brother hadn't used Shangciyuan's contacts in private, I really don't know when I would be able to find you. In fact, your brother still loves you very much. He is your younger brother and your relative. No matter he Whatever you do, it will only be to protect you."

"Really..." Fortunately, when I was flustered, he reminded me that Xiaoxi is still my younger brother.But... "You said... Xiaoxi became like this because of me? Is it because of me that he left the village to work and joined Shangciyuan?!"

Then he sighed, hugged me into his arms and comforted me, "What nonsense. His present is because of his past decisions. There are many jobs that can make money, but he chose to be a killer. Besides, you don't know yet Why did he choose Shangciyuan? I heard that it is not easy to join Shangciyuan. Your brother probably became the killer of Shangciyuan for special reasons."

I lay in his arms and listened to his explanation, but what reassured me the most was the sound of his heartbeat. "Really...do you know where Xiaoxi is now?..."

"I'm sorry Xue'er... I have ordered someone to inquire, but so far there is still no news."

"Yeah..." I shook my head weakly, "Forget it...His Royal Highness spent a year without hearing from Xiaoxi, I think...Xiaoxi will come back one day, right?..."

"Of course. He loves his brother the most."

"Hee..." I sighed helplessly.Looking up from his arms, he saw that soothing smile. "We go home?"

"Okay." Then under the lights, he slowly leaned over, his eyes shining with colorful brilliance.Those proud thin lips raised a doting smile, aroused my heartbeat, and dimmed the noise on the street. "Xueer." His deep voice echoed in my world.I grinned, raised my head on tiptoe, closed my eyes obsessively, and felt his lips kissed.

At this moment, time really stands still.

I already have eternity with him.
