But at the same time, the Empress Dowager had a condition. This condition was naturally not based on Yi's decree. Instead, Sun Qi asked Sun Qi to take the lead, that is, to marry Fang Jinyan after Fang Jinyan turns fifteen. Fang Jinyan will be fifteen in two months. Years old, so to speak, the Queen Mother is really anxious and thoughtful for her daughter!
Sun Qi thought that Fang Jinyan would be a little unhappy. After all, his brother's future was exchanged for his own future, and it was only two months later. But no, after hearing this, Fang Jinyan just put his head on the ground, held his hands on the ground, and used The most respectful etiquette, and then said respectfully: "It's all based on the Queen Mother's wishes. Jin Yan is grateful."
After Sun Qi happily returned to the palace with Fang Jinyan's words, Bai Hong still muttered dissatisfiedly: "Is it too small?"
Fang Jinyan knew that Bai Hong just felt sorry for her. Although she was no longer a member of the Fang family, they would not be able to decide on her marriage, and Dong Yuexi would not have the chance to use herself to earn a better future for the Fang family. However, she also She couldn't fight for it on her own. If she hadn't agreed, her brother would have been snatched away by the Fang family right away. She couldn't even think about it, how could a kind and gentle mother plus a baby waiting to be fed be safe?
"Sister, don't worry about me. Sooner or later you will get married anyway, but whoever marries a sick man like me will probably regret it."
Bai Hong sighed, gently held Fang Jinyan in his arms, and said, "Didn't you say you don't want to marry a man with three wives and four concubines? This time"
Fang Jinyan smiled, looked at Bai Hong confidently, and said: "I agreed to the Queen Mother's marriage, but I did not agree to the Queen Mother who I should marry."
Bai Hong was puzzled and said: "Jinyan, this is who the Queen Mother pointed out to you. Who do you want to marry?"
Fang Jinyan disagreed and said: "When the time comes for me to marry, I will tell the Queen Mother to either let me choose someone or agree to my request. Otherwise, I would rather step down than marry a man I don't love. This is our bottom line, Fang Jinyan.¡±
Bai Hong discovered that Fang Jinyan and the emperor were actually quite similar, but the emperor seemed to have suddenly become quiet recently. This made others look as if the whole little emperor was just playing for fun. Fortunately, Fang Jinyan didn't know the truth of the matter, otherwise she wouldn't know how to hate this emperor.
Bai Hong was about to say something but stopped, she wanted to say, Jin Yan. Don¡¯t you always have Brother Huaishan in your heart?
But she still resisted asking, because she knew that Fang Jinyan, a child, always puts her family first in her heart, which is why she likes and pities her.
On this day, Fang Jinyan woke up early in the morning and no longer slept, so she got up and walked in the garden. Now most of the flowers and plants in the garden have declined, and the red plum and wintersweet trees newly planted by Zhuo Qiaoniang have no signs of blooming yet. So the whole garden looked very depressed.
Fang Jinyan did not wake up Zi Yuan, who was sleeping in the Nuang Pavilion for the night. She got dressed alone and carefully opened the door and walked out. Seeing Fang Jinyan signal to be quiet, the maid waiting outside the door quietly watched Fang Jinyan put on her cloak. Out the door. Then he asked two maids serving in the outer room to follow him from a distance.
It was dawn, and there was a hint of night chill and moisture in the air. A smell of hay spread in the air, which made Fang Jinyan feel that it was a smell that could only be smelled in the countryside. Very kind and natural.
Coming out of Zhexiang Garden, I walked to the gate unknowingly. The women and servants who were cleaning the garden quickly knelt down and saluted when they saw Fang Jinyan. Fang Jinyan nodded and smiled, and then walked out the door.
"What are you doing here? Why don't you quickly find two people who know kung fu to follow the princess? If something happens, be careful of your skin!" When the housekeeper saw the two maids following him, he didn't know whether to follow or go back to look for them. Man, he said in a hurry.
Fang Jinyan had just stepped out of the alley when she suddenly saw a very familiar carriage approaching her from the alley. Before she could remember where she had seen this carriage before, she saw a head sticking out of the car.
"Second son of the Wang family, why are you here?" Fang Jinyan looked at the man who poked his head out of the car in surprise. His already big eyes were now even wider.
"Hurry up and get in the car. We have something to say in the car." After saying that, before Fang Jinyan could recover, she was already dragged into the car by the other party, and then she heard the sound of horse hooves disappearing in the morning light.
Fang Jinyan entered the carriage, and then she realized that the carriage, which didn't look like much on the outside, was actually very rich and full of content. Not only was there food to eat, but also the things to use were all exquisite beyond description. .
"Second son of the Wang family, why are you running to the entrance of our alley so early in the morning?" Fang Jinyan took the warm water glass handed over by "Wang Zhimo". You could tell by looking at this water glass.It is made of fine white jade. It is very comfortable to hold in your hand, and it does not feel too hot. The temperature is just right for the palm of your hand.
Wang Zhimo smiled, pointed at Fang Jinyan¡¯s cup and said, ¡°Take a drink and see if it tastes like what you¡¯ve always wanted to drink?¡±
Fang Jinyan knew that Wang Zhimo wouldn¡¯t tell her anything if she didn¡¯t drink. After not seeing her for two months, Wang Zhimo seemed to be whiter but thinner. It seemed like she was really sick.
Fang Jinyan took a sip obediently and immediately smiled. Wang Zhimo said: "Every time I see you happy because of the things I find for you, I am happier than you."
In fact, these were just mentioned by Fang Jinyan inadvertently when chatting with Wang Zhimo on weekdays, but every time Wang Zhimo wrote them down carefully and did it for her one by one, she was naturally moved and happy.
"How is it? Does it taste good?"
Fang Jinyan nodded and looked at the snacks on the table in front of her. They were all her favorites. She actually didn't know that for the past month, Wang Zhimo had been dressing up as a little eunuch every night and secretly taking her to Xiaoluzi. Leave the palace, then lurk in Fang Jinyan's Zhexiang Garden, and then rush back to the palace for the morning court before dawn.
For a month, his sleep time was almost only after the court was over during the day. In order to prevent Lu Yuening and the Queen Mother from becoming suspicious, more often than not, he would ask a few ministers who he trusted and were close to to accompany him in the study room. On the surface, he said he was discussing business, but in fact, he just wanted everyone to sleep with him for a while.
Fang Jinyan has always been carefree in front of Wang Zhimo, so she was not polite. She held a cup in one hand and a flower cake in the other, enjoying it with great enjoyment.
At this time, Xiao Luzi, who was driving the carriage, did not expect that Fang Jinyan would actually go out today. It would be such a good opportunity for the emperor to meet and talk to Fang Jinyan. Naturally, he was happy for his master, but the time to go to court was coming. What should he do? Woolen cloth?
"Master, it's time for you to go to morning class. Otherwise, if master finds out, you should blame me." Xiaoluzi couldn't help but stop the car and whispered outside the car.
Fang Jinyan chuckled, finished eating snacks and drinking water, and then said to the path outside the car: "Don't worry, if you don't send me back now, the Leng family will probably search the whole city, so go back quickly Well, don¡¯t come over early in the morning to wait for me in the future.¡±
After hearing this, Xiaoluzi bowed gratefully to the unexpected air in front of him, and then drove back.
"Jin Yan, I just saw you, and you're going to drive me away?" Wang Zhimo felt unwilling.
Seeing Wang Zhimo's pitiful look, Fang Jinyan smiled and consoled her: "I see that your complexion is still not good, which means your illness has not improved, so you should go back early to rest."
Wang Zhimo couldn't help but said: "It's too difficult to come out now, and you don't see me." After saying that, he pouted like a child, looking very cute.
Fang Jinyan couldn't bear it, thinking about the dream she had that day in the palace, and said, "Do you know? I went to the palace once, and I had a dream in the palace."
Wang Zhimo asked: "What dream?"
Fang Jinyan smiled and said, "I dreamed about you."
Wang Zhimo was happy, pulling Fang Jinyan's sleeve and saying, "What did you dream about me?"
Fang Jinyan smiled strangely and said, "You told me that you were getting married, so I shouldn't be angry with you."
After hearing this, Wang Zhimo's heart trembled. This silly girl, she actually always thought it was a dream, yes! How wonderful it would be if it was really a dream!
"Haha, if I really get married, don't you want to see me anymore?" Wang Zhimo didn't dare to look at Fang Jinyan when he said this, although so far, he had never even touched Lu Yuening's hand.
"Don't worry, why would I be angry with you?" Fang Jinyan said to Wang Zhimo with a smile.
Wang Zhimo felt a lot of emotions in her heart at this time. She didn't know whether she should be happy or sad. What was happy was that she was not angry, so she could still meet and talk like today. What was sad was that if she had herself in her heart, then she should be sad. ExplanationNo!
Soon the carriage drove back to the front door of the Leng family. Wang Zhimo personally helped Fang Jinyan out of the car. Seeing Fang Jinyan walking to the door, she suddenly caught up with him and grabbed Fang Jinyan's hand regardless of the surprised look of the concierge.
"Promise me something, okay?"
Fang Jinyan turned around and smiled sweetly at Wang Zhimo, nodded and said yes.
Wang Zhimo thought for a while and said, "No matter what I do in the future, please don't be angry with me or ignore me, okay?"
Fang Jinyan smiled and said: "Like a child, I want to"I learned how you became someone¡¯s husband. "
Wang Zhimo wants to say, I only want to be your husband, Fang Jinyan, but you don¡¯t want it!
"Promise me!"
Fang Jinyan nodded helplessly, and Wang Zhimo leaned forward and whispered in her ear: "There is one more thing, please promise me."
When Fang Jinyan saw that he was cheating, she threw his hand away and pretended to be angry: "It's obviously one thing, why is there another one?"
