Han Yixiao looked incredulous: "Mom, if this feeling can be transferred, is it still a feeling? Growing up, the child only regarded Bingbing as his sister, and there was absolutely no personal relationship between the children."

"I didn't have it before, but I can have it now. Relationships are cultivated. Bingbing is no worse than Bai Jiu. You will know after getting along with her. She is knowledgeable, sensible, gentle and well-behaved. Such a woman is the most suitable wife, and Bai Jiu How can a girl like Jiu, who wields swords and guns, travels around the world, and goes to war, be able to be a good wife and mother with peace of mind! So my mother thinks that Bingbing is more suitable for you, and she really likes Bingbing. She I will be happy to marry you." Mother said easily.

But Han Yixiao couldn't accept it: "Mother, please don't force the child. The child promises you that he will never have anything to do with Bai Jiu again. Please mother, please don't force the child to marry Bingbing. That is irresponsible to Bingbing."

"You are irresponsible to the Han family. You are the only child in our Han family. You shoulder the important task of passing on the family line and continuing the fragrance of the Han family. However, you are still unmarried. Are you planning to cut off the Han family

You keep saying you forget Bai Jiu, but have you really forgotten her in your heart? Can you keep her out of your mind? If you really forget about Bai Jiu and Bingbing brings you food during dinner, you won't reject her so much.

As long as you don't invest in a new relationship for a day, you can't forget Bai Jiu. Your mother has decided to let you marry Bingbing. Your mother will give you a few days to get along with Bingbing. After a few days, your mother will send people to Jiangnan Wu. Propose marriage at home. "

"Mother, please don't do this. The child will not agree." Han Yixiao's attitude was very insistent.

"Xiao'er, do you want to piss your mother off to death? She wants to see you start a family as soon as possible, see you continue your legacy, and let her die in peace in the future."

"Mother-"

"Okay, if you have something to do, go get busy! Mother will ask someone to take care of it." Mrs. Han's attitude was also very firm.

"Mother-"

Mrs. Han waved her hand: "Okay, mother is tired, you can go down first!"

Han Yixiao cupped his hands and said respectfully: "Please mother, please think twice and leave the child."

Looking at her son's leaving figure, Mrs. Han shook her head helplessly. She didn't want to force her son, but if she didn't do this, how could she make her son forget Bai Jiu? Bai Jiu had been sentenced to death. If he was not allowed to devote himself as soon as possible, A new relationship, I'm afraid that if Bai Jiu dies, he will never be able to get over his love for Bai Jiu, and he will suffer for the rest of his life. That is what she, a mother, doesn't want to see, so now she only hopes that he can get over it as soon as possible Forget Bai Jiu and fall in love with another woman again.

Seeing the old lady's frown, Qiu He walked to the old lady and massaged the old lady's temples thoughtfully, saying distressedly: "Old lady, do you have a headache again?" After being with the old lady for so many years, he knew the old lady very well. , as long as she has something on her mind, the old lady will not be able to sleep well and will have a headache. Now the matter between the young master and General Bai has made the old lady very upset, and she has not rested for several days.

The old lady sighed helplessly and said: "Xiao'er has been obedient since he was a child, but this time when facing Bai Jiu, I'm really afraid that he won't be able to control his heart. I've also been through it, and I know that this relationship is the saddest one. Yes, heroes have been saddened by beauty since ancient times, and I am really worried that Xiaoer will ignore her for Bai Jiu, and even forget her father's revenge."

Qiu He comforted: "Old madam, the young master can't do that. The young master has been calm and sensible since he was a child, and rarely worries the old madam. How could the young master not know that the hatred for killing his father is irreconcilable! He has severed ties with General Bai. It means that the young master has not forgotten his grudge. The old lady is worrying too much."

"Oh! I also hope that I am worrying too much. Since he can give up Bai Jiu, why can't he accept Bingbing! Only by marrying another woman early can we forget Bai Jiu as soon as possible and get over the sadness." The old lady sighed. road.

Qiu He hesitated and asked: "Old Madam, do you really think Miss Bingbing is suitable for the young master? The old Madam was so optimistic about General Bai before -" Qiu He did not dare to say the following words, knowing the old Madam's hatred of the Mo family, so Afraid of angering the old lady.

This time, Mrs. Han's mood was quite calm. When others mentioned the Mo family in front of her, she felt calm. As long as her son did not get close to the Mo family or be deceived by the Mo family, he would not forget it. If she wants to avenge her father, she will avenge her father. She won't be too angry no matter what other people think.

Mrs. Han thought for a while and sighed: "I admit that Bai Jiu is indeed good and a good match for Xiao Er. It's a pity that she is the daughter of the Mo family and is destined to have no fate with Xiao Er.

As for Bingbing, although she is not as capable as Bai Jiu, she has a good personality and a good temper. Perhaps her personality can complement Xiaoer, and she may be more suitable as a wife. "But if the young master doesn't like Miss Bingbing, even if the old lady forces them to get married, will they really be happy?" "Qiu He asked worriedly. After so many years in the Han family, the old lady and the young master have been very good to her. They treat her like a family member. She is a few years older than the young master. The young master is like a younger brother in his heart, so he hopes that the young master will Live happily.

Whenever Mrs. Han thought about the Mo family and that Bai Jiu's approach to his son might be instigated by Mo Changxiao, she became so angry that she couldn't think normally. She unconsciously said in a cold tone: "This relationship between husband and wife As long as they get along day and night, Xiaoer will have feelings. Xiaoer doesn't like Bingbing now because he can't forget Bai Jiu. When Bai Jiu is killed, he and Bingbing get married. As a man and husband, he will definitely treat Bingbing. Responsible, Bingbing will definitely be able to break into Xiao'er's heart with her tenderness and make Xiaoer fall in love with her. I know my son best, as long as he marries this girl, he will definitely He is responsible for the responsibilities of a husband. So he must marry Bingbing. There is no one more suitable for him now than Bingbing. He has no choice but to think about the important matter of marriage. He should have opened up branches and leaves for the Han family long ago. "

Qiu He saw that the old lady was a little angry and didn't dare to say anything more.

Han Yixiao came to the military camp and stepped into the gate of the military camp. The scene of Bai Jiu smiling and waving to her and greeting him enthusiastically appeared in his mind, and the corners of his lips unconsciously raised.

"General!" The patrolling soldiers greeted him respectfully when they saw him.

Han Yixiao's wandering thoughts were brought back. Bai Jiu disappeared in front of him, and he had another fantasy. He took a deep breath and walked towards the camp, telling himself not to think about her again.

Prince Lu's Mansion outside Kyoto

Princess Lu finally caught her sister. Although this sister lived in Prince Lu's Mansion, she could not be seen all day long. It was not easy to see her.

"Nuan Nuan, you are finally back. Where have you been these past few days?" Princess Lu saw her travel-worn sister and walked up to ask.

Huo Nuannuan smiled brightly at her sister and said, "Sister, Nuannuan has been around the world in the past few days. Go out and get some fresh air."

"Breathe some air? Are you bored staying in Prince Lu's Mansion?" My elder sister glared at my younger sister displeased, pulled her into the room, sat down, and wanted to have a good chat with my younger sister.

Although they are sisters from the same father and mother, the personalities of the two sisters are really very different. Princess Lu is quiet and gentle. When she was not married before, she was content to stay in her confidant. Now that she is married, she can be a good wife and mother. , possessing the three obedience and four virtues that were standard for ancient women.

But what about Huo Nuannuan! She was also the rich daughter of Lord Marquis, but she never wanted to stay quietly in the house and be a young lady. When she was very young, she started to learn martial arts and pestered her parents all day long. Later, they couldn't do anything anymore. So he sent her to the martial arts world to learn martial arts from a good friend of her mother, who was Nuannuan's current master.

I thought she was just curious and wanted to study for a few days and then come back when she was tired. Who knew that she would become addicted to studying and would not come back unless she got some grades.

Later, her parents indulged her and allowed her to follow her own temper. The Huo family had no sons. They were two sisters. The elder sister was gentle and well-behaved. , so her parents raised her as a boy since she was a child.

She thought that after she completed her studies, she would be able to return to the mansion early and stay at home with peace of mind. Who knew that after she completed her studies, she would no longer want to stay at home and would run around all day without seeing anyone.

Now that she is older, her parents want to find someone to marry her as soon as possible, so they are honest. Who knows, when they heard that she was getting married, they came directly to her. She was about to give birth at that time, and it was inconvenient to have a big belly. She told her parents to come here to accompany her sister and take care of her, and their parents agreed. They thought she was quite considerate, so they agreed to her coming. They also hoped that she would stay with her sister and learn from her sister's knowledge and ethics.

As a sister, I thought that after she came here, I would be able to persuade her and teach her the rules and etiquette. Who knew that after arriving at Prince Lu's Mansion, she still ran away all day long without seeing anyone. Now she has been staying there for more than a year, There was no chance to have a good chat with her. Her father had already sent several letters home, urging her to go back.

Princess Lu really felt that her daughter and sister had neglected their duties. She finally caught her sister today and she must have a good talk with her.

Facing her sister's question, Huo Nuannuan smiled and joked: "Sister, you like to stay in Prince Lu's Mansion and don't feel bored because you are accompanied by your brother-in-law. You and your wife are very affectionate, so naturally you don't want to go out! But little sister If you stay here without someone you like to accompany you, you will feel bored! So I still think the outside world is more exciting."

"You, you have many reasons. When you were at home when you were a child, you were accompanied by your parents, but you didn't like to stay in the house!" said my sister rudely.

Huo Nuannuan laughed, scratched her head, and said truthfully: "Because Nuannuan and sister's personalities are really different. Sister likes to be quiet, like to stay in a gorgeous gold birdcage, and likes to be pampered and protected from the wind. Shelter from the rain. But Nuan Nuan doesn’t like that kind of life. Nuan Nuan is a wild bird and likes a life of freedom and vastness, so she doesn’t like to be bored at home every day.”

"You! It's time to restrain your temper. If you keep acting like this, who would dare to marry you! Is it possible for someone to marry a wife but not see her every day?" My sister sighed helplessly.

However, Huo Nuannuan said optimistically: "No one dares to marry Zhao! I will never marry and don't have to be controlled. How wonderful!"

"You kid, what are you talking about? Girls have to get married and have children when they grow up. Mom and Dad have written again, asking you to go home early. Your marriage to Cousin Yuhua can't be delayed any longer. You said before that you were young and wanted to stay with your parents for two more years. Cousin Yuhua, aunt, and uncle didn't say anything, but now that you are eighteen years old, it's time to get married, and you can't delay it any longer. My parents have already checked with someone, and they say that your and Cousin Yuhua's birth dates are very suitable for getting married this year. My parents hope that you will rush back as soon as possible to see the date and get married soon."

Hearing her sister mention her marriage, the smile on Huo Nuannuan's face disappeared. She sighed, looked at her sister and asked for help: "Sister, I really don't want to get married yet. Can you talk to my parents about it in two years?" ah!"

The elder sister looked at her younger sister and asked seriously: "What else do you want to delay? Cousin Yuhua really likes you. He is five years older than you. Logically speaking, he should have gotten married long ago, but he has been waiting for you. With the strength of my cousin’s family, how many women want to marry him, but he only has you in his heart. He really likes you. If you miss him, I’m afraid you will never find anyone who loves you more than him. Nuannuan, Don't miss out on your good marriage just because you are playful."

"I know cousin Yuhua is very kind to me, but I really don't want to get married now." Huo Nuannuan said distressedly.

Princess Lu looked at her sister and asked, "Nuan Nuan, are you worried about something? Or do you have someone you like in your heart?"

Huo Nuannuan immediately waved her hand: "No, no, I don't have anyone I like in my heart. I just feel that I am still young and don't want to be restrained now. I won't be able to adapt to a new environment."

Hearing what her sister said, Princess Lu smiled: "If you are worried about the new environment, you don't have to worry. My aunt and uncle like you very much. Once you get married, it will be like being in your own home. You don't have to worry about the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law not getting along well. People like you With such a personality, if you marry someone else, your parents will definitely be worried. What kind of mother-in-law can you get along with with a personality like yours? But you don’t have to worry about marrying Yuhua’s cousin. Your mother-in-law is your aunt, and they will love her very much. your."

"I-" Huo Nuannuan wanted to say something more, but found that she had nothing to say. Her sister had said all her worries and resolved them. What other excuse could she make? But she really doesn't want to marry Cousin Yuhua, because she only regards him as her brother. She really feels awkward when she thinks that after they get married, he will be her husband. They get to know each other day and night and sleep in the same bed.

Seeing her sister's hesitation, Princess Lu smiled, took her hand and comforted her: "Nuan Nuan, sister knows what you are worried about. Girls will always have some worries about getting married, and they will be timid. , you will be afraid. Even if you marry into your aunt’s house, you will still have a lot of worries. My sister also had such worries before marrying your brother-in-law, but it will be fine once you get married. You will definitely be very happy when you marry cousin Yuhua. Yes, Cousin Yuhua has a very good character and is not too fussy. When he gets married in the future, he will only treat you wholeheartedly and will not do anything sorry to you. You don’t have to worry.

Don't let your parents worry. In two days, my sister will send someone to take you home, okay? "

My sister had tried so hard to persuade me, how could Huo Nuannuan still say anything bad? He could only nod his head: "Okay, Nuan Nuan will listen to my sister."

Princess Lu breathed a sigh of relief: "My parents will be very happy when they know you are going back. Nuan Nuan, go to the city with your sister to buy some things for your parents to take back."

Huo Nuannuan nodded: "Okay."

In the front hall of Prince Lu's Mansion, Chu Lingxiao suddenly came today.

Prince Lu looked at Chu Lingxiao who came unexpectedly, with a look of surprise on his face: "Prime Minister, what kind of wind blew you here today?" Because they were cousins, it was inevitable that they would make some jokes when they met.

No matter where he went, Chu Lingxiao always felt like he was at his own home. He found a seat and sat down unceremoniously, poured a cup of tea and took a sip: "Of course I miss my cousin Lu! I haven't seen him for a long time. Cousin Lu is here, so come and see Cousin Lu.”

Prince Lu smiled in disbelief. Although he has always been in contact with Chu Lingxiao and their relationship is pretty good, the number of times he comes to Prince Lu's Mansion is very few. One is in the shopping mall and the other is in the court. They are usually very busy, so they rarely get together. Every time I come here, I come only if something happens. I don’t know if there is anything going on today.

"Don't be poor. I'm here today. Do you have anything to do?" Prince Lu sat down, stopped joking, looked at him seriously and asked.

Chu Lingxiao still sat on the chair with a lazy look, crossed his legs, and swayed leisurely: "Nothing happened! I just had nothing to do and chatted with Cousin Lu." While speaking, his eyesight changed. I unconsciously looked outside, muttering to myself: Why didn't I see that wild girl Huo Nuannuan? Did he run out to play again

Prince Lu has been in the mall for so many years and has never seen anyone. Although Chu Lingxiao is the prime minister of a country, his abnormal behavior and his casual glance outside have long exposed that he is not just here for free today. The person who came to chat with him did not expose him, but said politely: "If you are just here to chat, then my cousin is really busy today and cannot chat with you. You should come back another day!"

"Farewell, cousin! Your prime minister's cousin, I finally came to your place. No matter how busy you are, you still have to take some time to accompany me! How can you issue an expulsion order? I have to use it in your house today. I won’t leave until dinner.”

Prince Lu looked at Chu Lingxiao suspiciously and said, "Lingxiao, what's the matter with you? You're the master of the Three Treasures Palace who doesn't have anything to do. Do you really have time to chat? As a prime minister, how can you have such leisure time?"

Chu Lingxiao still said leisurely: "Today's Huachen Kingdom, under the governance of the emperor, is peaceful and prosperous, so I, the prime minister, have some time to spare, at least I am not busy today."

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from outside. Chu Lingxiao's eyes lit up and he immediately looked outside.

Princess Lu and Huo Nuannuan walked in. They didn't expect Chu Lingxiao to be here and were surprised.

Princess Lu nodded slightly and said, "So the Prime Minister is here. My husband, have we disturbed your discussion?"

Before Prince Lu could speak, Chu Lingxiao took the lead and said, "No, no, I was chatting with my cousin! Cousin Lu, long time no see. How are you? My cousin is getting more and more beautiful."

Princess Lu smiled: "Prime Minister, please stop teasing me. We are all mothers, so how can we be beautiful?"

Chu Lingxiao said with a serious face: "After becoming a mother, I have become more charming and beautiful. No wonder my cousin wants to drive me away! Did I disturb my cousin from accompanying my cousin?"

Princess Lu smiled shyly: "Prime Minister, please stop teasing me."

Huo Nuannuan rolled her eyes at him with disdain and mocked, "Flattery."

Although he muttered in a low voice, the volume was enough for Chu Lingxiao to hear. Zhengchou couldn't find an excuse to talk to Huo Nuannuan! After hearing what she said, he immediately looked at her and said displeasedly: "Huo Nuannuan, who are you calling a flatterer? I'm obviously telling the truth, don't you think your sister is beautiful?"

Huo Nuannuan teased angrily: "My sister is naturally beautiful, but there is no need for you to be afraid of flattery here."

After hearing this, Chu Lingxiao smiled instead of being angry. He came closer to her and said, "Are you jealous because I praised my cousin? But to be honest, although you and your cousin are biological sisters, why are the two biological sisters so different? There's such a big difference! Cousin Lu is so beautiful, but you don't look like a woman at all. Tsk tsk tsk, a woman like you is really afraid that she won't be able to marry in the future." He looked Huo Nuannuan up and down and shook his head. sigh.

Huo Nuannuan suppressed her blush and glared at him: "I don't worry about whether I can get married or not. You'd better take care of yourself! For a man like you who is venomous and romantic, You should be worried that no woman will marry you!"

Chu Lingxiao said arrogantly: "Hahaha, it's really funny. For such an outstanding man like me, how many women are crying and wanting to marry me!"

Huo Nuannuan pretended to be retching.

Chu Lingxiao said angrily: "Huo Nuannuan, what do you mean?"

Huo Nuannuan said rudely and disparagingly: "I have seen shameless people, but I have never seen you so shameless. I have seen disgusting people, and I have never seen you so disgusting. Fortunately, it is the afternoon and I have not eaten, otherwise it would be really bad. It will make you sick and vomit."

"You, you damn girl, how dare you say that to me? I think you are tired of living!" Chu Lingxiao shouted angrily. No one has ever dared to disparage him like this!

How could Huo Nuannuan be afraid of Chu Lingxiao? She raised her chin and said with disdain: "I don't know who is tired of living! I haven't been beaten in this period, so my skin is itchy, isn't it?"

The two were at war with each other and were about to fight.

Seeing this, Prince Lu and Princess Lu spoke up. Prince Lu said, "Ling Xiao, Nuan Nuan is a girl. Aren't you usually quite sympathetic to Nuan Nuan? Why do you speak so harshly to Nuan Nuan?"

Chu Lingxiao said rudely and disparagingly: "Can she also be considered a woman?"

"Are you looking for a beating?" Huo Nuannuan clenched her fist and was about to hit Chu Lingxiao.

Seeing this, Princess Lu took her sister's arm: "Nuan Nuan, stop messing around. How can you be so unruly in front of the Prime Minister! Apologize to the Prime Minister quickly."

Chu Lingxiao raised her eyebrows proudly and looked at Huo Nuannuan, waiting for her apology. This stinky girl is really ignorant. He put down a day's work and came here to see her. He didn't expect her to be so rude when they met. It's really irritating. How could there be such an irritating girl in the world! If she has the sense to apologize obediently, he can forgive her generously. If she dares not to apologize, he will definitely make her look good.

Huo Nuannuan's temper was not ordinary. She glared at Chu Lingxiao and said disdainfully: "Huh! Let me apologize to him, unless the sun rises in the west."

Chu Lingxiao said angrily: "Huo Nuannuan, don't toast me and you'll have to drink the wine as a penalty!"

Huo Nuannuan said disdainfully: "I'm telling you, I won't drink any wine. It depends on what you can do to me."

Chu Lingxiao felt that he was very shameless. Even though he was bullied by her behind his back, he was the prime minister of the country. But in front of others, she did not give him any face. This made him feel very embarrassed. He must not be embarrassed in front of everyone. To save face, Chu Lingxiao straightened up and said: "Huo Nuannuan, you were unreasonable to me before and I won't let you care about it. Don't think that I am really afraid of you. I think you are a girl and I don't have the same experience as you." , if you don’t know what’s good and what’s good and push your limits, then don’t blame me for being rude to you, don’t think that I can’t beat you, let me tell you, my prime minister’s martial arts is still very powerful.”

Huo Nuannuan raised her eyebrows in pretense of surprise, but sneered unceremoniously: "Hey! I didn't expect you to come with courage today. I thought the prime minister of a country didn't have courage! Yes, you look a bit like a man today. .”

"You, you dare to say that I don't look like a man. Today I will let you know what a man is. Do you dare to go out with me and try it? I will let you see what a real man is." Chu Lingxiao said with a look on his face. of confidence.

However, Huo Nuannuan said without fear: "Huh! Okay! Whoever is afraid of you, just don't beg for mercy later."

...
