"Lord Hou—"
Bo Ruoyou grabbed Huo Weilou, she had a slender figure, but with all her strength, Huo Weilou stopped.
Huo Weilou looked back, "What?"
Bo Ruoyou didn't know whether to laugh or cry, because she was afraid that he would not listen, she grabbed him with both hands, "Wait a minute, Lord Hou, why did Lord Hou take me to the eldest princess's mansion? To see the eldest princess?"
Huo Weilou laughed, "Why else would I take you there?"
Bo Ruoyou's face turned pale when she heard that, "Why did Lord Hou take me to see the eldest princess?"
Huo Weilou was a little inexplicable, "You haven't seen it, so I'll take you there."
Bo Ruoyou tried hard to pull Huo Weilou back, but she couldn't pull it back, so she began to struggle, "Master, I...why am I going to meet the eldest princess, and in what capacity? How should I answer?"
Huo Weilou calmed down and said: "My mother...is not as scary as you think when she is ill."
Bo Ruoyou blushed, and couldn't help shaking her head, "No, I won't go, I don't want to go—"
The two had been away for a few days, and Bo Ruoyou had already settled down a lot compared to those two days in the Hou's Mansion, but she never expected that when Huo Weilou came back, he would take her to see the eldest princess, she suddenly panicked again .
Seeing her reluctance all over, Huo Weilou frowned slightly, "You don't want to see what my mother looks like?"
Bo Ruoyou continued to shake his head, Huo Weilou frowned even tighter, seeing her thin lips slightly pursed, not saying a word, but not loosening his hands, as usual, Bo Ruoyou felt quite nervous, and felt uneasy at the bottom of his heart Wronged again, the redness on his face receded, and he became a little annoyed, "Master Hou, how should I tell Lord Hou, you took me to see His Royal Highness the Princess, Her Royal Highness must be because you are so determined about me, After that, a lot of troubles inevitably happened, I... "
"I've always been determined about you." Huo Weilou's phoenix eyes were deep, "You still don't believe me?"
Bo Ruoyou's heart skipped a beat, "Believe me, believe me, I believe it, but Lord Hou, when it comes to men and women, you want to be happy with each other, and you are willing. Although you understand your mind, you don't care if I want it or not. After you asked me, you wanted to bring this matter to light, how can there be such a reason? Besides... It is difficult for me to be my own master in front of Lord Hou, wouldn't it be even more difficult for me when I go to see His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess?"
Huo Weilou understood, and said in a deep voice, "It's not what you think."
Bo Ruoyou shook her head with a bitter face: "Then I won't go either. Lord Hou can't make his own decisions every time. Where will you put me?"
She was struggling so hard, Huo Weilou let go of her hand, the back of her hand was already red from his grip, at this moment she couldn't help turning sideways to rub her own hand, Huo Weilou looked at her, and suddenly asked: "What do you mean by this matter?" To please two people, I already please you, but you don’t have me in your heart?”
Hearing these words, Bo Ruoyou was ashamed and annoyed, she turned to look at him, but saw that his eyes were dim, but quite red, her eyes turned black and she wanted to fall down, how could anyone in the world say such words So serious, she took a deep breath, her cheeks were reddish and she turned around, "Master Hou asked me, so I told the truth, Master Hou can't blame me."
Hearing this, Huo Weilou's heart skipped a beat, but his face was calm, "Say it."
Bo Ruoyou straightened her back, and her eyes became firm, "My heart...is not without Lord Hou..."
After all, she is no thicker than Huo Weilou. It took a lot of effort to say this, but Huo Weilou's eyes lit up slightly, but he heard her say: "Your Majesty is a high-ranking and powerful man, with a dragon and a phoenix appearance. I have known you for several months, and I know him well." Diligent and self-cultivating, I respect and fear the Marquis, now, it is not an exaggeration to say that I... admire him, but do men and women in the world marry because of their admiration?"
"Hou Ye has always acted vigorously and resolutely, and he said the same thing, and it is the same for me, but this is not what I want. If I marry Hou Ye, I will do whatever the Hou Ye tells me. I am no different from a concubine, I am not looking for glory and wealth, so naturally I don't want to be so attached to Lord Hou."
After she finished speaking, she felt her palms dripping with cold sweat, and Huo Weilou's eyes darkened as she listened, and when she finished speaking, her expression made her heartstrings tense even more, and she took a half step back, "Without three matchmakers and six hires, I will Meeting His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess is even more against the rules of etiquette. It's up to me for Master Hou to act like this... In my opinion, Master Hou is not only pleased with me, but also regards me as a person of low status who can be manipulated at will. If so, What is the difference between me and those who charm and seduce the Lord, the only difference is that I am more pleasing to the Lord Hou, and I can be regarded as useful in errands."
Her face was red and white for a while, and she felt ashamed and anxious at the same time, but Huo Weilou did this every time, it was really hard for her to resist, seeing that Huo Weilou was silent, she gritted her teeth and said: "I'm being presumptuous again, if I say that Offended Lord Hou, the girl will leave the mansion, and will not dare to appear in front of Lord Hou again."
Huo Weilou looked at her deeply, Bo Ruoyou could only feel his silence was pressing, his heart beat faster and faster, suddenly he was blessed and walked out, just when she was about to pass by Huo Weilou When it passed, Huo Weilou grabbed her.
Bo Ruoyou suddenly felt her body tense up, but Huo Weilou sighed at this moment, "That's all."
He turned around and looked at Bao Ruoyou, "Etiquette is never in my heart, and I don't treat you as someone who can manipulate you at will. If you are not sure, I will make it for you. This can also save a lot of trouble, because I know, It is impossible for you to be selfless in your heart, so instead of dawdling, why not be more decisive, you entrust this life to me, and I will not let you down."
Bo Ruoyou's face was on fire as he listened, and he was angry and touched at the same time, and felt that what he was thinking was very human, "Hou Ye takes this matter... Do you think this matter is a siege? Plan first and then move, day and night Is it time to win the ticket?"
Huo Weilou looked at her noncommittally, "Although they are different, they are the same. I can still send scouts to find out the military situation in the siege area, but now I am a little uncertain about your thoughts. I expected it to be different."
Bo Ruoyou has never encountered such a difficult situation in her life. Huo Weilou doesn't know what it means to be reserved, but she has been adhering to etiquette since she was a child. Not enough, what's more, how did Hou Ye let me entrust this life to you? How did you know that you would not let me down? Hou Ye's words came out of his mouth. If I didn't know Hou Ye a little bit, I would have regarded Hou Ye as a Those glib people."
Saying that, Bo Ruoyou said helplessly in a low voice: "If anyone tells me this and I believe it, then I'm too easy to deceive."
Huo Weilou stared at her for a moment, then suddenly sighed and smiled, "Is that why you don't trust me?"
Bo Ruoyou was very aggrieved, "It's because I don't believe in Lord Hou. I am a woman from a good family, but Lord Hou doesn't treat me like a good family. I don't know why Lord Hou thinks that he can accept my entrustment, but what I think is the same as Lord Hou different."
Huo Weilou's eyes darkened slightly, "How can I be sure... I still can't understand you? It's because I can understand that I made up my mind. Once you make up your mind, gods and Buddhas are irresistible."
Bo Ruoyou's face showed fear, Huo Weilou shook his head and went back to sit by the couch, "Forget it, if you don't want to go, then don't go, come here and talk to me."
Bo Ruoyou turned to look at him, still a little uneasy in his heart, Huo Weilou raised his hand and pinched the center of his brows with some headaches, "Why are you afraid of me? Although I want to make this simple and neat, when have I ever really forced him?" you?"
Bo Ruoyou looked at him carefully for a moment, and saw that he was really not angry, so she breathed a sigh of relief. Earlier, she held back a few words in her heart, and she didn't want to understand her own thoughts. Now that she has told Huo Weilou, she felt calm. After a minute, the person was much more relaxed, so he walked two steps over and muttered: "Marriage is a lifetime event, how can it be so neat?"
Huo Weilou said angrily, "Don't I know?"
Unconvinced, Bo Ruoyou said softly: "Since this is the case, you should be cautious, Lord Hou is too hasty—"
"I've already been careful."
Huo Weilou was calm and dignified on the surface, but he was depressed in his heart. What Bo Ruoyou said clearly, he admired him at most now, but he didn't want to be his wife, and he cared a lot about the marriage. I don't even believe in his heart.
To put it simply, she is not that fond of him yet, and if she wants her heart, she can't give it easily.
Huo Weilou has never experienced such setbacks in the past 20 years. What she thought was a surefire thing, but now she has clearly discredited her.
The more Huo Weilou thought about it, the more angry he became, and suddenly thought of her trip today, so he said, "Don't talk to Lin Zhao too much in the future."
Bo Ruoyou was taken aback, never expecting that the topic would be brought up to Lin Zhao again, "I... I never talked to him, today he was very enthusiastic to help Wu catch the case, and he didn't say a few words to me .”
Huo Weilou looked at her sullenly, feeling that nothing Bo Ruoyou did satisfied him, "Do you still want to talk to him a few more words?"
Bo Ruoyou was a little confused, "Of course not."
Huo Weilou was even annoyed when he thought that he even started to care about Lin Zhao, while Bo Ruoyou seemed not to see that he was sulking, and looked at him with hesitation and timidity in his eyes.
Huo Weilou's temples twitched, he gave Bo Ruoyou another hard look, then suddenly turned around and leaned against the pillow, "Come here and help me pinch."
Bo Ruoyou came forward hesitantly, she knew Huo Weilou's old problem, she didn't feel anything when she did it before, but now she felt her hands and feet were a little restrained, when she was hesitating, Huo Weilou gritted his teeth and said: "You are just trying to annoy me isn't it?"
Bo Ruoyou still couldn't let go of her hands and feet. Hearing his words were full of patience, and her tone was inexplicably aggrieved, she bent her lips when she heard it. She stepped forward and put her hand on his forehead, The fingertips exerted force slowly, gently and meticulously, and soon made him exhale.
He closed his eyes, and Bo Ruoyou's eyes fell on his face unscrupulously. When he saw that he rarely showed such boredom, he smiled more for a while. At this time, Huo Weilou seemed to sense that her breath was not right, and suddenly opened He closed his eyes and saw that there was a smile on her face, he frowned incredulously, and immediately wanted to sit up, but Bao Ruoyou pressed him down, "Master Hou, don't move."
Her strength is nothing at all, but Huo Weilou really didn't move, but he still opened his eyes and looked at Bo Ruoyou's face. At this moment, Bo Ruoyou's fingertips fell between his eyebrows, and she will He frowned and caressed: "Master Hou is already very tired from this trip, don't worry about this now, otherwise it will be really my fault."
Huo Weilou closed his eyes and snorted again, while Bo Ruoyou rubbed her temples while talking, "It's not that I don't believe in Lord Hou, but there are few people in the world with such a strong heart as Lord Hou. No one can force you to force you, you also know what you want, what you want to do, rules and etiquette can't stop you, gods, Buddhas and ghosts can't stop you, but I'm not like that, I'm just one of the mortal beings Ordinary girl, how can I act recklessly like Lord Hou?"
Her voice was soft, and Huo Weilou could only feel the spring breeze blowing on his face, and Bo Ruoyou said again: "Master Hou said that he can understand me, and since he can understand, he should know that I can't ignore you and make a private decision For the rest of your life, you can't force me."
Huo Weilou didn't speak, but it could be seen that he was listening to her and was not dissatisfied. Bo Ruoyou stopped there, and just massaged him carefully, and soon, Bo Ruoyou clearly felt Huo Weilou's whole body They all relaxed, not long after, she even saw Huo Weilou breathing lightly, her heart moved slightly, "Master Hou?"
Called out, but Huo Weilou didn't even move his eyebrows, she hurriedly stopped, the sky outside the window was already dim, and it was getting dark, she didn't want to disturb Huo Weilou, when she was about to turn around, but Seeing that there was nothing covering Huo Weilou's body, and there was a cloak hanging on the wall in the distance, she walked over with a slight thought.
Taking off the cloak, Bo Ruoyou hesitated again when she walked to the side of the couch. The last time she kindly covered Huo Weilou with a cloak, she woke up Huo Weilou and almost killed her. She still remembers that night vividly. head.
Bo Ruoyou hesitated for a long time before leaning over again, her whole body was tense, ready for Huo Weilou to wake up, she would immediately back away, but after she put the cloak tightly on him, Huo Weilou also returned As she fell asleep, her high-hanging heart settled down, and she also breathed a sigh of relief.
She looked at Huo Weilou from a leaning distance for a moment, then straightened up and walked outside, when she came out, the lights were already lit outside, and Eunuch Fu was guarding the door, seeing her come out and greeted her.
"Eunuch, Master Hou has fallen asleep. If there is no urgent matter, you can let him rest for a while."
Eunuch Fu glanced inward, a little surprised, "Although the journey is exhausting, the Marquis has a sleepless physique, and why did he fall asleep when you were still here?"
This is really a long story, Bo Ruoyou saw that it was getting late, so he just said goodbye, Eunuch Fu sent her to the gate of the mansion to watch her leave in a carriage, and then returned to the study, poked inside the door of the study, and sure enough Huo Weilou's slow breathing was the only sound left in the silence, Eunuch Fu's expression relaxed, and he yawned too, ordered his attendants to watch outside, and went to catch up on sleep.
When Bo Ruoyou returned home, the sky was already dark, and the lights in the house were warm. Aunt Liang was serving dinner to the main hall. Bo Ruoyou accompanied Cheng Yunzhi to eat the dinner. When drinking tea after the meal, Cheng Yunzhi said: "Youyou, Do you want to go to the Yamen tomorrow?"
Bo Ruoyou thought for a moment, "Most likely nothing will happen tomorrow, but foster father is going to visit an old friend?"
Cheng Yunzhi responded with a smile, "Yes, then tomorrow morning, you will accompany your adoptive father for a walk."
Bo Ruoyou replied crisply, and did not ask who her old friend was. After returning to her room to take a bath and lie down, she remembered the words Huo Weilou said tonight. She was touched. There are many smooth talkers in this world, but they never Including Huo Weilou, a person as high as he is, if he wants a woman, he probably wouldn't bother to coax her with sweet words.
She pulled up the brocade quilt to cover her head and face, and felt the heat on her face rise again, and then thought of Huo Weilou's bored appearance later, she felt a little amused, unfeminine, incomprehensible, unreasonable, and wanted to take him to meet the elder Princess, do you want three matchmakers and six hires to marry her tomorrow
Bo Ruoyou couldn't help curling up in the brocade quilt, her heart couldn't help being moved, but her rationality was persuading herself to restrain her sobriety. She had been thinking wildly for a long time, and she didn't know when she fell asleep. , I saw a drizzle outside, and it rained.
Cheng Yunzhi said that he was going to visit an old friend, so he made all the preparations and had breakfast. The father and daughter got into the carriage together with the greeting cards and gifts. Inside Changshoufang, there are also many high-ranking officials and dignitaries in Changshoufang. Bo Ruoyou raised the curtain and looked all the way, feeling more and more curious.
"Father, who is the old man you want to visit?"
Cheng Yunzhi said with an ordinary expression: "I will know soon, you have seen it."
Bo Ruoyou was suspicious, she didn't meet many people, and after returning to Beijing, she didn't go to Uncle Zhongqin's mansion, and there were people from the yamen, could it be Sun Zhao
She was puzzled, but saw the carriage winding around, and stopped in front of a tall mansion gate after a while, but she hadn't seen the word "Lin Mansion" on the plaque before she saw the carriage parked in front of the mansion gate. She is very familiar with the frame that she has ridden many times, and it is the frame that Huo Weilou uses for daily travel.
And at this moment, two more carriages stopped in front of the mansion very quickly, and a young man jumped off from the carriage. Bo Ruoyou lifted the curtain to look, who is Bo Yixuan whom he just met yesterday? !
