This is a more difficult and embarrassing problem than not letting him marry a wife.
Pei Wenxuan didn't speak anymore, he thought in his heart, how to say the problem of his debt in a decent and elegant way.
The woman looked at him with a smile on her face, but there was a bit of playful mockery in her eyes.
After a while, Pei Wenxuan finally found some state. He was about to speak when he heard an anxious shout from outside: "Eldest son! Eldest son!"
Everyone turned their heads, and Pei Wenxuan saw that the concierge was running, and after a little thought, he knew that it might be the decree of marriage.
The servant gasped heavily, stopped in front of Pei Wenxuan, and stammered, "The imperial decree... the eldest son... the door..."
Pei Wenxuan laughed before he could finish speaking, turned around and walked out the door.
Only then did the maid who wanted the money reacted, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked the doorman, "What is the imperial decree?"
"There are people from the palace outside," the concierge exhaled, and explained aloud, "To read the imperial decree, the masters, ladies, and sons of the palace have to go there. It seems that something big is about to happen."
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other and hurried to the front yard, wanting to see what happened with their own eyes.
When Pei Wenxuan arrived at the door, the Pei family had already arrived. Pei Lixian's eldest son, Pei Wende, sneered when Pei Wenxuan came over, and said, "I usually know that the eldest brother is big, but I didn't expect the adults in the palace to come and be so big."
"Wende," Pei Lixian stood in front with his arms folded, opened his eyes slowly, and said, "Shut up."
Pei Wenxuan walked up to Pei Lixian and Pei Liwen and saluted respectfully: "Second Uncle, Third Uncle."
Then he turned to look at his mother Wen, whom he hadn't seen for a long time: "Mother."
Wen shi nodded at him, looking a little tired. After everyone in the Pei mansion arrived, Pei Lixian stepped forward and said with the eunuch holding the imperial decree: "Father-in-law, everyone in the Pei mansion is here, please."
The eunuch smiled and nodded, Pei Lixian stepped back, and heard the eunuch shout loudly: "Kneel—"
Everyone knelt down together, and the eunuch read out the decree. The content first praised Pei Wenxuan. After hearing these hype, everyone looked at Pei Wenxuan quietly.
Pei Wenxuan's expression was calm, and when he read "The Queen Mother was very pleased to hear it, Zit used her finger to marry Princess Pingle", everyone suddenly realized that the servants hiding in the distance opened their eyes and felt a little dazed.
Pei Wenxuan took the order calmly, and the eunuch looked him up and down, and then said, "Princess Pingle has always been the most favored by His Majesty, Lord Pei is very lucky."
"Borrow your father-in-law's auspicious words."
Pei Wen proclaimed the ceremony and behaved politely and modestly.
After the imperial decree was read out, the people in the palace also retreated and sent away the people in the palace. Pei Wenxuan turned around with the imperial decree and looked up at Pei Lixian.
Pei Lixian put his hands in his sleeves, and his expression was indifferent: "It is a blessing for you to receive a marriage from Your Majesty. In the future, you will serve the princess well, and don't lose the courtesy of the Pei family."
Pei Wenxuan: "..."
Originally wanted to salute, but after hearing this, he always felt that something was wrong, as if he was a newlywed...
After Pei Lixian said this, he turned his head and said to everyone, "Let's go."
Pei Lixian used to say the same thing at home. Everyone got this, and they didn't dare to stay any longer. The princess has eaten."
"Yeah," Pei Wenxuan brushed off his sleeves and said with a flat expression, "Second brother is jealous? It's a pity," Pei Wenxuan smiled lightly before Pei Wende could speak, "With the appearance of the second brother, I'm afraid there is no Princess Shang. Opportunity. In this life, apart from relying on my father, I can't rely on anything else."
"you!"
"Wen Xuan." Before Pei Wende's fire came out, Wen's hurried up. She looked anxious and glanced at Pei Wende. Seeing Wen's coming, Pei Wende couldn't argue with Pei Wenxuan anymore. Elder, I can only bow and back down.
When Pei Wende went down, Mrs Wen took Pei Wenxuan's hand and said anxiously, "Come with me."
Having said that, Wen shi dragged him to his own nursery.
Pei Wenxuan knew what Mrs Wen was going to say, and felt quite helpless, but she followed Mrs Wen into her yard. As soon as she entered the house, Mrs Wen sent the servants back, and said to him anxiously, "It's about giving the marriage. Did you know ahead of time?"
Pei Wenxuan calmly found a place to sit down. He knew in his heart that since he attended the spring banquet and investigated the case with Li Rong a while ago, he and Li Rong had been in touch with each other early on.
So he admitted frankly: "I know."
"You know, you don't even know how to tell me about such a big thing?"
Hearing Pei Wenxuan's voice, Mrs Wen suddenly shouted: "Do you still have my mother in your heart?!"
"I can only treat my mother," Pei Wenxuan poured tea for himself and said calmly, "Can you resist the decree, or can you reason with His Majesty?"
Wen was stunned for a while, and after a while, she was unable to sit down, and her tears rolled down: "It's your mother's fault that made you feel wronged. If your father was still here, you would never have encountered this kind of thing. It's not easy to do things like Princess Shang, which princess has a good temper?"
Pei Wenxuan listened to Wen's cry, he hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "I am willing to do this."
Mrs Wen raised her head in disbelief. Pei Wenxuan thought for a while, looked up at Mrs Wen, and said peacefully, "Mother, I asked for this girl myself."
"You asked for it?"
Wen's face was full of shock: "You're fine, why do you ask a princess to come in?"
"Isn't the princess very nice?" Pei Wenxuan laughed. "The princess is also an ordinary girl. She's a very nice person. You'll know it when you see her."
"What kind of ecstasy soup are you eating?" Wen said, and cried again, "I know you are comforting me, you like Zhenzhen since you were a child, you have the same temper as your father, how can you fall in love with other people so easily of?"
"Mother," Pei Wenxuan couldn't help laughing, "don't talk nonsense in the future."
"You are my son, my heart is the flesh," Wen shi cried so hard that he couldn't hold his breath, Pei Wenxuan hurriedly went to her back and listened to her, "Can I not know your thoughts? I I can't stop your second uncle from going to Qin's house to talk nonsense. I didn't expect that Qin Lin from the Qin family heard your second uncle's words, and even said that his sister couldn't enter the Pei family's nest, so he came to break off the marriage. I hurt you, and now you have to comfort me..."
"Mother," Pei Wenxuan couldn't bear Wen's cry, and the whole child's head was big, but he knew that his mother used to have this temper, so he could only persuade him with a good temper, "She is really good, I I really like her. I have worked so hard to marry her. Don't talk nonsense in front of her in the future. If you really think about me and want me to have a good marriage, please don't mention Qin in the future. Really, get along well with the princess, okay?"
Wen shi listened to Pei Wenxuan's reassurance, and she raised her head in doubt: "Aren't you bluffing me?"
"Can I bluff you?" Pei Wenxuan sighed, "I really like her."
"What about Qin Zhenzhen?"
Wen's face was bewildered.
Pei Wenxuan raised his hand to rest on his forehead: "I wasn't sober at that time, I was so old, do you know what I like or not like?"
"This..." Wen shi hesitated for a moment, but was actually moved, and said slowly, "That's true."
Pei Wenxuan raised his head strangely: "Do you think I don't like Qin Zhenzhen?"
"You're childish," Wen's expression was gentle, "the relationship should be like your father's. If you don't meet, you will miss, and when you meet, you will feel heartbroken. When the two are together, you feel that time passes quickly. I just made a few casual sentences, and I thought it was very interesting."
Saying that, Mrs Wen's face showed a bit of nostalgia. Pei Wenxuan knew Mrs Wen missed his father again. He was silent, Mrs Wen also knew that she shouldn't be so addicted to the past in front of others. She paused for a moment and sighed. Tone: "In those years in Luzhou, you never sent a letter to Zhenzhen because of your longing. When you meet her, you are well-behaved. How can you like her like you are in front of people
"As you put it," Pei Wenxuan laughed, "I have to find someone I like and lose, so I like it?"
"I don't know if you will hurt her," Wen also laughed, "but you must be different in front of her. In front of that person, you will be a child all your life."
Pei Wenxuan was stunned for a while, and after a while, he couldn't help but say, "Is my father like this too?"
"Yeah," Wen likes to talk about Pei Lizhi, and when Pei Wenxuan took the initiative to mention it, her eyes softened, "Don't look at him being strict in front of you, he has always been a small child. You remember that he always Buying toys for you, I bought them for myself to play with, so I said to him, where did I buy toys for you
"Yeah," Pei Wenxuan spoke with Wen, "I remember."
Pei Wenxuan accompanied Wen to talk about Pei Lizhi. Wen was in poor health. After talking with him for a while, he became a little tired. Seeing that she was tired, Pei Wenxuan served her to rest and then went out.
After going out, he stood at the door, Tong Ye followed behind him, and said with some doubts: "Master, what do you think?"
"I think," Pei Wenxuan sighed, "Fortunately, Your Highness doesn't like to cry."
Tong Ye was a little dazed: "Huh?"
Pei Wenxuan lowered his head and chuckled and walked away.
When he was talking to Wen just now, he had been thinking about Li Rong.
In his last life, he always said that Li Rong was too tough, and every time he quarreled because of political disagreements, he would think about how a girl could be so tough.
However, just now looking at Mrs Wen, he suddenly felt that Li Rong was very good.
No one can hide behind others for a lifetime. One day he has to stand up and face the storm and face this cruel world.
His mother was not a bad person, she was soft and kind, and his father protected his mother all his life, letting her be like a canary and spend most of her life happily.
But all gifts have a price, and his father probably never thought that one day he would be gone so early.
How well he protects this person, and how weak this person will be after he leaves.
Before his father died, he prepared many people to protect their mother and son, but when he was only seventeen years old, he was forcibly sent to Luzhou in the name of keeping filial piety, leaving his mother in Pei's house.
His mother was a soft-hearted person who was easy to give in. She was always afraid of disputes and always gave in. So no matter how much things his father left behind, when he came back three years later, he was completely defeated by his mother.
When he was young, he envied his parents. They were different from ordinary couples in aristocratic families. They really loved each other.
He had imagined countless times that if he had a wife, he would also live such a life, and he would also imitate his father, devoting everything to protect that person and love that person.
But when he saw his mother, he suddenly felt that he loved a woman too much and gave her everything, but didn't teach her to fly. What was the difference between breaking her wings
But it's okay-
Pei Wenxuan thought of Li Rong, and he felt a little relieved.
This woman, no matter how much you spoil her, she can soar up to 90,000 miles. All you have to worry about is if she is not careful, she may go to a place you can't see, and let you look up to it for a lifetime, and you can't touch it again.
Pei Wenxuan just realized this idea, and immediately felt a little ridiculous.
It's just that he is living together in this life, and the two of them will be separated in a few years.
But it's very strange, when he thinks about this, he feels a little happy.
He walked briskly back to his yard, and saw the maid who had asked for money standing at his door a little nervously. He lowered his face and stared at the maid. After hesitating for a while, he opened his mouth slowly: "That carriage..."
"Take your time!" the maid said immediately, "The concubine... oh no, eldest son," the maid cried and said, "The servant is here to apologize, the servant does not know Taishan, and I hope that the eldest son will not remember the villain. Return the carriage slowly, anytime!"
Pei Wenxuan was amused by this maid, and he suddenly felt what a fox fake tiger might be.
He didn't intend to entangle with these little ghosts, he waved his hand and said, "It's okay, let's go."
The maid hurriedly ran away, and Pei Wenxuan went back to the yard. He thought about the key figures in the dark net at night, and went to the Princess Mansion the next day, took the money, found someone, and everything started to build up in an orderly manner.
When he returned to the mansion in the evening, he did not arrive at the door until he saw Zhan Shi of the Princess Mansion standing at the entrance. Pei Wenxuan was stunned, and quickly got off the carriage to greet the other party: "Master Lu, why are you here?"
"The princess has a letter for you," Lu Minzhi handed a letter to Pei Wenxuan, "I'll drop by and send a letter."
"You have a heart."
Pei Wenxuan took the letter and chatted with Lu Minzhi for a while. After Lu Minzhi said goodbye and left, Pei Wenxuan took the letter and hesitated for a while before opening it. He went back to the room and put the letter on the bedside.
In the evening, after finishing all his official duties, he opened the letter on the bed and saw Li Rong's handwriting.
Li Rong said three things in a succinct manner. The first was to give him two drawings of the wedding dress, asking him to help her reference.
The second is to ask him about the progress of the darknet construction.
The third is to give him a silver note, telling him to throw it on the slave girl's face.
Pei Wenxuan was lying on the bed, looking at Li Rong's letter, he remembered the way Li Rong raised his eyebrows when he spoke, and he couldn't help laughing.
He carefully looked at the two wedding dress drawings, checked one of them, and then put the letter aside and went to sleep by himself.
He had a dream that night. He dreamed that Li Rong turned around in front of him wearing the wedding dress he chose and asked him, "Pei Wenxuan, do you think it looks good?"
He didn't know what to do, he couldn't help but want to laugh.
When he woke up from the dream with a smile, he lay quietly for a while.
Only then did he realize that this was the first time in his memory, in an uncountably long time, that he woke up from a dream with a smile.
After being a teenager, there are no more sweet dreams.
Go back to being a teenager again, and a beautiful woman will dream.
The author has something to say: I suddenly discovered that Pei Wenxuan was holding the script of the heroine's house fight...
A daughter who was robbed of her family property and bullied, has a cousin who is always arguing with her without thinking. One day, she is attracted by Gao Fushuai, and a wedding decree shocked his whole family...
oh, what a golden finger!
Oh, the rich and handsome heroine is really enviable.
[small theater]
(before marriage)
Li Rong: "What kind of daydreams do you do every day to wake up with a smile?"
Pei Wenxuan: "I dreamed that you married me."
Li Rong: "Oh, this is really not a pipe dream."
(after married)
Li Rong: "What nightmares do you do every day to wake up crying?"
Pei Wenxuan: "I dreamed that you married me."
Li Rong: "Oh, man. But there's one thing—"
Pei Wenxuan: "What?"
Li Rong: "When I see that you are not happy, I know that I must be very happy."
