Chapter 202 Chapter 087

087 Emperor's Bestowed Marriage

Anxiu was stunned by Yue'er's words.He Youbao has always had a good temper, and he would not get angry for no reason, unless the person who came back was He Shusheng.

The guard of honor clears the way, all sides are majestic...

Anxiu chewed these words, a chill came over her body.

"Let's go, I'll go and have a look..." Anxiu said, ready to talk to Nangong in the room, let him drink the porridge by himself, and come to accompany him later.

However, Nangong opened the curtain and came out, seeing Anxiu's hair draped over her shoulders, and her clothes were ordinary clothes, she raised her eyebrows and said, "Anxiu, you go back to your room and comb your hair, change your clothes before you go! No matter who it is Come, your appearance at this moment is disrespectful."

If it was He Shusheng who came back, it would be even more impossible for him to see that his clothes were disheveled.Anxiu knew what Nangong You was thinking, and nodded, if she went out like this, it would indeed damage Ning Nanhou's image.Whoever comes is an outsider.It is indeed a loss of dignity to be disheveled in front of outsiders.

When Anxiu returned to her room, Yue'er and Xia Lu helped her find a celestial blue robe with a black jade belt around her waist; tied it up with blue silk, and put on the official crown of the waiting lord.With a face like white jade and a heroic appearance, he is a first-class talent.Wearing such clothes in summer, Anxiu's chest must be wrapped with a corset, otherwise it will be extremely ugly.

Xia Lu is not worth it for her, she is such a beautiful daughter, she insists on dressing up as a man!

When An Xiu rushed to the door, she happened to see Zhu Qing pulling He Youbao.As for He Youbao's tears, there was a man kneeling next to him, with his shirt off, shirtless, and a few obvious red marks on his back.

The gate was full of people.Someone with sharp eyes saw An Xiu approaching, and hurriedly whispered: "The Lord is here..."

He Shusheng trembled slightly, then slowly raised his eyes to look at Anxiu.It has been four years since he left, and Anxiu seems to have changed a lot during the four years.She still has the same shape and face, but she walks very steadily, with majesty and heroism in her eyebrows and eyes. She is no longer the little merchant woman she used to be, but the second-rank lord of a country.

He Shusheng put on his coat and stared blankly at her walking lightly.

He was looking at An Xiu, and An Xiu was also looking at him.Counting carefully, we haven't seen each other for almost four and a half years now. He was only 15 years old at that time, and now he is 19 years old. He has completely become a young man.His stature was already a head tall, tall and mighty; his nose bridge was straight and his eyes were deep. He was an extremely handsome man, and even Nangong lacked his heroic vigor.

When he was young, he was very thin and dark. Anxiu always hoped that he would be tall and handsome when he grew up, just like He Jiangsheng.Now he is taller and more handsome than He Jiangsheng, but why does Anxiu look at him and think he is a stranger?
"Xiu..." He Shusheng's voice was a little excited, with a hint of trill.

Anxiu took a look at his guard of honor, it was indeed very beautiful.The neighbors in the neighborhood had already heard about the man waiting for the Lord, and knew that it was Master He who had returned, and He Youbao was making a fuss again, so they naturally gathered at the door to watch the excitement.An Xiu smiled at He Shusheng and said, "Lord He, my father lost his temper and made you inconvenient, don't forget to take it to heart, I am wrong!"

Then he sternly said to the servants: "Master He went to the mansion to pay a visit to the Marquis, but was stopped at the door. Which family's rule is this? You don't know how to welcome distinguished guests?"

Only then did the boys welcome the guard of honor into the door.

Anxiu walked to He Youbao's side, patted his hand, and said with a low laugh, "Father, don't do this, you're making things difficult for your daughter! Let him enter the mansion quickly, it's just an official's visit, it's not worthy of your attention." Getting so angry?"

He Youbao's old tears flowed down again, he choked up and nodded, "This bastard, he shouldn't have entered this gate..."

"Okay dad, go back to the room first, I'll call you later!" Anxiu smiled softly, and then said to Zhu Qing, "Ask someone to take the old man back to the room..."

Zhu Qing called the two boys over and helped He Youbao back.

Although He Youbao was not reconciled, he still listened to An Xiu's words and followed the boy away.He Shusheng's heart ached like a knife when he heard Anxiu's repeated refusal to keep people away from thousands of miles away.He stood behind Anxiu, looked at her and ordered his servants: "Zhu Qing, please sit in the East Chamber, Mr. He. Please first, Mr. He, I will go to see my father, and I will come later..."

He Shusheng wanted to go with her to see He Youbao, and let him vent all his resentment towards him, so that the father and son could talk.But Anxiu kept talking about "my father" and "Master He", clearly treating He Shusheng as an outsider.

But after thinking about it, if he didn't explain clearly what he did, it would be impossible for his father and Anxiu to show him good looks.Their reactions, one violent anger, one excessive indifference, were all within He Shusheng's expectation.He didn't bother, and said with a smile: "Thank you Ningnanhou..."

Hearing He Shusheng call her Marquis of Ningnan, Anxiu smiled wryly.She felt that God would not let her turn back.If Nangong came back a moment later, Anxiu would not be sure of her own heart.In the past four years, although she never said or expressed, she never expected He Shusheng to come back suddenly and explain things clearly when he came back.In the worst case, he would also come back and say sorry to her, so that her previous marriage could have a satisfactory explanation.

But when Nangong came back today, and He Shusheng came back later, An Xiucai really understood that her marriage had been made clear on the day when the divorce letter was sent back, but she had been persistent and refused to let go.After waiting, looking forward to, crying, and forgetting, he is back!

The boys helped He Youbao to Chunyu's yard, but He Youbao was still crying, which showed that he really had mixed feelings.He is different from Anxiu, He Shusheng has always been his son, even if he is not filial and has ignored his father for so many years, it still cannot change the fact that he is his own son.

"I just thought he died outside..." Anxiu had just entered the yard when he heard He Youbao's voice choked up, and said to Chun Yu, "When I was young, I had to feed him even if I was not full. Raising him, how did he know that he was such a heartless, unfaithful, unfilial thing! Since he has done such an outrageous thing, why would he come back... It would be good if he could not be seen, and he would be considered dead ..."

"Master, don't be angry. If you are so angry, Lord Hou won't let you go, making you even more sad...It's not easy for Lord Hou..." Chunyu comforted He Youbao.

An Xiu's footsteps were heavy, the maids at the door heard someone coming, they hurriedly drew up the curtain and came out, when they saw that it was An Xiu, they all saluted.

Chun Yu is going to give birth in more than a month, and her belly is round and bulging, which is a bit bigger than the average person's belly.She also wanted to salute, but Anxiu hurriedly stopped her, and said with a smile: "Ms. Chun, please don't hurt the child, please sit down!"

Chun Yu was not polite anymore, so she stood up.

He Youbao was still suffering, and kept silent.When he was sad, he especially wanted to take a few puffs of dry tobacco, but Anxiu had already lost this thing, and now he remembered it for some reason.Sighing heavily, He Youbao said: "Xiu, you don't have to take care of your father. If you hate that unfilial son in your heart, you can deal with him as you like. You shouldn't have let him in!"

Anxiu smiled: "Father, that's not what you said! Shusheng came back, the scene was huge, and there were so many people watching the show at the door, if I didn't invite him in, wouldn't it be a joke for others? Besides, the matter between me and him is very important." In the past four or five years, I have long let go of it. You are my adoptive father, and Shusheng is also my younger brother! Since I was a child, I also regarded him as my younger brother..."

It's just that it changed later, when did it change, Anxiu didn't know, maybe it was after having a skin-to-skin relationship?

"Xiu, your words are not meant to comfort dad, are they?" He Youbao saw that she said it easily, but he didn't know how uncomfortable it was in his heart. He Youbao remembered Anxiu's distress at the beginning, so he felt even more resentful towards He Shusheng. .Knowing that he divorced his wife back then, He Youbao was so angry that he became ill for half a year, and it was impossible to forgive him easily.

"No dad, I really let go and have no complaints about Shusheng! We have been like brothers and sisters since childhood, and I also hope that he will be successful and bring glory to the family! Now that he is successful, I am also happy for the He family How could you be angry?" Anxiu laughed, "Father, don't blame him. Now we beat him and scold him, let's talk to him at night and ask him why he came back this time..."

He Youbao stiffened his neck, and said, "Xiu, you have a good heart, so Dad won't talk to him. Dad just pretends he doesn't have this son..."

Chun Yu smiled at the side and persuaded: "Master, how can the juniors not do wrong things? How can the elders always hold on to the mistakes of the juniors? The Lord is magnanimous and doesn't care about it. The master will give the Lord this face. Go and see." Look. Father and son have not seen each other for several years, and now you have beaten and scolded, listen to him, maybe he has something to say to you?"

He Youbao sighed helplessly, not knowing what to say, so he could only say: "Since this is the case, I will listen to you..."

An Xiu was laughing in her heart, Chun Yu's words were worth An Xiu's ten words.The status of a pregnant woman in a man's heart is really different, which is very enviable.When she married Nangong, Anxiu also wanted to have a child as soon as possible so that she could experience the joy of being a mother in the future.

The happiness on Chun Yu's face made An Xiu yearn for it.

"Father, if you agree, I will ask someone to arrange for Shusheng to live. Let's go and sit down after dinner tonight!" Anxiu smiled, "No matter what he wants to tell us, don't be angry, Dad. He is so rare. It is the pride of our family to return his clothes and brocades. If he wants to go back to his hometown to worship his ancestors, and you take him with him, everyone in the clan will be happy..."

He Youbao hesitated for a while, still worried that Anxiu would not be able to figure it out, afraid that her magnanimity was just to comfort himself, and immediately said: "Xiu, dad is going to sit here for your face, as for other things, don't worry about it." Don’t do it. He’s sorry for you, everyone in Zhuangzi knows, if he returns to his hometown to worship his ancestors, where will you put your face? You are also a person of status now!”

Anxiu knew He Youbao's concerns. This old man has been so simple and kind all his life. He has been thinking about her all his life. Anxiu also has to think about him. Doesn't he really want his son to return to his hometown and be proud of his clansmen? ?Do you honor your ancestors?
Yes, everyone has such selfishness.But He Youbao just pushed aside these selfishness in a daze, and didn't let them come out, he didn't want any of his actions to embarrass Anxiu.No matter whether Anxiu is poor or rich, He Youbao always protects her like this.

He Youbao even loves Anxiu more than he loves He Shusheng and He Yuer, maybe he is thinking that she is a child without father and mother?In this world, there are always such selfless people, He Youbao is such a person,
"Father, I really don't care..." An Xiu said, then smiled, and said, "Father, I have something to tell you and Aunt Chunyu, let the maids go out..."

Chun Yu was stunned, not knowing what An Xiu wanted to say, she waved her hand to tell the maids to go out, close the door of the pavilion, and don't stand outside the curtain.

After all the maids had gone out, An Xiucai smiled and said, "Father, I want to get married, marry Nangong and travel out..."

When He Youbao heard that Anxiu was getting married, he was very happy, but he was very surprised when he heard who she was going to marry.Nangong Youchu is just a servant of their family, who has been raised for seven or eight years. Although he looks good, he is younger than Anxiu and has a lower status than Anxiu. He Youbao is a little bit reluctant that Anxiu has wronged him like this.

Which parent doesn't want their children to have a good home?But Nangong Youchu is not worthy of Anxiu at all!He Youbao said: "Xiu, you are getting married, Dad is happy, but Nangong...he is just a servant, so it will make people laugh!"

The reason why Anxiu dispatched his subordinates was to tell He Youbao about Nangong's identity.The reason why she didn't avoid Chun Yu was mainly because she felt that Chun Yu was a steady person, and if she could give birth to a boy in the future, An Xiu really wanted to help her upright.Chun Yu is not only a steady and caring woman, but also a reasonable and righteous woman. Why Youbao needs such a caring person.And he is getting old, unlike the boy who likes to hug left and right, he just wants a stable relationship, a woman who knows the cold and the hot.Judging from his neglect of Qiushuang, He Youbao is a single-minded person.So it's good for both of them to straighten Chunyu.He Youbao is relieved, and Chunyu is also relieved.

"Father, in fact, Nangong is not a simple servant. He is the prince of Xiwan Kingdom and the younger brother of Sun Khan!" Anxiu said, and then explained the relationship between Xiwan Kingdom and Sun Khan to He Youbao and Chunyu. It means, roughly, the prince of the neighboring country...

Both He Youbao and Chunyu were dumbfounded, they never thought that Nangong Youchu would have such a prominent position.He Youbao didn't even believe it, and worried: "Xiu, are you sure? What if he lied to you? I don't think he is. If he is really a prince, if he doesn't go back to enjoy the glory and wealth, Is it so hard to be a servant in our family?"

Anxiu had no choice but to explain to He Youbao again: "Father, what can he lie to me? I am neither greedy for his status nor his wealth. Why did he lie to me? He has what I have, and he doesn't want it." , I don’t want it either! We don’t have any evil intentions for anyone, so don’t worry about that!”

"Why has he stayed at our house for seven or eight years? According to him, his father married his stepmother. The stepmother also has a son who wants to inherit Khan's position. Naturally, she is jealous of him and framed him in every possible way. He is weak and weak. Dare to go back. Later, I’m afraid I’ll be reluctant to part with me..." Anxiu smiled shyly.

After hearing this, Chun Yu's heart was filled with waves. An Xiu actually told her about such a secret, which shows that she is very important in her heart.Chun Yu doesn't care about fame and wealth, but she needs trust and acceptance.Anxiu gave her these two things, which filled Chun Yu's heart with a sense of security and ease!
"Master Hou, the butler of Nangong is dignified, and he is the right match for the Lord Waiter. A golden man and a jade girl are a perfect match!" Chun Yu sincerely blessed after hearing Nangong Youchu's identity, and then asked He Youbao, "Master, what do you think?" ? Nangong butlers are very nice."

"Nangong is a nice person, he doesn't talk much, and he has a lot of skills." He Youbao smiled, "However, his identity cannot be disclosed here, and others will still gossip. But you two are in love, and Dad is also satisfied. Just choose a date to get married!"

Anxiu got He Youbao's approval, and she was relieved.Nangong is right, there will be plenty of gossips from others, but only she knows whether she is happy or not.That being the case, let others talk about it, Anxiu doesn't want to live in the words of others for the rest of her life.

It is impossible for one person to have all the luck, so let's give them some jokes!

*******
Anxiu asked Zhu Qing to tell He Shusheng to eat and rest first, and the Lord and the old man would come to see him in the evening.

He Shusheng came to the door as a guest, so naturally the guest did what the host wanted, and arranged for dinner and accommodation.However, the confidant guard who followed He Shusheng was not happy, and complained: "My lord, this Marquis of Ningnan is too big. My lord, you are a second-rank minister, with the same rank as her! And you are the emperor's most trusted minister, more powerful than her." This idle Marquis is much stronger, why is she still showing off?"

The Huo family kept He Shusheng's past life a secret, and no one knew about it, not even the cronies who had been with He Shusheng for four or five years.Just now at the gate, I saw an old man coming out of Hou's mansion, beating a second-rank official like that, everyone with He Shusheng was stunned.But He Shusheng ordered no one to touch him, and his followers guessed that this old man might have some relationship with He Shangshu, but they didn't know what the relationship was.

They all thought that He Shangshu's return to his hometown to worship his ancestors and his visit to Ningnanhou's mansion was just to express the court's concern for Ningnanhou.

This guard is called Dong Yang, and he has always been He Shusheng's confidant.In the past, Dong Yang was just a gangster on the streets of Kyoto. He committed all kinds of crimes, fighting and stealing, and was sometimes caught and beaten to death by officials.He Shusheng could see that he was good at martial arts, so he took him to his side to train him.In less than four years, he is now a fourth-rank bodyguard with a knife. He looks good, and he is no longer the little gangster he used to be.

Now, the Huo family's long room is completely broken, and He Shusheng doesn't need to worry about it. Looking at the brand-new furniture in the guest room, although he has never seen it before, he feels very cordial.This is his home, with his father and his wife!He Shusheng sighed, and then said to Dong Yang: "Ningnan Hou...is my former wife. The old lady just now is my biological father!"

Dong Yang was stunned, he had been with He Shusheng for four years, He Shusheng had the grace of regeneration to him, so no matter what kind of person he was, Dong Yang had no right to say anything.But he was really surprised, because He Shangshu is the son-in-law of the Huo family, although his wife died of illness two years ago.Unexpectedly, he has also done things such as abandoning the chaff for the sake of glory.Dong Yang quickly lowered his head, not looking at He Shusheng, for fear that his emotions would be leaked and embarrass his master.

Since He Shusheng was willing to speak out, he naturally didn't care.He has a lot of pain in his heart, and he can only talk about it in detail with An Xiu and He Youbao.Before dinner, he said: "Dong Yang, go out and see if our people are well arranged..."

He was just looking for an excuse to dismiss Dong Yang.

Dong Yang left in a hurry, he was a rough man and didn't know what to say.

After Dong Yang left, He Shusheng carefully opened the cloth bag from his luggage. Inside was a piece of yellow cloth with the emperor's seal on it. , thinking in his heart: "Xiu, you will know that I have suffered for you these years... Don't blame me, no matter how dangerous it was at the beginning, I shouldn't make people embarrassed and sad... But, there is no need to separate from now on, the emperor bestowed Marriage, no one can separate you and me..."

****
After talking to He Youbao and Chunyu, Anxiu returned to Nangong's courtyard. After all, he was not in good health and needed someone to take care of him.Anxiu's cold and warm words are ten words more heartwarming than the maids', Anxiu still understands this.

Nangong lay on the bed and dozed off, when he heard footsteps, he immediately opened his eyes alertly to look at the person coming, seeing that it was An Xiu, he was about to get up.Anxiu hurriedly said: "Lie down, no matter how strong your body is, you should rest well. Rest more and recover faster..."

Nangong nodded, didn't violate Anxiu's intention, just sat up and talked with Anxiu.Nangong asked, "Did you see him just now?"

Anxiu glanced at him and said with a smile, "Did all the maids tell you?"

"I found out by myself!" Nangong said with a smile, "What did they say that Mr. He is back? I guess, I'm afraid he's back. How is he now?"

"It's just a hasty meeting at the door, and we haven't talked in detail yet. I have an appointment with my father, and I will meet Shusheng after dinner..." Anxiu laughed, "My father is very unhappy about this, and Shusheng broke his heart. , I'm afraid it will never get better. Although the old man is kind, he is a sincere person..."

"Uncle Youbao is the best person I've ever met!" Nangong exclaimed.

Anxiu also laughed: "My father is also the best person I have ever met. I remembered a sentence I heard once: How can the same grains raise different people? My father is a gift from God to me. That's why I met him. Nangong, I used to be an outcast."

"I know this. When I was in Hejiazhuang, those long-term workers liked to talk about you when they had nothing to do at night..." After Nangong finished speaking, he felt a slip of the tongue and shut up immediately.But Anxiu knew about this matter, so he didn't say much. As the two of them talked, time passed quickly, and it was dusk after a while. Eat here today."

Yue'er smiled and said: "Master, Nangong Butler is not in good health and cannot eat greasy food. There is only rice porridge and cold tofu at night. Would you like to stay to eat?"

Anxiu nodded affirmatively.
