I owe the female honor system a billion

Chapter 124 5. Rattle Drum

"Report to His Majesty."

A palace official opened the door and walked into Xia Qinglan's main hall with his head down, making Xia Qinglan who was reading the memorial raise her head.

"what's up?"

"Then Su Qingchen's mother just passed away."

Xia Qinglan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered the boy squatting beside his mother with a bewildered look on his face.

She put down the memorial gently, was silent for a while, and said to the palace man,
"He's a man, so it's not easy to arrange a funeral. You go with the silver and bury him properly. If he asks, you just say it was arranged by His Majesty."

The palace man bowed his head and said yes, and went to the warehouse to get the silver taels.

Xia Qinglan was left alone in the room again. She lightly leaned her body on the soft cushion behind her and hesitated for a while, then gently put down the memorial and stood up.

"Come on."

"His Majesty."

Xia Qinglan called softly, and at the same time a dozen or so palace attendants entered the hall and bowed their heads to wait for orders.Xia Qinglan walked to the door in ordinary clothes, then casually pointed to a palace man and said,

"You go out with me."

"Yes."

It was night, and the small courtyard was deserted.

The mourning hall was set at the entrance of the small courtyard, and the man could only see his parents for the last time, and then he could only stay in the back hall and was not allowed to go out to show his face.

The sound of the gong slowly ringing at the door has stopped.

According to ancient rituals, the body will be taken away after three days and buried after seven days.

During these three days, the gong sounded at sunrise and rested at sunset.

And the palace people outside the door also put the food into the courtyard early for the young man to take.

In the small pond in the courtyard, the fish also slowly calmed down, as if they were all under the water surface, quietly staring at the boy sitting by the pond crying silently, as if to comfort him not to let He continues to grieve the same.

That young man was so good-looking that even the birds on the branches stood densely in a group without doing anything else, just watching the young man cry silently.

And then look back at the boy?
The boy was dressed in white, just sitting on the edge of the pavilion blankly, his pupils seemed to have lost focus.

That's right, a man's family has lost his only support in this world, lost his only relative, who wouldn't feel uncomfortable and hopeless?
But in fact, what filled that young man's heart was more confusion about the future.
Where should I go?

What to do?
No one seemed to have spoken to him.

Men like this have always obeyed their parents' orders.

Now he is alone and doesn't know what to do.Even the food brought by the servant next to him felt tasteless.

He just stared blankly at the pond, but he didn't know what he thought of, and then slowly shed tears, little by little, along his perfect face, dripping on the edge of the pond.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

On the wall next to it, there was a sudden rush of drumming.

The lively drum sound of dong dong dong seemed to be made by some kind of rattle drum. It was very lively and interesting, and seemed to be attracting someone's attention.

The moon has risen, and the moon is getting darker.

In such a quiet time, the sudden sound of the rattle attracted the eyes of the bird, the fish, or the boy who was weeping silently in the pavilion.

So, they all looked at the wall that was two people tall.

That is a woman.

There is a beautiful gilt crown on her black hair, and under the bright moonlight, there is a confident and beautiful smile on her fair and beautiful face.

She clasped her hands on the extremely high wall, but suddenly raised a small rattle with her raised right hand and tapped it lightly.

"His Majesty."

The reddish eye sockets of the young man raised his head, and after a long time, as if he had come to his senses, he opened his mouth and said in a daze.

"good evening!"

The woman bared her teeth and laughed.

Seeing that she had finally attracted the boy's attention, she finally stopped beating the rattle in her hand, and then put both hands on the high wall to stabilize her body.

And the young man finally realized that the reddish eye sockets of the whole person were instantly filled with panic, and tears flowed out unconsciously. He put his hands in front of his face, trying to block her sight and prevent her from seeing him. own appearance.

Men who have never been married are not allowed to look at women.

Your Majesty is the master of the world, so you don't have to follow the rules.But for such a man, it is a matter of reputation, how can he be careless?

The young man seemed to think again that his mother had passed away, that he was already alone, yet he was still treated so lightly by His Majesty, and tears flowed silently on his face covered by his hands.

"Your Majesty, why is this?" The young man's voice trembled, "If my mother is gone, if she doesn't want to fulfill her promise, that's fine. Why bother to be a courtier?"

The boy's handsome face was covered by his hands, and his eyes could not be seen clearly.

But under the bright moonlight, a little bit of crystal teardrops reflected light slightly, shedding some very beautiful brilliance.

Such a picture of a beautiful man crying made Xia Qinglan slightly stunned.

But she suddenly laughed, the laughter was a little louder, and it sounded even more mocking to the young man, his whole thin body lowered a bit, making one wonder if he would not even be able to stand firmly if he was exhausted physically and mentally up.
"I will marry you."

The emperor's smile gradually faded, and finally turned into a crooked, pretty, faint smile.

She put her hands on the high wall, and then put her chin on them, just like that, maintaining a good-looking appearance, quietly looking at the tearful boy.

The young man was slightly stunned, and raised his head in surprise, just in time to meet Xia Qinglan's bright and wild eyes, and his face turned a little blushing for a moment.

How can you say so clearly about marriage?

But the young man wanted to raise his head again, to see that woman, that peerless arrogance with power over the world, to see her demeanor, to see her eyes at this time.

He didn't dare to raise his head, but he just pulled his eyes out of the water, and looked at the woman with some doubts and unease.

Just at that time, the breeze picked up gradually, blowing a little hair on the woman's forehead.

The hair fluttered, blowing away the only obstacle between the two of them.

So, the eyes are facing each other.

She saw the sky and water in his eyes, saw his restlessness, and saw his stunning beauty.

He saw the blazing fire in her eyes, saw her confidence, and saw her determination.

But the young man was still shy after all, but after a moment, he hastily lowered his head again.

After all, even if it is the future wife, if she is not yet married, it will be Yu Ju who meets now.

But for some reason, at this moment, when he lost his mother, he hoped that this woman could stay here for a while.Just for a while, just for a while.
"Come here." Xia Qinglan waved to the boy.

The young man opened his mouth, but still moved slowly, and slowly walked out from the pavilion where he was hiding.

And the hands protecting her face were finally put down, so that Xia Qinglan could finally look at her future wife's beautiful face with some unscrupulousness.

So lovely!
His soft and stunning appearance, just one step, one movement, seems to have thousands of styles, just raising his eyebrows a little uneasy, just slightly pursing his lips, people can't help but stop their eyes.

Everything is silent, the moonlight stays, everything in the world, at this moment, all eyes are on this stunning person.

Xia Qinglan slowly changed from surprise to a smile, and she quietly lay on the wall and watched him walk over to the bottom of the wall.

"I just came from Xun Li's house just now. I was afraid that you would be bored and sad, so I came to see you." Xia Qinglan said with a smile.

Feeling the woman's concern, a seductive blush slowly appeared on the boy's pale face.

Such expressive words are too obvious, which makes this young man who has never seen the world feel a little overwhelmed.

"Thank you, Your Majesty"

He could only respond dryly.

"I got this rattle from Xun Li. Ouch."

The boy was still looking at Xia Qinglan, but found that she swayed suddenly, and her whole body became a little unsteady.

Xia Qinglan shook her body for a while, then looked at the palace servant under her feet, "What's wrong, stand still."

It turned out that the courtyard wall was too high, and Xia Qinglan climbed up by stepping on the shoulder of a palace official.

Xia Qinglan just bought this palace lady some food and bought her, and at night, she even climbed the courtyard wall of a man who hadn't left the pavilion with the emperor.

The palace man's face was pale, and he swallowed all the sweets in his mouth, "Your Majesty! I heard Lord Xun's voice! I'm afraid he found out that His Majesty is climbing the courtyard wall, and he is rushing over now!"

Xia Qinglan was also taken aback, "Isn't it, this can also be discovered?!"

Before she finished speaking, she raised her head and saw at the entrance of the alley in the distance, a woman in heavy black ministerial attire was leading a large group of women in the womb to this side with a murderous look.

When Xun Li saw her embarrassing emperor lying on the courtyard wall with an embarrassing face, the murderous aura in her body had already condensed into substance.

"Xia! Qing! Lan!"

What is impolite? !Xun Li was almost pissed off by this guy.

To be an emperor, it's fine to marry a commoner's son, but it's embarrassing to climb other people's courtyard walls at night?

If it gets out, do you want to lose your face? !
"Get out of here!" Gritting his teeth, Xun Li sprinted [-] meters towards the palace man with his court clothes in hand, and kicked down the palace man under Xia Qinglan with one kick.

And Xia Qinglan was also stubborn, without anyone supporting her below, she was completely hanging on the courtyard wall.

While screaming, he was still climbing up the courtyard wall.

"Xun Li! You are so courageous! If I fall to my death! You are the number one sinner in my Wu Dynasty!"

Xia Qinglan yelled and crawled towards the courtyard wall, causing the boy on the other side to stretch out his hand worriedly, trying to catch the woman who was climbing this way.

But how can Xun Li eat this set.

When this guy was fighting with a gun, he could kill seven in and seven out of the enemy's formation and survive. How could he fall to death by climbing a wall?
This nerve clearly just wanted to climb over the wall and enter the boy's yard! !
Come down to my wife!

Xun Li didn't care about Sanqi 21 anymore, and directly grabbed the trouser legs of the embarrassing emperor with both hands, trying to pull her down.

"Ouch! Let go! Xun Li!"

Feeling the pulling force behind her, Xia Qinglan gritted her teeth and grabbed the bricks on the edge of the courtyard wall.

"I don't! If His Majesty doesn't come down today, I will never let go!"

Xun Li also fought hard, hugging Xia Qinglan's thigh with both hands, and refused to let her enter the boy's courtyard.

Xia Qinglan grasped the wall of the courtyard very easily, and while yelling, she blinked at the boy with a satisfied expression, and slowly took down the rattle in her hand and handed it to the boy.

Seeing the young man catching the rattle she handed over with a surprised face, she smiled at the young man, then suddenly changed her expression, and shouted loudly,

"Oh! I can't do it!"

Then the whole person was pulled away behind the wall.

Xia Qinglan pretended to be pulled down by Xun Li again, but her legs landed firmly on the ground with a very dissatisfied face, "I already said I'm going to marry, so what if I meet you?"

Xun Lila didn't know how much strength she had exerted, her whole body was limp and leaning against the wall panting, she suddenly laughed mockingly, "If I didn't pull you, would you have to bridal chamber first tonight? !"

Xia Qinglan went over to help her, and also helped her pat the dust off her body.

"What you said makes sense! That's what I thought just now!"

"You have a good idea!" Xun Li trembled with anger.

Xia Qinglan patted the back of her head, and walked towards her mansion while pulling her, "Then compensate me with fine wine today! If you spoil my good deeds, I won't obey you unless you take out the bottom of the box!"

Behind them, many palace people lowered their heads and followed behind the two of them, walking slowly forward.

However, when the clouds slowly dissipated and the breeze blew again, there was a clear, slow, rattle-beating sound from the yard behind him.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

Xia Qinglan turned her head for a moment, and looked in the direction of the courtyard.

Then the smile grew stronger.

She put her arms around Xun Li who was panting beside her, and laughed,

"Go, have a few drinks with me tonight!"
