Chapter 847: 18 Days
If a woman paints a man's portrait secretly, there will only be one result, and the room is filled with Xu Qing's poems, and now she fills in the portrait, it is self-evident what Li Mingyue is thinking.
Li Mingyue was the shyest of the four when she was in the Marquis of Anding's Mansion, and she is still the shyest now.
Xiao Ruxue could let the child show her heart without any scruples, and Long Bing'er could only push it halfway to make it happen, but Li Mingyue kept this heart deep all the time, and just kept it silently in her heart, never asking for anything extravagantly.
Xu Qing walked up to Li Mingyue and said, "That portrait..."
Li Mingyue's voice was so small that she could only murmur: "Mingyue...want...want to remember your current appearance."
Although it was just one sentence, Xu Qing1 could hear Li Mingyue's meaning.
Use drawing to remember the current appearance, otherwise the memory will be blurred in the future.
In other words, Li Mingyue is actually painting this painting with the idea of farewell.
Xu Qing looked at Li Mingyue and said, "Mingyue, do you really want to marry Loulan?"
Li Mingyue nodded and didn't speak.
Xu Qing frowned and asked, "You obviously don't like that King Loulan, why?"
Li Mingyue said softly: "Mingyue doesn't want to cause trouble for my brother. Mingyue has been weak since she was a child, and she depends entirely on her care. If she resists the emperor's order, her brother will definitely be implicated, and her hard work over the years will also be ruined. Mingyue can't do that." Selfish. Elder brother can sacrifice so much for Mingyue, why can't Mingyue sacrifice once for the overall situation of elder brother?"
Li Mingyue's words made Xu Qing unable to find a reason to refute, she was always like this, she buried everything in her heart, and she was so sensible that it made people feel distressed.
Although he has been weak since childhood due to Innate's disease, his heart is extremely strong.
She actually knows what Li Xun wants to do. If she is only fighting against the imperial power for her own happiness, Li Xun will definitely expose all her cards for her. If she fails, the capital accumulated by their siblings and Li Xun will be destroyed.
So she would rather sacrifice the happiness of owning, just to let Li Xun continue to endure and wait for the right time.
This kind of weak and rational strength is even more distressing, and it will also greatly arouse the protective desire of normal men, and Xu Qing is no exception.
The key is that the people in his family are not ordinary people, one is tougher than the other, and it is really not easy to meet a weak and weak person who needs to be protected.
He looked at Li Mingyue and said, "Come back with me, go to Chu State, my lady and Xue'er miss you very much."
Li Mingyue shook her head lightly and said: "The marriage contract between Mingyue and King Loulan has been finalized. At this time, the Ministry of Rites has already started preparations. The emperor will not change people. In this life, I can meet Sister Su, Mr. Xu, and Meeting Xueer and Binger, Mingyue is already content."
Xu Qing said: "I won't let you marry to Loulan."
Li Mingyue looked up into Xu Qing's eyes and said: "Mingyue is not worthy of Mr. Xu's actions. Mr. Xu, don't be impulsive. There is Sister Su at home, so don't make her worry. Mingyue may have nothing to do with Mr. Xu in this life. If there is another life ..."
Having said that, Li Mingyue couldn't help lowering her head again; "If there is an afterlife...Mingyue is willing to marry Xu Qing as his wife and never be separated..."
The words were almost inaudible by the end.
But Xu Qing still heard every word clearly, he stepped forward and took Li Mingyue into his arms, Li Mingyue didn't struggle but quietly leaned against Xu Qing's chest, closing her eyes squinting.
Xu Qing hugged Li Mingyue's slender waist, looked down at Li Mingyue's tightly closed eyes, and said, "I only want this life, not the afterlife."
Li Mingyue leaned into Xu Qing's arms and said softly, "There are still eighteen days left in the bright moon."
Hearing Li Mingyue's abrupt words, Xu Qing asked in confusion, "What?"
Li Mingyue leaned against Xu Qing's arms, her face flushed, but she mustered all her courage and said, "Eighteen days later is the wedding date set by the emperor for Mingyue. Mingyue wants to be Xu Qing's wife for eighteen days, is that okay?" ?”
Although this kind of words shouldn't come out of her mouth, Li Mingyue was worried that if she didn't say it now, she wouldn't have a chance to say it again, but after she said some words, she felt unprecedentedly relaxed.
Xu Qing knew that Li Mingyue would not be able to persuade Li Mingyue to go to Chu State with him, so he couldn't bear to insist, but said softly, "Okay, eighteen days."
Li Mingyue's request is always so cautious, her last luxury is to be Xu Qing's wife for eighteen days.
But Xu Qing didn't intend to be satisfied with it, how could he just watch Li Mingyue marry into Loulan?
If he did this, the wife probably wouldn't let him in after returning home.
The person he hugged was his, and he still wants to go to Loulan?
There is no other way than going home with him!
Li Mingyue doesn't intend to drag others down, but that doesn't mean that others will really be indifferent.
Xu Qing didn't believe that Li Xun would really watch Li Mingyue marry into Loulan, Xu Qing believed that he must be preparing something in the dark.
...
And since making this promise, Li Mingyue has seriously lived every breath of time.
Li Mingyue no longer needs to hide in the room to secretly draw Xu Qing's portrait, but can ask him to pose in various poses.
In the room, Li Mingyue would also draw some scenery, while Xu Qing would compose poems on it to add color to it.
During the day, the two lived like a real couple, husband and wife singing along with each other.
Li Mingyue was immersed in this dream, but Xu Qing couldn't bear to break her dream.
Because Li Mingyue spent 18 years of sadness in exchange for these 18 days of beauty, so beautiful that every minute and every second is so precious to her.
The lunch meal was also made by Li Mingyue herself. Her cooking skills are very good, just like Su Qian's.
Li Mingyue's change surprised the servants in the mansion.
There are no more than ten servants in this mansion. Although the princess they know has always looked neither sad nor happy, she reveals a loving temperament everywhere.
Today's princess seems to be a different person, there seems to be a faint smile on the corner of the princess's mouth all the time.
The princess always cooks the meals that the princess eats every day, and they are all used to it.
In the past, the princesses only made two small dishes for each meal, so they didn't need to send a lot of dishes to the kitchen in the inner house, but now they have increased a lot, as if their princesses became able to eat all of a sudden.
I used to eat half a bowl of rice for a meal, but now I eat two and a half bowls of rice with six dishes. Anyone who sees it thinks it is abnormal.
