82 Heart and Liver
◎His wild boar can't eat fine bran◎
"How does the Queen think I should solve this problem?"
Fu Hua asked coldly. He knew that Rong Qianyu came here because of Fu Tao's matter, so he tried to avoid seeing her, but he couldn't avoid her.
In the end, he had to summon her to meet him reluctantly.
The same is true for Rong Qianyu. If it weren't for Fu Tao, she would not have come here so late at night and looked at Fu Hua's face, which was even uglier than his even if he died.
Actually, Fu Hua wasn't ugly; he had a rather spirited appearance. When we first met, he seemed like a bright, carefree young man. It was a pity that my heart was set on the bright moon, but it only shone through the ditch. Not only was we not destined to be together, but we were also like water and fire, incompatible.
The two of them often disagreed when they met. Fu Hua would not tolerate anything that threatened his authority. "Tell the envoy the truth. The princess and the son of the Shangshu Ling family are childhood sweethearts. They are in love with each other and are married."
These words undoubtedly slapped him in the face in public, telling the people of the Great Zhou and the rulers and ministers of the Xia Kingdom that he was a monarch who did not keep his word. If the people of the Xia Kingdom took advantage of the situation and made a big fuss about it, perhaps the plan to unite and fight against Qian Bei would also be ruined.
Although General Lu has returned, he is only a minor official with an unprofitable job. The large army that stayed in Qianbei to quell the rebellion has not returned to the court. There is no one in the court. If there is any mistake at this time, they will be isolated and helpless.
This is secondary. The most important thing is that he will be worried again.
Rong Qianyu's words were simply ridiculous. He was extremely disdainful and sneered at her, "A granted marriage? You said so, then granted it. But then the Xia Kingdom said they wanted a marriage alliance, so are they going back on their word?"
He said these words just to find a way to save himself. He only cared about his own glory and wealth. It was impossible for him to give up such a good opportunity that saved time and effort for one person.
This is exactly why the two of them don't get along. Fu Hua is a complete egoist. Everyone can be used by him, and everyone can be discarded like a worn-out shoe.
Rong Qianyu wanted to persuade Fu Hua in this dilemma, revealing his hypocritical true heart to the public again and again, even if the possibility of success was slim, she had to give it a try.
"The marriage is just one of their schemes, Your Majesty. Can't you see that Tao'er is your biological sister? Why must you make such a fuss? Besides, Tao'er and Young Master Huang are indeed in love. Your Majesty, wouldn't it be better for you to help your biological sister?"
His eyes trembled slightly, obviously he had heard it, but he pretended to be ignorant. "I cannot say anything that would go back on my word."
He chose to avoid Rong Qianyu's questions and instead criticized her for being aggressive, which made her speechless for several times.
Rong Qianyu thought to herself that she couldn't be anxious if she could. She was doing this for Tao'er and absolutely couldn't be angry with him.
"If Your Majesty can't bring himself to speak, I'm willing to speak to the envoys." Since I had to play dumb, I'd just go along with him and say, "A marriage alliance is certainly the easiest way. Diplomacy is complicated and has its drawbacks, but Tao'er's lifelong affairs are ultimately more important. She doesn't have the temperament to go through with a marriage alliance."
She was not a good speaker, and she had done her best to say these words. She hoped that Fu Tao's brother would not be like her father, unable to distinguish right from wrong and cutting off his own retreat.
She was forced to marry because her mother had passed away and she was left with no one to rely on. Fu Tao was the eldest daughter who was loved and pampered by everyone, and she could never be the same as she was at that time.
"She can't, can you? Are you a softie who can marry a foreign prince?" He sneered and teased her, "I don't think so."
The other person's eyes were full of mockery, as if Rong Qianyu was asking for trouble.
The night was chilly, the north wind howling against the window sills, the candlelight inside the room blown askew by the incoming wind. Rong Qianyu sighed again, hoping that things could be resolved smoothly tonight, and she wouldn't have to feign illness every day to avoid news of Fu Tao.
Isn't she fighting for her past self now?
She gathered her emotions and forced a very forced smile from her delicate face. "I came here tonight to discuss serious matters with Your Majesty, not to argue. Your Majesty, there is no need to make indirect accusations."
"oh?"
Fu Hua walked over and pinched her chin. She instinctively wanted to struggle, but her body's reaction made her alert.
Fu Hua's expression changed in an instant, from indifference to deep disdain and ridicule. Such a clear change caught Rong Qianyu off guard. A sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and the hostility in her eyes was like a knife.
"I asked you to seduce Xue Ji but you refused. Now that the marriage is coming, what's the harm in making some sacrifices?" A trace of disgust appeared on his face, as ugly as if he had seen something dirty.
Rong Qianyu knew she was useless, so she knelt down and prepared to leave. "Your Majesty, drink your soup and rest early. I will take my leave."
Fu Hua grabbed her and held her tightly in his arms. "Sometimes I just can't understand you. In fact, if you were a little more submissive, I could still accept you, but you just don't know how to appreciate it."
“…”
He held her wrist tightly and asked her, "Don't you like someone like Xue Ji? Even if he doesn't have a bottom, he should still be a good person. Even if I don't like you, there will definitely be someone who will make you willingly."
It was he who ordered her to seduce Xue Ji, and now he was mocking her for doing the same thing.
Rong Qianyu struggled to break free from him and then took a few steps back. "We are talking about Tao'er's affairs, what do you say others should do?"
"Nothing, but the thought of you being horny, the sight of a queen enjoying herself at the feet of a eunuch must be quite beautiful."
He approached step by step, with a cold look in his eyes that Rong Qianyu had never seen before. These words undoubtedly hurt her sensitive nerves again.
She and Xue Ji have been in love with each other for so long, and this must be unbearable in the eyes of everyone. She is powerless to argue because this is the fact.
Fu Hua became more and more excited as he spoke. Rong Qianyu was a little frightened by his sudden frenzy. "Your skin is so white, you should be very soft in bed. I don't care about you. As for him, they say eunuchs are vicious and cruel. I think he has many tricks. I wonder if you will grab the sheets and scream with pleasure."
"Despicable!" Rong Qianyu cursed.
But these two words did not bother Fu Hua at all. Instead, they perked him up. He gently stroked her face, his eyes cold and indifferent. "Queen, do you think he would be more interested in you like this?"
All the buildings in front of the entrance collapsed. Although I was not in a hurry, I was forced into a panic and fled the scene in a hurry without any result.
She was scolded badly, and those cruel words and reality made her feel extremely desperate, as if she was pushed into an abyss.
Her heart was filled with pain and helplessness, as if a sharp knife had pierced her heart, suffocating her and making her unable to breathe. She struggled silently but no one came to her rescue.
She didn't expect that she would be humiliated so easily. Tears flowed uncontrollably. She knew she should hold back, but she couldn't control her emotions.
Rong Pan saw her stumbling out of the door and hurried forward to support her and ask what happened, "Are you okay, Madam? What happened?"
She kept repeating one sentence, it's okay... it's okay...
She dismissed the servants, and no one was there to check the door from here to Xue Ji's residence in the palace. She knocked on the door wearily, her tears already dried by the north wind.
"Qian'er!" Xue Ji pushed open the door and saw this pitiful little girl standing outside. "What's wrong? Why are you crying?"
Something suddenly fell from her eyes, running wetly across her cold cheek, leaving a tear mark on her skin.
The person who had already cried so hard finally couldn't hold back any more when Xue Ji pushed open the door.
Before Xue Ji closed the door and asked about the details, she had already burst into tears. She sat on the ground and refused to let anyone help her. Her tears fell one by one and all landed on the hard stone floor.
She covered her face with her hands, crying silently until she was hoarse. In front of Xue Ji, she discarded her former disguise as the queen and revealed her true vulnerability. Because she couldn't breathe well with her hands covering her face, she slowly loosened her hands that had just been holding onto her clothes.
Trembling, heart-wrenching, endless, no matter how much you try to persuade him, he won't stop.
Xue Ji squatted down and wanted to wipe her tears, but she deliberately avoided him, "Oh my dear, don't cry, don't cry, what's wrong?"
Her voice was choked with sobs and she couldn't utter a complete sentence. "Don't...don't touch me first..." She continued to sit on the ground and cry for a while.
Xue Ji always wanted to wipe her tears, but she wouldn't let him touch her.
"Okay, okay, I won't touch you. I'll go get you a cup of tea. Get up first. What are you doing here?"
He turned around to pour tea for her, but because the ground was too cold, he stood up reluctantly with a look of grievance.
Xue Ji handed her the tea. She sobbed and drank a few sips. After she calmed down, she told the whole story, "I went to find Fu Hua... to tell him about Tao'er. I thought he would take back his decision, and then he humiliated me..."
After a few words, she started crying again. In fact, Xue Ji was happy in her heart. She did not treat him as an outsider and was willing to cry like this in front of him. She must have trusted him very much.
"He said I...he forced me...forced me to become a whore in a brothel!"
"He said I should, should be submissive to a eunuch," she said, not knowing how to paraphrase these words, "and that seeing me like this would only make him more interested..."
"Did he say that?" Xue Ji asked in disbelief.
"Yeah." Rong Qianyu nodded.
He carefully wrapped his arms around the woman's waist and pulled her into his arms, his breath warm and gentle. "That wild boar of his can't handle fine bran. Are you and him having a bad relationship?"
He always appeared by her side when she needed him most, giving her a warm hug and letting her feel his pampering and care. That kind of concentration and pampering made her feel extremely happy. He would secretly glance at her when she was not paying attention, and then reveal a gentle smile, making her feel warm in her heart.
We have a tacit understanding, no need to say more.
He carried Rong Qianyu to the bed, patted her shoulders, and wiped away her tears. "Go to sleep, don't cry. If you have to cry, don't cry behind my back, okay? Don't let me think of you being sad behind my back. It makes my heart ache."
She huddled in her arms and nodded, "Okay."
He did not forget to place a gentle kiss on her forehead, "Go to sleep, my queen is the best in the world."
His words were full of tenderness and doting. Rong Qianyu was his most precious baby. Whenever she encountered setbacks, he was always the first to stand up, patiently comforting her and giving her strength and support.
