"What?" Yun Ting almost exploded when he heard this.
He looked at the little baby, then at Zhong Liyu, and was immediately filled with anger.
"How old are you? You're already thinking about getting married when you grow up? How do you know what he will be like when he grows up? Besides, what do you know! How can you decide your lifelong event so rashly? What about your emperor father? Doesn't he care about you? Does he know about this?" Yun Ting said angrily.
"I know. The Emperor respects Shuangbao's decision very much. He wouldn't be like you." Little Shuangbao frowned and argued. "Besides, haven't you heard the old saying? You can tell a person's future from the age of three. When I first saw Brother Ayu when I was three, I had already decided to marry him when I grew up! This shows that I wasn't rash! This is about taking the initiative! If I had really waited until I grew up to decide, Brother Ayu might have been snatched away by someone else! Haven't you seen what Brother Ayu looks like? Even among gods, he's the only one like him!"
When Zhongli Yu heard her innocent words, a smile spread across the corners of his lips.
He looked at Xiao Shuangbao tenderly, wanting to say that no one could take him away from him.
No one could take it away from you in your previous life, and the same is true in this life.
He is hers.
Belongs only to her.
At this moment, Yun Ting was speechless by her eloquent words.
After a while, he suddenly reacted.
"You decided to marry him, didn't you, just because he's good-looking?" Yun Ting said unhappily, glaring at him.
"Yes, what else?" Little Shuangbao frowned her adorable eyebrows and looked at Yun Ting in confusion. "Is there anything wrong with this? Of course, you have to look for a good-looking husband!"
"You..." Yun Ting felt that she was being even more careless!
I was just about to refute her again.
On the side, Zhongli Yu suddenly spoke.
"Master Yun, I can swear a solemn oath that I will never let Shuangbao down in this life. I will love and protect her. She is the only one I will be with until we grow old. I will never betray her." He said in a steady and serious tone.
Yun Ting was silent for a moment.
He looked at Zhongli Yu and could actually feel the sincere emotions in the eyes of this young boy.
"But I remember that you are the son of the Queen of Southern Yan. You will probably go back to inherit the throne in the future. If you were not the emperor, then this statement might be somewhat believable. But if you were the emperor, with three thousand beauties in your harem, how could you have only one of them, her?" Yun Ting frowned and asked with deep eyes.
"I am not the emperor yet. I don't know why the emperor must have three thousand beauties in the harem. But if that day really comes, I will not have a harem. There will only be one queen in the palace, and that is Shuangbao. There will be no other concubines." Zhongli Yu's face, which was as beautiful as a god, was still extremely serious.
Every word he said was a firm promise.
Yun Ting realized that what he said was what he really thought and was not perfunctory.
"You'd better do as you say, otherwise, even if I don't show up, I'm afraid the emperor of Dongqi will not forgive you." Finally, he only said this, turned around and got off the carriage, and did not shout that Zhongli Yu and Xiao Shuangbao were not allowed to ride in the same carriage again.
Xiao Shuangbao didn't take this matter too seriously.
Seeing him leave, she leaned her little head on Zhongli Yu and yawned sleepily again.
"If you are sleepy, go to sleep." Zhongli Yu let her rest her head on his legs, covered her with a blanket, and said in a gentle voice.
"Yeah!" Little Shuangbao nodded, found a comfortable position, and soon closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Zhongli Yu looked at her with his eyes lowered, and suddenly remembered an old event from their previous life.
In his previous life, he did not end up with Xiao Shuangbao because of their identities, which made them lack trust in each other.
At that time, he was a hostage of the Southern Yan Kingdom and appeared as a zither player in the palace of the Eastern Qi Kingdom. He was not very respected.
At that time, Xiao Shuangbao, also known as Su Chushuang, was deeply loved by Emperor Chengxuan, but she was not his biological daughter after all. She was actually marginalized everywhere in the royal family and her status was quite embarrassing. Especially after the death of Emperor Chengxuan and the ascension of the second prince to the throne, her position became even more precarious.
Not to mention anything else.
Even if he really returned to the Kingdom of Southern Yan to inherit the throne in the future, his mother would not accept a princess with an awkward status like her as his queen.
This is the contradiction between them.
And that old incident was also the one that caused a complete break between him and Su Chushuang. It was that the second prince, who had later ascended the throne, suddenly gave him a concubine after drinking.
The concubine was a dancer in the palace.
He was the court musician, and the two were actually quite familiar with each other and often rehearsed together.
But the relationship between him and Su Chushuang is not known to outsiders.
The concubine fell in love with him, but he was not interested. Naturally, he could not refuse such a reward from the emperor, so he could only keep the concubine in his own yard, but never touched her.
However, this act of acceptance still angered Su Chushuang.
She came to his yard angrily at night, holding a long sword, wanting to kill the concubine. She asked why she had no status at all, while a mere concubine could stay by his side legitimately?
He doesn't like killing, so naturally he wants to stop it.
In the end, although Su Chushuang dropped her sword and left, the grudge in her heart did not disappear.
Unexpectedly, two days later, the concubine died suddenly at a palace banquet.
At that time, when he saw the concubine bleeding from all seven orifices, he immediately looked at Su Chushuang.
Su Chushuang misunderstood, thinking that he had misunderstood that she had killed the concubine.
He didn't explain either.
After that, he and Su Chushuang no longer had fierce quarrels like before. Instead, they broke up naturally and never met privately again.
