Queen of flowers - Chapter 46

After he laughed, Feng Liao said very gently to Yong Ruo, “I scared you! I won’t destroy my future, because I have never regarded being the Emperor’s successor as my future.”

“Because I used to live in the palace in my childhood, I know how much hardship Uncle Huang had seen. So I don’t want to inherit that position and get tired of it. Because of this, the older I get, the more wavering and unreliable I become just like my elder brother.”

“If it weren’t for this, Uncle Huang would have adopted me long ago! I would have been a prince! How would I still be just a county king?”

Yong Ruo didn’t know what to say!

“Have you really thought about it … the glory, to hold the power of the world?” She asked softly.

“For holding the power of the world, I would need to endure the difficulties of the world. I am dull in qualification and lazy in nature. I can’t stand this hardship.”

He smiled at Yong Ruo and said very peacefully, “I like the way I am now, being a happy person. You can sway the moon and the wind. You can swim in the mountains and rivers. You can fight chickens and horses. You can pick chrysanthemums… Why not?”

Looking at his calm face and frank eyes, Yong Ruo finally believed that he really had no ambitions for that position!

She was secretly relieved.

If Feng Liao gave up the throne because he wanted to fight for her, she would feel pressured!

She didn’t want him to sacrifice too much for her! Because that would make her feel indifferent and make her mentally unbalanced … she didn’t like being owed to others!

“With these three points, your uncle Huang and your mother can agree to let you marry me?” Yong Ruo still didn’t believe it.

The more the Emperor loved Feng Liao, the more he could not tolerate Feng Liao marrying such a lowly girl, regardless of whether Feng Liao had ambitions for that position.

This time, Feng Liao did not answer her soon. He was silent for a while, then shook his head, solemnly, “To be honest … I am not completely sure!”

Yong Ruo couldn’t tell whether she was disappointed or relieved.

Feng Liao said, “Therefore, I have two plans. If I can overcome the dangers of marrying you as a wife, it is naturally the best. If I can’t do it, I will go to the next plan and never marry for life. Only stay with you until I get old.”

She looked at his eyes and finally realized that he was serious!

Feng Liao also looked at her, with a diligent and eager look, with a strong pleading meaning, “If I can’t achieve my goal of marrying you with all my strength, would you like to take a step back and only be a concubine for life?”

Yong Ruo thought, ‘am I willing? I am willing to be Feng Liao’s concubine! But for life … let’s talk about it later!’

“If the emperor and your mother set up a relationship for you, and you must marry, what would you do?”

Feng Liao chuckled, “If they want me to get married, it will not be so easy; it is not difficult to destroy a marriage.”

Yong Ruo felt that Feng Liao’s chuckling seemed to have indescribable ease and liveliness that made her feel … charmed!

She seemed to see a noble and beautiful fire phoenix, spreading his wings gracefully and calmly, breaking through the shackles of the magma that gave birth to it but trapped it, flying towards her.

There seemed to be a vigorous passion for freedom and life, rolling inside and out, surging …

Somewhat reluctant to hide the effect of his charm on her, she asked, “When did you decide to marry me?”

“I learned that you were retired by the Yang family. On the morning of the 27th of the first month.”

“Why was it that day?”

“The evening of the 26th of the first month, I finally understood how important you were to me!”

“The 26th of the first month?”

“The day you were going to marry.”

“Were you jealous?” There was a smile on her face.

“Yes!” He admitted very simply, “I was in Ruzhou that night, and I didn’t know you had been retired. The thought of you entering another man’s cave, and from then on to take another man’s surname, felt like a knife-cut. At that time, I knew what it means to feel pain in the heart, and what it is to regret! I hated myself so much that I let you go so easily!” He looked at her very seriously,” That pain, I never want to experience it again! “

Yong Ruo looked at him and smiled, “What then?”

“I drank with the famous sword. Later Mingjian told me …” he was a little embarrassed, “After I was drunk, I pulled him to cry … I wanted to lead someone to snatch you away!”

“And so?”

“So the next day, when the famous sword told me that you were retired by the Yang family, and you didn’t enter someone else’s cave, I had the good luck to escape. That day, snow fell in Ruzhou. I stood under the corridor, looking at the snow and plum blossoms in the courtyard, I suddenly figured out-plum blossoms could not coexist with spring flowers! I admire plum blossoms, how can I be greedy and insufficient, and think about spring’s charming flower. At that moment, I was determined to marry you as a wife, and not to be close to any other woman! “

“Do you have plum blossoms in your residence in Ruzhou?”

“Yes! I picked a garden with plum blossoms.”

“The second time you came to my house, I already rejected you. Why did you go to Ruzhou?”

“Although you rejected me, I hoped that you would be happy. At that time, I thought, If you can wash away your father’s grievances, you will have a better life in the Yang house. This is one of them.”

“What about the second?”

“I’m afraid I can’t bear it anymore and may destroy your marriage. So I have to go far …”

“Is there a third?”

“I wanted you to remember me! Never forget me in your life! Even if you have married another man!” Feng Liao used a pretentious tone to conceal the embarrassment in his heart.

He thought that he was very strange tonight because the words that he couldn’t say before were spoken in front of her without hindrance. .

After speaking, he had a feeling as if he got down a huge burden off his shoulder. This unrestrained feeling of freedom was something he had never experienced before.
