"Did you really get a slap on the wrist?" Xue Yao was shaking all over.
Lu Qian grunted, "Playing to the outsiders."
"Your big brother actually really gave up beating you? He must be mad at us!" Xue Yao looked at Lu Qian painfully, "You promised that if they objected, our agreement would be canceled."
Lu Qian retorted, "It was Master who made Second Brother fight."
Xue Yao froze, "You purposely let the Emperor beat you to try to soften your big brother's heart?"
Lu Qian looked at his little companion and grunted, "Hit the minister, silly Yao Yao."
"Why?" Xue Yao could see the confidence on this little asshole's face, and guessed that he must have come up with a good idea.
"Let the Neutral Party come to you." Lu Qian told Xue Yao in a low voice: "Most of the dynasty is the former crown prince camp, the neutral camp needs a little doorway, to find a new backer, in order to compete with the big brother's 'own people', the master pretends to be at odds with the big brother, to open up this mouth, and so they come to the drill, they will speak for the master to say the words. "
Xue Yao's pupils plummeted, and it took him a long time to find his voice: "You want to fight your big brother?"
"Master wants to marry you." Lu Qian corrected him.
"But if you do this, it will break your big brother's heart." Xue Yao panicked and grabbed Lu Qian's arm: "Your big brother won't let you marry me, it's for the sake of your reputation, you can't do this to him, he has never had any selfishness, he is dedicated to assisting you, do you want to marry a man because of something like this, so that he will have a cold heart towards you?"
"Master only needs the cabinet to draft a bill and submit it, so that the eldest son can take male concubines, the second son can take male wives, and women can set up their own households and marry female husbands." Lu Qian patiently explained, "There will be courtiers who will take the initiative to do it for master."
Xue Yao was stunned. Wouldn't it be a mess to change the marriage law like this?
But then again, these days, the people which a few dare to joke about their life? Even with the protection of the King's law, but also by all the family obstruction, and ultimately can really marry the same sex, naturally, are sincere love couple.
Having the protection of the King's law does reduce some of the tragedies of co-wives and co-husbands.
However, Lu Qian went so far as to intentionally create the illusion of brotherly dissension, luring courtiers to take the initiative to take sides as a means of suppressing the interference of the original Crown Prince's camp.
Is this still his husky Dragon Pride?
But when you think about it, it's all taken for granted.
If Lu Qian didn't have such tactics, how could he have turned against the feudal lords and surrounded Lao San in the first place?
This Dragon Ao Tian seems to be simple and harmless only in Xue Yao's eyes, and now that he has encountered a major event, even a thicker filter can't cover up Lu Qian's innate darkness ......
Xue Yao was filled with worry: "If your elder brother knew that you were beaten with a plate in order to purposely create a false impression and bring the party together, he would definitely be angry."
Lu Qian pursed his lips and smiled, "Big Brother thought Master was playing poor."
"But he will know sooner or later." Xue Yao reminded, "When the cabinet drafts the bill, your elder brother will definitely guess that you authorized it privately."
"Master must marry you."
"It's not like you have to have a name, you can't do bad things for a name."
"Establishing a new law is a bad thing?" Lu Qian rarely showed a serious questioning look to his young companion, "Men's style prevails in Jiangnan, Liangguang, and other places, without the king's law, who will protect them? Who will protect those who are forced to marry?"
Xue Yao said sharply, "You know what I mean by that, establishing a new law isn't a bad thing, but if you play tricks to achieve your goal, your elder brother will definitely be sad."
Lu Qian raised his eyebrows, "Big brother will lose to third brother just because he always thinks about motivation and justice, disregarding the effectiveness of the result, since he let master to take over the river and mountain, master will not be hamstrung by him everywhere."
"Even so, you don't have to turn him into an enemy." Xue Yao said sharply, "You can't break your big brother's heart for the sake of the two of us, we have plenty of time later, after you ascend the throne, you can gather imperial power within a few years, why should you antagonize your big brother now?"
Lu Qian honestly told Xue Yao, "If everything goes along with Big Brother's wishes, Master won't be able to see you for at least three years."
Xue Yao said seriously, "We don't want a name, your big brother won't make things difficult for us, isn't it good for us to just be together? It's been like this for over ten years, names mean nothing to me."
Lu Qian reminded in a deep voice, "It is impossible for the position of Empress to remain empty."
If you don't marry Yao Yao, you'll have to marry someone else.
Xue Yao froze.
"How long does Yao Yao want to evade?" Lu Qian pressed a step closer and stared hard at Xue Yao, "Compromising can only solve the problems of the moment, Master doesn't want to lead you towards a dead end, this matter can't be conceded from the start."
"When things are slow, they are round." Xue Yao's heart was exhausted, "You just have to pretend that you don't want a name now, so we can meet normally, and wait for you to ascend the throne for a few years after ......"
"In a couple years?" Lu Qian questioned.
"In two or three years at the most, you'll have the power to put a name to this."
Xue Yao understood too well how precious the friendship between Lu Qian and his brothers was, the human heart was too fragile, a pure person like Lu Jinan couldn't withstand betrayal over and over again, and even more so couldn't withstand the fact that his favorite brother had done such a thing.
"Yao Yao." Lu Qian tilted his head and asked suspiciously, "Do you think they will let Master drag on peacefully for three years? They will immediately arrange for a candidate for Empress, and at the beginning of the throne, they can use the Ancestral Traditions and the Empress Dowager to pressure Master, which will only hurt the peace even more when the time comes."
Xue Yao lowered his head.
"Yao Yao?" Lu Qian eagerly sought his approval.
Xue Yao whispered, "I don't want to see you sibling rivalry."
"That depends on what." Annoyance flashed in Lu Qian's eyes, "Except for you, Master can tolerate it all."
"There will always be other proper ways." Xue Yao looked at Lu Qian pleadingly, "Your big brother trusts us so much, you can't be so capricious and childish."
Lu Qian frowned and stared at Xue Yao: "Yao Yao is only childish, Yao Yao and big brother live in the words of the book, immaculate, black or white, meet the difficulties, such as 'things slow is round', no master Phi Thorn, where is the time for you to slow?"
"So you have to be bad to not be childish?"
"managed to marry you is bad?" Lu Qian anxious lips dry: "This world there is black and white, not remotely stained, that black does not exist, you must use them, balance them, in order to achieve the purpose, the master's purpose is only to marry you, marry you, is it bad?"
"I just think your approach is too aggressive." Xue Yao defended, "Let's all calm down and see if there's a way to not hurt your big brother."
"So let him hurt Master? He won't let Master see Yao Yao."
"I'll go talk to him." Xue Yao said, "If there is a possibility of a peaceful solution between us, we should never hurt the people who love us, pure feelings are too rare in this world, I don't want you to really become a loner in the future. Let me try, Master Seven, fighting and destruction are not the only things that can solve problems, if I fail, you can then use your own methods."
Lu Qian was impatient with Xue Yao for the first time, "Yao Yao will only give in."
"Then why did the seventh master fall in love with me?" Xue Yao raised her hand and cupped Lu Qian's chin, "Goodness is like water, and light is like dust, being too sharp will eventually make enemies everywhere. I have things in me that you don't have, are these just childish purity in your eyes? Then I want you to see clearly, what makes me able to make you enamored with me."
Xue Yao couldn't let Lu Qian follow his nature and do everything; what Lu Qian's nature lacked was the perception of emotions, and he would be rational to the point of being cold in order to achieve his goals.
But when one lives in the world, some detours are necessary for feelings worth cherishing, and if Lu Qian is allowed to choose his own shortcuts, he will one day turn back into the cold tyrant on the lonely throne.
Fortunately, Xue Yao did have a quality in her that Lu Qian couldn't figure out, like a magic weapon sent from heaven to restrain this little tyrant, always able to soften Lu Qian's sharpness in all directions.
"What does Yao Yao want to do?" Lu Qian unknowingly still chose to give in.
"I will seek an audience with King Rui tomorrow." Xue Yao urged, "Don't hint at the cabinet drafting new laws for the time being, it's better to have your elder brother on our side than to force him to go against us."
Lu Qian smiled bitterly, "He won't even see you."
"How do you know if you don't try?"
Lu Qian paused and nodded, "Ten days is the limit."
"Two months." Xue Yao knew that this matter could not be accomplished overnight.
"Ten days at most." Lu Qian refused to budge, in two months he would have ascended the throne, and it would be too late to plan anything.
"Ten days is definitely not enough." Xue Yao argued.
"Master has to go." Lu Qian glanced up at the moon, there was no time for further bargaining, so he lowered his head and moved closer, asking to kiss his fiancée goodbye.
"One and a half months." Xue Yao looked away, "Or else you won't even be allowed to kiss in the future."
Lu Qian immediately exploded, "If the fiancé wants to kiss, then kiss!"
"Who said that?" Xue Yao coldly clasped his arms in front of him, "He wouldn't even let His Highness hug him."
"To hug!"
"Hmph!" Xue Yao turned her head away and used her afterglow to observe the belly pup's expression, but she noticed a dark color suddenly crossing under Lu Qian's nose.
The moonlight can not see clearly, Xue Yao only back to the head, close to look closely, suddenly the brain "buzz" a bang!
He panicked and cupped Lu Qian's face, "Why do you have a nosebleed?"
Lu Qian froze, lowered his head and raised his hand to touch his lips, and sure enough, he felt blood.
A look up, his little companion has been scared crazy, an arm around his neck, tears and snot straight to the outside ......
"Are you suffering from internal injuries! What kind of beating did you get? Who dared to hit you so hard?" Xue Yao collapsed, she must have injured her internal organs to be bleeding from her mouth and nose, reaching out to touch Lu Qian's back waist, "Did you hit here?"
Lu Qian didn't answer, and once again pressed the little companion against the wall and "nibbled" on her.
However, Xue Yao was so scared that she was about to be paralyzed, tears and snot prevented the texture of the passionate kiss, Lu Qian had to straighten up and confess: "Yao Yao don't cry, there are no internal injuries, mother consort feeds too much tonic soup to master in the afternoon."
"Why didn't you say so earlier!" Xue Yao immediately refused to let the kiss go, coldly businesslike, "Give me a month's time, all right?"
Lu Qian looked unhappy.
"Okay? Just for a month, Master Seven?" Xue Yao performed the Twist a Twist Divine Technique.
