I was Idle and Cool - Chapter 152
This undoubtedly puts the power of choice in the hands of Lu Jinxi, and everyone can hear that it is no longer a marriage offer, but a marriage proposal.
Gu Juefei asks to marry Lu Jinxi.
As long as she nodded, she would get rid of the identity of Xue Kuang’s widow’s wife, leave the general’s mansion, and become Gu Juefei’s wife, bearing his surname.
As long as she shook her head, she would be a stranger to her from now on.
Just a thought, a thought.
It was clearly an extremely simple choice, and there was no difficulty in understanding it, but at this moment, Lu Jinxi felt a trance.
Because this decision did not seem to be as good as she thought.
On the Golden Palace, it was quiet.
Everyone’s eyes fell on Lu Jinxi, from Xiao Che to the civil and military officials below, including the former Xue Kuang’s former department, even the imperial master Gu Chengqian, the eldest princess Yongning, and…
Gu Juefei.
The expressions on each person’s face are different, but the kind of waiting is the same.
Marriage?
Marry Gu Juefei?
In the past, she had never been taken into consideration by her. After all, she was strong enough, and she was used to being alone. Her nature was unrestrained, and there was nothing wrong with living on her own.
Marriage is but a grave.
Whether in the past or now, Lu Jinxi never thought of burying herself.
Her reason is telling her: she should refuse.
But at this moment…
She felt an unprecedented hesitation, even though it was only so insignificant for a moment, even so fast that it was difficult for her to capture it.
But still caught.
So Lu Jinxi easily realized her extraordinary feelings for Gu Jue, and it was this extraordinary feeling that made her suddenly chuckle.
It’s a pity that it wasn’t enough to make her turn her back on her sanity.
The silence didn’t last long, Lu Jinxi blinked slightly, his eyes retracted from Gu Juefei’s standing figure, and fell on Xiao Che.
A smile on the lips.
She bowed back and respectfully said, “Report to the emperor, court lady—”
“Mrs. General.”
Xiao Che suddenly opened his mouth and interrupted Lu Jinxi before she gave her own choice and answer.
He stared at her, and at the smile on her lips.
Lu Jinxi couldn’t say what he said, and was slightly surprised at this time, and asked with a little doubt: “Your Majesty?”
“I have no other intentions. It’s just that the matter is big. This is not just a matter between you and Gu Juefei. It involves the Shangshu’s House, the Taishi’s House, and the General’s House.”
Xiao Che sat on the dragon chair, and when he said these words, he glanced at Gu Juefei again.
To be honest, he was still a little hesitant.
But if you don’t say anything, it’s too late.
Although he is the emperor, the superior is ruthless, but if he is allowed to watch Lu Jinxi make a wrong decision, he can’t bear it, he just points at her and said: “If you don’t marry, everything will remain the status quo, and the madam is still the widow of the general. , everyone respects three points of the imperial court, and appoints the lady; if you get married, according to the law, you will deprive the lady of the original title, and the old honor will be gone. I hope that the general’s wife will consider carefully before making a choice. “
Yes.
If you marry Gu Juefei, you will no longer be a first-class official conferred by the imperial court, and you will no longer have the same seat as the Taishi’s birthday banquet or palace banquet, and you will no longer be able to sit on an equal footing with the Taishi’s wife Tang or Taifu’s wife Dong. .
But what does this have to do with her?
Lu Jinxi didn’t intend to accept this marriage, so there was no change in the expression on his face, still with a calm smile.
She opened her mouth and wanted to reply to Xiao Che again.
Unexpectedly, at this time, an indifferent voice sounded from her side—
“Your Majesty thinks too much.”
It was Gu Juefei, he laughed, his face full of sharpness, self-confidence, conceit, and a clear voice.
“Her appointment, I will earn it. If Xue Kuang can give it, I can give it!”
Her destiny is earned by him.
If Xue Kuang can give it, he can give it!
What kind of arrogant nonsense is this?
What a moving story?
In the originally peaceful Golden Palace, the civil and military officials all widened their eyes when they heard this, and they were blown away by this sentence.
Xue Kuang.
In the past, he fought in the South and the North and was a real hero, a general, a first-rank official, and full of glory!
And what about Gu Juefei at this moment?
He is only a fifth-rank civil official, and the road ahead is paved with visible thorns. No one can deny his ability and talent, no one can deny his background and family, but the same…
It is also impossible to ignore his recent difficult situation.
In a sense, it is much more difficult to be a civil servant than a military officer.
Military generals make achievements, they are all visible, and they are the easiest to gain the reputation of the people. What about civil servants? Standing in this court, even if he did 110,000 good deeds to benefit the country and the people, he was rarely noticed.
Just because there is no halo and glory of the bloodbath.
Lu Jinxi is a first-class official.
It took less than four years for Xue Kuang to be promoted to the first rank; how long did it take for Gu Juefei, a civil servant, to be promoted to the first rank?
Not to mention that the courtroom is changing rapidly, and no one can predict the way forward!
crazy.
He was insane when he said that!
Hundreds of officials from the court and the field were shocked by his boldness and boldness in their hearts. They faintly felt that he cared about Lu Jinxi, but they also sighed in their hearts almost at the same time.
——I don’t know if it’s for themselves, or just for Gu Juefei’s desperate gamble that has given up everything at this moment.
They thought he was crazy.
But Gu Juefei knew that he was awake, unprecedentedly awake.
The smile on his face didn’t even fade away. After saying something that could be called an offense to the emperor, he just turned his eyes and looked at Lu Jinxi.
On the same golden palace.
At this moment, standing here and looking at each other, it is not Master Gu and the general’s wife. Yes, it’s just Gu Juefei and Lu Jinxi.
A man, a woman.
that is it.
He is a gambler, a gambler who has nothing but this talent.
Everything today is his gamble.
Whether he loses or wins, he doesn’t care.
Lost, but continue to have nothing.
can win…
He will have the whole world.
At this moment, Lu Jinxi’s gaze could not even escape from his abyss-like eyes, as if Liu Ying was trapped in a huge spider web.
She is his prey.
But at the same time, he crawled down and gave his prey all that he had, his future, his dignity, and his emotions.
As long as she spit out the word “unwilling” that she had prepared, she could easily knock him down, or even destroy him.
Leave him with nothing.
make him notorious.
Can……
How to get started?
The first time we met, it was she who saw through his painting, standing in the back alley of the sunset, soft words, and confuse him; when we met again, she hid in the library next to the street on a whim, and threw that pen towards Get him, let him be deeply rooted.
Now look at-
Who saw through whose painting skin?
Who is it, who have you turned your heart to?
I will earn your destiny.
It was his confession and his confession.
Lu Jinxi heard it, and even at this moment, the voice next to her could not be heard. The only thing that echoed in her ears was the low sigh he murmured in front of Yanchi Mountain that day…
Like a spell.
On the splendid and solemn Golden Palace, Gu Taishi looked at her, the eldest princess looked at her, Lu Jiuling looked at her, Fang Shaoxing looked at her…
Everyone looked at her.
Even Xiao Che’s heart had a feeling of dangling: “Ms. Lu, have you thought about it?”
Lu Jinxi blinked lightly, and quietly pulled his gaze away from Gu Juefei’s eyes, turned around, bowed his head, and bowed to the high-ranking Nine-Five.
There was a hint of helplessness in the soft voice.
Even confused.
It was as if she didn’t even understand herself.
Like a dream.
Whether it was for herself, for Gu Juefei, or for the eldest Princess Yongning who suddenly fell into a trance and couldn’t believe it—
“Your Majesty’s Mingjian. Lord Gu, Jin Xishi can’t bear to refuse…”
