The stand-in didn't take it seriously for three years, and the minister was furious when they b

When he opened his palm, he saw that there was a dent in the belly of the small gourd, as if it had been hit hard.

His gourd is broken.

His eyes widened again and again, Beitang Yi rubbed the obvious flaw with his fingertips several times but failed to remove it. Suddenly, he was so panicked that his eyes blurred for a moment:

The only thing she gave him, the last thought she had for him, was actually broken?

Thinking of the brief confrontation between them just now, she looked at him with such indifference, she thought he had thrown away her gourd and didn't want to give it to her again, Beitang Yi's mind was in a mess.

He stroked it anxiously a few more times, and suddenly remembered that she had also touched this gourd. He felt like he was pushed into hell, and he couldn't help but close his eyes in pain.

Oh no, this is a big misunderstanding.

He broke his promise to her and he hadn't protected the gift she gave him. She must have thought that he didn't care and didn't cherish it, and he destroyed the gift she had made with her own hands.

She was afraid that she would never see him again.

She would never forgive him.

After moving several times and looking at him several times without getting a response, Yu Wei reached out and tugged at his sleeve:

"Brother Beitang?"

She called out softly, and smiled as she handed over the golden gourd in her hand:

"That one is broken, you can use this one, this one is made by me..."

Before she could utter the word "made up", her hand that was extended forward was suddenly pushed away. Yu Wei staggered and took several steps back. The gourd pendant in her hand was also thrown out.

"Who gave you permission to take the initiative and touch my things?"

"Brother Beitang?"

Tears welled up in her eyes. Yu Wei couldn't believe that the person who had been so gentle to her, hugged her and brought her gifts before could be so mean to her just for a pendant:

"Why are you pushing me? You treat a broken gourd as a treasure? I bumped into you on the road last time, and I saw that you liked it and the rope was worn out, so I wanted to make a new one for you. I'm sincere to you, why do you treat me like this?"

"I spent two days writing this."

Yu Wei choked and suddenly thought of something. She was stunned again:

"That, that wasn't a gift from my sister?"

On second thought, she didn't think the rough workmanship was the right thing to do. Besides, her sister was now the Crown Princess and it was impossible for her to do such a thing. If it was given many years ago, the degree of wear and tear would be too light. Moreover, she had obtained the consent of her family, including the Crown Princess, for her thoughts.

"Brother Beitang, you have never treated me like this before."

"You promised my sister that you would treat me well. Now that my sister is married, do you not love me anymore?"

Hearing this, Beitang Yi's expression became even uglier, and his mind was full of another thought:

Does it take several days to compile such a small thing?

Wouldn't it take her longer to weave given her rough and unskilled craftsmanship?

He ruined her feelings.

They just met by chance in the attic, and he thought it was just a little girl playing tricks on him, but unexpectedly, she actually snatched his purse and wanted to replace his amulet. Finally, during the argument between the two, she threw it down.

Regret and anger are not enough to describe Beitang Yi's mood at this moment.

For the first time, he felt a little disgusted and fed up with this family.

He turned around and was about to leave when a soft figure suddenly rushed up to him and hugged him:

"Brother Beitang, don't be angry with me. Don't you know that I have always liked you?"

"I have no ill intentions, Brother Beitang. I will be a 15-year-old in two days."

"I want to marry you..."

Mu Lianzhi was talking to Xiao Tingrui when she turned the corner. She glanced at the scene out of the corner of her eye and saw this scene. With a smile on her lips, she paused unconsciously.

Then, the group disappeared to the side of the corridor.

After being obviously panicked for two seconds, Beitang Yi pushed her away with a cold face while she cried loudly:

"What are you talking about?"

Some couldn't believe her ears and took two steps back. Beitang Yi looked her up and down:

"Miss Yu San, do you know what you are doing and saying?"

Fortunately, there is no one around.

Otherwise, her reputation would be ruined.

Although she was still underage, she could still use the excuse of "not knowing better" to get away with it, but this was too much:

"Miss Third, please forgive me for being blunt. I think you are too young to be my sister. I don't like you either. Miss Third, please be careful about your words and actions in the future. It's best to keep your distance from me."

Yu Wei wanted to step forward and say something, but Beitang Yi glanced at her coldly:

“This is a notification, not a notice.”

"Miss San had better remember this. Don't blame me for not giving you face or a way out next time. I loved my former fiancée's little sister, not you."

"And now I am alone and have no fiancée. Your Prime Minister's Mansion means nothing to me."

"You'd better remember this for me."

Beitang Yi waved his hand and strode away.

……

That day, Beitang Yi looked for many opportunities to meet her. However, when he saw her again, she had already returned to the vicinity of the Marquis' Mansion, making it the most inconvenient for him to approach her.

He was afraid of causing her more trouble.

In the end, until the banquet started, he still didn't get another chance to get close to her.

When he sat down in the field, Beitang Yi felt even worse.

That day, Si Chao also came, following Ying Feng as a counselor and specially hired. As soon as he arrived beside Beitang Yi, he felt that the atmosphere was not right:

"What's wrong? What happened again?"

Following his line of sight to the small green figure behind the lower left side of the opposite side, Si Chao still had something he didn't understand.

It was because of a certain woman.

Seeing that Mu Lianzhi had been half-lowering her head since she sat down, she was either eating or whispering to the maid beside her. From time to time, she seemed to secretly put some food into the maid's mouth, but she never raised her head to look over here. Si Chao observed for a moment and asked tentatively:

"You haven't seen anyone for so long, have you?"

Beitang Yi's face darkened, and he couldn't help but be stunned:

He arrived early and made preparations in advance. It has been at least two hours, but he didn't see anyone?

No matter how big the palace is or how many people there are, how long does it take to just talk to each other in such a long time?

Not so!

Si Chao was puzzled.

Withdrawing his lonely gaze, Beitang Yi raised his glass and drank it all.

I don't know since when, but her eyes would never fall on him, let alone joy or sadness.

Beitang Yi has a clear intuition.

He knew that he had lost her. He wanted to find her, he wanted to explain to her, he wanted to see her, but every time it went against his wishes, and it seemed to push him further away...

The more he understood, the more upset he became.

He wanted to go crazy, he wanted to kill people.

Unconsciously, he slowly raised his gaze and turned to another place, remaining still for a long time.

Just as the expectation turned into disappointment, a loud announcement came from outside the door:

"The Emperor has arrived, the Empress Dowager has arrived, the Empress has arrived—"
