Brother Huang, he has been planning for a long time

It's night, the sky is covered like black velvet, and the countless stars are like bright pearls in the night.

The weather in April is gradually warming up.

But there was still a hint of coolness in the night.

Qingchen tossed and turned in bed unable to fall asleep, so she had to stand in front of the window sill and open the window.

He looked at the cold moon in the night sky in trance, and then sighed.

She suddenly remembered the conversations she had with Gu Xunzhi in the small garden today.

She had a talk with him with the idea of ​​becoming a couple in name only.

As a result, he moved out of his clan rules.

One pair for life people.

This clan rule is good.

But she doesn't love him.

He has only met himself a few times, and he doesn't love himself at all.

How can we be together for the rest of our lives?

Qingchen sighed again.

"Princess, don't sigh." At this moment, a man in black jumped out of the tree not far away.

Qingchen took a closer look and realized it was Zhong Shui. He was holding a slender grass root at the corner of his mouth.

"Why did you suddenly show up again?"

Compared to the two guards, the imperial brother and Qingmu, Zhong Shui is much more active.

Of course, he talks a lot.

"I was afraid that the princess would be bored, so I came out to talk to the princess for a while." Originally, he himself was bored staying in the tree.

He stood outside the window and looked at the cold moon in the night sky. "The moonlight is quite beautiful tonight. Princess, you can tell me what's on your mind."

"Then you ran to tell Brother Huang, right?" Qingchen snorted and glared at him.

"How could it be? The princess told me not to speak to His Highness, and I will not say a single word to His Highness." Zhong Shui took the grass root from the corner of his mouth and vowed.

"Really?" Qingchen expressed doubts about his words.

"of course."

Qingchen thought that he was indeed troubled, and this person suddenly appeared again in the middle of the night when no one was around.

She took a deep breath and spoke out what was worrying her.

"I originally thought about finding a consort to marry out of the palace and live a free life..." She was interrupted by Zhong Shui before she could finish her words.

"When a princess marries out of the palace and is trapped in a small house, how can she be considered free?"

"..." This makes sense, she was like that in her last life.

Qingchen frowned slightly, his watery eyes filled with light, and couldn't help but look at him, "Then I can negotiate with him. He can live his life, and I can live my life. I can ask my father to promote him. As long as he doesn't interfere with me, that's fine."

Zhong Shui laughed after hearing this: "Being a couple in name only?"

"Yes." Qingchen nodded.

"Princess, your idea is wrong."

"What's wrong?"

"You are not an ugly person. How could a man not want to touch you after marrying you home?" Zhong Shui took the grass root in his mouth again.

"What do you mean by this?" Qingchen's face turned cold.

Do men have to follow their senses?

Sailor Zhong held his chin and stared at the person in front of him seriously.

Thinking that even the master who had seen countless beauties in the north but still never approached women was attracted to the person in front of him.

Not to mention Gu Xunzhi, who hasn't seen many women.

"Princess, you are beautiful. Gu Xunzhi married you because he wanted to be a real couple with you, not a couple in name only. Princess, you made a wrong move." Zhong Shui said bluntly. .

Hearing this, Qingchen nodded thoughtfully, "Come to think of it, there's nothing wrong with being a real couple with Gu Xunzhi. At least his family rules are pretty good, and you'll be a couple for the rest of your life."

Zhong Shui suddenly became anxious, "No, no, no, no, princess, you have to think clearly. Then Gu Xunzhi is a civil servant, what good is it? If you can't lift your hands and shoulders, you may ask me for help when you are in danger, princess." Come back to protect him."

"Then wouldn't it be better for me to choose you as my consort? You're not bad looking, and your martial arts skills are pretty strong. You can protect me when I'm in danger." Qingchen looked at him with a gloomy smile.

Zhong Shui was immediately frightened so much that the grass roots from the corner of his mouth fell to the ground, and he almost lost his balance and sprained his feet, "Princess, please don't make such a joke with your subordinates!"

If his master knew this, he would definitely be destroyed by his master!

"Okay, I'm tired and I'm going to rest. If you have nothing to do, go back. There are guards guarding the door of this palace. I'll be fine." After that, Qingchen closed the window.

Zhong Shui shrugged and left the Mingyue Palace obediently.

When he returned to the palace, he told Yue Qinghe exactly what Qingchen had said to him. Of course, Qingchen didn't dare to say the last word as a joke.

Hearing this, Yue Qinghe looked at the flickering candlelight and said nothing.

Zhong Shui looked at his master and didn't give any instructions, but quietly exited the study.

"Two people for life..." Yue Qinghe whispered these words, "Yue Qingchen, if you want it, I can give it to you as a brother."

……

The wedding date to Gu Xunzhi has not yet been chosen, but the princess examination has come.

This is the first time Qingchen has participated in the princess assessment.

In the morning, there was a test on piano and chess, and in the afternoon, there was a test on calligraphy and painting.

At the end of the day, these four things were barely qualified.

Then tomorrow we will take the horse riding and archery tests.

Then this is completely over.

During this time, due to her marriage, she had not practiced horseback riding and archery for a long time.

As soon as the results of the assessment came out, Qingchen walked back to Mingyue Palace with a gloomy look on his face.

"Cousin." Ling Yu appeared out of nowhere. As soon as he appeared, he suddenly grabbed her wrist and said with excitement, "I heard that the emperor gave you and Gu Xunzhi a marriage?"

He and Gu Xunzhi were both civil servants, so they knew each other.

Qingchen saw that his eyes were red and the hand holding her wrist was very strong. She frowned and hurriedly tried to break away from his big hand, "Eighth brother-in-law, what are you doing? Let me go quickly..."

If someone like Yue Qingqian saw what she was doing to her in this palace, she would not be able to explain it clearly even with a hundred words.

"Tell me, is this true?" Ling Yu only wanted one answer.

"Then Father's imperial edict has been issued, is there any falsehood?" Qingchen struggled to free himself from his big hand, thinking that he was so strong when he was usually so weak, "Eighth brother-in-law, let go, it's all done" It hurts me!"

The fair and tender little face was slightly wrinkled in pain.

Ling Yu was in a daze. Hearing Qingchen say it hurt, he hurriedly let go of her wrist, "I'm sorry, cousin..."

Qingchen saw that his face was not very good, and thought about how to say that when she was young, he took good care of her.

Still asked with concern, "Eighth brother-in-law, are you okay?"

"Okay?" Ling Yu sighed deeply, his eyes full of bloodshot eyes, "How is it okay? I married a woman I don't love at all. The woman I have loved for many years is about to marry someone else. Cousin, do you think I can be okay?"

How does this sound...

Qingchen vaguely thought of something in his heart.

He just felt that he could not stay with him any longer, so he said: "Eighth brother-in-law, don't think so much. Since you and the Eighth Emperor sister are married, you should live a good life with the Eighth Emperor sister. If nothing happens, ,I go first."

After that, Qingchen took Yueji and was about to leave.

Ling Yu grabbed her wrist and said, "Cousin, do you want me to live a good life with the eighth princess?"

Catching her hand again?

Qingchen's head hurt, "Shouldn't it be? Sister Eight Emperors is your wife."

"But the one I love is you." At this moment, Ling Yu couldn't help but say the words buried deep in his heart.

"What are you doing here?"

After Ling Yu finished speaking, before Qingchen could finish his shock, Yue Qingqian's furious voice came from behind them.
