Brother Huang, he has been planning for a long time

Qingchen has recently completely put aside the matter of copying "The Analects of Confucius".

However, she did not dare to take things lightly regarding He Lanyan.

Every time she learned to ride a horse, she would cook a few dishes and go to the cold palace to find He Lanyan.

This time, when He Lanyan saw her climbing over the palace wall, he moved the table out of the palace and asked her to jump off by herself.

Qingchen placed the food box on the stone table and looked at the new wooden table, a little confused, "Did I get a new table for you?"

"Well." He Lanyan did not continue the topic on the wooden table, but asked her: "Are you free these days?"

"Yes." Qingchen brought out the dishes, "Come on, eat it while it's hot."

He Lanyan was not polite, sat down on the stone bench opposite her, picked up his chopsticks and ate directly.

Qingchen sat with her hands on her chin, watching him eat and look elegant, and said with emotion: "You said at your age, if you are still a prince in your own country, I am afraid that you have already married a wife."

He Lanyan looked a little surprised at this question, "Why... bring this up?"

"Oh, no." Qingchen came to deliver meals to him for several days in a row, and Qingchen knew that she was already very familiar with him.

She knew that his personality was inherently taciturn.

Maybe it's because he was locked up here and hasn't interacted with others for a long time, so he has such a personality.

Qingchen tried his best to change him.

So occasionally I would chat with him about my vision for the future life.

For example, she will say that she hopes that the country and the people will be safe, the world will be peaceful, and there will be no war.

He would sneer at her and call her naive.

"In our country of Dongming, most men will get married when they are in their prime. Women will get married after they get haircut. I think you must be in your prime."

He Lanyan took a sip of the soup, glanced at her, and asked, "Are you old enough?"

"Of course I'm in time."

"It just so happens that I'm a weakling. Do you want to get together with me?" There was a hint of expectation in his eyes.

But Qing Shen did not take these words seriously, but laughed and said, "I didn't expect you to have such a sense of humor."

He Lanyan didn't explain, just lowered his eyes and continued eating.

Qingchen looked at the gray sky, breathed out a breath of warm air, and suddenly there was heat mist in front of him.

She murmured softly: "He Lanyan, if you can return to Xihe Kingdom, can you be a good king and stop provoking wars?"

He Lanyan frowned when he heard this.

He looked up at her doubtfully, only to see that she was not looking at him at this time, her eyes were still in the distance.

In the past few days, whenever she had time to come over to deliver meals, the topic she talked about was always about her return to Nishiga Country.

Did she really encounter the side of herself and her subordinates that she planned that day?

He Lanyan did not answer directly, but put down his chopsticks and said: "Whether I can go back to Xihe Country is still a question. How can I start a war?"

"Then if you can go back, will you attack Dongming Kingdom?" Qingchen looked at him suddenly, his watery eyes full of seriousness.

This was the first time she asked him this question so directly.

He Lanyan and her looked at each other, the air seemed to condense at this time, everything seemed quiet, even each other's breathing and heartbeats could be vaguely heard.

And besides the seriousness in her eyes, he also saw a hint of uneasiness.

He Lanyan directly reached out and held her little hand, "If I can leave, I will definitely take you away."

In this way, she no longer has to worry about whether he will attack Xiga Kingdom.

Qingchen pulled out his hand unnaturally, stood up quickly and turned his back to him, "I...how could I leave with you."

"Are you afraid of becoming a traitor?" He Lanyan was still sitting on the stone bench, looking at her slender back with a calm expression.

"I..." Of course she was afraid of becoming a traitor.

If she followed him, she would indeed be accused of treason.

Besides, she was fine in Dongming Country, how could she leave with him?

What did He Lanyan think? Why do you always want to take yourself away?

"I was just chatting casually with you, why did I mention treason?" Qingchen took a deep breath, turned around and walked towards him, and sat down opposite him, "Do you feel cold when you go to bed at night? "

He Lanyan shook his head gently, "No, the clothes you gave me are enough to keep out the cold."

"That's fine."

Just like that, the atmosphere between the two of them cooled down.

Because He Lanyan was a man of few words, if Qing Chen didn't speak, he would basically not speak.

So most of the time, Qingchen is talking and he is listening, occasionally responding with a word or two.

Qingchen sat for a while and didn't say anything else. He was mainly afraid that mentioning his return to Xihe Country would arouse his suspicion.

So I mention it without any trace every time.

Not daring to talk in depth, she looked at the sky, stood up, cleared the plates on the stone table, and picked up the food box.

"It's time for me to go back and come back tomorrow." After saying that, she stepped on the wooden table and climbed up the palace wall.

He Lanyan looked at the figure disappearing on the palace wall with a gloomy expression.

……

Qing Shen's daily life is very regular now.

After getting up early in the morning and having breakfast, we went to the racecourse to learn horse riding and archery.

She has become more and more proficient in riding horses, and under her careful care, Erbao can now run and jump.

But in terms of archery, she is really weak, and she can't draw the bow and arrow no matter what.

This made her a little frustrated.

After leaving the racecourse, he returned to Mingyue Palace to cook, and occasionally sent it to his father.

Then go to Leng Palace to find He Lanyan.

After coming back, I took a shower and then started a night of copying "The Analects of Confucius".

The rules were such that she thought it would be pretty good to live like this in her life.

As long as the queen no longer troubles her, Yue Qingqian should not appear again.

However, she knew that such a life would not last long...

It took half a month for Yue Qinghe to hear the news of returning to the palace.

A prisoner was also escorted.

This person is Zhao Qide.

Yueji heard the news from a young eunuch who served in the Mingyi Palace.

Speak directly to your master.

"Zhao Qide!" Qingchen was slightly shocked when he heard these three words.

Yue Ji did not find anything wrong with her, and continued: "Yes, princess, this Zhao Qide is the son of the Minister of Hubu. I heard that the Queen Mother is the aunt of the Minister of Hubu, so Zhao Qide can be regarded as the princess's cousin. "

Of course Qingchen knew that Zhao Qide was his cousin who could not be beaten with eight poles.

I was ruined by him in my previous life...

Her face darkened, her hands clenched into fists, and she listened quietly to what Yue Ji said about him.

"But, Zhao Qide didn't pass the examination, and our emperor doesn't allow him to donate his official position, so he can only stay at home. I heard that Zhao Qide went out to visit flower houses and casinos, where he ate, drank, whored and gambled without missing a beat."

"Recently, he went to Bin'er City to work as a rice merchant. He happened to encounter His Highness the Fifth Highness who went to investigate the disaster relief undercover. In front of His Highness, he actually asked the Fifth Highness to buy the broken rice he had hoarded at a high price, saying that he would The profit was shared equally with His Highness. His Highness the Fifth was caught in the act and is now in prison. The Minister of Household Affairs is still begging the Emperor for help."
