It was love at first sight.

But it was not love at first sight for Princess Huai'an as in her sister's dream, but love at first sight for this rebellious girl disguised as a man.

They barely escaped the assassin's pursuit. It was getting late at that time, and the girl wanted to go back, but he wouldn't let him go.

Shen Du went to Huaizhou just to see what Princess Huai'an looked like. When people saw her, he had to turn back to Meizhou. Helping the people of Meizhou avoid the earthquake was his top priority.

The girl walked a few steps away, turned back and said, "I will go to Kyoto in a short time. Let's meet at Huguo Temple then."

One of them was not sure when he would go to Beijing, and the other was not sure how long he would stay in Meizhou.

Then there was an agreement to meet Xiu Liu at Huguo Temple.

If they don't meet on the sixth day of the lunar month, they will meet on the sixteenth day.

If Sixteen hasn’t met yet, then meet Twenty-Six.

After making an agreement, Shen Du went to Meizhou the next day. After being delayed for many days in Meizhou, he hurried back to Beijing.

He was looking forward to meeting the girl, but on the day he returned to Beijing, he received an imperial edict from the emperor to marry her. It was like a bucket of cold water poured on him from beginning to end, which chilled him to the core.

He knew that the emperor would not grant him a marriage for no reason. His sister and brother-in-law must have asked for it for him. He knew that they were doing it for his own good, but he underestimated their concern for him. He did not fall in love with his sister as much as in his dream. The Prince of Huai'an County did not write a book to tell them. It was his negligence.

Xie Jingyan asked the emperor to grant him a marriage, and also asked the emperor to take back the imperial edict of marriage given to him. This angered the emperor and was injured by the emperor.

The emperor issued a decree granting marriage, how could he take back the decree?

On the appointed day, he went to Huguo Temple early in the morning and waited for the girl under the bodhi tree.

After waiting for a quarter of an hour, she came.

They looked at each other from a distance.

They were already engaged, and even their steps towards each other were heavy.

The lively girl suddenly became calm as if she had changed her temper.

They had endless things to talk about in Huaizhou, but after meeting again after a few days, it seemed that they suddenly had nothing to say.

The two of them faced the green mountains in the distance.

a long time.

When there is silence, neither of them say anything. When they say something, the two of them are together again.

"I'm engaged."

The two said in unison.

After that, there was another silence.

"Congratulations."

They both opened their mouths together.

Shen Du looked at the red corners of her eyes and asked, "Do you like him?"

The girl said with tears in her eyes, "He has both civil and military skills, a good family background, and good character. I will like him."

After saying that, she smiled and asked, "What about you, do you like her?"

Shen Du said with a sour nose, "She has unparalleled looks. She is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and song. I will also like her."

"When will you get married?" Shen Du asked.

"next month."

"What about you?"

"I will also get married next month."

The two said nothing again.

Finally the girl couldn't stand it anymore and turned around and left.

He stood there in a daze for a while. When he was leaving Huguo Temple on horseback, he met Yun Qi going to Huguo Temple. The boy couldn't stop Yun Qi. Seeing him was like seeing a savior.

He was in a depressed mood and was not in the mood to persuade Yun Qi, so he directly knocked him out and took him back.

These days, the Marquis Mansion was busy preparing for a wedding banquet for him, but he was not happy at all. It was obvious that he and the girl had only met once in Huaizhou, and they had only been together for a few hours before she fell into his heart. After leaving, the more he wanted to forget her, but the day they met in Huaizhou was like a knife and ax carved in his mind. The more he wanted to forget her, the clearer his memory became.

He got married yesterday, and no matter how reluctant he was in his heart, he still had to pretend to be happy and marry the princess of Huai'an whom the emperor had given him in marriage.

But he couldn't go against his own heart. He didn't want to face the wedding night with Princess Huai'an, so he chose to escape. At the wedding banquet, he refused anyone who offered him wine, and he drank and vomited himself three times. Finally, he was helped back drunk.

The boy wanted to help him into the new house, but he drank and went crazy and shouted that he wanted to sleep in the study. The boy tried his best to push him into the new house. Seeing that he was about to succeed, the princess of Huai'an said, "Help him go to the study."

After receiving the order, the boy immediately pushed him instead of pulling him, almost dragging him to the study.

He slept in the study all night.

Woke up with a hangover and a splitting headache.

He may not consummate the marriage with Princess Huai'an, but he cannot help but accompany her to serve tea to the elders.

He was still wearing a wedding robe, and his brocade robes were all in the room. He had no choice but to go back and change. As he walked toward the inner room, he happened to meet a girl coming out of the room.

That familiar face made him think he was dreaming.

He saw her and she saw him.

Shen Du took two steps quickly and asked, "Why did you come out of my room?!"

Princess Huai'an looked at him, her voice trembling, "You...why are you in Pingyang Marquis Mansion?!"

"I am Prince Pingyang, where would I be if I were not here?" Shen Du said.

"...I am the Princess of Huai'an."

You two look at me and I look at you.

They all looked like they had been struck by lightning a hundred and eighty times.

The maid in the yard was even more confused.

Why do you feel that the prince and his wife are very familiar yet not familiar at the same time?

Only here did they realize how outrageous their life had been these days.

They didn't even know that the person they were going to marry was the one they loved each other.

I shed tears every day, and drown my sorrows in wine every night.

Shen Du pulled Princess Huai'an into the house and asked, "Why didn't you tell me that you are Princess Huai'an?"

The Princess of Huai'an blushed and said, "You don't know that I am the Princess of Huai'an. You said in front of me that you would fall in love with me at first sight and would not marry me unless you married me. I told you that I am the Princess of Huai'an. How embarrassing..."

Shen Du had nothing to say, he said, "The person who was in Prince An's Mansion that day was not Princess Huai'an, who was that?"

Princess Huai'an said, "That's my cousin."

Shen Du, "..."

Only this morning did Shen Du know that Princess Huai'an was grounded by Princess An because she sneaked out of the mansion. Princess Huai'an didn't like the boredom in the mansion and thought that after returning to Beijing, she would no longer be like she was in Huaizhou. She became so willful that she begged her cousin to help her fool her father, the queen, mother and concubines, and she disguised herself as a man and went out of the house to play in a dog hole.

She couldn't hide her little thoughts from Prince An and Princess An. They were the ones who arranged the two local gangsters. They were afraid that she would still be so willful after entering the capital, so they let her know in advance that people's hearts are sinister. However, she didn't expect that her foolproof plan would run into Shen Du, and not only the plan would fail. Yes, my daughter lost her heart, and my son was beaten.

Princess An didn't know that Shen Du was the prince of Pingyang Hou, so she thought he was a young master from some family in Huaizhou. She was afraid that he might kidnap the princess of Huai'an's heart, so she went to Beijing in advance.

Princess Huai'an has a lively temperament. Let me ask the brothers and sisters of the same mother. Prince An is not afraid of anything and is not afraid of getting into trouble everywhere. How can Princess Huai'an be so gentle and quiet? Prince Du Guogong is the one she begged her eldest brother to help. She doesn't want to Marry someone you don't like.

But she could refuse to marry anyone who came to ask for her hand in marriage, but she could not refuse the marriage offered by the imperial decree. She was afraid of running into Shen Du when she left the palace. Ever since she said goodbye to Shen Du that day, Princess Huai'an had not left Prince An's palace in these days.

Shen Du had seen "Princess Huai'an" with his own eyes, so he didn't think that she was Princess Huai'an.

Princess Huai'an heard Shen Du say that she did not like "Princess Huai'an". In addition, Shen Du boasted that the girl he wanted to marry was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and song. Princess Huai'an did not think that Shen Du was the one she wanted to marry. people think.

The two people, who should be overjoyed to have gotten what they wanted, had to live through more than twenty heart-wrenching days.

God knows how happy Shen Du was to know that Princess Huai'an was the one he wanted to marry. After serving tea with Princess Huai'an, he couldn't wait to come to Xie Jingyan and tell him the good news, so that Xie Jingyan would not feel guilty for doing bad things with good intentions.

Xie Jingyan held his forehead and said with twitching corners of his mouth, "That beating I received was really unjust."
