The prince supports her, and the reborn princess kills people

Six years later.

On the top of the mountain, amidst the mist, there is a quiet and secluded courtyard.

A man in plain clothes was pruning flowers in the yard.

He was about thirty or forty years old, but still had an upright posture, a handsome and resolute face. There were not many signs of aging on him, but instead there was an air of dignity that could not be concealed.

From time to time, he chatted with the woman who was sitting under the peach tree reading a book, and the atmosphere between the two was particularly warm.

After a long time, the woman stretched, put down the book, and said half-coquettishly.

"Husband, I want to eat the squirrel mandarin fish you made yourself~"

Gu Beihuai put down the long scissors, walked over and rubbed her head.

"Okay, okay, I'll do it for Yan'er right away."

The two of them spent six years traveling to almost every corner of Tianfeng Country. Later, when they were tired, they came to live in this villa in the mountains.

Coincidentally, this villa was the one where Shen Qingyan lived when she left three years ago, and Jiang Mufan gave it to them directly.

Gu Beihuai said that he wanted to use the next three years to make up for the three years he was not with Shen Qingyan.

Not long after, a dish of delicious squirrel mandarin fish was served on the table.

"Wow, husband, your cooking skills have improved again~"

Gu Beihuai said rather arrogantly: "What else does Yan'er want to eat? Just tell me, I'm just afraid you won't give your husband a chance to show off his skills."

In recent years, Gu Beihuai has fallen in love with cooking and often makes various delicious dishes for Shen Qingyan.

Shen Qingyan studied medicine. On the surface, it was a hobby, but it was also for the purpose of curing Gu Beihuai's heart disease.

"Since my husband has said so, I won't be polite. I also want to eat eight-treasure duck, cloud cake, lotus root, braised duck, cherry shark fin..."

"Stop." Gu Beihuai interrupted her with a serious face, "They are all meat dishes. What if you eat too much and get irritated? Eight Treasure Duck and Cloud Cake are fine. Change the others to vegetarian dishes. Be good."

Shen Qingyan pouted, her still pretty and delicate face showing a hint of reluctance, but she still changed obediently.

"Okay, then I want to eat the golden hanging gourd and Luohan vegetarian food."

"Okay, I know Yan'er is the best."

After saying that, he kissed Shen Qingyan on the forehead and went to the kitchen to busy himself.

Shen Qingyan sighed helplessly. They had been together for so long, and they were an old married couple, but Gu Beihuai still treated her like a child.

Shen Qingyan was not idle either. She served the rice and placed the bowls and chopsticks in order. Just as she finished doing this, several cheerful female voices were heard from outside.

"lady!"

Shen Qingyan turned around and was immediately surprised.

"Qingmei, Zhiqingzhiyu, why are you here?"

The three were followed by Shuofeng and Jifeng, who all saluted.

"We were afraid that the vegetables you and the master grew wouldn't be enough, so we sent some here. Oh, and the emperor and the princess also sent some..."

Ever since Shen Qingyan and Gu Beihuai retired to the mountains, Qingmei and the others followed them and lived at the foot of the mountain.

Qingmei married Jifeng, Zhiyu and Shuofeng got together, and Zhiqing had a happy beginning with a guard.

Shisu Shion chose to continue working in the palace.

After entering the villa, I saw the table full of food and was surprised and amazed.

"Master's craftsmanship is really getting better and better."

Shuofeng sniffed and chuckled.

"I can smell the fragrance."

Just at this moment, Gu Beihuai just came out with a plate of Yunpian Cake. When he saw so many people, his face darkened.

"There is no share of your meal today."

Shuo Feng said shamelessly: "Master, we are just here to deliver something, we don't plan to stay, hehe."

Although he said he didn't want to stay, his eyes were actually fixed on the food on the table.

"Okay, stop looking at it. Your saliva is about to flow out."

Gu Beihuai said coldly: "What are you still standing there for? Go get the bowls and chopsticks."

Shufeng's eyes lit up and he hurried to the kitchen.

"My subordinate will go immediately."

In this mountain villa, there is no distinction between master and servant, only long-lasting friendship.

Everyone sat at the same table, eating happily and chatting happily.

After dinner, Qingmei remembered something else.

"By the way, the Lantern Festival is coming up in a few days. There will be a fireworks feast and Lantern Festival on Chang'an Street in the capital. I wonder if the master and the lady are interested in going?"

When Shen Qingyan heard this, she immediately became interested.

"Go, of course!"

It's good to go down the mountain and relax occasionally.

*

A few days later.

Shen Qingyan and Gu Beihuai dressed up a little and went to Chang'an Avenue for sightseeing.

Chang'an Avenue is brightly lit, bustling with people and extremely lively.

On both sides of the street, various colorful lanterns of various shapes are hung high, embellishing the night sky like a dream.

The hawkers’ cries came one after another, and there were also people selling all kinds of small gadgets. Shen Qingyan could hardly keep up.

Seeing a lifelike rabbit lantern, Shen Qingyan hurriedly said, "Husband, look, do you want to buy one for Tangtang?"

Gu Beihuai smiled and said softly, "How old is Tangtang now?"

Shen Qingyan suddenly came back to her senses. Yes, Tangtang is already a teenage girl.

I have reached the age of 15, and after that I will get married...

It’s a pity that after much searching, the two of them still couldn’t find a suitable candidate for Gu Huatang’s son-in-law.

Just as Shen Qingyan put down the lantern and prepared to leave, she heard a familiar voice behind her.

"Brother Mochen, look, isn't this rabbit lantern cute?"

Gu Beihuai and Shen Qingyan, who had not walked far yet, turned around at the same time and saw Gu Huatang, who was dressed in a low-key female outfit, holding the lantern they had just seen, and was happily talking to a young man in black behind him.

"Cute, but not nearly as cute as you."

"Huh, you're the only one who can talk."

The aura around Gu Beihuai suddenly became cold and his face became stern. Just as he was about to step forward, he was pulled aside by Shen Qingyan.

"Husband, don't be impulsive!"

Gu Beihuai gnashed his teeth and said, "Why does that stinky boy from the Xie family stay by Tangtang's side?"

Xie Mochen, the legitimate son of the Minister of War.

Shen Qingyan hurriedly whispered: "Husband, Tangtang has a man she likes, isn't this a good thing? I think this boy from the Xie family is not bad. Look, he is very polite to Tangtang, not breaking the rules at all, and even bought the lantern..."

Gu Beihuai became even more annoyed when he heard this.

"It's just a broken lantern. As long as Tangtang likes it, it's no problem to buy as many as you want!"

Shen Qingyan stroked her forehead with her hand and said patiently, "Husband, what Tangtang cares about is not the lantern, but Xie Mochen's feelings. As long as he treats Tangtang well in every way, that's not a problem."

Gu Beihuai still felt very angry, as if the cabbages he grew were eaten by pigs.

Shen Qingyan thought of a compromise.

"How about this, we follow Tangtang and Xie Mochen and see how he treats Tangtang. Just treat it as an inspection."

"If he fails, we'll let Tangtang leave him, how about that?"

Gu Beihuai thought about it and this was the only solution.
