When it comes to relationships, men are generally more proactive than women.
Most men will boldly pursue the woman they like when they see her; while women, even if they see a man they admire very much, will most likely be reserved and silent. Therefore, men are always emotional pursuers, while women prefer to enjoy the feeling of being pursued.
However, there is no shortage of proactive and bold women in the world. They are often more proactive than some timid men. Once she sees the person she likes, she will start boldly confessing and pursuing her just like most men pursue girls.
The fifth line is a handsome man, one can even say that he is as handsome as water. Even if a man sees such a man, he will be a little tempted. What's more, he is also a famous swordsman, so naturally there are many women who are attracted to him, but he never looks at them.
He doesn't like them not because those women are not beautiful, but because he doesn't like women very much. In his opinion, women are trouble. Once attached, it is difficult to get rid of them. He has always been a person who likes to be free and unrestrained, so naturally he doesn't want to travel around the world with all his "trouble".
Although he doesn't talk much in the fifth line, he is actually a very easy person to get along with. He has many friends, but no friends of the opposite sex. He can be friends with the beggars on the street, but he is absolutely unwilling to share a car with a stunning beauty. He's not a loner, but he's always been a loner. He didn't think there was anything wrong with this. In his eyes, women were dispensable.
Prince Xiao and the Emperor were born from the same mother, the Empress Dowager, and were true brothers. Although the throne was passed to his younger brother, it did not affect the relationship between the two of them at all. The empress dowager had two sons and one daughter. Prince Xiao was the eldest, followed by the empress, and then the youngest, Princess Qingying.
Princess Qingying is already twenty years old, but not yet married. Although she was born into a noble family, she didn't look like a princess at all. She liked to play with knives and guns all day long, and she loved flying over walls and walls. No one in the palace could restrain her or control her. She always hoped that she would be a heroine, a real female swordsman who could travel the world with a sword, so she learned martial arts from many masters. Because the Empress Dowager strictly prohibited the princess from learning martial arts, most of the masters the palace people found for Princess Qingying were charlatans with no real talent and knowledge, just to perfunctory the princess. However, the princess didn't know the truth. She didn't know who was the real martial arts master, and she still happily learned skills from these masters. He certainly didn't learn martial arts, but he learned many deceptive tricks. Princess Qingying was always proud of this and often performed in front of the palace maids. Every time the Queen Mother, Prince Xiao and others saw her, they couldn't help but scold her.
Because they were from the same mother, Qingying Gong had the best relationship with the emperor and Prince Xiao. King Xiao often comes into contact with people in the world, and there are many martial arts masters around him, so his martial arts skills are naturally good. Princess Qingying envied him very much. She often came to his palace to play and pestered King Xiao to teach her martial arts. Prince Xiao couldn't resist, so he picked a few simple but useless martial arts and taught her a few moves at random.
Every time Princess Qingying succeeds in learning, she always likes to use chicken feathers as her sword and show off everywhere. Anyone with a discerning eye would know at a glance that she was playing tricks on her, but they would not tell the truth and would always praise her from the sidelines.
Because Princess Qingying was too naughty and often sneaked out of the palace to play privately, the Queen Mother was afraid that she would cause trouble and suffer loss outside, so she arranged for three palace maids with good martial arts skills to be around her. These three people are flowers, lotus leaves and grass respectively. When they came to Princess Qingying, the Queen Mother specially trained them so that they could successfully please the princess. Although they are apparently the princess's maids, they are actually people arranged by the queen mother to protect and monitor the princess for safety reasons.
The three palace maids lived up to their expectations, and the princess happened to like people who were good at martial arts. Therefore, it didn't take long for the three of them to become the closest people to Princess Qingying.
Qingying Gong is already quite old, but she is still unmarried. This is because her personality is too manly, and most princes and grandsons are afraid of her.
She herself didn't like those greasy-faced scholar gentlemen, and she longed to find a famous swordsman in the world to be her companion. However, she lives deep in the palace, where can she meet a real martial arts master. Most Ouchi masters also stayed away from her, so he never found the one he liked. Occasionally, he would sneak out of the palace, but he would always be tracked by Hua'er and the other three, and he would be caught again after only a few days of fun.
Princess Qingying also knew that Hua'er and the others were good at martial arts and had begged them many times to teach them martial arts. However, the Queen Mother had already issued a ban, so Hua'er and the others naturally did not dare to disobey. However, they often competed in martial arts. In order to satisfy the princess's vanity, Hua'er and the other three would usually give in to her.
Whenever the princess learns a new trick, she always likes to compete with them. Naturally, Hua'er and the other three were defeated very obediently, which made the princess very happy, and she really thought that she had learned a very powerful trick.
In fact, it's not that Princess Qingying doesn't want to get married in her heart. She just wants to marry a heroic warrior with strong martial arts skills, and her heart is very close to it. Whenever she sees a heroic man with strong martial arts skills, her first reaction is "Is he suitable to be her consort?" He often looks a bit like a nymphomaniac.
Among the people she often comes into contact with, those with strong martial arts skills are naturally Ouchi masters, and among the Ouchi masters, Wang Jinghao, the commander of the Jinyiwei, has the highest martial arts, so Wang Jinghao has always been the person the princess admires the most.
Wang Jinghao is the most trusted person around the emperor, so the princess always likes to come to the emperor and find various excuses to get close to him. Wang Jinghao knew that the princess was a difficult person, so he did not dare to get too close to her and always avoided her. However, doing so made the princess more interested in him.
However, due to their different status, Princess Qingying did not dare to be too presumptuous, and the emperor often stopped her, so Princess Qingying did not have many opportunities to really get close to Wang Jinghao.
Over time, Princess Qingying's interest in Wang Jinghao gradually faded away, and she stopped pursuing him fiercely. However, her interest in martial arts has never diminished, and she often made the palace go crazy because of this.
The Queen Mother actually dotes on this little princess very much, and specially built a residence for her in the palace called Qingyingxuan. However, after Princess Qingying moved into Qingyingxuan, there was the sound of guns and sticks every day, which made the Queen Mother afraid to enter.
The Queen Mother also selected many horses for Princess Qingying, some of which were Chinese and some were military. There were also many who were both civil and military, but none of them were attractive to the princess.
The Queen Mother often had headaches about the princess, but could not think of any way to restrain her.
