Seeing her rosy look, Fang Zheng felt a little guilty in his heart.
Maybe I should have come earlier, but I was afraid that I had too many things to deal with, so I delayed it for a few days.
"Your Highness, let's find a quieter place to talk."
Li Miaohan nodded slightly, then pulled up her skirt and stood up and walked to the back garden.
Fang Zheng walked silently beside her, and neither of them spoke until they sat in a familiar pavilion.
Fang Zheng looked at the maids around him and waved his hands vigorously behind Li Miaohan's back.
The maids retreated a little further in tacit agreement.
Founder bought these people early in the morning!
The palace maids are not worried, after all, they are not outsiders after so many times...
There were only two people left in the pavilion, and the atmosphere was slightly awkward. After all, they had been away for a long time.
Fang Zhengyi stepped forward to take Li Miaohan's hand. Li Miaohan instinctively wanted to shrink back, but was forced to catch it by Fang Zhengyi!
As soon as I put it on, my hands felt rough and not as smooth as before.
Fang Zhengyi rubbed it a few more times and asked shamelessly, "Has Your Highness missed me?"
"No." Li Miaohan lowered his head and said in a low voice.
"Then I'm different! I think about it every day and every night!" Fang Zhengyi said shamelessly, stepping forward to hug her.
Putting his arms around him, Li Miaohan felt his whole body stiffen.
"I won't leave again when I come back this time. I wonder how your highness is doing in the palace? You seem to have lost weight."
Li Miaohan still lowered her head, her pretty face flushed: "I heard you came back a few days ago?"
Are you angry that I didn't see her when I came back?
Fang Zheng thought to himself.
"Your Highness, I haven't been back to the capital for a long time and there are many big things to deal with, so I came a little late. Isn't Your Highness angry?"
Li Miaohan shook her head slightly and shrank in his arms: "I'm not angry. I heard that you were missing and I was very scared..."
Fang Zheng took advantage of the situation and hugged him hard twice, and sighed: "I don't have any official credentials outside. I don't have a suitable identity. Even if I write a letter, I can't deliver it."
"It's a bit embarrassing to say that I am a member of a merchant's family..." Fang Zheng began to tell the folk tales of his own hardships in detail.
Li Miaohan raised her pretty face, her eyes filled with disbelief. It was obviously the first time she heard the news.
"Are you giving me a human being?" After saying a few words, he lowered his head and murmured, "I didn't expect you to suffer so much."
"Yes, the food and accommodation are a bit different, but it's nothing. I'm used to hardship. But when I think of Your Majesty and you, I have hope in my heart again." Fang Zheng puffed out his chest.
When he lowered his head, he saw that Li Miaohan's eyes were blank and she didn't know what she was thinking.
I sighed in my heart.
The atmosphere isn't lively yet. The little girl has a weak face, so she needs to take the initiative. Thinking of this, Fang Zheng held up Li Miaohan's face...
"Ah...uh...uh!"
Li Miaohan was still imagining Fang Zhengyi's tragic experience among the people, but she didn't expect this unexpected scene to happen.
Just when he was about to scream, his mouth was tightly blocked.
After a long time, Fang Zhengyi raised his head and took a deep breath.
Li Miaohan put her pretty flower-like face into Fang Zhengyi's arms and asked angrily: "What are you doing?"
"Huh? I don't know what you're talking about." Fang Zhengyi smiled.
Li Miaohan was so embarrassed that the two of them fell into silence again.
The weather was sunny, with blue sky and white clouds. The two of them sat silently in the pavilion, listening to the rustling of leaves in the garden.
Fang Zheng didn't want to talk at all. He had always enjoyed this warm atmosphere.
Leaning against the pillar, holding the beautiful woman in my arms, feeling the breeze blowing, all worries disappear.
After an unknown amount of time, Li Miaohan stood up and pushed her away gently, and Fang Zheng opened his mouth to ask.
Li Miaohan turned around and gave him a smile, motioning for him to stay where he was, then picked up her skirt and ran away with lotus steps.
Not long after, he came back with something in his arms and brought it to Fang Zhengyi with both hands.
He said a little shyly: "This is for you, I made it myself."
Fang Zheng blinked, took the thing, shook it open and saw that it was a set of clothes.
It's just that the clothes are pure white, and the stitching is extremely rough. If such a thing is put on the market, it will definitely be rejected by others.
If you add a big "prison" character in the center, the quality will immediately improve a lot.
But Fang Zhengyi was very surprised! Apart from Xiao Tao, no one else had ever made clothes for him.
Fang Zheng was about to put it on as if he had found a treasure. Li Miaohan reached out to stop him and whispered:
"Let's try again when we go home, we're outside..."
Fang Zheng thought for a moment, folded his clothes again, and held Li Miaohan in his arms again.
But this time it was much smoother, and her body was not as stiff as before.
Li Miaohan put her arms around his waist and said softly: "I asked someone to inquire about you during your absence, but there has been no news."
"Brother Huang keeps telling me that you are dead...I am scared every day. When I heard that you were coming back, I wanted to find you, but..."
Listening to Li Miaohan's heartfelt words, Fang Zheng felt not only moved but also ashamed.
However, he still asked with a smile: "His Royal Highness, did you really tell you that I was dead?"
"Really! More than once!" Li Miaohan nodded heavily.
"Well, when I leave the palace, I will tear his mouth open!"
Li Miaohan smiled, and her beautiful eyes turned into two crescent moons.
Seeing her happy face, Fang Zhengyi's conscience was severely condemned...
I wanted to tell him that I had proposed to Emperor Jing, but the words came to my lips and I couldn't say them out.
I rehearsed it over and over in my mind, and finally said: "Miaohan, I have a friend...cough!"
"He fell in love with a woman, and that woman also had feelings for him. But... my friend also had three wives and four concubines outside, and the woman didn't know about it. The woman's father loved his daughter extremely, and he knew about this It will definitely kill my friend."
"Ahem...what do you think my friend should do?"
Li Miaohan blinked her beautiful eyes and said, "What else can I do? It's okay if I don't get married. He already has three wives and four concubines outside, so this one is not enough."
"No! You must marry. If you don't marry, it will be as uncomfortable as death!"
"Then marry! Since her father loves his daughter so much, can he really chop up her husband?"
Fang Zheng's face turned red from holding back: "That woman didn't know that my friend was having three wives and four concubines outside, and what would happen if she found out later?"
Li Miaohan looked at Fang Zhengyi in confusion: "Isn't it normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines? Is there any problem with this?"
"Ahem...ahem! But can't a prince-in-law only marry one person?"
Li Miaohan covered her mouth and smiled: "How can the royal family be the same as the common people? Besides, in fact, many things are not what you think. I heard from my sisters that those concubines are secretly raising concubines outside."
"Father also knew it. He was angry but didn't do much to control it. He couldn't control it."
"Why are you asking me this? How old is your friend? He can't solve this problem by himself?"
Fang Zheng swallowed and felt his throat tightening.
He pressed Li Miaohan's shoulders with both hands, pulled her in front of him, and said nervously: "Miaohan, don't worry about my friend for now, I'm just asking."
"I want to tell you...I proposed to marry His Majesty."
For a moment, Li Miaohan felt that her mind went blank and her heart was filled with panic.
The next second, his face turned pale, and he stared at Fang Zheng: "You...you..."
