On a day of low mood, Shen Que felt exhausted.
Li Luansong followed her carriage directly to Prince Jin's Mansion.
How could he leave her alone when she was like this? How dangerous it was.
Shen Que couldn't eat and sat alone in a dull mood. Li Luansong didn't eat either. He sat cross-legged next to her and put hot tea into her hand. A warm feeling instantly flowed into his body. Shen Que raised his head and looked at him. Only then did he remember to ask, "Your Highness, you can go back now. I'll be fine."
"I'll stay with you for a while," he said. "I know you're in a mess right now, and I'm worried."
He was considerate, Shen Zhen didn't say a word, and didn't chase him away anymore.
The moon is high in the sky, and its curved shape is like a small boat, hanging on the branches in the yard, like a bright light.
“When I was little, I loved sitting in the yard with my dad, watching the moon and counting the stars.”
Shen Que spoke, his voice muffled.
"The moon has been full for several times, but my father hasn't come back yet."
Li Luansong said: "Don't worry about our father's matter. I have already ordered Wu Yu to send someone to look for him. You can just wait for the news with peace of mind."
She looked up at him, her eyes on her bright face were as gentle as water, and the moonlight reflected on his face, so soft and charming.
"Don't say thank you. If you pity me, just get me some food. I'm hungry."
He started to suffer miserably again, and Shen Que quickly ordered the kitchen to start cooking.
"Our family has been in business for generations. The richer we are, the more we want status and respect. My father also wanted to marry the daughter of a wealthy family. That's when I had my mother-in-law."
She began to talk about the past at home.
"When I was young, my father and my mother had a very good relationship. They never had any quarrels or red faces. My mother was a gentle person, with a quiet temperament. She didn't fight or talk too much. She put my father first in everything. "
Li Luansong said: "That is quite different from your stepmother."
"Perhaps it's because my stepmother's family is relatively high-ranking. If her family hadn't fallen into decline, she would never have been willing to marry my father as a sequel."
Li Luansong asked: "How did your mother-in-law die?"
Shen Que said that he died of illness, "I was still in my hometown of Heqing, which is a small town in the south. An epidemic broke out that year, and my mother was infected when she was seeing a doctor. Later, she continued to see doctors and prescribe medicine regardless of her own health. As a result, he fell ill and left within two days.”
She is another kind-hearted but strong-willed woman, Li Luansong sighed, but her temperament is very much like that of her mother-in-law.
"Then, our father married Ms. Liu. She bullied you, right?"
He is like our father, and Shen Que doesn't bother to argue with him about this.
Shen Que said: "I can take care of myself, so that doesn't matter, but seeing that she takes good care of my father, everything else doesn't matter."
Li Luansong nodded and said: "People are good and can be bullied. Today I asked about our father. She said that our father left in a hurry after receiving a letter. She had not received any news from him and was worried. , do you believe this?"
"I don't know, this has happened before." Shen Que said, "Does Your Highness think she is lying?"
"Didn't you say that something is wrong at home? All of my father's things are missing, even your yard has been emptied, and there is also that 'master'. Who is that person? There are too many doubts about all this."
Li Luansong said: "This Mr. Liu must be hiding something, but don't worry, I will send someone to find out."
So, there are so many benefits to having him around.
He is well-informed, has a methodical approach to his work, and has too many people who can be used under his command. They are all experts in detecting the enemy's situation. They are really overqualified when used to detect such trivial matters in the inner house.
Shen Que felt very grateful and wanted to thank him. Unexpectedly, the man raised his upper body and came over. He looked down at her from a slightly higher level and said with curved eyebrows:
"Yuanyu, when we find our father and figure everything out, let's get married."
Why did it suddenly come to this again? Before Shen Que could react, the handsome face in front of him approached, and the warm and soft touch fell on his mouth, which was sweet, soft and tender.
This was the bravest Li Luansong had ever done in his life. He couldn't hold it back anymore, so he mustered up the courage to stamp his lips slowly and steadily.
"From now on, you are mine." His voice was hoarse and trembling, and the warm breaths between his noses mingled with each other. At that moment, Shen Que's heart seemed to have stopped beating, and his brain could not think.
All this happened so unexpectedly that before she could recover, he was already sitting upright, looking at her with leisurely eyes.
It's like an illusion, short and beautiful.
The air suddenly became stagnant, and Shen Ze stared at him blankly.
Li Luansong's heart was filled with excitement, and his heartbeat was pounding, as if his heart was about to jump out of his mouth at the next moment, but he still had to keep his face steady and look battle-hardened.
"Your Highness..."
"Don't worry, I will find our father as soon as possible." He brought the topic to this topic again, "When the time comes, my father, the Queen, and the Queen will come to propose marriage in person."
The emperor and empress came to propose marriage? The formation is a bit big.
Shen Que stared, then he stretched out his hand to pinch her cheek and said, "Let's follow the folk ways and etiquette. I want you to marry me gracefully."
He was minding his own business planning a bright future, but the palace maid happened to come to arrange the meal. Everything was messy and scattered, and Shen Que also hurriedly returned to his senses and sat down.
The two sat across from each other, and Li Luansong helped her pour wine.
"Actually, my father's idea of marrying you into an official family is not wrong, but his obsession is too deep." Li Luansong said, "This character is more important than family status. Some people are not good matches. You can't force yourself because of your status. Know people." You know what you know but don’t know what you know, and it’s not until you get married and have children that you realize something is wrong.”
"So, you still have to find someone who agrees with your heart. Only if you are compatible and evenly matched can you live a good life, just like our father and mother, just like... the two of us."
He could always get around to it in just a few words, but Shen Zhen had no choice but to let him speak.
After looking at the moon outside, it was getting late. After having had enough wine and food, he stood up and said, "Your Highness, it's time to go back."
Li Luansong's face turned red again due to the amount of alcohol he drank. He grabbed the corners of the table with both hands and said with blurred eyes: "I feel dizzy, I feel like vomiting, and I can't walk."
Is this... staying here again?
The night was thick, and the crescent moon seemed brighter and brighter. Shen was helpless. It was true that he was pretending to be stupid, and it was true that he was not a good drinker. It was so late that he couldn't be kicked out, so he had to ask someone to put him in the guest room.
However, after such a toss, the knot in my heart was not so heavy anymore. I suddenly thought of the kiss just now, my heart throbbed, and my cheeks became warm.
The moonlight was bright, illuminating the front of the court gently and brightly.
Zeelan took May and sat on the steps with the evening breeze blowing on his face. The temperature was just right, cool and comfortable.
Zelan said: "Thanks to your highness, our wife will definitely not leave today, and neither will I. I will talk to you."
Wu Yuyue didn't dare to look at her, so she lowered her head and picked at her nails.
"You don't have to be shy. I'm just like my wife, very straightforward. May, I like you, do you like me too?"
The little lady stared at him with burning eyes.
Wu Yue was completely confused. He said in a panic but firmly: "No, I can't. I want to spend the rest of my life with our Highness."
"Hey, you already want to live your life." Zeelan covered her mouth and smiled, "I'm just afraid that your highness doesn't want to live with you."
May was at a loss, her face turned red from holding back.
Zelan said: "I just like you. It doesn't matter if you don't like me now. I will make you like me."
It is true that like a master, like a servant, her confident and self-talking manner is exactly the same as that of Li Luansong.
After saying that, she suddenly held up Wuyue's face, looked at it, and murmured: "Little Wuyue, you are so beautiful."
Therefore, Ze Lanhe should be Li Luansong's maid, and her secretive spirit is exactly the same.
*
Under the same bright moon, there were people in the palace drinking wine under the moonlight and talking about their children, so happy that they couldn't sleep.
Since the queen met her future daughter-in-law, she was smiling from ear to ear all day long and didn't take any troubles to heart.
Emperor Xiaochun had been so angry with his concubine these days that he was too lazy to pay attention to her, so he frequently stayed in the queen's palace. The queen just took the opportunity to talk to him about Li Luansong's marriage.
"I've seen him before. Not to mention how nice he is. His little face is pretty and full of beauty. At first glance, he is a smart and blessed person."
"And that figure." The queen swept her hands over her sides, gestured, and said, "It's quite similar to my figure back then."
"As for the words, deeds, rules and upbringing, tsk tsk, there's nothing to say about it, it's impeccable."
Emperor Xiaochun smiled and said, "Is it really that good?"
The queen said that was not the case, "Your Majesty must see it with your own eyes. You will be amazed."
Emperor Xiaochun thought for a moment and said, "I've seen her before. Chun Lie, sir, have you forgotten? She stood up to speak for Song'er in public. Her courage is really impressive."
The Queen said: "Then where are we? Your Majesty still doesn't know. It's Song'er's blessing that our family can get into this marriage. It's our fault."
Emperor Xiaochun sneered: "Is the queen crazy too? We are an imperial family. I have never heard of the emperor's family being so high-ranking. What's the matter? Isn't her father the Jade Emperor?"
The queen said she didn't know anything, "What's so rare about the Jade Emperor's daughter? The daughter of the God of Wealth is just a treasure. Let me ask you, how much silver do you have in your treasury? How many usable yellow and white things do you have on hand? ?”
Emperor Xiaochun was stunned: "The national treasury is not very full. Isn't that because tax reductions and exemptions in recent years have allowed the people to live a good life for a few years? It is a time for Daye to recuperate, so it is natural that the treasury is short of money."
The queen said, "Don't take off your pants and cover your face. If you don't have money, just say you have no money. If you are poor, just say poor. I tell you the truth, this daughter-in-law, not to mention too many, I have estimated that the financial resources of ten treasury , it’s still easy.”
Emperor Xiaochun spat out a mouthful of wine: "What? What did the queen say?"
The queen was so proud that she started to count with him on her fingers one by one the properties in the young lady's name and the business she had done over the years.
Emperor Xiaochun was completely stunned: ...he is really the God of Wealth!
The queen said: "Of course I am not telling your majesty this because I am interested in other people's money. However, do you think a person who can earn this kind of wealth is a idiot or a fool? No, he must be the best among people, right? "
Emperor Xiaochun was completely convinced and nodded repeatedly: "She is an admirable woman."
The queen saw that the time was ripe and said, "No, Madam Shen has said something that touches my heart. This woman must be on par with the husband. Each has her own strengths and pursuits. She must not be the same. Those dodder flowers and tangerines may look good, but they are useless."
"Look." She pointed her hand in the direction of Yikun Palace, "As soon as something goes wrong, everything is in chaos."
Emperor Xiaochun naturally heard that she was talking about the imperial concubine, and said helplessly: "Yaya is here again. Didn't I explain it to you? Isn't this for the sake of the general who treated them leniently to their mother and son? Think about it, If the general quits and Song'er is not allowed to go to the battlefield, I also feel sorry for the child, don't you feel sorry for him?"
The queen shook her head and expressed her disapproval, "Your Majesty, you are too kind to a woman. It is your duty for a man to go into battle to kill the enemy and protect his family and country. Who calls him our son? This is the burden and responsibility on his shoulders, Your Majesty Isn’t this how we came here back then? Why can’t it be done when it’s my son’s turn?”
The emperor said: "I went there first after I had Song'er, and you are still with me."
The queen said that this was easy to do, "Hurry up and let them get married and have children. No, if your majesty is anxious to have children, it is not impossible. When he has a grandson, Li Luansong can do whatever he should do. We, the son of the Li family, must not do anything just because he protects the calf." Subject to others.”
The queen was very domineering, and what she said made Emperor Xiaochun unable to argue.
"Besides, I see that the general is just like his dodder sister. He is not a fuel-efficient lamp either. Your Majesty, please be careful with him..."
Before she could finish her words, something happened to Cuscuta over there.
The little eunuch crawled on the ground to report: "Something has happened to your Majesty. Your Highness, the lady in Prince Xian's Mansion who was pregnant with your little Highness jumped off the building and died. The noble concubine is crying like crazy. Your Majesty, please go and have a look."
