Duan Hua told her that the road to wealth in the harem was not easy, but now he really agreed with her words, and she had no way to go.
Qin Luan stood at the door of Qin Mansion for a long time before leaving. Step by step, she walked on the street. The setting sun cast a long shadow on her. She thought that she had a family, but she seemed to have no roots. Duckweed, no one to rely on.
She didn't know who to blame. Obviously, this result was not bad for the daughter of the guilty minister, and she could be considered lucky.
However, every path she wanted to take and the people she wanted were blocked, and none of them could be achieved.
She likes Zhou Gu, but she can't like him. She wanted to follow Su Rong to Nanchu, but she didn't want to. She wanted to be the prince's concubine or concubine, but he refused. Xie Lin was not what she wanted, but he was brought to her. There were many things that she didn't want, but they were brought to her.
If life is a cup of bitter wine, since the Qin family failed, she will suffer from the inside out, and everything she wants will be hopeless.
Walking on the streets in Beijing, every street was familiar, but there was also a sense of strangeness. She then remembered that since the Qin family was defeated, she had been imprisoned in the East Palace. She occasionally came out and had no intention of enjoying the street scenery. It's been a long time since I felt as relaxed as before.
There were cars and horses passing by on the street, and pedestrians passed by her. Because of Qin Luan's beauty, many people would look back at her. Seeing that she was wearing a palace badge on her waist, they quickly stepped aside and gave her Give Way.
Qin Luan seemed unaware and walked one street after another.
Until a luxurious carriage stopped in front of her, and a familiar voice sounded, "Ms. Qin?"
Qin Luan turned her head suddenly and saw the familiar carriage and Duan Hua's familiar face. She looked at Duan Hua blankly.
Duan Hua looked her up and down, "It's so late, why is Miss Qin wandering around on the street?"
Qin Luan didn't buy anything in his hand. He seemed to be wandering around and looking in a daze.
Qin Luan composed himself and said hello calmly, "Princess Princess."
Duan Hua leaned against the car wall and tilted his head to look at her, "Isn't the East Palace busy today? Why is Miss Qin so free?"
Qin Luan didn't answer, looked at Duan Hua, and suddenly asked: "Can the princess have dinner? If not, how about I be the host?"
Duan Hua was surprised, "You want to invite me? Why?"
Qin Luan said: "Congratulations, Princess."
Duan Hua suddenly said, "Oh, you said this, it can indeed be regarded as a congratulation to you, but there is no price to pay for eating your meal, right? Otherwise, I would not dare to eat it easily."
Qin Luan shook his head, "No need. I will leave for Nanchu tomorrow. Princess, don't worry. We may not see each other again in the future. This is considered as saying goodbye to the princess."
Duan Hua opened his eyes wide, "Are you going to Nanchu?"
"Um."
Duanhua suddenly became interested, "Okay, then you get in the car and we find a place to eat."
Duan Hua took Qin Luan to the guest house and asked for a private room. After serving the wine and food, the boy closed the door and retreated.
Duan Hua looked Qin Luan up and down and was very surprised, "Why do you want to go to Nanchu all of a sudden?"
Qin Luan said directly: "My brother sent a letter asking that His Royal Highness allow me to leave the East Palace."
Duan Hua blinked and looked at her, "I thought you..."
"Do you think I won't leave the East Palace?" Qin Luan smiled, "I also thought I would never leave the East Palace again."
She took a breath and said, "There is no place for me in the East Palace. I just want to be a female official. I don't want to be a female official for the rest of my life. I don't have the blessing of a princess."
Duan Hua muttered in a low voice and pointed out unceremoniously, "Qin Luan, what you said is a bit sour. I remember you were a very arrogant person before. If it were you before, you would not bother to speak like this."
Qin Luan's face stiffened, and he felt bitter in his heart, "You also said that was me before, now and then."
Duan Hua said "Huh", stared at her, and guessed: "You went to Nanchu, didn't you do it voluntarily? Did the prince's cousin kick you out?"
She didn't believe that even she could see Qin Luan's thoughts. A smart person like the prince's cousin would not be able to see it.
"Yes." Qin Luan pulled away the fig leaf and seemed not to care about Duan Hua laughing at her, "Today, His Highness the Crown Prince asked me to choose three paths, and I chose to go to Nanchu."
Duan Hua suddenly became curious, "Which three roads are there?"
Qin Luan said nothing.
Duan Hua immediately said: "If you don't tell me, if I am particularly curious, I can ask the prince's cousin. He will definitely tell me such trivial matters to satisfy my curiosity."
Qin Luan suddenly sneered, "Princess, do you know where you are most arrogant? You do whatever you want and do whatever you want, but there will always be someone who will satisfy your willfulness."
"No." Duan Hua glared at her, "Have you forgotten that I have been pestering Zhou Gu for many years? He doesn't like me."
"Yes." Qin Luan was silent.
"Hey, are you going to tell me? If you don't tell me, you might as well not say it in the first place. It arouses my curiosity but you don't tell me. You're so annoying." Duan Hua scolded her.
Qin Luan paused and said expressionlessly the three paths the prince proposed to her.
After Duanhua listened, none of them were left in the East Palace. She suddenly felt sweet in her heart, so she looked at Qin Luan happily and said, "Hey, it's useless for you to envy me. My life is indeed very good. Even I My parents said so."
Qin Luan felt that this person was so annoying that people wanted to block her mouth.
She asked: "Aren't you being detained at the princess's residence to learn the rules?"
"Yes, grandma gave me a day off today and praised me for my good study." Duanhua didn't come out for air for half a month, but he was so suffocated that he walked around the street all day. At night, he still I don’t really want to go back home.
"The Crown Princess has a lot to learn, does the princess think she is qualified?" Qin Luan looked at Duan Hua. Many people did not expect that the Crown Princess would fall on her. When someone mentioned this before, she only frowned. The disliked princess, in just one year, was no longer criticized, she was granted a marriage by imperial decree, and she became the crown princess. She knows how many people in the capital have broken their hearts because of regrets. If they had known earlier, they should have made friends with her. Those who offended her and laughed at her in the past would have broken their teeth and swallowed blood behind their backs, for fear that she would fall into the trap in the future. In my hand, it's too late to fawn over now.
"I don't know if I'm qualified or not, but the prince's cousin said he won't be too harsh on me and will help me." Duanhua was in a very good mood and said deliberately: "Qin Luan, you Are you particularly envious of me?"
Qin Luan nodded, with a dull expression on his face, "Yes, I envy you."
Duan Hua smiled proudly and poured her a glass of fruit wine with his own hands. "Don't be too envious. Who is my prince's cousin? There are a lot of women in the East Palace that others gave to her over the years. He has not used any of them. It's not me. It's not your turn to be the Crown Princess, so don't blame me, let alone torture yourself, just be open-minded."
What he said really made people itch, but Qin Luan knew that it was indeed the truth.
She picked up the wine glass and clinked it with Duan Hua, "The princess is right. In the future, I will remember the princess's advice and stop torturing myself."
Her road is still far away and will not stop at the East Palace.
