"How could it be you?" Xuanyuan Qing finally found her voice after a long time, and couldn't help exclaiming.
He could be Dongfang Shuo? This, how is this possible?
The person she has always liked is Dongfang Shuo?
"It was me in the first place." Dongfang Shuo was stunned for a moment, seeing the astonishment in her expression, he felt a little more puzzled. Could it be that she didn't know that it was him that day?
Did he give her the jade pendant representing his identity?
"This, how is this possible?" Xuanyuan Qing still couldn't believe it, a flash flashed in her mind, and asked anxiously again, "Sister-in-law Qi asked you to come?"
Dongfang Shuo was slightly stunned, but this time he remembered that Xuanyuan Ye asked him to come, and at this moment he finally understood what Xuanyuan Ye meant, so he said softly, "Well, it was your seventh brother and sister-in-law who asked me to come."
In the low voice, there was a little gratitude.
Xuanyuan Qing's body froze slightly, her face sank slightly, and she said slowly, "It's true."
Sister-in-Law must have wanted to match her with Dongfang Shuo, so Dongfang Shuo came to see her with this mask.
"What?" Dongfang Shuo didn't understand her thoughts, and when he heard her words, he was even more puzzled.
"Is the prince really Bu Jingyu?" She clearly remembered that Dongfang Shuo was sitting next to her at the auction meeting, and Bu Jingyu was standing on the stage. How could they be the same person?
"This..." Dongfang Shuo paused slightly, thinking about how to explain it to her.
"Not at all, right?" Seeing his hesitation, Xuanyuan Qing said in a deep voice again, but there was a bit more pain in her voice.
"Yes, I am indeed not Bu Jingyu, I just wore his mask." Facing her aggressive questioning, Dongfang Shuo could only answer truthfully.
Xuanyuan Qing sneered slightly at the corner of her lips, and said bitterly, "Then why did you lie to me, what I want is not a mask."
There was a strange sadness in her voice, she knew that Seventh Sister-in-law was doing it for her own good, but she didn't want such feelings.
"I'm sorry, I really didn't mean it." Dongfang Shuo thought that she couldn't help saying apologetically about what she said that night.
"Don't tell me you're sorry." Xuanyuan Qing shook her head slightly, quickly interrupted his words, closed her eyes slightly, hiding the pain in her eyes, and murmured again, "I'm going back."
While speaking, he stepped lightly and walked forward.
Just when he passed by his side, his body seemed to shake slightly, and he almost fell down.
Dongfang Shuo wanted to help her, but she dodged quickly and subconsciously avoided.
Dongfang Shuo's outstretched hand froze stiffly in mid-air, and there was more distress and pain in the eyes looking at her.
"I know the way back, the crown prince doesn't have to send it off." Xuanyuan Qing lowered her eyes slightly, avoiding him, and her low voice carried an indifference of being thousands of miles away.
Dongfang Shuo saw her slowly walking past him, his body was obviously a little stiff, his eyes were looking straight at her, the corners of his lips moved slightly, he wanted to say something, but for a while, he didn't know what to say, He could only watch her helplessly as he walked past him.
Slowly walked forward, farther and farther away from him, farther and farther away.
Dongfang Shuo's heart couldn't help but pick up. He knew that this opportunity was specially arranged for him by Meng Fuying. If he missed this opportunity, it would be even more impossible for him and Qing'er in the future.
It's just that the person she likes in her heart is not him after all, and she still resents him all the time? What else could he do?
"Huh? Why did Qing'er leave?" Meng Fuying, who was in the distance, saw Xuanyuan Qing walking towards the lake by herself, frowned slightly, and said with a puzzled expression.
Xuanyuanye's face was also slightly gloomy. He was a martial artist. Although they were a little far away from Dongfang Shuo at the moment, he still faintly heard their conversation.
Never thought that Qing'er would have such a misunderstanding.
They ignored this point.
Seeing Xuanyuan Qing going further and further away, he was also secretly anxious, but there was nothing he could do.
"How could Qing'er leave like this? Ye, we..." Meng Fuying became even more anxious, turning her eyes slightly to look at Xuanyuan Ye, seeking his meaning.
"Right now, Qing'er has even misunderstood us, so Dongfang Shuo can only rely on herself now. If we show up, I'm afraid it will make things worse." Xuanyuan Ye interrupted her in a low voice.
Meng Fuying was slightly stunned, but immediately understood what Xuanyuan Ye meant, but also understood that at this moment, they really couldn't show up, but seeing Dongfang Shuo standing there motionless, she became even more anxious.
"Dongfang Shuo is a dead man, I can't even explain it clearly." Meng Fuying was so anxious that she couldn't help cursing in a low voice, "If he can't explain clearly today, it will be even more difficult to explain later."
Hearing her angry voice, Xuanyuan Ye couldn't help shaking his head secretly, never expecting that she would be so rough.
In the courtyard above the lake, Dongfang Shuo looked straight at Xuanyuan Qing's back, and as she walked further and further away, his heart slowly sank.
His hands tightened slightly, his eyes opened suddenly, his heart became ruthless, his body suddenly flashed, and he quickly flashed in front of Xuanyuan Qing, and hugged Xuanyuan Qing straight.
Xuanyuan Qing raised her eyes slightly, and when she looked at him, she was a little astonished, and said in a low voice, "Prince..."
"Qing'er, no matter what, today I want to speak out what is in my heart." Although Dongfang Shuo was still a little cautious at the moment, his face was a little more determined, and he didn't want to just miss it.
Even if he knows that she loves other men in his heart, he is willing to marry her. As long as she agrees to marry him, he believes that in the days to come, she will definitely feel his goodness and fall in love with him. .
"I know that you have another man in your heart." Dongfang Shuo did not give Xuanyuan Qing a chance to speak, he took a deep breath, and continued again, "I also know that for him, you would rather die than refuse marriage, But it's been three years, and within three years, he hasn't given you the happiness you deserve, so why don't you wait any longer?"
Dongfang Shuo's words just hit Xuanyuan Qing's most painful heart, her body shook slightly, and the pain in her eyes became more and more obvious, she couldn't help saying with a little annoyance, "Don't worry about my business. "
"Yes, I don't need to take care of your affairs, but I don't want to see you suffer. If you live a happy life today, I will definitely not bother you. I will sincerely bless you, but now, you are not happy. I'm not happy, so I can't ignore it." Dongfang Shuo said hastily again.
Every word, every sentence is from his heart.
There was a slight pause in her speech, and she took another deep breath before adding solemnly, "Because, I love you."
A few short words, but no one knows how much courage he used to say them.
Xuanyuan Qing's body became more and more rigid, and her eyes suddenly opened wide, looking straight at her, completely shocked.
She never expected that Dongfang Shuo would confess his love to her like this.
"Prince, I..." Xuanyuan Qing's red lips moved slightly, just about to say something.
"Listen to me." Dongfang Shuo interrupted her again, and continued, "Three years ago that night, I treated you that way. I was indeed too much, but at that time, I was not completely just To tease you, but because, from the first time I saw you, I had a strange impulse in my heart, and I couldn't help but want to tease you."
Dongfang Shuo's words paused slightly again, a slight smile slowly appeared on the corners of his lips, recalling what happened that night, there was still a bit of secret joy in his heart.
Xuanyuan Qing's eyes widened even more. That night three years ago? He said, it should be that person at night, right?
She could see that he didn't look like he was lying now. Could it be that the man three years ago was really him?
"So, when I hug you and kiss you, I don't mean to belittle you, but I can't help it. Therefore, before I leave, I say that I will come to marry you, and I will give you the jade pendant that represents my identity. I originally thought that you would agree, but I didn't expect..."
Dongfang Shuo continued, but when he said this, his voice was a bit more heavy.
But Xuanyuan Qing was completely, completely shocked, he said, he kissed her?
She didn't tell Sister-in-law Qi about this matter, so if Dongfang Shuo wasn't the man that night, she wouldn't have known about it at all.
Him, was he really that man that night?
He said, that jade pendant represents his identity? She suddenly understood that originally, he thought she would know his identity from the jade pendant, so he came to propose marriage not long after, but unfortunately, she didn't know.
It's really a trick of God. The person she had been rejecting was the one she loved deeply in her heart.
"I did wear this mask from someone else, but I didn't intend to lie to you on purpose. That night, I went to the palace to check some things, so I didn't expect to meet you, so..." Dongfang Shuo said slightly He clenched the mask in his hand and said apologetically.
Xuanyuan Qing stared at him blankly, her heart was too complicated at the moment, she didn't know what to say for a while, so she could only look at him straightly.
Dongfang Shuo met her bewildered eyes, gasped slightly, summoned up his courage again, and said word by word, "Qing'er, since that man hasn't come to marry you yet, can you give me your hand?" I have a chance, and give myself a chance, marry me, let me love you well."
After Dongfang Shuo said this, he looked at her with obvious tension in his eyes, and his body became more and more tense, looking straight at her, waiting for her answer.
Xuanyuan Qing regained consciousness slightly, and finally understood that Dongfang Shuo was indeed the man that night.
I couldn't help feeling a little bit happy, but also a little bit annoyed, why couldn't he tell her clearly, and afterward, just left like that, can't he explain it? Let her misunderstand for so long.
This time, if it weren't for Sister-in-law Seven, the misunderstanding between her and him might never be clear.
"Do you really want to marry me?" Xuanyuan Qing's eyes flickered slightly, and she asked softly. The voice at this moment was a little more relaxed, but also a little mischievous.
"Yes." Dongfang Shuo said quickly without the slightest hesitation.
"Even if you know, there is always a man I love deeply in my heart?" Xuanyuan Qing twitched her lips slightly when she heard his affirmative words, but then asked again.
This time, Dongfang Shuo was slightly taken aback, and then replied again, "Yes."
There was no hesitation in that deep voice.
Even if she loves another man in her heart now, one day he will make her fall in love with him.
She still has this confidence, as long as she is willing to accept him.
"Okay, then go and propose marriage to my father." Xuanyuan Qing smiled again. It seems that he really likes her, and even thinks that she loves another man in her heart. Under such circumstances, he even wanted to marry her.
Now that she knows that he is the man she has always loved deeply, she will naturally not refuse again.
She is not the kind of woman who pretends to be reserved. On the contrary, she has always had her own persistence, or because she was too stubborn, she missed three years. ,
Now, she naturally doesn't want to miss it anymore.
However, right now, she doesn't want to tell Dongfang Shuo that the one she loves is actually him.
Who told him not to explain clearly earlier, made her wait for three years.
"Really? Qing'er, you really agreed to marry me?" Dongfang Shuo almost jumped up when he heard her words. Meng Fuying heard it all.
"These two enemies can finally be together." Meng Fuying turned her eyes slightly to Xuanyuan Ye and said with joy.
"We, we can go back too." Xuanyuan Ye's eyes also showed a bit of relief, and he held her hand slightly tighter, approaching her ear, and said in a low voice.
Then he glanced at the two people in the distance again, and then slowly left with his arms in his arms.
"Do you think this kind of thing can be fake?" Xuanyuan Qing said with slightly dissatisfied intentionally, her red lips slightly curled up. She suddenly felt that Dongfang Shuo's appearance at the moment was cute like a child.
She always thought that Dongfang Shuo was an extremely calm and serious person, and it was precisely because Dongfang Shuo in front of her always looked reserved, so she never thought that Dongfang Shuo was him that night. ,.
"No. No. Of course not." Dongfang Shuo shouted again and again, looking into her eyes, also full of chuckles, the corners of his lips were slightly pulled, and he said again a little domineeringly, "This time, but you personally agreed So, you have no chance to go back on your word, if you refuse again, I will tie you up, and I will tie you back."
Since Xuanyuan Ye can do that, why can't he, or, when Xuanyuan Qing rejected him back then, he should give Xuanyuan Ye a look, persist to the end, and never give up no matter what.
However, at that time, she refused with death, and he really didn't dare to take the risk.
"After marrying me, I won't let you have the opportunity to think about other men, and I will make you completely throw that man out of the sky."
Dongfang Shuo said again in a low voice, even if that man appeared suddenly now, he would definitely not be at ease.
Xuanyuan Qing froze for a moment, feeling slightly amused in her heart.
As for the man she loves in her heart, she decided not to tell him about it for the time being.
"Qing'er, I will send you back now, and I will propose marriage to the emperor tomorrow." Dongfang Shuo saw that it was getting late, and although he was extremely reluctant, he had to send Xuanyuan Qing back first.
Xuanyuan Qing was stunned for a moment, but she didn't expect that Dongfang Shuo would send her back so soon. However, she felt a little relief in her heart. This also showed that Dongfang Shuo respected her. Compared with three years ago, Dongfang Shuo treated her with respect. The feelings are more clear, and I understand respect.
It is no longer as wanton as it was three years ago.
"Okay." Xuanyuan Qing responded in a low voice.
Dongfang Shuo hesitated for a moment, then took her into his arms, hugged her, and quickly flew towards the palace.
Xuanyuan Qingyi was in his arms, because the speed was too fast, she had no choice but to get close to his arms, feel the warmth of his body, feel his somewhat rapid heartbeat, and feel more secure in her heart .
This man is really the man she has been waiting for, and today, it finally arrived.
"Qing'er, I will propose marriage to the emperor tomorrow." After sending Xuanyuan Qing back to the palace, Dongfang Shuo said again, as if he was afraid that Xuanyuan Qing would refuse again.
Xuanyuan Qing was secretly amused in her heart, thinking for a while on purpose, but didn't answer right away.
Dongfang Shuo was slightly stunned, and hurriedly shouted, "Qing'er, you agreed."
In the low voice, there was more nervousness and anxiety.
"Okay." Xuanyuan Qing smiled slightly, and agreed softly, his reaction must be sensitive.
"Qing'er. Wait for me." Dongfang Shuo secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said solemnly again, if it wasn't too late, he would definitely propose marriage to the emperor now.
The next day, early in the morning, Dongfang Shuo arrived at King Yi's mansion.
Blocked Xuanyuanye and Meng Fuying who were about to go out.
"Qing'er has agreed to marry me." Dongfang Shuo said excitedly when he saw them.
Uh, Meng Fuying was slightly taken aback. Does this man need to show off so much? They already knew.
"Congratulations." However, Meng Fuying still nodded slightly, cooperating with him.
"Let's go, I'm going to enter the palace now to propose marriage to the emperor." Dongfang Shuo ignored Meng Fuying's congratulations, but quickly pulled Xuanyuan Ye up and said.
"The emperor still has an early court, what do you do, we have to wait until the emperor's early court." Xuanyuan Ye was slightly stunned, and explained softly, no matter how anxious Dongfang Shuo was, he should wait for the early court.
"No, I can't wait any longer, I'll enter the palace now." Dongfang Shuo said hurriedly, still holding onto Xuanyuan Ye.
There was a slight pause in her words, her eyes slightly turned to Meng Fuying, she hesitated, and then said in a low voice, "Last time, you said that Qing'er already had someone she liked in her heart, I was just afraid that that man would suddenly I'm afraid that Qing'er will change her mind."
Meng Fuying couldn't help but froze, opened her eyes slightly, and looked at him suspiciously.
Isn't he the man in Xuanyuan Qing's heart?
Is he still worried about that man's appearance?
Unless, he knows the avatar technique?
There was a slight flash in his mind, and he suddenly realized something, and couldn't help being secretly stunned. It seems that Dongfang Shuo still doesn't know that the man in Xuanyuan Qing's heart is himself.
She really didn't know why Dongfang Shuo, who was so smart, became so dull in this matter.
Hey, since Xuanyuan Qing didn't tell him, she naturally wouldn't talk too much.
Xuanyuan Ye's eyes also flickered slightly, and the corners of his lips seemed to twitch slightly, and then he said to Dongfang Shuo, "Okay, let's go."
There is still some time before the morning court. He can take Dongfang Shuo to tell his father about this matter first, and then his father can directly issue an order in the morning court.
Since Dongfang Shuo was in such a hurry, he naturally wanted to help him.
"Okay, thank you." Dongfang Shuo breathed a sigh of relief this time, and responded again and again, and then quickly entered the palace with Xuanyuan Ye.
The emperor also just got up at this moment, and is being dressed by the eunuchs.
"Your Majesty, Your Highness begs to see you." The **** walked slightly in front of the Emperor and said in a low voice.
"En?" The emperor frowned slightly, his face darkened, and he said anxiously, "Let him in quickly."
But secretly guessing in his heart, if something happened, Ye'er came to see him in such a hurry.
When he saw Dongfang Shuo who came in with Xuanyuan Ye, he felt even more puzzled.
"Your Majesty, I'm here to propose marriage today." Before the Emperor could speak, Dongfang Shuo hurried forward, forgetting even the most basic etiquette.
"Propose marriage, what kind of marriage?" The emperor was even more at a loss as to what it meant at such an early morning.
"I want to marry Qing'er." Dongfang Shuo didn't bother at all, and said straight to the point.
"You want to marry Qing'er, but Qing'er she..." The emperor was slightly startled, he was also very satisfied with Dongfang Shuo, but Qing'er disagreed, so there was nothing he could do.
"Your Majesty, this time, it was Qing'er who agreed." Dongfang Shuo quickly interrupted the Emperor's words and said hastily.
"Really?" The emperor froze for a moment, and couldn't help but exclaimed in a low voice.
Although I don't know much about it, since Dongfang Shuo said that Qing'er agreed, there should be no problem, and he is naturally happy to see it come true.
"Father, it was indeed Qing'er who agreed." Xuanyuan Ye also helped.
"Okay, okay, since Qing'er agreed, I will naturally not stop it." There was a slight smile on the emperor's face.
"Then please, Your Majesty, I will make an order at court this morning. I will send people back to Beiyuan Country to prepare quickly, and I will come to marry you in ten days." Hearing the Emperor's agreement, Dongfang Shuo's face became even more joyful. , but said hastily again.
"This, this is too fast, isn't it?" The emperor was astonished, this marriage is not a trivial matter, how could it be so hasty? "In these ten days, I'm afraid it's too late to prepare."
"Your Majesty, I have already made preparations three years ago." Dongfang Shuo's eyes flickered slightly, and he said solemnly.
In the past three years, he has never given up.
The emperor was startled, and when he looked into Dongfang Shuo's eyes, he was also a little more moved. It was Qing'er's blessing that Qing'er was able to marry such an infatuated man, so he slightly raised his voice and said, "Okay, it's up to you .”
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Dongfang Shuo said with a look of emotion and joy, thinking that Zhang Kai could marry her, and there was obvious anticipation in his eyes.
Next, the emperor issued an order in the early court, and the whole country celebrated.
Because the time was too short, the whole palace was busy. Even the queen mother was busy preparing for Qing'er. After all, the princess's marriage is not a trivial matter.
Qing'er stayed in her palace courtyard, making her own dowry, she must have a faint smile on her face, and the maids on the side who looked at her were all joyful.
In the past three years, she has never seen the princess smile so happily. It seems that the princess is really willing to marry the prince of Beiyuan Kingdom this time.
"Master, the Beiyuan country welcoming team may arrive in the capital later." In the prince's mansion, a guard stood upright and said respectfully.
Xuanyuan Che's eyes narrowed slightly, in the coldness, with bloodthirsty ruthlessness, a sneer appeared on the corner of his lips, and he said softly, "Okay, very good."
After a slight pause, he said again, "Have you found out about her that I asked you to investigate?"
Now, the most important thing to him is her.
"Master, this subordinate has checked all her past affairs. Maybe she was really pretending to be stupid before, but she didn't find anything special." The man trembled slightly, and then whispered again.
"I only listen to what is useful." Xuanyuan Che raised his eyes slightly, and looked straight at him, saying each word coldly.
That body trembled more and more. After thinking for a moment, he said again, "My subordinates also found out that she seemed to be infertile. I heard that Feng Ling went to King Yi's mansion to check on her. But, later, When the oldest and most famous imperial doctor Hu examined her, he didn't seem to find anything."
Xuanyuan Che's eyes flashed suddenly, and a strange light flashed quickly, and the sneer on the corner of his lips became more obvious, and he said coldly again, "Really?"
He held Huaizi's hand, tightened it slightly, and his slightly narrowed eyes became more ruthless, "Go and help Ben Gong to invite Doctor Hu."
If this incident is true, then God really helped him.
At the same time, Meng Fuying looked at a table of his favorite food in front of him, and he felt a little nauseous and wanted to vomit.
