Chapter 2

"Replying to the Emperor, this Little Lord accidentally broke into the Imperial Garden, this little one.""Little Lord?" Only then did Yu Muzhen notice the wisp of purple around Shouwei.She saw that the woman was dressed in a plain dress that was slightly unsimple and elegant.
The white threads embroidered on the light purple fabric were blooming orchids.
They moved along with the clothes, extending from the skirt to her waist.
Seeing how thin and frail she was, it gave her a cold temperament.
A blackish-purple wide belt was lightly tied around her waist, showing her figure, giving others a sense of elegance and elegance.Half of the black hair was tied into a bun, and only one hairpin was used to decorate Qing Hanguang.
There were even white flowers on his head, and there was a kind of sadness all over his body.Qinglan bowed.
"Qinglan greets His Majesty, His Majesty Wan An." Qingming's voice sounded.Only then did Yu Muzhen carefully examine the person kneeling on the ground.
He muttered, "It's you.
Let me take a look."It had been a long time since he had seen her.
Back then, he had been willing to stay at the Warm Pavilion for Bao Qinglan's life and avoid all the competitions.
It had been fifteen years, and he hadn't even had a chance to see her die.
She should have hated him, and felt a sudden sense of guilt in her heart.Yu Muzhen was lost in thought.
In the past, he had only seen Qinglan through the curtains with the help of the candlelight.
However, he hadn't expected her to be able to match her mother's beauty.
He seemed to have seen a pure shadow on Qinglan's body."I remember that you were born in early summer, so I named you Qinglan.
Fifteen years passed in the blink of an eye.
Your mother...""It was peaceful when my mother left." Qinglan lowered his head, but no one knew what was in his eyes.
Her heart ached, and she blamed herself for her death.
Everything had come to an end because of her.Yu Muzhen personally helped her up and led her to the pavilion, where he dismissed the surrounding palace members.
He knew that he owed this child too much and couldn't make up for it.
"Are you alright?"Qinglan nodded slightly.
This sudden fatherly love left her at a loss."Then today.""Your Majesty, please uphold justice for the young master!" Yuemin suddenly knelt down and pleaded.
Qinglan looked at her strangely."Hmm?
Making the decision?
What is it?"Qinglan knew what Yuemin wanted to do, so he stood in her way and didn't allow her to continue speaking.
"Qinglan knows that this is not appropriate.
His mother died seven years ago, and he is also filial to others.
His status is low, and he can't share the emperor's worries.
He was afraid that the emperor would make things difficult for him, so he asked the empress for an imperial edict to marry Weiwei!""Young Miss, what's wrong with you?
It's clearly not like this.
The Empress forced you to marry her." Zi Zhu was shocked.
She didn't understand why her master didn't take this opportunity to ask the Emperor to change his mind."Marry away!" Yu Muzhen looked at Qinglan helplessly and sighed softly.
"I have my own arrangements for this matter, so you don't have to get married." He could roughly guess what was going on.
How could the ruler of a country be so cowardly that he couldn't even protect his own daughter, let alone the woman he loved?"If the emperor hadn't protected Qinglan for so many years, he wouldn't have been able to remain safe until now." Qinglan had grown up in the palace.
He knew that with the empress' abilities, it would have been easy for them to kill the two of them.
Only one person in the palace would have been able to ensure their safety."But I still can't protect your mother.
I've arranged for Qinghong to study with you.
In order to protect her, with Qinghong protecting you, I'll be able to rest easy.
I didn't expect that I would end up harming you all in the end.
Actually, you don't have to go and get married.""Your Majesty, both princesses and young ladies in the imperial harem can be counted on one hand.
Even if it isn't this time, next time, the Empress will be in charge and the position of Crown Prince will definitely be preserved.
How long can Your Majesty protect me?
Instead of marrying someone else, why not marry to Weiyang and do one last thing for my father?""Qinglan's words carried a hint of pleading.
She wanted to leave this heartbroken place."It seems that you have already made up your mind.
You are just as stubborn as your mother.
Whatever, it's fine if you leave, but leave this place of trouble.
But you have to go to another place of trouble.
As you go, you have to be very careful.
I don't want you to dote on the harem alone.
I just hope that you will be safe.""..."Qinglan looked at Yu Muzhen in astonishment.
He called himself his father, and his strong heart instantly collapsed.
Tears that had accumulated for a long time poured down his face, just like a child who didn't know what to do.Yu Muzhen smiled and hugged her in his arms.
He gently comforted her and enjoyed this rare moment of joy.This scene happened to fall into the eyes of the empress who had just arrived, and resentment immediately surged.
She flung away Andou, who was serving her, and said, "What do you think?
This person is already in front of His Majesty, and you're still idle here.
You're just a bunch of rice buckets."Andou immediately knelt down to beg for forgiveness, "Your Highness, please spare me.
I really don't know why this slut came to the Emperor's place.
I beg Your Ladyship to be wise!"The empress looked at them with laughter and laughter.
It was as if she had seen Yu Muzhen's pure and pure aura back then, and there was nowhere to vent his resentment.
However, she smiled and walked into the Blue Lake Pavilion.
"I originally wanted to bring Qinglan to see His Majesty, but I didn't expect that Qinglan had already met His Majesty, so I didn't need to worry about some trivial matters.""...""Empress, you're here!" There was no emotion in her words, but disgust.Qing Lan stood up.
"Empress Wan An, Qing Lan accidentally broke into the Blue Lake and was stopped by the guards to alert the Emperor.
Only then did she come to pay her respects to the Emperor." This explanation seemed to be covered up in the Empress's eyes."Look, Qinglan, you make it sound like I'll blame her.
No matter what you say, you're still the emperor's daughter.
It's only natural for my daughter to blame you for seeing that my father is righteous.
Get up!" As he spoke, he helped Qinglan up, almost as though he were talking to his own child.
"I'm doing this for your own good.
Now that you're here, I won't let you go back and forth again."Did His Majesty know that Qinglan had taken the initiative to invite Yan Yuan to marry Wei Yang?"Yu Muzhen snorted coldly.
"It's getting late, Qinglan.
You should head back and rest first.
I'll go back later and have a meal with you." It was an honor to have a meal together.
She had never experienced it before.When the empress heard this, she was immediately enraged.
She kicked the person beside her and said in a stern voice, "What are you still standing there for?
Aren't you sending Princess Qinglan back?""Qinglan thanks the emperor and the empress.
Qinglan will take his leave."An Du hurriedly helped Qinglan up and dragged him back.
Even though Qinglan was reluctant, he still had to leave.Yu Muzhen watched Qinglan leave, but couldn't say anything else.
Although he was the emperor in the Feathered Country, he had no choice but to rely on the imperial family's military might.
The empress's military power was lesser, while the empress's family's authority was greater.
As the emperor himself, he was merely a puppet.
He wholeheartedly wanted to support Qinglan, but he couldn't.Looking at the empress' expression, he was somewhat enraged.
"You're finally satisfied, aren't you?
That's why you're forced to die.
You can't wait to send your daughter away.
Don't forget that your older brother has been defeated several times.
Your uncle has been embezzled by the money of disaster, and your father has formed a private party.
I haven't even settled the score with you.
Don't think that I have made Hong'er the Crown Prince, so I'm prepared for everything."One day, the crown prince's position would be lost."After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and left.An Du escorted Qinglan back to the warm pavilion.
As soon as he entered the room, he pushed her to the ground.
Fortunately, Yue Min quickly supported her.
"Eunuch An, our young master is a princess, after all.
You mustn't go too far."Andou snapped, "Princess?
Hahaha, you're calling me Miss Qinglan.
Don't think that just because you're married on behalf of our Princess Qingluan, your status is different.
You're just a nobody in the palace.
Oh, that's not right.
You're not even comparable to the lowest ranked maids in the palace.
At the very least, they still have a roster.Oh my god, tsk tsk, don't try to confuse His Majesty again and let him make the decision for you.The young one still advised the young miss.
Over the next few days, the young miss had been staying in the warm pavilion and didn't need to go anywhere until the day you got married to Wei Yang and the two of you.
If you dare to play any tricks again, you'd better watch your skin carefully."...""Eunuch An, be careful of whose skin this is!" A deep and magnetic voice came from outside the room, and everyone was overjoyed."This servant pays respects to the Crown Prince.
Your Highness is blessed.""Myriad Blessings?
How could I dare?
Eunuch An has already mounted on my Lord's head, how can I be so lucky?""Crown Prince, you have misunderstood.
I am just...""It's just that, is it a misunderstanding?
I saw it with my own eyes and heard it with my own ears.
It seems like you didn't remember my warning last time." Then, he helped Qinglan up and asked with concern, "How is it?
Are you hurt anywhere?""Your Highness, I'm just acting on the empress' orders.
It's best if you don't associate yourself with Miss Qinglan.
If the empress finds out about this, blame me.""Shut up.
You don't need to get involved in this crown prince's business.
Get lost.
Why are you still here?" Qinghong snapped.After An Daoyun left, Qinglan pushed him away.
"What are you doing here?
I told you not to come to the warming pavilion again." His expression was a little dazed, and he was even a little annoyed by his touch, and even stranger.Qinghong wasn't happy with the sudden warmth from his body.
He patiently persuaded, "I told you that you don't need to pay attention to these dog-like things that rely on others.
Knowing that you just returned from your mother's side, father asked me to come and take a look so that you can wait for news.""There's no need.
I've decided to get married to the ruler of the country.
You don't have to worry about it anymore." Qinglan turned around and tried his best to hold back his tears."You, what's wrong with you?
Are you not willing to let me stay?
You said you wouldn't leave me."Qinglan was stunned.
He didn't dare to look at Qinghong.
He pretended to be calm and composed.
"Are you going to stay here and wait for death?
Marrying a ruler of a nation means that I will definitely be favored by my looks and looks.
Instead of being frightened and tortured here, I might as well leave.""Even our past friendship, have you abandoned it like this?
Could it be that the promise you made is all fake?
You clearly said that you would be with me.""Friendship, promise?
Hmph, you're still the future ruler.
Can't you see that you're just a shield for me to deal with the Empress?
Look at just now, as long as you're here, you won't dare to act recklessly.
With you here, I will have the chance to learn those things.
With you here, I will be able to learn them.""Shut up, you're not.
You're not someone like that.
Tell me, Qinglan, you're not like this.
It's mother who forced you, isn't it?" Qinghong stopped Qinglan and shook her slender body.
Yuemin and Zizhu didn't know what was going on, so they didn't dare to say anything.Qinglan shook his hand away, the coldness in his eyes.
"Now that things have come to this, there's no need for me to hide anything.
I've been using you all along."Qinghong stared at Qinglan in shock.
Then, he suddenly sneered and muttered to himself, "Hehehe, it turns out that all of this was just for me.
It turns out that what you said was just an act.
That's why you couldn't wait to leave this place, leave me, and leave this place.
Hahaha, it turns out that you were just using it."Juyu left in a daze.Looking at the crown prince's departing silhouette, Qinglan's heart slashed like a knife.
He muttered to himself, "If I'm not heartless, and if I don't leave, I'll only make things difficult for you.
Don't tell me that you're going against the empress and me.
You're her son, and my older brother.
We were originally in the wrong." Qinglan leaned against the wall and returned to his room without a word, leaving Yuemin and Zizhu alone in the courtyard.Inside the room, Qinglan looked at the ancient zither that Qinghong had given him.
There was nothing he could do about it, no matter how unwilling he was.
This time, the empress had ordered for her to get married far away.
Even if she didn't, there would be a next time.
Next time, she would be a princess, and she would never be able to escape the shackles of fate.The melodious sound of the zither rang out, accompanied by the singing of love and reluctance.Open your eyes and look at the vastness of the river.The night was cold, yet he still rewarded himself.Alluring Fragrance Plum Blossom's lovey-dovey...Chunqiu was in a daze.He opened his hand and touched his clear face.Love is crazy, but it is hidden between his eyebrowsI wish I'd never part with Luo Ying and fall in love!Flower dance bloomed like a dreamFlowers sing like songs and dances, 'World'
