Everything starts from Menghualu

Chapter 505: The Drunken King and the Two Dragons

"Oh? What conditions? Why don't you tell me?" Nihuang asked

"My condition is very simple. You don't have to see him before we get married." Qiu Yuan said directly
"Huh? Qiu Yuan, what do you mean by this? You don't trust me? Who do you think I am?" Nihuang's face changed instantly after hearing this.

"Princess, calm down. Look at you, you are still so anxious. Of course I know your character. You will never go back on your word once you have promised something."

"I've liked you for so many years, how could I not know? I'm not worried about you, I'm worried about him. I can't guarantee that he will just watch you marry me and do nothing."

"If he has any inappropriate thoughts, I don't have the ability to flatter him, so, Princess, just tell me whether you agree or not." Qiu Yuan said directly
"You, I think you are overthinking it. Brother Lin Shu won't do anything, but since you are so worried, I will promise you." Ni Huang said
"Okay, okay, Princess, just agree to it, just agree to it." Qiu Yuan said with a smile

"Don't be too happy yet. I agreed to your request, but what about mine?" Ni Huang said
"Don't worry, Princess. Since you have agreed, I will not regret it. Isn't it just to help Mei Changsu? I will help him, and I will find a way to help him later." Qiu Yuan said
"Well, now that we have said everything we need to say, you can go first." Nihuang said and was about to stand up.

"No, no, no, don't rush me to leave. Today is a day worth celebrating, why are you in such a hurry to leave? You have to have a drink first, at least."

"Don't worry, we can invite not only the two of us, but also the young prince." Qiu Yuan said with a smile

|"You, well, drink it, but don't embarrass yourself, okay?" Ni Huang said
"Don't worry, Princess. I can drink quite well and I won't embarrass myself." Qiu Yuan said
"Okay, I'll have someone prepare the food and drinks. Do you have any dietary restrictions?" Ni Huang said.
"No, no, Princess, just follow your own wishes. Since we are going to live together in the future, we naturally need to adapt to some things in advance." Qiu Yuan said with a smile

"Okay, then I'll let them do as usual. By the way, since you and I already have this relationship now, don't call me princess from now on. Just call me Nihuang." After saying this, Nihuang left.

Qiu Yuan was left with a smile on his face, staring at her departing back.

Naturally, this news also reached Mei Changsu's ears. At this time, Li Gang just sat there obediently, not saying a word.

Mei Changsu put his hands close to the brazier and just stayed there, doing nothing. At this moment, Mei Changsu felt that the room was particularly cold today. This coldness was not only physical, but also mental.

He had thought before that he could let it go and not care, but when that day really came, he overestimated himself and was not as magnanimous as he thought.

He was very sad at this time. He even wanted to rush to the palace more than once to confess his identity to Nihuang, but in the end he held back.

Because he knew that he didn't have the qualifications. Nihuang had been delayed by him for so many years, and now she finally found a home, he couldn't disturb her anymore.

Besides, his identity was not to be seen in public. Even if he lost it, what would they do? They still couldn't be together, and he didn't have many years left to live. So why bother?
Although he had let it go in his heart, he was still very sad, so he put his hands directly close to the brazier. The burning and stinging sensation reminded him that he still had a great revenge to take.

So he recovered quickly and didn't continue to be sad.

Apart from Mei Changsu, the others would naturally not be idle. At this moment, the prince was discussing this matter with Xie Yu.

"What on earth is Ni Huang thinking? I don't know what's so good about Qiu Yuan? She rejected so many people before, why did she agree this time?"

"I thought this time would be just the same as before, so I wasn't in a hurry before. But now, we are caught off guard and Xiao Jinghuan got there first!" the prince said in a deep voice.
"Your Highness, calm down, Your Highness, calm down. Although Prince Yu got the upper hand this time, didn't Prince Yu's previous actions help us to test His Majesty's thoughts?"

"The last time Prince Yu went to see Qiu Yuan, he took a big risk, but now it's different. Since Prince Yu didn't say anything last time he went to see His Majesty, I think His Majesty won't say anything if you go."

"So I think your Highness doesn't need to worry, just go directly." Xie Yu said
"Well, what you said makes sense. That's it. I will prepare a thank-you gift tomorrow and go to the Wenyuan Marquis's mansion to meet the deputy commander of the imperial guards." The prince said
After hearing this, Xie Yu naturally didn't say anything. After all, he didn't expect that the princess would agree to marry this time, so he was caught off guard for a moment.

Compared with the Crown Prince, Prince Yu was in a much better mood.

"Prajna, this is really unexpected. I never thought that the princess would agree to this marriage. This is really a pleasant surprise."

"We really made the right bet this time. This will give the Crown Prince a headache." Prince Yu said
"Congratulations, Your Highness. Congratulations, Your Highness. We have seized the initiative this time, but Your Highness, you must not be careless. I think we should strike while the iron is hot." Prajna said with a smile.

"Hmm? What do you mean? Let me go to the Wenyuan Marquis's mansion again? Okay, then let's go again in a few days. I also need to think about what conditions I should give him." Prince Yu said
"Your Highness, I think you should go tomorrow. After all, after the marriage is decided, I think the Crown Prince will be restless." Prajna reminded
"Yes, yes, we should go tomorrow. Yes, let's go tomorrow." Prince Yu said directly
After hearing this, Prajna smiled and said nothing, and the matter was settled.

At this moment, Qiu Yuan didn't know all this. He was busy toasting with Mu Qing.

"Brother, let me tell you, practicing martial arts is actually not that difficult, it's just a little tiring. If you really want to practice hard, then come to me and I'll teach you."

"Don't worry, I've seen your figure, you're a good material for martial arts training, you just didn't pay attention to it before, now you've just become an adult, there's still time." Qiu Yuan said with sleepy eyes

"Really, brother-in-law? That's great. Then my martial arts training will all depend on you. I don't need to talk about how powerful you are, but at least you have to stand firm in the army." Mu Qing also said drunkenly.
Looking at the two drunken men in front of her, Nihuang smiled helplessly, but did not stop them. Now it seemed that marrying the man in front of her would not be a bad idea.

That night, Qiu Yuan naturally did not leave the palace, but stayed overnight. The next morning, Qiu Yuan woke up from his sleep and saw the surrounding environment, knowing that it was definitely not his home. He then remembered that he stayed in the palace to drink yesterday. Thinking of the bold words he had boasted yesterday, his face flushed.

Fortunately, no outsiders saw it yesterday, so he decided to save face. After he dressed and washed up, he walked out of the room.

"Oh, you woke up quickly. Now that you're awake, come over and have some soup with me. You must be feeling uncomfortable after drinking so much yesterday." Ni Huang said with a smile

Seeing Nihuang, Qiu Yuan felt somewhat embarrassed, but Nihuang obviously did not give him time to think about it, and walked back directly.

Seeing this, Qiu Yuan naturally followed Nihuang and soon arrived at the flower hall.

"Sit down. I thought you should be able to get up in the morning, so I've been waiting for you. Don't waste time. I'm hungry." Ni Huang said directly.
After hearing this, Qiu Yuan naturally sat down and started to eat obediently. During the meal, he naturally would not say anything extra and ask about Mu Qing's affairs. After all, considering his physical condition, he had just gotten up.

Mu Qing obviously hadn't gotten up yet, so he naturally wouldn't ask.

"Princess, oh no, Nihuang, why did you let me stay last night? If outsiders knew about this, it would not be good for you." Qiu Yuan said
"Haha, is there anyone in the whole capital who doesn't know about our relationship? What's wrong with you living in the mansion? What else can they say?"

"Okay, don't worry about it. I don't care about these things. Why do you care about what they do?" Ni Huang said
"Haha, okay, I get it. I just don't want you to get hurt. I know it sounds ridiculous."

"But this is what I think. You are a martial arts expert and command a large army. No one in this world dares to bully you. But you will be my wife soon, so I feel a little sorry for you." Qiu Yuan said
"Haha, okay, I know, I know what you're thinking. In fact, Yu Jin told me about it the last time I went to Ningguo Marquis's Mansion, so you don't have to worry." Nihuang said
"Ah? You know everything? This Yu Jin is really talkative!" Qiu Yuan said in surprise.

"Okay, what's wrong? How could the great Commander Qiu feel embarrassed? Not only did he tell me these things, but also the letters you wrote to him over the years, the ones that asked him to inquire about me."

"I have read all of that. Otherwise, do you think I would choose to marry you just because of your threats?" Ni Huang said
"Haha, I, Nihuang, don't bother with me. Actually, I just like you too much, so I did that."

"I know you have him in your heart all the time. I'm worried that you will... That's why..." Qiu Yuan said
"Alright, alright, didn't we already talk about Brother Lin Shu yesterday? Since we've already talked about it, let's not talk about it now."

"Anyway, since I've agreed to marry you, I won't go back on my word, so don't worry about it all the time. I don't like you being like that." Ni Huang said.
"Okay, I understand. Don't worry, I won't do this again in the future. Well, the meal is over, I'll leave first. As for our marriage, I will go to see His Majesty." Qiu Yuan said directly
After saying this, Qiu Yuan stood up and walked out. Nihuang looked at his departing back, just smiled and said nothing, but from her expression, it can be seen that she was very happy at this moment.

After Qiu Yuan came out of the palace, he went straight back to his own house. As soon as he came back, he found his second brother standing anxiously in front of the door.

"Oh my big brother, you are finally back. If you don't come back, I will go to the palace to find you. Please come with me, father can't bear it any longer." Qiu Ze said hurriedly.
"Hmm? Second brother, what happened? I saw the carriage from the East Palace. Is it the prince? How could father not be able to handle it?" Qiu Yuan said
"Brother, if it was just the Crown Prince, father would certainly be able to handle it, but now it's not just the Crown Prince who's here, Prince Yu is here too." Qiu Ze said directly.
"Huh? What did you say? Prince Yu is here too? Why are they here together?" Qiu Yuan asked in doubt
"My dear brother, is this the right time to talk about this? You'd better come with me. These two are at loggerheads, and I can't handle my father." Qiu Ze said
After hearing this, Qiu Yuan knew that now was not the time to talk about these things, so he followed his second brother to the front hall. As soon as he arrived at the front hall, he felt the tense atmosphere.

Qiu Yuan calmed himself down, then walked in and bowed, saying, "Your Highness, I am Qiu Yuan. I greet you two princes."

"Oh, Commander Qiu is back. Please stop being polite. Please stop being polite." The prince said enthusiastically.

After hearing this, Prince Yu naturally did not want to be outdone. He nodded at Qiu Yuan, and then Qiu Yuan sat down.

What they said afterwards was just idle chatter, and did not involve any useful information. Qiu Yuan naturally followed their words and cooperated bit by bit.

Time passed slowly like this. Half an hour later, the prince suddenly said, "Commander Qiu, I really benefited a lot today. It seems that I will have to come and communicate with you more often in the future."

"Haha, Your Highness the Crown Prince, it is my honor that you can come. I will definitely make the bed ready for you." Qiu Yuan said
"Your Highness, what you said makes sense. Commander Qiu is indeed very knowledgeable. I have to come and bother him more often. I hope Commander Qiu will not despise me." Prince Yu also said with a smile

After hearing this, Qiu Yuan naturally followed suit and dealt with it again. Then the two of them stood up and said goodbye together as they had agreed, and the Qiu family father and son naturally had to see them off.

Before leaving the Qiu family and getting on the carriage, the prince said, "Jing Huan, I think that instead of coming here and wasting your time, you should go back and think carefully about what Duke Qing should do."

"Haha, I won't bother you with Duke Qing's affairs. As for here? If you can come, then I can come too, right?" Prince Yu said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, the prince's face changed and he got on the carriage directly. Seeing this, Prince Yu remained expressionless and waited until the carriage left before he got on the horse and left.

The prince, sitting in the carriage, became angrier and angrier as he thought about it, so much so that he flew into a rage after returning to the East Palace.

"This is ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous. What on earth does Xiao Jinghuan want to do? He insisted on following me when I left today. This is really ridiculous!" The prince cursed angrily.

Your Highness, please calm down. Your Highness, please calm down. Actually, what happened today is not all bad. The reason why I want to go with you today is that.

"Doesn't this just show that he himself has no confidence? Will Qiu Yuan turn to him?" Xie Yu said
