Everyone's gazes were focused on Yun Qixi, and only Shan Liancheng did not look at him. He quietly stood there with an indifferent expression.
"Qixi, the Western Paradise is very far away, and there are many differences between the local customs and customs. You have to consider this carefully." Shan Jingyan gently reminded her.
Chu Lingyun smiled and looked at Yun Qixi warmly.
"Qixi, you decide your life for yourself! I just want you to be happy. If you are willing to follow me back to Western Paradise, I, Chu Lingyun, swear to you that I will only marry you and protect you alone for the rest of my life. If you are unwilling, I will definitely not blame you. "
There were exclamations from the crowd. The moment Chu Lingyun appeared, many women were no longer calm, and upon hearing him say such words, how could they not be envious?
Yun Qixi met his warm gaze, and her heart was faintly moved.
They sat on the ground beneath the locust tree in Dong Zi's courtyard. Under the influence of half a cup of wine, she had once said that she wanted a monogamous marriage. The man who could marry her could only marry her and love her for his entire life. He actually remembered it!
The former Yun Qi was warm and considerate in her impression of him. His beggar attire could not conceal his handsomeness. And the Chu Lingyun in front of him, had a dignified and imposing air, a jade tree with wind in it, her identity was illustrious. This world's prettiest man was actually going to have a wife with her?
Logically speaking, she should be secretly laughing when she was proposed to by such a high-class, rich and handsome young man. When she was publicly annulled, he appeared in time to try to save her face.
Shouldn't you be overjoyed? But why was her heart so calm? Even if she exposed Yun Qi's true identity, it would only shock her for a split-second.
At this time, Shan Liancheng only left her with a cold and hard profile. He would always wear this cold mask when she especially wanted to see him clearly, and no one would be able to see through him.
At this moment, everyone was waiting for her answer.
She smiled at Chu Lingyun and walked step by step to's side. Standing in front of him, she raised her head and looked into his eyes that were as calm as the waves.
For the first time, she looked at him with such a bright, calm expression, neither amused nor amused.
He was not the one who had kissed her passionately, nor was he the one who had told the story. He was so calm, so terribly calm.
Yun Qixi tiptoed lightly, leaned close to his ear, and whispered, "I've begged you for so long, until finally, my wish is fulfilled. Respected Prince Jin, I thank you. "Just treat it as the kiss fee that I paid you, there's no need to look for it."
Seeing his pupils shrink, a smile that was like the spring breeze blossomed on Yun Qixi's lips. When he finally cast a sidelong glance at her, she had already turned around and said to Shan Ye in a clear voice, "Your majesty, presumably the cool water and soil of the west is really good, so it's possible to raise such a beautiful and gentle man like Prince Xiliang. "I am already filled with yearning for the west cool, and I am willing to follow the Prince's Hall to the west cool."
Her tone was as relaxed as if she were talking about where she was going.
After Chu Lingyun, who had always been pretending to be relaxed, heard what she said, a pleased smile instantly filled her face.
Shan Jingyan was already pale white.
Shan Liancheng's expression was as cold as ice.
As for the others, some of them were naturally eager for her to leave, while the Imperial Concubine was frowning slightly, this result didn't seem to be what she wanted.
After pondering for a long time, Shan Ye finally sighed, and said, "Forget it, we had already said at the beginning that if you were willing to leave with Ling Yun, we would also agree. Even though your mother is no longer in the world, you should at least inform the National Duke about this matter. Furthermore, if you and Ling Yun were to get married, it will no longer be a matter of the two of you.
Chu Lingyun nodded in agreement, "Your majesty is right, I don't want to suffer any grievances. After everyone returns to the Great Swallow city and notifies everyone that I want to use the most solemn etiquette to marry her."
Things had already gotten to this point, and Shan Ye seemed to be helpless, but he could not change anything, and so the matter was set in stone.
Yun Qixi would never have thought that a hunt that had nothing to do with him could be the key to her life.
When night came, Shan Ye ordered his men to pass the message to return to the capital tomorrow.
Yun Qixi didn't understand how much of a relationship her marriage had with the Emperor. She only knew that they had originally planned to stay in the hunting grounds for a few more days, but it seemed that everyone no longer had any intention to hunt. After what happened, the atmosphere in the entire hunting grounds seemed to have changed. Everyone was thinking different things. Some people were secretly happy, while others were heavy.
As night fell, the bonfires outside the tents were still burning. The night wind blew the sparks around. Tonight seemed to be too quiet. Only the patrolling guards could be seen pacing back and forth outside the tent.
After eating dinner, Yun Qixi felt very upset. She could not sit in the tent, so she went out to take a walk and saw a figure slowly walking into the darkness.
She hurried after him, reached out and patted his shoulder. She was already in front of him, looking him up and down with an unfriendly gaze.
"Chu Lingyun, Yun Qi?" She read the words one by one and snorted through her nose, "The Prince Xiliang's Deceit Technique is really not bad, you actually tricked me for such a long time? You really can do it! "
Under the night sky, Chu Lingyun laughed helplessly.
"I say, you're a fine prince, yet you came to a different country to be a beggar. Are you sure you can do whatever you want when you're full?" Yun Qixi said in annoyance.
Chu Lingyun looked at her angry face and laughed: "There are some things that I can't explain in one or two words. Sorry, Qi Xi, I …"
Yun Qixi waved her hand, and looked at him with narrowed eyes, "You better not tell me that you didn't do it on purpose. Although I haven't studied much, I'm not that easily deceived."
"No, that's not what I meant." Chu Lingyun shook her head lightly.
"So what? It's best if your reason is convincing." Yun Qixi was like a judge waiting for his answer with her chin raised high.
Chu Lingyun smiled as she stared at her.
Although he was wearing a beggar's uniform, he could still see that his appearance was not ordinary. However, with this set of cut out clothing, it added a bit of elegance to his appearance. She was truly a beautiful man.
"Speak." Yun Qixi urged him.
Chu Lingyun pursed her lips and smiled. She stared at her and slowly said, "Actually, from the start … I was just trying to trick you. "
"What?"
Yun Qixi stared at him in disbelief. She was slow for a moment before she raised her fist and struck towards Su Yun.
Chu Lingyun did not dodge, but laughed and watched Yun Qixi's interesting expression change, as if she had gone mad.
At this moment, it was as if they had returned to the time when Chu Lingyun was still Yun Qi.
After striking twice, it was neither painful nor itchy. Yun Qixi retracted her hand, and said angrily: "You're quite calm, quite honest, Your Highness, there are so many people in the world, why are you lying to me? "Am I easy to fool?"
Chu Lingyun shook her head, "No."
"What's that?" Yun Qixi asked fiercely.
"It's because Young Master wants to catch a big fish in the long line." A voice interrupted.
Yun Qixi looked over, and Xiao Yu suddenly appeared beside them.
Chu Lingyun patted Xiao Yu's head and scolded her lightly, "You're talking too much." Although she reprimanded her, the smile on her face didn't fade.
Xiao Yu scratched her head and looked at Chu Lingyun in grievance, "Young master, didn't you say that you would do it in the first place?"
"Catch big fish with long strings?" Yun Qixi rubbed her chin, then walked around Chu Lingyun in a circle, laughing sinisterly.
"Your Royal Highness, you seem to be quite focused on strategy huh? So what you did for me was tactics? "
Chu Lingyun quickly explained, "No, actually, I really wanted to tell you the truth later on, but I was afraid that you would not believe me and that you would be angry."
"About that, let me prove to you that young master didn't intentionally disguise himself as a beggar to deceive you. Rather, it should be said that you just happened to meet a young master disguised as a beggar." Xiao Yu said softly. After she finished speaking, she sneaked a glance at Chu Lingyun.
Yun Qixi snorted, "Why aren't you afraid that I'll get angry today? Why did you dare to say it out loud again? "
Chu Lingyun straightened his expression and said, "Because I can't bear to see you being wronged like this. I just thought, even if you are angry at me, I will still stand up.
Indeed, today, he had appeared like a timely rain, supporting her by her waist so that she wouldn't become everyone's joke. Logically speaking, he should be grateful to her.
"Forget it. Seeing as you have something to do today, I won't bother with you for now. But I will remember this debt. Sooner or later, I will cheat you back. You just wait." Yun Qixi intentionally did not laugh.
"I'll wait. You have a lifetime." His smile was warm, as if the night breeze was also warm.
Yun Qixi's expression froze, she did not know what to say.
She had been talking to him in their old way, but he was reminding her that they were not just friends anymore.
"What's wrong? Do you have any other concerns? " Sensing that her expression was wrong, Chu Lingyun asked gently.
Yun Qixi shook her head and answered honestly, "No, I just feel that my old bro, who could sit on the floor and drink and talk, has suddenly become a prince and his fiance. "Accept your incompetence."
When she said the word bro, Chu Lingyun's eyes dimmed for a moment. Then, he smiled bitterly and shook her head lightly, caressing the hair on her forehead and said, "It won't change, if you like it, I can also accompany you to sit on the ground and drink, talking about heaven and earth. Qixi, don't change, you'll always have to be like before. You can cry if you want to, laugh if you want to, drink if you want to. I'll accompany you.
Yun Qixi could feel the warmth of his finger brushing against her forehead, as though it was as warm as his eyes.
She avoided his gaze, looked back into the night sky, and said faintly, "I'm very curious about the Western Coldness. What kind of place is it, a mountain or a hill? Is it the desert or the plain? "
"Perhaps you will like it there. If you don't like it, it doesn't matter either. If you like the mountains, I will accompany you in seclusion in the mountain forests. If you like the plains, I will accompany you in galloping." "Wherever you want to go, I'll accompany you."
Chu Lingyun's voice sounded from behind her. She could even feel his scorching gaze, but she did not turn back.
Suddenly, a person staggered out from a nearby tent.
"Qixi, the Western Paradise is very far away, and there are many differences between the local customs and customs. You have to consider this carefully." Shan Jingyan gently reminded her.
Chu Lingyun smiled and looked at Yun Qixi warmly.
"Qixi, you decide your life for yourself! I just want you to be happy. If you are willing to follow me back to Western Paradise, I, Chu Lingyun, swear to you that I will only marry you and protect you alone for the rest of my life. If you are unwilling, I will definitely not blame you. "
