From a son-in-law to a favorite of the empress

Chapter 463

I don't know when the wind stopped.

The moonlight outside the window has penetrated into the house.

Zhou Yuan pulled Princess Qinshui out of the study, picked up two coats, and climbed onto the roof in a few steps.

The two sat on the roof, leaning against each other, wearing coats, looking at the stars and the bright moon.

Princess Qinshui's eyes were very clear, with tears on her face. Facing the moonlight, she seemed to be glowing.

"It's like a dream."

Her voice was full of emotion and joy.

"Zhou Yuan, do you know? I never thought that I would fall in love with a man, even to the point of losing my soul and even not caring about my life."

She leaned on Zhou Yuan's shoulder, looked at the stars in the sky, and said softly: "I was very naughty when I was a child. I don't know why I was so active, so lively, and so energetic. Maybe children are always like that, either very timid or very unruly."

"But I am a girl. There are so many etiquettes and rules in the royal family. How can a girl be lively and naughty?"

"So my father doesn't like me, and my brothers and concubines don't like me either. I have become the most annoying child in everyone's mouth."

"My mother is always punished because of this."

She had tears in her eyes again, telling her past.

Zhou Yuan held her hand and listened quietly.

Princess Qinshui continued, "My mother was sick after all, and she passed away after all. Until the moment of her death, she kept telling me to be obedient, well-behaved, quiet, and read more."

"Oh! I really obeyed, I really did that, but it's a pity that prejudices in people's hearts are not easy to eliminate."

"Those royal brothers did stupid things, or broke precious porcelain bottles, or fell into the water, or broke their legs while climbing trees...but they all blamed me."

"I broke the bottle, I pushed him into the water, I instigated him to climb the tree...everything became my fault, and my father believed it without a doubt. Who made me so naughty before? Who would not doubt me?"

At this point, her voice was filled with tears, and tears also poured out.

She trembled and said, "I don't want to be well-behaved anymore, I don't want to be obedient anymore, I just want to be the person they hate the most."

"Let me study? I want to practice Taoism! Let me be quiet, I want to beat and scold them!"

"I no longer like men, I even hate them!"

"Until I was seventeen, I met Aunt Qiu in the harem."

"She is actually only three or four years older than me, but she has been in the palace for five years. She has only seen my father a few times, and they are very far away."

"She lives a hard and lonely life, but she always likes me, takes care of me, and gives me all the good things."

"She said that I brought her fun in life."

Princess Qinshui murmured "She was the first person who liked me, and I liked her too. I liked to hug her and kiss her... I fell in love with her."

"That period was the happiest time since I was born."

"But we were discovered after all. Father was furious and punished Aunt Qiu not to go out for half a year."

"We can't see each other anymore. It's worse than death."

"Aunt Miao felt sorry for me and gave me a gold medal..."

Speaking of this, Princess Qinshui looked at Zhou Yuan and whispered, "That's the current imperial sister. At that time, she was already the Imperial Concubine Miao, in charge of the entire harem."

"I entered the harem and met Aunt Qiu. I wanted to take her away, but she didn't want to, saying that it would hurt I was so stubborn that I didn't care about that. At that time, I had mastered the Dao. Aunt Qiu couldn't resist me at all. I carried her out of the palace. Zhou Yuan whispered, "Were you discovered later?" Princess Qinshui nodded and said, "Well... Father wanted to execute Aunt Qiu. Fortunately, the emperor asked for mercy, and Father finally gave in, but the condition was that I must marry someone." Zhou Yuan said, "So you married Yang Changguan." Princess Qinshui sneered, "It's a pity that he is a waste. He dared not even raise his head when he saw me. I beat him up on the night of the wedding. He cried for his parents and dared not mention the matter of having sex again." Zhou Yuan said, "After that, He has always liked men. "

"That's what he deserves!"

Princess Qinshui said: "The Yang family took advantage of me. Seeing that I was not liked by my father, they took this opportunity to climb up the social ladder and asked for marriage."

"How could I give them a good face!"

Speaking of this, Princess Qinshui sighed and said: "The cold palace is even more lonely. Aunt Qiu finally didn't make it and died of illness."

"I died too. I lived like a dead person. Only Sister Yunxian cared about me because she was suffering like me."

"We just kept each other warm and encouraged each other and lived on."

"Until... I met you!"Princess Qinshui looked at Zhou Yuan, tears blurring her eyes.

She said softly: "Zhou Yuan, you saved me, you let me know that there are still some beautiful things in this world, and there are still many things I want to do."

Zhou Yuan took her into his arms and sighed: "The past is over, people always have to look forward."

Her body was soft and plump, she seemed to be made of water, and the word "Qinshui" really suited her.

Princess Qinshui kissed him on the face emotionally, squinting her eyes and said: "I can finally kiss you, I finally belong to you, it seems like a dream, but I know it's true."

"Zhou Yuan, I'm so happy, you are a gift from God to me."

Alas, this is a set of love words, I will learn from you in the future, maybe I can get a few more beauties.

Zhou Yuan wiped the tears from her face, then pinched her delicate face and smiled: "So you should cooperate with Guan Lu more in Guangdong, strive to end these days of running around as soon as possible, and return to Shenjing to enjoy life."

Princess Qinshui nodded and said: "Well, I can do it, you just do your big things, Guangdong is left to me."

"If anyone wants to do bad things, I will fight him to the death!"

After saying that, she lowered her head a little embarrassedly. She still cares about her image and rarely swears in front of Zhou Yuan.

Therefore, she thought of the first time she met Zhou Yuan, she scolded the old man Wu Qingrong in the Minister of War's Mansion. Oh, it was really embarrassing.

"It's getting light."

Zhou Yuan sighed and said, "It's not going to be easy today!"

Princess Qinshui said, "Exchange of prisoners? Isn't this a matter that has been agreed upon?"

Zhou Yuan said, "Yes, it is a matter that has been agreed upon, but don't others know what we are doing?"

"Today will be very lively, and it's time for McPherson to put forward his terms."

He looked into the distance and said, "Perhaps by this time, the Governor of Fujian and Guangdong, Qi Changshi, has arrived, and they want to share this pie."

Princess Qinshui snorted heavily and couldn't help but say, " When Xiangzhou was in trouble, they were cowards. Now that you have driven them away, they are here to take credit. How shameless!

Zhou Yuan said: "Not only to take credit, but also to negotiate. How can we protect the people along the coast? We can't let McPherson keep robbing and killing people like this."

"Only after the treaty is signed can the matter be truly over."

"But that has nothing to do with me. I dare not bear this infamy."

He stood up slowly and said in a deep voice: "Pei Xian, let's go and see the sea of ​​Dajin!"
