And when I saw her smiling happily, I couldn't help but smile at the corners of my mouth.

I am happy when she is happy!
"Why don't you eat with me, Your Highness?" she whispered.

Without the slightest hesitation, I quickly nodded and agreed, "Okay, let's go together."

After that, I grabbed her arm through the cloak and pulled her to sit on the porch.

She put the brown paper bag on her lap and slowly untied the string to open it, and the pastry leaked out.

She looks at the pastry and I look at her.

I want to just watch her eat quietly like this.

She picked up a piece of pastry, handed it to me suddenly, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, eat first."

I don't even look at the pastry, just look at her big smile.

With that smile, I took the pastry.

She didn't take any more, just sat there and looked at me.

I took a small bite.

With light in her eyes, she picked up the pastry and ate it.

While we were eating, the two of us looked sideways at the scenery outside the corridor. There were many stars in the sky, and each one was very bright!

And there are stars in her eyes.

When I was greedy, she handed over another piece of pastry, and I realized that the pastry in my hand had already been eaten before I knew it.

I took it in a daze.

But I didn't eat, but looked at her side face, and suddenly said, "You are willing to marry me, right?"

She stopped still, the lantern on the porch shone on her face, and I could clearly see the base of her ears from this position.

Her ears were a little red.

After a while, she slowly turned her head to look at me, and she said, "I am willing."

At that moment, it felt like something stretched out in my heart. I wished I could stretch out my hands to hold my face and kiss her forehead.

But I know I can't, before I marry her, I have to respect her.

After she took another bite of the pastry with both hands, she said seriously: "Your Highness once asked me if I believe in love at first sight, but I actually don't believe it."

I was surprised, I remember she nodded at that time?
However, I heard her continue to say: "But the moment I saw His Highness, I believed it."

I finished the pastry in my hand in a good mood.

And she immediately handed over a new one.

It turned out that she also paid attention to me.

I took it with a smile and said, "I don't believe it just like you, but I have to believe it after seeing you."

Because with just one glance, you can see ten thousand years in one glance.

She sighed softly and looked up at the moon with a slightly sad expression.

Seeing her like this, my heart sank.

Then she said sadly: "I am the youngest child in the family, and the elders dote on me. My brother always wants me to marry low."

After all, if you are a low-marriage, your family members can help you from time to time. If you are a high-marriage...

"Axi... can I call you like this?" I asked for her permission.

She nodded.

I continued: "Don't worry, I'll only marry you in my life, I don't want any concubines!"

There was surprise in her eyes, don't all men have three wives and four concubines?

"You don't accept two colors?" She asked again in disbelief.

I said seriously: "It is enough to have you."

In the silent night, she and I sat quietly, holding pastries in our hands, looking at each other.

It is said that things are impermanent, so don't promise others anything casually.

But I think I can do this.

Didn't my dad never accept a concubine? My mother has been gone for more than ten years, and my dad still misses my mother.

I thought that if I married Shuxi, I would be fine without having children!
I often hear people say that giving birth to a woman is like going through the gates of hell. Since I like a girl, I won't let her suffer.

Although the family has the throne to inherit, children are really not that important to me.

Father has broken his heart on me, so I don't have to worry about it. If I give birth to a womanizer like Zhilian, it's better not to give birth!
I chatted with her for a long time, from her house to my house, and then back again.

In the end we didn't know what we talked about, we just remembered that the chatting process was very pleasant, besides being happy, we were still happy.

After I sent her back to the female officer's inner courtyard, I couldn't part with her for a while at the door.

Both of us were reluctant to leave first, neither of us turned around, and our eyes fell on each other.

He left in a hurry when he heard a voice nearby.

When I was young, I always had a thin skin, and I was embarrassed to let others know.

When I went back to the Palace of Imperial Harmony, Dad was still reading the scriptures by the candlelight. He was so serious that I didn't even realize it.

When I walked up to him, he suddenly said, "I sent that girl off twice, how's the progress?"

I didn't expect Dad to know that I came in.

I smiled embarrassedly and said, "I think she is a good girl."

Only then did Dad look up at me, and then continued to read the brochure, "Then what does she mean? You know I like to be in love with each other."

He doesn't like to take power over people.

I replied seriously: "Father, don't blame me for being unruly. I told her that I was going to marry her, and she agreed."

Dad closed the booklet, leaned back on the chair and looked at me, "Straight ball is better than me."

As he spoke, he seemed to be recalling something far away, with a sad face on his face, I knew he was thinking about A Niang again.

In fact, I am very curious about the story between him and A Niang, but I am afraid that he will be sad, so I never ask more.

Seeing me standing by the side, Dad came out of his memories.

He looked at me with a full smile, "Wait until Ming'er, I will personally ask Axi what she means, and then I will give you a marriage."

I suddenly remembered what she said.

I said worriedly: "I'm afraid her brother won't agree with her marrying me, and her brother wants her to marry me at a lower price."

"Who is her brother..." Dad thought for a while, "Is it Li Shuliu?"

Li Shuliu and Axi are on a bad relationship, because her parents are old, and Axi's affairs are all decided by her brother.

I nodded, "That's him."

Father didn't take it seriously, "This is easy to handle, you don't have to worry about it, Father will propose marriage to the Li family for you."

He seemed impatient, but luckily it was night, otherwise he would have to find Li Shuliu.

After thinking about it, I sighed secretly again, why is it night now!
If it had been earlier, Dad and Li Shuliu had directly finalized the marriage, maybe I would have to wake up laughing.

But it hasn't been finalized yet, and I'm tossing and turning.

Jian Jia in the Book of Songs, I didn't feel it when I read it before, but now I understand it.

At the first reading, you don't know the meaning of the poem, but after reading it again, you are already in the poem.

I was so excited that I fell asleep unconsciously in the second half of the night, and woke up very tired and sleepy the next day.

Standing in the hall, he didn't dare to doze off, he endured it forcefully, his yawns turned into tears, and forced out from the corners of his eyes.

But it just hangs in the corner of the eye without dripping.

After the imperial court was over, father indeed kept Li Shuliu.

What they can talk about, I can guess.

Ah Xi stood outside the door but panicked. His Majesty called her brother to the Palace of Imperial Harmony, so she was naturally afraid that it might have something to do with her.
