Bringing love across time and space

Gu Yuchen and Lin Qingya left the warehouse and quietly returned to Lin Qingya's courtyard.

The early morning sun shines on the bluestone slabs of the courtyard, adding a touch of warmth and poetry to this quiet place.

Gu Yuchen's eyes flashed with a hint of amusement. He looked at Lin Qingya.

He whispered, "I didn't expect that the dignified Princess Chen has the potential to be a thief."

Lin Qingya was about to cross the threshold, but when she heard these words, her steps suddenly stopped.

Her heart trembled, as if Gu Yuchen's words touched a chord in her heart.

She turned her head and wanted to explain, but she saw Gu Yuchen looking at her with a half-smile.

Those deep eyes seemed to contain endless secrets.

Lin Qingya became anxious and lost her balance. She staggered and leaned forward.

Seeing this, Gu Yuchen originally just wanted to see Lin Qingya's reaction, but he didn't expect her to suddenly fall down.

He was startled and reached out to help, but it was too late.

At this moment, Lin Qingya had already pounced on Gu Yuchen, and the distance between the two of them was instantly shortened.

Gu Yuchen only felt the softness on his lips and a faint fragrance coming from his nose.

That was Lin Qingya's body fragrance, fresh and elegant, making people feel relaxed and happy.

But Lin Qingya, her heart was filled with panic and embarrassment at this moment.

She thought her first kiss would be at a romantic moment.

She was gently taken away by her beloved, but she didn't expect to be presented to Gu Yuchen in such a miserable way.

Her cheeks instantly turned bright red, and she felt both annoyed and ashamed.

Gu Yuchen was also somewhat at a loss as to what to do due to this sudden change.

He just wanted to make a joke, but he didn't expect things to develop to this point.

He looked at Lin Qingya's face full of shame and anger, and an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart.

The two people's eyes met at this moment, as if time had stopped.

Lin Qingya's heart was beating like thunder. She felt like she was deeply attracted by Gu Yuchen's gaze and couldn't extricate herself.

And Gu Yuchen found that he had developed unprecedented feelings for this woman.

Just as the two were caught in this inexplicable awkwardness, a breeze blew by, breaking the brief tranquility.

Lin Qingya came back to her senses as if she had just woken up from a dream. She hurriedly pushed Gu Yuchen away.

She glared at him in shame and anger: "You...you big pervert!"

Gu Yuchen was somewhat stunned by Lin Qingya's sudden anger.

He scratched his head and said innocently, "You can't blame me for this. It was you who wanted to rush over."

"You...you are talking nonsense!" Lin Qingya's cheeks turned red with anger.

She knew she must look very embarrassed at the moment, but she couldn't control her emotions.

She turned and ran into the house, slamming the door shut.

Gu Yuchen looked at the closed door, and a ripple appeared in his heart.

He didn't know why he had such a feeling towards Lin Qingya.

But he knew he had to figure it all out.

The palace is magnificent with carved beams and painted buildings, fully displaying the royal style.

However, the emperor at this moment had no intention of appreciating the beautiful scenery. He was sitting on the dragon throne with a frown on his face, his heart full of worries.

It turned out that the theft from the treasury had not yet been solved, but yesterday and today,

Many ministers' homes were robbed, and even the two state treasurers, the second prince, and Concubine Jing were robbed.

This series of theft cases made the emperor feel unprecedented pressure.

His face was a little pale and his eyes were bloodshot, obviously he had not slept the night before.

In the court, ministers were talking about the theft case.

The emperor listened to their speeches quietly, but his heart was in turmoil.

He knew that these theft cases were not simply committed by thieves, but that there must be more complex forces behind them.

However, he could not express these worries and could only bury them deep in his heart.

In the past few days, the situation in the court of Kyoto changed suddenly. The news that Gu Yuchen was about to be confiscated and exiled came like a bolt from the blue, shocking everyone in the court who knew the news.

Amidst this turmoil, the Third Prince also learned about this matter. He was now alone in the court, pondering how he could leave this place of trouble with Lin Qingya and the others.

He knew very well that Lin Qingya must be worried at the moment, and he hoped to share some of her worries and provide her with more help.

As time flies, the third prince can't help but recall a warm memory from his childhood.

At that time, he had not yet been adopted by the Queen. He was of little influence and was like an insignificant speck of dust in the palace. He was often bullied by the eldest prince.

Every time that happened, his heart was filled with helplessness and loneliness, as if the whole world had abandoned him.

However, during a palace banquet, Lin Qingya appeared in his life like an angel.

That day, Lin Qingya went to the palace to attend a palace banquet. She was wearing gorgeous clothes and looked like a blooming peony, gorgeous and charming.

When she saw the eldest prince bullying the third prince, she stood up without hesitation and created an illusion for the eldest prince that there was a ghost, allowing the third prince to escape.

Lin Qingya pulled the third prince to a remote corner of the palace, where it was quiet and safe.

She turned around and gave the Third Prince a brilliant smile. That smile was as warm and bright as the spring sunshine.

She asked with concern: "Where are you hurt? I'll give you a cold, and it won't hurt anymore."

At that moment, a warm feeling surged in the Third Prince's heart. It was the first time he felt the kindness and care of others.

The third prince looked at Lin Qingya's sincere and concerned eyes, and the gratitude in his heart was beyond words.

He hurriedly said, "I'm fine, these are just minor injuries. I don't know which family you are from, I will definitely reward you handsomely in the future."

Lin Qingya waved her hand nonchalantly and said carelessly: "I am Lin Qingya, the legitimate daughter of Prime Minister Lin. If anyone bullies you in the future, just tell me my name and I will protect you in the future."

Those words made the Third Prince feel unprecedented warmth.

From then on, Lin Qingya became a light in his heart, illuminating his way forward and allowing him to find a glimmer of support and comfort amidst the intrigues in the palace.

Now, when the third prince recalled that past event again, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He knew that no matter how time passed, no matter where they were, that pure friendship and beautiful memories would always be engraved in his heart.

He took a deep breath and looked into the distance.

He knew that he was willing to bravely face all difficulties and challenges for Lin Qingya and for that deep friendship.

He was also tired of the intrigues of the royal family. He wanted to find the young girl who showed kindness to him, but he had not yet avenged his biological mother.

So the third prince made up his mind, and he made arrangements for revenge for his biological mother in the next few days.

He wanted to find Gu Yuchen and Lin Qingya to discuss with them how to leave Kyoto.

He wanted to provide her with all the help he could so that she could feel a little warmth and support in her difficult situation.
