"If Xinghe wasn't a few years older than Jinxi, I would really like to arrange a marriage for them." Gu Lanxi couldn't help but express her feelings after seeing this scene.

She seemed to have just mentioned it casually. Lu Youqing's eyes moved slightly, and finally she chuckled and said, "It all depends on the fate of the children."

She didn't promise anything, nor did she refuse.

She had indeed never thought about this aspect. Firstly, Xinghe was still too young and was currently focusing on studying; secondly, she was more concerned about Xinghe's own wishes in this regard.

Although this era places more emphasis on parents' orders and matchmaker's words, Lu Youqing experienced true love through this experience and believed in fate more.

Xinghe is still young and has not yet experienced love, so how can she understand these things? If she decides on her future now, and they have no feelings for each other in the future, wouldn't they be a pair of resentful couples?

Qin Ke also said that no matter whether she likes a woman or a man in the future, it should be up to her heart.

Su Mian heard their conversation and said speechlessly, "Jinxi can't even speak clearly yet, and you're already worrying about her lifelong affairs. Isn't it too early?"

Gu Lanxi smiled gently: "This is just a casual mention. It is still unknown whether Jinxi's marriage can go as she wishes in the future."

Yes, she is the crown princess, and her marriage concerns the country and the people, so how can it be decided so casually?

Several years later, when Zhao Jinxi accidentally heard her mother chatting about how she had wanted to give her sister Xinghe to be her princess consort, she was not yet familiar with love at that time, but she secretly kept these words in mind.

From then on, he silently regarded her as his "property".

Everyone knows that Princess Zhao Jinxi is blessed with extraordinary talents, unparalleled strategies, and extraordinary talent. However, she has one quirk: a strong possessiveness. When this quirk is manifested on a certain person, it becomes particularly strong. Many people in the capital have had the honor of experiencing this.

But this happened many years later, and now they are still children who have no worries or sorrows.

At this time, Gu Lanxi just mentioned it casually and changed the subject.

Lu Tang and the others were lucky, and they caught a few fish. However, the fish had not been processed, and would have a fishy smell if grilled, so they gave them to the guards to process.

Qin Ke was busy grilling meat and didn't pay much attention to their conversation. When he brought the grilled vegetables and meat over, they laughed even more happily. Jin Yang mostly just watched them chatting from the side.

Seeing Qin Ke's virtuous look, Su Mian turned his eyes and stared at Qin Ke with a smile.

Qin Ke's hair stood on end. He felt that her smile was creepy no matter how he looked at it, and he suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

Sure enough, the next second, Su Mian looked at him with a half-smile and asked, "I heard someone was calling me from behind... Let me think about it,"

As Su Mian spoke, he touched his chin with his index finger, as if thinking.

"Yes, 'Jiao Ruan Ling', I wonder if Qin Hou can help me solve this puzzle?"

Qin Ke was stunned and turned to look at his wife in disbelief.

This was just what he said behind Su Mian's back and he never mentioned it to anyone else. How did Su Mian know about it?

Lu Youqing looked at Qin Ke's guilty and shocked expression with amusement, and shook his head slightly to indicate that he was not the one who said that to her.

"Hurry up and tell me, Lord Qin?"

Even Gu Lanxi and His Majesty looked over curiously. After all, the word was difficult to pronounce and they had never heard of it before, so they were very curious.

Qin Ke coughed lightly in embarrassment, his mind working quickly, and explained: "It means that Miss Su, your body is very flexible, and you must be very beautiful when dancing."

Several people felt that something was wrong, but they couldn't tell what it was.

But Qin Ke was certain that this was what the word meant, and no one else could refute him after he said so.

Only Lu Youqing's eyes curved slightly with a hint of smile.

After this incident, Qin Ke didn't dare to talk to Su Mian anymore. It was too embarrassing to give someone a nickname behind their back and have the person involved know about it.

After the group had a simple meal of barbecue, Xinghe was tired from playing with Jinxi. It was also time for a nap, so she was taken by the maid to a room in the villa to rest.

Lu Youqing and Gu Lanxi looked over with some concern, and saw that the two were sleeping soundly side by side on the bed, with Jinxi's little hand even on Xinghe's chest. Only then did they leave with peace of mind.

After dinner, they were free to form groups and do their own activities. Qin Ke finally had time to spend alone with Lu Youqing. Holding her hand as usual, the two of them strolled along the turquoise lake.

Strictly speaking, they don't have that much time to spend together in such a comfortable way. Although Qin Ke is free now, Lu Youqing is still a Shangshu Ling with the second rank, and it is normal for him to be busy with affairs.

If something big happened, there wouldn’t even be time to eat with Qin Ke.

Xinghe also went to the academy to study every day, leaving early and returning late. Qin Ke was bored, so he had to find something to do for himself, thinking of some new things, opening some shops to do business.

So this is also a rare leisure moment for them.

Lu Youqing mentioned Gu Lanxi's casual remark to Qin Ke and said, "It's too early to say anything now."

Qin Ke nodded silently, but felt that he should plan for this matter in advance.

"When Xinghe grows up and can start his own business, I will resign from my post, how about that?"

Not long after he left, Lu Youqing suddenly spoke again.

Qin Ke turned his head to look at her in surprise, but her gaze was always leisurely fixed on the intersection of the vines and the sky not far away.

"Why do you say that? Don't you have many ambitions that have yet to be realized?"

Lu Youqing raised her hand to brush away the hair that was blown by the breeze and said softly, "It will be a long process to make the seas peaceful and the rivers calm, and the people live in peace. We will do what we can, but we also need people to continue."

Now, looking around the world, the seas are clear and the rivers are peaceful.

They were born in an ordinary life, grew up in chaos, and expended their efforts on the prosperity that exists today.

Each generation has its own responsibilities. Lu Youqing is not a power-hungry person. She wants to realize her ambitions and also wants to spend more time with Qin Ke.

She knew that he wanted to go out and see the beautiful scenery. She had realized her own aspirations and ambitions, and she should also think more about the people around her.

Qin Ke looked at the clear blue sky and the white snow-like clouds, and his heart was open and his eyes and ears were clear. He smiled and said, "Okay!"

Qin Ke stood by the lake and looked into the distance. Everywhere he looked was beautiful scenery. The breeze brushed across his cheeks, making him feel relaxed and happy.

He recalled the day he first came into this world, and it seemed like a lifetime ago. Now that he has his lover by his side, his family by his side, and his friends within reach, Qin Ke feels that this life is already perfect enough.

The text is finished.

Tomorrow will begin the extra story of the eldest princess and the head of the Gu family.
