Both worlds are like dreams

Wei Yunzhou stayed at her house for another two days before returning to Jinxiu Tower, while Xuehuang continued to be confined to her house. Fortunately, Gu Qinglan and Mo Xingyue often visited her, bringing her some of her favorite food and gadgets to make her happy.

Especially Mo Xingyue, who almost grew up in her place.

Xue Huang was very puzzled. It was very difficult for her to leave the palace in the past. Recently, she didn't know what happened to the emperor, but Mo Xingyue could find her out of the palace almost every day.

Today is the last day of Xue Huang's house arrest. Mo Xingyue is very happy and has stayed there from morning to night.

After Xuehuang practiced Qinggong with her for a while, she brought her to the pavilion in the middle of the lake at the back door.

She couldn't help but ask, "Have you been worried lately?"

"No." Mo Xingyue said with a smile.

"You lied to me," Xue Huang poked her forehead, "You've been practicing martial arts hard every day since you came to see me recently. This is not like your character."

Mo Xingyue lowered her eyes, "Because apart from my fifth brother, there is no one in the palace who can protect me."

Xue Huang frowned slightly, "Does your father want to choose someone you don't like for you?"

"This is not important now. The person he wants to choose is Mo Yunchen or Shen Shaohui."

"Isn't Shen Shaohui already engaged to that Du something?"

"If my father can issue an order, the Shen family will be eager to cancel the engagement."

"I remember that Shen Shaohui was courteous to you last time at the lime shop. Has he been thinking about you for a long time?"

Mo Xingyue frowned and nodded, "He always followed me when I was little, but I didn't like him."

"I can see that you not only don't like it, you really hate it." Xue Huang said with a smile.

"As for King Han Xi, I dislike him even less. He is too scary."

Xue Huang knew better than anyone how terrifying Mo Yunchen was. The piles of bones in his secret room were a sin that could never be denied. "Isn't your father aware of the rumors about him in the city?"

"Father wants to use me to alienate Shen Congfeng and Mo Yunchen. I don't know much about politics, but I also know that the reason why they can do whatever they want in Beiling is because they hold two-thirds of Beiling's military power. If we can make them suspicious of each other, perhaps it can play a role of checks and balances."

"The cooperation between these two people is indeed due to their own ulterior motives, but they are not fools. They are stronger when they work together and weaker when they separate. Unless it is absolutely necessary, they will continue to cooperate." Xue Huang said.

"So my father is also hesitant. Moreover, Mo Yunchen may not know when he will return to the northern border to guard the city. If I marry him, I will have to go with him. Will I still be able to come back alive?"

"If the day ever comes when you have to get married, I will help you escape."

Mo Xingyue smiled and said, "Only you are so brave to think of such a solution."

"I'm serious. You are my best sister. There is no way I can bear to see you suffer any injustice." Xue Huang said seriously.

Mo Xingyue looked at her and she was really envious of Xue Huang. She lived like the sun, dazzling and unrestrained, illuminating the dark and dreary Shangyang City with warm light.

How she wanted to live like her, without having to bear responsibilities, without having to abide by those cumbersome rules, and could go wherever she wanted and do whatever she wanted.

"Okay," Mo Xingyue said with a smile, "If that day really comes, you will take me away from marriage."

"I can go out tomorrow. How about I take you to the Yue Lao Temple to pray for marriage? I want Yue Lao to bless you to find a husband of your dreams as soon as possible?"

Mo Xingyue's pretty face blushed slightly, but she nodded and agreed, "Then I'll come to see you tomorrow."

"Okay, it's getting late, you should go back to the palace."

Mo Xingyue stood up and said goodbye.

Xue Huang looked at her back and sighed silently in her heart.

"What are you sighing about?" the boy asked.

"What kind of person do you think she likes?"

"I'm not her, how should I know?"

Xue Huang smiled and said, "Didn't you say you can read faces?"

"It's hard to say." said the boy.

Xue Huang rolled her eyes, "I praised you for nothing."

juvenile:"……"

Xue Huang was a little excited because she could leave the house tomorrow and didn't sleep much the whole night.

After waiting for a long time until dawn, she quickly finished her breakfast, changed into beautiful clothes and waited for Mo Xingyue at home.

Mo Ruilin could also leave the house today, but he and Gu Qinglan had to go to court, otherwise Xue Huang would drag them out with her.

Mo Xingyue also arrived early. She was dressed in a low-key way today. She didn't have the gorgeous princess outfit. She was wearing a floor-length brocade dress that was a mixture of moon white and light pink. The hem and cuffs were trimmed with silver thread, and the skirt was embroidered with lily of the valley. It was very pretty. Her black hair was tied into a small and delicate bun with a jade hairpin. The rest of her hair hung down behind her with a few long tassels, which made her look dignified and elegant.

It can be seen that she has dressed up carefully.

Xue Huang smiled and said, "Are you going to seek marriage, so you dressed up nicely?"

Mo Xingyue refused to admit it and said stubbornly: "I am showing respect to Yue Lao."

"Yes, yes, you are right." Xue Huang pulled her out of the door, "Let's go quickly."
