Come on, Jiaojiao, I'm sick too.

Wen Yuqing let go of Panda Tuanzi and turned to look at him: "We can chat here too."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Juncheng glanced at the dumpling, and then the panda dumpling received the two-legged beast's gaze and silently walked to the side, taking its little apple and slipping away quickly.

You can’t mess with the financial sponsor.

"Qing'er, Tuanzi is going to eat bamboo. Can we go into the house too?" They sat down and had a good chat.

Wen Yuqing looked at him strangely when she heard that. Why did it feel like he spoke in a strange way, completely different from before?

"Okay." Wen Yuqing clapped her hands and walked out of the Panda Garden. Let's see what he has to say.

The two came to the main house, which was a house that Xiao Juncheng bought temporarily, so it was not well decorated and only had some simple infrastructure.

But at this moment there was a plate of exquisite pastries on the table.

"Qing'er, try this cake." Xiao Juncheng picked up a piece of osmanthus cake and handed it to the girl.

Wen Yuqing looked at him strangely, then reached out to take it, her fingertips accidentally touching the man's fingers.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Then Xiao Juncheng poured the girl another cup of tea. The pastries were dry and should be eaten with tea.

Wen Yuqing was surprised at the man's thoughtfulness, but she enjoyed it all with peace of mind. After not seeing him for a year, Xiao Juncheng was different.

Transitioned?

Confused, Wen Yuqing decided to wait silently for his speech.

Wen Yuqing ate in small bites, her mouth puffing up. Xiao Juncheng found her adorable even more. He twisted his fingers and felt that he was really sick.

Now Wen Yuqing is cute in every way.

Wen Yuqing certainly didn't ignore the look he gave her, so she swallowed the osmanthus cake in her mouth and asked, "Your Highness, don't you have something to say?"

Come on, tell me what you are planning and why you suddenly got engaged.

"Well, today, my father issued an imperial decree and sent it to the Prime Minister's Mansion."

"Yes, I know. I have received the order. So, was this arranged by His Highness?"

"No."

Wen Yuqing frowned. No? What does that mean?

"It was arranged by the Queen Mother."

Wen Yuqing: ...

Could you please talk without gasping?

"The Queen?"

"Yes, because mother knows that I love you."

Wen Yuqing's fingers trembled when she heard this: "Your Highness likes me? Why? Didn't Your Highness reject me that day?"

"No, I didn't refuse, I just didn't react." Xiao Juncheng frowned.

Now he understood his feelings. He liked her and she was special to him, so since she was the one he wanted, he would try his best to get her.

"Oh, but Your Highness, why don't you ask me if I still like you?" He was too careless. He didn't even ask her opinion?

"Does Qing'er still like me?" Xiao Juncheng asked with a smile. If Qing'er didn't want to now, he could pursue her again.

"Hmph, let's see how you perform." Wen Yuqing said arrogantly.

"Okay, I'll listen to you, Qing'er." The arrogant little cat became even more adorable.

Wen Yuqing was satisfied, then she showed a lovely smile and continued to eat the cakes on the table. She felt that the osmanthus cake was even sweeter.

"Let's continue playing with Tuanzi." After eating, Wen Yuqing wiped her hands and said to Xiao Juncheng.

"The panda is resting, Qing'er, can you stay with me for a while longer?" They haven't seen each other for a year. During this year, he often thought of her and her sad eyes. He wanted to come back and explain everything, but he couldn't. In addition to his love for his daughter, he also had an important responsibility.

Accompany him? Wen Yuqing looked at Xiao Juncheng in surprise, a little surprised that he would say such emotional words.

"Is it okay, Qing'er?"

"Yes, sure." Wen Yuqing stuttered. She was not used to Xiao Juncheng like this, but he was even more attractive like this.

"Qing'er is so nice." Xiao Juncheng curled the corners of his lips slightly, and the kitten was shy.

Wen Yuqing: ⊙w⊙

She looked away, not daring to look into his murderous gaze again, and changed the subject, "You just said that the marriage was arranged by the Empress. Did you bring it up on your own initiative? What did His Highness say?"

She was really curious about how he, who was usually so cold, got along with his family.

"I guess so, but not entirely. Mother has known for a long time that I am attracted to Qing'er."

"Huh?" He knew it a long time ago? Then when did he fall in love with her?

How come she doesn't know? Is there a system failure?

Seeing the girl's confused look, Xiao Juncheng chuckled and explained, "When the Liang Kingdom envoys came to see me, my mother discovered my interaction with Qing'er, but at that time I hadn't realized my own heart."

"Oh~" The Queen has good eyesight.

"Then what does Your Highness like about me?" she asked.

At this moment, the two of them were sitting together and chatting like ordinary lovers. There was nothing abrupt about it. Instead, they felt very comfortable getting along with each other. Wen Yuqing felt that they were getting along very harmoniously and warmly at the moment.

So she asked whatever she thought of, probably because they were already very familiar with each other.

"Qing'er is very special." Xiao Juncheng replied. He didn't know how to describe this feeling. He just had an inexplicable attraction to her and couldn't help but look at her sideways.

Just like the first time they met, he saw her looking around downstairs at first sight, and he let her go for no reason when she tried to scam him for the first time.

If it were someone else, huh...

In fact, he also felt very strange at that time that he agreed to such an unreasonable request of riding in the same carriage.

"Special..." This is indeed a good reason, I have seen it somewhere before. When you feel that someone is special, it is usually because you may have some kind of feelings for her/him.

"What about Qing'er?" Xiao Juncheng asked back, why did she like him?

"Me? Of course I think His Highness is handsome and rich." Wen Yuqing said as a matter of course.

"Handsome and rich?" Forgive him for not quite understanding.

"Yes, Your Highness, look at yourself. You are the Crown Prince, handsome, elegant, and suave. You are as handsome as Pan An~" Wen Yuqing stretched out her two claws and held the man's face.

As a young lady, of course she would treat people differently depending on their status!

As for being rich, he is the true embodiment of the legendary family that has a throne to inherit.

Xiao Juncheng laughed. It turned out that she was attracted by his face. He took the soft little hand from his face and held it in his big palm.

This was the first time they had physical contact. At this moment, he looked at the pair of white jade hands in his hands and the soft touch on his face just now, and his eyes deepened.

Wen Yuqing finally realized what was happening. Oh, she had accidentally touched him. It was really a mistake for male homosexuality. She moved her little hand that was being held.

"Qing'er."

"Hmm?" She tilted her head in confusion.

Then she felt her hand tighten, and someone pulled her forward, and she fell into a warm embrace.

Wen Yuqing: (? ? ?? )

Are you hugging her so tenderly now?

She leaned in the man's arms, listening to the heartbeat coming from his chest, and couldn't help but nod her head.

Xiao Juncheng took the opportunity to stroke her head. It was furry and felt even better than the panda dumpling.

"Your Highness..."

"Hmm? Qing'er, you can call me by my name in private." Xiao Juncheng murmured, continuing to hold the person in his arms.

"Jun Cheng."

"Ah."

"It's hot." It's summer now, and the ancients wore a lot of clothes. Wen Yuqing said in a depressing way.

Hearing this, Xiao Juncheng reluctantly let go of the girl in his arms, then said, "I'll have someone bring some ice."

"no thanks."

"Hmm?" Qing'er wanted to escape from his arms?

Wen Yuqing's eyes flashed. I've hugged you long enough...

"that's it."

"Okay." Looking at the girl's rosy face, he just thought she was shy.

Then he picked up an exquisite box from the table and opened it. It was a hundred-year-old snow ginseng that he had found especially for her. He pushed it in front of the girl and said, "Qing'er, this is a hundred-year-old snow ginseng. It will be very beneficial to your health. Take it back and eat a little every day. I hope Qing'er will recover soon."

Wen Yuqing looked at the snow ginseng with a little surprise. A hundred-year-old snow ginseng is a rare treasure. Is it for her to use?

"Is this for me...?" Such a valuable item must be hard to come by.

"Yeah." She has been in such poor health since she was in her mother's womb, so she has to take good care of herself. This snow ginseng is a rare and miraculous medicine.

"Thank you."

"Silly girl, how can you say thank you to your husband?" Xiao Juncheng knocked on the girl's forehead and said.

My husband...

Wen Yuqing's face flushed instantly, she was so shy. Besides, they weren't even married yet, so how could he call himself his husband?

"Isn't it, Qing'er?" Xiao Juncheng teased as he looked at the girl's suddenly blushing face.

"certainly not!"

Not married yet!

"Well, it seems Qing'er is not very satisfied with me as her fiancé." Xiao Juncheng said pretending to be disappointed.

Wen Yuqing: “…”

The two of them played around for a while, and after lunch, Wen Yuqing asked to go back. She came out secretly, and Xiaotao didn't even know about it. She was afraid that they would find out and she would no longer worry.

"I'll take Qing'er back."

"No, it's not far."

She had observed when she came here that this small courtyard was in the same area as the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Be good and listen to me." He wanted to stay with her for a while longer.

"Okay then." Then the two of them left the yard, and then she thought: "Will Tuanzi always be here?"

"Well, I'll send it back to the palace after a while. Qing'er can come and play anytime."

"Okay." She will come over often.

The carriage took Wen Yuqing back to the vicinity of the Wen Mansion and she was about to get off. She didn't want to be seen by others.

"Your Highness, goodbye." After getting out of the car, Wen Yuqing leaned over and waved her hand goodbye.

"Goodbye, Qing'er."

Hey, when did he start being so secretive when meeting his fiancée?

He watched the girl's back as she left, and only when Wen Yuqing was far away did he turn the carriage back to the palace.

-

At the Wen Mansion, Wen Huai was standing in Wen Yuqing's yard with a gloomy face. He was about to come over to chat with her but found that she was not in the house!

So when Wen Yuqing stepped into her courtyard, she saw a big brother with a black face, and she couldn't help swallowing.

"Big brother."

"Where did you go?"

"Go out for a stroll."

"Going to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

Wen Yuqing: “Yeah.”

Alas, thinking of today's imperial edict, he sighed.

"Xiao Juncheng likes you."

Wen Yuqing nodded: "Yes."

"Brother, please bless us. Besides, Xiao Juncheng is a good person. You shouldn't be so prejudiced against him." Wen Yuqing advised.

"Okay, but if you're wronged, you have to tell Big Brother."

"Okay." Wen Yuqing smiled. Wen Huai was really nice to her.

"Go back and rest." In fact, he didn't come here to blame her, but just wanted to make sure that if Xiao Juncheng really liked her and treated her well, he could reluctantly accept it.

After Wen Huai left, Wen Yuqing went back to her room to rest for a while, and then started calling the system. She thought the system was broken, or Xiao Juncheng was just too good at acting.

If you like her, how can your heart rate not move?

[063, Broken system, are you broken? Why is my heart rate still silent?]

[System 063 is online, host, do you have any questions? ]

[I was wondering why my heart rate hasn't changed. Xiao Juncheng has even admitted that he likes me!]

[Okay, I'll check.]

System 063 was also puzzled, and then he searched for this question. Soon, the answer came out, and 063 was also very surprised. "Host, the search results show that ancient people had smaller mood swings and were generally not interested in sex. Therefore, the highest heartbeat value of ancient people was only 70."

They are calm and reserved, especially the princes and nobles.

[Alas, if this happens, we'll lose 30 Heart Points.]

Wen Yuqing: ...

So the world is based on a 70-point scale? No wonder.

As long as there was no mistake or Xiao Juncheng cheated her, it was fine. As for earning a few less heart points? It didn't matter. It wasn't like she couldn't complete the task.

Royal Palace

Xiao Juncheng was caught and interrogated by his gossipy father, the emperor, and mother, the queen, again.

Queen: "Cheng'er, where are you going? You look so happy."

Xiao Juncheng: "..."

His Majesty the Emperor: "You're not going to look for Miss Wen, are you?"

"boring."

Can't he go find his fiancée?

So he left, not wanting to face these two gossipy and excited people, so as not to scare his Qing'er.

Oh, I forgot to tell Qing'er that his mother is not quite normal. Please bear with her in the future.

(The Queen Mother: Thank you! You actually stopped me from being intimate with my daughter-in-law.)

Soon, the news of His Majesty's decree granting the marriage spread like wildfire, and within a day, Wen Yuqing's name was ranked second on the list of popular people in ancient times.

The first is Xiao Juncheng.

It was revealed that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince publicly admitted that he already had someone he loved and decisively refused the marriage, giving the woman a full sense of security.

Second, a revelation: the person His Royal Highness the Crown Prince loves is... the daughter of the Prime Minister! Her maiden name is Wen Yuqing.

The daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, this is something people dare not even think about. They have thought about anyone, but they have never thought about the unloved concubine's daughter in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Their impression of Wen Yuqing was still stuck on her tragic image of being unloved by her father and having no mother, but they never expected that she would suddenly fly up to the tree and become a real phoenix.

hiss...

No one understood what was going on. Wen Yuanzhao, the father of the person involved, was still a little dazed. However, he soon came to his senses because the emperor asked him to return to court the next day and his resignation application was rejected.

Wen Yuanzhao: ...

No, he doesn't want to go to court, he wants to go home and play mahjong!
