There was a sudden silence in the room.
After a while.
Nangong Huoyue frowned slightly and said, "Madam Qin, as far as I know, didn't Miss Qin just divorce Luo Qing?"
Song Ruyue lowered her head slightly and said, "Yes, they divorced."
The expression on her face was a little complicated. She sighed and said, "But after all, they have been officially married and are husband and wife. Jianjia doesn't want to get married, and we don't want her to get married. She is not as resistant to Qingzhou as before, so..."
Nangong Huoyue turned her head and looked at someone next to her.
Luo Qingzhou lowered his head, feeling a mixture of emotions.
It turned out that my mother-in-law had already made a decision in her heart. No wonder she was full of resentment towards him during that period.
Miss Qin Er suddenly spoke softly: "Your Majesty, in fact, some things are not what Your Majesty thinks. The relationship between sister and brother Qingzhou has always been very good. They have always respected each other and lived in harmony. As for the divorce..."
"I'm stuffed."
Miss Qin suddenly stood up and walked out of the hall.
Bai Ling and Xia Chan in the corridor immediately followed behind him.
But soon, Bailing sneaked back.
A small ear appeared next to the window.
There is a small pink flower on the ear, which looks delicate and lovely under the bright sunshine.
Nangong Huoyue said: "Wei Mo, what do you want to say?"
Miss Qin Er glanced at someone next to her, lowered her head slightly, and said softly: "Wei Mo wants to say that my sister may... regret it..."
The room suddenly fell silent.
Nangong Huoyue suddenly said calmly: "Is it too late to regret this kind of thing?"
Song Ruyue immediately said, "Of course we can make it in time. Jianjia and Qingzhou are both members of our family, not outsiders, so how can we not make it in time?"
Miss Qin Er also said softly: "As long as Brother Qingzhou and Sister are willing, it will not be too late."
Nangong Huoyue narrowed her eyes, turned her head, looked at someone beside her, and said, "Feiyang, do you think it's too late for something like this?"
Luo Qingzhou lowered his head, stammered, and said awkwardly: "Your Majesty, this kind of thing... is, it's someone else's family affair..."
Suddenly, someone stepped hard on my feet under the table.
Luo Qingzhou closed his mouth and dared not say another word.
It was quiet for a long time again.
Nangong Huoyue said calmly: "Well, since Madam Qin said so, I won't force it. If Miss Qin and Luo Qing are really destined to be together, then I will naturally bless them."
Seeing this, Song Ruyue breathed a sigh of relief and said quickly, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Nangong Huoyue didn't say anything else.
Miss Qin Er secretly winked at someone next to her and pursed her lips slightly.
Luo Qingzhou didn't dare to respond.
They chatted for a while longer.
Nangong Huoyue looked up at the sky outside, then stood up and said goodbye.
Song Ruyue and Miss Qin Er hurriedly stood up to see him off.
Arrived outside the gate.
Nangong Huoyue turned around and said, "Madam Qin, remember to say hello to Luo Qing on my behalf. By the way, congratulate him on my behalf... Never mind, if you guys have another wedding, I will come to congratulate him in person. After all..."
She glanced coldly at someone beside her and said, "After all, he is my most trusted minister."
After saying this, he gently shook his sleeves and got on the carriage.
Luo Qingzhou exchanged a glance with Miss Qin Er again, then hurriedly caught up with the carriage.
"drive!"
The guards surrounded the carriage and slowly left.
Only after the team walked out of the alley did Song Ruyue dare to raise her head, with a worried look on her face: "Wei Mo, His Majesty seems a little unhappy. We rejected her and Master Chu, will... "
Miss Qin Er comforted her softly, "Mother, it's okay. His Majesty is broad-minded and will not blame us for this matter."
Song Ruyue felt relieved after hearing this and said, "Yes, Your Majesty probably just mentioned it casually. How could a wife really do that for her husband... Ahem, I won't say any more, I won't say any more..."
Miss Qin Er suddenly looked at her and said, "Mother, how could you suddenly agree..."
Song Ruyue rolled her eyes immediately, looked at her with a resentful look and said, "How can mother not agree? You whisper in mother's ear every other day, blowing Mihu Lake wind, one moment you say how pitiful your sister is, no one to accompany her, no one to talk to; the next moment you say how good and outstanding that boy is. You also say how good the relationship between Jianjia and that boy is now, that she listens to his stories every night, forces him to sing, and plays the piano for him... Humph, if that's really the case, would mother dare to object?"
Miss Qin Er smiled, hugged her arm affectionately and said, "Mother, Wei Mo really didn't lie. If you don't believe me, go ask Bailing and Chanchan. As long as Brother Qingzhou went to Lingchan Moon Palace, Sister became a different person. Her mood obviously became much better."
Song Ruyue was silent for a moment, then said, "If that's the case, then it couldn't be better. It just so happens that Jianjia doesn't have to get married, and your mother and father don't have to worry about her being wronged by others."
Miss Qin Er smiled and said, "Sister will definitely not be wronged at home. Even if she is wronged, it will be Brother Qingzhou who is wronged. Brother Qingzhou is so powerful outside, but in front of sister, he is very well-behaved and honest."
Song Ruyue looked at her and said, "Are you sure Jianjia and Qingzhou will agree?"
Miss Qin nodded and said, "Of course."
Song Ruyue frowned slightly and said, "Then won't they have to get married again at that time?"
Miss Qin Er smiled and said, "No need, we are all family anyway, there is no need to be so particular."
Song Ruyue sighed softly, feeling mixed emotions.
Now that things have come to this, what else can she say
I just want my daughter to be happy.
As for that boy, she had to say that she was very satisfied with him.
"Let's go back. Go see Jianjia, talk to her, and ask for her opinion. If she doesn't object and doesn't say anything, then it's done."
Miss Qin Er smiled and said, "Mother knows my sister well."
Song Ruyue rolled her eyes at her and said, "My daughter, how could I not understand her? And you, do you think I don't know anything? I've known for a long time that you were interested in that boy. Humph, you even hid him in your bed. Do you think I'm a fool?"
Qiu'er and Xiaodie at the back both covered their mouths and laughed secretly.
The Queen's carriage drove out of the alley and moved slowly on the street.
In the carriage, the queen had a sullen face and closed her eyes to rest.
Luo Qingzhou sat beside her, diligently massaging her legs, his eyes occasionally looking at her belly. Even now, it still felt like a dream.
The carriage quickly crossed the arch bridge over the moat and entered the imperial city.
At this time, Nangong Huoyue opened his eyes, looked at him coldly and said, "Don't you want to explain?"
Luo Qingzhou looked bewildered and asked, "What do you want to explain?"
Nangong Huoyue narrowed her eyes and said, "Of course it's you and your ex-wife! When did you reconcile? When did you plan to remarry? When did your mother-in-law agree? Did you seduce your sister-in-law first, or did she seduce you first? Tell the truth!"
"… "
Luo Qingzhou froze for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, if I say that I don't know anything about this, would you believe me?"
Nangong Huoyue snorted coldly: "What do you think? Do you think I will believe it?"
Luo Qingzhou was silent for a moment, and then said, "The Second Miss did have this idea, but I never agreed to it. I have already divorced the First Miss, so how could we be together again? I can't seduce her, and your majesty knows her character, so it's even more impossible for her to seduce me."
Nangong Huoyue said coldly: "Then why did your mother-in-law say that just now?"
Luo Qingzhou thought for a moment and said, "Maybe it's to reject His Majesty. After all, they don't want Miss Qin to leave, and Miss Qin has a bad temper. If she enters the palace and gets along with His Majesty, I'm afraid she will offend His Majesty. So, my mother-in-law doesn't dare to agree."
Nangong Huoyue sneered and said, "So what do you think? Do you still have any thoughts about her?"
Luo Qingzhou did not answer immediately. He looked at her and asked, "Your Majesty, may I ask why you suddenly thought of asking Miss Qin to marry me? Is it just to test me?"
Nangong Huoyue was silent for a moment, then glared and said, "Yes, of course I am not sincere! I just want to see if you still have feelings for her!"
Luo Qingzhou frowned slightly and said softly: "Your Majesty, you are overthinking. Some things, once in the past, can never be turned back. Besides, Your Majesty is now pregnant with my child, how can I still have such wild thoughts?"
Nangong Huoyue snorted coldly and said, "Are you sure you are not imagining things?"
Luo Qingzhou said: "I didn't."
Nangong Huoyue suddenly asked again: "What about the woman who burned her soul for you in Mocheng and lived and died with you? Are you sure you don't have any crazy thoughts about her?"
After these words were spoken, Luo Qingzhou suddenly fell silent.
Nangong Huoyue looked at him and said nothing more.
Not long.
The carriage stopped in front of Yaohua Palace.
Luo Qingzhou stood up and helped her out of the carriage.
Nangong Huoyue didn't let him in. She looked at him and said, "Go back. You don't have to accompany me. You should go back and spend more time with your Wei Mo. She is a truly good wife. She has never been jealous of or rejected anyone, even someone she has never met."
After saying that, she walked through the door.
After taking a few steps, she suddenly turned back and said, "By the way, thank Miss Yueyao on my behalf. Thank her for helping to defend the city, and thank her... for sacrificing her life to save my husband. Also, tell her that I agree to let her in as long as she is willing. However, she has to call me sister, after all, I am the legal wife."
After saying that, she walked away quickly, her red skirt swaying.
Luo Qingzhou stood outside the door for a long time before turning around and walking out of the palace.
When he returned to the Qin residence as Luo Qingzhou, Song Ruyue just walked out of the gate. She was stunned for a moment when she saw him, and said in surprise: "Qingzhou, you're back so early? By the way, His Majesty came today and asked about you. If you have time, go to the palace to see His Majesty. The Spring Examination will be held soon, and His Majesty will set the questions himself. You have to say good things to His Majesty and please him. Maybe you will be the top scorer by then."
At this point, she laughed, her face full of excitement and anticipation as she said, "If you really become the top scholar, our whole family will benefit from it. When you have made great achievements, maybe you can even help mother-in-law get a royal consort."
Luo Qingzhou looked at the bright and friendly smile on her face, and thought of her kindness, and couldn't help but feel warm in his heart. He bowed his head and said respectfully: "Don't worry, mother-in-law, Qingzhou will definitely help you get a royal consort."
Song Ruyue smiled and said, "You are right. A gentleman's word is as good as his bond. You can't lie to your mother-in-law."
Luo Qingzhou said: "I would never dare to lie."
Song Ruyue smiled and gave a few more words of encouragement, then Fang took Mei'er away happily and went to the store.
Luo Qingzhou stood at the door for a while before entering the mansion.
When he returned to Meixiang Garden.
Miss Qin Er was wearing a plain white dress and a coat. She was sitting weakly in front of the stone table in the courtyard, quietly flipping through the book in her hands.
When Luo Qingzhou walked over, she suddenly raised her head and whispered, "Brother Qingzhou, have you read this "Dayan Etiquette" carefully?"
Luo Qingzhou was slightly startled when he heard this, and looked at the book in her hand, and said, "I have read it, what's wrong?"
Miss Qin lowered her head and took another look at the words above before she said softly, "Nothing."
Pause.
She raised her head again and said, "Brother Qingzhou, Weimo just suddenly discovered that there seems to be a secret hidden in this book."
"secret?"
Luo Qingzhou was stunned for a moment, then sat down beside her, picked up the book on the table, flipped through it casually, and asked, "What secret?"
Miss Qin stared at him quietly for a while, and said softly: "A secret that will shock Brother Qingzhou."
Luo Qingzhou looked at her and asked, "Really?"
Miss Qin nodded affirmatively: "Yes."
Luo Qingzhou locked eyes with her for a few seconds, then lowered his head and flipped through the book, "Which page?"
Miss Qin paused and said, "Twelve."
