Chapter 51: Show Your Mind
When the night was shrouding the thatched cottage of Qishan, Gongzi Qingqian and others came back.
The soldiers guarding outside the thatched cottage brought the wine and food. No one spoke and drank in silence.
"Since they are both emperors, they should work together! If someone is confused at this time, I will definitely not cover up!" Chen Yi felt that the two men of Prince Qingqian and Prince Jinlan were in the same state as water and fire, and the journey was awkward. Therefore, he used the wine to warn them so that they would not face each other with swords for the sake of the treasure. What's more, there were people from Weihong who were staring at them.
Unexpectedly, neither Mr. Qingqian nor Mr. Jinlan appreciated his affection. The two still said nothing and did not look at each other.
Yao Tong and Feng Yan stared at each other from time to time. Only Xuanfei ate and drank on his own.
Rouxin came over to add wine to Chen Yi. Chen Yi's aura was a little calmer.
Xuanfei drank a little too much. He leaned on Gongzi Qingqian and said drunken words.
Chen Yi sat in the middle and meditated against the beam and pillar. Yao Tong and Feng Yan were guarding the door.
Rouxin fell asleep on Gongzi Jinlan's legs. Gongzi Qingqian couldn't fall asleep.
Gongzi Jinlan touched Rouxin's bun from time to time with his hands. Gongzi Qingqian simply closed his eyes and refused to look. But he felt really uncomfortable.
Young Master Jinlan woke Rou Xin early. Feng Yan pushed the door and walked in.
"When is it?" Gongzi Jinlan asked deliberately.
"Just after Yin time!" Feng Yan's voice woke up Young Master Qingqian and others.
"The 33rd hole should have eyebrows and eyes!" Young Master Jinlan stood up holding Rouxin's shoulder. Then he pulled Rouxin up.
Young Master Qingqian had to take out the secret text and put it on the low table. His eyes fell on the four words "Jiang Mengliangzhi".
"Have Brother Chen ever heard of Jiang Mengliang?"
"Jiang Mengliang?" Chen Yi, who was washing his face, raised his head.
"Well! The last four words in the first secret text are 'Jiang Mengliangzhi'." Gongzi Qingqian was secretly happy when she saw Chen Yi's reaction. It seemed that there was really Jiang Mengliang.
"He is my uncle! He is good at the art of Qimen. However, he is unwilling to surrender to the court, so he lives in seclusion. Unexpectedly, he actually hides the treasure!" Chen Yi wrung his hand towel and wiped his face.
"Did he live in the place 'Zhi' before?" Gongzi Qingqian asked.
"Well! A beautiful lakeside!" Chen Yi walked to the door with a basin.
"Bar the lake!" Young Master Qingqian already knew which cave Thirty-san was!
The soldiers brought breakfast. Young Master Qingqian ate very slowly. Young Master Jinlan saw that he had found the cave. But he did not point it out.
After the meal, Young Master Qingqian asked everyone to have a good rest and Shen Shi set out to find the treasure. Then he followed Chen Yi and asked him to buy something.
Chen Yi left, and Gongzi Qingqian fell asleep on the straw mat in the cottage. Xuanfei sat beside him and protected him. Yao Tong fell asleep leaning against the pillar.
Feng Yan sat in the corner of their wall facing each other with a sword and fell asleep. Young Master Jinlan took Rouxin to the surroundings of the thatched cottage to see the scenery.
Rouxin likes plants and trees, but she just looks at the mountain flowers she likes and doesn't do anything.
Young Master Jinlan pinched a pink flower and inserted it on the soft-hearted bun.
"Flowers also have life." Rouxin said weakly.
"It is its honor to meet someone who knows how to appreciate!" Young Master Jinlan kissed Rouxin's forehead.
Rouxin's heart suddenly jumped, and a red cloud made Rouxin's face even more charming. Young Master Jinlan looked down at Rouxin. His nose was very close to Rouxin's face. Rouxin could clearly feel his breath.
Rouxin had a moment of impulse and almost threw herself into Gongzi Jinlan's arms. But she turned around and walked away gently. The concept of ethics and hierarchy that she had been instilled since childhood made her give up what she wanted.
Young Master Jinlan knew Rouxin’s thoughts. She might be right. What can she not promise? She will never become her own wife.
The children of the gentry can only marry women from prominent families, and love is just a joke to them.
What Rouxin wants is a lifelong and a pair of people, which is also out of reach.
At this time, the hearts of Gongzi Jinlan and Rouxin were full of contradictions and entanglements. No matter how smart Ren Gongzi Jinlan was, he could not break the shackles of the gentry. Their marriage was never self-reliant, and could only be a combination of interests. Gongzi Jinlan knew very well.
The reason why Prince Jinlan planned the throne for the second prince was for the benefit of their family. What Prince Qingqian did was the same.
Therefore, the humble position of the soft heart destined that she could not have any consequences with them. Unless she willingly became a concubine for life.
I was a slave at that time, and I had no choice but to live or die. Once their master got married, their destiny was in the hands of the mistress.
Ordinary slaves, the mistress will not be in trouble with them. The concubine must be in trouble. Most of them will be sold into prostitutes. If they meet a more cruel female protagonist, they will die.
The male protagonist will not protect them because of a temporary joy. After all, their wives are of great origin.
"You can't give up..." Young Master Jinlan was denied before he finished speaking.
"No!" Rouxin blurted out.
"With me protecting you, no one will hurt you!" Young Master Jinlan tried to convince Rouxin. He walked behind Rouxin and hugged her waist.
"You can't ignore anything!" Rouxin pulled away Gongzi Jinlan's arm cruelly.
Rouxin ran to a hill and let the wind blow her hair away. The pink flower was blown by the wind to the feet of Gongzi Jinlan who came afterwards.
Young Master Jinlan bent down and picked up the flower and inserted it back into Rouxin's hair bun. He turned Rouxin's body and kissed her.
Rouxin cried in the arms of Gongzi Jinlan. Gongzi Jinlan hugged Rouxin and said seriously: "My people and heart are yours."
But Rouxin broke free from his arms and ran back to the thatched cottage. Xuanfei stood up in surprise when he saw Rouxin's face with pear blossoms.
"Who bullied you?"
"No!" Rouxin pulled out her handkerchief and wiped her face and sat on the straw mat.
Young Master Qingqian sat up and looked at the door. Young Master Jinlan walked in with a gloomy expression.
"How did you do to her!" Xuan Fei spit out the grass roots in his mouth.
"She is mine!" Young Master Jinlan walked to Rouxin's side and sat down with a domineering attitude. He took out his handkerchief and wiped the corners of Rouxin's eyes.
"You!" Xuanfei raised his hand.
"Xuanfei!" Young Master Qingqian shouted softly.
"Don't forget what I said!" Chen Yi walked in.
Xuanfei put down his arm and sat down angrily. Young Master Qingqian looked at Chen Yi. Chen Yi nodded at him.
Young Master Jinlan cut his hair for Rou. Rouxin blushed and looked down at her hands.
Young Master Qingqian didn't believe how Gongzi Jinlan would treat Rouxin in this wilderness. But his heart was indeed full of sorrow and helplessness. He sent him away with him. On the day when she became a chess piece, everything about her would not belong to him, including her life!
