Xiao Jue was recovering from his injuries in the East Palace, but little did he know that the world had changed outside.
Qin Yi returned to the house from Dali Temple. He was about to go see Qin Zhen, but Xiao Yu grabbed his arm and said softly: "Well...can you not go?"
Qin Yi was stunned for a moment, then he laughed, held Xiao Yulou in his arms, and said with a smile: "What, are you jealous?"
Xiao Yu: "..."
"Zhen Zhen is my sister, and she has not had a mother to take care of her since she was a child, so I care more about her." Qin Zhen hugged Xiao Yu and coaxed softly, "But you don't have to be jealous, she is my sister, and you
She is my favorite wife and the most important person in this world."
Xiao Yu blushed and muttered: "How can I be so stingy?"
Let's not talk about the harmonious relationship between her and Qin Zhen. As far as Qin Yi is concerned, she has no objection.
Although Qin Yi loves Qin Zhen as his sister, he has never neglected her as his wife. She can feel it.
Qin Yi raised his eyebrows: "You're not stingy, why?"
After thinking about it, Qin Yi asked: "Is Zhen Zhen being naughty and making trouble with you again? Was there a fight this time? Let me see if there is any injury. If she is injured, let me take care of her.
"
"No, no," Xiao Yu quickly grabbed her husband's hand, which was about to be examined, and said, "There's no fight, and there's no injury. Stop it."
Qin Yi was surprised: "Why is that?"
Xiao Yu thought for a while and finally decided to tell the truth and said: "There is someone in Zhen Zhen's yard."
When Qin Yi heard this, his face darkened and he walked towards Qin Zhen's yard.
No need to think about it, Qin Yi knew exactly who this person was.
These days, whenever he was not around, the third prince would sneak into the Qin Mansion at every opportunity.
Qin Yi quickly rushed into Qin Zhen's yard and saw Lou Yan sitting next to Qin Zhen, holding nuts in his hand to feed Qin Zhen.
Qin Yi walked over and snatched the nuts, and shouted to Qin Zhen: "You don't have long hands. If you want to eat, you don't know how to do it yourself, and you have to let others feed you?"
Qin Zhen was not surprised and did not change her face even after being yelled at. She drank water slowly.
Lou Yan on the side frowned and looked at Qin Yi with a somewhat dissatisfied look: "I want to feed her. Why are you yelling at her when you come to me?"
After saying that, she put the peeled nuts in Qin Zhen's hand and said gently: "It's okay, don't be afraid, just eat it."
Qin Yi twitched the corner of his mouth, his eldest brother had become a villain.
Xiao Yu hurriedly chased him from behind, glanced at Qin Yi who was furious, smiled apologetically at Lou Yan, and said in a low voice: "Third brother, I'm sorry, I didn't stop him."
Lou Yan paused, then said: "It's okay, I know you tried your best."
Qin Yi looked at Lou Yan, then at Xiao Yu, and finally said in disbelief: "You, you, you...you actually let my wife stop me?"
Then he looked at Xiao Yu, his eyes full of grievance: "Madam, you actually helped an outsider?"
Xiao Yu rarely felt guilty, so he stepped forward and took Qin Yi's hand, saying softly: "I'm sorry, I didn't want to either..."
As soon as she said something soft, Qin Yi's face immediately changed.
Qin Yi took Xiao Yu's hand with his backhand and said in a deep voice: "Okay, I understand. You must not have done it voluntarily. Someone must have forced you. How could you help an outsider deal with me if you love me so much?"
Xiao Yu: "...You are right."
Qin Yi turned around and glared at Lou Yan, gritting his teeth and said: "You are so despicable."
Lou Yan's face was expressionless: "Xiao Yu is my sister and I am her brother. How can she be considered helping an outsider when she helps me?"
Qin Yi: "You..."
"What's more, doesn't Mr. Qin think that he has gone too far?" Lou Yan frowned and said, "Zhen Zhen and I are in love, but you insist on beating us up? As the saying goes, you would rather destroy ten temples than destroy them.
How could you do such a thing to ruin a marriage?"
Qin Yi was speechless by Lou Yan, and after a while he said: "You are not suitable."
Lou Yan: "What's inappropriate?"
"It's just not suitable!" Qin Yi said in a deep voice, "You are a prince, you are so high up, what kind of woman do you want? In the future, you will definitely have countless women in the three palaces and six courtyards, and you will contribute to the royal family. There is no shortage of us.
Zhen one."
"Zhen Zhen grew up in a bandit's den. She is illiterate in writing and etiquette, and cannot reach the royal family. We only hope that she can marry an ordinary family, be a couple for the rest of her life, and live a simple and ordinary life."
Qin Yi took a deep breath and looked up at Lou Yan: "If you really want her to be well, you shouldn't let her go into the royal muddy waters."
Lou Yan looked at Qin Yi: "You are finally willing to tell the truth."
Qin Yi had a cold face and said nothing.
Lou Yan said in a deep voice: "None of what you are worried about will happen. I will not want another woman in this life. There will not be countless women in San Gong and Six Courtyards. I only want Qin Zhen. If she can survive, then
I will spread the branches and leaves for the royal family. If she cannot give birth or refuses to give birth, then I, Lou Yan, will have no heirs in this lifetime."
"She grew up in a bandit's den. I'm not much better than her. Her marrying me is not a high achievement. We will also want to be like an ordinary couple, a pair for the rest of our lives and live a normal life."
"As for what you said about the royal family's muddy water... it's too late. She has already stepped into the muddy water with one foot, and it is impossible to get out. However, I can guarantee that she will stay in this muddy water.
No harm was done.”
Lou Yan looked at Qin Yi steadily and said word by word: "I am the only one in this world who can do it."
Qin Yi looked at Lou Yan and said after a while: "That sounds nice, but who knows if you are just trying to trick us with your sweet words?"
Lou Yan: "If I say anything false, the sky will strike with lightning."
Xiao Yu on the side stretched out his hand to pull Qin Yi and whispered: "Husband, I don't think the third brother is lying."
After a pause, he leaned over again and said in a low voice: "The most important thing is that Zhen Zhen likes him. You are her brother, don't you know her character? Once you make a decision, even nine cows can't get it back.
.You are obstructing me in every possible way, just to make things difficult for Zhen Zhen.”
Qin Yi's expression changed, and he looked at Lou Yan after a while.
The two of them faced off silently for a moment, and Qin Yi finally spoke, saying, "No matter what, it's not polite for you to come in and out of Qin's house without any name or status."
Lou Yan was stunned, thought for a moment, and then suddenly looked at Qin Yi: "Are you sure?"
Qin Yi said nothing.
He glanced at Qin Zhen, who was having tea next to him, and thought to himself: It's going to rain and my mother wants to get married, so it's useless even if he doesn't agree.
Lou Yan immediately turned to look at Qin Zhen. The two looked at each other and smiled. Lou Yan immediately said, "I will enter the palace right away."
After a pause, he said to Qin Yi: "The imperial edict granting marriage will arrive at the Qin Mansion in half an hour."
Qin Yi was really stunned now. He watched Lou Yan run away and said in shock: "So fast?"
"I'm unhappy," Qin Zhen, who had been silent, finally spoke and said softly, "He has been hiding this imperial edict for more than two years."
