Chapter 002, Just Playing

"What do you mean? Of course it means literally."

I took off his hand and smiled sarcastically, "Your Highness, Prince Rong, is it possible that after we divorce, I still want to protect you like a jade?"

"Mingzhen, I..." Zhao Yanqing seemed to want to say something, paused, and finally closed her lips.

After staring at me deeply for a moment, that clear face returned to its usual gentleness.

As if nothing had happened before, Zhao Yanqing walked to the stove again, rolled up his sleeves and took the barrel out of the pot, then simply tidied up the room, and finally took the cloth he brought into the back room and put it away.

.

Then, Zhao Yanqing slowly walked to my side again.

While he sat me down, he took out a bunch of keys from his arms and handed them to me, saying, "Mingzhen, I have a house in Qingyang County. You can move there tomorrow."

"And..." He looked at my legs, as if he was afraid of hurting my self-esteem. He paused for a moment before continuing, "Mingzhen, your legs must be treated. You can't be limping like this for the rest of your life. I'm going to go there tomorrow.

I’m on a trip to the county town, and I happen to know a miracle doctor in the city. You can go with me tomorrow morning."

Zhao Yanqing wants to treat my leg?

It's really ridiculous. It was clearly treatable in the past, but he drags me down to become a cripple. Now he's just pretending. He just wants to make me feel grateful, rekindle my old relationship, and cooperate with him in a drama of reunion.

In his eyes, am I that stupid?

I looked at his Qingjun face sarcastically and couldn't help but laugh, "Zhao Yanqing, do you think that as long as you pretend to be nice to me, I will be as devoted to you as I was before, and then be stupidly used by you?"

"Let me tell you Zhao Yanqing, I will never cooperate with you in any love drama of reunion! If you have to stay here, I will kill you with a knife at night!"

"Do you dare?" I sounded stern and was threatening Zhao Yanqing fiercely, but he stuffed the key into the cloth bag on my waist, curved his beautiful eyes with a smile, nodded lightly, and rubbed my hair.

Ying He said, "Mingzhen, you are right. I treat you well just to make you cooperate with me. Now that you understand it, I have nothing to hide."

"If you honestly accompany me through this scene, I will leave after the case is over. You can assign me however you want, but if you are disobedient..."

Zhao Yanqing raised his lips, leaned down and came closer to me, whispering in my ear with his warm breath, "Azhen, believe it or not, within three days, the entire Qingyang County will know that you have been involved in the chaos."

Abandon, you tried to seduce the Lord of Zhaohe County in order to gain favor, but you ended up being crippled and the news spread throughout Qingyang County."

"You said, when your reputation is bad, will you have a place here? If you leave Qingyang County, where can you go?"

"You insist on returning to Qingyang County with me and Li, don't you just want to save your life first, there will always be a chance to seek revenge from me."

"But if I don't want you to live now, how can you take revenge on me?"

He pursed his lips, smiled, and patted my shoulder gently.

I never expected that Zhao Yanqing, who has always been gentle and gentle, would threaten people, but he succeeded in everything.

I was shocked and angry for a moment, and he was so angry that I couldn't speak.

Seeing that I didn't retort, Zhao Yanqing showed a trace of satisfaction in his eyes, smiled lightly, and returned to his usual gentle appearance. He stretched out his hand to touch my hair and said softly, "Okay, go inside and rest first, and do your best."

I’ll call you for dinner.”

Zhao Yanqing didn't give me a chance to refuse, so he got up and lit the stove fire again, took a wooden basin and washed the pork, and finally put it into the hot pot to get water.

He didn't know how to cook originally. He learned these things from Aunt Zhang when he lost his memory five years ago.

After not doing anything for several years, Zhao Yanqing was not unfamiliar with it. Within half an hour, he cooked a pot of Dongpo pork with moderate fatness and leanness.

Cook some more rice, heat up the dumplings that Aunt Zhang brought over, add vinegar, cook a pot of vegetable soup, borrow a small table from Aunt Zhang's house, and it's a New Year's Eve dinner.

At night, Zhao Yanqing made a bed in front of my bed with hay and torn cotton wool.

One night at dawn, when I woke up, Zhao Yanqing had disappeared, and the hay beside the bed had been cleared away.

Where Zhao Yanqing lay down last night, there was a pair of lake-blue Sichuan embroidered shoes, with a pair of brocade socks stuffed inside the shoes. I had seen shoes and socks of this color and style at the Showa County Lord.

So? This was prepared for him by the Showa County Lord.

Haha, this vicious couple really tried their best to take advantage of me.

I sneered in my heart, stood up slowly, walked out of the back room with bare feet, and threw the pair of embroidered shoes into the burning fire.

Accompanied by the smell of burnt Shu brocade, Zhao Yanqing walked in from outside the house at some point.

Today he changed into dark brocade clothes, and his hair was simply tied up with an orchid hosta, which made his already cold facial features even colder.

Seeing me standing barefoot in front of the stove, he frowned slightly and immediately realized something, put down the bucket in his hand and walked towards me.

When he saw the half-burnt embroidered shoes in the stove, Zhao Yanqing's face sank.

But in the end, he didn't say anything. He just went into the house, took out my old shoes, threw them at my feet, and said calmly, "Put them on, don't catch a cold."

His tone was calm, and there was no hint of displeasure in his clear and pleasant voice.

After speaking, Zhao Yanqing put out the fire in the stove again, poured a ladle of boiling water into the copper basin, mixed it with the cold water he had just fetched, soaked the handkerchief and handed it to me, and then went to the back room to pack his luggage.

Zhao Yanqing moved very quickly. By the time I finished washing, he had almost finished cleaning up.

I was broke and had nothing to take care of, so I simply took a few clothes to change my clothes, said goodbye to Aunt Zhang, and followed Zhao Yanqing to the carriage.

Four years later, when I sat in this luxurious carriage that symbolized imperial power, I no longer had the joy I had before, nor the timidity I felt when I first entered Kyoto. I just felt sick, sick of everything about Zhao Yanqing.

Perhaps the disgust in my eyes was too obvious, which aroused Zhao Yanqing's displeasure. He called me softly and reminded me in a gentle voice, "Azhen, there are no loving couples who have reunited with a straight face like you."

"Then what does His Highness Prince Rong want from me?" I looked at him coldly and smiled sarcastically, "It was just a show. Could it be that His Highness really wants to reunite with me?"

"The Lord of Showa County will probably commit suicide again by then."

"Azhen, those shoes and socks are not prepared by the Lord of Showa County." Before I finished my mocking words, Zhao Yanqing suddenly looked at me deeply and said in an explaining tone, "She and I... are not married."
