The sun is getting lower and the sun is setting in the west.
In the setting sun, the two carriages slowly stopped and continued to move forward.
Chu Lan slowly helped the man out of the carriage, with indescribable caution in his eyes.
In another carriage, Shui Lan saw such a scene just as he got out of the carriage.
"If you can't stand it, don't watch it anymore." Wei Tunan passed by her, looked at her dumbfounded look, and couldn't help but shake his head.
She is also a poor girl trapped in love, but unfortunately, she falls in love with someone she shouldn't fall in love with.
After saying that, he patted the shoulder of Mu Qing, who was standing aside, as if his mouth had been sawed since he got off the carriage, and his eyes became a little more meaningful.
Although Zhang Qingjiu was protected in Chu Lan's arms, how could she not feel that Ruruo substance's gaze directed at her?
Zhang Qingjiu's eyes flashed and he pushed Chu Lan's arm away.
"Ah Jiu." Chu Lan frowned, and his eyes were a little deeper.
With one look, he knew what the person in front of him was going to do.
After calming the nervous man, Zhang Qingjiu smiled and said: "It's okay, I'll just talk to her for a while, you trust me."
After saying that, Zhang Qingjiu turned around and walked in the direction of the carriage behind him.
Chu Lan looked at that figure, her dark eyes a little colder.
Shui Lan looked at the person walking towards her and pursed her lips. Just as she was about to speak, she met the warning look coming from behind Zhang Qingjiu. She was suddenly startled and lowered her head subconsciously.
Zhang Qingjiu paused for a moment and looked back at someone helplessly.
After he withdrew his oppressive eyes, Zhang Qingjiu walked up to Shui Lan again, smiled slightly and said, "I want to watch the sunset. Are you willing to walk with me?"
Shui Lan's body trembled, and she raised her head suddenly, her eyes full of disbelief, "Watching the sunset with you?"
"Yeah, how's it going?" The corners of Zhang Qingjiu's mouth became gentler.
"I thought you..." Shui Lan gritted his teeth, finally showing a bit of embarrassment on his face.
She thought this person came here to show off his power.
"Let's go, we've been riding in a carriage all day and it's rare to get off." Unexpectedly, Zhang Qingjiu didn't seem to see the surprise in her eyes and continued walking towards the trail ahead.
But the pace was obviously a bit slower than before.
Shui Lan narrowed her eyes, but finally followed her.
The two people walked on the path one behind the other. The setting sun in front of them was like oranges in late autumn, golden and brilliant. Their shadows stretched into a long afterglow behind them.
After walking for a while, until the figure of the person behind him became blurred, Zhang Qingjiu slowly stopped and turned to look at Shui Lan: "Don't be nervous, I asked you to come, not to drive you away."
Shui Lan pursed her lips and said, "What on earth do you want to say?"
Although the tone is still a bit rude, it is no longer as confrontational as in the past.
"When Chu Lan and I get married, you should actually come back and live in the capital." Looking at the awkward look of the woman in front of him, Zhang Qingjiu smiled calmly.
Hearing these words, Shui Lan's eyes flashed with disbelief at first, but soon his expression turned sharp, "If you are..."
"Don't worry, if I wanted to tell Chu Lan, I would have told him as early as that day." Zhang Qingjiu waved her hand. She knew what Shui Lan was worried about. As a secret guard, she did not leave her post without permission from her master.
His crime deserves to be punished.
After a pause, Zhang Qingjiu continued: "In other words, if you wanted to ruin my wedding with him that day, you would have done it at that time."
This is why she took the initiative to talk to Shui Lan.
"That's because I'm worried that if I do something, it will damage the majesty of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the royal family. After all, I'm not like some people who disappear on the day of engagement and make His Highness laugh." His aqua blue eyes flashed, lightly
He snorted softly.
"Yes." Regarding the fact that she did not appear when she was engaged, Zhang Qingjiu happily accepted it. This was a fact and she could not refute it. "Just think of it as the reasons you just said, but you can also see that he only has me in his heart."
, and everyone in the world knows that Chu Lan only wants to have a wife like me."
As soon as Zhang Qingjiu said these words, Shui Lan fell silent for an instant.
Because she remembered the scene she saw during the wedding.
The graceful Crown Prince walked up to the person step by step and took her into the carriage.
Everyone in the world praises His Royal Highness for his great love and righteousness.
Only she understood how it felt for the man she once worshiped on the altar to come down to earth for another woman.
"If you don't say anything, I will assume that you agree." Zhang Qingjiu narrowed his eyes and his tone became a little deeper.
She would bring Shui Lan out, not to reminisce about old times.
After going to the Witch Clan, she faced many hardships, and she had to nip certain uncertain factors in the cradle.
"In addition, I have some news to tell you." Touching his belly, Zhang Qingjiu's lips curved slightly, "I'm pregnant, twins."
"Really?" Shui Lan suddenly raised her head, her eyes filled with joy. She could no longer care about her thoughts when she followed him, and she had made up her mind to just let it go no matter what she said.
"Yes." Zhang Qingjiu took a step forward.
Shui Lan backed away subconsciously.
Zhang Qingjiu stepped forward again, quickly grabbed Shui Lan's wrist, and slowly placed it against his lower abdomen.
Shui Lan's eyes widened, and in the palm of her hand, there was a slightly protruding belly, and inside that...
Feeling the sudden feeling of satisfaction in her heart, Shui Lan finally couldn't help but shed tears, "Our Highness, we have a child."
These tears are for tears of joy, but also for rebirth after disaster.
She knew that from now on, she would never have any inappropriate thoughts again.
After a while, Shui Lan took back her hand and said, "Don't worry, I won't miss things that don't belong to me."
"I know." Zhang Qingjiu nodded, his eyes a little softer.
She knew that Shui Lan was not a person who didn't know right from wrong. He was just obsessed with it before. How could a person trained by the Prince's Palace not have the wisdom to break through shackles?
"I will take you well along the way. You must...must take good care of our Highness's children." Shui Lan took a deep breath, raised his head to look at the full moon in the sky, and wiped it with his hands.
Look at the corners of your eyes.
"Don't worry, I can." Zhang Qingjiu smiled slightly and nodded.
The mountain breeze blows, and the woman's green hair flutters, seeming to dissipate the countless melancholy. From now on, the clouds are clear, the sky is blue, the wind is gentle and the sun is beautiful.
But, what no one expected was this.
Under the leadership of Shui Lan, just as they were about to enter the so-called hinterland - the Wu tribe, the two carriages unexpectedly fell into an unspeakable and strange road.
