Chapter 43: Life is hopeless

But Qi Yue continued, "You will be punished to come and pick me up and take me back to the Princess's Mansion tomorrow!"

Gu Qingyu: ???

Shao Siyan smiled, clasped her hands tighter, and deliberately raised them to his lips, placing a kiss on them. "Yes, Princess, I accept the punishment."

Gu Qingyu: ???

The two of them walked intimately towards the Moon Palace entrance, leaving Gu Qingyu alone and disheveled behind.

Qi Yue muttered again: "It's not bad to wear the imperial physician's uniform occasionally..."

Ever since Gu Qingyu saw her and Murong Heli sleeping on the same bed last time, he was quite accepting of their intimacy this time.

He kept comforting himself that as long as he worked hard to win the princess' heart, he would be able to marry her in style.

As for those little gadgets outside, they were just the princess's momentary entertainment and he would never be able to get them.

When Qi Yue came back after sending the people away, Gu Qingyu was still standing there stupidly waiting for her.

Qi Yue: "Let's talk inside the hall."

He followed her obediently like a big Husky and entered the main hall.

Qi Yue liked Gu Qingyu from beginning to end, but this character was just like the original owner, a cannon fodder with no good ending.

Gu Qingyu is even more miserable. All the loyal and brave members of his family sacrificed their lives for the country and died on the battlefield. Now he and the elderly Madam Gu are the only ones left in the entire marquisate.

No matter in the original book or in Qi Yue's dream, he did not have a good ending. Whether he was a young Gu Qingyu or a young man, he had a sincere heart towards the original owner.

As a person who traveled through a book, she did not want to play tricks on such a wonderful person. She only wanted to marginalize him so that he could have a peaceful and smooth life.

Qi Yue walked to the main couch and sat down, propping up her chin and looking at him, saying lazily: "Sit down, what do you want to see me for?"

Gu Qingyu did not sit down, but slightly leaned towards Qi Yue, with a little nervousness in his voice: "Princess, look, does the hair crown you gave me match my... this dress very well?"

Qi Yue looked at him. Gu Qingyu was about the same height as Yi Bai, but a little thinner.

At this moment, he looked nervous and embarrassed, fearing that he was too tall and would affect Qi Yue's ability to see the hair crown.

He bent over and lowered his head to show her, which looked quite funny.

Qi Yue nodded: "It is indeed suitable."

He couldn't help but feel happy when he got the response, and a blush appeared on his face, but because it was a healthy wheat color, it was not obvious.

Gu Qingyu: "Princess, I understand what you mean, and I am willing to marry you..."

Qi Yue interrupted him: "Wait, what are you imagining?"

I was afraid that he didn't understand what I meant by brain supplement, so I repeated it in a different way: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Gu Qingyu was stunned, with a look of astonishment on his face, "...Princess, isn't this hair crown a token of love that you gave me?"

Qi Yue: "This is the coming-of-age gift I gave you."

Gu Qingyu felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on him. Yes, when he had his coming-of-age ceremony, Qi Yue had already married Jiang Sheng and had lost contact with him...

He was unwilling to give up and asked: "Then why was the princess so kind to me before, and even took care of me when I was sick all night?"

Qi Yue: "Because of my royal brother's will, because my royal brother cares about you very much."

Qi Yue's inner thoughts: I'm sorry, brother, you just have to take the blame. Anyway, I didn't lie. It was indeed you who asked Xun'an to convey the words.

After hearing this, Gu Qingyu's face lost all color and his body seemed to be shaky.

Qi Yue said seriously, "Gu Qingyu, I will never marry again in this life. I know your feelings, but I can't give you the response you want, and I can't let down the loyal and brave souls of the Yong'an Marquis Mansion. You should find another woman to live a stable life with."

"This palace and you have no destiny."

The words stung him so much, and the lack of fate was like a sword stabbing into his heart, causing him to turn red with pain.

Gu Qingyu clenched his fists so tightly that even his already round nails were deeply embedded in the flesh.

His voice was trembling, full of pain: "Why? Why can Murong Heli do it? Even that crappy imperial physician can do it? Why can the princess be so cruel to me?"

Gu Qingyu walked up to her and grabbed her shoulders, but he didn't dare to hurt her.

He looked into her eyes with red eyes: "Princess, why can't you... have mercy on me for once? I really don't want to miss you again..."

Seeing him like this, Qi Yue felt a little bitter in her heart, but she still said cruelly: "You have to know that I will not marry you, nor anyone else."

Gu Qingyu bit his lip, his eyes full of grievance, "Then I can marry the princess, it's okay..."

Qi Yue's forehead twitched, with some disbelief in his eyes, and he realized once again that his novel was indeed a little too bold.

"Even if you are willing, your grandmother won't! Besides, I can't just stay with you."

Gu Qingyu seemed to have only heard the first half of the sentence, and said with a hint of surprise: "Princess, do you mean that as long as my grandmother agrees, you will be willing?"

Without waiting for Qi Yue to answer, Gu Qingyu boldly kissed Qi Yue on the cheek, "Princess, wait for your minister!"

Qi Yue was stunned for a moment, then he just ran away, feeling proud in his heart as he ran.

That crappy imperial physician could only kiss the princess's hands, but he kissed her face and the princess didn't refuse. He still wins the princess's heart more!

Qi Yue was so confused that she didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She had never seen anyone so stubborn.

But after thinking about it, she decided to let him go. If she continued to refuse, he might kneel down and cry in front of her.

In the past two days, Qi Yue's dowry private storehouse in the Moon Palace has been sent to the princess's mansion one after another.

When Concubine De and Concubine Xian learned that she would leave the palace the next day, one hugged her hands and almost cried, and the other was so happy that she almost laughed to death.

Then, Concubine Xian grabbed Qiu Shui impatiently and asked her if she had arranged everything.

Qiu Shui trembled and advised: "Madam, I have already made arrangements, but if we start right after leaving the palace... won't it be too obvious?"

Concubine Xian calmed down and thought that it made sense.

There was a gleam of resentment in her eyes, and she said in a grim tone: "Then let her live freely for a little longer..."

In the evening, Murong Heli woke up and couldn't see Qi Yue, so he refused to take the medicine.

He Xiang brought someone to bring a large bowl of medicine with a strong bitter smell. She looked at him with a smile and relayed Qi Yue's words to him.

"Master Murong, the princess said that if you continue to make trouble and refuse to take your medicine or eat properly, you won't have to go back to the princess's mansion with me tomorrow."

Murong Heli was so angry that his teeth were itching, but he still suppressed his anger and picked up the medicine to drink.

Just the first sip was so bitter that he almost vomited bile.

He Xiang said faintly, "The princess said that if you spit out a mouthful of medicine, you don't have to follow me to the princess's mansion."

After drinking a large bowl of medicine, Murong Heli collapsed on the couch with no desire to live, with only one thought in his mind.
