Chapter 365 I Like Him So Much

Huo Zheng looked at Chunzhi helplessly, his thin lips curled slightly, revealing a little smile.

"That's right." Chunzhi's hand fell down and placed on Huo Zheng's knee, naturally and intimately, "A brother should love his sister. If you don't know how to be a good brother, then..."

She originally wanted to say that she should learn more from Song Anlan, but Huo Zheng already knew that she was going to talk about that person, and his ink-black eyes stared at her without blinking.

Chunzhi immediately omitted the second half of the sentence and changed it to "Then learn from me. Just do what I do, and you will never go wrong."

Huo Zheng raised his eyebrows slightly, "Okay, I'll listen to you, Princess."

Chunzhi said "hmm" and looked at him with a teachable look, with a smile on her lips.

Seeing this, Huo Yanran immediately admired her sister-in-law even more from the bottom of her heart.

The only person in this world who can make Seventh Brother laugh is Chunzhi.

Even his father, the emperor, and his mother could not allow Huo Zheng to do this.

Even though Huo Yanran had already seen that Seventh Brother would always be unconsciously gentle in front of his sister-in-law, she still couldn't help but sigh in surprise when she saw this scene.

What is love in this world?

Even someone like Huo Zheng has a submissive side.

Not to mention Liu Yan, who was not familiar with King Chang'an.

All the officials in the court said that Prince Chang'an was decisive in killing. Some even said that he personally killed Prince Ning and his son, and was a cruel and ruthless person. If those gossipers saw this scene, they would probably be shocked.

The atmosphere in the carriage relaxed.

After a while, Chunzhi moved closer to Huo Yanran and said softly, "Yanran's hair is all messed up. Come, let me comb it for you again."

Huo Yanran then remembered that she had fallen and bumped into things while fleeing, her wedding dress was torn, and her phoenix crown had long been lost. Her hair was now disheveled, and she looked disheveled, which must have made her look extremely ugly.

Thinking of this, the little princess immediately turned around and faced Liu Yan, not wanting him to see her in this state again.

Liu Yan didn't understand why the princess's expression suddenly changed.

Huo Zheng knew what his sister was worried about. He snorted softly and laughed at Huo Yanran's girlish attitude.

Seeing Seventh Brother like this, Huo Yanran immediately called out, "Sister-in-law, look at him."

"Help me take out the bronze mirror and jade comb from the secret compartment." Chunzhi gently bumped Huo Zheng's leg with her leg and signaled him with her eyes not to bully her sister.

Huo Zheng raised his eyebrows slightly, reached out to open the secret compartment in the carriage, and took out the things Chunzhi wanted, holding a bronze mirror in one hand and a jade comb in the other.

Chunzhi took the jade comb from his hand and said very naturally, "Take the bronze mirror and hold it higher."

"Okay." Huo Zheng did as he was told.

Huo Yanran was quite flattered to have her seventh brother hold the bronze mirror to help her put on makeup. With her sister-in-law around, anything could happen.

"Raise it higher."

Huo Yanran began to become a little spoiled because of her favor.

Huo Zheng said, "How about asking Liu Tanhua to hold the bronze mirror for you?"

Liu Yan suddenly heard King Chang'an talking about him and immediately raised his head.

Huo Yanran said anxiously, "His hands are injured like that, how can Seventh Brother let him lift it?"

Huo Zheng said, "People say a daughter who's married off is like spilled water. Having someone else's sister is no different."

"Seventh Brother!" Huo Yanran couldn't stand Seventh Brother talking like that. She called him Seventh Brother, but looked at her sister-in-law for help.

"Alright." Chunzhi said as she combed Huo Yanran's hair, "Hurry up and raise the bronze mirror higher."

"Yes, Princess."

Huo Zheng naturally responded to Chunzhi's requests.

The carriage was bumpy, and Chunzhi was very careful when combing Huo Yanran's hair, combing from beginning to end, meticulously and gently.

Huo Yanran sat quietly, and her originally messy black hair was quickly straightened out.

There were four people in the carriage, one was the princess's brother, one was her sister-in-law, and only Liu Yan was a stranger.

Liu Tanhua has lived in a family with strict rules since he was a child. As far as he can remember, he has never seen the appearance of even his biological mother, let alone other women.

At this moment, he was sitting in this carriage, and when he saw Princess Chang'an dressing the princess, he couldn't look directly at her for a moment. However, the carriage was so small that he had nowhere else to look and could only face the wall.

Seeing this, Chunzhi couldn't help but laugh.

Huo Yanran looked at the bronze mirror and saw her sister-in-law smiling in the mirror. She couldn't help feeling a little strange. She raised her head and followed her sister-in-law's line of sight, and saw Liu Tanhua facing the wall with his back to her.

As a modest gentleman, he still remembered the distinction between men and women in such a situation. She was just combing her hair, not taking a bath or changing clothes. I don't know why he should avoid it?

But Huo Yanran just likes him.

Even Liu Yan couldn't bear to look directly at her while she was putting on makeup, so he turned his back to her and faced the wall. Huo Yanran still found it particularly cute.

The little princess looked at Liu Yan, and the corners of her lips unconsciously rose.

Maybe this is what it means to truly like someone. As long as you can see him, your heart can't stop being happy.

No matter what happens in the future, at this moment, the people in front of you are good.

Seeing this, Chunzhi couldn't help but lean over to Huo Yanran's ear and asked in a voice that only they could hear clearly: "If you like Liu Yan so much, why don't you take him back to Xizhou with us?"

Huo Yanran smiled and whispered, "I do like Liu Yan and want to be with him forever, but we absolutely cannot elope."

She couldn't bring shame to her mother and seventh brother, let the people in the wedding procession be implicated, nor could she let Liu Yan lose everything and hide in a remote place with her under an assumed name.

She has too many things she cannot do, so she would rather continue walking forward on this muddy road.

Before leaving the capital, Huo Yanran had already made many preparations. Compared to being a vase-like princess who was forced to marry a second or third time after her husband died, she wanted to try to be a truly useful person.

Even if she never has the chance to return to Daxing in this life, it would be nice to do something great in Beili.

People should love something in their heart, but it cannot be just love.

Huo Yanran is willing to go to Beili for marriage on behalf of Liu Yan, but she will not spend her whole life immersed in the regret of not being able to be with the one she loves. She will move forward and do many things to make her life shine with the light and heat it deserves.

If thousands of years later, her name and Liu Yan's name were recorded on the same page of a history book, it would be considered their marriage certificate.

For thousands of years, forever.

What's more, now that her seventh brother and sister-in-law have come to Beili, Huo Yanran feels that she will not be bullied after she goes to the Beili Royal Court. With such protection from her closest relatives, her life will be much better than Ye Ninglan's.

Huo Yanran didn't say these words out loud, but Chunzhi understood a lot from her eyes.

Being born into a royal family is both a blessing and a misfortune.

Those days of fine clothes and delicious food, with thousands of people kneeling to you, will one day be repaid with the things you are reluctant to give up.

Chunzhi was very skillful and quickly combed Huo Yanran's hair and put a golden hairpin on her.

They both looked at the bronze mirror at the same time, Huo Yanran had a smile on her face, and Chunzhi's face was full of pity.

After a long while, Chunzhi wanted to say something to Yanran, but the speeding carriage suddenly stopped. Someone blocked the road ahead and shouted, "Who is traveling so fast at this time of night? Get off the horse immediately!"
