"No, the Queen and I are of the same mind. On the one hand, I feel sorry for my daughter, but on the other hand, I don't want to bury such a talented person."

"The Crown Prince is about to come of age and choose a concubine. Does Shuyi have any suitable candidate?" Qin Hao pulled her into his arms and habitually let her sit on his lap.

Chen Shuyi thought about it. When she organized the flower-viewing banquet for Haoyue's coming-of-age celebration, she had noticed the daughters of the major families. There were a few girls who looked very good. It all depended on the prince's opinion. After all, this was the first wife who would accompany the prince throughout his life.

"Let's ask Xi'er first."

The prince is a calm and independent person, so they don't need to worry about his marriage.

Wang Yiheng had a low alcohol tolerance and he got drunk before the prince even filled his glass.

When Qin Xi mentioned the bright moon, Wang Yiheng looked at the moon in the sky like a fool and murmured.

The handsome young man's eyes were hazy with drunkenness, his brows were filled with deep affection and sorrow, and his magnetic voice echoed in the moonlight.

"The pear blossoms in the courtyard are bathed in the moonlight, the catkins in the pond are bathed in the breeze..."

"Plum blossoms in the snow, pear blossoms in the moon, always missing you..."

"Bright moon, bright moon, the sound of the Hujia makes me sad..."

"White clouds are dispersing on their own, whose house will the bright moon fall on..."

Qin Xi looked at Wang Yiheng and didn't mention Haoyue at all. He didn't dare to offend the eldest princess in the slightest, but every word he said was about her.

He was quite moved for a moment. Just as he was about to help Wang Yiheng back to the inner room of Wenhua Palace to rest, a figure in a red skirt suddenly appeared from the other side of the corridor.

"Haoyue? Why are you here?"

Haoyue looked at the prince brother, "Prince brother, can you please step aside first? I have something to say to him."

"Okay, call me if you have any problem." Qin Xi put Wang Yiheng down.

Haoyue sat at the desk, supporting her cheeks with her hands, looking at Wang Yiheng who was drunk and drowsy, and she chuckled softly.

"fool!"

Wang Yiheng raised his head as if aware of something, as if he were in a dream. He subconsciously raised his hand, "Little Moon..."

Haoyue held his hand and said angrily, "Huh, what little moon?"

"My moon." Wang Yiheng lowered his head and pressed his cheeks, which were hot due to drunkenness, against Haoyue's white little hand.

Haoyue's face suddenly turned red, "You are this princess's little fool."

…

A year later, the eldest princess married with great ceremony and was granted the princess's mansion to live with her husband. The husband's official position remained unchanged and he continued to serve in the court.

At night, Shen Shuyi held Qin Hao in his arms, gently laid on his chest, and said with a smile: “Mingzhi, I am deeply relieved to see that the emperor’s son has grown up.”

The prince already had a candidate for a princess before he came of age. She was Wei Liangyu, the legitimate daughter of General Wei. It was quite a strange fate.

Qin Xi went out of the capital to do business and was assassinated on the way. Wei Liangyu, who had just returned to the capital from the border, happened to meet him and came to his rescue.

He was stunned by this chivalrous woman who appeared out of nowhere. On the way back to the capital, he got to know her and fell in love with her even more. However, when he proposed to her, Wei Liangyu rejected him outright.

When Shen Shuyi and Qin Hao heard about this, they were shocked. Their two children were both extremely outstanding, but they were repeatedly rejected. Now they were happy.

It is not appropriate for elders to interfere in the affairs of the younger generation, so Chen Shuyi asked Haoyue to test the waters. Haoyue also liked Wei Liangyu's personality and was willing to help her out when the noble ladies of the royal capital gathered.

Wei Liangyu then said that she grew up in a military camp on the border and had a rough personality and was not suited to life in the harem. She was afraid that if she married into the harem she would be surrounded by jealousies among the concubines all day long, so she refused.

As Qin Xi's parents, Shen Shuyi and Qin Hao should step forward to address Wei Liangyu's concerns. They should first find Qin Xi and make sure that he will practice monogamy in the future, otherwise they should not go to Wei Liangyu.

As the future emperor, Shen Shuyi and Qin Hao did not force Qin Xi to be monogamous like them, but Qin Xi was influenced by his parents' love and harmonious family since he was a child, so he naturally agreed with this husband-wife system.

What's more, he really loves that little girl Wei Liangyu.

Wei Liangyu actually also liked the elegant prince, and their engagement was set when Qin Xi was just 20 years old.

As for Yan Shi and Sui Qing, one went to the army for training, and the other went to work as a patrol official in the local area. Naturally, Chen Shuyi and Qin Hao did not worry about their marriage affairs.

After the crown prince married the crown princess at the age of 20, Qin Hao abdicated and handed over power to Qin Xi. He then assisted in the government in the palace for three years as the emperor emeritus. After three years, he and Shen Shuyi retired to the Shanglin Palace and no longer interfered in state affairs.

The two of them lived a relaxed and happy life. Shen Shuyi found that this man was becoming more and more unscrupulously greedy. If she hadn't exchanged some body-building medicines from the system and mixed them into Qin Hao's food, she would have been worried that he would fall ill from overwork.

Qin Hao's health is not that bad, and is even much better than his peers. He gets up early every day to exercise, and he has not forgotten the habit he formed in the army.

Early in the morning, Shen Shuyi saw the man coming back from outside after working out, and saw beads of sweat on his upper body muscles, shining in the sun, and she snorted, "What is my husband doing?"

"Hurry up and put on your clothes."

Qin Hao looked at his wife in the room and saw that her cheeks were flushed. Her throat was tight and he came to her side, "Wear it after you take a bath."

"Why, we've been married for many years and you're still shy?"

Shen Shuyi pulled his hard muscles, "I suspect that your motives are not pure."

Qin Hao suppressed the urge to hug her and said, "Wait."

Shen Shuyi ran away in a hurry.

At night, Shen Shuyi was still caught by him and held in his arms.

Qin Hao stroked her cheek, his eyes full of reluctance.

"If I die before you..."

Shen Shuyi raised her hand to stroke the lines around his eyes, then leaned over and whispered in his ear.

"May I be like a star and you like the moon, shining brightly every night. I will always be by your side, whether in heaven or on earth."
