Chapter 62

Tang Mitang's first reaction was, how could Zhou Xuanqing know the ending of "The King's Ascension"? Or did he dream it?

Zhou Erlan's face turned pale. He... two years ago... and Cheng Zhixuan did want to rebel, but he had never thought of killing the imperial sister.

"Qingqing, dreams are always the opposite. How could the emperor kill you?" Tang Mitang patted Zhou Xuanqing's back comfortingly and spoke softly in her ear. Even if she felt happy about someone's misfortune, she couldn't add fuel to the fire. She still had to persuade him, after all, Zhou Erlan was her brother-in-law.

Zhou Erlan sat there, his whole body stiff. The imperial sister...didn't like him anymore...

"Well... Tang Mitang, I want to go out and play..." After Zhou Xuanqing said that, he pulled Tang Mitang out.

The two of them didn't care what the people behind them thought. They held hands and walked out of the princess's mansion, strolling on the street.

Tang Mitang bought Zhou Xuanqing a lot of fun things to make her happy.

"Qingqing, how old are you this year?"

"Thirteen years old~"

"Then do you know who you are?"

"Princess of the Zhou Dynasty."

Tang Mitang nodded and took her to a small stall to order a bowl of wontons. The Zhou Dynasty, also known as the dynasty of the previous emperor and empress, was renamed the Great Zhou after Zhou Xuanqing ascended to the throne.

I am only thirteen years old at heart, no wonder I was so scared when I dreamed that my younger brother wanted to kill me.

"Qingqing, your memory hasn't returned yet. Do you want to know what you have forgotten?" Tang Mitang asked, supporting his head with a cunning look in his eyes.

"I want to," Zhou Xuanqing said, and the wontons arrived. The waiter looked at the two of them carefully and walked back to the counter cautiously.

Isn't this the former emperor Zhou Xuanqing? And Princess Xingyue.

Tang Mitang grinned, handed her the chopsticks and said, "Eat first, I'll tell you slowly."

Zhou Xuanqing nodded. Tang Mitang had only seen that well-behaved look in her dreams, and she found it adorable no matter how she looked at it.

If you think someone is cute no matter what they do, it must be love. She now thinks that no matter what Zhou Xuanqing does, he is very cute~

"Your actual name is Zhou Xuanqing, and you are already twenty-two years old. You ascended the throne at the age of thirteen. When you were about to turn twentieth, you and I promised to be together for life. Here, this is the ring you gave me. Do you know the meaning of wearing a ring?" Tang Mitang said this with curved eyebrows and eyes full of calculation.

Zhou Xuanqing had just stuffed his wontons into his mouth when he heard her question. He looked at her with his cheeks resting and shook his head. But his eyes were full of surprise. So he and she had made a lifelong agreement?

"Hehe means to be bound to each other, to only give to one person in a lifetime, to only love one person in a lifetime, loyal and romantic, representing eternal love."

"Really?" Zhou Xuanqing asked with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"Of course! Many newlyweds are like this!" Tang Mitang nodded vigorously and raised her hand to point at the couple over there. They had a couple in their hands.

Zhou Xuanqing nodded and said seriously, "Then I have ten fingers. Can I tie them to ten people?"

"Uh..." Even though Tang Mitang was knowledgeable and experienced, Zhou Xuanqing's question left her speechless. What's going on? Is a thirteen-year-old so wild? Ah Xi!

He was only thinking about how to fool people, but forgot that Lu Zehua said Zhou Xuanqing had no memory. How could he have the memory of being thirteen years old now? Tang Mitang quickly waved her hands.

"Of course not. It can only be given to one person in a lifetime! And it can only be worn on the ring finger!" Tang Mitang said with a firm face. How could her Qingqing have such a dangerous idea? It must be stopped! Must!

Zhou Xuanqing nodded in disappointment and continued to fish for wontons. This was the person she had chosen, so naturally one was enough.

Tang Mitang sighed and continued, "Two years ago, you abdicated the throne, and then fought a fierce battle with the people who wanted to kill your brother, Zhou Erlan. In the end, both of you were injured. You killed him, but you also disappeared..."

Tang Mitang's eyes darkened. Thinking of the two years Zhou Xuanqing had been missing, lying in bed, and how she hadn't found her yet, she felt deeply distressed and guilty. Just as she was about to sigh, a wonton appeared in front of her.

"Try it, it's not bad." Zhou Xuanqing picked up the wontons with chopsticks and said with a smile while looking at Tang Mitang.

Tang Mitang nodded and ate with her chopsticks. Then Zhou Xuanqing continued eating without changing chopsticks, just like before, with a gentle smile on his face.

Tang Mitang didn't say anything else. He just watched her unable to finish her meal. He took the bowl in front of her and finished five wontons in a few bites before taking her back to the princess's mansion.

Zhou Xuanqing walked a few steps and stopped, looking at Tang Mitang with his eyes rolling around, and said aggrievedly: "I'm so tired~"

Seeing that she was a little tired, Tang Mitang silently bent his knees and let her lie on his back.

Zhou Xuanqing happily rushed over, put his arms around her neck, smelled the fragrance of her hair, closed his eyes with peace of mind, and said softly: "You are the one I chose, I want to hold you to sleep tonight..."

Tang Mitang heard her mumbling, listened carefully, and couldn't help laughing. He carried her on his back and walked slowly on the street. Under the light, she suddenly felt an unprecedented happiness. She wished that with the person on her back, she would finally not be alone in this world.

No matter how long the street is, it will eventually come to an end. Tang Mitang was standing at the door and saw Zhou Erlan standing under the lamp waiting for them. Seeing that Zhou Xuanqing had fallen asleep, she wanted to come over and hug her, but she stopped half a meter away and didn't dare to move forward.

The emperor doesn't like him being so close to her...

Tang Mitang understood the meaning of his stopping, so she didn't say anything more and silently carried Zhou Xuanqing back to the room to rest.

She couldn't persuade Zhou Erlan. If she wanted to take Qingqing away, where would she go to cry? She should go back to her room, take off her clothes and go to bed!

Tang Mitang left quickly, only breathing a sigh of relief the moment she closed the door. She touched Zhou Xuanqing's cold face and quickly put her on the bed and covered her with a quilt. It seemed that she needed to turn on the ground heating soon, as Qingqing's health was too poor. She would arrange it tomorrow.

Seeing Tang Mitang close the door, Zhou Erlan didn't dare to speak out to stop her, fearing that she would disturb Zhou Xuanqing. She told Chang Xi to keep watch and left with a sigh. How could she earn the forgiveness of her sister?

Tang Mitang watched Zhou Erlan leave before she climbed onto the bed and hugged Zhou Xuanqing with peace of mind. She had imagined this moment so many times over the past two years, and now she finally got to hold him in person...

Zhou Xuanqing felt the heat source, rubbed his face against Tang Mitang's neck, and fell asleep.

Tang Mitang kept closing her eyes and looking at the back of Zhou Xuanqing's head, touching her slender waist, listening to her shallow breathing. Her heart was filled with Zhou Xuanqing lying beside her.
