The fifth prince of the Great Qi Kingdom, Yun Yan and Yun Xiuye, married a woman of unknown identity and made her his princess.

According to general rules, the prince's wife should be chosen by the empress. The emperor would issue an edict, and the six rituals would be performed, and the marriage would be considered completed.

But our Fifth Prince is different. He brought back a girl from somewhere, got married in his house, and then announced that she was the mistress of his courtyard.

It is said that the emperor was so angry that he almost fainted after hearing this. He was furious and issued an imperial decree to confine the fifth prince, who was originally going to be sent to the northern battlefield to make merit, to house arrest for half a year.

The opportunity to go to the battlefield was something the Third Prince had been requesting for several months.

When Yun Jin heard this, he was so angry that he almost threw his younger brother to his older cousin and had him hung up and beaten.

Unfortunately, my eldest cousin is already on the battlefield in the north, and this stupid younger brother probably won’t have the chance to go there.

There were also rumors that the queen was over eight feet tall, and everyone speculated that the Fifth Prince had married a man.

"You, you, you, take your legs away! Lu Qing, don't bring your military style here with you!" Yun Yan got up in the middle of the night and moved the long legs that were resting on him aside.

"It's so noisy... Didn't you tell me not to call me Lu Qing?" The person next to him was half asleep and rubbing his eyes.

It is difficult to tell male from female, whether by voice or appearance.

But Yun Yan was sure that this was a girl!

No, she's his wife now!

"You should sleep well. I haven't had a good night's sleep since I got married." Yun Yan didn't answer Lu Qing. He turned over, wrapped his head with the quilt, and turned his back to Lu Qing.

Lu Qing unceremoniously used his hands and feet to wrap around Yun Yan, and held him securely from behind. Yun Yan then heard the sound of even breathing coming from behind his ears.

This guy fell asleep again!

Yun Yan was under house arrest, and the good job in the north was snatched away by the second-in-command Yun Yi.

On the day when the Second Prince went to war, Yun Yan stood under the huge Luan tree in the yard and sighed.

"Why, are you unwilling?"

Lu Qing reached out and caught a fruit that had fallen from the tree. It was a beautiful autumn day, and a layer of reddish-brown leaves had grown on the green branches, layer upon layer, which looked very beautiful.

"I'm not willing to give up," Yun Yan reached out and took the fruit from Lu Qing's hand. He tore open the outer skin and the seeds inside scattered to the ground. "But saving your life is more important."

"You're quite open-minded." Lu Qing grinned.

"What about you?" Yun Yan asked.

"Me what?"

"You're not willing to marry me?"

Lu Qing was silent for a moment, then said, "Why should I be unwilling? I'm already considered a dead man."

"I've caused you trouble."

The Fifth Prince was about to head north, and General Lu was leading the way with provisions. On the way, he was ambushed from all sides, and General Lu was killed in battle.

This is the version known to passers-by.

But Yun Yan knew in his heart that it was because he was on good terms with the heirs of the two major military families of the current dynasty, the Ye family and the Lu family, that he had offended some people.

Ye Heng couldn't afford to offend him, so he started with Lu Qing of the Lu family.

"What's the point of being involved? I've been a man for twenty years, fighting in the war for five. Now I can just sit in your courtyard and drink tea, look at the flowers, and be happy."

Yun Yan looked at Lu Qing deeply and said, "Do you really think so?"

"What else?"

"You should be a general galloping freely on the battlefield." Yun Yan was serious for once and looked at Lu Qing intently.

Lu Qing burst out laughing and said, "You are hallucinating because you have seen me wearing armor so many times, right?"

That was two years ago, when Yun Yan and Lu Qing met for the first time.

Yun Yan was walking down the street, fanning himself, when he saw Lu Qing, holding a silver spear, coming to the rescue.

Lu Qingsheng was so good that the rescued girl was instantly obsessed with him and wanted to pledge herself to him in words and deeds.

Yun Yan found Lu Qing's bewildered look amusing. He closed his fan and used the tip of it to separate the two of them. He leaned over and said with a smile, "Miss, please don't harm my brother. He has a Hedong Lion in his family. I'm afraid he and you are not destined to be together."

Lu Qing didn't know where Yun Yan came from, but in order to solve the problem, he nodded cooperatively: "That's right."

The girl was ashamed and angry. She turned around and ran away with a red face, and her ears were red.

"General Lu owes me a favor today." Yun Yan waved his fan and smiled proudly.

"Do you recognize me?"

"Not only do I recognize you, I also know..." Yun Yan whispered something in Lu Qing's ear.

"You!" Lu Qing weighed the silver gun in his hand, wanting to kill him to silence him.

"I am a descendant of the royal family. General Lu, please show some mercy! As long as you help me, I promise that I won't let anyone else know about this."

Fortunately, Yun Yan had some basic kung fu skills, so he struggled to jump away and took off the jade token from his body.

Seeing that Lu Qing didn't move, Yun Yan reached out and embraced him: "Brother Lu, let's go to Huiwei Tower to discuss in detail."

A year ago, the two of them worked together for the first time.

The Fifth Prince and General Lu were chasing after the Japanese pirates. The pirates were cunning, so the two of them and their men jumped off a cliff and were trapped in the mountains.

"Why did you recognize me as a woman the first time I saw you?" Lu Qing caught a pheasant and started a fire by himself. Through the flickering flames, he looked at His Highness Yun Yan, who was not doing anything.

"It cannot be said, it cannot be said." Yun Yan shook his hand in a mysterious tone.

"You sent someone to investigate me before?"

"It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding," Yun Yan pointed to his head, "Lean here."

Lu Qing gave Yun Jin a blank look, without correcting him or asking any more questions.

"Don't sit so far away, come closer and keep warm." Yun Yan felt that he should show his manliness and keep Lu Qing warm.

"Men and women should not touch each other."
