"The scholar is so brave. He is willing to do anything for love. This is true love. He should not die, right?" Yue'er was so moved that she shook her handkerchief and shed tears.

Qin Ye's nose felt sour:

"According to the general routine, he shouldn't die. If he does, wouldn't the book be over?"

Perhaps it was because of her pregnancy that she became sentimental, had a low tear point, and was emotionally fragile. A single passage moved her so much that she had never been like this before.

Yun Ying held the storybook in her hands and said:

"It is worth it to sacrifice your life for the one you love. Even if you die, you will live forever in that person's heart."

The three girls were deeply moved by this story.

Zong Zhengchen, who was working in the office, frowned: "..."

Forgive him for not being able to understand. It’s just a storybook. What’s there to cry about?

A princess marries a scholar?

Pure love?

Does the scholar have powerful martial arts skills?

These things are all fictitious and fabricated in the stories. The real situation is often much more cruel than the stories. In reality, which princess did not marry a prince or general? Which scholar was not born in poverty and studied hard all his life but could not make a name for himself?

Looking at the deeply moved Qin Ye, Zong Zhengchen broke her fantasy:

"The princess chose to be with the scholar, perhaps because the scholar is useful to her."

Leverage relationships.

Qin Ye heard this and immediately corrected: "It's love."

She raised her index finger, her expression serious: "It is true love that abandons identity, sets aside worldly matters, and runs towards each other in both directions."

"Born in a royal family, how can there be pure love?" Zong Zhengchen asked, "Since the princess loves the scholar so much, why doesn't she give up her status as a princess, give up power and wealth, and choose to elope with the scholar?"

"Since she is reluctant to give up, it means that the scholar is not that important in her heart."

Qin Ye choked up suddenly.

Well?

That seems to make sense?

No!

She would not allow Zong Zhengchen to defile this poor pair of mandarin ducks!

"The princess's mother, family, brothers and sisters are all in the palace. She can't give up resolutely. She is also in pain, but she can't deny her love for the scholar."

Zong Zhengchen laughed: "That doesn't make sense. Apart from being well-read and saving her once, what other merits does the scholar have that made the princess fall in love with him so much?"

He stood up, snatched the book from Yun Ying's hand, and flipped through a few pages casually.

Can't the folk tales be written more rigorously?

"If we talk about love, the princess's guards have saved her many times. Why doesn't the princess love the guards but prefer scholars? If we talk about culture, which rich young man or minister's son is not better than the scholar?"

"Is the princess blind to fall in love with this scholar?" He raised his eyebrows and asked critically.

Qin Ye felt that he was just a nitpicker.

Today, I just happened to have a fight with him.

"What do you know?" She snatched the notebook, turned to the previous page, and stuffed it into Yunying's hand.

He turned around and glanced at Zong Zhengchen, saying disdainfully:

"The princess fell in love with the scholar because he was 20 centimeters tall. You know nothing!"

Zong Zhengchen's face turned black: "???"

Twenty...twenty what?

Looking at Qin Ye, he sat down with his arms folded over his chest and his butt sticking out, looking so arrogant.

She meant, he didn't have twenty?

He doesn't understand?

Dislike him?

Damn it!

She relied on her pregnant belly and he didn't dare to deal with her, so she deliberately provoked him. He had to remember this. He would settle the score with her after she gave birth to the baby. She would be in trouble then!

Yue'er poked her head over and asked curiously, "Princess, what is 20 centimeters?"

"cough!"

Yun Ying coughed violently, pulled Yue'er's sleeve with her little hand, and whispered, "Sister Yue'er, I'll tell you about this later. Hurry up and dress up the princess. It's time to go to Prime Minister Qin's residence."

Yue'er scratched her head suspiciously.

Why does it feel like the prince understands, the princess understands, Yunying understands, but she is the only one who doesn't understand?

Is this some kind of charade?

What do you mean by 20 centimeters? Why doesn't she understand?
