It seems that she, the Princess Changle, has failed somewhat and no one believes her when she tells others about it.
"You're definitely not."
The cup in his hand was suddenly bumped by Liu Yanqiu's cup. He drank the wine in one gulp. Under the moonlight, he was clearly wearing a plain dress, but he had a unique beauty.
"Haven't you heard about it in the capital? Princess Changle is just a fool, spoiled by Prince Duan to the point of losing her way."
"In the capital, he chases after that General Chu Zhiyao every day, and even threatens Prince Duan with death every day. What else can you say but a fool?"
"Anyway, I just can't stand this kind of person. This kind of rumor has spread all the way to Luofo Town. How good can her reputation be in the capital?"
As for Princess Changle, she felt that Liu Yanqiu was having a stomachache. She didn't even know him, but he was hostile to her.
But when you think about it, you're already a disgrace to Jin and Chu. This is probably how most people react when they hear of your reputation.
She raised her eyebrows
"Then why do you think I am not?"
This made Liu Yanqiu blush and turned his face away.
"It's just a feeling..."
"It's just that I feel... you're not... you're just different! I just think you're great..."
Liu Yanqiu's heart skipped a beat when he said this subconsciously. Gu Qingsheng was also a little surprised and opened his mouth slightly.
Her reaction made Liu Yanqiu even more flustered. He waved his hands around, stammered, and spilled some of the wine in his hand.
"What I mean is, you're not a fool like Princess Changle!"
"Look, look, you've been polite to others all day long. You didn't show any disdain and just sat by the wall with me to eat roast chicken..."
"Also, you don't get angry when others say things about you, even when those bastards from the Hoenn Restaurant say things about you... So you're not at all like... you're not like the idiot Princess Changle..."
"Let's take an example. If it were Princess Changle, she would definitely not eat my candied haws. But you're different, you're different... you..."
"cheers."
Amidst Liu Yanqiu's flustered voice, the sound of wine glasses clinking was unusually obvious. Then the woman in front of him smiled lightly and said something, then drank all the wine.
That smile seemed a little lonely in the night. The white rabbit fur tie seemed to be glowing in the moonlight, and there seemed to be stars in Gu Qingsheng's eyes.
The curve of her lips was very beautiful, and coupled with her majestic and delicate face, she did not look like an ordinary person under the moonlight.
That cheers, rather than the usual joy of drinking, is more like the sound of peace and the vicissitudes of life.
The arc of the raised head was also very beautiful. This scene made Liu Yanqiu stunned, and he even forgot to drink the wine in his hand.
No matter how much you say at this time, it will be futile and useless. Just this one glance will make Liu Yanqiu engraved in his mind forever.
Until a long, long time later.
It was not until Gu Qingsheng called him back to his senses that Liu Yanqiu woke up from his dream and his eyes slowly focused.
The hand holding the wine glass was a little restrained. He took a small sip and kept rubbing the rim of the glass with his fingers.
"Mr. Liu, you do have a younger sister, right?"
Liu Yanqiu suddenly stopped stroking the rim of the cup, and his heart slowly sank.
"right."
After a long while, he finally answered.
"So she is waiting for Mr. Liu to come back home now?"
Gu Qingsheng continued to ask.
This time, Liu Yanqiu seemed to have made a great decision. He looked up into the distance and laughed at himself.
"No, she's not with me. She's far away and seriously ill."
"That's why I came out to sell candied haws to save some money. When she comes back, I'll treat her illness."
"When she gets better, I'll take her fishing again."
As he spoke, he began to reminisce about the past, and his eyes, which were full of vitality, were now full of tenderness.
This look touched Gu Qingsheng's heart. She hugged her legs tightly, pursed her lips and buried her face.
"Actually, I have a brother, but he ignores me now."
Thinking of what happened between him and Gu Fengnan, Gu Qingsheng felt a pang of bitterness in his heart.
Gu Fengnan is now stationed at the border. In her previous life, it was not until a few days before her death that the royal palace was in trouble and Gu Fengnan led his men back from the border to fight.
However, the emperor at that time had no real power, and the new emperor had secretly hollowed out all the forces on the border. Even if he brought a large army to rescue the palace, the soldiers, who were as weak as paper shells, were vulnerable.
In the end, the entire army was wiped out and Gu Fengnan died in a hail of arrows.
He had been imprisoned at the time, and never saw his biological brother again until his death.
Feeling the bitterness in Gu Qingsheng's heart, Liu Yanqiu pursed her lips and leaned closer to her secretly. Her hand hesitated on Gu Qingsheng's shoulder.
"It's okay...what brother doesn't love his sister..."
Gu Qingsheng didn't react either, and he was about to put his hand on her, but he didn't expect that Gu Qingsheng suddenly looked up at the critical moment, which scared him so much that he shuddered all over and immediately withdrew his hand.
"Yes, now, there is still time."
After speaking to Liu Yanqiu, Gu Qingsheng drank another glass of
"Come again."
…
After three rounds of drinking, Gu Qingsheng was already a little confused.
She rested her head on her knees, her eyes slightly narrowed and her face flushed.
Watching Liu Yanqiu drink one glass of wine after another, blinking his misty eyes
"Mr. Liu..."
Liu Yanqiu sighed and reluctantly adjusted Gu Qingsheng to a comfortable position.
"I didn't expect you to be so intolerant of alcohol. You can't handle just a few drinks."
Her whole body was like a pool of soft water. She let Liu Yanqiu play with her, and finally carefully leaned her head on Liu Yanqiu's shoulder.
"If you're drunk, just take a nap."
Saying this soothing sentence to Gu Qingsheng seemed to have some effect, and Gu Qingsheng indeed began to feel drowsy.
After half an incense stick of time, she fell asleep with even breathing, leaning on Liu Yanqiu's shoulder.
After drinking until now, Liu Yanqiu simply started drinking directly from the bottle.
In the middle of the night, the town's canal is visible in the distance.
A brilliant firework exploded beside the canal, and the bright colors reflected some brilliance in Liu Yanqiu's eyes.
This firework was like foreplay, and then fireworks of all sizes exploded one after another, dyeing the entire sky brightly.
"Yeah……"
Liu Yanqiu murmured
"Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon."
Fireworks bloomed one after another, and at the intersection in the sky, the person on his shoulder was sleeping soundly, and the faint fragrance of drunkenness surrounded the two of them.
In the past, Liu Yanqiu felt that he might have no expectations for this world anymore.
Until today, he seemed to be happier again.
Looking at Gu Qingsheng on his shoulder, he was lost in thought. There was no more light in his eyes, as if they could only hold this thin figure.
