The corners of Pei Jiusheng's lips rose involuntarily. He didn't say anything else and leaned quietly against Ling Shumo. Pei Jiusheng only felt that his heart was wrapped by something soft and fluffy, and there was a feeling called "happiness" diffused in the air.
He didn't ask for much, he just wanted to stay with Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess in the last few years of his life.
He will also do his best to manage the trivial matters of the inner house for her. As long as he is alive, he will be a competent princess.
People always say, "When beauty fades, love fades quickly." But this will never happen to him, because his life will fade before his looks, and on the day he dies, he will still be as vibrant and full of life as he was in life.
He will die in the prime of his life.
In this way, even if he died, Her Royal Highness the Princess would always remember his face.
Her Royal Highness the Princess will remember his face and his kindness.
He will eventually die early, but he does not feel any regrets. As long as he can be with the person he loves during his lifetime and has been happy, that is enough.
Six carriages drove into the Donghua Gate of the Imperial Palace.
Pei Jiusheng was half a step behind Ling Shumo, and the two of them went to the imperial study together to offer tea and greet the emperor and empress.
After coming out of the imperial study, Pei Jiusheng gently pulled Ling Shumo's sleeve and said, "Your Highness, I want to go to the snow plum forest in the back mountain of Changle Palace again."
Ling Shumo asked doubtfully, "Don't you dislike plum blossoms?"
Pei Jiusheng clenched Ling Shumo's hand, "I didn't like it at first, but when I think about it, that's where your highness and I got engaged, and my favorite flower is the plum blossom."
Ling Shumo held Pei Jiusheng's hand, and the two walked side by side towards the back mountain of Changle Palace.
The wintersweets in spring are still blooming brilliantly.
A few petals fell on the shoulders of Pei Jiusheng and Ling Shumo. Pei Jiusheng saw that a rose-pink petal fell on the top of Ling Shumo's head.
Pei Jiusheng gently took the petal and placed it on his palm.
His lips were filled with the brightest smile, but his voice could hardly suppress the sadness, "Your Highness, next winter, can you accompany me to the Snow Plum Forest again?"
Ling Shumo didn't notice Pei Jiusheng's sudden change of mood, and she agreed to Pei Jiusheng's request without thinking.
After receiving a positive reply, Pei Jiusheng's eyes were filled with smiles.
He was destined not to live happily ever after with Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess.
Then, settle for the next best thing.
When the winter snow comes next year, the snowflakes will fall on their hair and shoulders just like the plum petals today.
"If we can get wet in the snow together one day, we can grow old together in this life."
