"I don't want to marry the fourth prince."
The Fourth Prince, Long Yao?
This is your destined husband.
Chu Qingxuan said, "Miss Yue, have you considered that your marriage was decreed by the Emperor himself? If you run away from the marriage, that would be defying the imperial decree."
"It's true that you escaped, but... have you considered that if you disobey the imperial decree, your entire family will be implicated?"
"If I'm not mistaken, the Yue family will soon be raided."
Yue Jinyun's eyes widened. She immediately stood up and was about to run outside.
Chu Qingxuan grabbed Yue Jinyun with lightning speed, "You can't go back like this."
"Why?" Yue Jinyun asked in confusion.
"Your return dressed as a man confirms that you ran away from home, doesn't it?"
Yue Jinyun: "..."
It seems so.
Chu Qingxuan said, "Change back into women's clothing. If anyone asks about the Fourth Prince's residence, just say you got lost on the way out."
Yue Jinyun: "Is this okay?"
Chu Qingxuan said mercilessly, "You're so naive, people will definitely believe you."
Yue Jinyun: "..."
She was speechless.
Yue Jinyun changed her clothes at Chu Qingxuan's place and then left Baihualou.
After Yue Jinyun left, Dongfang Hao brought his men over. It seems... someone was monitoring Yue Jinyun and went to complain about her after she left.
Chu Qingxuan looked at the figure outside the window, Dongfang Hao...
What would you do?
Several days passed, and Chu Qingxuan still hadn't heard any news of what had happened at the Yue residence. Then one day, Chu Qingxuan saw Dongfang Hao at the Hundred Flowers Pavilion!
That day, Dongfang Hao sat in the hall drinking tea, while Chu Qingxuan played the zither behind the screen.
The melodious sound of the zither reached Dongfang Hao's ears. He glanced at the figure behind the screen, his eyes filled with deep understanding.
After finishing playing the piano, Chu Qingxuan returned to her room. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Dongfang Hao. Chu Qingxuan was stunned for a moment, and then closed the door.
She smiled and said, "General, we are not receiving guests today."
Today, Dongfang Hao was dressed in a purple robe, his long black hair flowing down his back. He turned to look at Chu Qingxuan with a calm expression.
"Mother Liu agreed."
Chu Qingxuan: "..."
After a moment of surprise, Chu Qingxuan asked with a smile, "Then how does the General want this humble woman to receive guests?"
As Chu Qingxuan spoke, she walked towards Dongfang Hao, her every smile and gesture teasing him.
Dongfang Hao remained unmoved.
He pointed to the stool next to him and said casually, "Sit down."
Chu Qingxuan sat obediently opposite Dongfang Hao, smiling as she gazed at him.
Without thinking, Dongfang Hao said, "Yue Jingyun went back."
Chu Qingxuan feigned ignorance, "What?"
Dongfang Hao said, "The Fourth Prince did not want to marry Yue Jinyun. That day, he asked me to come out and arrest Yue Jinyun. As long as we caught Yue Jinyun and obtained evidence that she did not want to get married, he could cancel the engagement."
Chu Qingxuan: "Who is Yue Jinyun?"
Dongfang Hao's expression changed slightly, and he pointed to the person next to him, "The person who was lying in your bed that day."
Chu Qingxuan made no attempt to hide her fear, "Ah, I've been discovered. What will the General do with me?"
Dongfang Hao remained silent.
Chu Qingxuan continued, "However... the general also covered it up."
Dongfang Hao said, "No."
Chu Qingxuan looked puzzled.
A sly glint flashed across Dongfang Hao's face. "The Fourth Prince is getting old; it's time for him to get married."
Aren't you two friends?
Dongfang Hao said, "That wasn't the case that day."
Chu Qingxuan immediately understood that Long Yao had offended Dongfang Hao.
Dongfang Hao is taking revenge on Long Yao.
