Chapter 149
An hour later, Fu Qingyu and Xia Xue finished tidying up.
It was already dark, and there were only a few people left in the Yu Garden. Fu Yuqing felt a little depressed, perhaps because she was thinking about what Prince Bo had just said to her.
At this moment, a familiar tall figure appeared in Fu Yuqing's eyes, and Fu Yuqing opened her mouth slightly.
Xia Xue was also a little surprised. She thought that based on the attitude of Princess Xian's maid just now, Princess Xian would definitely try to obstruct the relationship between Prince Bo and Fu Yuqing. However, she did not expect that Prince Bo would still wait here as agreed.
Xia Xue narrowed her eyes slightly. This Princess Xian was more difficult to deal with than she had imagined.
When Fu Yuqing saw Prince Bo, her face immediately lit up with joy.
Just as he was about to leave, he thought of Xia Xue who was standing beside him.
Xia Xue smiled and said, "You go ahead. I'll go to Yangxin Palace first."
Fu Yuqing nodded.
At this time, Xia Xue's belly was rumbling a little. Xia Xue touched her belly gently and wanted to laugh. She vaguely remembered that the old people often said that if two people from far away places could get married, their children would be smarter. In her words, although her soul was an alien, her body was still a real ancient person. But what about Fu Yuqing?
With love spanning thousands of years, wouldn’t the child be smart enough to go to the ends of the earth?
Shaking her head, Xia Xue walked in another direction.
Fu Qingyu here, facing the remaining sunset, walked towards Prince Bo. Prince Bo stood there, like a big boy, and waved to Fu Qingyu.
Prince Bo's smile was still as warm as ever, as if it could instantly open people's closed hearts.
After an unknown amount of time, Fu Yuqing walked up to him.
Prince Bo smiled and rubbed Fu Yuqing's head. "You changed your clothes and put on makeup in such a short time. You are amazing."
Fu Yuqing pouted, "Have you been waiting?"
"It's not bad. I haven't appreciated the scenery of Yu Garden for a long time. Today is a good opportunity for me to take a good look at it." Prince Bo avoided the main point.
Although it was the beginning of spring, the temperature was still relatively low. Fu Yuqing thought that Prince Bo, who had been called away by Princess Xian, would definitely not come to the appointment again. She didn't expect that she would be the one who broke the appointment.
The icicles on Prince Bo's sleeves entered Fu Yuqing's sight at this time, and Fu Yuqing felt a little sad.
"In this weather, my clothes are wet. Why don't I find a place to change?" Fu Qingyu murmured.
"Do you think everyone can change clothes in the palace like the Prime Minister and his wife?" Prince Bo laughed and ruffled Fu Yuqing's hair. "It's okay, it's just that the outer coat is a little wet, and the clothes inside are still very thick. Besides, we martial artists are not that delicate."
Fu Yuqing glared at him. If she continued to fiddle with her hair like this, she would have to call a maid to comb her hair again.
But it felt really good to be alone with just the two of them, walking side by side as the sun set.
Fu Yuqing didn't say anything, and Prince Bo didn't say anything either. Neither of them wanted to ruin the temporary good atmosphere.
After walking for a while, Prince Bo suddenly stopped and said, "My mother just said..."
Prince Bo paused for a moment, and Fu Yuqing breathed a sigh of relief. Was he going to talk about their affairs? Although she didn't care about these things before, now she did have a little expectation in her heart, hoping that something would happen between her and Prince Bo.
Prince Bo looked at Fu Yuqing's expectant eyes and suddenly didn't know what to say. He frowned and said, "Mother agreed to let me enter the court and serve the court."
Fu Yuqing was stunned. So this is what they were talking about.
He smiled awkwardly, "That's great. You've always wanted to do something for the country and for the people. If you have a legitimate platform, you can give full play to your talents."
Prince Bo grabbed Fu Yuqing's shoulders with both hands, "You support me too? Do you really want me to serve as an official in the court?"
Fu Yuqing smiled bitterly in her heart. If she said she was unwilling, would you not enter the court? She didn't want Prince Bo to be too outstanding. If that happened, the gap between her and Prince Bo would be even greater.
But from the perspective of Prince Bo personally, he should indeed enter the court. After all, only by entering the court can he truly display his own value.
Fu Yuqing smiled and nodded.
After getting a positive answer, Prince Bo hugged Fu Yuqing.
Fu Yuqing was stunned for a moment. According to actual age, Prince Bo was a few years younger than her. Did this count as being molested by her younger brother?
Prince Bo was a little carried away, but he quickly remembered that this was not an appropriate occasion, so he let go of Fu Yuqing, a faint blush appearing on his face.
"Just now, mother told me that she doesn't object to our relationship, but she hopes that you can be my concubine and let me marry a wife who can help me in the future. I didn't object immediately. This matter needs long-term consideration. I don't like those pretentious young ladies from official families. So, can you wait for me? Can you trust me? I want to become strong. Only by becoming strong can I not depend on anyone." Prince Bo seemed to have made some kind of guarantee.
Fu Yuqing looked at him. Prince Bo, who had just saved her, was like a prince charming who descended from the sky in the halo and attracted many people's attention. At that time, she was like Cinderella, becoming a thorn in the eyes of all women and making everyone jealous. And Prince Bo at this time was like a child who had been working hard since childhood and constantly wanted to be affirmed by adults. Finally one day, someone began to affirm him. The innocence and purity he showed was rarely seen.
However, is the feeling that Prince Bo has for her at this moment really love? Or is it a kind of dependence after encouragement? Or...
She had thought about the problem between her and Prince Bo before. The gap was too big. As a modern person, she could not accept her man having three wives and four concubines. But if she really liked Prince Bo, how could she selfishly ask him to marry only her? How much would Prince Bo pay for this?
Fu Yuqing shook her head. She might not be able to bear this kind of sacrifice of love.
She likes Prince Bo and Prince Bo likes her, that's enough, it's just a love affair, why bother about marriage!
Thinking of this, Fu Qingyu suddenly felt relieved.
"How old are you? You have to think about so many things. Hurry up and take the first step. Xue'er just said that she didn't expect you to be so good at fighting. She turned around and asked the Prime Minister if there was any position suitable for you."
"Prince Xiang?" Prince Bo frowned. "Although the Prime Minister has a good reputation, he is too powerful now. I don't want to rely on him."
"You men just think too much. Xue'er has good intentions and doesn't want to lose a talent like you, but if you don't want to, I'll tell her not to ask."
The two talked for a while and then walked towards the Yangxin Palace.
The two people who had been concentrating all the time did not notice that there was a figure behind them, clenching his fists tightly.
