Qing Zhan burped slightly, opened his hazy and swollen peach blossom eyes, and looked carefully. It turned out that he had come to the Princess's Mansion unconsciously.
Maybe it was because I felt so sad and wanted to find someone to talk to, so I subconsciously thought of Pingyang.
The lonely moon hangs in the sky.
Pingyang should be asleep by now.
Qing Zhan didn't think of the difference between men and women at this moment. He only knew that they were playmates for many years. He was depressed and wanted to find someone to talk to. Pingyang was the most suitable person. Maybe... Pingyang knew that his younger sister was going to leave the capital, so he might stop her. After all, Pingyang loved to cry and make a fuss. If his younger sister was soft-hearted, maybe she wouldn't leave?
His mind was dominated by emotions and strong liquor. He put his finger to his lips and made a bird call, "Cuckoo~".
This was the secret code they had agreed upon before. Whenever he came to find Pingyang, he would make a cuckoo call at the back door. If Pingyang responded, it meant that she had heard it and would appear after a while. If there was no response after three calls, he would leave.
Pingyang had already lain down in the Princess's Mansion, Mingyue Pavilion, and was about to fall into a drowsy sleep when he suddenly heard the call of a cuckoo.
She opened her eyes in a flash, thinking she was dreaming, but then another cuckoo sounded...
Outside the mansion, after Qing Zhan heard two bird calls, he stood in the shadows, all alone. There was no response from inside the princess's mansion. It was so late, Pingyang must have fallen asleep long ago.
He didn't call out a third time, but turned around and was about to leave.
But the next moment, there was a creaking sound, and the back door opened, revealing the delicate and pretty face of a little girl. Pingyang poked his head out with a pair of big eyes, "Qing Er? Is it really you?"
Pingyang looked very surprised, blinking his eyes, with his hair loose. He was wearing a pink long-sleeved satin middle shirt with a cloak casually draped over it. It was obvious that he had gotten up and ran out in a hurry.
Qing Zhan was stunned. Pingyang really came out.
He didn't know if it was because of the alcohol or the moonlight tonight, but a soft and sour emotion surged in his heart.
Why is Pingyang so good?
She was not wearing any makeup, and she looked delicate and tender, with a pair of bright big eyes, and she appeared before him in the dark night.
"Pingyang..."
Qing Zhan choked up and called her name.
The next moment, Pingyang slammed the back door shut, frowned, and rushed over to him with an impatient look on his face. "Qing Er, is there something wrong with you? Why are you running to the back door of this princess's mansion in the middle of the night? Hey, what's wrong with your eyes? Have you been crying?"
The beautiful thoughts disappeared in an instant.
Pingyang stood in front of Qing Zhan, staring at his red and swollen peach blossom eyes. He was amazed and even more curious. "Qing Er, what happened? Your eyes are swollen like goldfish eyes. Who bullied you? Tell this princess, and I will avenge you!"
Pingyang said angrily.
She stared closely at Qing Zhan's peach blossom eyes, which were swollen from crying. If you looked closely, you could see the mist of tears under his wet eyelashes.
Oh no!
Who on earth has offended Qing Er?
In all the years she'd known Qing Er, she'd only seen him cry twice. Four years prior, at 'Sister Qing's' wedding. Who knew then that Sister Qing was actually that vicious woman, Qing Yunyao, in disguise? Qing Zhan had carried 'Sister Qing' on his back to the wedding, his eyes red as he walked. He must have been trying hard to hide it. When she found him that evening, he saw a drunk Qing Er sobbing, his heart broken.
He said that his beloved younger sister was getting married, and as an older brother he felt sad.
At that time, I held her hand and said that she would get married in a few years, and then I would send another sister to marry...
She was really something. She slapped him hard at that time. Who was his sister?
It was just that Qing Er was drunk and fell asleep on her shoulder. She had to endure it for a long time before she didn't throw him into the flower bed.
Now that I think about it, I really gave my heart to the wrong person! The person I married was a fake Qing Yunyao, and all the tears I shed at that time were wasted.
The second time was at Nanjiao Temple, where Sister Qing was in a coma and Qing Er almost collapsed.
So, this is the third time...
Is Qing Er feeling upset again because his sister Qing is getting married to his sixth brother?
"Pingyang..."
Hearing Pingyang's heartwarming and supportive words, Qing Zhan was moved and comforted. He ignored her fierce tone. His eyes were sore and the corners of his eyes became redder. He lowered his head and leaned it on Pingyang's shoulder, "Pingyang, I feel bad..."
"Hmm...how much alcohol have you had? What happened? Why are you feeling so bad?"
When I got closer, I could smell the strong smell of alcohol on Qing Er. I wanted to push his head away, but this guy was so heavy.
Qing Zhan's mind was dazed, and his heart was filled with anxiety. "Pingyang, can you go talk to Yue'er and ask her not to leave?"
"ah?"
Pingyang was completely confused and didn't understand what Qing Zhan was saying at all.
"Qing Er, what kind of drunken madness are you playing? Where could Sister Qing go? She is now Fourth Brother's princess. It's just another grand wedding. It's no different from now. Why are you so drunk?"
Pingyang scolded and laughed at Qing Zhan, saying that this guy was really crazy. He came to her in the middle of the night and acted crazy. If her mother knew about it, he would definitely be put in solitary confinement again.
"No...it's Yue'er who's leaving the capital...She's leaving with my eldest brother, going to the border..."
Qing Zhan exhaled and spoke vaguely.
"What?"
Pingyang was stunned, his eyes wide open, and he slapped Qing Zhan's head off his shoulder, making Qing Zhan dazed and almost fall down. Fortunately, Pingyang quickly supported him, "What's going on? Qing Er, wake up. What do you mean Sister Qing is leaving the capital for the border? How is that possible? Are you drunk and talking nonsense? Hey, hey, wake up... wake up..."
Pingyang slapped Qing Er on the face with one hand, and was so anxious that Qing Er grabbed his hand.
"Pingyang, why did you hit me?"
Qing Zhan frowned and looked at her straight.
"No, Qing Er, I want to ask you a question. What's the matter with what you just said, Sister Qing, is going to the border? Will my fourth brother let her go?"
Pingyang asked hurriedly.
It would have been fine if Feng Ling hadn't been mentioned, but once he did, Qing Zhan's anger soared to the sky. In his drunken haze, he finally remembered everything. It was Prince You and Prince Yu's excessive bullying that had driven his younger sister to despair and leave. Especially Prince Yu, why didn't he trust his younger sister? Why?
Is the prince so great?
Can you play tricks on people like this?
Prince You, despite the friendship between his younger sister and him for more than ten years, he destroyed his younger sister's reputation in this way.
And Prince Yu...
"Let's go find him! I want to ask him why he bullies my little sister like this."
Two flames suddenly ignited in Qing Zhan's eyes, almost burning.
"Wait, wait... where are we going? Qing Er, you haven't explained yourself clearly yet, you... ah... put me down..."
