Qin Kou'er was fast asleep. When she opened her eyes, Lan Linxue was still sleeping like a child, with her arms wrapped around her waist and her head resting on her shoulder, fast asleep.
Looking at the sky outside, it seemed like it was only just past noon.
Although she hadn't slept for long, Qin Kou'er felt refreshed and completely recovered. She figured it was because of the hot bath.
I wanted to sleep a little longer, but I just couldn't fall asleep.
Lan Linxue shifted her shoulder slightly, immediately let out an uncomfortable groan, rubbed her head, found a spot, and continued to sleep soundly.
Qin Kou'er felt her whole body stiffen from being held by Lan Linxue. After thinking for a moment, she looked down at Lan Linxue, then lifted the covers and prepared to get out of bed quietly.
Where are you going?
As soon as Qin Kou'er sat up, Lan Linxue suddenly sat up straight as well, rubbing her eyes like a zombie and staring at Qin Kou'er.
Qin Kou'er quickly smiled and said, "I can't sleep, I'm going to get up and go see..."
Before Qin Kou'er could finish speaking, Lan Linxue stretched out her long arm and pinned her down on the bed, muttering as she closed her eyes, "I'm not awake yet, you sleep with me for a while!"
After saying that, he pressed down on Qin Kou'er with his long arms and legs, completely trapping her.
Qin Kou'er was almost suffocating from being pressed down. She reached out and forcefully lifted Lan Linxue's arm, struggling a bit as she said, "Lan Linxue, I'm going to be crushed to death by you! If you want to sleep, you can sleep alone. I'll get up and go outside to check."
"No! I can't sleep alone!" *Sigh*
Qin Kou'er rolled her eyes. Then, biting her lip and thinking for a moment, she suddenly leaned down and whispered in Lan Linxue's ear, "Your Highness, there's a legend in Sun Family Town that says if you eat the carp from Red Brocade Lake, you'll have many children and grandchildren, and boundless good fortune. Would you like to try it?"
"Will my wishes come true, and I be able to marry whomever I want?" Lan Linxue didn't even open her eyes, whimpering and clinging tightly to Qin Kou'er.
Qin Kou'er really wanted to bite his high nose, but she said, "You never know! Who knows, maybe eating it will make me pregnant first, and we might even get married because of the pregnancy!"
Lan Linxue opened her eyes with a snap and pulled Qin Kou'er up abruptly. "Why didn't you tell me about such a nice place earlier? What a waste of time!"
As she spoke, Lan Linxue hurriedly put on her shoes and got out of bed, then quickly dressed.
Feeling his hair was a bit messy, he forced Qin Kou'er to tie it up for him. After he finished, he turned around and found that Qin Kou'er's hair was still damp, her clothes were half-covered, and everything was still not done.
"Why are you so slow? Women are such a hassle!"
Qin Kou'er kicked Lan Linxue out of the way, saying, "Wait for me outside! If you keep nagging, I'm not going!"
Lan Linxue immediately stood obediently at the door and waited, but kept craning her neck to look inside.
After Qin Kou'er finished getting ready, Lan Linxue had already hired a carriage. The two of them didn't say much and walked hand in hand towards the lake.
"Lan Linxue, look how beautiful the scenery outside is!" Qin Kou'er said to Lan Linxue with a smile, while looking at the peach blossoms and willows outside the window. "Let me tell you, although Sunjia Town is not big, it is an ancient town with a history of thousands of years! It is said that an empress came from here in ancient times!"
Lan Linxue looked outside and, for the first time, didn't respond. Her face held an indescribable depth.
Looking at the ancient road and small buildings outside, the scenery was like a traditional Chinese ink painting. Lan Linxue suddenly said, "Stop the car!"
The driver stopped the carriage, and Qin Kou'er turned around to look at Lan Linxue with some surprise.
Lan Linxue smiled gently and said, "Such beautiful scenery, we should walk there and take a good look!"
After speaking, Lan Linxue got out of the car first and then helped Qin Kou'er out of the car.
The two strolled slowly along the tree-lined path, attracting the attention of passersby.
"Qin Kou'er, do you like it here?"
"I love it!" Qin Kou'er held Lan Linxue's hand, feeling a rare sense of peace and happiness. The gardenia in the little girl's hand in the distance was so beautiful!
"Take a look if you like! Who knows, this place might disappear soon!" Lan Linxue said with a blank expression but a somewhat deep voice.
"What?" Qin Kou'er turned around, thinking she hadn't heard clearly.
Just as Lan Linxue was about to speak, the little girl in the distance rushed over with a flower basket.
"Grandpa, buy a bouquet of flowers for Madam! She's so beautiful, these flowers suit her perfectly!" The little girl smiled sweetly, her adorable dimples appearing on her face.
Lan Linxue glanced down at the basket full of blooming flowers, smiled, and took out a string of coins from her pocket. "Okay! I'll buy all these flowers!"
The little girl took the money, her eyes widening. "But, but I can't use all this money!"
"Take it!" Lan Linxue said, handing the flowers to Qin Kou'er, but a soft sigh escaped her lips. "Take your family and go sell flowers elsewhere. This place will soon cease to exist!"
The little girl didn't understand the sudden melancholy on Lan Linxue's face, nor did she comprehend his words, but the money was indeed in her hands. Profusely thanking him, the little girl skipped away.
Qin Kou'er knew that Lan Linxue must have meant something, and her face gradually became serious.
"Lan Linxue, what did you mean by that just now? Why did this place disappear so quickly?"
Lan Linxue looked at Qin Kou'er, her eyes flickering with light, but her voice was somewhat hoarse as she said, "Qin Kou'er! I am the Crown Prince. There are some things I must do, whether I like it or not, whether I'm willing or not! Because this is the path to imperial power!"
"What do you mean? Explain yourself!"
Qin Kou'er held the flowers in her hand, but her heart began to grow cold: Lan Linxue must be hiding something important from her! Very important! Very important!
Just as Lan Linxue was about to speak again, the sound of galloping hooves suddenly came from afar. Soon, a large cavalry rushed up to the two of them and surrounded them.
Then an extremely luxurious carriage came to a stop.
Lan Linxue's face instantly turned cold.
A deep yet gentle voice came from inside, "Guards! Summon the Crown Prince back to the palace! Seize the suspect, Qin Kou'er! Put her in shackles!"
Immediately, a group of people rushed over, pushed Qin Kou'er away from Lan Linxue, and forced her to kneel on the ground.
