After walking around, Zhao Qingrui suddenly realized that the hustle and bustle did not belong to her, she was just a single dog.
"Do you need me to find a male companion for Your Majesty?" Shang Lian said after thinking seriously.
"No need, let's go eat something and then go to the Wei River to take a look." Zhao Qingrui shook his head.
She doesn't want anyone around who she doesn't know.
The banks of the Wei River are very lively at night, with lights illuminating the area and people coming and going.
In recent years, Zhao Qingrui has lifted the curfew. Although some incidents still happen occasionally, public security is getting better and better under the powerful measures taken by the government.
There are many young boys and girls coming here, and of course, there are also some who come here for chance encounters.
Zhao Qingrui took Shang Lian to various snack shops, but she didn't know that she had also caught the attention of others.
"Brother Yi, what are you looking at? I called you several times, but you didn't respond." Jia Henian waved his hand in front of Yi Cheng.
"Ahem, I found a beauty. She's alone, so I won't say much to Brother Jia. I'll go over and take a look." After saying that, he ignored Jia Henian and walked straight towards Zhao Qingrui.
Jia Henian stood there holding half a roasted chicken. Yi Cheng was already married, and with his sister-in-law's temper, he actually dared to flirt with girls outside. Was he crazy?
No, he had to go over and take a look, and then stop Yi Cheng.
"Do you like this lantern, girl?"
When Zhao Qingrui was about to pick up a lotus lantern, a big hand got there first, picked up the lantern directly, and waved it in front of her.
"I'll buy it and give it to the girl." Yi Cheng looked at Zhao Qingrui with a smile.
This girl is so beautiful. Moreover, judging from her clothes and accessories, her family should be well-off and she has a good temperament. He saw her in the crowd at a glance.
"I don't like it." Zhao Qingrui took a look at the lantern, frowned, and turned away.
Living in the palace for the past few years has made her develop many habits, and mysophobia is one of them.
Everything that was brought to her had been checked countless times. Every corner of the palace was spotless, without a speck of dust.
Now that the lantern fell into the hands of this somewhat greasy man, Zhao Qingrui instantly lost interest.
Jia Henian, who was chasing after him in a hurry, suddenly widened his eyes when he saw Zhao Qingrui's face, and the roast chicken wrapped in oil paper in his hand fell to the ground.
He's going to die. Yi Cheng is even more suicidal than him.
"Miss, don't be in a hurry to leave. I have already paid for this lantern. Here is a gift for you." Seeing Zhao Qingrui was about to leave, Yi Cheng stopped Zhao Qingrui directly and placed the lantern in front of her.
Zhao Qingrui also saw Jia Henian and recognized him, but he didn't expect to see him here.
Seeing that he was about to salute, Zhao Qingrui stopped him directly.
"Take him with me to the boat." Zhao Qingrui looked at Jia Henian with a cold face, and walked towards the cruise ship not far away. This was prepared for her by Shang Lian.
"Yes." Jia Henian said respectfully.
Yi Cheng was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Zhao Qingrui meant.
Before Yi Cheng could react, Jia Henian had already covered his mouth and pulled him to follow Zhao Qingrui.
"You've offended someone, be quiet." Seeing Yi Cheng trying to struggle, Jia Henian whispered.
The two have known each other for many years, and Yi Cheng took Jia Henian's words to heart.
He looked at the woman walking in front of him, his thoughts swirling in his mind, and he felt a little unsure.
The woman looked unfamiliar. He had seen some noble ladies from big families, but none of them seemed to be like this.
It was just a few dozen steps away, and Yi Cheng thought a lot.
The commotion on their side attracted some attention. While they were discussing, the Jinyiwei people had come to help maintain order, allowing Zhao Qingrui to enter the ship safely.
"Greetings to His Majesty, long live His Majesty." As soon as he entered, Jia Henian hurriedly saluted and forced Yi Cheng to kneel down.
Yi Cheng felt a buzzing in his head. Your Majesty? She is Your Majesty?
It's over. This is the only thought left in my mind.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. Your Majesty, please forgive me." Yi Cheng was so scared that cold sweats broke out.
"Are you scared now?" Zhao Qingrui glanced at Yi Cheng indifferently.
"I know my crime." Yi Cheng sat paralyzed on the deck. Would His Majesty kill him directly?
"Have you married and had children?" Zhao Qingrui looked at Yi Cheng. This guy looked to be in his twenties or thirties. At this age and in this era, he should be married, right?
After she came to power, she raised the age for marriage. Even so, the population of Daqin still grew rapidly.
Uh, why is Your Majesty asking these questions? Yi Cheng's heart tightened.
He didn't think that His Majesty would be interested in him, because Jia Henian looked much better than him.
"Your Majesty, I am married and have two sons and a daughter." Yi Cheng did not dare to hide anything and told him about his situation.
Zhao Qingrui glanced at Jia Henian, asking with his eyes whether what he said was true.
"Your Majesty, what he said is true. I have some friendship with him and I know everything about his family." Jia Henian said with a stiff face.
"Is that so? How should I punish you?" Zhao Qingrui touched his chin.
"By the way, Dun Ruo, go and bring his wife here. I want to see her." Zhao Qingrui said to Dun Ruo at the door.
"Okay, I'll go right away." Dun Ruo left quickly.
Yi Cheng knelt down anxiously, not knowing what to do for a moment.
"Tell me about his family situation." Zhao Qingrui glanced at Jia Henian and leisurely picked up a piece of dessert to eat.
Unexpectedly, when she went out today, someone actually approached her to chat up.
