Chapter 591 Confession
Shili Pavilion. Ouyang Qianyu carried her bag and stared at the direction of the capital for a while. When she came to her senses, she got on her horse and prepared to leave.
Qin Huiyin gave her an idea and asked her to pretend to leave in order to test Puyang Qiubai's feelings.
However, what Qin Huiyin didn't know was that her departure was not fake, but she really intended to leave.
Since Puyang Qiubai can't make a decision, let her make it.
Over the years, they have been good partners, partners, and confidants, but he has never shown any romantic feelings for her, so he must have no intention of being with her. He didn't refuse because he was too gentle and didn't know how to refuse without embarrassing her.
So, she took the initiative to withdraw so as not to make things difficult for him and to allow them to maintain their relationship of dependence and companionship for so many years.
"Qianyu..." Puyang Qiubai's voice came from a distance. "Ouyang Qianyu..."
Ouyang Qianyu heard someone calling her name and turned her horse's head to look over.
When she saw the figure riding a horse galloping towards her like an arrow, she thought she was hallucinating.
He came on horseback wearing an imperial robe, with no followers following him. He left the palace alone, with an anxious look on his gentle face.
They have known each other for so many years, and he has never lost his composure like this even when facing danger. Only when facing the matter of his biological sister Qin Huiyin, he would have such an obvious emotional reaction. In other aspects, he is always so calm and self-reliant, as if everything is under his control.
She pinched her arm, and the pain confirmed that she was not dreaming.
When I looked up again, the figure opposite me was getting closer and closer, and it was obviously not an illusion.
She hesitated whether to leave now.
Finally, I decided to say goodbye to him.
Maybe he came here just to see her for the last time.
Puyang Qiubai got off the horse and strode towards Ouyang Qianyu.
"See ..."
Before Ouyang Qianyu could bow down, she was helped up by Puyang Qiubai.
"Are you leaving?" Puyang Qiubai looked at Ouyang Qianyu.
Ouyang Qianyu lowered her eyes and nodded gently.
"Why?" Puyang Qiubai asked, "Is it because the ministers are urging you to get married? You don't want to marry me, so you want to leave?"
Ouyang Qianyu: "..."
"The ministers said that I can make you a female general, but there is no war now. Even if I make you a female general, it will be a sinecure. As you can see, our Taixi country has just been established, and there are many generals with outstanding military achievements. Everyone can only train their troops and enjoy their retirement in the future."
"As for marrying you, the palace is a whirlpool. Once you fall into it, it will be difficult to get out. I don't want you to become the woman in the harem who is depressed by herself. What's more... we grew up together, and you have always only treated me as a friend, not as a man and a woman..."
Ouyang Qianyu looked up at Puyang Qiubai: "Your Majesty, if you want to talk about yourself, just talk about yourself. There is no need to push the problem to me."
"Qianyu?" Puyang Qiubai was surprised.
"Your Majesty has no romantic feelings for me, and I will not embarrass Your Majesty."
"I have known that you are my fiancée since I was five years old. Over the years, I have never forgotten this promise and have always regarded you as my fiancée. Once the Puyang family recognizes someone, they will not change their mind. Moreover, our family only has monogamy, so once they recognize someone, they will not change their mind."
Ouyang Qianyu looked at Puyang Qiubai in confusion.
Puyang Qiubai looked a little uncomfortable.
Ouyang Qianyu's head was buzzing and she was unable to react.
"What do you mean, sir?"
"I have known since childhood that you are my fiancée and the person who will accompany me for the rest of my life. How could I not have feelings for you? I have always treated you as a girl. Can't you feel it?" Puyang Qiubai sighed softly.
"We have been together since childhood and have been through so much. I have fought like a man. How could you treat me as a girl?" Ouyang Qianyu blushed.
"There are always fresh flowers in your room, and most of the time I cut them and asked them to be put in your vase. You often have stomachaches during your monthly period, and I also send people to treat you. I also told my subordinates not to let you eat spicy food or ice cream during those days. Your clothes for all seasons are all made by me in the right styles and sent to you. But you don't like brightly colored dresses, and only like simple riding clothes or men's clothes..."
Puyang Qiubai recounted certain details of these years one by one.
He was not a person who liked to talk about love, and he looked particularly uncomfortable when talking about these old things.
At this moment, he no longer looked like a king who commanded his men, but more like a young boy who was just beginning to fall in love.
Ouyang Qianyu was shocked by what he said.
She had never noticed this, and he had never even asked the servants to tell her that he had prepared those things himself.
"Tsk..." Zhuge Congfeng's sigh rang out from the bushes. "Some people are dumb on weekdays, but now that they see their wives are about to run away, they start to get anxious."
"Shh!" Qin Huiyin made a gesture to him to shut up.
Zhuge Congfeng emerged from the bushes and said to the two people not far away, "Don't be so awkward, why don't you just talk it out earlier? Qianyu, he has feelings for you. Last time you were injured and unconscious for several days and nights, he took care of you without taking off his clothes for several days, ate and slept with you, and then when you were about to wake up, he was awkward, saying that he looked haggard, and he avoided seeing you, and didn't let anyone tell you that he took care of you."
"He is a stubborn person. In the eyes of others, the engagement has been annulled long ago, but he has always taken care of you as his future wife. However, he said that the family is no longer there, and he doesn't want you to be bound by those rules and regulations, and he doesn't want to make things difficult for you. He also said that if you can find someone you like, he will let you go. Therefore, you don't need to know about the things he did, so as not to trap you in the past."
"I've already said that you care about that engagement, and Qianyu is not a careless person, so you just need to talk it out as soon as possible."
Qin Huiyin walked out from behind Zhuge Congfeng and said, "Brother, you won't be able to woo my sister-in-law if you are so reserved."
Ouyang Qianyu's cheeks flushed, and she looked at Puyang Qiubai: "If you really want to, why don't you want to get married?"
"Of course he is not sure about your thoughts. He is not sure and does not dare to ask you. So you just say whether this person is weird or not?" Zhuge Congfeng said.
"Qianyu, if you want to be a female general, I will issue an imperial decree to make you the first female general in the world. If you are willing to fulfill the marriage contract, can you be with me for the rest of my life?" Puyang Qiubai held her hand. "Men of the Puyang family will not take concubines, so the selection proposed by the ministers will not happen. After you and I get married, you can come and go freely in and out of the palace, and do whatever you want, without being burdened by your status."
