Chapter 162: Actually, I have liked Your Majesty for a long time
"Hold your hand and grow old with you."
Yan Ruxue looked at Xiao Mo with a smile and spoke slowly.
"I like these two sentences, too." Xiao Mo nodded and took a sip of tea.
"I thought you would laugh at me." Yan Ruxue raised the corner of her mouth slightly.
"Why do you say that?" Xiao Mo asked.
"Because these are all about love, it seems petty." Yan Ruxue lowered her eyes slightly and tucked a strand of hair on her cheek behind her ear.
"Miss, that's not right." Xiao Mo smiled and shook his head. "Of all the words in the world, love is the most deadly. No matter how the world changes, no matter how time passes, only the word 'love' remains unchanged."
"." Yan Ruxue's eyes moved slightly, and she stared quietly into Xiao Mo's eyes.
"What's wrong with the girl?" Xiao Mo looked at the woman in front of him. He always felt that there was something wrong with the eyes when she looked at him just now.
It's like there's an impulse in my heart.
But she forced herself to suppress the impulse.
"Nothing." Yan Ruxue shook her head. "I just think what you said makes a lot of sense. I'll offer you a cup of tea instead of wine."
"You're welcome, young lady."
Xiao Mo raised his teacup, clinked it with Yan Ruxue's across the air, and drank it all in one gulp.
After half an hour, Wei Xun looked at the sky and felt that it was almost time. He walked forward and said softly, "Master, it's getting late. Shouldn't we go back?"
"Got it." Xiao Mo stood up and bowed to Yan Ruxue. "Miss, I'll take my leave first. I had a great time talking to you today."
Yan Ruxue stood up and bowed. "Sir, take care. I'm about to go back. If you don't mind, you can have a taste of this box of cakes."
"Then I'll accept it without hesitation. Be careful on the road, young lady."
"Same, young master."
Xiao Mo didn't act pretentiously. After accepting the pastries, he turned around and left.
Watching Xiao Mo's figure disappear at the end, Yan Ruxue withdrew her gaze.
"Xiaochun, let's go back too." Yan Ruxue smiled gently.
"Yes, miss."
Xiaochun quickly put away the cushions, kite, tea sets and other things, and poured the charcoal used to make tea into the lake.
After the lake water was scalded and a small cloud of mist rose up, the charcoal in the stove gradually sank to the bottom.
On the way back to the palace, Xiao Mo looked at the box of cakes in Wei Xun's hand and said:
"Wei Xun, I want to try it."
"Okay, sir." Wei Xun quickly opened the oil paper and carefully handed it to His Majesty.
Xiao Mo pinched out a piece of osmanthus cake and took a bite.
"Um?"
Looking at the half-bitten osmanthus cake in his hand, Xiao Mo couldn't help but frown.
"Sir, what's wrong with this osmanthus cake?" Wei Xun asked.
"It's okay, I just feel that the taste of this osmanthus cake is a little familiar."
"Familiar?" Wei Xun was even more confused.
"It tastes a bit like what I've had before, but not quite. This osmanthus cake is much better."
Xiao Mo stopped, turned around and looked towards the direction of Bichun Lake.
After three breaths, Xiao Mo smiled and shook his head, as if he was mocking himself for the unrealistic idea that had just come up with.
"Forget it, I'm just thinking too much. Let's go back."
"Yes, sir."
After Xiaochun threw the tea set, kite and other things into the carriage, she did not get on the carriage with the young lady to return home.
The young lady wanted to stroll around the market, so Xiaochun naturally accompanied her.
Although she was a little tired from walking, she really enjoyed shopping with the lady.
Every time I go shopping with a lady, there are always all kinds of people looking at her with all kinds of eyes.
Xiaochun wanted to dig out these people's eyes.
"Miss, Miss." Xiaochun shook the young lady's little hand, with gossip in her eyes.
"What's wrong?" Yan Ruxue asked with a smile.
"Miss, why don't you tell His Majesty your name?" Xiaochun was very curious.
She had thought several times that her young lady had revealed her name and was waiting to see His Majesty's reaction.
But the lady never said it and always referred to herself as "a little girl".
Yan Ruxue stretched out her finger and gently tapped Xiaochun's forehead: "Xiaochun, did His Majesty ask my name?"
"No." Xiaochun shook her head.
Yan Ruxue asked again, "Did His Majesty tell us his identity?"
"No," Xiaochun shook her head again, "Yes, why is that? Logically speaking, young lady, you are so beautiful, shouldn't His Majesty reveal your identity and take you back to the palace?"
"Silly girl." Yan Ruxue smiled gently, "Since we just met by chance, why do you have to ask so many questions and add a touch of complexity to this purely chance encounter?"
"But Miss." Xiaochun rubbed her forehead, "It won't be long before Miss enters the palace."
"Yes, but today is today, and tomorrow is tomorrow. Today I am his friend, but after a while, I will be his wife. He will probably be very surprised."
"Yes, His Majesty will definitely be very surprised and very happy."
Xiaochun said with a smile, anticipation already building in her heart.
On the night of his anticipated wedding, His Majesty lifted the young lady's red veil and found out that his queen was the woman he had met by chance.
What a surprise His Majesty would be...
This is just like the story in a vernacular novel.
But then again.
Xiaochun looked at the young lady beside her, with a hint of worry in her eyes: "Miss, how do you feel about His Majesty? Do you like His Majesty?"
At first, Xiaochun felt that it was not worth it for her young lady to enter the palace.
Because your Majesty's reputation is not good.
Rumor has it that His Majesty is incompetent and has a violent temper, and often beats and scolds palace maids.
But after meeting His Majesty twice, Xiaochun felt that His Majesty was not that kind of person at all.
Your Majesty gives people a feeling of elegance, like a scholar, graceful and handsome, and without any airs.
All in all, His Majesty is completely different from what has been rumored.
"I like it." Yan Ruxue replied with a smile.
"Huh?" Xiaochun was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect the lady to answer so directly. She felt a little embarrassed.
"And I'll tell you a secret, Xiaochun, please don't tell His Majesty."
Yan Ruxue said mysteriously, with a hint of playfulness in her words.
"Miss, please tell me what you want. I will never tell His Majesty!" Xiaochun's eyes sparkled.
"Actually, I've liked Your Majesty for a long time."
"But wasn't it three months ago that Miss first met His Majesty?"
"Who said that?" Yan Ruxue raised the corner of her mouth, "I have met His Majesty before."
Xiaochun scratched his head and said, "Miss, how long have you liked His Majesty?"
Yan Ruxue smiled and pinched Xiaochun's nose: "It's been seven thousand years."
"Seven thousand years?"
Xiaochun stopped and looked at the lady's back as she walked away, thinking about what she said.
After a while, Xiaochun reacted and hurriedly chased after the young lady.
"Miss, you are lying! You are obviously only nineteen years old!"
