The smile on Cui Zheyu's face faded, and she suddenly remembered what Xie Xiao said to her in the afternoon.
Seeing that she looked unhappy, Cui Ziying quickly asked: "Sister, what did he say to you in the afternoon? Did you...did he make you angry?"
He didn't hear the content of the conversation between the two, but when he saw Xie Xiao leaving at the end, his face seemed unhappy, and his sister seemed to be in a bad mood throughout the afternoon.
Cui Zheyu lowered his eyes and said calmly: "It's nothing. He was a little surprised to know my identity, so he said a few more words."
Hearing this, Cui Ziying's expression changed slightly and said, "Does he dislike your identity?" A trace of anger flashed across his pale face, and Cui Ziying turned around and walked out.
Cui Zheyu quickly grabbed him and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Cui Ziying said: "Go and beat him up so that he will never dare to appear in front of my sister again!"
Cui Zheyu sighed helplessly and said: "Don't be ridiculous, he doesn't mean that. Besides...even if he is not a martial arts practitioner, you may not be able to beat him now."
If it were the original Cui Ziying, beating Xie Xiao would probably be just for fun. But now Cui Ziying is no longer the high-spirited young general he was back then. However, Xie Xiao has been traveling around the world all year round. Even if he is not good at martial arts, he is at least a good person.
A young man who is about to reach the peak of his physical strength may not be as physically strong as Cui Ziying.
Cui Ziying snorted lightly and said: "He is not my opponent, I will not let anyone bully my sister!"
Cui Zheyu said: "He is a child, how can he bully me? Don't make trouble either."
Cui Ziying frowned and couldn't help but said: "Sister, you broke up unhappy in the afternoon, is it because of you... what happened to him?"
Cui Ziying was actually dissatisfied with Xie Xiao, not only because of his identity but also his age. He would only turn twenty next spring and he was too young.
At this age, maybe he is really infatuated with his sister now, but what about another three to five years? Who can guarantee that he will still be infatuated by then? Will he remember to care about his sister's identity and past again?
?
But he didn't know what his sister thought, and he couldn't say he disagreed.
My sister has had a hard enough life these years. If she really likes Xie Xiao, he will not stop them. As long as my sister can be happy now, even if something happens in the future, he will still be there, right?
Cui Zheyu said calmly: "He wanted to tell his parents that he wanted to marry me, but I refused."
Cui Ziying was startled and said, "He is still somewhat sincere."
Cui Zheyu had no choice but to push his brother away and said: "He is not sensible, and neither are you? Do you think Princess An Cheng wants a woman who is so much older than her son and has a complicated background as her daughter-in-law?"
Princess Ancheng is not in good health. If something happens, no one will be able to live well."
Cui Ziying said: "That's his mother. Since he dares to say it, he must know it in his heart."
Cui Zheyu shook his head and said nothing. Although the Cui family was not a famous family, to be fair, if Ziying wanted to marry a woman of the same status as her, let alone her own parents, even she would not agree.
Comparing herself with others, she will naturally not be harsh on others.
Cui Ziying understood somewhat, "Sister, you never thought about marrying Xie Xiao, right?"
Cui Zheyu sighed and said, "I shouldn't have provoked him in the first place." Although that incident could not be considered as provoking Xie Xiao, it was still done.
It's just that she never quite understood why Xie Xiao was so obsessed with her. She thought they had always understood each other, and it was just a happy relationship.
Cui Ziying was naturally not able to comment on such a private matter, but looking at his sister's appearance, he didn't know whether he should sympathize with Xie Xiao or not.
Xie Xiao was probably a seventeen-year-old boy when she met her sister, right?
Although Cui Ziying spent his seventeenth year in captivity, it does not mean that he does not understand the feelings of young people. Before he was captured and imprisoned by the Qi tribe, he also had thoughts about Mu Shaoai.
For a boy of this age, it is special after all to meet a woman who makes his heart flutter for the first time.
"Then what are you going to do?" Cui Ziying asked.
Cui Zheyu said: "In the afternoon, he probably suddenly knew my identity and was so emotional that he said that. After I refused, he should have calmed down and thought about it carefully when he went back and realized that something was wrong. If he went to find
You, just leave him alone."
Cui Ziying nodded, and after being silent for a while, he said softly: "Sister, you still like him a little bit, right?"
If you really didn't feel anything at all, you should have used more drastic measures to reject his approach.
Although Xie Xiao is the eldest son of Prince Ancheng, Cui Zheyu is protected by the regent's palace. If the regent is in the capital, he may have to give Prince Ancheng some face. But once Xie Xiao leaves Shangyong, there may not be anything he can do.
Cui Zheyu didn't answer, he just sat at the table and looked at the dancing candlelight on the table, slightly lost in thought.
In the early morning, Luo Junyao opened his eyes from the warm quilt and reached out to touch his side. Unsurprisingly, it was already cold around him.
She slowly sat up from the bed. Lan Yin, who was waiting outside, came in immediately when she heard the movement and said with a smile: "Princess is awake?"
Luo Jun shook his head and asked, "When did Ayan leave?" while getting dressed.
Lan Yin said: "The prince left at the end of Yinshi, and he took his majesty with him."
At the end of Yinshi? Doesn't that mean it's not yet five o'clock in the morning? Luo Junyao secretly sympathized with Xie Yan and Xie Cheng's uncle and nephew.
Lan Yin ordered her servants to bring hot water in. While waiting for Luo Junyao to wash up, she said: "It's windy outside, so the princess should wear more clothes today. Lan Zhen, please bring the light blue silver mink cloak embroidered with plum blossoms that the princess was given as a bride.
Then come out."
Lan Zhen, who was choosing clothes for Luo Junyao, responded and started looking for clothes.
Luo Junyao frowned and asked: "It's windy? How strong can it be?" There are more winds in Shangyong in summer, but there are rarely strong winds in winter.
"It's quite big. The key is that it's very cold. There's ice on the branches outside." Lan Yin said, the snow has melted in the past two days, but the wind blows on the body like a knife, it might as well be snowing.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Luo Junyao packed up and walked out. Sure enough, after taking a few steps, he was hit by a gust of cold wind.
Fortunately, Luo Junyao was wearing a cloak with mink fur on the outside. Except for her face, the wind could not hit her at all. Looking back at the girls behind her who were shrinking from the cold, Luo Junyao said: "You should also wear more clothes, don't freeze.
.”
Lan Zhen said with a smile: "It's just that I felt cold when I suddenly went out and was blown by the cold wind. How can we freeze in the house?"
Luo Jun shook his head and took the people to Xie Cheng's courtyard to have a look.
Xie Cheng was brought into the palace by Xie Yan, but he still lived in the mansion with other children. He still had to get up early to study. He told the steward to take good care of the young masters and not to freeze them, and then went to see if they were still living in the mansion.
Cui Ziying and Qu Tiange.
Yu Mingqiu has now moved out, and Song Wenyue also moved out with his own mansion. Ye Feng was originally from the Regent's Palace and had his own place to live. Now Cui Ziying and the newly arrived Qu Tiange also live in the mansion.
Qu Tiange is indeed very lucky. In the past two or three days, he has completely stopped having a fever and his injuries are no longer getting worse. As long as he takes a good rest, he will be fine soon.
Luo Junyao came out of the courtyard where Qu Tiange lived and went to Cui Ziying's courtyard.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Cui Ziying standing under the eaves, wondering what he was thinking.
Knowing that he was in poor health, Luo Junyao reminded him: "Master Cui, it's windy today, don't stand for a long time."
Cui Ziying came back to his senses and quickly raised his hands and said: "I have met the princess, what are the princess' orders?"
Luo Junyao smiled and said: "What are your orders? I just came to take a look. The weather has been cold these days. Is there anything missing in Mr. Cui's yard? Don't be polite, just tell the manager directly."
Cui Ziying said: "Thank you for your concern, Princess. I just want to say goodbye to the prince and princess."
Luo Jun shook his head and said, "Is it okay for the young master to live in the house?"
Cui Ziying hurriedly said: "Where? With the grace of the prince, the Cui family's old house was returned. Ziying wanted to go back and repair it. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, so he can take his sister home with him. We, siblings, have been together for ten years.
We haven’t spent the New Year together anymore.”
Luo Junyao nodded, "That's it. The prince told me before that the Cui family's old house has not been taken care of for many years, and it may be difficult to live in it for a while. He has already sent people to take care of it before, and maybe it can be completed before the Chinese New Year.
Until then, the young master might as well live peacefully in the mansion. It will be more convenient for Divine Doctor Xue to diagnose the young master's pulse later."
Cui Ziying also knew that the regent and the princess were indeed doing it for their own good. The prince even sent people to repair the Cui family's old house in advance. He was very moved and no longer refused. He just bowed deeply and said, "Thank you, prince and princess."
Luo Junyao smiled and said: "There is no need to be polite. Boss Cui seems a bit stubborn. Mr. Cui, don't worry. If you act coquettishly with her more, she will soften."
"Being...acting like a baby?" Cui Ziying was born as a military commander, and even though he would fall down when the wind blows, Cui Ziying still doesn't know what being a baby is.
Luo Junyao smiled and said, "Isn't it normal for younger siblings to act coquettishly and pretend to be pitiful with their older siblings?"
The key is that she suspects Cui Zheyu is just following this trick.
After all, Xie Xiao doesn't look like a wolf. Cui Zheyu could be stuck with him for so long, probably because he likes little puppies.
Cui Ziying was a little confused and felt vaguely...
Maybe what the princess said is really useful? After all, the princess seems to have a lot of experience in being a sister to others. I heard that the two young masters and the eldest lady of the Luo family love this little sister very much.
"Thank you very much, Princess, for the suggestion." Cui Ziying said.
Luo Junyao nodded with satisfaction and said, "I wish Mr. Cui all the best."
