After chasing after people for ten years, how could Zhou Yiru give up so easily?
Even though her beautiful past had already been covered by a layer of dust due to Zhu Youtang's denial, Zhou Yiru did not think so. Zhu Youtang's feelings were not fake, because Zhou Yiru was not an idiot, so Zhou Yiru could differentiate between genuine or fake feelings.
”Yesterday was your birthday, so I hope it's not too late to give you a birthday present.”
”This is the East Wind Flower Rain Diagram. If you like it, that's good.” However, this kite was not created by me, it was created by seeing it. ” Zhu Youtang had only drawn a picture of a hundred flowers.
”Even if the kite wasn't made by you, cousin, I still like it a lot. I know that you will definitely help me, thank you, Cousin. ” The etiquette Zhou Yiru received did not allow him to make any intimate movements towards Zhu Youtang, so hugging was already the closest limit for the two of them.
Zhu Youtang clearly saw Zhou Yiru standing in front of him and laughing, but in the blink of an eye, the scene changed to two people facing each other. Zhou Yiru did not want to see Zhou Yiru's crying and painful expression.
”Cousin, I like you. We were childhood friends for so many years, why can't we be together?” Cousin, if you can't marry me, why didn't you tell me earlier? ”
Yi Ru, I'm sorry, I didn't really want to use your feelings. ”Yi Ru, we can talk about the dangers outside after we go back.”
Zhu Youtang didn't know why he didn't have imperial guards by his side or why he had confronted Zhou Yiru on the street. But looking at the chaotic scene, Zhu Youtang knew that this was not a good place to talk to.
”Yiru, be good and go back with cousin.” Zhu Youtang wanted to pull Zhou Yiru and leave, but no matter how hard Zhu Youtang tried, Zhou Yiru had still left him little by little.
”Yi Ru, danger.”
Seeing the masked man behind Zhou Yiru, Zhu Youtang finally could not help but shout out.
”Your Highness,” the one who had lit the candle was Gu Jianzhi, who had just arrived after hearing the sound. Under the light of the candle, Zhu Youtang knew that he was only dreaming. However, this kind of nightmare left Zhu Youtang with lingering fear in his heart, and even made him feel terrified.
Amongst the brothers, the one Zhu Youtang cared the most about was his cousin. The injuries he had caused could no longer be healed. Zhu Youtang could not watch helplessly as something happened to Zhou Yiru.
”Did imperial guards escort the princess back safely? Nothing happened on the way, right? ” Because after Zhu Youtang had gotten up from this nightmare, he seemed to have lost his spirit, and even appeared to be in a bit of a trance.
Zhu Youtang, whose head was drenched in sweat, looked as if he had just been fished out of water, ”Your Highness, please wipe it with the brocade handkerchief.” Gu Jianzhi was not able to see what Zhu Youtang was like, so he gave the brocade handkerchief that he carried around with him to Zhu Youtang.
”The princess was indeed safe at home. After speaking to the emperor, she returned to the Tzu Ning Palace and left with the princess. imperial guards sent the two of them back before returning. ”
Knowing that Zhu Youtang was asking for peace of mind, Gu Jianzhi also gave him a peace of mind.
”That's good, that's good.”
The relationship between cousin to cousin relationship had finally come to an end. Zhou Yiru had not entered the palace for several days already. Because she was busy with her wedding, Zhu Youtang did not have much time to care about Zhou Yiru's current situation.
Although the emcee did not need to worry about the crown prince, the dress arrangement of the Eastern Palace was already changing. The Eastern Palace meant that many of the crown prince's habits had to be broken. This was not a small problem.
”Your daughter will never be able to show her filial piety in front of her parents. Please accept your daughter's respect.”
The Zhang Family was not a legitimate royal relative now, so the Zhang Mansion was still flourishing in Cangzhou. Although the Zhang Shan was already a substitute for the Office of the Crown Prince, it was only because the Emperor wanted his own family's identity to look better.
Therefore, after Zhang Siyan left the Imperial City, he was escorted by the imperial guards and the imperial guards back to the Zhang Family. It was obvious that the Crown Princess would not go from Cangzhou to the capital when he was married. In this way, the Zhang Mansion would be exceptionally important to the capital city.
Therefore, there was still one more thing the crown prince wanted to do, which was to arrange living quarters for his Yue Clan. If the Crown Princess wanted to marry, he had to marry from his parents' family before he could comply with the rules.
”How is the search for the Zhang Clan's residence going?” The day chosen by the imperial overseer wasn't long away. The emperor had been urging the crown prince, and the crown prince himself could only let the Eastern Palace's Guardian General do things more efficiently.
”Your Highness, the manor has two places you can choose from, but each of these two places have their own drawbacks, so this servant does not know what to do.”
After some deliberation, Zhu Youtang finally chose the residence closest to the Imperial City Gate as the Zhang Family's residence. This way, the marriage contract would be easier to arrange.
The reason why Zhang Siyan was bidding farewell to his parents in Cangzhou was only to make the Zhang couple feel at ease. Now that they had returned to the Zhang Family, Zhang Siyan was only prepared to marry, but not really. It was also because of this that Xie Qian felt that if he did not say something, he would definitely regret it in the future.
Outside Zhang Mansion, Xie Qian finally had a day where he was able to rest and finally knew where Zhang Siyan was. Xie Qian endured it and endured. In the end, his emotions triumphed over his rationality and he paid a visit to the Zhang Mansion.
”Alright, bring Young Master Xie over to the big brother's territory. ”Tell Young Master Xie where I'll meet him.”
