Lin Changan was immersed in the joy of her rebirth and did not notice that Qi Muqing, who was beside her, was shocked by her strange behavior.
Qi Muqing shook Changan's shoulder." Lin Changan, wake up! What happened to you?"
Only then did Chang 'an remember that Qi Muqing was still by his side. His memories returned to this year-the 16th year of King Qi Yong. The funniest thing was that in the past year, she had broken her head because of a kite. In order to help Lin Changning retrieve a kite that had fallen into a dry well in the Cold Palace, she had broken her head.
Now, it seemed that this was all part of Lin Changning's scheme. He clearly wanted to kill her!
It was the man in front of her who saved her. Back then, when she woke up and saw a strange man beside her, she felt nothing but fear and disgust. Hence, she treated him as an enemy and formed a feud.
Now, it seemed that she had to admit that the man was really beautiful. She still remembered that the words 'handsome and beautiful' were used by the young girls in the Qi Kingdom to describe the Third Prince of the Qi Kingdom.
However, it was a pity. At that time, no matter if it was in her eyes or in her heart, other than Qi Muyuan, she could not tolerate any other man. Back then, when she had just woken up, she had a big fight with Qi Muqing. Her undisguised disgust had made her and Qi Muqing become sworn enemies. In the days that followed, they would quarrel every time they saw each other, and they did not like each other.
Now that she had a chance to live again, Chang 'an even smiled at Qi Muqing. She would not be so reckless anymore.
Qi Muqing's expression did not seem too bad. Chang An cleared his throat.""Third Prince, don't mind him. Cough cough…I had a nightmare just now, so I was a little scared.”
Chang 'an blinked her eyes, her peach blossom eyes rippling with light, as if there were thousands of feelings in them, truly alluring.
Qi Muqing felt as if he was sick. No matter when or where he met Lin Chang 'an, his heartbeat and hidden happiness were hard to tell outsiders.
He probably liked Chang 'an, but Qi Muqing, who was not good at this, did not know his feelings. In the past, perhaps because Lin Chang 'an would embarrass him from time to time, he would rather suppress himself and go against Lin Chang' an! He was not willing to delve into what he felt.
Nightmare-Chang 'an thought that she had already given an explanation, but Qi Muqing clearly did not intend to accept it. She moved closer and closer and raised her eyebrows."Are you tongue-tied? I'm not angry! Why are you so nervous, it's just a nightmare-what kind of nightmare could scare you like this?”
Qi Muqing was older than Chang 'an by a year, but he was not just a year older mentally. He had always been suspicious of others' words, so how could he believe Lin Chang 'an's words?
Her expression when she woke up was clearly filled with great joy and hatred.
Chang 'an felt an inexplicable warmth in her ears. She could feel Qi Muqing's hot breath when she spoke, and the tips of her ears instantly turned red. Even if she was reborn, she still could not stand such blatant teasing.
The bed was actually very wide, but Chang 'an still felt inexplicably crowded at the moment. Even though there were only two people, she moved her butt back and mumbled,""Third Prince, it's better not to get so close. It's not too…comfortable.”
Qi Muqing curled her lips." Then, what kind of nightmare did you have? Or rather, what kind of nightmare could make you happy, sad, and resentful?”
Chang 'an thought of a word-beautiful tone. No flowery words could describe Qi Muqing's handsome face and his deep and pleasant voice.
How could the Creator favor this man so much? Not only did he give him such a perfect appearance, but he also gave him a supreme status. Everything he had might not be something that thousands of ordinary people in the world could obtain even if they worked hard for their entire lives. This was not fair at all, but the word 'fair' was rarely recognized in the world. To a certain extent, your birth had already determined your future.
His thoughts…seemed to have gone too far. When he came back to his senses, there was a lingering bitterness between his lips and teeth. Chang An grinned."You don't want to know."
The few heart-wrenching things that he had experienced in his previous life, no matter which one he took out, it was probably something that he, who had not yet performed the ceremony of the crown, could not imagine.
"Hmm?"
Qi Muqing found it strange. Why would Lin Chang 'an inadvertently reveal such a sorrowful temperament? He really could not figure out why she, the daughter of the Prime Minister who had been pampered, would end up like this.
"It's nothing."
Qi Muqing looked at Lin Chang 'an.""You're grieving, why-why?”
Chang 'an looked at Qi Muqing strangely as if she was blaming him. She did not understand why he was so persistent today. In her impression, he was actually generous. He treated his subordinates, courtiers, and even when he became Qi Muyuan's prisoner, he did not show any hostility. He was always kind--except when he was facing her.
Or to some extent, he was good at self-control.
But even so, Chang 'an was still unwilling to tell him. She shook her head.""It's just a nightmare. There's no need to say it! Besides, I don't want to relive it again! I don't want to!"
Qi Muyuan furrowed his brows. He felt as if he had caught onto something, but it flashed past his eyes, and he felt as if there was nothing at all.
Chang 'an looked at Qi Muqing's slightly furrowed brows. It was a dissatisfied expression.
"I want to go back," she said calmly.”
I want to go back. It was not a discussion, but a decision.
At this moment, Qi Muyuan and Chang 'an looked at each other. After a long time, he seemed to finally understand why Lin Chang' an was different. Yes, her indifference, her bearing, and her calm eyes when she looked at him were what most noble women lacked. Most of them were too weak and pretentious.
In a high position, from the time he knew about people, he had countless beauties around him. The daughters of high officials, even the daughters of noble families who were related to the royal family, and even his father's concubine, Consort Hui, were an example. Their gazes were filled with obvious admiration.
They admired his appearance, his status, and his power. Not a living person like him.
They would say that his highness was really handsome!
They would say that His Highness was really the most handsome man in the Qi Kingdom!
He didn't want a woman like this unless he just wanted to vent his desires.
Perhaps Qi Muqing was too engrossed in his thoughts, but Chang 'an did not receive his reply and was dissatisfied."Did you hear what I said? Qi Muqing! Er, wangye…"
It was disrespectful to call the prince by his name so casually. Chang 'an realized what she had said and looked at Qi Muqing nervously.
"You're quite bold?" Qi Muqing's face was tense, but in reality, it was as if he had heard something funny." Can't help but reveal your true nature?”
At this moment, all she felt was regret. She had called his name too smoothly in her previous life. She had accidentally said it out loud.
Qi Muqing smiled as he looked at Chang 'an." However, it's not bad for you to call me that. However, you can only do that when there's no one around-"
Chang 'an blushed and was at a loss. What did he mean by' not bad, only when no one is around?' They didn't seem to be that familiar with each other, right?
"What's wrong?"
"I want to go home!" Chang 'an looked at Qi Muqing with a determined gaze and said in a cold tone,""Send me back!"
He did not know what had happened in the Prime Minister's Residence after not returning from Chang 'an overnight. Qi Muqing did not make things difficult for him and nodded."Alright."
He looked at the sky outside. It looked like it had just lit up.
"Let's change."
Chang An looked at his own body. Why did he change his clothes?
He slowly raised his head and looked at Qi Muqing, feeling a little uneasy."Who changed my clothes?"
Qi Muqing looked at Chang 'an's nervous expression and found it funny. He rolled his eyes and said as if he was teasing a small animal,""This king."
Chang 'an was furious. Qi Muqing's gaze made it seem as if it was only right and proper for him to help her change her clothes! It was natural? What kind of relationship did they have?
Chang 'an was very angry." You…You, you're shameless!"”
Annoyed! However, his years of upbringing made him unable to say anything too unpleasant. After living for two lifetimes, this was the first time that Chang 'an felt that his years of upbringing were so useless!
At the critical moment, he couldn't even say a word.
"Hahaha…I'm just lying to you. With this king's incomparably noble status, how could I lower myself to change a woman's clothes? What a joke!"
Chang 'an looked at Qi Muqing in a daze. She was embarrassed and at a loss. It made sense. He was a tsundere to begin with. Why would he help her change?
Damn it, he actually fooled her like this?
Chang An gritted his teeth." I didn't expect that the Third Prince, the current Prince Qing, would be as rude as a lecher!"”
A lecher? His lecherous side was only shown to her. However, Qi Muqing did not say anything.
Qi Muqing's nonchalant look made Chang 'an even angrier, but he did not know where to vent his anger. He smiled and helped Chang 'an up. He looked at her sitting by the bed and raised his eyebrows."What's wrong? Why aren't you changing your shoes?" Why are you sitting there without moving?
" I, I don't know..." Having lived a pitiful life in vain, Chang 'an finally felt that she was really useless at this moment. She could not even do such a simple thing as changing clothes. In her previous life, she had lived like a prince and loved Qi Muyuan deeply. She did not even know how to do such a simple thing as changing clothes!
When he heard the word 'won't,' Qi Muqing suddenly felt an indescribable feeling. It was as if he felt unworthy for someone or something, but it was not entirely true.
They looked at each other in silence. In the end, Qi Muqing spoke first.
"There are some truths that you should understand. Humans! No matter how glorious a person was at that time, he had to wait until there was no one around him to rely on. Then, he could also take good care of himself and not let others talk about him.”
Chang 'an looked at Qi Muqing blankly. It was as if he was looking at the imprisoned Prince Qing, who stood alone in the setting sun, watching alone, watching…
Why did she feel that he was so far away from her even though he was right in front of her, so far that she couldn't touch him even if she saw him clearly? So far that even though he was right in front of her, he was far away from her like the end of the world.
" How could it be…" Chang An murmured.
"How do you know all this?"
Qi Muqing smiled bitterly." You have to know that my mother passed away when I was born. Since I was young, there was only one servant by my side. I washed my own clothes when I was five…until I followed Consort Xian…"
It was as if she was looking at a five-year-old child drawing water from a well that was as tall as her. Her tender hands could not pinch the soap. She was so sensible that it made one's heart ache. Compared to her pampered life and the pampered life of most of the descendants of the royal family, Qi Muqing's youth seemed to have been too difficult.
However, at this moment, his voice was so calm, as if he was talking about someone else's matter that had nothing to do with him.
"Did you have such a hard time at that time?”Chang 'an's voice trembled as he spoke. There was disbelief in his voice, and he looked at Qi Muqing with pity.
Compassion?
However, Qi Muqing smiled. He actually did not think that it was that great. Those past hardships were also a part of his prosperous life. He never felt that the past was different from the present.
The good and the bad were all a part of life, and every part was filled with preciousness and indispensable.
Qi Muqing's gaze was calm as he looked at Chang 'an, who was still immersed in her own confusion." It's nothing. You, on the other hand, shouldn't be like this all the time."
Chang 'an did not know what to say to answer Qi Muqing. Perhaps she did not want it to be like this. It was just that she had made a mistake in her previous life and now she had to take the initiative to admit her mistake. However, there were many things that could not be made up for just by admitting that she had made a mistake.
After a long time, he finally lived up to Qi Muqing's expectations. Chang 'an nodded with some difficulty,""Good!" In Qi Muqing's eyes, this action was as though he had made a solemn promise.
Qi Muqing smiled." Alright!"
