Episode 12: Xiao Changmin’s proposal to marry Shen Yingnuo was rejected

It was windy in the long street, and Xiao Huayong, dressed in embroidered robes, severely slapped the gangster who shot the cold arrow at Shen Xihe's feet.The gangster would rather die than reveal the mastermind behind it, but Xiao Huayong has already seen through everything - the mastermind is Gu Qingshu who is hiding in the dark.He calmly and secretly channeled his inner strength, which frightened Gu Qingshu's horse into a sudden madness and almost fell off the cliff, frightening her out of her wits.Shen Xihe did not take her life, but only punished her slightly to let her experience the fear of dying, and warned her sternly that if she did evil again, there would be no room for mercy next time.In the stone pavilion in the suburbs, Xiao Huayong had already prepared hot tea and was waiting for Shen Xihe. His few words were full of unabashed teasing. The servants standing there felt their ears burning. No one could have imagined that the usually majestic prince could be so straightforward and enthusiastic.

It was drizzling, and the raindrops made the bamboo leaves rustle. Looking at the rain curtain, Shen Xihe blurted out that he always liked rainy days the most. He suddenly came back to his senses just after he finished speaking - there was little rain all year round in the northwest. This unintentional remark almost exposed his identity.Xiao Huayong did not ask further questions, but took out the Supa and gently wiped the raindrops on her cheeks, saying softly that he hoped she would never have to hide anything in front of him.On the other side, Xiao Changqing promised Gu Qingshu to the Chu family who was far away, hoping to teach her a lesson.Gu Qingshu refused to marry at the risk of death, but Xiao Changqing remained unmoved. She was unwilling to accept the marriage and decided to use her grandmother's old friendship with the Queen Mother to serve in the palace, just to get close to the prince and marry into the Tian family like her sister Gu Qingzhi.

After nightfall, Xiao Changqing found Shen tide and apologized to Gu Qingshu. He confessed that he had saved Gu Qingshu just to preserve the Shen family bloodline. Now he has found a destination for her to marry far away and will never bother her again in the future.He didn't understand why Shen Xihe let Gu Qingshu go so easily because he always wanted to take revenge. Shen Xihe only said that he was thinking about his old relationship with Gu Qingzhi.Xiao Changqing took the opportunity to take out the paintings of his late wife Gu Qingzhi and gave them to her, and talked about the past of the two to test their attitude. However, Shen Xihe directly threw the paintings and old letters into the fire pot, reminding him not to cling to the past that has become empty.Such a ruthless temper made Xiao Changqing feel that she looked more and more like the Gu Qingzhi in his memory.
