As soon as Meier finished speaking, she quickly raised her hand to cover her mouth with a look of disbelief.

She Yue nodded slightly and said: "It's absolutely true. However, this matter will be kept secret for the time being and cannot be known to others."

"Mei'er really can't think of it!" Mei'er, the eldest son, regained consciousness and whispered: "It's no wonder that General Qin wants to march to Kyoto. If he is the prince, he will definitely fight to Kyoto and take back the throne."

She Yue said: "The day he successfully seizes the throne will be the day I leave him."

"leave him?"

"He has never wanted to reveal his identity. I know it's because of me." She Yue said slowly: "But since he is a descendant of Li Tang, he has to shoulder this heavy responsibility whether he is willing or not. My identity cannot be disclosed.

, otherwise it would be blasphemy against the late emperor, so I can’t be with him after all.”

Changsun Meier wanted to say that the relationship between you would not need to be made public at that time, but she understood that Sheyue was a proud and arrogant person at heart and could not accept being Qin Xiao's secret lover forever.

"So whether he is willing or not, as long as he captures Kyoto, he must reveal his identity." She Yue sighed softly: "I have also thought about my way. The Great Heavenly Master went to Qingcheng Mountain in Xichuan. No matter what, he is my father.

He is very old, so I would like to fulfill my filial piety by being by his side and spend his old age with him."

Changsun Meier said softly: "General Qin will definitely not agree if he knows it."

"Doing this is the best result for both him and me." She Yue said: "So I want to make some arrangements in advance. If you are willing to stay with him and treat him well, I can rest assured.

In this way, not only will you have a home, but he will also receive your careful care. You are from the academy, and although you are not a disciple of the Master, you have a deep connection with the academy. With this relationship, the academy will do its best in the future.

support him."

Changsun Meier did not expect She Yue to have such a plan. From this, it can be seen that She Yue really has good intentions for Qin Xiao and is sincere to him, but she is moved in her heart. She said: "The princess's painstaking efforts, if Prince Qin knows,

It will definitely be touching!”

She Yue shook her head and said: "I don't care whether he is moved or not, I just hope he can become a good emperor." Holding Changsun Meier's hand tightly, she said softly: "You have been assisting Xiahou for nearly ten years. I know many government affairs.

It was you who helped her handle everything in an orderly manner. Meier, when it comes to governance, I am far inferior to you, and even the ministers in the court are far less knowledgeable than you. After Li Tang was restored, he wanted to govern the country, but this is

is what he lacks. Although he has extraordinary military talents, it does not mean that he can manage a huge empire, so he must have someone to help him. If you are by his side, you can help him manage the government and will not let him go.

Wrong way."

"Princess, you suddenly said this, Mei'er doesn't even know how to answer." She Yue's instructions seemed to be asking for help, but her grandson Meier was at a loss for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "I really don't know what to say.

."

She Yue smiled and said: "Don't worry, I'm telling you this now just to give you time to think about it. We haven't sent out troops yet, and it won't be possible to conquer Kyoto in a short time, so you still have a lot of time to think about it. Mei'er, I don't

I will force you to do something. If you really don't want to, I won't force it. But I really hope in my heart that you can help him." But he stood up and said softly: "That's it, it's already very late, I don't agree.

You said it. I am very tired and want to go back to sleep. You should also rest early."

Changsun Meier sent She Yue out of the yard. She originally wanted to send She Yue back directly, but she was stopped by She Yue. After She Yue left, Meier returned to the house. Thinking about what She Yue had just said, she felt a little confused.

Absence.

As soon as she sat down, she heard a sound next to her. She turned around and saw a person rolling out from under the bed. Meier was startled. When the person got up, she saw clearly that it was Qin Xiao.

Only then did I realize that Qin Xiao had not left at all, but had hid under the bed.

A dignified general, but he is hiding under the bed. If he tells it, it will be a huge joke.

But Meier immediately thought that Qin Xiao was hiding under the bed, and he must have heard all the conversation between She Yue and her just now. When she thought of Qin Xiao learning that She Yue was going to betroth her to Qin Xiao, Meier's cheeks suddenly turned red.

He was a little shy and didn't dare to look directly at Qin Xiao. He just said, "Why are you hiding under the bed?"

"It was too late just now." Qin Xiao straightened his clothes, "The princess came in too fast, so I had no choice but to roll under the bed."

Mei'er hummed softly and said, "Did you hear what I just said?"

Qin Xiao sat down on the chair, nodded and said, "I heard you all."

"The princess treats you with good intentions, she really gives everything to you." Meier said quietly.

Qin Xiao said: "I will never let her down."

Meier seemed to have thought of something, and stood up in a hurry, saluted Qin Xiao and said: "Meier is rude, please forgive me, Prince!"

"There is no need to call me prince." Qin Xiao shook his head and said, "Li Tang does not have princes, only princesses!"

Meier was startled, but Qin Xiao smiled lightly and said: "The late emperor was murdered by Xia Hou, and Li Tang's country was usurped. Naturally, I want to avenge the late emperor and get back everything that was taken away. But the princess is not wrong, I can fight

The world, but it may not be able to govern the world well. And I have never thought of becoming the emperor myself."

"You mean!"

"But the Tang Dynasty really needs Sister Changsun to assist in governance." Qin Xiao looked at Meier and said: "The wealth should not flow to outsiders. What the princess said is right. I don't want Sister Changsun to marry another man."

Meier was shocked and said: "I don't understand!"

"I will take good care of you." Qin Xiao said: "The princess wants to betroth you to me, I accept it!"

Mei'er was stunned for a moment, but she didn't expect Qin Xiao to be so direct and straightforward. Her pretty face flushed and she said anxiously: "Princess, you are joking, don't take it seriously, it's not like that!"

"Sister Zhangsun means you don't want to marry me?" Qin Xiao asked directly.

"No!" Meier said hurriedly, but immediately felt that she had said something wrong, "I mean, I haven't thought about these things yet!"

Qin Xiao sighed: "General Changsun died for the country. Although I didn't get along with him for a long time, we formed a deep friendship in Jiangnan. After the general was killed, I really thought about taking good care of Sister Changsun in the future, but there are some things I can't say.

Exit. The princess has spoken out for me today, is my sister willing to accept my care?"

"You ask this, and I don't know how to answer." Meier said awkwardly, "You never spoke so directly before!"

Qin Xiao said with a smile: "I naturally have to be honest in front of my sister. When I was in Kyoto, I was taken care of by my sister. At that time, I thought that if I had the opportunity in the future, I would try my best to repay her."

When Meier heard this, she frowned, thought for a moment, and said in a somewhat indifferent tone: "His Highness is the prince of the Tang Dynasty. Whether you admit it or not, this is a fact. I am just a slave, and I cannot be as high as Your Highness."

Qin Xiao was startled, but he felt that Meier's tone seemed a little unhappy, but for a moment he really didn't understand why.

"Sister Zhangsun, when I was of low status and my sister was an official in the palace, we didn't care about our status and took great care of me. Why are we talking about status now?"

Meier bit her lip and finally said: "So you want to take care of me because you think I took care of you and you want to repay me?"

When Qin Xiao heard this, he immediately realized that what he said was completely wrong.

There is no woman in this world who expects her partner to take care of her in return.

"This is just the reason on the surface." Qin Xiao knew that he must not say the wrong thing again at this time, his voice became extremely soft, and he said softly: "Actually, when I first saw my sister in the palace, I was shocked.

At that time, I thought to myself, I don’t know who is so lucky to marry my sister in the end. Later, my sister took care of me several times, and I was grateful, but more importantly, I felt that my sister was not only beautiful, but also had excellent conduct.

, I thought at that time that if I could marry a kind and beautiful woman like my sister, I would have no regrets even if I died. But this was just a thought in my mind, I didn’t dare to think too much.”

Qin Xiao's words were already very straightforward. Meier entered the palace at a young age to serve Xiahou, and soon gained favor. She mostly came into contact with palace maids and eunuchs, who were naturally very respectful to her and did not have many opportunities.

Contact with other men.

Even if she did come into contact with some men and knew her status as a minister, they would all be courteous. Who would dare to be disrespectful to this beautiful saint's confidant in the slightest.

Qin Xiao was the first to express his love to her so straightforwardly, but Meier, who had never experienced anything before, blushed and her heart skipped a beat at these words. She panicked and said, "Stop talking!" No!

Dare to face Qin Xiao, twisted his waist, turned around, and turned his back to Qin Xiao.

Under the light, Meier's plump and graceful figure was very attractive. Qin Xiao walked slowly behind Meier, already smelling the faint fragrance emanating from Meier in his nose, and looked at her knife-like shoulders.

, I didn’t know where the courage came from for a moment, and I actually stepped forward and hugged Meier from behind.

Changsun Meier never expected that Qin Xiao would be so bold, her beauty turned pale, and she was about to struggle, but Qin Xiao had already come close to her ear and whispered: "I will not let the princess leave, and I will also take good care of you for the rest of my life."

Being hugged by Qin Xiao's strong arms, Meier felt that all this was simply unbelievable, but for a moment she asked out of nowhere: "Then you really like me instead of repaying me?"

Qin Xiao let go of his hand, gently put it on Mei'er's shoulder, turned Mei'er around, looked at her watery eyes, Qin Xiao smiled slightly, and said softly: "At first glance
