After the divorce, the princess was forced to raise a sickly villain

"How is it?" Zhong Jin saw her coming out and locked his eyes on her face. Unsurprisingly, she turned pale at this time. "What did Her Majesty say?"

Qi Yue raised her head slightly and looked at the elegant and handsome Master Shen in front of her, feeling a little complicated for a moment.

She shook her head, said nothing, and walked outside the palace.

Zhong Jin turned around to follow and said in a casual manner: "Is Her Majesty the Queen any different from what you imagined?"

Qiyue paused slightly and frowned: "I never dared to raise my head, so I didn't see His Majesty's face clearly."

Zhong Zhongjin was silent, and then he said something out of nowhere: "When you attacked me, weren't you very courageous?"

Qiyue glanced at him expressionlessly.

Thinking of what Her Majesty the Queen said, she felt a little uncomfortable.

Zhongjin gives people the impression that he is cunning, treacherous and careless, but he can actually do good deeds without leaving his name?

Well, she must have misunderstood him before.

Qiyue has always been brave enough to take responsibility and admit her mistakes. The two of them walked outside the palace gate and she whispered in a low voice: "Thank you, Mr. Shen, for helping me speak in front of His Majesty."

He is even willing to guarantee his life.

They are neither relatives nor friends. In fact, there is no need to risk their wealth and life for an unrelated person.

Zhong Jin was surprised: "You admitted that you are a girl in front of His Majesty?"

Qiyue nodded.

"You said it yourself, or His Majesty asked."

"I said it myself." Qiyue raised her eyes slightly and looked at the endless sky. "Instead of being afraid of others knowing, it is better to admit it on your own initiative and die early and be reborn."

If you are lucky enough to survive, you will be able to feel at ease from now on.

Now it seems that she made the right bet.

His Majesty did not kill her, and she also knew that Zhong Jin was a good person, not as cunning, selfish, sinister and dirty as she thought before.

Thinking of this, Qi Yue turned around and saluted Zhong Jin solemnly: "Thank you, Master Shen. Many students have been rude before. I hope that Master Shen will not take into account the faults of others. The students will be grateful."

Zhong Jin was silent for a moment.

He didn't expect Qi Yue to be so courageous. She was so afraid that she didn't even dare to look up at Her Majesty the Queen's face, but she dared to take the initiative to reveal the fact that she was a girl and directly admitted the crime of deceiving the emperor by disguising herself as a man. ?

She is really not afraid of being beheaded.

After being silent for a while, he said: "I don't want your gratitude."

Qiyue said: "Then what do you want, sir?"

"Please pledge yourself to me," Zhong Zhongjin said, "I still need a wife."

Qiyue's face changed slightly, she gave him a cold look, turned around and left.

"I am telling the truth this time and am not joking with you." Zhong Zhongjin followed her, "I am considered young and promising. Now I have been promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Although I was born as a commoner, I am still considered a middle-aged man in the court. If you have real power, I can still protect you in the future.”

Qi Yue responded indifferently.

"I have kept myself clean these past few years and have never had any relationships with women I shouldn't have." Zhong Zhongjin continued to promote himself, "My father urged me to get married from time to time, but I never met a girl who made my heart beat, so I declined. So far, I have not even held hands with the girl's family, and there are no concubines in the courtyard. I will definitely be devoted to my wife in the future and will never mess around with women outside. "

Qiyue paused slightly, not because she was moved by what he said, but because she felt that compared to his unscrupulous way of speaking at this moment, he actually interceded for her in front of His Majesty, and even risked his own life at the critical moment. .

Her Majesty the Queen also said that if she does something she shouldn't do in the future, Shen Zhongjin will also be implicated by her.

Thinking about it this way, in fact, Zhong Zhongjin's fate is closely related to her to a certain extent.

"The student has not considered marriage for the time being." Qi Yue narrowed her eyes and said seriously, "The student is willing to risk losing his head by dressing up as a man to take the scientific examination in order to achieve good results in his official career. Your Excellency should understand How strong is the student’s determination to become an official, the student doesn’t want to think about his children’s personal relationship for the time being.”

Zhong Jin said: "In fact, there is no conflict between personal love between children and official career."

Qiyue frowned: "But students are not interested in their children's personal relationships, and they don't plan to get married in this life."

"Why?"

"It's unfair to a woman to marry." Qi Yue snorted coldly, "Take care of your husband and raise your children, serve your parents-in-law, and carry on the family line... I don't want to be trapped in the house all my life and be a boudoir woman dependent on men."

You even have to face the battle between wives and concubines. After you have a child, the child is already a legitimate concubine, which is boring.

Zhong Zhongjin smiled: "What a coincidence. The woman I like will never be trapped in a house all her life. She will definitely have the freedom she wants. She can do whatever she wants. She can have children when she wants. No need to When a husband raises a child, it is enough for the husband and wife to raise their children together. As for serving the parents-in-law...it is not that the Shen family does not have servants and maids, and there is no need for the daughter-in-law to give up her official career to serve. "

As he said that, he reached out and rubbed her head: "Qiyue, I am serious. I am not joking with you, nor am I trying to make fun of you. You can take your time to reply to this matter and think about it carefully."

Qi Yue lowered her head and said nothing.

What he said is undoubtedly very tempting. You don't have to look after your husband and raise your children, abide by the three obediences and the four virtues, you don't have to be busy passing on the family line, serving your parents-in-law, and you don't have to strictly abide by etiquette. You can come out and show your face, and make achievements in your career openly.

But how many men’s promises can be easily believed?

"I'll think about it." She could only agree to this for now, "Let's talk about it after the palace examination."

Shen Chongjin nodded: "After the palace examination, if you are willing to marry me, we will get married. If you don't want to, I will tell everyone in the city that I like you."

Qi Yue's expression froze: "Sir Shen threatened me again?"

"How can this be a threat?" Shen Chongjin smiled slightly, "I am pursuing my wife openly, letting everyone in the imperial city know that I like you and I will marry you in this life."

Qi Yue said coldly: "Everyone in the imperial city knows that I am a man."

Shen Chongjin shrugged: "It is enough for me to know that you are a woman."

Qi Yue was so angry that her lungs hurt: "Aren't you afraid that people will call you a gay?"

"No." Shen Chongjin said, "When people live, the most important thing is to be happy."

Important as hell.

Qi Yue took a deep breath, turned around and left.

This person is simply unreasonable.
