Chapter 7 — The Lord Changes Destiny

I raised the teacup in front of me and gently blew the foam on top. "I already have someone in my heart. That person is very petty and jealous. I'm afraid he won't be able to see me entangled with another man." "So, I can't give you a chance." Ta Quan Lan's face became ugly, as if someone had just slapped him in front of everyone. He was unwilling to justify himself: "What he can do, I can also do! Princess, before... before I was just..." Just what? If you don't like someone, you won't leave that person even a little hope. Don't use the name of responsibility to imprison another person for life. On this point alone, Ta Quan Lan is not worthy of me. I calmly interrupted him, with a bit of mockery in my voice. "What do the past and now have to do with each other? Does Master Ta Qin think that everything will stay in place, waiting for you to turn around?" "Master Ta Qin, you should still play this song Phuong Cau Hoang for people who really want to hear it. After all, not everyone likes to eat what others have chewed and left behind." 13 The news that I publicly rejected Ta Quan Lan was like a gust of wind, quickly spreading. throughout the capital. Unexpectedly, there were not many voices criticizing us. Maybe it's because I've been constantly sick since I was a child. To pray for some blessings for myself, over the years I have raised money many times to build bridges, distribute porridge to help the people, and have also gained some good reputation in the mouths of people. I have never been inferior to anyone before. On the contrary, it is unknown where Van Te drank the entire jar of sour vinegar. That day, he took my pulse, his fingertips resting on my wrist, but his eyebrows furrowed even tighter. I thought something was wrong with my body, and I felt a little uneasy. Unexpectedly, he checked his pulse for a long time. Finally, he just sighed indignantly and let go. "Unfortunately, I only know a few tasteless treatments." He lowered his eyes, his long eyelashes casting a pale shadow under his eyes. "The only thing I can show off is this face. Unlike other people, I know how to play a few songs to please her in front of everyone." I couldn't help but laugh. Laughing for a long time, I stopped and looked at him seriously. "But there are thousands and thousands of doctors in the world, but the only person I like is you." These words made Van Te stunned. It seemed like he didn't expect me to speak so frankly. A thin layer of red immediately appeared on his delicate and handsome face, even the tips of his ears were stained. He took a deep breath, his throat moved slightly, then said in a low voice: "You... why are you always so nice?" His exclamation made me a little curious. "Did you know me before?" Van Te smiled, his clear eyes rippled with gentle waves. "How could you not know?" "During the flower-blossoming period, the princess will pray for the soldiers who died in battle. Last year, when an epidemic happened, she brought her own wedding clothes." Go get food, just to save the people." "Even if a child is carelessly lost on the road, you will patiently comfort him and send someone to bring him back home safely." He recounted every little thing we had done over the years, some things even I was about to forget. "I like you because you yourself deserve to be loved, without any chance." He held my hand, his palm dry and warm. "A long time ago, a long time ago. here, I've started to like you." "I studied medicine in the hope that one day, you might need me." 14 I was silent for a moment, as if my heart was filled with something, both bitter and full. "What if..." I asked softly. "If I love someone else, I won't be able to see you for the rest of my life."

So what?" He smiled. That smile brought a bit of relief. "As long as you are safe, whether you like me or not is not important." He was so sincere that it seemed like the next second he could rip out his heart for me to see. I only felt the warm water in my heart spreading throughout my limbs, unable to speak. In the end, I could only raise my head and ask him in a low voice: "Hearing these words, I am very happy. Can I kiss you?" Van Te's pupils immediately shrunk. He did not answer, just bowed his head, using his actions to give me the answer. It was a very light kiss, but also extremely affectionate. It's just that human desires are not always easily satisfied. Since being kissed for the first time, Van Te always wanted a second, third time. He would take advantage of the moment to feel my pulse and secretly kiss my cheek. When I drank. Normally, he would ask for a kiss in exchange for a piece of jam. While kissing, he warmly asked me: "My lord, when will you finally give me a title?" Do you really want me to follow you around for the rest of my life? "Reputation is indeed an extremely important thing. But before I came before the queen to ask for a decree of marriage, the border sent an emergency military alert. Fighting broke out. The envoy we sent to negotiate peace was beheaded and hung on the wall of the city.
