Xiaozhuang smiled and said, "If the Empress Dowager is here, I'm afraid there will be no need to be so troublesome."

"Yes, the queen mother can always think of the best way."

Qian'er deeply feels the wisdom of her mother and her stupidity.

Seeing her depressed, Xiaozhuang comforted her: "Princess, I know you are pure and unwilling to hurt innocent people. But I think Zhaohui is not innocent. Does she just want to enjoy her choices and do not need to bear the consequences?"

"You are right. If you do something wrong, you will be punished, but I don't want you to take the initiative to harm others. Because the retribution of the cycle of cause and effect will also be imposed on you."

Xiaozhuang's eyes suddenly became silent.

He stared at Qian'er and said, "Actually, I have done many bad things and killed many people. Otherwise, you would not have seen Xiaozhuang today. If I were to say retribution, I would have been ready to go to Avici Hell after death."

"Xiaozhuang, don't say that."

"Princess, everyone's fate is different. I, Zhuang Yu, have made a profit in this life and I don't feel regretful at all."

"No matter what, the high priest is your father, and the people of the U tribe are also good people. We use the prescription to save people, not to harm people."

Qian'er actually doesn't care much about the high priest and the Wu people, but she cares about Xiaozhuang, Xi Niang and Lianhua.

She thought there must be another way.

"Princess," Xiaozhuang suddenly said, "Are you willing to get married to me just? Since you don't want to involve Zhaohui..."

"I don't want to." Qian'er refused without hesitation.

Without waiting for Xiaozhuang to react, Qian'er continued, "Why do you want to pretend to get married? I can really get married with you."

This time it was Xiaozhuang's turn to be shocked.

He was at a loss for a moment and smiled, "Princess, you are the one who has rejected me three times."

"I didn't understand at that time."

"Now, have you figured it out?"

"Yes, there is only one life, and I don't want to make mistakes again and again."

Xiaozhuang's eyes lit up slightly, suppressing his urge to hug her, and said with a restrained smile: "Although the princess is willing, I can't do this."

"Don't you want to marry me?"

"Thinking."

"Then get married."

"If I marry a princess, I must be in Kyoto, report back to the queen mother, get her consent, and then I will hire three or six members and marry them. I will never let the princess get married here in a confused manner."

Qian'er was moved: "I don't care about these things."

"I care."

"You care so much about the sense of marriage, why do you still have to get married with Aohui? After you get married here, you can return to Kyoto and get married again? This will not involve others."

“That’s different.”

"Where is different?" Qian'er couldn't figure it out.

Why would he rather get married with Zhaohui to deceive the high priest than really get married with her?

Xiaozhuang quickly resolved her doubts.

"Because I care about you, I don't care about Zhaohui. Zhaohui's life and death have nothing to do with me." Xiaozhuang said, "I said long ago that I am not a good person. Miss Zhaohui himself is willing, and I did not force her. Besides, the high priest does not allow you and me to get married now."

Qian'er had nothing to say for a moment.

The two discussed some details again. Seeing that the middle of the night had passed, Xiaozhuang stood up and said goodbye.
