Chapter 26
"Why do you keep staring at me? Is there something on my face? Or am I...strange?" Cheng Muqing couldn't hold back and asked this question.

"None." Lin Heng shook his head.

"then you……"

Suddenly, a flash of light pierced her skull.

what!It's because I look so good-looking!So it made him look at himself frequently!
Cheng Muqing was stunned.No wonder he was withdrawn, the prince who had never been close to anyone would be so close to him.It turned out that he was overwhelmed by his own beauty!

She just said, although her skin was a little dark and rough because she was a court lady in Qiguo a few years ago.But she has a good foundation, and when she was in the boudoir, her skin was as smooth as fat, and her appearance was as beautiful as a flower.

But thinking about it this way, she became a little cautious.

Cheng Muqing sat upright, raised his slender hands, and ate slowly, elegantly like a noble princess.

"You..." Lin Heng was puzzled.

This child must have been overwhelmed by my elegant and noble behavior again!

"Aren't you uncomfortable?" Lin Heng said bluntly.

"..." Cheng Muqing's lips twitched.

"Small bites won't make the meat fragrant." Lin Heng picked up a large piece of mutton and delivered it to her bowl, "It's comfortable for you to eat big bites at the beginning."

"..."

"Let me make a meal for you." Lin Heng picked up a cabbage leaf neatly, wrapped it with meat, sprinkled it with seasoning, and handed it to her.

Looking at the palm-sized vegetables and meat, Cheng Muqing felt that he should not have to maintain the image of a noble girl.

She took it and stuffed it into her mouth.

"Shouldn't you enjoy eating like this?" Lin Heng smiled knowingly.

"Wang Ye..." Cheng Muqing chewed the meat in his mouth, and his eyes suddenly brightened again.

Does the prince like the real self?
It seems that it was his cute side that made the prince fall!
I thought that the other party only liked my beauty, but I didn't expect that it was my interesting soul!

"Huh?" Lin Heng tilted his head to look at her.

"I'm so touched." Cheng Muqing spoke the truth.With her temperament, she was not liked since she was a child.

After all, in this era when virtuous and virtuous women are the most important thing, her temperament is really not attractive.

Even if you meet someone you like, you will be rejected because of your own personality.

"Ok?"

"Your rice bag is pretty good." Cheng Muqing smashed it twice, "It's actually the same as mine."

"This is what you taught me back then." Lin Heng raised his head cautiously, with a trace of expectation in his eyes.

She taught?Cheng Muqing was taken aback, "I never taught you..."

"Yes... I remember wrongly." Lin Heng lowered his eyes.

The atmosphere in the room was inexplicably awkward.

"Come... eat more meat and eat more. You see that you are skinny, eat more." Cheng Muqing yelled, breaking the embarrassment, "Actually, it's better to replace cabbage with lettuce, but it's a pity that lettuce is hard to buy in winter... I'll take you to bake it in spring."

"Okay." Lin Heng nodded.

"You have to eat the food too." Cheng Muqing said, and brought him some food.

"Well... I..." The corners of his lips were murmured, as if something was stuck in his throat.

"what?"

"Can I...can follow you?" Lin Heng quietly grabbed her sleeve, "Will you take me with you wherever you go in the future? I will definitely not cause you any trouble."

Do you like to stick to yourself all the time?Cheng Muqing froze.

"Because you saved me...I feel at ease by your side." Lin Heng hurriedly added as if afraid that she would not agree.

saved me?
The flames of excitement were instantly extinguished.I thought he liked me, but I didn't expect that he was just trying to feel safe? !

Probably in his eyes, he is a stronger existence than Cui Huwei?After all, he was rescued from fire and water in Qiguo a year ago, and now he is brought out of the devil's claws.

"Don't worry, you are safe in the palace now." Cheng Muqing said while eating, "I have arranged a lot of servants in your courtyard. By the way, there is another one named Mingchen, who is my new arrangement for you. Boy. How are you feeling?"

"Okay..." Lin Heng nodded.

The night was dark, and the orange-red lanterns lit under the eaves swayed with the wind.

The north wind howled, and the wooden windows were creaked and creaked.

After eating, Cheng Muqing didn't go out to see Lin Heng off because he was too full.The other party didn't have any dissatisfaction, and told her to take a good rest.

Cheng Muqing walked into the back room, sat on the rocking chair, took the Xiaoshi soup that Jinxi brought, and sipped it.

The soup is made from hawthorn, yam, apple, red dates and rock sugar.The soup is sour and sweet, and the hawthorn and other things are steamed first and then boiled. At this time, they are extremely soft and rotten, almost melting in the mouth.

……

Two days later, Cheng Muqing's life finally returned to the right track - sleeping until he woke up naturally, eating, reading, practicing martial arts... took time to see Lin Heng.

This morning, the sun is bright and the wind is warm.

Cheng Muqing stayed on the bed for a long time as usual before slowly getting up.

It seemed that she heard the sound of her getting up, and there was a knock on the door.

"Princess, are you awake?"

"En." Cheng Muqing muffled in response.

Jinxi walked into the room with the washbasin in her hand, she had a smile on her face, "Princess, everyone in the courtyard now says that you and the prince have a very good relationship."

"Oh?" Cheng Muqing yelled.

"Ordinary couples, it's the wife who surrounds the husband. When it comes to you, it's the prince who surrounds you." Jin Xi's smile almost reached her ears, "Bai Lu in the backyard, Han Lu asked me, how did you do it, princess?" .”

"Hmm..." Cheng Muqing tilted his head, "Does that count as a hero saving the beauty?"

The princess is a hero, and the prince is a beauty?Thinking of this, Jinxi burst out laughing.As if thinking of something, he said, "The lord came to see you, wangfei this morning. The slave said that you haven't gotten up yet, so let Afeng Mingchen take him back to Jingyuan first."

"Yeah." Cheng Muqing nodded, and couldn't help complaining, it was too clingy.

"We all feel that the prince really likes the princess." Jin Xi said, inexplicably feeling a little emotional, "When you first got married, you never went to Jingyuan. There are rumors in the backyard, and I am angry."

Cheng Muqing didn't even need to think about what the rumors were.She pulled her lips, "Is it just to say that I am arrogant or something? Or else, to spread rumors about the relationship between me and Lin Yan. Everyone in the world is like this. They have never been in contact with each other, but because of a few rumors, they are delusional... ...Actually, I am also like this, I heard that Lin Heng is withdrawn, and after marrying into Prince Qi's mansion, he has never been to Jingyuan. But in the end, the prince is lonely and has no one to accompany him, and Jingyuan is not as peaceful as I thought."

"Princess, you... have really changed a lot." Jin Xi looked at Cheng Muqing, her eyes were a little blank, "If I heard these rumors before, I would probably be very angry."

"I have been away for two years, not for fun."

Cheng Muqing rebelled and left home at the age of 15, stayed in the military camp for a year, and stayed in the Qiguo Palace for more than a year.I thought I could stay at home with my parents when I came back, but in the end I was accused of marrying Lin Heng.

She married Lin Heng this year.

Counting it, in Dajin, it is a late marriage.Generally, girls will make an engagement before the fifteenth year, and after the fifteenth birthday, they can discuss marriage.

After breakfast, Cheng Muqing planned to visit Lin Heng.

It's just that before I arrived at Jingyuan, I heard that Lin Heng was in the stable...

 Before Lin Heng opened his mouth——

  Cheng Muqing: He loves me so much!what should I do? !

  After Lin Heng spoke——

  Cheng Muqing: A weak man who covets a sense of security.
