Her hair was cloud-like and beautiful! She opened her eyes and found herself back in the third year

Chapter 266, Yan: It snowed today.

Princess Huizhen's face stiffened upon hearing this, and she sat down angrily at the other end of the kang (heated brick bed): "I am your elder sister, why can't you show me some favoritism?"

"Of course I favor my elder sister. After all, my mother has protected me a lot, and His Majesty treats me very well. There's also your uncle. I have to give him some consideration. He cares about you, so naturally I do too."

"But haven't we been urging my elder sister to get married sooner?"

They made Princess Huizhen marry early so that she could avoid these things. Isn't that being biased?

Does it have to be that the marriage falls on her head, and they feel sorry for her and don't want her to marry, so they let someone else marry her instead, for it to be considered biased?

Princess Huizhen's forehead veins throbbed: "Didn't you say this would happen back then?"

They only said at the time that they hoped she would get married soon, so that if the situation changed and a princess was needed for a political marriage, it wouldn't be easy for her to refuse.

But they all said maybe, they didn't say definitely!

Qin Yizhen was speechless again.

Goodness, who can be sure something will happen?

In her previous life, Princess Huizhen was not involved in a political marriage. She never married and lived a carefree life, keeping her gigolos and changing them whenever she got tired of them.

But in this life, things changed because of just a small change.

After Qin Yizhen left, Liang Xize harassed her, splashed tea on her, beat her twice, and imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice prison. He harbored resentment and plotted the arson case at Fanghua Pavilion.

The truth behind the Fanghua Pavilion arson case has come to light, and Dong Qin demands that west Liang exchange hostages and pay compensation to various regions.

Thus, Liang Xihuai and Liang Xiyu came from Qindu...

For a moment, Qin Yizhen even felt a sense of guilt, as if she might have harmed Princess Huizhen.

But it was only for a moment, after all, she didn't know which way things would go, and it wasn't her fault.

Qin Yizhen sighed and asked Princess Huizhen, "Then what exactly do you mean by coming to see me? Or what do you want me to do? Just tell me directly."

Qin Yizhen felt that reasoning with Princess Huizhen was pointless; it was best to just tell her what she wanted to do so she could consider whether it was feasible.

When it came to actually what to do, Princess Huizhen seemed to get stuck again, not knowing where to begin.

Seeing her like this, Qin Yizhen understood everything. She probably learned about Liang Xihuai's marriage proposal at the Taiji Hall and rushed to Pingxi Prefecture. Apart from feeling very resistant and not wanting to marry, she didn't think much else.

Qin Yizhen thought for a moment and said to her, "Why don't you go to Chunhe Courtyard to rest for a while and think it over? You can talk to your uncle when he comes back."

Qin Yizhen didn't know how to handle this matter either. After thinking about it, she could only leave it back to Cheng Yan and Empress Dowager Cheng. After all, they were her uncle and mother, so she let them worry about it.

“I won’t talk to him.” Princess Huizhen’s skin tightened upon hearing this.

The last time Cheng Yan saw her was because of her affair with Lu Yangyusheng. When he saw her, she refused to get married and wanted to live a carefree life. He bluntly said that he didn't care about her anymore.

Princess Huizhen is now somewhat afraid to see him.

Qin Yizhen was speechless: "What's the use of telling me if you don't talk to him? I don't care about court affairs."

Princess Huizhen pressed down on her lips: "I'm just worried, and I don't know who to talk to, so I can only come to you. Please think about it for me, if I really have to marry, how can I get out of this situation?"

Qin Yizhen immediately covered her ears: "There's nothing I can do, nothing I can do either. If you want to leave, leave quickly, or your uncle will be back soon."

When Princess Huizhen heard that Cheng Yan was coming back, she didn't dare to keep him. However, she really didn't want to marry any prince of Xiliang, so she said, "Then you should talk to your uncle and ask him to think of a way for me. By the way, you should coax him more; he will definitely listen to you."

"Then I'll be going now. Remember, if your uncle has any suggestions, send someone to tell me, or you can ask me to come over. Just don't let your uncle come looking for me!"

After saying these words, Princess Huizhen was afraid of running into Cheng Yan, so she quickly ran away. Her maid stepped forward, picked up her cloak, bowed, and hurriedly followed.

Qin Yizhen reached up and rubbed her temples: "I knew there would be trouble."

When Empress Dowager Cheng first mentioned these things to her, she sensed something was wrong. However, since things had come to this point, she was powerless to change anything and could only wait and see what choice Empress Dowager Cheng would make.

Lüqiao brought her a cup of hot water and advised her, "Princess, you don't need to think too much about it. Even if Princess Huizhen is to marry, it is Princess Huizhen's responsibility. Besides, it's just getting married, it doesn't necessarily mean they have to be husband and wife."

Qin Yizhen blinked: "What did you say?"

Green Bridge asked in confusion, "This servant told the princess not to overthink it."

"The last sentence."

"It's just getting married, it doesn't necessarily mean becoming husband and wife? Is that the sentence you mean?"

"That's it!" Qin Yizhen suddenly understood.

Marriage is just marriage, it doesn't necessarily mean becoming husband and wife. If all you want is the title of husband and wife, then after marriage you can live your own lives and no one should interfere with the other. If Princess Huizhen wants to keep male concubines, then she can keep male concubines.

If you want a child, then have one first, and then each of you can go your separate ways. If you really can't make it work, then you can get a divorce.

This is Eastern Qin. Liang Xihuai is the hostage, and Princess Huizhen doesn't need to marry into another country for political reasons.

After thinking about it, Qin Yizhen realized that things might not be so bad after all.

Well, at least Princess Huizhen will definitely not leave Dongqin. As long as she is in Dongqin, she will be a legitimate princess whom no one dares to bully.

Qin Yizhen immediately felt relieved and then instructed someone to boil water and bring out Cheng Yan's new clothes.

Cheng Yan didn't have many clothes to change into, so in September, Qin Yizhen asked the embroiderer to make several more sets. During the three months of winter, he had five different kinds of winter clothes of varying thicknesses.

It's snowing, and he needs to change into a new outfit.

When Cheng Yan returned home, the snow was still falling. The snow was light, with only a few snowflakes caught in the wind, and a thin layer of snow had settled on the ground.

He strode forward through the thin snow, and just as he reached the corridor, he saw Qin Yizhen walking out from inside, wearing a cloak.

"Cheng Yan, it's snowing today." Qin Yizhen stepped forward and reached out to take his hand.

Cheng Yan slightly avoided her, then placed his hand on her arm to prevent her from getting closer, and pulled her into the house.

Qin Yi asked him curiously, "What are you doing?"

"It's snowing, and I'm cold."

Qin Yizhen then remembered that he usually rode out on horseback in the morning and returned on horseback in the evening, and that he had been exposed to wind and snow all the way back.

"How are you? Are you cold?" Qin Yizhen frowned and suggested, "Why don't you change to a different carriage? It'll block the wind, and you can put a stove in the carriage, then it won't be so cold."

"If that really doesn't work, you can stay in the camp for a while."
