138 The heart is broken

"The girl is so beautiful, but I can't marry you..." Mu Qiuxue lowered her head and said softly.

"Why?" The woman looked at Mu Qiuxue in surprise.

The women beside her also looked at her.

"Because I have married." Mu Qiuxue said softly.

"It's okay, I'm willing to be the prince's concubine." The woman said hurriedly when she heard this.

"But my wife is extremely fierce. I took two concubines before and went there a few days ago. A few days ago, I fell in love with a woman. I said I would go to propose marriage the next day, but when I went there the next day, the person was not dead, but was disfigured. So, I can't harm you." Mu Qiuxue looked at the women in front of her with a sad face, and lowered her head.

When several women heard this, they all took a few steps back, looked at Mu Qiuxue sympathetically, and then delivered the flowers to Shangguan Yu.

Shangguan Yu looked at Mu Qiuxue depressedly and shook his head in sigh.

A woman standing next to Shangguan Yu did not send the flowers out as anxiously as the woman just now, but just asked in a low voice, "Young Master, have you married?"

Shangguan Yu shook his head, "No."

When the woman heard this, she smiled excitedly, and handed the torch in her hand shyly to Shangguan Yu, "Young Master, please accept the flowers!"

But as soon as she finished speaking, she heard Shangguan Yu calmly accept the rest of the words, "I didn't marry because I don't like women."

"Don't like women? Then you..." The woman looked at Shangguan Yu with a sad face. Don't be what she guessed!

"Yes, I like men." Shangguan Yu sighed softly.

In one sentence, the woman's heart was instantly broken and she ran away with a bouquet.

The girls around him gradually became less calm and were guessing in their hearts. No wonder this man stood here all the time, and he must have liked the man beside him. Unfortunately, he had already married and didn't like a man. The young master's wife must know that her husband would not like a man, so he could live safely until now, and that must be true.

After a cup of tea, there was no woman beside Mu Qiuxue and Shangguan Yu.

The other women who wanted to come and deliver flowers took a detour after listening to the women's conversations.

The few people who were watching the lanterns saw that there was no one around them, so they hurriedly walked past.

"Hey, weren't there so many people just now? Why are there no one now?" Because Shangguan Yu and Mu Qiuxue were surrounded by a group of people, Yiqin and others, who were far away, did not hear their conversation.

Mu Qiuxue smiled and shook her head, her eyes swept Shangguan Yu's body.

Shangguan Yu smiled calmly and handsomely.

Shangguan Ling'er pouted, "I thought I would have a third sister-in-law today!"

"My third sister-in-law may not have it, but my third brother-in-law is there." Mu Qiuxue patted Shangguan Ling'er on the shoulder and raised her foot to walk forward.

"Third brother-in-law? I don't have third sisters, I only have fifth sisters." Shangguan Ling'er looked at Mu Qiuxue's back in confusion.

Yiqin, Siqi and Xihua all looked at Shangguan Ling'er with sympathy. After all, they knew what was passed down in the palace, and now they were wondering whether Shangguan Yu really had the habit of breaking his sleeves.

Shangguan Ling'er's mind was circling, yes, doesn't she have a third brother? Could it be that? She looked at Shangguan Yu with surprise. The rumors wouldn't be true!

Shangguan Yu smiled and touched Shangguan Ling'er's head, without answering her doubts.

"Miss, let's go quickly, they are all gone." The close maid Dong'er pulled Shangguan Ling'er's sleeve, but her eyes were staring at the direction where Mu Qiuxue and the others left.

Shangguan Ling'er glared at her maid and hurriedly followed.

Dong'er stroked her nose, felt inexplicably at Shangguan Ling'er's glare, shook her head, and followed.

"Ling'er, come and see, the river lanterns are good here." Mu Qiuxue picked up a lotus lantern and said to Shangguan Ling'er not far away.

"Here you come." Shangguan Ling'er held the lotus lantern in her hand, but saw a line of words written on it and started to chant softly, "I'll keep you up on New Year's Eve, and say a word after saying, "What is it, Brother San?"

"Do you have any words?" Shangguan Yu turned over the river lantern, looked at the words on it, and chuckled softly, "Don't bid farewell to the old and welcome the new."

"This young man is so smart, Miss, this lantern is yours." The vendor behind the river lantern looked at Shangguan Ling'er with a smile.

"Really?" Shangguan Ling'er happily held the river lantern and nodded at the vendor, "Thank you, boss."

"You guys choose someone you like too!" Mu Qiuxue saw that Yiqin and the other two looked at him, shook her head helplessly.

"Lou Ah-shi asked for a hexagram, and made an idiom, young master?" Siqi held a colorful lotus lantern and looked at Mu Qiuxue depressedly. After all, what she was most good at was stealing, not guessing!

Mu Qiuxue smiled slightly and looked at Xihua beside her, "You said."

"I'm guilty. Is it right? Young Master." Xihua lowered her head and thought for a while, looked up at Mu Qiuxue and said.

Mu Qiuxue nodded with a faint smile.

Siqi took the river lantern from the vendor's hand and stood aside with a smile.

When everyone chose one, Mu Qiuxue and Shangguan Yu did not take it.

"Young Master, don't you pick it?" Yiqin looked at Shangguan Yu in surprise with the river lantern, then looked at Mu Qiuxue, and said.

‘Don’t you choose?’ Mu Qiuxue glanced at Shangguan Yu and signaled him to choose one.

Shangguan Yu shook his head, "I don't like this."

Shangguan Ling'er didn't like the eye contact between them, so she took two river lanterns from the vendor and stuffed them into their arms.

Mu Qiuxue smiled gently and returned the river lantern in her hand to the vendor, "Give me a blank!"

"I want it to be blank, too." Shangguan Yu also returned the river lantern in his hand to the vendor.

The vendor glanced at the two of them and gave the two blanks to them.

Mu Qiuxue took it, picked up the brush beside her, and was about to write the inscription on it, but she saw everyone's eyes on the tip of her pen. She glared at everyone, hid on the side and started to lift the pen and write.

"Young Master, what are you writing? Why don't we let us read it?" Siqi followed Mu Qiuxue, circled around, insisting on what was written on it.

But how could Mu Qiuxue do what she wished? After a while, Mu Qiuxue finished writing and handed the brush to Shangguan Yu.

Shangguan Yu smiled and shook his head, and also wrote the inscription on it, but he did not let those who watched the fun watch, such as Shangguan Ling'er.

Seeing that neither side looked at them, Shangguan Ling'er glared at the two of them, snorted "stingy", and raised her feet to walk towards the river.

Yiqin and Xihua smiled and followed. Anyway, they couldn't see it, so it would be better not to go and see it.

"Let's go." Mu Qiuxue glanced at Shangguan Yu and Siqi who were still standing there, smiled, and followed.
