Chapter 219.1

Mother wants me to have a long chat with His Majesty?

Chat about what?

Liu Wanqing suddenly felt lost!

You see, she had lived with her mother all her life, hardly ever leaving her side due to her mothers illness, always accompanying her wherever she went, and she had never had contact with anyone else alone, let alone with another man.

This sudden situation

Alone together, a man and a woman

She had absolutely no experience in this area!

For some reason, looking at Lin Beifans young and handsome face, Liu Wanqing suddenly felt a bit panicked.

Lin Beifan was also a bit panicked.

The intentions of Liu Wanqings mother were very clear; she obviously wanted to set him up with her daughter.

To have them stay in the same room, interact and develop feelings for each other.

He was a victim of arranged marriages in a feudal society!

Although he had married several wives and shared a bed with them for many years, he had absolutely no experience in serious dating!

He was the least experienced in flirting. Hes still pure at heart!

This sudden situation of being alone with Liu Wanqing

Just the two of them

What should he do in this situation?

His biggest fear is losing control and sparking a fire, only to be caught by her mother.

How embarrassing that would be!

Your Majesty Liu Wanqing lowered her head and said nothing, looking very shy.

Miss Wanqing

Lin Beifan coughed, Its a bit stuffy staying in the room. Lets go out for a walk!

Y-yes, lets go for a walk! Liu Wanqing immediately nodded in agreement.

Moments later, the two left the room and strolled along the ridges of the Four Seasons Valley.

Although it was still winter and quite cold, the weather in the Four Seasons Valley was clearly different.Updated from novelbIn.(c)om

It boasted a variety of sceneries all year round and was planted with a dazzling array of medicinal herbs, which was an eye-opener for anyone.

This Emperor is too naughty!

Just then, Lin Beifan pointed to a cluster of plants not far away and asked curiously, Miss Wanqing, what is this?

Liu Wanqing immediately began, Your Majesty, thats Cuscuta. It has been a symbol of love since ancient times! Theres a line in ancient poetry that goes like this: As newlyweds, like the Cuscuta to the vine we cling. This illustrates how newlyweds are intertwined like the Cuscuta and the vine, together and as sweet as honey! However, in the eyes of us physicians, it is a very magical herb, mainly used to nourish the liver and kidneys, consolidate essence, reduce urination, and also for stabilizing pregnancies (TLN: Parasitic plant that clings to other plants.)

I see, Ive learned something new today!

Lin Beifan said, enlightened, About this Cuscuta, actually, Ive heard another story!

Your Majesty, what story is that? Liu Wanqing asked curiously.

Lin Beifan explained, As you know, the Cuscuta flower is a symbol of love! According to legend, the Cuscuta is sentient. If it senses that lovers are fated for each other, it will entwine them together with its vines as a blessing!

Is there really such a legend? Liu Wanqing asked, somewhat enchanted.

Lin Beifan shook his head, I dont know, but theres a saying that theres no smoke without fire! Lets keep moving forward!

Just then, Lin Beifan suddenly fell down and cried out in pain.

Your Majesty, be careful! quick to react, Liu Wanqing caught the falling Lin Beifan.

Looking down, she discovered that Lin Beifans foot had been entangled by the Cuscuta, causing him to trip.

Her own feet were also bound together by its vine

Remembering the legend they had just discussed, Liu Wanqings face turned red in an instant.

Lin Beifan innocently said, Miss Wanqing, I didnt do it on purpose!

And so, the two continued their walk through the valley.

Throughout the journey, Lin Beifan was humble and polite, always eager to learn.

Liu Wanqing, on the other hand, blushed the entire way, her shyness indescribable.

Before they knew it, it had gotten dark.

Lin Beifan glanced at the sky and said regretfully, Miss Wanqing, its getting late, sop I must return! Ive learned a lot from our walk today, Ill visit another day to seek your advice!

Liu Wanqing felt reluctant, Alright Your Majesty, until we meet again!
