After a break in the evening, Shen Qin handed Li Yunxi a note.

[His Royal Highness rarely catches fish, so he and the common people will go to the nearby lotus pond to catch some fresh fish for dinner. ]

Li Yunxi raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Sir, are you going on a date with me?"

Shen Qin was noncommittal.

Haoer jumped up and down with joy, "Master Menhu only treats diseases all day long, and never takes his disciple out to play. My disciple also wants to catch fish."

Shen Qin said a few words to Haoer.

After Hao'er understood it, he pouted and said: "Okay, if you don't want to go down, you won't go down. Hao'er will just watch from the shore. That's all."

Li Yunxi also said to Liu Qingyan, "You can only watch from a distance, and you are not allowed to disturb my date with my husband."

Liu Qingyan responded with a helpless expression.

……

……

The red clouds in the evening are reflected on the water, and the layers of lotus leaves are dyed a light pink.

The breeze blows, lotus flowers dance like fairies in the golden palace, wild ducks play in the lake, and aquatic plants grow freely under the water, full of life.

In Shen Qin's eyes, this beautiful scenery is just sunset.

Thinking about the last time I caught fish in the lotus pond, I did it with Zhang Shen. At that time, I came back with a full load and a lot of fun. Han Xiao was still a smug young man at that time and said with a smile.

"The lotus flowers are as old as everyone wants this year, and they will not grow old in pursuit of the west wind."

Zhang Shensuan raised his head and took a sip of the tangerine flowers, then chanted: "Bring the flowers to your wine, and spend your years drinking together, forever and ever."

Others laughed at them as they did at the love poems, which have now become sad memories.

Compared with Shen Qin's mediocrity, Li Yunxi actually had a lot of fun. Because of his quick movements and immense strength, he could catch one accurately and throw it to the shore. Hao'er picked it up in the barrel.

At this moment, he picked up another struggling big fat carp.

"Look! This bar is big!"

Feeling that there was no movement behind him, he turned his head and glanced, only to find that Shen Qin was standing in the water, lost in thought.

The man's entire body was bathed in the glow, and his snow clothes had been wetted, revealing his faint skin. There were several long strands of hair hanging down, adding a touch of tenderness to his otherworldly face.

Although the lotus is beautiful, it is not half as beautiful as him.

Li Yunxi was stunned for a while, and didn't react until the fish in his hand broke away. He picked up a handful of water and threw it at Shen Qin.

"The husband said he was out to catch fish, but he was lazy."

Shen Qin was shocked and did not fight back. He just wiped the water on his face with his sleeves and pretended to catch the fish.

"Sir, he must be missing his old friend. Even though he doesn't say it, there is always a trace of sadness in his eyebrows. On July [-]th, who are you paying homage to?"

After hearing this, Shen Qin slipped his hand and the fish he just caught ran away.

Haoer has that big mouth!

Ironically, the day when the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl met was also his family's memorial day.

"Lover? Or family?" Li Yunxi probed, his eyes seemed to be able to penetrate people.

Shen Qin just leaned over and stared in the direction where the fish ran away just now, seemingly catching the fish seriously.

A white lotus flower appeared in front of his eyes. He raised his chin and saw that it was handed over by Li Yunxi.

Shen Qin felt that the lotus flower seemed to be boiling hot, but then it wasn't hot, and it wasn't hot even if she didn't pick it up. Finally, she took it awkwardly.

"Actually, I don't like Chinese Valentine's Day either. It's obvious that the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl are a tragedy, but the lovers still want to celebrate. Is it because they are celebrating and parting after meeting each other?"

He sighed secretly, and then raised a pleasant smile,

"However, since sir, you are dating me, don't worry about others, otherwise I will be jealous."

Shen Qin was thinking about how to reasonably "throw away" the lotus.

"By the way, do you want to know what happened to the imperial doctor who took care of me?"

Shen Qin shook his head naturally.

"Yes, why would sir be interested in him?"

Li Yunxi laughed at himself,

"But I still want to mention that he was sentenced to death for plotting to murder the prince, and his family also committed suicide out of fear of the crime. If sir enters the palace, do not explore this matter, lest someone will get caught..."

Shen Qin nodded and secretly pulled out the juice from the lotus stem.

Li Yunxi sighed softly and looked into the distance.

"Maybe I'm overly worried. When I see my husband, I always think of old memories."

A burst of piercing bird song suddenly sounded. The two looked up and saw a ferocious eagle falling from the sky with a gray downy duck in its mouth. The mother duck fought back and held on to the eagle's sharp claws.

Li Yunxi asked with interest, "Who do you think can win, sir?"

Shen Qin didn't answer. No matter what the outcome was, this little wild duck had suffocated to death. In the struggle for power, the weak and innocent were often the victims.

The two watched them fight each other. After all, the mother duck was no match. She was blinded by the eagle. Just as she was about to fly up triumphantly, she was hit hard by a flying stone into the water.

Li Yunxi washed his hands of the mud from fishing for stones and laughed loudly.

"It is said that the weak will prey on the strong, and destiny is determined by fate, but I only believe that everything depends on man, and man will conquer nature!"

There seemed to be light in his eyes, and his smile was like the bright moon in his arms.

"It seems that we not only have fish to eat today, but also game."

These words stirred up a storm in Shen Qin's heart.

Maybe I am really "old" and no longer have the courage to fight against fate again.

A good saying, everything depends on man, man will conquer nature!

Faced with such a high-spirited fifth prince, how could you bear to watch him fend for himself in the struggle for power and turn a blind eye?

Otherwise, let's fight "Heaven" again for him.

Maybe after Li Yunxi ascends the throne, he can avenge Han Jiaping, or maybe he can think of a more secure way of revenge. Facing it is better than escaping.

When this decision was made, the depression that had been lingering in her heart for many years finally dissipated, and Shen Qin felt more relaxed than ever before.

The fish in the barrel could hardly be filled, and the sky became darker and darker. The two went ashore. Haoer pointed at Li Yunxi's lifted trouser legs and exclaimed, "Master, that is..."
