After being reborn in the Mass Grave, she overturned her predecessor's power

In Yan area, Helian Mu has been full of vigor and vitality since he conquered Chen Zhun.

In addition, everything has been going well recently and he has been living a comfortable life. Helian Mu gradually got out of his previous loss and shadow, and the Prince of Yan's Mansion became lively again.

There was singing and dancing, and the sound of stringed instruments continued.

The weather was getting hotter that day, and she felt sleepy in the afternoon. Qiao Xue slept until the afternoon, when she was awakened by the faint sound of stringed instruments.

She sat by the window and was distracted. Chuntao brought people in to help her put on her makeup again.

She stood on the eaves and looked at the sky. "It's so hot and humid, I'm afraid it will rain tonight."

Then he asked, "What is the prince doing?"

"The prince got a pair of beautiful sisters today. They were specially presented to him by the forces in Shangdu." Chun Tao lowered her voice and said, "The sound of stringed instruments in Yulanfang has not stopped since the afternoon."

She chuckled, the smile in her eyes was unfathomable, "I remember I received the wine recipe from Hu Shang last time, how is the wine brewing going?"

“It’s already brewed.”

"Pack a few cans out and I'll deliver them to the prince in person later."

She is different from Qiao Zhiwan. When Qiao Zhiwan was the princess, she managed the backyard very well. She was possessive of Helian Mu and almost doted on her alone. The backyard of the palace was very clean.

She was different, she never cared about these things. She would compromise and make arrangements for the beauties brought back by Helian Mu or offered by others. She never spoiled the fun of Helian Mu, whether he was drinking or having a banquet.

I won't advise him to drink less, nor will I advise him to indulge in less love affairs and take care of his health.

She knew clearly that both alcohol and love could be addictive and dependent, and that a person's downfall could occur in a moment.

After dinner, the guests left.

She brought a pot of wine to Magnolia House. Helian Mu was sitting on a bamboo chair to cool off. When he heard the voice, he half-closed his eyes and said, "You're here..."

He was in his prime, with a strong and healthy body, so even after playing for half a day, he was only slightly tired.

Qiao Xue walked over, sat in his arms and said coquettishly, "I got something good, and I brought it specially for the prince."

"My dear, you really think of me in everything. Let me see what good stuff it is."

Because she is sensible and understands the ways of the world, even though there are many beauties in the backyard of the palace, he still dotes on her.

Qiao Xue stood up, took out the jade pot, poured a glass of fine wine that had been specially chilled in the deep well, and fed it to his mouth, "Your Highness, have a taste."

Helian Mu took a sip and said, "It tastes sweet and cool, and the light wine taste is endless. It's a very suitable wine for summer."

"My beloved concubine is indeed kind and graceful."

She poured another cup and gently shook it, saying, "This wine is called Rouge Drunk. It's a recipe I got by accident. The weather is hot and I was bored recently so I remembered it and asked someone to brew it according to the recipe."

“Good wine, good name…”

She accompanied him, and the two of them quickly finished the jade pot of wine. Helian Mu became interested and pinched her waist.

"I'm not very convenient today, please go find someone else, Your Majesty."

"Aren't you jealous?"

"Laiya, the prince must double the compensation."

After a few more jokes, she took the people away. The summer night was long, and after drinking the wine, Helian Mu naturally did not stay idle, so he went to the room of the beautiful sisters.

Returning to the courtyard, she took a shower and changed her clothes. "I'm going to the small Buddhist temple to chant sutras."

She wore no makeup, and her hair was simply tied up with a wooden hairpin. She was dressed very simply.

She always liked quietness, and only brought her confidants with her when she went to the small Buddhist temple. The small Buddhist temple was hidden in a bamboo forest in the corner of the palace, very quiet, and few people came.

After arriving, Chuntao and another maid waited outside, drinking tea and eating snacks.

She pushed the door open and entered the inner courtyard alone, and then entered the Buddhist hall. As soon as the door was closed, she was hugged.

"Don't make trouble..."

Chen Zhun chuckled, "It's really not easy to see you."

"It's so cheap but so good."

In order to win him over and appease him, Helian Mu placed Chen's mother and his sister in the palace's annex, so that he had a reason to enter the palace.

But since they were on Helian Mu's territory, the two of them had always been cautious and did not meet often.

Chen Zhun whispered, "Can you stay a little longer tonight?"

"It's about to rain outside, and the prince is intoxicated by the beauties, no one cares about us."

Chen Zhun was relieved and quickly explained everything with his actions. It soon began to rain heavily outside the house, and it was even more violent in the Buddhist hall.

After an unknown amount of time, she stretched out her delicate hand and pushed open the window to get some fresh air. "Oh, do you think we will go to hell if we pollute the Buddha's eyes?"

He hugged her from behind and said, "Then let's go to hell together. I'm happy with it."

The two of them leaned against each other quietly, watching the wind and rain outside the window, it was so quiet.

"When will days like this end?"

Seeing her talking and laughing beside him, he could hardly bear it anymore.

"Be patient and endure." She stroked his face gently with her hand. "There will be a day when the clouds will clear and the moon will shine. Until then, we must endure."

The two of them discussed in a low voice again. She was already slowly infiltrating and conquering the inner courtyard, but she could only rely on Chen Zhun to deal with the external forces, as she had no access to them at all.

Chen Zhun sighed, "After all, I came to him later, and he doesn't trust me enough. I can only take it slow and slowly gain his trust."

"It doesn't matter, we still have time."

As long as they are together, they have strength, even if they can only meet briefly once in a while.

The incense in the incense burner was almost burned, and she calmly tidied his clothes for him, "You should go."

Chen Zhun kissed her forehead and quickly disappeared in the wind and rain.

She put her hair up again, pushed the door, opened the umbrella and walked out with a calm expression, and brought people back to the yard.

On Helian Mu's side, Yanzhi was too drunk and made a fuss all night long.

When he woke up the next day, he was still refreshed. Helian Mu did not think there was anything wrong, but fell in love with Yanzhizui.

He brought a set of luxurious jewelry, "My beloved Rouge Zui, it is very suitable for drinking in summer. I plan to use it to entertain guests. I wonder how much is left here, my beloved?"

"I made a profit by exchanging jewelry for wine."

The two men talked for a few words, and all the rouge wine in the wine cellar was moved away.

She picked up an exquisite golden hairpin and said, "Although the wine is good, it has a strong aftereffect."

It's a good thing that he is so greedy for wine, so that she doesn't have to worry about calculating.

Chuntao was a little worried, "Will something happen if I drink too much?"

"That's wine, not poison. It'll be fine."

It would just make him addicted, draining his body bit by bit. This process would be slow but silent, so she had to wait.

Wait for him to fall down without knowing it until he reaches hell.

It doesn't matter, she can wait, she has plenty of time to spend with him. She is still young, and there are still many good years waiting for her when everything is over.

She smiled faintly, "Prepare two kinds of snacks, we will go to see Aunt Chen later."

Things will get better little by little, and she won't feel that it's hard to be with that person anymore.

This summer is hot and long, and seems particularly unbearable.
