In order to persuade Xie Jingyan to help propose marriage, Cheng Yi took the risk and told Yan Yue the truth about how he and Yan Yue met.

Xie Jingyan judged that there should be no concealment. After all, his cousin had not been back to Beijing for a long time. In addition, she was detained in the mansion due to smallpox and had not been out of the house very often. It was not easy for her to encounter her like this a few times.

But I have only seen him a few times outside the mansion, what about in Yan’s mansion?

Xie Jingyan asked, "Have you ever climbed over the wall to the Yan Mansion?"

Cheng Yi was stunned by the question, "Not yet..."

not yet……

This is an idea that has been thought about but has not yet been put into action.

Yes, even an honest little hunter like Du Cheng'an was taught how to climb over the wall, let alone the son of the right prime minister, who was in a very high position in the country. He didn't even need to be taught; he could do it as soon as he heard it.

Birds of a feather flock together. This is absolutely true.

Shen Wan secretly complained in her heart.

Cheng Yi's words came out of his mouth without thinking, and by the time he realized what was happening, his ears had turned red, but he couldn't take them back.

The gentleman's brows were tied in a knot. Shen Wan wanted to laugh but couldn't, and felt very uncomfortable.

The guy next to her has a leg disease and is in a wheelchair, but he has climbed over the wall of Pingyang Marquis' Mansion many times. He cannot be allowed to set fire while his brothers are not allowed to light lamps. However, the one who is coveted is his own cousin, and as a cousin, he cannot indulge her.

However, Shen Wanxin Cheng Yi has not yet climbed over the wall to visit Yan's residence, otherwise Yan Yue would not have teased Yan Qing'er so much.

If Young Master Cheng also climbs over the wall to find her, Yan Qing'er will find out and will definitely tease her back.

Xie Jingyan didn't care about Cheng Yi's climbing over the wall. As long as the marriage was settled, it didn't matter if he turned a blind eye. After all, he was also an experienced person. "Tomorrow, I will go to Yan's house to ask for you."

Prince Ling agreed to help propose marriage, and the marriage was 90% settled.

Cheng Yi thanked him quickly and left without further ado.

After Cheng Yi left, Shen Wan and Xie Jingyan walked towards the inner courtyard. Shen Wan said, "You go to Yan's Mansion tomorrow, and I will go back to Pingyang Marquis' Mansion."

Xie Jingyan said, "I will pick you up at Pingyang Marquis's Mansion tomorrow after I finish my business."

Shen Wan nodded.

After returning to Moyuxuan, she asked Mother Zhou to prepare a visiting gift so that she could take it back to Pingyang Marquis Mansion tomorrow.

It was a good plan, but she didn't go to Marquis Cheng Pingyang's Mansion the next day.

It was already noon when she got up. She felt weak all over and didn't even have the strength to get out of bed, let alone go out.

A man who has been a vegetarian for more than three months will not be able to eat meat until not even a bone is left.

After nightfall, Shen Wan read a book for a while while the maid prepared hot water. As soon as she entered the bathtub, a certain master came back.

He used the excuse of losing the bet to help her take a bath and took advantage of her.

It's just that they haven't done that for a long time, and the guy surrendered in just half a cup of tea, just like the second time. This time his self-esteem was not hurt like last time, but he suspected that he had been holding it in for too long and hurt himself.

He dragged Shen Wan to verify again and again, and tortured her until the late night. I don't know how many times she begged for mercy before he let her go.

Shen Wan woke up from hunger.

After waking up, he leaned weakly on the big pillow and asked, "Where is that bastard?"

Yin Shuang guessed that the bastard that her princess was talking about was the prince, but she didn't dare to admit it. Instead, she asked, "Are you asking about the prince?"

Shen Wan asked, "Where are the others?"

Yin Shuang said, "The prince has gone to the Yan residence to help Young Master Cheng propose marriage and has not returned yet."

Shen Wan clenched her back teeth.

He had agreed to pick her up at Pingyang Marquis Mansion after finishing his business, but he went to Yan Mansion by himself and didn't care whether she could go to Pingyang Marquis Mansion or not!

Shen Wan was so hungry that she threw off the quilt and got out of bed. Her legs felt like they were stepping on cotton and some parts of her body were sore. She couldn't help but curse that bastard in her heart, and then she heard familiar footsteps.

As soon as Xie Jingyan entered the room, he received a glare from Shen Wan. However, the glare was so lethal that it not only failed to hurt him, but also pleased him.

Xie Jingyan came over, and Yinshuang and Haitang were tactful and quickly retreated.

Xie Jingyan asked softly, "Does it still hurt?"

This bastard still has the nerve to ask?!

Shen Wan was so angry that she almost died.

She looked listless, but this bastard was so energetic.

Xie Jingyan coaxed her, "Okay, don't be angry anymore. I will try to restrain myself in the future."

"Last night, I wanted to give you my life."

The hot breath sprayed on my ears, making them itchy and numb.

Shen Wan's anger disappeared in an instant.

This guy is not just talking, he is really willing to sacrifice his life for her, he has done so in both lifetimes.

Although she almost lost half her life last night...

Shen Wan said, "I can't go back to Pingyang Marquis Mansion today. I will go back tomorrow, and you can't..."

"Okay, I'll go back with you tomorrow."

The maid brought in the food and they sat down to eat lunch.

However, the next day, only Shen Wan returned to Pingyang Marquis' Mansion. It was not that Xie Jingyan went back on his word. He accompanied Shen Wan out of the mansion. When they reached the gate of the palace, a carriage from the palace slowly stopped.

Eunuch Yuan got off the carriage, followed by two eunuchs. Each of them held a tray with two stacks of memorials on each tray.

Seeing this scene, Xie Jingyan frowned and asked, "What is this...?"

Eunuch Yuan said, "The emperor is not feeling well, so I asked my servant to bring these memorials to you for your review."

Xie Jingyan asked, "How serious is Father's illness?"

Eunuch Yuan said, "Maybe I caught a cold last night. I coughed several times this morning..."

I thought his illness was so serious that he couldn't review the memorials and send them to him just because he coughed a few times?

It is obvious that he was tired of reviewing memorials and wanted to take advantage of him.

Xie Jingyan looked at Shen Wan, and Shen Wan said, "You go visit your father, I will go back to Pingyang Marquis's Mansion alone."

In fact, she should have gone to the palace with Xie Jingyan to visit the emperor.

But judging from the situation, the emperor was most likely pretending to be sick, so it would be better for her not to go.

The emperor and Xie Jingyan and his son were fighting. It would be fine if the emperor had the upper hand, but the problem was that he didn't. Eunuch Yuan wanted to hide but couldn't, so she was stupid enough to get close to him.

Xie Jingyan didn't know when he would be able to come out of the palace. Shen Wan probably wouldn't have lunch at the Marquis of Pingyang's Mansion, so he didn't say anything about going to pick her up.

After helping Shen Wan sit on the carriage, Xie Jingyan climbed on the horse and rode into the palace.

Eunuch Yuan had a severe headache. The young eunuch asked, "Eunuch, what about these memorials?"

Now that it has been delivered, he definitely cannot take it back, otherwise the emperor will scold him for not being able to do his job. Besides, Prince Ling did not say to bring the memorial back to the palace.

This loophole must be exploited.

Eunuch Yuan said decisively, "Put it down, put it down."

The young eunuch hurriedly handed the memorial on the tray to the servant of Prince Ling's Mansion, and followed Eunuch Yuan out of Prince Ling's Mansion, fearing that if they walked too slowly, the memorial would follow them back to the palace.

The servant was holding a tray and looking at Manager Zhou, who was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

Being able to help the emperor review memorials is something that many princes dream of, but when it comes to their prince, he despises it.

The memorial is not an ordinary thing. It can be placed in the outer courtyard and wait for the prince to come back to deal with it. Manager Zhou said, "Send it to Mo Yuxuan and ask the maid to put the memorial in the prince's study."
