"Thank you for your hard work, Yuebao. I'll give you a kiss as a reward."

Shen Yici put his arms around her neck and kissed her, but to avoid an accidental kiss, he kissed her for a short while and then let her go.

To be honest, he didn't kiss enough.

"Can we have dinner?"

"I used a little bit, and it's still warming in the kitchen. I didn't finish the stewed chicken soup, so I saved it for you. You came back so soon, I guess you didn't eat much, so use some more."

"it is good."

The two of them ate a little more lightly, and not long after Yun Shuyue had finished her meal, the medicine soup was brought over.

Two bowls.

Shen Yici had a sad face, and he knew without asking that the other bowl was prepared for him.

"Moon treasure~"

Yun Shuyue put her finger on his forehead and said, "It's no use acting like a spoiled child. You need to take good care of your body."

Shen Yici pursed his lips, picked up the medicine bowl, and drank it all in one gulp with tears streaming down his face. After rinsing his mouth, he immediately stuffed a candied fruit into Yun Shuyue's arms and said intermittently, "We have known each other for several years, and have been married for three years. In the end, you still want to kill me. Yun Shuyue, have you ever loved me? Even if it's only a little bit?"

Yun Shuyue: “…” They started acting again.

"Forget it, forget it. Instead of lying to me, it's better not to tell me. After all, all these years of love were wasted..."

His hands fell limply, and a tear slid down the corner of his eye.

Chang Li came over with cakes in his hand, not knowing why, "Master! You..."

Yun Shuyue looked helpless and touched his hair, "He's alive and well."

Shen Yici opened his eyes and stuck out his tongue, "Changli, did I act like that?"

"Like, I almost thought that the master really..."

"Your master is reluctant to do so," Shen Yici waved at her, "bring the cakes over quickly, the medicine is too bitter."

"Yes." Chang Li walked quickly forward and handed over the pastries on the plate.

Yun Shuyue had a blank expression on her face, "You should listen to him now."

Changli: I have no choice. It’s because the prince consort gave me so much.

"Changli, your monthly salary is with me."

Shen Yici's threat was obvious.

"Don't worry, Prince Consort. The master did not drink alcohol when he entered the palace, and no other men approached him."

Yun Shuyue: “…”

Shen Yici took out some change from his sleeve and said, "Reward."

"I thank you, Prince Consort."

"That's my money." Yun Shuyue reminded.

"What's yours is mine, and what's mine is still mine. The key to the storehouse is with me. Everyone in the mansion must listen to me, and you must listen to me too."

"I am yours now, who should I listen to if not you?"

Chang Li: It’s so disgusting. Is this still the serious master in her impression?

"Back off, it's none of your business."

"Yes."

"Carry you to bed and rest."

"Can you hold me?"

"Try?"

"Why are you trying? It's just a few steps. It's not like my legs are broken and I can't walk. Even if I'm light, I still have weight. Just be good and don't cause trouble."

"Ah."

As soon as Shen Yici stood up, Yun Shuyue picked him up and laid him on the bed.

"Yun Shuyue," Shen Yici was amused by her, "You weigh 96 kilograms, but you are 95 kilograms rebellious. You insist on doing whatever I tell you not to do, and you insist on going against me. Have you seen my fist as big as a sandbag?"

"did not see it."

"you……"

"I know my body condition well. I'm not weak yet. It's getting late. I should wash up and go to bed."

After washing up, go to bed.

imperial study room

Yun Min smashed everything he could, his chest heaving violently, obviously he was very angry.

"Your Majesty, calm down and be careful not to hurt the dragon's body."

"This is ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous. The thoughts of Yongping Hou are written on his face! Is this a slap in the face of Yun Shuyue? This is a slap in the face of me!"

"I saw that when the princess left, her face was ashen, and it was obvious that she was also very angry."

"Is she angry at Yongping Hou and the others? She is angry at me. I knew it was a trap set by them, but I still pushed her into it."

"Your Majesty," Eunuch Gao stroked his back to calm him down, "The eldest princess has always been proud and arrogant. Now that you have arranged for her to marry a fool, she is naturally unhappy. If the eldest princess is unhappy, how can the Sun family and Yongping Marquis be happy? You, just watch how they fight, it has nothing to do with you. If the eldest princess asks, just say that you are worried about her health, pick out a few rare items, and send them to the mansion to comfort her."

"After all, the princess's current honor and favor were given by you, Your Majesty. Even if she is resentful, so what? You are her father, and the princess knows her limits. Lord Sun has already pleaded for her in the palace just now. There is nothing you can do if you disagree."

Eunuch Gao's eyes flickered slightly, "Your Majesty, why don't you release the regent from his confinement in advance and tell him the truth about what happened today? With the regent here, are you still afraid that you can't bring down the Sun family?"

Eunuch Gao saw his dilemma and suggested, "Just tell the regent to arrange the princess's marriage. The regent's affair was known to everyone. Now you can use this incident to dampen his arrogance."

Yun Min pondered for a moment, then waved his hand and wrote two imperial edicts, one to lift Lu Jinnian's house arrest, and the other to grant marriage to Yun Shuyue and Shen Yici.

"Let Lu Jinnian go and announce the decree. Make sure he personally delivers the imperial edict to the princess."

"Yes."

Regent's House

Lu Jinnian knelt in the ancestral hall in plain clothes, turning the Buddhist beads with one hand, beating the wooden fish with the other, chanting scriptures, and praying for Yun Shuyue.

"Your Majesty, please take a rest and have some breakfast."

Lu Jinnian remained unmoved. After reciting the last sentence of the scripture, he stopped moving, stood up and walked to the table, lit three incense sticks, inserted them into the incense burner, and then returned to the bedroom to wash his hands and eat.

"If the princess knew the whole story, I think she wouldn't hate you so much."

Lu Jinnian stroked the jade pendant on his waist and said, "Even if she knew, she would not forgive me. I was the one who betrayed her and hurt her."

"You can't be blamed entirely on you. If Miss Bai and the Queen hadn't secretly colluded to put the Forgetfulness Gu on you, you wouldn't have treated the princess like that. You might have been married and had a little master already."

"Your Highness, someone is coming from the palace!" the butler knocked on the door to report.

Lu Jinnian was surprised and led the people in the mansion to the hall.

"Eunuch Gao."

"Prince Regent, His Majesty has issued an order. Please accept it."

"The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims that Prince Regent Lu Jinnian has disrespected the Emperor's grace and brought shame to the Imperial Family. He has been confined to his house for two years. Now, Princess Regent Yun Shuyue has returned to the capital and is happily married to Prince Shen Yici, the son of the Marquis of Yongping. They are a perfect match and will be married on the seventh day of the first lunar month. Thinking of our old friendship, I will allow him to atone for his sins and assist the Ministry of Rites in handling all matters related to the wedding. I decree this!"

Lu Jinnian knelt there for a long time without moving. A wedding? She was getting married? The son of Yongping Hou...

"Prince Regent," Eunuch Gao held up the imperial edict, "accept it. We will have to trouble you to go to the Princess's residence in person to read the marriage edict and personally deliver it to the Princess."
