The eldest sister was reborn and the younger sister traveled through time. I just want to survive.

Yan Muxi pushed the full cup of wine over, picked up the other cup of wine, and drank it all in one gulp.

Yu Wantai advised softly, "Eat some food first. Drinking on an empty stomach will make you drunk easily."

Yan Muxi slammed the table and shouted, "Stop talking nonsense and drink! We agreed to part ways in peace. As the prince of the Rong Palace, you can't bully me and drink alone."

After just one cup, she seemed drunk. The corners of her eyes were red, her gaze was blurry, and there was mist in her watery pupils. She was more harmful than the goblin in the mountains.

Meeting the misty eyes, Yu Wantai felt so heartbroken that he seemed to have lost his soul. He picked up the wine cup on the table and drank it all. "I drank it. I didn't bully you."

Watching him drink the wine, Yan Yongxi's eyes were filled with mist. "Yes, Young Master has never bullied me. He has never bullied me." She murmured, and the mist gathered more and more, turning into tears that rolled down her eyes.

She raised her hand to wipe away her tears, sniffed, and pushed the dishes to Yu Wantai, "Eat, the dishes I made specially for your birthday, you must eat them all, my lord."

"Okay, I'll eat it all." Yu Wantai suppressed the bitterness in his heart and hurriedly picked up the chopsticks to pick up the dishes, fearing that if he was slow, the little girl would shed more tears.

Yan Muxi also picked up the chopsticks and took small bites of the steaming noodle soup in front of her. She tried her best to hold back her tears, but she couldn't help it. Tears fell into the bowl one by one. The noodles seemed to be getting saltier and saltier, until they were difficult to swallow.

Yu Wantai couldn't bear to watch, and asked in a rude voice, "Why are you crying?"

Yan Muxi suddenly raised her head and said, "I want to cry so I can. It's none of your business. Just eat what you want."

Yu Wantai sighed inwardly, picked up the wine jug, and filled the empty cup with wine.

Yan Muxi didn't wait for Yu Wantai to offer him a glass of wine. He picked up the wine cup and drank it all in one gulp. After finishing it, he put the wine cup on the table with a "dong" sound, and said, "Fill it up again."

The wine jug contains Western wine, which is not easy to get drunk and a few drinks can help you sleep.

Yu Wantai just went along with her, and the two of them drank cup after cup until the jug was empty.

"Pour the wine, refill it, I want to drink more..." Yan Muxi's eyes were red, his tongue was tied and his body was swaying slightly, it was obvious that he was quite drunk.

Yu Wantai stepped forward and picked her up by the waist. She struggled unhappily, "Put me down. I want to drink more. I haven't had enough..."

Only when she was put on the bed in the inner room did she calm down a little, but her arms held Yu Wantai's neck tightly and refused to let go.

Yu Wantai bent his body, unable to move forward or backward, and even less able to move backward.

"...You are not allowed to leave, drink with me. You are not allowed to leave, you stay and accompany me..." Yan Muxi's tone became softer and softer, from the overbearing retention at the beginning to tearful pleading.

Having decided to let go, Yu Wantai didn't want to get too close to her anymore. However, looking at her tearful eyes, he couldn't utter a word of refusal.

After a long period of mental preparation, Yu Wantai finally said, "Be good, let go first. I'll help you take off your shoes."

"No need for you, I can take them off myself." Yan Muxi fluttered her little feet twice and kicked off her embroidered shoes.

Yu Wantai was both angry and amused, and coaxed her softly, "Stop making trouble, I'll help you take off your coat, okay?"

"No~ You take off your clothes first, and then I'll take them off after you're done." Yan Muxi hummed and acted coquettishly, and even raised her head and pecked her pink lips.

It was just a touch of the water, but it was like a raging fire. Yu Wantai's blood boiled and gathered towards one place.

With the last bit of sanity left, he tried to force the arm away from his neck.

But before he could exert any strength, the delicate woman under him suddenly pouted and started crying, "Wuwuwu...you bully me~you bully me..."

Yu Wantai often felt that, to him, the little girl's tears were much more useful than a sharp sword. As long as she cried, he had no other choice but to surrender.

When his clothes were stripped off, the last bit of rationality in his mind disappeared. He let her pester him and was led by her step by step to Wushan.

……

In Zhuxiang Hall, the maid who was on night watch was dozing off when a black shadow suddenly appeared before her eyes.

"It's me, you step back first."

Hearing the familiar voice, the maid suppressed the scream that was rising in her throat, bent over and left the room.

The black shadow was not someone else, but Yu Wantai, who was wearing a nightgown. He stood beside the bed, quietly looking at Princess Rong who was sleeping soundly on the bed.

As if sensing something, Princess Rong, who had been sleeping for several days, slowly opened her eyes. When she saw the person in front of her clearly, she smiled and called out, "Tai'er~"

Just like when she was a child, she smiled and called her child. Through the face in front of her, she seemed to see her son in his cradle, the way he took his first steps, the way he called her mother for the first time, the way he drew his bow and shot an arrow for the first time...

Yu Wantai sat down beside the bed, "My son is here!"

Princess Rong raised her hand, wanting to touch the face, but because she didn't have enough strength, she could only lift it a little bit and couldn't reach it no matter how hard she tried.

Yu Wantai leaned closer and placed his face in her palm.

As soon as her palm touched the warm cheek, Princess Rong withdrew her hand, tears rolling down her eyes, "I'm sorry, Tai'er, it's mother who is sorry for you. All your pain is caused by mother... I'm sorry, mother is wrong..."

If it weren't for her calculations, her child wouldn't have to join the royal family, wouldn't have to suffer so much and be controlled by others, and wouldn't have to abandon her beloved and go through fire and water to find a way to survive...

Yu Wantai wiped away her tears and comforted her with a trembling voice, "Mother has never been sorry for her son. Everything is his fate. Mother is not to blame."

Princess Rong's tears flowed even more fiercely, "You don't blame me, but I will regret it... Let's go, don't delay any longer, I know your feelings, I know everything... I just want you to fight for a way to survive and live a good life... My son, can stand up straight and live like a human being!"

Yu Wantai couldn't hold back any longer, tears welled up in his eyes, "Okay, son, listen to mother, and mother will be well too."

Princess Rong laughed while crying, and Yu Wantai also laughed with tears in his eyes.

He didn't ask his mother to wait for him, because it was impossible for her to wait.

This separation between mother and son was forever.

When Yan Muxi woke up the next day, Yu Wantai was no longer in the room.

Yinxia came in to serve, and she asked, "When did the prince leave?"

"When I came to the main courtyard, the young master had already left. I heard from the gatekeeper that the young master left the courtyard around three o'clock in the morning." Yin Xia said truthfully.

Yan Muxi didn't ask any more questions. After washing and dressing, she went to Zhuxiangtang.

Princess Rong's energy is declining. She is only awake for a short while every few days, and even when she wakes up she cannot eat. I'm afraid she won't be able to hold on for a few more days.

Yan Muxi glanced around the room, "Why can't I see my father?"

Ever since Princess Rong became seriously ill, old Prince Rong has been staying by her bedside all the time and rarely leaves the house unless it is necessary.

Yaer, who was serving the princess, replied, "The prince entered the palace early in the morning and should not be able to return home until the afternoon."

Yan Muxi asked again, "Did father tell me why I came to the palace? By the way, has the prince come to see mother today?"

Yaer said truthfully: "The prince did not give any instructions. The prince came to Zhuxiang Hall after midnight. The princess happened to wake up, and the mother and son talked alone for a while. After the prince left, the princess had tears in the corners of her eyes, so she must have cried."

Upon hearing that Yu Wantai had come, Princess Rong cried. Yan Muxi's heart was in suspense and it was difficult to calm down.

At the same time, in the Qianqing Palace, Emperor Yuanjing was also worried.
