After soaking in the warm water and consuming a lot of energy, Xu Xinyue's consciousness began to become a little groggy. Although she was lying on Qin Yuechuan's body, her body lost strength little by little and slid underwater.

Qin Yuechuan reacted very quickly, pulled her back and carried her out of the bath.

Xu Xinyue leaned on his arms, half dazed and half awake, and whispered: "Qin Yuechuan... I'm so sleepy..."

"Wait a moment, Yueyue, can you go back to sleep later?"

"Let's drink the medicinal wine first."

Qin Yuechuan took the wedding wine jug with one hand, poured the light brown translucent wine into the white jade wine cup, and handed it to her lips.

"You consumed too much just now. Drinking will be good for you. Be good, drink and then we will go to rest."

When Xu Xinyue was feeling sleepy, she smelled the pungent smell of the medicinal wine. She had no intention of identifying the ingredients in it. She turned her head away and said subconsciously, "My mother said that we should not take anything we don't know about..."

Qin Yuechuan: "..."

At this time, don’t worry about what your mother said or not…

Qin Yuechuan sighed, and seeing that Xu Xinyue was about to fall asleep, he tilted his head back to drink the contents of the cup, then turned her little face and forced the liquid into her mouth.

"Woo..."

Xu Xinyue clenched her teeth, but someone's lips and tongue pried them open, and she was forced to take the sour food.

Xu Xinyue's head was forcibly fixed, and she could not escape. She pushed him hard with both hands, but it was naturally in vain.

In just a few breaths, the entire glass of wine went down his throat. Xu Xinyue's tongue was numb from the bitterness, and he was mostly conscious. He covered his mouth and glared at Qin Yuechuan without any threat. After holding it in for a long time, he just muttered in a low voice: "Ashe, bad!"

Qin Yuechuan was too weak to argue at the moment. He pressed Xu Xinyue's sleeping points, changed her into dry clothes, tidied himself up, and carried her back to the main courtyard.

When Xu Xinyue woke up, it was still dark outside the window.

She just felt sore all over, she couldn't tell whether it was pain in the skin or in the bones, but it was pain anyway.

She didn't sleep well last night. In her dream, she seemed to feel soft touches pecking her cheeks, neck and body countless times.

It feels both crisp and numb, soft and slow.

She was extremely sleepy, but her fingers were tightly bound and she couldn't get free.

Like a cloud-feather boat, unable to struggle.

When the wind and clouds are surging, we can only let it go and go with the flow.

I can't sleep well.

When he turned around, he found that Qin Yuechuan was not by his side.

Xu Xinyue stood up in confusion. It was so early today. Did she still need to go to the palace to meet His Majesty? Didn't they say that she was exempted from the obligation?

Xu Xinyue called Xiaochan.

"Princess, are you awake?"

"Where's Qin Yuechuan?"

"The prince has already set out on the march..."

Xu Xinyue was stunned: "So fast! Why didn't you wake me up?"

"I wanted to wake you up, but the prince said you were too tired last night and needed a good rest, so he asked us not to disturb you..."

Xu Xinyue turned over and got off the bed, asking Xiaochan to help her get dressed: "Where is he now?"

"About, we're almost out of town—"

The wind was cold and the morning mist was thick. It was almost dawn and the emperor was seeing off his army at the city gate.

"We will surely be victorious in this trip to the Northern Frontier. I hope you will return in triumph. I am waiting for good news here!"

"As a son, I will not disappoint my father's expectations."

Qin Yuechuan was wearing silver armor, which looked sharp and fierce.

His brows were solemn, and his eyes, as dark as ink, were full of firmness and decisiveness. His red cloak fluttered in the north wind.

Qin Yuechuan reined in the red horse that was trampling on all fours, faced the army, and shouted:

"God bless Beixuan, our army will win!"

One call and a hundred responses.

"God bless Beixuan, our army will win!"

Magnificent and inspiring.

As the army marched forward, Qing Yuechuan was at the front.

Qingyang rode forward and asked: "Your Majesty, are you really not going to say goodbye to the princess?"

When mentioning Xu Xinyue, a hint of tenderness appeared on Qin Yuechuan's face.

He and she were most reluctant to mention the word "farewell".

As if I had never experienced farewell, I could still tell myself that this trip was not a long separation from her, but just a short absence.

The world is so close yet so far away, it’s all in the mind.

Just as he was about to speak, he heard the clatter of horse hooves behind him, accompanied by a vague neighing voice:

"Qin Yuechuan——————"

Qin Yuechuan suddenly turned around, his heart was suddenly stirred up, and huge waves were set off.

He would never mistake this voice, it was Xu Xinyue!

Qin Yuechuan gave Qingyang an instruction and rode his horse quickly towards the tiny figure like a star.

Xu Xinyue's throat was aching from calling out, and suddenly she saw a man on a horse moving towards her quickly.

As the sun rises, a man in silver armor walks against the light and on the wind.

Xu Xinyue pretended to be angry: "Qin Yuechuan, you..."

Before he finished speaking, the red chestnut horse passed by, and Qin Yuechuan stretched out his arms and took her in his arms, sitting her sideways in front of him.

Xu Xinyue took a breath for a moment, raised her head and snorted at him: "Do you know what you look like right now?"

"like what?"

"Like a 'loafer' in a brothel! He ate everything and left without even saying hello."

She curled her lips: "If I hadn't known that we were married, I would have thought that I was being flirted with..."

"I was wrong." Qin Yuechuan lowered his voice involuntarily after hearing her scolding. "I always feel that if we haven't faced each other, it can't be considered a farewell. Yueyue just thought that I was away from home for a while and went to do something."

"Have you read the letter I left for you, Yueyue?"

"I'm in a hurry to go out, I haven't yet."

"When I'm not in Kyoto, Xuanxiao Pavilion will only listen to Yueyue's orders. If there are any troubles, you can send them to deal with them."

"Xuanxiao Pavilion?"

"Well, if you have any questions, you can ask Xuanyi. Mother's jade pendant is the letter."

He squeezed Xu Xianyue's slightly cool fingertips and said, "I've been preparing for nearly half a year. Now it can finally be put to use. Protect Yueyue for me."

Xu Xianyue fell silent and looked at him for a long while. The little resentment she had in the beginning disappeared, and what remained was only reluctance and worry: "Qin Yuechuan, whether you can go to Nanyuan or not, and whether you can open a shop there or not, it doesn't matter -"

"As long as you are well."

“Even if, even if—” She seemed to be choking and couldn’t bear to speak, but there were some things she couldn’t help but say. After taking a breath, she said, “Even if you only have one breath left, you have to crawl back here. Do you hear me?”

She grabbed his ears with both hands and said, "Did you hear me? If anything happens to you, I'm telling you, I won't die with you. Anyway, your palace is mine, so I'll pack up and sell everything in it. I'll use it as capital to open a shop, and then I can live a carefree life somewhere else."

"The oath only counts while you are alive!"

Xu Xinyue said viciously: "I can do it!"

Qin Yuechuan seemed to be thinking about something, and nodded in agreement: "If that's the case, that's good, I can rest assured..."

"Qin Yuechuan!!"

Xu Xinyue was angry and pretended to use force while pulling his ear.

Qin Yuechuan begged for mercy: "I was just talking nonsense. How could I bear to leave Yueyue alone?"

The mistakes of the previous life will never be repeated in this life.

After thinking for a while, he said again:

"No matter what news you hear in the coming days and months, you don't have to believe it. I will do what I promised you. I promise."

Xu Xinyue seemed to have noticed something, but did not ask any more questions:

"Take the purse I gave you and I'll wait for you to come back."

"Ah."

Xu Xinyue looked at him, took the initiative to grab her neck, and forced him down, making him lower his head. The cold iron armor made her fingers tremble.

Xu Xinyue had no scruples and instead hugged her even tighter.

Just like last night, she covered his lips.

Qin Yuechuan naturally steadied her waist, closed his eyes and tossed and turned, seizing the last chance to absorb her breath before leaving.

After a long while, the two of them parted their lips and teeth, and their foreheads touched. Qin Yuechuan chuckled and said, "Yueyue has 'started her apprenticeship'."

Xu Xinyue knew he was joking, so she pretended to be angry and said, "Shut up, Qin Yuechuan."

It was light and soft, like a feather, and had no deterrent power, but only made him feel itchy.

He just responded tenderly: "Yeah."

Sending you thousands of miles, you have to say goodbye in the end.

Qin Yuechuan helped her land on the ground, took one last look at her jade-like face, gritted his teeth, and ruthlessly urged her to go against the wind and catch up with the army in front.

In the pavilion on the hill in the distance, Hong Yu and Qin Liexing, one standing and one sitting, watched the lovers below bidding farewell, and could not help but sigh: "It's really touching, newlyweds are forced to be separated."

He stroked the snow-white raccoon in his arms and said to Hongyu without turning his head: "Hongyu, you should also prepare to welcome your new body."
