When the prince is reborn, he will only hit me if he doesn't hit the wall!

Passing through the bushes, Qin Yuechuan finally brought her to the stream.

Xu Xinyue squatted down, scooped up a handful of clean water with her slender hands, and carefully washed her face, neck, and wrists.

There was no towel to wipe my body, and my clothes were not clean enough.

She raised her little face with some crystal water stains on it and asked Qin Yuechuan:

"My Lord, please help me check if it is clean?"

Qin Yuechuan leaned over, seemed to examine it carefully, and said, "No."

"Ok?"

Without waiting for Xu Xinyue to react, Qin Yuechuan squatted down, wet his hands, put his big palms on her little face, and caressed every inch of her skin with his fingertips.

He looked serious, as if he was really scrubbing the mud off her.

Only he himself knows.

He had wanted to do this for a long time. When he was at Xu's house, he really wanted to touch her little face.

The feel is exactly as imagined.

No, it's softer and smoother than I imagined.

"Fool."

What an idiot! In her previous life, even though she knew that he would not respond to her, she still did so many things for him without hesitation.

A girl like her worries so much for a prince all day long.

He didn't know she...

How could there be such a stupid girl?

Faced with such a gentle Qin Yuechuan, Xu Xinyue was still a little dazed.

She was a little surprised by what Qin Yuechuan suddenly said to her:

"what?"

He was calling her stupid?

"You can't even wash your face, what else can you be but an idiot?"

Xu Xinyue felt a little aggrieved: "There is no mirror here, and I can't see myself..."

Qin Yuechuan gently pinched her nose.

He took out a towel from his arms and wiped the water marks on her face.

He gently tidied her hair which was a little messy from sleeping.

"Okay, now it looks like a girl's home."

The two of them stood up together.

Xu Xinyue's stomach suddenly growled at an inopportune moment.

She looked away a little embarrassedly and looked at Qin Yuechuan instead.

"I'm a little hungry... I'm only given one steamed bun a day while I'm locked up there..."

Qin Yuechuan felt a little distressed and a little guilty:

"It's my fault. I forgot to tell you that there are snacks in the carriage. Let's go and have some snacks first. Then we will go back to the palace. I will ask Uncle Zhang to prepare delicious food for you."

Hearing about the delicious food, Xu Xinyue became visibly excited.

"Uh-huh."

"Your Majesty, may I make a request?"

"what?"

“Can we not make tofu?”

"No, you can't be picky about food."

"But I really don't like tofu..."

"That's not allowed..."

.........

The two figures gradually walked away and disappeared into the bushes again.

Qi Mobai walked out from not far away, looking at the pair of figures walking away together with a thoughtful look on his face.

Qingfeng and his group cleared out all the cargo boxes with the Xu family logo that Xu Xinyue mentioned in the mountain village and brought them to Qin Yuechuan.

Although some of them have slight signs of burning, they are generally well preserved.

The markings are also fairly clear.

“These are considered physical evidence, and we will transport these boxes back to the palace later.

Find a farm for those tenant farmers and take good care of them. Ensure their safety. They are witnesses. With witnesses and evidence, Master Xu San can prove his innocence and get away with it."

"Yes!" Qingfeng took the order and retreated.

Qin Yuechuan lifted the curtain and entered the carriage.

Xu Xinyue had already finished eating. She pushed the remaining half bag of snacks towards him:

"Your Highness, you haven't eaten yet, right? There's still plenty here to fill your stomach."

Qin Yuechuan was not really hungry. He took a look and shook his head, saying, "I don't really want to eat. You eat it."

When Xu Xinyue heard this, she realized something was wrong.

He is a prince, no matter how approachable he is, why would he eat the snacks left by me?

She said apologetically: "I'm sorry, it's my fault. I didn't mean to let you eat the leftovers. I just..."

Qin Yuechuan realized that she had misunderstood and was about to leave, but he sat back down.

He said seriously, "I thought I would have to go out for a while and might not be able to return to the palace for breakfast, so I want to have some snacks now."

He brought the remaining half bag of snacks in front of him and began to eat them slowly.

Xu Xinyue listened to his words without any doubt.

He took out a water bag and handed it to him: "The snacks are too dry, Your Majesty, drink some water to moisten your throat."

Qin Yuechuan naturally would not refuse. He opened the water bag and took a few big gulps.

Today's Qin Yuechuan...

Seems to be more obedient...

Is it her imagination?

But how could he listen to her?

Xu Xinyue felt that her idea was a little ridiculous.

She shook her head vigorously, trying to get rid of these unrealistic thoughts in her mind.

After eating and drinking their fill, the two prepared to set off back to the palace.

Qin Yuechuan told Xu Xinyue, "It's still some time before we return to the capital, you can sleep a little longer. I'll call you when we get to the palace."

Xu Xinyue was not sleepy, but nodded obediently.

Seeing how well-behaved she was, Qin Yuechuan smiled, reached out and stroked the top of her head, then got out of the carriage.

Qin Yuechuan and Qi Mobai rode their horses on both sides of the carriage.

Qi Mobai asked casually, "The prince seems to be very familiar with Miss Xu."

Qin Yuechuan looked forward without turning his head to look at him. He responded casually, "I was entrusted by Master Xu San to take good care of her."

Qi Mobai paused for a moment and asked again: "I heard that Miss Xu is now living in the palace?"

"Since it's about taking care of it, it should be kept under your eyes."

"Is it inappropriate for Your Majesty to do this? Miss Xu is not married yet, but Your Majesty is engaged. If this gets out, I'm afraid it will be bad for both you and Miss Xu."

The word "engagement" really stabbed Qin Yuechuan in the heart.

In the past, he just wanted to distance himself from Xu Mingxi and cancel the engagement.

Now, because of another thing, I feel that this engagement is even more of a hindrance.

I have never been so eager to cancel my engagement with Xu Mingxi as I am now.

Sooner or later he will be freed from this shackle!

Although he thought so in his heart, he didn't show it on his face at all.

"Those who are familiar with this matter will not spread it. The people in my Rong Palace are naturally keeping their mouths shut, but I don't know if some people are keeping their mouths shut enough."

The implication is that if there is a leak, the source will definitely be you, Qi Mobai.

Qi Mobai smiled calmly: "Your Highness, don't worry. Miss Xu has helped me, and I certainly won't be an ungrateful person."

Qin Yuechuan remained calm: "I hope so!"

After that, the two walked in silence.

Xu Xinyue, who was in the carriage, heard the conversation between the two clearly.

I feel like a thorn in my back and can't sit or stand still.

Who can tell her!

Why did she feel like the sparks flying between the two people outside the carriage were all caused by her!?
