"What are you thinking about?" asked the Sixth Prince Xiao Shen.

After leaving Yunjing and reaching Jizhou, the two people who were originally going to Danzhou will reunite.

Now that Xiao Xuan had made great achievements in the northern border, Xiao Shen could not sit still, so he volunteered to be the imperial censor in charge of building the canal.

Xie Yunji came back to his senses and said, "I didn't think about anything."

When he was young, he traveled all over the country, sometimes for a year or more than a month.

I've never wanted to go home more than now.

He began to miss her madly.

He told himself in his heart that he would never leave her again after he returned this time.

"You and your wife, are doing well?" Xiao Shen asked.

Xie Yunji suddenly remembered the gloomy look on her face when she found out that she was not pregnant.

"Very good." He answered briefly and was unwilling to talk more about this topic.

Ever since the day he realized that he had feelings for Song Nihuan, he deliberately avoided the things he had done to her in the past unintentionally.

He couldn't even remember why he had someone feed her the drug that would make her sterile.

After she was sent to the Jiaofangsi, she was sold to Furao Court. He wanted to see what she looked like after falling into the dust, and to see if she could still shine like before.

But her face was calm. Facing the madam and the ferocious eunuchs, she showed no grievance or flattery, nor any resentment at the sudden change of her status.

She calmly accepted the life that was about to face her.

After he returned, he tossed and turned at night. He could not get rid of her pair of black and white eyes, which were cold and indifferent, but much more attractive than those women with seductive eyes.

He suddenly had an idea. He couldn't let her fall any further. If she got pregnant again in such a dirty place, it would be troublesome. If she was destined to be his pawn in the future, it was better for her to be clean and not have any burden.

He had no intention of marrying her at that time.

From the first time he met her, she made him taste the jealousy, and at that time he couldn't tell the difference between this feeling and the hatred towards Xie Tan.

He remembered that on the mountain road when leaving Yunjing, she, who was still a young girl, took off the pearls, jade, hairpins and rings on her body and stuffed them into Xie Tan's arms. She said something to Xie Tan while holding back her tears. When she turned around to look at him, her dark pupils were cold and her red lips were slightly raised with obvious sarcasm.

Looking at Xie Tan's disappearing back, he felt so angry that his teeth itched. But when he looked up and saw her, his heart itched.

This feeling made him, a teenager, feel out of control for the first time. He didn't dare to think about what that unresolved feeling of loss of control was like.

He just wanted to quickly cut off his chaotic thoughts; being out of control would make him feel uneasy and irritated.

He likes the feeling of being in control of everything, including a person's destiny.

Looking back on the past now, it seems like he didn't do anything, but it's harder to undo what he did.

He also deeply realized that people really do change. For example, he now regrets his inaction.

What if he could help her after finding out that she was bought by a brothel?

But he didn't.

He just watched her sinking in the mud with evil amusement, and watched Xie Tan running around in circles in a hurry.

It seemed as if both of them had bowed to fate.

He felt as if he could not breathe when he thought about how he had made her endure three years in that place.

He accidentally made an irreparable mistake.

Xie Yunji has been a favored child since birth, and he doesn't know what this feeling is called - "regret".

It was blocking his heart, making him unable to live or die.

"What does the Pinga Fuyu mean?" Xie Yunji opened his mouth and realized that his voice was a little weak. "Celebrating the Queen Mother's birthday is obviously a cover. What does he want to do?"

"Your young wife is so attractive that he fell in love with her after just one look." Xiao Shen said with a smile, "You have been married for almost two years, right? Why haven't you gotten tired of her yet?"

Seeing his expression change, Xiao Shen teased again, "Pinga Fuyu was sent there on a mission by the imperial decree. If something ridiculous happens to her, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of the empress? You can't figure this out? You are confused because you care too much. Just relax!"

Seeing Xie Yunji obviously relaxed, he was silent for a moment and then said, "You sent her to the brothel and took her out, taking her in and releasing her, so why now..."

"I didn't." Xie Yunji interrupted him suddenly, his eyes obscure and sharp, he lowered his voice and said, "I didn't interfere in the matter of Minister Song."

The four words "no intervention" are very subtle.

*

Ever since Xie Yunji left, Song Nihuan always felt cold.

After sitting in the room for a while, lying on the bed, or daydreaming unconsciously in the evening, my hands and feet became cold.

She knew that this was her longing for Xie Yunji.

But the longing was not pure, she knew clearly that there was resentment in it.

Blame him for leaving without saying anything.

But this kind of resentment is difficult to accept, so she didn't say it.

Fortunately, the busyness during the day has diluted this longing.

What was she busy with? Of course, she was embroidering for the Queen Mother. That Pinga Fuyu really came here very often, and she really took the job of pleasing people seriously.

Fortunately, Mrs. Wei told her secretly about this man's evil deeds, otherwise she would have been deceived by his harmless appearance.

"Young Madam, Prince Pingjia is already waiting in the flower hall." The maid reminded.

He came early. As they say, one does not get up early without benefit. How big a benefit must he have to keep him hanging... Song Nihuan complained inwardly. Just as he stood up and was about to go to the flower hall, he thought of something and turned back.

The medicine was too hot just now, and I forgot to drink it while it was lying there.

She pinched her nose and swallowed the bitter medicine in one breath. The maid handed Gan Xing to her, but she waved her hand and said, "No, no, don't affect the efficacy of the medicine."

Today, a group of ladies of honor were invited to gather in the flower hall of Xie's mansion to pray and embroider for the Empress Dowager.

When Song Nihuan arrived, Pinga Fuyu was sitting lazily in the armchair, waiting for her bored.

"Greetings, Young Prime Minister Pingjia." She bowed her head and saluted.

"Floating Jade." he said.

Song Nihuan knew she couldn't get away with it, so she said, "Mr. Fu Yu."

His narrow eyes were narrowed, and he looked at her with a complex and frightening look, but when she looked more closely, he looked nonchalant again.

"Is the young lady ill?" Pinga Fuyu's eyes moved slightly, and suddenly he said, "I have a good nose, don't hide it from me."

Song Nihuan's heart trembled. Does this person have a dog nose? The only drawback of the medicine that is good for pregnancy is that it has a strong smell. It's also her fault. She should have drunk it earlier.

Just as she was thinking about how to fool him, a maid came over from under the eaves to announce the visit of Princess Le Yi.

Song Nihuan thought secretly. She had heard the rumor that Princess Le Yi was infatuated with Xie Yunji, but she had been married for so long that she almost forgot about it...

There was no princess on the list of people to be embroidered with the longevity painting for the empress dowager.

I don't know what she is doing here...

Song Nihuan looked up uneasily and saw Pinga Fuyu looking at her. His eyes were clear and made her feel inexplicably at ease.
