After Bai Meng walked out of the palace, Yan Huan took out two pieces of bone covered with words from under the bed.

After putting the bone fragment into her sleeve, she stuffed the small bottle she had hidden yesterday into her arms, tidied her clothes, and then walked out of the hall.

When Yan Huan came out, Bai Meng had sorted out his thoughts and returned to his normal self.

Bai Meng took Yan Huan's hand, looked at this peerless face that brought disaster to the country and the people, sighed softly in his heart, and said softly: "Let's go."

Yan Huan raised her head and smiled brightly towards the sun: "Okay, let's go together."

Then the two of them walked towards the deep palace hand in hand, talking and laughing.

It was just past noon and the children were all sleeping, including Jun, who had just turned one year old.

Bai Meng looked at her sleeping son, reached out and gently touched his cheek, with joy and sadness in her eyes.

If only I didn’t know the truth!

Yan Huan secretly gave the bone fragment to the old woman and asked her to find a chance to put it under Jun's bed.

Then she walked to Bai Meng and looked at the sleeping child, with love in her eyes deeper than the sea.

Yan Huan whispered, "Meng, can we take the child home today?"

Bai Meng was a little hesitant. He didn't know how he would die and was worried about hurting the child.

"Okay?" Yan Huan said again with a trembling voice, a hint of pleading in his eyes.

Why is she like this?

Looking at Yan Huan, Bai Meng frowned and thought: "I'm worried that the two of us can't take good care of Jun."

Yan Huan felt relieved and smiled again: "You can ask the old woman to come with you to help watch over it."

"Row."

Bai Meng agreed after a brief thought. He just thought that Yan Huan wanted to spend more time with the child, and there would probably be no problem with the old woman watching over him.

Even if he died, Yan Huan wouldn't be too panicked because he had someone to accompany him.

Yan Huan hugged Bai Meng's arm tightly, and looked at the child on the bed with him, his eyes deep and no one knew what he was thinking.

The old woman behind them stood quietly where the sunlight could not reach, secretly examining the contents on the bone fragments.

After reading it, the old woman took a deep breath, her cloudy old eyes revealed determination, and she looked at Yan Huan with admiration and heartache.

After a while, Bai Meng pulled Yan Huan to the door and said, "Huan, you stay here with the child first. I'm going to talk to my eldest brother and will be back soon."

Yan Huan was thinking about how to get rid of him, so he nodded and said, "Meng, be careful on the road, I'll wait for you here."

Holding up the pretty face in front of him and gently pecking her red lips, Bai Meng smiled and said, "Well, our family will have a reunion dinner tonight."

Yan Huan rolled her eyes at him and said, "Go quickly, don't waste time."

Finally, he looked at her deeply, wanting to keep her in his memory forever, then Bai Meng turned around and left in a hurry.

After Bai Meng left, Yan Huan took out a small bottle and handed it to the old woman, and ordered in a stiff tone: "Pour the witch poison into the wine sent by Shi Guo."

The old woman took the vial with both hands and said in a trembling voice: "Princess, you don't have to..."

"Shut up!" Yan Huan gave her a cold look and growled, "I've already lost my life!"

The old woman looked at Yan Huan's waist and found that the vital bone was indeed missing. She could no longer say any words of comfort and could only bow and say, "I obey your command!"

Then Yan Huan slowly walked to the bed, sat beside the child, and looked at him quietly as he slept, like a clay sculpture.

Shi Guoming bones are made by polishing and stringing together animal bones, and are usually given by parents to their unmarried children.

After getting married, if the person is someone you can entrust your life to, you can choose whether to discard your life bones.

If she abandons it, it means that she is willing to live and die with her lover!

If he dies, she will die too, she will never live alone!

At this moment, Bai Meng did not go to find Di Jie, but returned home.

Close the palace door.

Bai Meng found two pieces of cloth and spread them out on the table.

Then he picked up the pen, thought for a moment, and began to write quickly. This was a suicide note and also a last letter.

The first piece of cloth was written to Di Jie, asking him to take good care of Yan Huan and her son, and that his death was completely an accident and not to implicate others.

Finally, after giving Di Jie some good advice, he put Yu down, picked up the cloth, and put it down in a place with light.

The second piece of cloth was left for Yan Huan. Bai Meng thought for a long time before he started writing.

He didn't say too many sentimental words, he just told her to live well and go to his elder brother if she had any problems.

Finally, he revealed some things about Xuanzeng Kingdom and asked her to make plans early. If it doesn't work out, she can take Jun back to Shi Kingdom. Her eldest brother should agree.

And with her own halo, no one should dare to attack them and their son, and they should be able to live a life without worries about food and clothing.

After finishing writing, Bai Meng also took the piece of cloth to the sun. It took quite a while for both pieces of cloth to dry.

Putting away the two pieces of cloth, he opened the palace door and called in a palace guard. Bai Meng took out the first piece of cloth and ordered, "Give this to the king tomorrow."

The guard took the cloth, carefully put it in his arms, and said respectfully: "As you command!"

After the guards left, Bai Meng walked around the palace but still couldn't decide where to put it.

Finally, he placed the cloth he left for Yan Huan on the table and pressed it with a small stone tool.

Bai Meng walked out of the palace, stood in front of the door, looked at the setting sun, and then walked into the deep palace.

It's time to take the mother and son home.

There are many farmlands deep in the palace, which are used exclusively for food supply to the king and his family. They are also places to teach children how to farm and study.

During the Great Qiu Kingdom period, even children of nobles had to learn how to farm and recognize grains.

Unlike later generations, there are even experts who can say things like "Food is not grown by farmers' hard work, it grows from the ground itself", which is laughable.

According to modern calculation, it is probably around 3 o'clock in the afternoon.

Led by minor officials, a group of children aged seven or eight were working in the fields.

And it's definitely not just for show.

The children looked extremely serious and took good care of every grain of wheat.

The wheat in the fields is also growing well.

The parents of these children are all members of the Si clan or descendants of Liushi.

They are nobles in the Great Qiu Kingdom!

This is unimaginable in modern cities.

"After a while, we will be able to see patches of golden color."

Meng was the same as them when he was a child, and Bai Meng was even more so, as they were a family of farmers for generations.

At a glance, you can tell that the wheat is about to mature.

It’s a pity that he certainly won’t be able to see the beautiful scenery at that time.

While thinking about his worries, Bai Meng saw from afar Yan Huan walking in the yard with the child in her arms, and heard giggling.

"Although there weren't many entertainment activities in ancient times, this kind of quiet and ordinary life seems to suit me very well."

Bai Meng smiled and walked quickly towards the mother and child in front of her.

Yan Huan also noticed Bai Meng, so she stood in the sun holding the child, waiting for him to come over.

There is a maternal glow in her smile, which is very charming.

Walking closer and taking the child from Yan Huan's arms, Bai Meng smiled and said, "You must have waited for a long time."

Yan Huan shook her head: "Jun just woke up a while ago."

Bai Meng held the child in one hand and took Yan Huan's hand with the other, saying, "Let's go home."

Yan Huan looked at him, looked at him, and just looked at him quietly.

"go home!"
