Chapter 697 Jia Heng: Sister-in-law Zhu these years, it's not easy being alone

Chapter 697 Jia Heng: Sister-in-law Zhu, it's not easy being alone all these years...

Jia Heng drew up and sorted out the records of the salt company in the study until it was dusk, calling Qingwen to prepare hot water, take a bath, wash off the scent of the herb of picking and stalking double lotus, and went out of the wing At that time, I saw the setting sun and the sky full of sunset clouds.

The golden-red glow shrouded the entire courtyard. In the distance, cornices and hooks, carved beams and painted buildings, and the winding and undulating ridge are like a black dragon quietly waiting for the night.

Jia Heng's gaze was lost in thought, and he couldn't help but think of Zhen Xue, who had a gentle temperament like water.

"My lord, Sister-in-law Zhu just sent her maid, Suyun, to ask me when she will be there." Qingwen came slowly, and raised her eyes to look at the young man in the green shirt, who was standing under the eaves of the porch, looking at the sunset.

Just now, Young Master Cai and Princess Beijing were staying in the study, and they didn't know what to do. Anyway, the clothes they changed after taking a bath, the scent of powder and powder was quite cloying.

Because Sister Feng said earlier, because of his son Jia Lan's studies, Li Wan wanted to ask Jia Heng to be his host alone.

Jia Heng looked back at Qing Wen, and said in a low voice, "I'll go right away."

While talking, they came to Baoxia together with Qingwen, and they saw Suyun, Li Wan's servant girl, a girl with emerald green hair and pinched teeth, with an anxious expression on her face, obviously she had been waiting for a while.

"Grandpa, grandma has prepared food and wine, just waiting for grandpa to come over." Seeing Jia Heng, Suyun was overjoyed.

"Let's go." Jia Heng nodded and didn't say much.

At this moment, the courtyard where Li Wan lives is spacious and elegant. Under the flower wall in the southwest, there are lush vines and vines, peonies, roses, lilies and other flowers. The shadows of butterflies are flying back and forth on the white mud walls of the green eaves.

In the wing room, Li Wan sat beside a round wooden table with all kinds of food, raised his head from time to time, looked out the window, the sky was about to fall, and the surroundings were surprisingly quiet.

The young Huaxin woman who has been widowed for many years, put on a horse-face skirt embroidered with orchid plum blossoms, her lush green silk was tied up in a bun with a jasper hairpin, her beautiful and Shuning face, her cheeks and lips It seems that there is a layer of rouge and gouache on it, which is undetectable.

Jia Lan was not here today, but Li Wan invited Jia Heng to a banquet alone.

Suddenly, a cool summer breeze suddenly blows, and slowly blows the curtain on the side of the casement. In the smoked cage with animal patterns in the house, a few wisps of green smoke ignited by spices mixed with ice cream rise up. The loneliness and loneliness seem to be accompanied by the twilight. The sagging, the fading of the hot air, the lingering fragrance... like the tide, it envelops and obliterates the body and mind of the young woman in Huaxin.

At this moment, an embroidered shoe crossed the threshold, and Biyue, who entered the room, uttered a word to wake Li Wan from his stupor, saying, "Grandma, Master Heng is here."

Hearing this, Li Wan's thoughts turned, and he quickly got up, but before he could go around the screen, the beautiful eyes under the beautiful black eyebrows moved, and he saw a young man in a blue shirt and a blue square scarf on his head. step in.

Jia Heng entered the wing room and looked up at Li Wan who was standing dignifiedly.

This young woman from Huaxin, who was born in a family of famous eunuchs in Jinling, is beautiful and upright. She wears a blue dress with simple and elegant decorations, without any jewels and jewels, and the flowers are flamboyant.

Looking closely, there is a bit of unspeakable and difficult to capture melancholy between Wanli's eyebrows and eyes.

Jia Heng said in a calm and somewhat natural voice, "Sister Zhu, how have you been?"

After all, Li Xia in the melon field, if it wasn't for Jia Lan, he wouldn't really want to go to Li Wan's invitation.

If according to the original book, Li Wan lives in Daoxiang Village, where apricot trees are bursting with flames, and when he was drunk, he reached out and touched the key on Pinger's waist... It is conceivable that this long-term widowhood makes the young woman's temperament Quite depressing.

"Brother Heng, are you here?" Seeing the tall and handsome young man who seemed to be against the sun's rays, Li Wan's elegant and graceful face showed joy, and he called out.

Jia Heng nodded, and said in a gentle voice: "Sister-in-law Zhu kindly invites you, so it's hard not to make an appointment."

Hearing this, Li Wan invited Jia Heng to sit down, and the maid served tea, and the aroma of the teacup dissipated with the steaming heat.

Li Wan tidied up his words, and said softly: "Brother Heng, Lang Ge'er's studies need more attention from you."

Jia Heng picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said softly: "Brother Lang is the seed of study in the clan, even if there is no sister-in-law Zhu to entrust him, I will take good care of him."

As he spoke, he glanced at Li Wan's side, and said with a smile, "Why, Brother Lan isn't here today?"

Li Wan said softly: "There is still homework in the school today, so I didn't come back."

Jia Heng nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Then, under the guidance of Li Wan, she sat down by the dining table. At this time, the maid prepared a basin of clean water and waited for Jia Heng to wash his hands.

In the sound of "crash la la", Li Wan looked at the young man who was Yuan Ting and Yue Zhi, licked his moist lips, and said softly: "Lang Geer, I have to trouble Brother Heng to help me with my studies. Make up your mind."

Jia Heng took the towel, wiped his hands lightly, looked at Li Wan, and said, "Sister-in-law Zhu, Sister-in-law Feng told me before, and I mentioned it to my sister-in-law before, Brother Lan is still young, so my sister-in-law can't act too hastily." , the foundation is solid, and it is not too late.”

Hearing this, Li Wan's Suya Yurong was silent for a while, and asked: "I think if Lan Geer can learn earlier, it will be better."

Jia Heng said softly: "Even if you enter school early and become a scholar, the exams for raising people and being a Jinshi are difficult and difficult. If there are any more setbacks, it is inevitable that the child and sister-in-law have also studied for a small age. That’s because weeding out seedlings encourages them to grow.”

In order to protect and sharpen the child prodigy, some even deliberately dismissed him in the rural examination, such as Zhang Baigui.

Seeing Li Wan frowning and contemplating, and his beautiful face reflected by the lights clearly showing his thoughts, Jia Heng continued: "If it is for fame and glory, even if he does not pass the imperial examinations, I will ensure that he has a background in the future. "

"Brother Heng, Lan Ge'er was born with a weak nature and is not suitable to go to the front of the two armies to practice martial arts. I still hope that he can become an official with his career." Li Wan said softly.

Although those titles are decent and honorable, they are all risking their lives, and the bowl of rich and noble rice is not delicious.

Jia Heng said softly: "He will definitely not be allowed to practice martial arts in the army. He is still a civil servant. Of course, I mean don't worry. I know that Mrs. Zhu taught him a lot when she was at home."

Li Wan is basically a crazy chicken baby.

Li Wanyu paused slightly, gently folded the handkerchief in the armhole with her slender hands, said with a little embarrassment, "But now I can't teach anymore, Brother Heng, do you want to hire another good teacher?"

Jia Heng said: "Then I will talk to the lecturer in the school, pick a teacher who is good in morality and knowledge, and teach Lan Geer well."

"Brother Heng, that's what I meant." Seeing that Jia Heng readily agreed, Li Wan invited with a bit of joy in his eyes, "Brother Heng, let's just talk, let's eat first."

Jia Heng nodded, sat down, and picked up the chopsticks.

Li Wan picked up the jug, poured two glasses of wine, handed one to Jia Heng, immediately raised the wine cup, looked up at the young man, and said, "Brother Heng, Brother Lang has a lot to do with his studies. Please, I offer you a toast."

"Sister-in-law Zhu is polite." Jia Heng picked up the wine cup, clinked a glass with Li Wan, drank the wine, and asked, "Sister-in-law Zhu's father is now in Jinling?"

"Father is recuperating in Jinling now." Li Wanyu paused slightly, pursed her pink lips, and she didn't know whether it was because of the heat or drinking on her face, her gentle and beautiful cheeks were a little flushed.

Jia Heng put down the wine cup and asked, "Does Sister-in-law Zhu have any other brothers and sisters?"

You can't let the meal be cold, so he can only talk more.

"It turned out that there was an elder brother who was born in Juren and was in charge of the household department in the southern province." Li Wan said softly.

Jia Heng nodded and asked, "Sister-in-law Zhu hasn't been to Jinling or Guining for a few years, right?"

Li Wan looked at the young man with a clear face and said in a low voice: "Since my husband passed away, I have never left the capital. Firstly, the journey is long and the road is not stable. Secondly, Lan'er is still young and cannot go to Jinling. Granny And the old lady is not at ease."

In the end, his voice was low and his expression was gloomy.

Jia Heng was silent for a while, he originally asked casually, but he didn't want to touch Li Wan's sad things, but it seemed that he did this intentionally and took advantage of the situation.

"When Lange is older, my sister-in-law can take Lange back to have a look." Jia Heng said in a low voice.

Li Wan seemed to have been provoked into something sad, so he picked up the jug again, poured himself a glass, took a sip with a sad face, the wine fell into his throat, his brows were frowning, and his heart was bitter.

Jia Heng said: "Sister-in-law don't have to suffer, you should always think leniently about everything."

"Brother Lan has grown so big in no time. If he succeeds in his studies and career in Japan, I can be considered worthy of his father." Li Wan looked at the boy opposite, and suddenly said with emotion , and then went to carry the jug again, wanting to pour wine for Jia Heng.

But Jia Heng held the jug, looked at the young woman with flushed cheeks and beautiful eyes flowing under her beautiful eyebrows, and said in a low voice: "Sister-in-law Zhu, you can't drink like this, it's easy to hurt your body, eat some It's the food."

Li Wan raised his shining beautiful eyes, looked at the young man, and said in a low voice: "I don't usually drink a lot, so it's okay to have a few drinks like this with Brother Heng. I don't have many people here. .”

Jia Heng said softly, "It's not easy for Mrs. Zhu to be alone all these years."

As she said that, her expression froze, and she suddenly felt that this was really inappropriate. The widow seemed...to not be able to listen to this.

When Li Wan heard this, Yu Rong paused for a moment, as if struck by lightning, her heart trembled, she stared at him, and said in a low voice: "Brother Heng..."

It's really not easy these years, but who knows it's not easy for her?

Jia Heng was silent for a moment, and could only follow the words just now to comfort him: "The world is impermanent, sister-in-law still has to think about it, fortunately, Lan Geer is well-behaved and bright, and has a bright future in the future, and sister-in-law can usually return to Feng's house in the mansion. You can move around more, and don't stay in the room all the time, it's easy to feel depressed after being bored for a long time."

Li Wan listened to the young man's slightly "trivial" exhortations, a warm current surged in his heart, his eyes were in a trance, and his nose was slightly sour.

Suppressing the sour emotions in her heart, the beautiful Yurong showed a slight smile: "Lang Geer is more sensible. The day before yesterday, Brother Heng gave Lang Geer a set of pens, inks, papers and inkstones. When he came back, he told me that he Uncle Heng thinks highly of him, and he will study hard in the future to repay Uncle Heng."

Jia Heng smiled and said: "It's also Brother Lang who is motivated. I value him a little bit, not for any repayment. Our family started with martial arts. It's hard to get a seed of study, but we must protect it."

Li Wan listened, his heart moved slightly, and he wanted to ask, now Jia Cong is also the seed of reading... But after thinking about it, he also felt that it was inappropriate, and swallowed the words that came to his lips.

Looking at the gentle and jade-like young man, whose eyes were not as cold and stern as before, he was a little distracted by that smile, and said softly: "Brother Heng, it is not easy for you to come to this day. Back then in the wicker alley...Brother Heng was there at that time. Extraordinary."

I still remember that day when I entered the boy's room in front of me and saw that pair of couplets, who would have thought that I would have today?

Jia Heng said: "The children of the poor are already in charge of the family."

As he spoke, he picked up a piece of egg with his chopsticks and ate it.

Li Wan looked at the calm young man, and said softly, "Brother Heng, in a few days, are you planning to go to Yangzhou?"

"Well, maybe I have to go to Jinling again. If sister-in-law Zhu has letters or things to send, I can take them there." Jia Heng put down his chopsticks and smiled lightly.

Li Wan felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by that warm and smiling gaze, lowered his eyes slightly, picked up the wine cup, put his pink lips on the wine cup and took a sip, and said: "I want to write two letters, and I want to trouble Brother Heng to send them to you." past."

Jia Heng said softly: "The sister-in-law has finished writing, and I will send a maid to send it over tomorrow."

Li Wan let out a "hmm", sipped his drink, his beautiful eyes twinkled under his beautiful eyebrows, and he was speechless for a while.

Jia Heng chatted with Li Wan for a while, ate some food and wine, and said softly: "It's getting late, sister-in-law Zhu, how about doing this first today? Brother Lan's matter is settled like this, and sister-in-law Zhu also drank Some wine, just be careful later."

When eating with Li Wan, one has to be cautious. In fact, if Zhen Qing hadn't brought Zhen Xue in, he would not have been entangled with other people's wives before.

"Brother Heng, then I'll see you off." Perhaps because of drinking, Li Wanyu's cheeks were as red as blood, and she lightly pressed her pink lips, feeling a faint sense of reluctance in her heart, but she didn't know how to keep her.

Jia Heng said, put down the wine cup, got up, and prepared to leave.

When Li Wan got up, his eyes suddenly became dizzy, his body staggered, and just as he took a step, the young woman said "Ouch" and sat down on the chair again, tears almost came out of pain, and she didn't know where she touched .

Jia Heng turned to look at Li Wan who was frowning, and asked with a frown, "Sister-in-law, are you okay? Where did you meet?"

"It's okay, I touched my leg just now." Li Wan's face was as frosty, and her voice was trembling slightly.

Jia Heng approached, looked at the beautiful woman who frowned and endured the pain, and said softly: "Just now I told Sister Zhu to be more careful, why are you so careless?"

"I was a little dizzy just now, and I couldn't stand firmly for a while." Li Wan said, and immediately felt ashamed in his heart, why did Brother Heng seem to be scolding a child?However, there were some strange ripples in the heart lake.

Jia Heng said: "Sister-in-law Zhu hold on for a while, just sit down and rest."

As he spoke, Xu Xu supported Li Wan by one arm, made him sit down again, and called out: "Suyun, Biyue, come and see your grandma."

Suyun and Biyue hurriedly responded, the two trotted over from the verandah, entered the hall, seeing this scene, their faces paled, and they said in shock: "Grandma, what's going on?"

Jia Heng said: "Just now I touched the leg of the table, go and look for the medicinal wine for Dieda."

Li Wan quickly waved his hand and said, "Brother Heng, don't bother."

Suyun said: "There is no one in the mansion, I just went to ask Miss Ping."

Li Wanyu's face changed slightly, her heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly said: "Brother Heng, it's not too earth-shattering at this time, I'll just apply cold water to it later."

If Feng girl heard this, she might think about her.

Jia Heng looked at Li Wan, and said softly, "I have it in my study, let Suyun get it."

The bottle of medicinal wine was given to him by Xianning, thinking that the things in the palace are very effective, he said, looked at Suyun, and said: "Go to the study and ask Qingwen for it."

Seeing the busy young man, Li Wan was silent for a moment, and sat on the soft couch with Jia Heng's support, stretched out one hand and gently rubbed his calf, but after just rubbing twice, he felt ashamed in his heart .

Jia Heng did not sit side by side on the couch, but sat on the embroidered pier. Looking at Li Wan, who had flushed cheeks and dense sweat on his forehead, he hesitated, took out a handkerchief from the armhole, and handed it over. Said: "Sister Zhu, wipe the sweat off your face."

Li Wan was stunned for a moment. Under the young man's kind eyes, he reached out to take the handkerchief. He didn't know if it was because of his drunkenness, but felt his cheeks were slightly hot. He gently wiped the sweat from his forehead and cheeks, and said in a low voice: "Thank you Brother Heng."

Jia Heng said: "Sister-in-law Zhu is being polite."

He found a chair and sat down, looked at Li Wan who was silent with downcast eyes, and pondered: "Sister-in-law Zhu, if you have anything to do with Brother Lang, you don't have to be polite, just tell me, you don't need to talk about it every day." It’s not easy for Sister-in-Law Zhu to set up the table just now.”

Although Li Wan's monthly bill is more than Tanchun and the others, the expenses are not small.

Hearing this, Li Wan looked worriedly at the young man opposite, and asked, "Brother Heng, did you neglect just now?"

Jia Heng smiled and said: "It's not negligence, but I just thought that Mrs. Zhu's widow is unemployed, and it's not easy to drag Lang Geer. It doesn't need to cost too much. The pot of wine just now seems to be the best wine in the outside world. I'm afraid it's not cheap, the whole family doesn't need to see outsiders like this."

The jug of wine just now looked like good wine, and it was obviously worried that he would treat him slowly.

Hearing this, Li Wan's elegant and elegant face froze slightly, with mixed emotions in her heart, she lowered her eyes to meet the young man's warm gaze, and wanted to rub her calf through the skirt, but felt that this action was really indecent, low Said: "Brother Heng's words, I wrote it down."

After a while, while the two were talking, Suyun came back from the outside, holding medicinal wine.

"If it is swollen, pour a drop of this medicine wine on the palm, scrub it, and then apply it on the leg, and the swelling will go away. Suyun wait for you to serve your grandma later." Jia Heng explained, he naturally It was impossible to serve medicinal wine to Li Wan.

Li Wan listened to the soft words of the young man across from him, and said softly: "Thank you Brother Heng."

Jia Heng looked at the originally quiet and dignified young woman, she almost turned into a dull gourd, but she didn't want to stay any longer, and said: "Then sister-in-law Zhu, do this first, sister-in-law Zhu will also take medicine, and rest earlier."

Seeing this, Li Wan got up and said, "Then I'll send Brother Heng off."

"Sister-in-law's leg still hurts, so there's no need to give it away." Jia Heng said softly.

Li Wan could only say: "Biyue, send it off for me."

Bi Yue got up and sent Jia Heng off.

Li Wan turned to stare at the bottle of medicinal wine, twisted the handkerchief in his hand, looked around at the room that had once again fallen into deathly silence, loneliness and pain in his legs both hit his heart, and felt a deep exhaustion, silently After a moment, he finally let out a sigh.

……

……

Chu Palace

As soon as Zhen Qing returned to the mansion, she ordered the mother-in-law and maidservants to prepare hot water for bathing. It was summer, the weather was hot, and she was sweating inside and out, feeling uncomfortable.

In the bathtub, the millstone entered the water, splashing water, Zhen Qing clasped her shoulders with her hands interlaced, stretched out her slender hands, and the bath water with rose petals fell down her neck, feeling strange, her eyebrows frowned , with evil eyes in her beautiful eyes, she kept cursing a certain bastard in her heart.

Zhen Qing didn't dare to think too much, she got up from the bathtub, changed into a red dress, and called the maid to help her make up, and then lay on her side on the bed, caressing her lower abdomen, recovering her strength a bit, just now she closed her eyes, It seemed that the bastard's irritating words were faintly ringing in his ears.

Suddenly, I heard the nanny outside, saying softly: "Princess, the prince is back."

Zhen Qing got up when she heard the words, and looked up at the King of Chu who came from outside.

The King of Chu was wearing a Shu brocade round-neck gown, a blue square scarf on his head, and a green finger in his hand. He sat down on the round table, looked at the beautiful jade man opposite him, and asked expectantly, "Princess, did you go to Ningguo today?" House? What did Jia Ziyu say?"

Zhen Qing looked at the King of Chu, she didn't know why, she couldn't help feeling a little annoyed, she went to the Ningguo Mansion, and was played by someone, now the prince asked her about these things at the first time?

But the beauty at this moment has never thought about how the King of Chu knew what happened to her in Ningguo Mansion?

"Jia Ziyu didn't say anything else. He just said that the lord is devoted to state affairs. At that time, since he is serving the side affairs, even if he asks others to help with suggestions, he will not object." Zhen Qing suppressed the irritability in her heart and said in a low voice. .

The King of Chu nodded and looked at Zhen Qing. He didn't know if it was the lights, but he found that his wife's brows and eyes were a little more charming than before, especially those sharp phoenix eyes, which were full of water and mist. born.

As for the face that looks like a hibiscus flower stamen, it is even more charming, and the pink lips that look like rose petals are slightly shiny, and the king of Chu couldn't help but move, and said in a low voice: "Princess, it's getting late, let's go early too." Sleep well?"

Zhen Qingxiu frowned, and said softly: "My lord, I'm not feeling well today, I'm afraid I won't be able to serve my lord."

Seeing Zhen Qing's brows furrowed, and the fierce look in her phoenix eyes reappearing, the King of Chu's face paused, and he felt that the slightest thought just now had dissipated.

In fact, there are also some who don't want to be with the concubine. Compared with Concubine Liu's little bird and soft voice, the concubine seems...to put it harshly, like a corpse.

In fact, Zhen Qing's temperament is conservative, and she also uses the appearance of the queen's mother to respect the world to demand herself. It is impossible to seduce her husband like a foxy girl, and she will be looked down upon by the king of Chu.

Catching a trace of lightness in her husband's eyebrows, Zhen Qing's clear phoenix eyes under the willow-leaf eyebrows flickered, and her heart was inexplicably agitated.

After watching the King of Chu leave, the teacup in his hand couldn't bear it any longer, and hit the ground hard, with a "click", and hot water splashed everywhere. The female officer who originally wanted to come in was frightened Keep silent like a cicada, and stand with your hands down.

Under the illumination of the lights, Zhen Qing's gorgeous, almost seductive face was covered with frost, her eyes had a cold light, her slender hands were clenched into pink fists, and she secretly hated, after all, she blamed that bastard!

Beijing Palace

Zhen Xue was also bathing in the bathtub, gently stroking her snow-white and soft shoulders, staring at the candle flames flickering with the wind in the summer night, dazed.

Those soft words with red cheeks still ringing in my ears, making people's heart skip a beat, while bursts of warm and intimate breaths are still breathing on the cheeks, and the memories of scenes are full of body and mind, and finally freeze in a picture with a slight expression. On the cold face.

The young woman in Huaxin frowned, her beautiful eyes were absent-minded, she glanced around, but she was attracted by a bejeweled light, and looked at the ring on her hand.

Confused, in the clattering sound, she stretched out her hand to gently scrub her body, while the earlobe beside her earlobe was shaking slightly, like a beautiful woman's entangled and swaying heart.

At this moment, the voice of the female official came from the courtyard, "Toffee."

"Where's the princess?" Dowager Bei Jing's voice came one after another, clearly showing a bit of impatience.

"Princess is still taking a bath." The female officer's soft voice was full of respect.

Zhen Xue was startled when she heard this, she didn't dare to be negligent, she hurriedly washed it, and after a while, she came out of the bathtub, took a towel beside her, and quickly scrubbed her wet body inside and out, and then called the female officer to come and serve her Dress yourself.

After a while, Zhen Xue changed into a light red dress and went out of the wing room, only to see Dowager Bei Jing sitting on a pear wood chair in the front hall, holding a teacup, drinking tea without saying a word.

"Mother-in-law." Zhen Xue called out.

"Why did it take you so long to come out? Where's Xin'er?" Princess Bei Jing put down the teacup with a "da" and looked at Princess Bei Jing opposite, with a hint of coldness in her sharp eyes.

Rong'er is not at home, and the one who dresses up beautifully every day, is just a vixen!If Rong'er hadn't been fascinated by this vixen, how could it have been so long without a single person in the room?

"Xinxin stayed in Ningguo Mansion." Zhen Xue said in a low voice.

Concubine Bei Jing said coldly: "She is a child, you can rest assured to keep her in Ningguo Mansion, how did you become a mother?"

"Today I'm recognizing my god-in-law, and according to the etiquette, I should stay in Ningguo Mansion for one night." Zhen Xue said softly.

"Girlfriend?" Princess Bei Jing frowned, and asked, "Why don't I know? Who do you know?"

Zhen Xue said: "It's Uncle Yongning's wife, the Qin family. The prince said earlier that the Zhen and Jia families were friends for generations, and they should get closer. In addition, the Qin family liked Xin Xin, so she let Xin Xin recognize her as a godmother. , Yongningbo also agreed."

Concubine Beijing heard the words and said: "Jia's family? I heard from Concubine Nan'an that this Yongning Bo doesn't usually show off the face of us old relatives, his eyes are higher than the top, and he is so arrogant?"

"I don't know about this." Zhen Xue shook her head lightly, and suppressed the words of defense that were on her lips.

Concubine Bei Jing snorted coldly, her complexion frosted, and said: "That sister of yours has a lot of eyes, you should not mess with her, and take care of your daughter at home when you have time, don't run away every day."

"Yes." Zhen Xue answered nonchalantly, not daring to answer back.

When Concubine Bei Jing left, Zhen Xue sighed quietly, returned to the wing room, and lay down gently. At this moment, the dusk was falling, and the beauty only felt a wave of tiredness, and she fell into a deep sleep within a short while.
