Jiang Zixi thought for a long time before finally asking her servant to bring her bamboo hat.

…

On the other side, Wan Ge also heard the guards return to report that Yin Qingxiu had safely returned home, and the madam had even found him another way to make a living.

After finishing the puzzle, Wan Ge felt it was a good idea. Originally, she was thinking of getting the male lead out of the brothel first, and then having someone arrange a job for him. However, since someone had already done it, she no longer needed to help.

The madam was a pretty good person; she really took good care of Yin Qingxiu and never forced him to do anything he didn't want to do throughout the entire story. Her brothel was full of unfortunate people.

It's just a pity...

Wan Ge sighed. In the original story, Rong Wanqing secretly assassinated everyone in the brothel who knew about Yin Qingxiu's identity to prevent anyone from revealing it.

Of course, Yin Qingxiu knew nothing about this matter from beginning to end.

He had no idea that the madam who had helped him in his most desperate moment would get him killed because of him.

He didn't know that in their dire straits, he had helped his brothers time and time again, because none of them had survived.

Wan Ge took another deep breath. If Yin Qingxiu knew, he would hate Rong Wanqing and probably wouldn't stay with her anymore, right?

Perhaps at some time, Wan Ge could try to probe the matter.

…

"Your Highness, someone is looking for you at the back door." The steward hurried over and stood in front of Wan Ge, speaking softly.

Wan Ge looked puzzled, wondering who would come looking for her at this time.

To be honest, even at other times, very few people come to see her.

Even though Rong Wanqing always wanted to act in the name of virtue, the common people were unaware of what she had done, but how could the officials not know?

No one dared to get close to her, so she received very few invitations to visit. Unless there was an emergency, no one would approach her.

Of course, she was no longer given important responsibilities, so there was no talk of any emergency.

But seeing the housekeeper's mysterious and amused expression, Wan Ge still went to the back door out of curiosity.

But as soon as I opened the door, I was suddenly embraced tightly.

Wan Ge looked completely bewildered and lifted the straw hat off the boy in front of her.

But then they saw the boy under the straw hat, his delicate face filled with grievance, his eyes slightly red: "Are you going to marry someone else?"

If she weren't familiar with him and could recognize him at a glance without even looking at his face, Wange would definitely be very confused.

But knowing this, she wouldn't find it strange, though she still looked at Jiang Zixi with a surprised expression: "Young Master of the Prime Minister's Residence? How did you know I was here?"

Jiang Zixi bit her lip, her aggrieved expression becoming even more pronounced: "I'm your fiancé, how could I not know you were here?"

"Fiancé? If I remember correctly, the young master and I broke off our engagement a long time ago." He wasn't even of marriageable age when the engagement was broken off, but now he's old enough to get married.

"Don't you want me anymore?" One crystal tear after another fell.

"Don't cry. I'm not abandoning you, but do you know how dangerous it would be for you to be with me, given your identity?" Wan Ge felt sorry for him when she saw him crying. She didn't want him to cry about this. He would have plenty of time to cry in the future, so she should save her tears for now.

Jiang Zixi hugged her tightly: "I'm not afraid. As long as I can be with you, I'm not afraid of anything."
