"Did you see it clearly?" A man asked lightly in a very low voice.

Chu Ningyang sat down at the table. "I see clearly now. The world is so fickle. They are all on the side of this Crown Princess. I, a princess, have become the target of their collective attack!"

"Now that you've seen through these people, remember them. Don't let any of them go, including the one you hate the most!"

The man sat on the chair, his voice was cold, but with a kind of magnetism, which made people inexplicably feel that this person must have a very attractive appearance.

"Isn't what I hate the most what you hate the most?" Chu Ningyang asked back.

The man slammed the wine glass in his hand heavily on the table. He must take revenge!

Jing Yuchen knew that Ni Yueshan had gone to the poetry gathering, so he asked curiously, "Is there anything at the banquet worth telling this prince?"

Ni Yueshan rolled her eyes at Jing Yuchen and said, "No!"

Then she slouched in the chair and closed her eyes.

Jing Yuchen looked at Ni Yueshan with some surprise, as if Ni Yueshan couldn't muster up any energy at all?

"Chu Ningyang doesn't have any conspiracy?" Jing Yuchen looked at Ni Yueshan in surprise.

Ni Yueshan opened her eyes and nodded. "Yes, I didn't find any conspiracy, but she seems to be very good at writing poetry now. Logically, she has been living in low self-esteem for a long time, so how could she be in the mood to learn poetry?"

"You mean she cheated to get back into the public eye?"

"Almost! But I have no evidence!" Ni Yueshan responded lightly, and found himself a little sleepy.

"You go ahead and do your work. Don't wait for me at night. I'm going to bed."

Jing Yuchen wanted to say something, but Ni Yueshan left quickly.

The next day, Ni Yueshan got up early and went to visit Miao Yuan's grave. Because it was a new grave and it was the Ni family's cemetery, there were people guarding it, so no matter if there was grass or bird droppings, they were all cleaned up.

Ni Yueshan knelt down in front of the grave and kowtowed to Miao Yuan: "Mother, although I was forced to reveal my identity, I can now be your daughter openly. I have also visited my father during this period. He is alone now, and I feel very lonely."

"Mom, if I find someone to take my dad's place, will you be angry? If you are angry, please send me a dream and pretend that I didn't have this idea. However, the dead are gone, so please let my dad be happier!"

After lighting incense in front of Miao Yuan's grave, Ni Yueshan kowtowed several times and then stood up.

Qingdie said from the side: "Miss, if you really find a companion for the Prime Minister, I'm afraid that someone will dislike you when you return to your parents' home in the future, right?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? The person I chose naturally wouldn't treat me as an outsider! Let's go back now and go to the temple with the prince to burn incense!"

When Ni Yueshan rushed back to the Prince's Mansion, Jing Yuchen had indeed returned from court. Ni Yueshan was sitting in the carriage, too lazy to get off, and watched Jing Yuchen get on the carriage on his own.

Ni Yueshan propped his forehead with his hand and asked, "Which temple did you choose?"

"The temple where Shao Lecheng once took people in!"

Ni Yueshan lowered his gaze and continued to close his eyes, resting.

Jing Yuchen did not disturb Ni Yueshan. They both sat in the carriage with their eyes closed and rested.

Until the carriage was about to reach the temple, Jing Yuchen stretched lazily, shook Ni Yueshan and said, "We're here!"

Ni Yueshan opened his eyes, lifted the curtain and looked outside.

The temples that were once somewhat familiar to me now seem a bit strange.

Ni Yueshan got off the carriage and followed Jing Yuchen up the mountain.

The two did not reveal their identities and, like other pilgrims in the temple, burned incense, drew lots, and then knelt down to worship.

"This place makes people feel so peaceful. My husband, after the expansion of our Prince's Mansion, although the treasury has lost a lot of silver, your salary is still enough to support a large family. I want to donate all the profits from my jewelry store to the children adopted by Shao Lecheng. Do you agree?"

Jing Yuchen reached out and scratched Ni Yueshan's nose: "Why would I disagree?"

"We are husband and wife now, so our property is naturally shared. If I want to make a donation without asking you, that's definitely not possible!"

Jing Yuchen stroked his chin. Ni Yueshan was quite amused. "Okay, if you are willing to donate, then donate. This prince can even give you an additional donation!"

"My husband is so mighty!" Ni Yueshan shook Jing Yuchen's arm, her face full of admiration.

The cold and decisive woman became less and less sharp.

After the two of them finished their worship, they had no intention of staying any longer and were ready to rush back to the Prince's Mansion before dark.

There were still many other pilgrims on the way down the mountain, but as the road got closer and closer to the imperial city, the population became sparse and the sky gradually darkened, making people realize the urgency of time.

The carriage suddenly stopped at this moment.

Jing Yuchen, who was sitting in the carriage, asked curiously, "What happened? Why did it stop?"

"Prince, there is a person lying far ahead..."

After hearing this, Ni Yueshan and Jing Yuchen both lifted the curtain and looked outside.

Jing Yuchen got off the carriage, obviously going to see what was going on. Ni Yueshan warned him, "Be careful. It's dark now, and there are strangers lying on the road. It's very dangerous."

Jing Yuchen knew that he had to be alert. He approached the person on the ground and asked, "I wonder why this old man is lying here?"

There was no response from the ground. Obviously, the person was unconscious.

The driver, Qingfeng, immediately got off the carriage and approached: "Subordinate, come down!"

He reached out and pushed the old man on the ground. The old man lay down, but his eyes were still closed and he did not respond.
