"Qian'er, how are things between you and Miss Shi now?"

At the dinner table, Princess Yan tentatively asked her son a question.

They had been back in the capital for more than half a year. The new emperor was magnanimous and made his son a government official in the capital, and also allowed the old prince to return to the capital.

For the elderly couple, it was a joyous occasion to return to their roots, but their son's relationship with Miss Shi was progressing slowly, which worried them.

I asked my son before, and he said that Miss Shi is very outstanding, and he also wants to improve himself more before finding a wife.

It's a good thing that her son is ambitious. Since ancient times, it has been the man who supports the woman in marriage, so that the marriage can last. But at present, the Prince of Yan's mansion is not coming home in time, so the Princess of Yan did not urge him anymore and thought to follow her son's pace.

But today she heard that Miss Shi was going to the island with the Regent and his wife, and who knows when she will be able to return.

Princess Yan was worried that her chosen daughter-in-law would leave, so she had no choice but to ask her son again.

He then added, "You know that Miss Shi is leaving, right?"

Shi Wuxia had no time to stay before because Ye Zhen was going back to the Great Wei to recognize her relatives, and she was afraid that Empress Zheng would target the Charity Hall. So Shi Wuxia chose to stay and help her sister take care of it.

After Ye Zhen's marriage, the Charity Hall returned to her hands and was managed by palace ladies-in-waiting, leaving her with no time to relax.

At first, I thought this kind of life was pretty good. Not only could I spend time with my godparents, but when I was bored, I could also tease Xie Qian.

Xie Qian was a proper and upright gentleman, but he blushed too easily, which Shi Wuxia found quite amusing.

But she was a restless person, and after a while, she started to feel bored. Xie Qian wasn't proactive enough either. When she learned that her godparents were going back to live on the island, she decided to go with them.

There are many things to do in the reconstruction of the island, and she is eager to try.

Xie Qian naturally knew she was leaving, "Miss Shi has already spoken to her son."

That was all.

Princess Yan grew anxious, "Did she say when she would be back?"

Xie Qian shook his head.

"You didn't ask?"

"With the Empress here, the Regent and General Ye will return, and Miss Shi, being their daughter, will also return."

Xie Qian thought that he didn't want to confine Shi Wuxia, who had such a free-spirited nature.

If she wants to stay on the island a little longer, he can visit her when he has time.

Princess Yan saw right through his thoughts and said with exasperation, "What if she doesn't come back and goes straight back to Great Wei? Great Wei is the home she grew up in."

I've heard that the Emperor and Empress of Great Wei treat her exceptionally well. Since Miss Shi is still unmarried at her age, what if her elders arrange a marriage for her?

She had always been proud of her son, thinking he was good in every way, but only today did she realize how dense and insensible he was.

Good women are always pursued actively; if you're too slow, they'll end up belonging to someone else.

Xie Qian had never thought about this question.

He could tell that Shi Wuxia liked him, and she had even said she wanted to marry him.

He thought their relationship was settled.

But clearly, the Princess Consort of Yan didn't think so, and she once again tried to brainwash her son about the sense of crisis.

After hearing it so many times, Xie Qian started to panic and wished he could go find Shi Wuxia that very night.

However, he was somewhat old-fashioned and felt that going to a girl's house at night was presumptuous and disrespectful, so he thought he would wait until after the morning court session the next day.

Unexpectedly, when they went to the General's Mansion the next day, they learned that Shi Wuxia had left with Shi Yan and the others the night before.

Shi Yan used teleportation, and in one night he was a thousand miles away.

Xie Qian couldn't catch up even if he wanted to.

When Princess Yan found out, she was furious and didn't even want to eat with her son that day.

Meanwhile, Shi Wuxia was leisurely eating seafood by the sea. Ye Jinghong looked at her, somewhat puzzled, "Wuxia, aren't you in a hurry to get on your way?"

They had just finished dinner last night when Shi Wuxia suddenly urged them to set off. She thought there was some urgent matter on the island.

Unexpectedly, when the little girl arrived at the beach, she was in no hurry to board the boat.

Shi Wuxia peeled a large shrimp for her and said with a smile, "My daughter deliberately revealed the news of her impending departure from the capital to the Princess Consort of Yan."

Princess Yan loves her daughter and is eager for her to become her daughter-in-law as soon as possible, but Xie Qian is old-fashioned and always feels that I must achieve something before I am worthy of marrying him, so he has not taken any action yet.

"Once Princess Yan learns that I'm leaving, she'll definitely tell Xie Qian and threaten him. If we don't leave, there's a good chance Xie Qian will corner us in the mansion."

Although Ye Jinghong was a woman, she didn't really understand the complexities of love. She asked again, "You like him, so wouldn't it be nice if he came to your residence to see you off?"

"Godmother, you don't understand."

Shi Wuxia sat down next to her, a mischievous smile on his lips. "What is lost and then regained is the most precious. Since it was my daughter who took the initiative, Xie Qian thought that my daughter must be standing there waiting for him."

But achieving merit and promotion isn't so easy. His daughter is already twenty-five; if he wants to achieve anything, it will take at least several years. Wouldn't his daughter be an old maid by then?

What she wanted wasn't Xie Qian's farewell, but rather for Xie Qian to take the opportunity to understand his own feelings.

She also had to take this opportunity to think about whether she still had feelings for Xie Qian after leaving him. If not, then she would have to find someone else.

Similarly, if Xie Qian realizes that he doesn't necessarily have to marry her, then they are not destined to be together.

My great-grandmother once said that the best age for a woman to give birth is her current age.

She can't let a man who doesn't love her hold her back.

Ye Jinghong understood. "So, you need to let him know that he's not in a hurry to marry you, that there are plenty of other men who are eager to marry you, and that you don't have to do without him."

When he thinks he's about to lose you, and then suddenly realizes he still has a chance, that's when he'll truly value and cherish you.

Shi Wuxia nuzzled Ye Jinghong's neck with her head, "My godmother is so smart."

"You little rascal."
