Jiang Wang turned around, took a step, his steps hesitant, wanting to turn back, but ultimately he held back.

Shen Mingzhuang followed him and quietly returned to the Hehuan Palace.

The Empress Dowager had already returned. Liu Wenxin was sitting in the hall, feeling agitated. When she saw the two of them return, her eyes lit up.

She rose to greet him, personally removing the cloak from the Emperor's body and handing it to Tan'er, who was serving him.

"Your Majesty, the tea is at the perfect temperature; it's Biluochun, which is Your Majesty's favorite."

Jiang Wang didn't say a word, took the teacup and drank it all in one gulp.

Liu Wenxin glanced at Shen Mingzhuang, who was following behind somewhat absentmindedly, and covered her mouth to laugh, "Back when I was still serving Your Highness, Your Highness was always like this, often daydreaming."

Jiang Wang held an empty teacup in his hand and glanced at Shen Mingzhuang behind him when he heard this, "When will you leave the palace?"

Shen Mingzhuang didn't speak for a moment, then said, "Let's do it now."

She doesn't like it here either, so why should she stay?

As Jiang Wang listened, the coldness in his eyes intensified. He said nothing and sat down in the main seat.

Liu Wenxin poured Jiang Wang another cup of tea. This time, her hand suddenly trembled, and the tea spilled onto Jiang Wang's dragon robe. Jiang Wang lowered his eyes, his eyes filled with murderous intent, but Liu Wenxin did not see it. She hurriedly reached out to help him wipe the water away, saying, "Your Majesty, let me help you change your clothes."

Jiang Wang got up and went to the inner room, but his steps were very heavy. Liu Wenxin followed beside him like a little bird. After taking two steps, she suddenly stumbled. Jiang Wang instinctively caught her and was about to push her away when Liu Wenxin let out an ambiguous soft cry and then giggled, "Your Majesty!"

Just as Jiang Wang was about to push her out, she grabbed Jiang Wang's neck and turned to Shen Mingzhuang, saying, "Your Majesty may not be able to return after leaving the palace. There are still some things in Hehuan Palace. Your Majesty should not forget to take them with you."
