Xiao Chen leaned against the table and slumped into a chair, his gaze unfocused as he stared at the ceiling, a longing smile playing on his lips. "It'll be soon, Nan Nan. Just wait a little longer, we'll be able to meet soon."
Ye Jian silently closed his eyes.
——
The following day, at the Prince Anzheng's Palace in the Eastern Mausoleum.
Nanqianyue, dressed neatly with the help of a group of maids and servants, moved south.
Now that she is a princess, her clothing has been upgraded several notches, and even her hairstyle has become more elaborate.
She spread her arms and twirled in front of the bronze mirror, her begonia-colored sleeves fluttering like butterflies, and a proud smile curved her lips.
"The princess is so beautiful." Zisu clasped her hands together, tapping her fingers together.
At this moment, the indoor light dimmed a bit because a tall figure stood in the doorway, blocking a large portion of the light.
Nanqianyue turned around and extended a pale white hand towards him.
Qin Yi raised an eyebrow, walked over with a smile, took her hand, and kissed it. "Your beauty makes me feel ashamed of myself."
Nan Qianyue's appraising gaze swept over him from head to toe, and she said teasingly, "It's alright, you have a good figure."

"This is my wedding gift to you, along with some jewelry. Please take it with you when you leave."
The woman, who had just moved south, curtsied slightly and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty the Empress Dowager."
Empress Dowager Wei then turned her gaze to Qin Yi, "I will not keep you for a meal. Child, go and see your mother."
Qin Yi lowered his eyelids, and although one could not see the emotions in his eyes, it was obvious to anyone with eyes that he was displeased.
Empress Dowager Wei gently shook her head and gave Nan Qianyue a look.
Nanqianyue instantly understood, nodded, and walked towards Qin Yi.
She took Qin Yi's hand and bid farewell to Empress Dowager Wei, saying, "Then Your Highness and I will take our leave."
Empress Dowager Wei waved her hand warmly, "Go then."
