I thought the matter was settled, but unexpectedly, another piece of bad news came the next day.
There is solid evidence that Xie Xiangli colluded with the Queen, and he will be charged with treason!
The imperial guards came directly to arrest people and put them in jail on the spot. The master was almost devastated.
Out of respect for the Xie family, the prince spared the death penalty and only sentenced him to exile three thousand miles away.
"That's good. Husband and wife being exiled together can support each other." Xie Xianyu glanced at the memorial sent by the prince and put it back on the table.
"Zhu Jia may not be willing. After all, it's just an engagement. It's not impossible to regret it."
"Breaking off the engagement? She can afford to lose face like that, but even the Ding'an Marquisate can't. Now that the scandal has spread, the marriage has to be broken off no matter what. Moreover, if she breaks off the engagement and runs away just because her husband has committed a crime, what kind of person is she to the Ding'an Marquisate?"
Wan Ruo was stunned for a moment, then suddenly asked, "You planned this, didn't you?"
He snorted lightly: "Why would I have such a free husband to take care of these rubbish?"
As he was speaking, Qing'an came in hurriedly: "Zizi, Lord Su is here."
Wanruo's eyebrows twitched and she looked at Xie Xianyu guiltily.
Xie Xianyu stood up and said, "Tell him to wait for me in the study."
"yes."
Su Yan was waiting in the study in the waterside pavilion. When Xie Xianyu came in, he stood up to greet him.
"What do you want to see me for?"
Su Yan's face looked a little haggard, but his eyes were very clear: "I want to be sent to Yangzhou."
Xie Xianyu raised his eyebrows slightly, but was not very surprised.
"The situation in the capital is now settled, and there's no need for me to guard it. It would be better to go to Yangzhou..."
Start over.
"The Yangzhou prefect is about to retire. In that case, I'll help you arrange it. You can take over."
Su Yan pursed his lips tightly, his expression solemn: "Thank you."
Xie Xianyu looked at him: "Have you thought it through?"
"Of course I've thought about it." Su Yan curled the corners of his lips, "I can't let her go in this life anyway."
He suddenly shook his head and said, "I figured it out too late. If it had been earlier, I wouldn't have made her suffer so much. I loved her, and I can't repay her in this lifetime. If there is an afterlife, I just want her to live a happier life."
Xie Xianyu's eyes flickered slightly, and he patted his shoulder: "Just make up your mind."
After Su Yan left, Xie Xianyu returned to the dormitory, and Wanruo hurriedly asked him what was wrong.
"A little thing."
Of course, he would not tell her a word before Su Yan arrived in Yangzhou, otherwise Su Yan would be furious if Chen Qinghan ran away again.
Wan Ruo frowned: "Are you just trying to fool me?"
He imitated her and looked at her in ignorance: "How could I have that?"
“…”
Wanruo gnashed her teeth in anger, what a stingy guy who holds a grudge!
He held her hand and suddenly said, "Wanwan."
"What's wrong?" She shook off his hand, but failed.
He held her tighter and looked down at her: "If there is a next life, I want to treat you better."
He didn't want her to be displaced, live under someone else's roof, or risk her life to escape. He didn't want her to suffer any hardship. He wanted her to grow up freely and unrestrainedly and marry him with joy.
She bumped into his lacquered eyes, her heart trembled, and her ears suddenly felt hot.
How come this guy suddenly became so talkative?
She put her arms around his waist, leaned against his chest, and said in a muffled voice, "It's fine now."
The corners of his lips curled up slightly, and he bent down and hugged her tightly.
That night, Wanruo had already gone to bed.
Xie Xianyu suddenly opened his eyes. He remembered something he forgot to ask her.
He stared at her sleeping face, hesitated for a long time, and finally couldn't bear it anymore and rubbed her face: "Wanwan."
She frowned and slapped his hand away: "What's wrong again."
"If there is an afterlife, will you still love me?"
"Yes." She didn't even open her eyes.
"Only me?"
She buried her face in the quilt: "I only love you."
He was finally satisfied. He took her in his arms and kissed her forehead.
