Whether it was due to the influence of his will or not, Xie Rang recovered even faster than the system had anticipated.
Despite his illness, Xie Rang seemed to be in better spirits than before.
Yun Qing had a vague guess: "Perhaps because they have broken free from their original fate, the last shackle no longer exists."
“It should be.” Xie Rang leaned closer to her and whispered, “Aqing, I also had a dream.”
Yun Qing looked up in surprise.
Xie Rang's voice was calm, as if he were truly recounting a dream: "In my dream, I met a girl from another world. She accompanied me as I grew up, but I left too soon and don't know if she ever returned."
Yun Qing never expected that after surviving the ordeal, Xie Rang would unexpectedly awaken some memories. Previously, she felt that some details were painful, so she glossed over them and did not tell him about them in detail. Now, however, he knows everything.
Yun Qing pursed her lips: "She went back."
In truth, both of them have had rather tragic experiences. Xie Rang is neglected by her father and unloved by her mother here, and when she returns, she faces the devastating news of the deaths of both her parents. In terms of family ties, there is always a certain lack of connection.
Fortunately, they were not alone in the end.
Yun Qing pulled herself out of her thoughts and smiled, "She went back and learned a lot of useful knowledge, waiting to use it someday in the future."
The story begins with a mistake at work on 1130, which caused her soul to accidentally fall into this time and space. Later, the two spaces intersected, and the effects of this situation are not so easily eliminated.
At the time, a new mission to modify the world line was launched, and 1130 reported her name, waiting for the right time to bring her back many years later.
Yun Qing suddenly remembered: "What about those odd places?"
She realized she hadn't done it, and recalling what Xie Rang had said before, she felt the truth was about to be revealed.
"The Grand Tutor guessed correctly; it was I who removed it."
Xie Rang laughed and looked at Yun Qing: "That was my original destiny. If I had grown up alone, I wouldn't have had so much compassion. The common people and the world would have been dispensable to me... I was destined to be a tyrant."
Being in the royal family, especially for an emperor who has risen through the ranks from the cold palace, it would be abnormal if he didn't have some dark side.
But……
"If we want to gain even the slightest chance, we must continue down the original path."
The historians naturally recorded the facts, but after erasing his achievements, later generations didn't understand them very well. It's been too long, so a vague record is enough.
Yun Qing chuckled: "Someone told you?"
Xie Rang: "A sorcerer."
This method is all too familiar. Yun Qing remembered the wandering sorcerer who told her parents that she had left home. Now it seems that he was also someone sent by the system.
And Xie Rang actually believed it.
"I'm so glad I believed it back then, otherwise we might have missed our chance."
Xie Rang smiled and pinched her earlobe: "I just didn't expect that the Grand Tutor would care about me so much."
Yun Qing glanced at him: "So you're not jealous now?"
She was clearly thinking about the unreasonable things Xie Rang had said during her pregnancy.
Xie Rang: ...
He cautiously reached out to put his arm around Yun Qing's waist, but she gracefully avoided him, her eyes fixed on him with the same expression Tao Kan had in them.
"Xie Qi'an, reflect on your actions."
After saying that, Yun Qing turned and left without looking back, intending to check on how Xiao Ciying's New Year's clothes were coming along.
Xie Rang lowered his hands and sighed softly.
...
The following day, they attended the banquet together.
Seeing that the emperor was in good spirits, the ministers were finally relieved.
His Majesty's illness came on suddenly and violently. They had heard some rumors about it in the court, and with the Imperial Tutor overseeing the country recently, they were afraid that something unexpected might happen. Fortunately, it seems that there are no problems now.
Once it was confirmed that Xie Rang was alright, many ministers quickly turned their attention to Xie Ciying. These days, they had seen how well-behaved and composed the little princess was sitting on the dragon throne. She truly lived up to her reputation as the little princess who held the imperial seal in one hand and the red-tasseled spear in the other!
Xie Ciying sat alone in the seat that Yun Qing used to sit in, very close to the head of the table. In formal occasions, she wasn't very clingy to her parents, and since she was surrounded by familiar people, Yun Qing wasn't worried about her. After glancing at her, he looked away.
The courtiers of Da Xi were already used to Lord Li and His Majesty attending together like this. The only ones who were truly shocked were the envoys from the smaller countries. Whether they were well-informed or not, they were all unanimously shocked to see this scene.
However, Xie Rang's appearance put an end to some people's private schemes, and everyone sat obediently in their seats.
Yun Qing saw an acquaintance once again.
Princess Yiguang was surprised for a moment when she saw her, but then she smiled and greeted her.
Although there were some unpleasant moments between them when they first met, so many years have passed and they still collaborate privately, so these things are no longer important.
Yun Qing nodded slightly to her.
"I've heard that Loulan is now under Princess Yiguang's control."
Xie Rang remarked from the side.
Yun Qing laughed: "Your intelligence network is quite extensive."
Xie Rang: "I only noticed that the Grand Tutor was interested."
The two were whispering to each other, their affection evident. The envoys looked around again and again, and immediately gave up any idea of sending someone to the Emperor of Da Xi's harem.
