"What do you need the token for? If you want to leave the palace, I can just take you out." Xie Jingrun frowned.
Rong Qingqing complained, "That's so inconvenient. What if he angers me one day? Wouldn't I be unable to leave the palace?"
That would be far too passive.
Moreover, she was going to visit Chunyan Tower tonight. Without a token, how could she leave the palace and have fun?
“You’re so busy with official duties, how could you possibly have time to go out of the palace with me? Besides, I can’t be so inconsiderate as to bother you all the time, can I?” Rong Qingqing said, picking up her chopsticks, taking a piece of meat, and stuffing it into his mouth, her attitude very attentive.
Xie Jingrun finally managed to eat the meat she stuffed into his mouth, and just as he was about to speak, she shoved another mouthful of rice into his mouth.
"So you can just give me the token directly, it'll save you some trouble." After feeding him a bite of rice, Rong Qingqing picked up a piece of vegetables with her chopsticks and fed it to him.
Xie Jingrun: "..."
When she tried to feed him more food, Xie Jingrun quickly stopped her, saying, "I can eat by myself."
Rong Qingqing avoided his hand and insisted on feeding him the food.
"Am I good to you?" she asked with a smile.
Xie Jingrun swallowed the food in his mouth and nodded, "Okay."
Rong Qingqing opened her palm in front of him, "Then reward me."
Xie Jingrun stared at her for a while, then suddenly leaned over and kissed her on the forehead. "Alright, I've finished eating. I need to continue reviewing memorials. You can go back now."
Rong Qingqing: "..."
"What's wrong? Is there anything else?" Xie Jingrun asked, seeing her staring blankly at him, as he placed his hand on her shoulder.
Rong Qingqing swallowed hard, and asked unwillingly, "Where's the token?"
Xie Jingrun paused for a moment, then said, "If you want to leave the palace, I'll accompany you. You don't need a token."
Rong Qingqing pursed her lips and glanced at him, then suddenly got off his lap, sighed, and said with a melancholy expression, "You don't love me at all. Forget it, I'll go back." After saying that, she turned to leave, but Xie Jingrun grabbed her.
He rubbed his temples and said helplessly, "It's just a token, can't I just give it to you?"
Rong Qingqing bit her lip and looked at him.
Xie Jingrun glanced at her, took out a token from his pocket, and handed it to her.
"From now on, no one will dare to stop you from entering or leaving the palace."
The pure gold token, still warm from his body, was held in Rong Qingqing's hand. She suppressed the urge to smile, stood on tiptoe, and kissed him on the corner of his mouth.
"Thank you, I will keep it safe."
Xie Jingrun took the opportunity to put his arm around her waist and kissed her for a while before letting go.
"Then you should focus on your official duties. I won't bother you anymore," Rong Qingqing said breathlessly, and then ran away quickly.
Watching her run away, Xie Jingrun touched the corner of his lips, his eyes filled with doting affection.
After obtaining the token, Rong Qingqing returned to Yuxian Palace, changed into men's clothing, and then, with Xiao Tao in tow, prepared to sneak out of the palace.
However, as soon as she left Yu Xian Palace, she bumped into Feng Xin.
It was too late to hide now, because Feng Xin had already seen her.
"Sister-in-law, where are you going dressed as men?" Feng Xin stepped forward and curiously examined her men's clothing.
Rong Qingqing said vaguely, "It's nothing, I was just wearing it for fun."
"Oh, then let's go for a walk in the Imperial Garden together," Feng Xin suggested.
"I just came back from the Imperial Garden, you can go by yourself." Rong Qingqing smiled and then tried to return to Yuxian Palace.
Feng Xin suddenly said, "Sister-in-law, does the Emperor know that you are dressed as a man? Otherwise, I'll go to the Imperial Study right now and tell him?"
