Heaven has indeed been kind to me!
Helian Jue was not a believer in metaphysics.
He was well-versed in Confucian classics and naturally understood the profound saying, "The Master did not speak of strange phenomena, physical prowess, disorder, or spirits."
He also doesn't believe in any kind of secret retribution.
Aren't there enough wronged souls in the palace?
But which one became a vengeful ghost, seeking revenge on its enemy?
It's all just a bunch of lies and deception.
But at this moment, he couldn't help but think more.
Just when I was about to start digging through Yuling, the ridge, which had taken more than half a year to complete, was actually dug through.
It just so happens that this occurred at a crucial moment when turmoil was brewing in the capital.
Helian Jue didn't believe there wasn't an element of "luck" involved.
"Let's go! Let's go take a look!"
Suppressing his excitement, Helian Jue smiled and said to Xie Yuan.
"Um!"
Xie Yuan nodded, and after completing her postpartum confinement, she recuperated at the Prince's residence.
It's been three or four months now, and she hasn't gone out at all.
Fortunately, the Yue King's Palace covers a large enough area and has enough pavilions and towers.
With her beloved husband and adorable children by her side, Xie Yuan no longer felt stifled or annoyed.
Even so, spending all day in one place, she began to yearn for the outside world.
Yuling is several hundred miles away from Yuezhou, and it would take more than half a month to travel there and back by car.
But if you ride a fast horse, you can get there in two or three days.
It's autumn again, but the scenery in Lingnan is still vibrant with red flowers and green trees, and it's very humid and hot.
All kinds of fruits are also ready for harvest.
Going out for a stroll, breathing in some fresh air, and tasting freshly picked fruit would be incredibly pleasant.
Helian Jue probably wanted his wife to relax, which is why he suggested they go together.
Xie Yuan readily agreed.
After making some preparations, the couple quietly left the Yue King's Palace the day after receiving the news.
Xie Yuan galloped on his horse along the official road through the woods.
Upon arriving in this strange world, the first skill Xie Yuan learned was horseback riding.
I have to say, the feeling of riding a horse at full speed is absolutely amazing.
Sitting high on horseback, my gaze was instantly elevated.
As I rode my steed at full gallop, the scenery flashed by on both sides, the wind whistled, my hair flew, my clothes fluttered, and even my heart soared free.
Quick stimulation brings excitement and pleasure.
The torment of late pregnancy, the excruciating pain of childbirth, the various hardships and frustrations of postpartum... nearly half a year of depression was completely released at this moment.
Helian Jue: ...
Seeing his wife acting so "crazy," he felt both worried and heartbroken.
Helian Jue dared not relax for a moment, stomping hard on the horse's hind legs to speed up and keep up with Xie Yuan.
He stared intently at his princess, fearing that something might happen and she might get hurt!
These days, there are quite a few powerful and wealthy people who have broken their necks from riding horses recklessly.
Leaving aside others, even within the Helian royal family alone, every now and then, one or two unlucky individuals would appear.
After running for a full fifteen minutes, leaving the rest of the group far behind, Xie Yuan herself was panting heavily before she slowly slowed down.
Whew~
Feels so good!
The pent-up resentment in Xie Yuan's chest completely dissipated.
Are you tired?
Helian Jue followed Xie Yuan and slowed down when he saw her stop.
As he spoke, Helian Jue raised his hand and handed Xie Yuan a handkerchief.
Xie Yuan took it, wiped the fine beads of sweat from his forehead, and said with a smile, "Tired! But in a good mood!"
"Thank you, Ah Xi!"
Xie Yuan spoke those last words with genuine feeling.
She knew that someone was always protecting her closely.
She dared to ride her horse at full speed as she pleased because she had someone protecting her and didn't have to worry about accidents!
"...You look like a noble and elegant lady from a prestigious family, but in reality you're full of arrogance."
Helian Jue's words were relatively tactful; if it were someone else, he would have already venomously accused them of being "born with a rebellious nature" and "willfully courting death."
My own princess, cough cough, I still have to pamper and coax her!
Xie Yuan smiled and didn't continue the conversation on this topic.
The horse beneath her slowed down and trotted along.
Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar surroundings, Xie Yuan felt a strange sense of emotion.
I've been in Lingnan for almost three years now.
The main reason she agreed to marry Xie Ze in place of Xie Rou was that she wanted to escape the quagmire of the Xie family.
People feared Lingnan like a tiger, but Xie Yuan remembered the beauty and prosperity of Lingnan in later generations.
Abundant in resources, with vast skies and seas.
In Xie Yuan's view, Lingnan was a paradise where she could freely express herself.
And indeed, things turned out exactly as Xie Yuan had imagined.
Although the climate and pristine environment of Lingnan present numerous difficulties and even crises.
But Xie Yuan's life truly found its most perfect expression on this land.
Training troops, building royal palaces, constructing city walls, laying the foundation for a cross-sea bridge...
Xie Yuan never imagined that she could actually turn her knowledge and skills into reality.
And she did indeed manage to change the world, little by little.
Lingnan, this magical land, has truly given her so much.
"Ah Xi, it won't be long before we leave this place, right?"
The situation in the capital is becoming increasingly tense.
The struggle among the three princes will eventually lead to chaos.
Helian Jue wanted to rightfully return to the capital, and this was the perfect opportunity.
The original three-year plan and five-year plan both seem to need to be changed.
