"The Sixth Prince appears to be normal!"
"The Third Prince's wife, Lady Wei, requested an audience at the palace gate with the Crown Prince, but was turned away by the Empress Dowager."
"The heir of the Marquis of Yong'an's mansion is engaged to a woman from the Luo family, and the wedding date is set for the end of this month."
"The Marquis of Anle's residence is very well-behaved and has always kept its doors closed to visitors. Even Yuwen Hao, who is usually high-profile, seems to have become much more subdued recently."
The shadow guard briefly reported on all the recent events that had occurred in the capital.
Helian Jue listened quietly while drinking the ginseng soup.
It seems that, besides the Yellow Sect, even the Third Prince couldn't resist joining in.
However, Empress Dowager Xiao was a clever woman and would never get involved.
However, Yuwen Hao from the Marquis of Anle's mansion really surprised Helian Jue.
Some time ago, Yuwen Hao was making headlines in the capital.
Helian Jue was particularly concerned about his childhood friendship with Xie Yuan.
Although Xie Yuan had nothing special about Yuwen Hao, he even used Yuwen Hao as a subject of gossip in a letter to Helian Jue.
The words conveyed only the joy of watching the spectacle, devoid of any genuine emotion.
But Helian Jue was jealous.
He was even more outrageous.
He only hoped that his A-Yuan could only have him.
Childhood sweethearts, senior and junior brothers and sisters, all of you, get out of here.
Helian Jue even wanted Yuwen Hao to disappear.
However, although he was insane, he didn't want A Yuan to know about his madness.
Even if he wanted to kill Yuwen Hao, he wanted to find a legitimate reason.
Well, Yuwen Hao's identity is quite intriguing.
Therefore, even though Yuwen Hao did not reveal any flaws, Helian Jue still had his eye on him.
Then the Huangjiao (yellow cult) scandal broke out.
Helian Jue couldn't help but wonder: Could it be that the leader of this Yellow Sect is Yuwen Hao?
"Continue the investigation! Investigate thoroughly! I do not believe Yuwen Hao is truly innocent."
Closed to visitors?
Is it that he truly doesn't want to get involved in trouble, or is he feeling guilty, or is he using retreat as a tactic to advance?
"Yes, sir!"
The shadow guard agreed and did not leave immediately, but stood there in case Helian Jue had any other instructions.
Helian Jue waved his hand, indicating that he was already prepared and didn't need shadow guards for the time being.
Seeing Helian Jue's reaction, the shadow guard bowed and quietly retreated to a corner.
...
The next morning, Xie Yuan slowly woke up.
"Hiss~"
My head feels so heavy.
It felt like a hangover; my head was completely foggy.
Pain, dizziness, and a strange feeling of fatigue.
It seems that this Zhou Dynasty version of Mafeisan (a type of anesthetic) still has a strong aftereffect.
Sighing to himself, Xie Yuan turned over and sat up.
Hearing the commotion, Luo Peiyu and the others hurried over.
Some helped Xie Yuan get dressed, while others helped her wash and change.
Xie Yuan quickly tidied up and then ran to Helian Jue's bedside.
She continued to "chat" with Helian Jue while massaging his limbs.
"Axi, today is the twenty-fourth day since you fell into a coma. I heard there is a miracle doctor in Qizhou with extraordinary medical skills, and I have already sent people to Qizhou to find him."
"I wonder how Baozhu is doing! I've seen the name 'Li You' many times in her letters!"
“Li You is the eldest son of the governor of Liangzhou. Governor Li comes from the Guanlong Li clan, which is also a prominent family.”
"Baozhu seems to have feelings for that young man from the Li family. Perhaps, I will receive good news from her soon."
“Duoshou has sent a letter. I have kept him in the palace so that he, Ruyi, and others can take care of Aping and the others.”
"Duoshou said that Aping can recite poems now and reads 'Taigong's Family Instructions' with Azhen."
"As expected, Mother loves Ah Le the most. There's no way around it; she looks most like you, and she's becoming more and more like Mother..."
Xie Yuan rambled on and on, talking about family matters, gossip about friends, and occasionally mentioning important matters of the court.
"The construction of the new city in Chang'an is progressing smoothly. Tens of thousands of people are working on the project together, and there are so many craftsmen from all over the world. It may be completed in less than three years."
"And the Taiji Palace is also progressing smoothly according to our previous plan."
"I'd like to send a group of imperial guards over first, but I haven't decided on a commander yet. Ah Xi, wake up quickly, let's discuss and decide on someone, okay?"
By the end, Xie Yuan's voice was trembling with tears.
Thud!
Thud!
Tears fell one by one.
It can be said that Xie Yuan has been in this fictional feudal dynasty for five or six years, and she has hardly ever cried.
After arriving in Zhongzhou, she shed almost as many tears as she had in the first half of her life.
Cry, just hope these tears won't be shed in vain.
Despite his inner turmoil, Xie Yuan's face remained filled with sorrow and despair.
There seemed to be no light left in her eyes.
"Ah, Ah Yuan!"
Don't cry!
A very faint sound suddenly rang out.
Xie Yuan's pupils contracted sharply as he looked at Helian Jue with a mixture of surprise and delight.
Sure enough, she saw that the eyelashes of the man who had been in a coma for nearly a month were trembling slightly.
Actually, Helian Jue moved his fingers first.
However, Xie Yuan was so engrossed in crying that his eyes were blurred with tears, and he didn't see anything at all.
Having no other choice, Helian Jue finally spoke up.
His voice was somewhat hoarse and very low.
Xie Yuan still heard it, "A-Xi?"
She braced herself on the bed with both hands, her eyes fixed on Helian Jue, not wanting to miss any of his reactions.
Slowly, slowly, Helian Jue opened his eyes.
"Ah Xi, you... you're finally awake?"
