Chapter 956 Lost and Found.
Jiang Xue whispered in his ear: "Yes, I am a little demon who can kill people. Yun Che, are you afraid?"
"No."
He looked at her lovingly: "Because my heart has long been with you."
That night, Jiang Xue slept very peacefully in Xiao Zhan's arms, no longer troubled by nightmares.
The next morning, when she woke up and wanted to hug Xiao Zhan, she found that there was no one there, and panic suddenly surged in her heart.
“Yun Che, Yun Che…” she called out.
Xiao Zhan's voice came from the window: "Xiaoxue, I'm here."
Jiang Xue breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Why did you get up so early?"
Xiao Zhan walked up to her and handed her a small wooden boy doll: "I remembered this morning that there was still one eye left to carve, so I quickly finished it. Do you like it?"
Jiang Xue took the wood carving and smiled happily: "Of course I like it. As long as it is a gift from you, I will cherish it very much. Now I have a pair of wooden dolls, symbolizing that we will never be separated."
In fact, she didn't tell Xiao Zhan that when he was away, she also carved a boy doll for herself, just to pair with his girl doll.
But only what he made with his own hands is the most precious.
After a pause, she continued, "Yun Che, can you promise me one thing?"
"What?" Xiao Zhan asked gently.
Jiang Xue suddenly threw herself into Xiao Zhan's arms and hugged him tightly: "In the future, you must call me first when you wake up in the morning. I don't want to experience the feeling I had this morning again. I thought you had left me again."
Xiao Zhan felt her change. She used to be brave and fearless, but now she has become dependent and afraid of losing.
He knew it was because she loved him too deeply and was afraid of losing him again. Now she was more like an ordinary woman.
"I was negligent this morning."
Xiao Zhan said softly: "I will make sure you don't have such troubles again."
Jiang Xue calmed down and got up to wash up.
She decided to start learning a new bun now, but she was not good at it and failed several times.
However, as an important figure in the city, she did not care about other people's opinions, and no one dared to criticize her even when she had a spinster's hairstyle.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Zhan walked up to her and picked up the wooden comb: "Xiaoxue, let me help you with your hair."
Xiao Zhan had good skills and quickly helped her tie her hair into a bun.
She smiled slightly: "Today I tie my long hair up for you, I hope we can love each other as before. Yun Che, we must cherish each other."
He kissed her cheek gently: "Of course I will."
Then, Xiao Zhan picked up Luodai to draw eyebrows for her, but his skills were obviously not as good as she expected, and the eyebrows he drew looked like two little bugs.
This made her laugh uncontrollably: "Yun Che, are eyebrows like this really good-looking?"
Xiao Zhan also laughed: "It seems that I underestimated the difficulty of drawing eyebrows. I thought it was as simple as drawing normally."
Finally, Jiang Xue wiped off the strange eyebrows and decided to accompany Xiao Zhan out without makeup.
After breakfast, they headed to a nunnery outside the city, but Jiang Xue chose to stay in the carriage and wait.
When Mrs. Lu saw Xiao Zhan, she anxiously asked about her son Ming'er's condition.
"Cousin, is Ming'er okay?" After they were placed here, they were almost cut off from the outside world.
"Ming'er is fine. He has corrected a lot and is growing up healthily. You don't have to worry, sister-in-law." Xiao Zhan comforted.
Lu suddenly knelt down in front of him: "Cousin, I have realized the mistakes I made before, please let me go. Ming'er is still young, he needs his aunt's care."
Xiao Zhan responded gently but firmly: "Sister-in-law, time will prove everything. We will consider it."
"Sister-in-law, you don't have to worry too much. Ming'er is almost nine years old and is no longer a child. Second cousin's wife takes good care of him, so you don't have to worry about him anymore."
"Cousin, I know that Ah Yin is a good woman, but she has to take care of Jue'er at the same time. I raised Ming'er since he was a child, so I think it is more appropriate for me to take care of him. For the sake of your eldest cousin, please forgive my insistence."
"If it weren't for my brother's kindness, would my sister-in-law still be able to live peacefully in this nunnery today?"
Xiao Zhan glanced at her calmly: "The person you tried to hurt was the regent princess of Qian Kingdom, the woman I love most in my life."
"But Princess Changle did not..."
"You want to say she's okay?"
Xiao Zhan sneered: "Her safety is just luck, but it doesn't mean that your behavior is innocent. Sister-in-law, you are lucky to be alive. Big brother's protection can't protect you forever.
If you know what's good for you, you can practice meditation here and pray for Ming'er. Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous."
Lu's actions caused Jiang Heng to be injured, forcing him and Jiang Xue to go to Xixia to seek medicine.
As a result, they lost almost all their entourage, and his second cousin also died tragically.
Lu, Feng Ziqing and his aunt are all to blame for all this.
After saying that, Xiao Zhan turned and left, no longer paying attention to the kneeling Lu, and then went to Madam Feng's residence.
When she saw Xiao Zhan, Mrs. Feng's eyes brightened up for a moment, but soon dimmed again.
"Since you don't recognize me as your aunt, why do you come to see me?"
"I have to tell you something, whether it should be said or not."
Madam Feng looked at him and said, "When you decided to send me to this desolate place, I thought there was nothing left for us to talk about."
Although she knew that Xiao Zhan was doing this to save his life, she still felt pain in her heart and could not help but say these words.
"I have never given up on you. If I really wanted to give up, I would not have used my feelings to force Xiaoxue to let you and my cousin's wife go.
Nor would I specifically ask my second cousin's wife to bring Jue'er to see you regularly to comfort you.
However, if you are wrong, you are wrong. Everyone must be responsible for their mistakes, even relatives. That is why I sent you here. "
Madam Feng sneered: "It seems that you have been completely fascinated by Jiang Xue and have completely lost your mind. Since she is the only one in your heart, why do you come to see me? Let's go, there is nothing to talk about between us."
"If Auntie doesn't want to talk, then listen to me."
"It seems that you came prepared. You have to speak out." Madam Feng said, "Go ahead. I am listening."
"Does Aunt know where I've been lately?"
Although Lin Yin mentioned that Xiao Zhan was not in the capital, Madam Feng also guessed that since Jiang Heng was poisoned, he should have gone to look for an antidote.
But she didn't say it clearly: "You always have your own plans, how would you know where I'm going?"
"I once traveled to Xixia and came back with scars all over my body. These scars bear witness to the suffering I endured there, and they will always be with me."
When Madam Feng saw Xiao Zhan’s scar, her body trembled slightly, and her eyes were filled with pain and pity.
She looked at Xiao Zhan in disbelief. After all, Xiao Zhan had always been a favored child of heaven, but now he was experiencing such hardship.
In order to obtain the antidote to save the emperor, Xiao Zhan and Xiao Xue led the team to Xixia.
