...
As dusk settled, the vast and quiet Yichun Hall of the Eastern Palace was suddenly filled with the shadowy darkness when Yue Jiang's mournful voice rang out.
"Your Highness, I miss you!"
After their lovemaking ended, Yue Jiang lay on Jing Yan's chest and started crying for some reason.
Jing Yan could feel that his chest was covered in tears. He stroked Yue Jiang's hair and comforted her, "I'm here, aren't I?"
"Your Highness will not be here tomorrow, nor the day after, nor even tonight. The thought of this makes me miss you terribly."
Yue Jiang snorted softly, her voice filled with resentment: "Your Highness, it seems you don't miss me at all, and you don't understand me at all."
Jing Yan: "..."
But when he left the palace before, he never missed his family so much, because he could still see them when he returned. Why should Yue Jiang worry so much?
"Jiang'er, I will be back soon, don't worry about me too much."
After he finished speaking, Jing Yan didn't hear Yue Jiang say anything for a long time. He looked down and saw that she had fallen asleep.
In the darkness, only Jing Yan was awake, and it was unknown whether Yue Jiang had heard what he had just said.
The next day.
Jing Yan got up to change his clothes before Yue Jiang did. Ever since Yue Jiang woke up, he had been sitting on the bed staring blankly at him without saying a word.
Jing Yan felt somewhat uncomfortable. He kept glancing at Yue Jiang's expression, and there was something new in her usually alluring eyes.
Jing Yan paused, as if he could see the deep reluctance in Yue Jiang's eyes.
"Jiang'er, I'm leaving!"
Yue Jiang's voice was weak as she nodded hesitantly, "Your Highness, take care of yourself. I won't see you off any further."
"Take care of yourself too," Jingyan thought. It was just a temporary separation, and perhaps Yuejiang would be fine after taking a stroll around the palace.
Without further delay, he tidied himself up and left the palace immediately.
After Jing Yan left Yichun Palace, Qing Ke and Qing Fei brought in water. Qing Fei quickly comforted her, "Your Highness, please don't make yourself sick while you're thinking about His Highness."
Yue Jiang let out a soft breath, her previous sorrowful expression vanishing, and even her deep reluctance gradually disappeared, leaving her with a slightly conflicted look.
"Being sick is no good, Your Highness. You must not miss the illness that I miss."
Qingfei: "Ah!"
Wasn't she comforting the Crown Princess?
Seeing Qingfei's blank expression, Qingke laughed and said, "Qingfei, don't be troubled. Even if it's about longing, His Highness the Crown Prince must be more longing than our Crown Princess."
"Your Highness's reaction upon his return will be crucial, Your Highness. By the way, what are you planning to do today?"
Yue Jiang tilted her head in thought, then suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "Haven't we ever really gone out of the palace to explore properly? We have the cinnabar mine, but we haven't even had time to open the shop yet. Let's go out of the palace today!"
