"Congratulations, Prince Jing."
"Thank you both."
Shen Yu was puzzled. After the two people had walked away, she asked in a low voice, "Has the Emperor bestowed a marriage upon you and Sister Qianqiu?"
King Jing nodded, his pursed lips barely concealing his bitterness: He had just learned that An'er and Ping'er had been kidnapped, so he rushed to Qinghe County, only to encounter Qiu Shuang'er as soon as he stepped out of the west gate.
Qiu Shuang'er claimed that she had snatched the child from the hands of villains and brought him back to the Yan Prince's mansion to raise. However, knowing Qiu Shuang'er's nature, he knew she was definitely trying to use the child to blackmail Shen Yu.

Bao Qianqiu quickly helped Chenyu up, shaking his head repeatedly, "Sister Chenyu, there's no need to be so polite. Prince Jing has important matters to attend to. I'll take you to Prince Jing's villa."
Shen Yu turned her head and saw that Prince Jing had already entered the Dali Temple.

As King Jing walked toward the inner hall, he happened to see Qiu Shuang'er walking toward him, covering her mouth and yawning. From a distance, she looked just like Chen Yu.
He nodded first to show goodwill, and said with a smile, "Princess Consort Yan looks so tired, could it be that you went to the dock with Prince Yan last night?"
