The atmosphere suddenly became a bit awkward.
"I'm sorry, I really couldn't control myself at the time. I was probably really crazy back then, and ever since then I've been having occasional bouts of madness. Even the imperial physicians couldn't figure out why I was like this."
I had planned to retire with you after everything was settled, and I would be your legs, accompanying you to see the mountains and rivers, the glaciers and snowfields. I never expected you to come back on your own, and your legs are healed.
I had finally managed to forget that resolute moment you made at the wedding, and then you suddenly burst into my world. I wanted to escape, but I couldn't control myself. I just wanted to send you back as soon as possible. Now, it's alright, we'll never be apart again. We'll be together for all eternity.
It was Ji Ruchen who broke the silence first, but for some reason, as he spoke, he pulled me into his arms again and wouldn't let go.
It is said that men do not easily shed tears, but Ji Ruchen has been crying like a broken dam these past few days, and he is particularly prone to sadness. I thought that perhaps his parents had made a scene and he had suffered a lot of shock, so I quickly patted his back to comfort him.
I don't know how my leg healed. It seems like it happened in a dream, where a beautiful noblewoman helped me regenerate my broken bone.
There, I was a princess, and I had an older brother.
I suddenly remembered that the brother in my dream took me to a place called the Amber Glass Palace, where my leg was healed.
I asked Ji Ruchen if he knew a man named Feng Qingxiao.
He said he didn't know.
Who told my father about my return to Minchuan? My father said it was a man in black who told him. I thought it was Feng Qingxiao, but now it feels unreal.
I suppose I've gone off to dream of being a butterfly, like Zhuangzi did; otherwise, how would I explain all these strange and bizarre things that have happened to me?
Let's get married.
Ji Ruchen suddenly proposed to me, which really startled me.
Marriage? He's still nominally married to the princess. If I were to marry him, I'd just be a concubine at most. No, no, no. Although I verbally acknowledge that I'm his concubine, I've never considered becoming anyone's concubine. Saying I'm a concubine is just a temporary measure.
Does he really think I want to be his concubine? That's absolutely impossible. I quickly shook my head, and he laughed again.
"What are you thinking? I'm saying I want to marry you, I want to take you as my wife, do you understand?"
As he spoke, he took a leaf-shaped jade pendant from my neck. "With this as proof, are you trying to back out?"
I don't know what I promised him yesterday, so I had to ask:
"You and the princess haven't divorced yet, have you?"
"You forgot? Yesterday, Father Emperor personally issued an imperial decree that Princess Anguo would remarry the newly promoted Second Prince, Gu Changzhou."
He laughed at my naivety.
In the end, I couldn't resist him, and we got married in this dark and hopeless prison. There wasn't even a red veil, nor the blessings of my parents and relatives. That's how I became Ji Ruchen's wife.
And so, we spent nearly ten days in the death row, but instead of our execution, our saviors arrived.
When Xiao Qing arrived, the death row instantly transformed into a slaughterhouse. Xiao Qing became the ruler of this place, followed by Luo Qingyun, Mu Bai, and others.
Mu Bai opened the prison door and rescued us. The situation seemed very serious. Xiao Qing, Luo Qingyun, and Mu Bai all seemed to be injured. There was a lot of fighting outside. Here, I saw Ling Guang Wang Lan Ye, whom I hadn't seen for a long time.
