The carriage disappeared at the end of the alley. Gouzi didn't understand: "What does the male lead mean by this?"
Xihe turned back to the yard: "What he meant was that he still remembered who destroyed his family."
Gouzi was shocked: "Is he going to take revenge?"
"Maybe, who knows?"
Xihe returned to the house. Just as her front foot landed, she soared into the air the next second. The Prime Minister had already finished washing up. His whole body exuded a pleasant bamboo fragrance, and a smile in his eyes said, "My wife~"
Xihe struggled: "Meng Yuchuan, you bastard... Ugh, it's so heavy, get out of here!"
Unfortunately, the drunk person didn't listen at all. He rubbed his head against her neck like a big dog, and his hands were also restless. Xihe was amused and giggled: "No, no, haha." Her clothes were slightly open, and her body was shaking. Suddenly, she found that the person was motionless, and she looked at him in surprise.
The Prime Minister's narrow and beautiful eyes were fixed on her chest.
Xihe looked down in confusion, her face flushed as she quickly pulled the quilt over her and threw a pillow at him: "You rascal!"
Meng Yuchuan curled his lips and said, "My dear, it's a beautiful day. Let's give Xian'er a brother or sister." He pulled the beautiful woman with wide eyes into the quilt.
Xihe:? ? Bastard!
The night is long, and the singing of orioles outside the window is as melodious as that inside the tent.
Xihe had issued a gag order regarding Xie Wan'er's drowning, and it did not cause much waves in the capital, and soon disappeared in the fresher waves.
However, this woman did not behave herself, but entered the palace again under the name of Meng Xi.
"I heard that Miss Xie is planning to discuss marriage, so you should stay in the mansion and wait for your wedding."
The palace ladies-in-waiting refused her entry.
Xie Wan'er felt strange looks coming from all directions and fled in panic.
After that, Xie Wan'er tried to enter the palace and get close to the emperor many times, no matter what excuse she made, but was ruthlessly stopped outside the palace gate. However, she was not discouraged. When this way was blocked, she went to the Prime Minister's Mansion again, but was turned away.
Xihe was extremely disappointed with Xie Wan'er's choice that day and didn't want to see her at all.
Later, Xie Wan'er came a few more times, but still couldn't enter the mansion, and gradually she stopped coming.
When I heard from her again, she said she had gone to burn incense and saved a certain family's old lady, had become her godparents, and was preparing to participate in the selection of concubines...
Xihe’s response to this: emmmm, he is still a thief with such evil intentions.
But she didn't pay much attention to it, because the little phoenix that flew away from her home finally wrote back.
Early in the morning, news came from outside the porch that "the eldest lady has returned with a letter." Xihe was so happy that she put down her bowl and chopsticks, got up and went to get the letters. There was a thick stack of letters, from the old lady, from Mrs. Lu, from her and Meng Yuchuan, and from the Prime Minister's Mansion. The gifts filled a whole cart.
In the letter, the little girl asked about their health, and then she wrote a long and eloquent introduction to the scenery along the way and what she saw and heard after entering Baru.
The old lady wiped her tears and said, "How many years do I have left to live? I don't know if I can see her again before I die..."
Mrs. Lu quickly made a few "pooh" noises and said, "You are the pillar of our family. You deserve to live a thousand years. You will definitely see Xian'er get married and have children."
The old lady was amused by her: "Thousands of years, wouldn't that be a turtle?" She sighed and laughed, "If I could see Xian'er get married, I would die with peace of mind."
In the evening, after the court session, Xiao Huaiyu and Meng Yuchuan came to the Prime Minister's Mansion together.
The family had their meal and then chatted in the yard. Gradually, the moon climbed up to the treetops. The old lady and Mrs. Lu went back to rest. Meng Yuchuan and Xihe also began to yawn, but he did not mention leaving.
Xihe stood up: "Then I'll go into the house and rest."
Meng Yuchuan stood up as well, and the two of them turned around and prepared to go into the house. Xiao Huaiyu finally couldn't hold it in anymore.
"Mother, I heard that Xian'er sent a letter back?"
After exchanging a glance with Meng Yuchuan, Xihe slapped his head and said, "Oh, look at my memory. How could I have forgotten this?" He brought out a large box from the house and said, "Here, yours is."
A smile appeared on Xiao Huaiyu's gentle face: "Then you two elders should quickly rest, your son is going back."
The chief eunuch Shu Li quickly called two young eunuchs, and they carried the heavy box back to the palace with great difficulty. It is said that the eternal lamp in the Qinzheng Hall burned until dawn that night.
Inside the room, Meng Yuchuan was speechless: "Why are you teasing him for no reason?"
Xihe crawled into bed with an innocent look in her eyes: "How did I tease him? I was so busy that I forgot."
Meng Yuchuan shook his head, turned off the lights, and went to bed. "I'm also worried about Huaiyu's reluctance to choose a queen, but how old is Xian'er? Besides, she's far away in Baru now. Even if Huaiyu has the intention, it will take several years for Xian'er to return." He paused, "With the pressure from the ministers and the royal family, he may not be able to hold out."
Xihe curled her lips and said nothing, but her face clearly showed her dissatisfaction.
Meng Yuchuan laughed: "I know Huaiyu is so good in your eyes, and I feel sorry for him for having unrequited love, waiting and hoping all alone in the palace every day. We can intervene in other matters, but this matter can only be left to them."
"If Xian'er is willing, then I have no objection, but it's obvious that girl is still not enlightened."
Xihe hit him: "What nonsense are you talking about? Where did I say I had to intervene or break the window paper? I just..." His expression was depressed. "I was just guessing before. Who could have thought of it? Sigh."
To be honest, after observing for so long, not only Meng Xi, but even Xiao Huaiyu himself didn't notice it.
I guess that boy is still complacent and thinks he is a good brother who loves his sister.
But which brother would delay getting married for the sake of his sister?
In fact, they are not that old, and it is no problem to wait a few more years, but Xiao Huaiyu's status is different. He is the emperor, and the position of queen is vacant. Not only ministers and royal family members, but also the people will have various speculations over time. The impact will be so great that it may even endanger the government.
This is something Xihe doesn't want to see.
But if you complete a mission and sacrifice your daughter for it... she will really be grateful.
Xihe turned over irritably: "Never mind, love whatever you want, sleep!"
Meng Yuchuan: “…”
Looking at the person who rolled himself into a silkworm cocoon, he smiled and stretched out his arms to hug him.
Meng Xing stayed away from home for five years before returning to the court. During these five years, Xiao Huaiyu worked hard to govern the country, rectified the government, understood the people's grievances, and conscientiously served as a good emperor, which greatly raised the national strength to a higher level.
All officials were impressed and the people loved him. The emperor's aura became more and more majestic, and people dared not look directly at him.
But when he heard the eunuch report: "Your Majesty, Miss Meng is back!" the pen in his hand suddenly broke, and the emperor was stunned on the spot.
Then he threw down the memorial, and without even changing out of his casual clothes, he hurriedly rode his horse across the long street, through the busy city, dismounted in front of the Prime Minister's residence, and rushed inside. He stopped in front of the little girl he hadn't seen for three years, met her surprised gaze, and said in a low voice:
"Xi'er, you're back."
