The old man received a different answer than he had imagined, but he still nodded happily.
"Yes, thanks to Miss Song, otherwise I don't know what Ajarn would be like in the future!"
He spoke rather modestly, but in reality, given the circumstances that day, if Song Tangxue hadn't intervened, Ajarn would probably have been on his way to the underworld in less than a month.
Ajarn was also extremely happy: "Thank you."
"Don't be so polite with me, it's all I should do."
Song Tangxue took out silver needles again, preparing to begin acupuncture.
However, as they were talking, the topic of his departure came up.
"I may have to leave in three to five days, so please be careful, there are many villains on the road."
Song Tangxue couldn't very well say it outright: the Third Prince had murderous intentions towards them.
The father and son were, after all, foreigners, and the old man was incredibly wealthy. If this were to cause a conflict between the two countries, it would be disastrous.
The old man was a smart man and quickly understood Song Tangxue's implication.
He calmly nodded and immediately said.
"Yes, I understand what you mean, please rest assured."
He stood up as he spoke, seemingly overjoyed, and continued...
"We are, after all, from out of town, and we have many rare things that the ladies have never seen before. I've asked them to prepare them as a farewell gift for you!"
Song Tangxue wanted to refuse, but Azan next to her said something.
"Please don't refuse, Miss Song. This is truly our heartfelt offer. If you don't accept it, we're afraid we'll feel terrible for the rest of our lives!"
He spoke with great seriousness and earnestness, saying that although his condition had improved, he was still susceptible to stress.
Knowing Ajarn's situation, Song Tangxue had no choice but to nod at this moment.
"In that case, thank you very much."
The old man quickly said yes, yes, and then left happily.
Ajarn seemed somewhat sad, as if he wasn't as happy as he had been earlier.
He looked at the silver needles covering his hands, pondered for a moment, and then broke the silence.
"Miss Song, will we ever see each other again?"
“Ajarn, I am already engaged, and I like him very much.”
Song Tangxue said calmly, but as she spoke, she realized that even she herself didn't know that a smile had appeared on her lips.
This is a happy smile, which Ajarn can recognize at a glance.
He understood, of course, that he was not good enough for such a wonderful person as Song Tangxue, but he still said...
"How about we become family from now on? We must meet again if we have the chance!"
Ajarn spoke with utmost sincerity, and Song Tangxue was naturally moved by his earnestness. Since her family was no problem, she nodded directly.
"Okay, if there's a chance in the future, we'll definitely meet again."
This matter is gradually coming to an end, and the day when Song Tangxue will leave is about to be put on the agenda.
She did not go to the palace to bid farewell to the emperor in person, but wrote a letter and asked someone to deliver it on her behalf.
After reading the farewell letter, the emperor stood there for a long time, feeling quite sentimental.
"My plans haven't even been implemented yet, and now this person is leaving..."
The head eunuch already knew what was going on and immediately spoke up to offer advice.
"This servant has heard that this Miss Song has quite a background, perhaps someone of great importance from elsewhere. If that's the case, we will meet again!"
"That being said, it is time to part ways, and I am very reluctant to leave."
The Emperor spoke with a somewhat dejected tone, and just then, the Empress appeared from behind.
She had, of course, heard what was said earlier, and knew that the Emperor had no romantic feelings for Song Tangxue, so she smiled and said...
"Your Majesty is right, please don't be sad. Our little rascal has bothered me again today!"
"My beloved concubine, thank goodness you are here."
The Emperor said with deep feeling, and then embraced the Empress.
But he was completely unaware that the empress in his arms had already betrayed him, and that even the child in her womb was not his.
Song Tangxue stayed in the mansion for several more days, and Azan's condition finally stabilized.
He used to be unable to walk independently and needed someone to help him.
But now, it can walk on its own, although it can't walk for long, but it is already progress.
Moreover, his previously sallow complexion has finally become somewhat normal, although it is still a bit pale, but it has improved a lot.
"Miss Song will be leaving tomorrow, so I have prepared a banquet to bid her farewell!"
Listening to the old man's heartfelt words, Song Tangxue was also happy, because she was finally going to see the person she had been longing for day and night.
So he also picked up his wine glass and clinked it against the old man's.
"Thank you for your kindness, but you don't need to be so polite with me in the future. Just treat it as a normal visit between relatives."
She paused for a moment as she spoke, then explained her plans.
"Please give me a specific address when you arrive, and we can communicate directly by letter. You can also tell me about Ajarn's situation."
"That's great! We'll be able to get in touch again!"
The old man said very happily, and even Ajarn smiled shyly.
He glanced at Song Tangxue: "Have a safe trip."
Song Tangxue nodded in agreement, and the next morning, she left quietly without disturbing anyone.
Song Tangxue disliked farewell scenes the most, which is why she did this.
"You've finally arrived! I was so excited I couldn't sleep all night, all for the day I could go home!"
Meng Youyu had been eagerly waiting at the previous inn, and when she saw that it was Song Tangxue, she immediately smiled and said.
Song Tangxue also found a few helpers to help her carry her things.
"So many things! Even this box isn't the kind of thing we usually see. It must be from another region."
Meng Youyu smiled and spoke, then took out some loose silver and gave it to the errand runners.
"Thank you very much, brothers."
After everyone left, Song Tangxue became quite emotional, as she hadn't slept well the night before.
Before he could speak, he heard Meng Youyu say something that sounded rather conflicted.
"Should we find the delegation first? Otherwise, if we go back like this, we might be criticized."
They certainly didn't do anything wrong, but this incident allowed people to find fault with them.
After all, they had left the group and spent so much time alone, so they were bound to be the subject of malicious speculation.
What Meng Youyu said was true, but Song Tangxue was not afraid of it.
"It's nothing but the same old tricks. I'm used to it. Don't worry, I know what to do."
Song Tangxue spoke with remarkable calmness and composure, as if she didn't take the matter to heart, and she even had a smile on her face as she spoke.
"I'm going to feast for several days when I get back. I haven't had any hometown food these past few days and I really miss it."
"That's easy, your partner practically wants to fatten you up like a little pig!"
Meng Youyu laughed and joked, knowing that Xie Qianzhong would give Song Tangxue any good things he had untouched.
Song Tangxue glared at Meng Youyu: "You're so mean!"
