Honestly, since the Gu poison was removed from his body, Feng Xilan has come to realize that he has lost his love forever, and he has even lost interest in pursuing power.
However, Feng Xilan can now clearly sense the changes in the palace and the court.
Today, Mu Chenshuang's words have completely pulled him out of his inner shackles.
He may be indifferent to power and his status as crown prince, but there are too many hidden and intertwined things behind this status, and it's not something he can simply give up on his own.
A gentle breeze caressed her face, and Feng Xilan slowly raised her eyes. Her clear black and white eyes finally shone with light, and at the same time, they regained their former sharpness and decisiveness.
When Feng Xilan left the Imperial Garden, she stood tall and walked with a steady and powerful gait, completely different from when she arrived, as if she were a different person.
The Marquis of Jingbian's Residence.
After having lunch, Mu Chenshuang received a letter from Qi Ye from Jiangnan.
The door was tightly closed. Mu Chenshuang opened the letter that Qi Ye had written by hand. There was nothing particularly important or confidential in the letter. It was just about how to manage the house they bought in Jiangnan and how to train the guards on a daily basis.
If there's any other useful information, it's that Qi Ye has already figured out some of the ins and outs of officialdom in Qinzhou for him, and that he's been tossing and turning in bed for the past few nights, tormented by lingering images of the past.
After reading the two-page letter, Mu Chenshuang fell into deep thought, her mind preoccupied with the nightmares that plagued Qiye.
Now that Chengli, whom she unexpectedly saved, has been confirmed to be the orphan of the King of Libei, it seems that Qiye's serious injury and amnesia, as well as being pursued by the Dark Night Assassin, are probably definitely related to this matter.
Although it may have been a bad experience and a painful memory, it might be better to let Qiye recall that memory rather than let him be trapped in this nihilistic and painful nightmare.
Moreover, it would be even better if Qi Ye had discovered some compelling evidence that the King of Libei had been framed before he was injured and lost his memory.
With this in mind, Mu Chenshuang secretly made up her mind. She decided to continue researching the medicinal bath for Qiye, determined to restore Qiye's memories.
As she was pondering what strong and stimulating herbs she should add to the medicinal bath, she suddenly noticed a hand waving in front of her.
"Miss?" Linglong, whose mind had been preoccupied with Qi Ye's letter since the beginning, finally couldn't help but call out to Mu Chenshuang.
Mu Chenshuang was taken aback. When she looked up, she saw Linglong looking at the letter in her hand with eyes practically glued to it.
Linglong, who hadn't heard from Qiye for a long time, was clearly missing him, but when she saw Mu Chenshuang smiling knowingly at her, her round cheeks flushed red.
Linglong clutched the hem of her clothes, her cheeks flushed, and turned her head away.
"Miss, why are you looking at me like that? I'm just curious whether Qi Ye has done a good job of the tasks you assigned him at the Jiangnan residence, or whether he's been slacking off."
Linglong blinked and turned to look at Mu Chenshuang as if afraid that she would see through her thoughts.
But Linglong's attempt to conceal it was clearly ineffective; her little schemes were written all over her face, and Mu Chenshuang had already seen through them.
"Do you still want to ask him if he mentioned you?" Mu Chenshuang looked up at Linglong with a hint of teasing and helplessness in her eyes. Linglong's eyes lit up and she nodded subconsciously, but then she seemed to remember something and shook her head.
