"However, to avoid unnecessary trouble, you should exchange the gifts you once gave each other."
Tang Mochu was silent for a while before he replied, "...There are quite a lot of things, I need to pack them up..."
"My Lord, I have packed everything for you!"
Song Jiaojiao's voice came.
Behind him was a servant carrying boxes.
Inside were the sachets, jade pendants, shoes and other items that Zhu Xianyue had given him.
Every stitch was made by her own hands.
He also witnessed her transformation from being clumsy in sewing to becoming an unrivaled embroidery master.
He said he wanted to pack up in order to keep a few things to comfort his longing...
Originally, Tang Mochu still felt a little guilty towards Song Jiaojiao, whom he had deceived.
But now, it's gone.
…
The General of Cavalry did not attend court for a whole month.
I heard that his daughter was sick.
Everyone can understand that the General of Cavalry loves his daughter very much.
Tang Mochu felt a little nervous.
Is she sick because of loneliness?
…
Zhu Xianyue's "illness" came quickly and went away quickly.
It was just for show.
The General of Cavalry also returned to court.
After leaving the court, Tang Mochu deliberately waited for the General of Cavalry on his way back home, and had a carefully planned "chance encounter" with him.
He thought that the General of Cavalry, who loved his daughter dearly, would definitely ask him to give an explanation.
He could also ask about Zhu Xianyue's condition indirectly.
But the General of Cavalry just saluted him politely and courteously.
Then left.
Tang Mochu couldn't help himself and stopped him to ask.
"Although I have broken off my engagement with Miss Zhu, I often hear others say that we used to be very close, and we were childhood sweethearts."
"It just so happens that an aide who is proficient in medicine has come to my residence. I heard that Miss Zhu is ill, and I might be able to help her."
As he finished speaking, he quickly and accurately caught the anger and sadness that flashed in the eyes of the General of Cavalry.
Tang Mochu thought that the General of Cavalry was going to settle accounts with him.
But the General of the Cavalry simply said, "My little girl just caught a cold, it's not a serious illness. I'm sorry to trouble the Crown Prince..."
It's obvious that this is a lie and a cover-up.
Tang Mochu became even more certain that Zhu Xianyue was sick because of him.
In order not to disturb him, Sheng persuaded the General of Cavalry to cover himself with wind and cold.
Yue'er, Yue'er, why did you suddenly stop making trouble?
I wish you weren't so sensible.
…
When Song Jiaojiao was six months pregnant, the queen held a flower-viewing banquet in the palace.
As the daughter of Dugu Nianyun's close friend, Zhu Xianyue was naturally among the invited guests.
During this period, Dugu Nianyun even wanted to adopt Zhu Xianyue as his daughter.
——If we can’t be mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, being a daughter is also good.
By then, Zhu Xianyue would no longer be the daughter of the General of the Cavalry, but a princess of the Long Dynasty.
Noble status.
But Zhu Xianyue directly refused.
Others laughed at her and called her stupid.
Little did he know that Zhu Xianyue had other plans in mind.
If she gets together with Dugu Nianyun's biological son Tang Yanchu in the future, she and Dugu Nianyun will still be a family.
Although Dugu Nianyun was reluctant, he also respected Zhu Xianyue's ideas.
…
To this banquet, Dugu Nianyun invited almost all the noble ladies in the capital.
Song Jiaojiao, who was not among the invited guests, was personally escorted to the entrance of the banquet by the Crown Prince Tang Mochu.
With the support of the Crown Prince, even though everyone despised him in their hearts, they still did the work to save face.
Queen Dugu Nianyun did not drive Song Jiaojiao away because she was pregnant.
Just don't let her get close.
Zhu Xianyue has always been by Dugu Nianyun's side.
