"Look at yourself."
Li Huan: "What did I do now?" This dad of his, he can't get by without talking to him every day, right?
"The Regent's children are all grown up. And you? You don't even have a wife yet. You said you were learning from the Regent's admirable qualities, but what about now?"
Li Huan: "..."
Well, they're pressuring me to get married.
"Don't do anything reckless. If you hurt that girl, neither your reputation nor mine will be able to withstand scrutiny..."
Li Mingzhong: "Tsk... You're almost thirty and still a bachelor, what girl would want you..."
Li Huan's face darkened.
"Dad, let's not talk about this anymore. You're still young. If it really doesn't work out, you and Mom can have another one."
Upon hearing this, Li Mingzhong glared and bristled, "You're talking nonsense! Your mother suffered so much when you were born, and now you expect us to have you again?"
"I don't want my future wife to suffer because of childbirth... Father, you should understand this feeling very well."
Li Mingzhong fell silent. "So, this is how you're going to live your life? You won't find someone to be with you? The child doesn't say anything, but his father understands. It's normal for a man to care for his wife. If you don't want to have children, fine, but what about later? When your mother and I are gone, you'll be all alone..."
Li Huan knew his parents loved him. "Father, the reason I don't plan to find a wife is because when I left the capital to become an imperial envoy, I met the only girl in my life who made my heart flutter..."
"Then why don't you go find her? Is it because you like her, but she doesn't like you?"
A flicker of grief crossed Li Huan's eyes. "No, there was a riot at the time. She died trying to save me..."
Li Mingzhong remained silent and stopped speaking.
"So, Dad, please don't find me anyone else in the future. I can't forget her."
Where is she buried?
Li Huan shook his head, "I was dealing with those things at the time, and I was thinking of giving her a proper burial. But then her family came and said they had already taken her away... and told me not to bother her anymore."
Therefore, he didn't even know where she was buried.
Li Mingzhong patted Li Huan on the shoulder, "I won't urge you anymore. Focus on your career."
Li Huan: "Okay."
After Li Mingzhong left, a guard stepped forward and said, "Young Master."
"It's nothing."
After calming himself down in the study, Li Huan returned to his usual self.
Is the Regent Prince at home today?
"Yes, young master."
Li Huan: "Then let's go to the Regent's Palace."
After changing his clothes, he went to the Regent's Palace.
...
There were quite a few people here today. Murong Jin looked at Lan Ziyao and Jin Nanzhou and his wife sitting next to her.
Then came the woman who entered; she was strikingly beautiful and had become even more poised and elegant.
"elder brother."
Murong Jin rushed over with that person, saying, "Long time no see."
Ling Qiao'er's eyes were red at the corners. "It's good that you're alright."
Murong Jin: "Mm."
Suddenly, two figures appeared in the courtyard. "Sister!"
Everyone else looked at the people in the courtyard; one was pale-faced, and the other had a vivid expression.
"We're here!"
Ling Qiao'er stood to the side, watching them.
She never expected that the regent was a woman.
I didn't see this mentioned at all in the book.
However, those stories are all in the past; now it's Murong Jin's new era.
Murong Jin would be highly sought after in both ancient and modern times.
Ling Qiao'er's eyes lit up; she was practically a model of a new kind of woman.
"Hey, looks like we've come at just the right time."
Everyone looked towards the outside of the courtyard. An Kesen and Yu Jing'er walked in together and stood there watching them.
"On such a cold day, only you guys are making a ruckus in the yard."
Upon seeing that figure, Huo Yun'er exclaimed, "Sister Jing'er!"
Yu Jing'er: "It's been a long time."
Then his gaze fell on the person opposite him, dressed in a dark black dress and draped with a light gray fur cloak...
Yu Jing'er tilted her head. "This is the real you."
Murong Jin's voice was calm: "You flatter me."
Yu Jing'er walked over, reached out and hugged the person, "Long time no see."
You startled me.
Murong Jin: "Rumors stop with the wise."
Yu Jing'er snorted, "It's all because I was worried about you. I thought there was something wrong with the Gu worms I had brought."
"No problem, it's just that the effect isn't very good."
Yu Jing'er: "...How long have you been unconscious?"
Murong Jin: "It seems to be around 17 days."
Yu Jing'er: "It's alright. The fact that you woke up means it's still okay." It seems she still needs to study it carefully.
Murong Jin smiled and said, "Mm."
Ankerson stood silently to the side; it turned out his wife already knew the Regent was alright…
They don't even talk to him.
...
Yu Jing'er sat down next to An Kesen and spoke in a low voice, only An Kesen could hear her, "If you dare to tell Di Junlan, there's no need for us to stay together."
Ankesen sat up straight. "No, madam, please don't worry."
Now I understand why the lady told him; because at that time, he might actually have told His Majesty about it directly…
Lan Ziyao looked at Dai Lingyuan, "Dude, does it hurt?"
Dai Lingyuan was still injured, but said, "I'm fine."
Huo Yun'er poured him a cup of hot water, "Let him suffer as much as he wants."
He dares to act alone.
Dai Lingyuan: "..." He dared not speak.
After all, this girl is hard to coax when she's angry. If she sneaks away, where will he find her?
