However, it's true that there was finally a woman whom His Highness wasn't so averse to, but unfortunately she was already married.
Anyone would feel a little sad and disappointed.
For several days in a row, Xiao Xuan confined himself to his study, either reviewing memorials or discussing important matters of the court with officials.
The medicine Ningyin gave me has been interrupted for several days, although I have a sachet to help me sleep.
But every night, I would be awakened by some bad dreams.
Qingying noticed this and reminded him with concern, "Your Highness, Miss Ning has finished the medicine she was prescribed. Shall I send someone to prescribe some more for you?"
"No need, I'm fine."
"But you didn't sleep a wink last night because of a nightmare."
Xiao Xuan narrowed his eyes, his icy aura and murderous intent causing Qingying to tremble.
He doesn't absolutely need Ning Yin's medicine. Are the imperial physicians in the Imperial Hospital really inferior to her?
But it seems that it really can't compare.
He also wanted to get treatment.
But his purpose was not so simple.
He wasn't just a patient; he simply wanted to get close to Ning Yin.
Xiao Xuan himself couldn't explain the reason for this.
Helplessly, I can only keep myself busy to eliminate the inexplicable emotions stirring within me.
After reading the memorials all morning, a eunuch came in to report.
"Your Highness, General Shen requests an audience."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Xuan raised his hand and pinched the space between his eyebrows.
They really know how to time things.
Before long, Shen Yun entered and knelt down to pay his respects.
"Your Highness, this humble subject pays his respects."
"Rise, General Shen. What brings you here today?"
Xiao Xuan's voice was cold, and he half-raised his eyelids.
"Your Highness, the flood in Xishan has now been brought under control. However, the people in the disaster area are still displaced, and the court still needs to allocate more disaster relief funds."
"Oh? In that case, we should immediately report to the Ministry of Revenue to allocate funds for disaster relief."
As he spoke, Xiao Xuan rose from his desk and glanced at Shen Yun.
He is indeed a handsome and talented man, skilled in both literature and martial arts.
There have been rumors that Shen Yun and his wife treat each other with utmost respect and live in perfect harmony.
But why did he just let Ningyin live alone in that remote courtyard?
That's not all. He didn't dare to imagine what would have happened to Ning Yin if he had arrived even a few steps later that day.
Thinking of how Shen Yun was working so hard for the affairs of the court, yet neglecting his wife.
Xiao Xuan didn't know whether to praise him or educate him.
But without paying attention, she noticed the sachet at the man's waist, which seemed to be different from the one Ning Yin had given her.
The sachets made by Ningyin embroidery have exquisite patterns and intricate workmanship.
The one at Shen Yun's waist, however, had a simple design and was of average quality.
From this perspective, even if he knew nothing about women's work, he was well aware that this was definitely not the work of one person.
Could it be that Shen Yun is having an affair?
Xiao Xuan stared at Shen Yun for a while, and then Shen Yun reported on the situation on the frontier.
Sensing that the Crown Prince was acting somewhat strangely today, Shen Yun dared not ask any further questions.
After leaving the East Palace, he originally intended to go straight back to the General's Mansion.
But as they passed by a pharmacy, they saw Ning Yin carrying large and small bags.
Since the last incident, Shen Yun has not seen Ning Yin.
With the mistress of the general's mansion gone, Wang Shi had to take on the responsibility of managing the household again.
Shen Yun was worried about his mother's slightly unwell health, so he would sometimes rush back after court to help with some matters.
In the evening, he would return to Ningyin's Yunnuan Pavilion.
Go see the flowers and plants that Ningyin planted, and the room where Ningyin lived.
Those nooks and crannies where she left her scent and shadow.
After so much time has passed, Shen Yun felt that no matter what, Ning Yin should have calmed down by now.
At this moment, Ning Yin had already boarded a carriage.
As if possessed, Shen Yun also rode his horse and followed Ning Yin all the way to the front of Ning's Medical Clinic.
Compared to its previous state of disrepair and desolation, this little courtyard now seems to be coming full of life.
He watched Ning Yin dismount, a look of joy on his face.
Suddenly, he ran up and grabbed the person.
"Ayin, about what happened last time..."
Ning Yin, who had been carrying the medicinal herbs in both hands, scattered them all on the ground due to her struggle and resistance.
The finely crushed medicinal herbs and powders instantly mixed with the soil on the ground.
Shen Yun looked down and was somewhat surprised.
Seeing Ning Yin's angry face, he quickly squatted down.
Trying to pick up the powder with your hands, you find it mixed with dirt, making it impossible to distinguish.
Shen Yun fiddled with the items for a long time but didn't pick up many.
These medicinal herbs were all purchased by Ning Yinhua at a high price, and some of them are precious and rare.
It's hard to buy even in regular pharmacies, which is why she was able to order it many days in advance.
Shen Yun handed Ning Yin a packet of medicine powder mixed with soil, a hint of guilt on his face.
"Yes, I'm sorry, I didn't know there was medicine powder in here."
"General Shen, we are already divorced. Can you please stop bothering me? I don't want to see you again!"
Shen Yun had been looking down, but upon hearing Ning Yin's words, his slight apology vanished in an instant.
He didn't do it on purpose. Besides, he had come to her in a humble manner several times. Why did she have to treat him like this?
"Ayin, no matter what, we are husband and wife. I hope you can think it through and not regret it in the future."
Ning Yin sneered and walked into the courtyard on her own.
Even now, he still feels that he can't live without him.
How could I possibly regret it?
She was incredibly happy after leaving the general's mansion.
After Ning Yin closed the courtyard gate, Shen Yun's fists clenched so tightly they cracked.
He flicked his sleeves, mounted his horse, and rode away like the wind.
His biggest regret now is signing that divorce agreement; otherwise, this woman wouldn't dare treat him like that.
Forget it, let her ignore me for a while longer, and she'll regret it someday.
Upon returning to the General's Mansion, they happened to see Lady Wuding Marquis and her siblings Yang Shuhuan and Yang Shujing.
Seeing that everyone was in the main hall, Shen Yun quickly changed into casual clothes.
Recently, both families have been discussing marriage arrangements.
He was naturally concerned about his younger sister's marriage.
At this moment, Lady Mo Jinxiu, wife of the Marquis of Wuding, was drinking tea with a radiant complexion.
"Madam Wang, your two children are truly the envy of everyone. I love Jia'er no matter how I look at her."
"I can't wait for her to marry into our Marquis's mansion. Then I can relinquish my management power and hand everything over to Jia'er."
Shen Jia, blushing and smiling shyly, was overjoyed to hear her future mother-in-law praising her like that.
