The system didn't know either; he thought he had done it flawlessly, so who knew how it was exposed?
"Seeing that Kangxi doesn't seem to blame you, you really don't want to go back? Don't you humans have a saying that goes, 'A day as husband and wife is worth a hundred days of kindness'?"
Youqing scoffed and said to the system, "We humans have a saying: 'Husbands and wives are like birds in the same forest; when disaster strikes, they fly away separately.' Besides, he and I are not husband and wife."
She believes that a married couple is one husband and one wife.
Kangxi, let's forget about it!
The next day, as soon as Youqing opened the courtyard gate, she saw two people standing outside: Chengying and Sangzhu.
Youqing's eyes widened: "Why are you here?"
The two of them reddened when they saw Youqing.
Chengying was a bit better; she was more reserved and didn't show much on her face. Sangzhu, on the other hand, was more emotional. Upon seeing Youqing and hearing her voice, she suddenly threw herself into Youqing's arms.
"Master, you're not dead. It's so good that you're not dead."
Youqing held the person in her arms. If she had to say who she was most reluctant to leave behind when she faked her death and left the palace, it would be Sangzhu and Chengying.
"Stop crying. I'm sorry for sneaking out of the palace. Come in and talk!"
Youqing led the person into her courtyard.
Emperor Kangxi had been keeping an eye on Youqing's courtyard. When he heard that Sangzhu had suddenly thrown herself into Youqing's arms, Kangxi felt a pang of jealousy.
For an emperor to be jealous of a palace maid is more terrifying than seeing a ghost.
“Liang Jiugong, the rules for palace maids need to be strengthened in the future. It’s not proper for them to be pulling and tugging at their masters.”
Liang Jiugong lowered his head, speechless. He really didn't know how to describe the current Emperor; arguing with a palace maid was truly...
"Your Majesty is right."
Youqing had a lot to say to Sangzhu and Chengying. She recounted her experiences after leaving the palace, which made Chengying and Sangzhu's eyes widen. They looked at Youqing with curious eyes every now and then, saying, "Really?" "How amazing!" "There are places like this?"...
Youqing felt very happy, experiencing the relaxed and pleasant feeling of chatting with a good friend.
After she finished speaking, it was Sangzhu and Chengying's turn to speak. The two of them had been in the palace all along, so they could only talk about things in the palace. Although Youqing did not plan to return to the palace, she did not mind listening to them talk about these things.
---Aside---
The two originally planned to write some plots like "a thunderbolt striking the earth" or "three days and three nights" when they met, but they were afraid of being censored, so they decided against it. Since Kangxi had already been holding back for several years, he didn't care about a day or two. Let's take it slow.
