Chapter Ninety-Eight: Overboard
"Look at this day, I'm afraid it's going to rain." Li Xuan said. "Greet the Queen Mother, remember to come back early, don't forget the time again."
"Got it." Xi Yan answered while changing Li Xuan's clothes. "People are not children, they can't be lost." She hid her lips and chuckled, her big black and white eyes full of mischievousness.
He didn't feel his heart fluttering, hugged her and kissed her on the sideburns, and then said, "I may be back later today." Obedient at home, huh? β
"Okay." She nodded obediently.
He thought for a moment and instructed, "Don'tβ"
"You are not allowed to think wildly, you are not allowed to eat cold things, and you are not allowed to read books for so long," Xi Yan wrenched his fingers, the same, and said with his head in the head, "Does the prince have anything else to command?" She asked, tilting her head.
"It's gone." He smiled helplessly. "You've got to do it all."
"Don't worry, the slave and maid will obey the order." She smiled and playfully blessed him.
Li Xuan's face sank, but when he saw her sweet smile, he couldn't say anything.
Slave, slave! He hated these two words, but what could he do!
"Let's go, I'll send you there." Letting go of the bitterness in his heart, he smiled gently.

"I want to walk around alone, I don't have to send it." Yun Heng commanded lightly.
"Yes, Lord Belle, please go slowly." The father-in-law said, respectfully handed the umbrella to Yun Heng, saluted and went back to his life.
Yun Heng looked up.
The sky was slightly dark, but the originally sultry hot wind carried a chill, and it was really going to rain.
There are not many people walking on this road, but the scenery is the best, but he has no intention of appreciating it, but he is a little worried about his wife who is far away in the capital.
Hey, what is he thinking! That heartless woman, even if the sky falls, will only be used as a quilt cover!
At this time, the lotus flowers in the pond were in full bloom, and he couldn't help but think to himself: Mingzhu said that she likes lotus flowers the most, and if she can follow this time, she can follow - phew! Who wants that to like it or not!
He was cursing himself in his heart, but he saw a corner of his wet clothes peeking out of the grass.
I don't know which little palace maid has been punished, and it is indeed not easy to be an errand in the palace.
He was thinking wildly, and the little palace maid seemed to hear that someone was coming, and shrank back in a panic, trying to hide herself.
He glanced at it subconsciously.
"Xiyan?!" Yun Heng was suddenly shocked, and walked forward quickly, "Why are you here?" β
Xiyan's thin body curled up in a ball, and when she saw someone coming, she couldn't help but widen her eyes in horror, "Brother Yunheng......" Seeing that it was him, she was immediately relieved.
"What's wrong with you? How the clothes are soaking wet! He crouched down and asked distressed and anxious.
"I ......" Xiyan choked up, wiped a handful of tears from her face, and smiled reluctantly, "I just ...... Careless...... Fell into the pool......"
"Accidentally?" He frowned, his tone visibly disbelieving. If you really don't check and slip on it for a while, how can your clothes get wet like this!
"Hmm......" Xiyan lowered his head, not daring to look at him. It was careless......"
Yun Heng's eyes sank, "Someone pushed you, didn't he?" β
"No, no, it's really me who accidentally ...... myself," Xiyan explained anxiously, "I see that the lotus flowers are blooming beautifully, and I want to take a closer look...... Just...... will ......" She was so cold that her lips couldn't help but tremble slightly.
"Let's go, I'll send you to the Queen Mother's palace to change your clothes......" he said and was about to help her up.
"No...... No," Xiyan flashed back hurriedly, "No...... that people may see...... I ...... like this."
"It's windy these days, you have to be sick in wet clothes!" Yun Heng was angry and anxious, because of the difference between men and women, but he didn't dare to move.
"Again...... Wait a little longer......" Xiyan said tremblingly, "blow it in a moment...... Blow dry...... Just ......"
"What stupid are you doing?!" He said angrily, "It's okay if you don't go, I'll send you home!" β
"No...... I can't go back like this......" Xiyan was anxious and shook his head vigorously, "If he knew...... Yes...... Worried ......"
"You just don't care if he worries, you don't care about yourself!" The anger that had been suppressed could no longer be suppressed at this time, and Yun Heng finally couldn't help but roar, "Look what you have become!" If your clothes don't dry, you won't go back! β
Xiyan looked up at him with teary eyes and bit her lip.
"I ......" Yun Heng realized that he was out of shape, "Xiyan, I don't want to blame you, but you ......"
"I know...... I know you're all for my good......" Her eyes flashed with tears, but she still forced herself to laugh, "Brother Yunheng, don't ...... Worried, I'm fine...... Wait for me in a little while...... When my clothes are dry, I'll ......."
Before Xiyan finished speaking, bursts of thunder were already ringing in his ears, and the raindrops of beans crackled and smashed down, which made Yun Heng feel that even his heart was smashed. He grabbed the sunset on the ground. "Don't worry about him now! If Li Xuan asks, you just have to say that it is wet! He couldn't help but hold up an umbrella for her, "Let's go, I'll take you home." β
Xiyan was so cold that her whole body stiffened, and her legs almost fell back to the ground when she was weak. Yun Heng couldn't, so he had to hold an umbrella in one hand and help her with the other, and finally let go when she regained some spirit and was able to walk by herself.
"Brother Yunheng......" The two walked silently for a while before hearing Xiyan ask, "You...... How did it come? "He was not among the followers of the emperor's trip to Chengde, but I don't know why he appeared here at this time.
"The emperor has another errand for me." He replied simply.
She let out a soft "oh", and after a while, she said timidly, "Brother Yunheng...... You...... Can...... Can...... Don't tell Li Xuan......"
He glanced at her hatefully, but met her pleading gaze. My heart couldn't help but soften.
"I ......know this in my heart," he thought about it, and still asked unwillingly, "You sue me, are they bullying you?" β
Xiyan just shook her head desperately, and tears fell again.
So, don't ask anything anymore.
How could a side room without the protection of the family be treated like it, and how could he not know?
Originally, the two people who were childhood sweethearts and even almost had to stay together for a lifetime walked side by side at this time, and there was no more word.
Is it pathetic? Lamentable.
Heartache? Pain.
Especially seeing that she was so desperate and helpless, she was still begging him not to sue SΓΉ Li Xuan, how could he not complain, how could he not hate?
Since you married her, why can't you protect her!
He hates Li Xuan, and he hates himself even more for being incompetent!
But this is fate, you have to bear it!
She was like that, and so was he!
