Chapter 0198: Back to the Palace

Fang Jue sat at the gate of the palace for a while, and Xue Bao, the housekeeper of the palace, walked out slowly, he very politely invited Fang Jue into the palace, and Ye Yunchang, who was the prince, naturally couldn't come to greet him, Ye Yunchang was also very disappointed in Fang Jue, he just coped with the task given to him by the emperor.

Hongshan heard that Fang Jue was going back to the palace, so she still went to report to Qiao Xiaoyue. Qiao Xiaoyue has always lived in the Summer Palace, Ye Ling'er persuaded Qiao Xiaoyue to move back to the original place several times, but Qiao Xiaoyue politely refused, saying that she was used to being here and didn't want to move around, but Hong Shan understood that Qiao Xiaoyue was reluctant to come here. Last time, Fang Jue made Qiao Xiaoyue so angry that she fell seriously ill again, Qiao Xiaoyue got better, Fang Jue appeared again, and Hong Shan was really worried.

Qiao Xiaoyue was playing the piano in the courtyard, when she heard that Fang Jue was coming, the hand stroking the piano suddenly pressed the strings, she looked at Hong Shan, a little unable to believe that this was true.

"I'm afraid he's already here." Hong Shan said reluctantly.

Fang Jue thought that Qiao Xiaoyue had moved away, but he heard a grumbling sound of the piano outside the door of the Summer Palace, he knew that Qiao Xiaoyue was playing, and he was hesitating to go in, but the sound of the piano stopped abruptly. Fang Jue slowly walked into the Summer Palace, and then naturally saw Qiao Xiaoyue in front of the middle of the courtyard.

The moment Qiao Xiaoyue saw Fang Jue, her eyes were as surprised as a thousand turns but a little trance, she didn't have time to guess why Fang Jue came to the palace, why she appeared in the Summer Palace, could it be ...... Qiao Xiaoyue had countless imaginary answers in her heart.

"Fang Jue visits the county lord." Fang Jue didn't care about Qiao Xiaoyue's gaze, but strode towards Qiao Xiaoyue and saluted Qiao Xiaoyue respectfully.

Qiao Xiaoyue came back from her trance at this time, she was a little caught off guard by Fang Jue's polite visit, and she realized clearly in her heart that she and Fang Jue were no longer husband and wife, and the long distance was an obstacle that could never be crossed.

Fang Jue didn't ask Qiao Xiaoyue why he hadn't moved away yet, although he had returned to the Summer Palace, he had planted an unsolvable grudge against Qiao Xiaoyue when he left Mu Dongge. Fang Jue asked Li'er and Xiao Yue to put their things back in the room where they used to live. Li'er wanted to clean it, but found that the room was spotless and there was no need to clean it at all. Because Qiao Xiaoyue asked the subordinates to clean every day, although she knew that Fang Jue would not be able to come back.

Qiao Xiaoyue looked at Fang Jue's back, and heard a burst of laughter coming from Fang Jue's room, she didn't know what Fang Jue was laughing at, but she could clearly feel a faint pain in her heart. "Are you here to punish me?"

Fang Jue tried on the clothes of his patrol officials in the room, they fit very well, Fang Jue's handsome and chic face and standard figure made him look good in everything he wore and had such a temperament.

Yang Yuting heard that Fang Jue had come to the palace, she couldn't wait to see Fang Jue, she wanted to know where Fang Jue had gone these days and how she had disappeared, and she also wanted to know how Fang Jue had figured it out and finally returned to the palace.

"Erniang, are you better?" Fang Jue respectfully saluted Yang Yuting and asked with concern.

Yang Yuting sat down slowly with the support of the maid Juan'er, and Yang Yuting's complexion was still a little bad.

"Jue'er, I'm fine, where have you been these days, why...?"

Fang Jue couldn't tell Yang Yuting about his disappearance, so he prevaricated indiscriminately. "Erniang is fine, the weather is so cold, Erniang should go back and rest early."

Although Yang Yuting was curious, she knew that Fang Jue was deliberately hiding something, so she didn't ask anymore, and after chatting briefly for a while, she pulled the topic to Fang Jue and

Qiao Xiaoyue, she thought that Fang Jue's willingness to return to Yihexuan meant that she was willing to accept Qiao Xiaoyue.

Fang Jue's attitude was very certain, it was no longer possible for him and Qiao Xiaoyue. Yang Yuting looked a little disappointed, but she didn't have the ability and energy to interfere with Fang Jue's decision.

Yang Yuting was a little helpless, she had just experienced life and death, and she didn't want to have any conflict with Fang Jue again, she was even more worried about what Fang Jue would do to Sima Xuan.

After sending Yang Yuting away, Fang Jue walked into an empty room in the courtyard with the wooden box, he gently opened the wooden box, and inside was a tablet, which was engraved with the spiritual seat of his beloved wife Mu Dongge.

Fang Jue stayed alone in the room for a long time, and he sat silently next to the tablet, like Mu Dongge by his side. Fang Jue stayed for more than an hour before he came out of the room, and then closed the door with his own hands.

The wind was whistling, the drizzle was continuous, Hong Shan had been paying attention to Fang Jue's every move, she felt that Fang Jue must have some secrets, and when Fang Jue returned to the room, Hong Shan sneaked to the door, but only saw a wooden box placed in the most conspicuous position in the room, and a guqin in front of it.

Hong Shan told Qiao Xiaoyue about her conjecture, Qiao Xiaoyue was a little impatient, but she couldn't show that she cared about Fang Jue's affairs. Qiao Xiaoyue heard that although the room Fang Jue entered had a lock, it was just hung up and could be opened easily, so Qiao Xiaoyue found a reason to let Hongshan go back to the previous yard to get some things, and she pretended to pass by the room casually. Qiao Xiaoyue stopped for a while, and her curiosity made her involuntarily take off the lock and gently push the door in.

There was an oil lamp in the room, the faint light shining on a fine wooden box, the door of the room was opened, and the oil lamp was swaying from side to side by the wind. What was in the box, Qiao Xiaoyue slowly approached, she hesitated for a while, and finally reached out to open the box.

Fang Jue had been standing at the door, he had been paying attention to Qiao Xiaoyue, he didn't expect Qiao Xiaoyue's curiosity to be so strong. Qiao Xiaoyue entered the room, and Fang Jue didn't stop her, in Fang Jue's heart, it was good for Qiao Xiaoyue to see it.

Qiao Xiaoyue gently opened the wooden box, she hadn't seen what was in the wooden box, and a thunderclap suddenly frightened Qiao Xiaoyue to hold the wooden box, and the wooden box fell to the ground. Qiao Xiaoyue looked a little panicked, and it took a while to bend down and pick up the tablet. When she took advantage of the faint candlelight to read the words on it clearly, a bolt of lightning projected Fang Jue's figure at the door on the wall, and Qiao Xiaoyue's face turned pale suddenly. Holding the spiritual position in her hand, there was a fleeting figure, Qiao Xiaoyue turned around a little frightened, she saw a tall body standing at the door, there was no light in the night, and then a burst of lightning made Qiao Xiaoyue see clearly that the person who came was Fang Jue. Before Qiao Xiaoyue had time to think, another thunderclap made Qiao Xiaoyue throw away the tablet in his hand, and then took a few steps back.

Fang Jue was not immediately angry at Qiao Xiaoyue's sudden intrusion and throwing the spiritual seat on the ground, Fang Jue slowly stepped forward, picked up the tablet, and then wiped it a few times with his sleeve, walked to Qiao Xiaoyue's side, and returned the tablet to its original place.

"The county lord has seen it, you are satisfied."

Mu Dongge's departure made Fang Jue haunted Qiao Xiaoyue for a long time, and Qiao Xiaoyue's intrusion this time made Fang Jue even more sure that Qiao Xiaoyue couldn't get out of it.

Qiao Xiaoyue was a little ashamed, she looked at Fang Jue and looked at the tablet with a solemn expression. "I... I didn't mean to... I'm sorry. ”

Fang Jue didn't care about Qiao Xiaoyue's defense. "A woman like you, I'm sorry if I don't match her, you go, I don't want to see you."

Qiao Xiaoyue looked ashamed and aggrieved, she covered her mouth and left the room quickly.
