On Yan Cheng's side, the couple returned in harmony.

When the girls saw this scene, they were all stunned.

Are you going to Taiyuan Palace today? Why are the prince and princess as good as nothing?

Seeing that they wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask, Xie said, "That thing is a misunderstanding, Miss Liu has already made it clear."

Her personal maid was overjoyed and blurted out: "So the prince won't take a concubine?"

After saying that, he saw Yan Cheng's expression, and he couldn't help but lower his eyes guiltily.

Xie was funny and replied: "Yes."

With her answer, the atmosphere in the yard suddenly became cheerful, and the girls all had smiles on their faces.

"What are you still standing there? Get water."

"Hey!" The maid responded happily, quickly brought water to serve the two of them to wash.

After everyone left, Yan Cheng said depressedly: "I think they all wanted to scold me before?"

While changing his clothes, Xie replied, "The prince is joking, what's wrong with that?"

"Isn't there really? Actually, you want to scold me, right?"

Xie raised his head.

Yan Cheng hugged her and smiled: "Do you believe me now?"

Xie couldn't help laughing out loud: "Yes."

Yan Cheng put her waist on her waist and whispered: "Yuanniang, I don't know if I will be as dedicated as my father, but I will definitely not do these things on your back."

Xie hugged him back, and still responded softly: "Yes."

The couple had awkwardly for two days, and this time they finally made up.

He was busy with official business, so Yan Cheng only took a break for a while before going out again.

Mrs. Xie sat in front of the window, looking at the flowers and plants in the yard while shaking her fan.

The wet nurse came over to ask for the news, and she said the matter with a vague detail of the difficult to say and only told the general story.

The wet nurse was happy for her: "The prince is really a reliable person. It's fine if it's fine, it's fine if it's fine."

Xie sighed: "I really know people and the world but not the heart. Concubine Liu looked kind on her face, and she was actually a person with such deep scheming."

The wet nurse said: "How can people in the palace be simple? There are only a few people like our princess!"

Xie nodded: "It's all like this. The princess still allowed her to stay in Taiyuan Palace, and she really showed mercy."

No matter what, it would be a great joy to not take a concubine. The wet nurse was happy and prepared to cook in person and celebrate it in the evening.

Xie responded, and watched her go out with a smile, slowly closing the smile on her face.

This matter seemed to be successfully resolved, but no one noticed it, and even Yan Cheng himself did not notice it, and there was another loophole.

Last night, Yan Cheng explained to her that there was something else he had to go to the Liu family’s grave, and this matter cannot be known at present, so he could not explain it, so he could only take Liu Xier into the door before talking about it.

Today, Liu Xier took all the blame on herself, saying that she had deceived Yan Cheng, and Yan Cheng recognized her for her reputation.

Who said the truth of the two of them? Even if they have no affair, do they still have a common secret?

When Yan Cheng came back in the evening, Xie performed as usual. The couple drank some wine, which was a little warmer than usual.

Everything seemed to be back before the incident.

On the third day, Yan Cheng walked around the door and turned into an inconspicuous alley.

Xie received a reply from the accompanying room and asked: "Who lives in that alley?"

The accompanying room replied: "Yes... Miss Liu, the princess temporarily placed her there. I heard that she will leave Beijing in a few days."

Xie nodded: "You just pretend that you don't know about this, don't tell anyone who asks."

"Little one obeys the order."

After leaving with the room, Xie sat alone for a long time.

The pomegranate trees in the yard are in their flowering season, and the pomegranate flowers are like fire, creating the summer atmosphere of the yard.

But she felt inexplicably that autumn came early.

...

"Miss Liu, the prince is here." The female guard who was temporarily transferred by Xu Yin reported.

Liu Xier showed surprise on her face, and then she saw Yan Cheng coming out of the carriage. She opened her mouth and wanted to shout something, but in the end she just gave a regular greeting: "Crown Prince."

Yan Cheng nodded and turned his head to instruct: "You all stay here."

"yes."

When the two entered the house, no one else was present, Liu Xier knelt down and cried and said, "My cousin is willing to come and see him, Xier is ashamed."

Yan Cheng sighed silently and reached out to help him: "I heard that you have been injured in your knees, so don't kneel."

Liu Xier was moved: "My cousin was so hurt by me, are you still thinking about me?"

"Didn't you regret it?" Yan Cheng said, "The princess has decided to send you away from Beijing, which means he will not blame you."

Liu Xier burst into tears and stood up while wiping her tears.

"I also said that my cousin would blame me, but I was in a dilemma for this matter. My aunt has helped me, and I disobeyed her for being unfilial, but it was unrighteous to follow her to plot against you. Later, the princess told me that the princess was generous and kind, and my aunt was confined at most in the future. If I did this, it would be a big mistake, so I would..."

After hearing her say it sincerely, Yan Cheng couldn't help feeling sad and said softly: "I understand, I don't blame you."

Liu Xier got his words and let go of the big stone in her heart.

Yan Cheng asked: "If you want to see me, is this what you mean?"

Liu Xier looked outside and was sure that those people could not hear it, so she whispered: "I want to remind my cousin."

Yan Cheng didn't understand.

"My aunt has not been kind from the beginning." Liu Xier said lightly, "When my cousin came to the capital, my aunt cared for you very much. In fact, she had other plans - she wanted to use this to distract you and make great contributions in exchange for the throne of the queen."

Yan Cheng couldn't help but be stunned. He had been feeling uncomfortable these two days. It was a fact that Concubine Liu planned to plot against him, but it was also a fact that he had taken care of him in every way before.

"Cousin, my aunt has never been a simple person." Liu Xier's voice was quiet, "Do you know she had contacts with the pseudo-Emperor? In the early years, there were Concubine Shu and Concubine De in the palace. On the surface, my aunt seemed to be indifferent to the world, but in fact she secretly colluded with the pseudo-Emperor. Later, the pseudo-Emperor was imprisoned, and my aunt thought she had taken the wrong position, so she broke off contact with the pseudo-Emperor. Fortunately, Concubine Shu and Concubine De lost power, and she became the first person in the palace, and her ambition could not be suppressed."

Some people have no ambitions, but there is no chance. Once they have the opportunity, the wind will help the fire and it will be out of control.

"When you came to the capital, she saw the opportunity and planned to reveal her life experience to you so that she could distract you, your mother, son and brother, and cause Guanzhong to fall into civil strife. Yan was a big trouble in the late emperor. If she could make such a contribution, it would be impossible for her aunt to be the queen. Unfortunately, she really didn't have this life. The fake emperor quickly seized the palace and usurped the throne, forcing us to escape."

Yan Cheng's brows became tighter and tighter. In addition to being angry, he felt even more indescribable grievances in his heart.

The Liu family has been confiscated by the pseudo-emperor, and the only legitimate concubine Liu and Liu Xier are left. Why are his blood relatives so unbearable?

"Am I really the grandson of Liu?" Yan Cheng couldn't help asking, "Is she lying to me even in this matter?"

Unfortunately, he was disappointed, and Liu Xier nodded: "Cousin, you are really. The only thing that my aunt didn't lie to you is this."
