When Xie Jingxi woke up, the sky was already getting dark. She was lying on an unfamiliar bed, her body feeling exhausted and tired, but she was still in good spirits.

Seeing Xie Jingxi wake up, a smile appeared on her face. "Young Master was right on time, he said that the young lady was going to wake up, and he really woke up."

Senior Servant Chen first handed the medicine to her. "This young lady's body must be tired. This is some medicine to replenish your energy. Drink some more when it's hot and your body will be full of energy."

Xie Jingxi thanked her politely, not knowing how to address her. "Mommy, may I ask where I am?

"Don't worry little miss, the young master brought you back to cure your medicinal properties. The sun has just set."

After Xie Jingxi heard this, she hastily drank the medicine and was about to go down to the ground, "I'm really sorry to bother you, but it's time for me to go back."

When Gu Yun came in, he stared at him blankly. Only now did he gradually remember about the broken piece, and did not know if his family members were in a hurry or not. He did not know what was going on with Crown Prince's Wife.

Seeming to be able to see her worry, Gu Yun stepped forward and said: "I've already arranged everything, don't be anxious. I've also informed the Xie Family side.

As Gu Yun spoke, he forced himself to cough a few times. It was only then that Xie Jingxi noticed that he was a little wet, and her hair was also a little wet.

"Young master, why did you come out now? I'll take care of you first …"

"Nanny, I'm fine." Gu Yun interrupted her, "Go and bring me a bowl of porridge and some side dishes."

Chen mama looked at him worriedly and turned around to leave. Xie Jingxi could tell that his body wasn't feeling well, but she didn't know how to ask, so she simply lowered her head and did not speak.

Gu Yun smiled at her, "What, are you afraid of me?"

Xie Jingxi was indeed not at ease. Even though the two of them were getting married next month, they still felt a little awkward, and the more she couldn't see through him, the more she wanted to think about him.

"I can go back myself."

"Hmm? Do you walk back yourself? "

Gu Yun purposely teased her, came over and pulled her to sit down, waited for Chen mama to bring over some side dishes, and then helped her hand over a pair of chopsticks and placed them in her hands, "I also want to go back, it's good as long as it's along the way.

Once she talked about this matter, Xie Jingxi was no longer so restrained. She gave him a questioning glance, and Gu Yun continued, "As if you don't know anything about the Eastern Palace, all you have to do is say that you were drunk and slept with me. To the outside world, it was the Xie Clan who took you away, and everything else has nothing to do with you."

The more Gu Yun said this, the more doubtful Xie Jingxi was. However, she didn't ask any questions, and only followed him back after finishing the meal. Gu Yun escorted her back to the Xie Palace and entered to greet Xie Cen. Xie Cen's expression did not seem to be too good, and only exchanged a few courteous words with Gu Yun.

After Gu Yun left, Xie Cen asked: "What are you doing in the Eastern Palace?"

Xie Jingxi lowered her head: "I told father to worry, I originally could not drink, but Crown Prince's Wife's passion was too strong, and forcefully pulled me to eat a cup, I fell drunk, and then somehow got picked up by First Young Master's people, and slept for an entire afternoon before I felt better."

Xie Cen snorted, "Come with me to see your grandmother. She is currently angry, so go and advise her a little."

Xie Jingxi's heart was unsettled, she did not know what was going on in his house, and only silently followed Xie Cen into Lady Xu's house. They only saw the old lady sitting angrily at the head, and Lady Xu sitting with her head lowered.

"Grandmother, I'm back. I've made you worry."

The old lady looked at her, "It's good that you're back. If not for Young Master, you …" Forget it, just ask your mother what good things she has done. "

Xie Jingxi did not understand. Suppressing her anger, she pointed at Lady Xu and said, "You are really stupid!"

Xie Jingxi found out about the matter of the Eastern Palace from Xie Cen's words. Crown Prince's Wife had initially schemed against her, but during this period of time, a little girl came to her house to deliver a letter and told her family to send someone to receive it, but Lady Xu did not send anyone. If not for the clever girl, she would have reported the news to Gu Yun.

Even Xie Cen had scolded Lady Xu for being confused, "Crown Prince, you have ill intentions, I'll tell you about this matter. At least send a few more people after him, and even the girls and grandmothers inside know that she is here to secretly report to us. As his mother, you actually don't seem to be worried, what kind of heart is this?!"

Lady Xu refuted: "Master, how could I have known that this would happen, didn't I feel that it isn't right for Crown Prince's Wife to invite us out so early? Who knew that the crown prince was actually so preposterous, it was all my fault this time, since Third Sister has returned, it must be fortunate."

Lady Xu felt that since Xie Jingxi had returned, it was just a false alarm. Since the old lady was angry that she could understand, Xie Cen had made a big fuss out of it.

"You still have the face to say that!" Xie Cen was angered to the point of turning green, he had never thought that this virtuous and courteous lady of his, would actually have such a stone-cold heart. This matter had gradually allowed him to see the unknown Liang Bian of the Lady Xu, and say that it was impossible to not be disappointed, but due to the young man's good character, he had always tolerated her, never expecting her soft-heartedness to almost turn out to be a big mistake.

"Stay in the room and be honest with me for the next few days, don't worry about the family matters, just go back to your mother if you need anything."

The Old Madem did not even take a glance at the Lady Xu, as she pulled Xie Jingxi away. Xie Jingxi did not expect that such a thing would happen again, that someone had reported to the Lady Xu before, was he someone from the Third Princess?

With regards to Lady Xu's chilliness, Xie Jingxi had long been at a loss about what to say, but when it really came to her, she still felt a chill in her heart. If not for Gu Yun, she would probably just be an ice-cold corpse.

Qin Wanwan, half-dead, was carried back to the Qin family. The His Majesty had sent his best man, the Imperial Physician, and even after a long time, he was still able to save his life. However, it was said that after waking up, he had already gone mad, and a young miss was crippled just like that.

When Duke Qin saw that the heavens were making a ruckus in front of him, he insisted on asking for an explanation for his young lady. He himself was also worried.

But things were as they were, even though the Qin family was a troublemaker, they were destined to end up with nothing. If the lady was already like that, then what could they do even if they killed the crown prince? His Majesty didn't have any other way, he gave the Qin family's young masters a promotion, to appease them. The Qin family's movements weren't that big, but they still went to the palace to cause a scene every few days.

had already lost his chastity, his spirit was good and bad, there was no longer any possibility of him marrying anyone, thus the His Majesty decided to just send Qin Wanwan to the East Palace. Since she was already a part of the crown prince, she decided to give the Qin family some face, if the crown prince could successfully ascend the throne, Qin Wanwan would be considered a imperial concubine, it would be better than staying at home.

It was unknown whether or not the crown prince could be nurtured by the His Majesty. The Eastern Palace would send a batch of Imperial Physician s over every few days, using acupuncture and medicine, and from the looks of it, the His Majesty still planned to protect the crown prince until the worst moment. The entire Eastern Palace was relieved, and hoped for the crown prince to give birth to a son quickly.

Ever since Lady Xu had been grounded by Xie Cen, her days had been extremely depressing. The major matters of the family were decided by Old Madem, so small matters were handed over to him to take care of.

When the young miss and the young master returned, Lu Bingsheng went to Xie Cen's study to discuss the matter, so Xie Jingyi came over to take a look at the Lady Xu. The Chan Er saw that Xie Jingyi had entered the room, so she left to prepare some tea.

Lady Xu was lazily lying on the bed. When she saw Big Sis, she moved, "You're here, Young Master and child are here."

"Bingsheng went to father's room, there were some movements in the palace recently, father asked him to help me out, Rong'er was at home, I didn't bring him."

Lady Xu's expression was a little gloomy, "Bring them to me another day, the room is very lonely, your father called Young Master over, is it because of the matter with the crown prince?"

Now that she had been led through such a peaceful time by the Lady Xu, Xie Jingyi did not know what to say. She could only nod her head, "I'm not too sure about the details, but after hearing about what happened to the crown prince, the objections of the court grew stronger and stronger, many people had their plans in mind.

Speaking of this, Lady Xu felt even more bored. Xie Jingyi asked: "Mother, I've heard about everything that happened to Third Sister, you really …"

It's not like I have anything to do with you, Master wants to blame it all on me, it's really because of that old granny, I have no status in this house, and now even the Auntie Xue wants to climb on top of me.

Xie Jingyi sighed in her heart, when Lu Bingsheng came, he had told her to come over and persuade her mother a little, after all, there were only these few people in the house, and it was so noisy and awkward, but looking at her mother like this, she did not know where she was wrong, so she did not know how to advise his.

Mother, you had better apologize to Father. You probably haven't heard what kind of person the Qin family's girl was, if she had died, it would have been fine, but now, people are all crazy, both humans and ghosts. Even hearing it makes people's hearts hurt, you think that our Third Sister would be the one to suffer this pain, how can Father not be angry with your attitude?

"What kind of attitude did I have? Didn't I already recognize that I was wrong? Since it's already like this, what can I do? Forget it, don't bring up this matter again. Listening to it makes my heart hurt."

Lady Xu was a man with a high education and knowledge, but she could not afford to be confused at critical moments. A master's wife of a large family had to be timid, scheming too much, and would definitely lose out.

Xie Jingyi did not persuade her anymore, and changed the topic: "Mother, why is Chan Er in front of you now?"

"You're both not here, but only she can make me happy. It's also good to keep her to talk and relieve my boredom. What, what are you looking at that's wrong?"

It wasn't that there was anything wrong with her, but that she was completely right. This was why she was able to attract Xie Jingyi's attention, and the light that occasionally shone from this girl's eyes was not as peaceful as she looked on the surface.
