Gu Yun had to go to the Ministry of Justice to take charge in a few days. No matter how reluctant Xie Jingxi was, he still had to return to the Marquis Mansion. The two of them had already stayed in the manor for half a month;

Gu Yun had been nourishing him for a few days, and his body was fine. Other than being proficient in medicine, Gu Yun seemed to be accustomed to being injured and sick, and his recovery ability was beyond Xie Jingxi's imagination. When she was still on tenterhooks for him, he was already able to act like a hoodlum without any hindrance.

Probably because they were leaving today, Xie Jingxi didn't think too much of it while lying on the bed. Because the courtyard was huge, their bedroom was also especially big.

After Gu Yun finished changing his clothes, he turned around to look. She was still not willing to come out from the blanket, so he went over and pulled her face out from the blanket.

In truth, Xie Jingxi was half shy. Last night, the two of them fought all the way until the third fragment of the night, so how could this bastard Gu Yun possibly be someone who had just recovered from his injuries? After all, he did not drink any water from the soup a few days ago, and his stamina was extremely good, so much that she could no longer stand up straight.

Xie Jingxi finally knew what it felt like to be chopped into pieces, but now that she was lying on the bed and didn't have any strength left, Gu Yun found some clothes to help her put on, "If you don't have time now, we won't be able to make it back today.

Xie Jingxi still cared about her face at least, she grabbed her clothes and blocked her front, "Turn around quickly, or else you can help me bring back a bowl of porridge."

Gu Yun laughed and stooped down to take another bite of her shoulder. "How is it that I haven't seen you before? You're still shy after changing your clothes, didn't you want me to help you undress tonight?"

Xie Jingxi simply took off his clothes and covered her face, not wanting to bother with this shameless guy anymore. Gu Yun fished out the person, and helped her put on her clothes without saying anything, "Good wife, it's good enough to get used to it. I can see that you don't even have the strength to lift your arm, you still dare to try.

Xie Jingxi did not want to live anymore, "You're not allowed to ask! You sure are shameless! Even though you were the one who went overboard, you still blame me! "

"Fine, fine. You can't not ask, but you don't know that things like husband and wife are good for the body. If you keep feeling tired, then it's likely that you will lose more, and after a while, you won't be able to gain anything. It's not good for you."

The old wet nurse at home had actually taught him these things, it was just that Xie Jingxi had never taken it to heart. Hearing his words, she started to pay more attention, she just wanted to pay more attention in the future.

The two of them dawdled for a bit, in the end, it was night before they returned to the Marquis Mansion. Xie Jingxi had slept more during the day, but had recovered her spirits during the night, and after hearing that Fang Dai had reported everything to her at home, she also sent Ming Yu to pack up the clothes that Gu Yun was going to wear the next day.

Gu Yun leaped up to become a second stage Minister, and everyday, he needed to go to the imperial court and wake up. In the early morning assembly, he could wake up in the early morning, and even if Marquis Mansion was close to the imperial palace, he would only be able to stay in bed for an hour. If he stayed with him, Xie Jingxi would have to wake up as well, it was extremely bitter.

Gu Yun tried his best to be careful, changing his clothes outside, he gave some instructions to Fang Dai and then left hurriedly, the His Majesty was kind to him, he originally wanted him to rest for a few more days, so when he appeared today, the officials outside the palace were all surprised.

In fact, in the eyes of most court officials, Gu Yun, who took the backdoor as an air drop officer, was a bit shameful. How many years do you think a normal student would have to go through in order to get the position of president? He had only been an official for a few months, yet he had only risen a few levels. However, other than the honest and straightforward Qing Liu officials, most people still showed courtesy on the surface. Other than that, their father-in-law, Elder Xie, was still around, fawning on them one by one.

However, Xie Cen felt wronged, it was true that he went to the back door for his son-in-law, but the matter of the Minister really had nothing to do with him, he was just confused, and did not know if Gu Yun could be qualified or not, and it was fine if he did not lose face for him.

A few days ago, he was still his subordinate, but now that he was at the same level as him, he came over to ask about some things related to recuperation. Chen Du, who was standing beside them did not say much, and just nodded at Gu Yun.

In the early morning of the imperial court, the His Majesty wanted to ask for everyone's opinion on the matter regarding the event, "Everyone, who do you think should be the main examiner?"

It was obvious that he had a plan in mind, he wanted to openly test whether his subjects were of the same heart as him, and would often inadvertently look at a question, which would hide the great intentions of the higher ups. When His Majesty asked this question, everyone began to ponder the thoughts of the His Majesty.

Now that he had retired, he would probably need to find one in the cabinet. In terms of knowledge and prestige, Elder Official Xie was one of the best, but in terms of qualifications and prestige, it would probably be Elder Song. There would also be a few more scholars and Hanlin House experts that would be popular as well.

Hearing till the end, the His Majesty muttered to himself for a moment, then suddenly looked towards Gu Yun and asked: "Gu Qing, why so?"

Everyone was startled and looked towards Gu Yun at the same time. He originally wanted to mess around, but he did not expect to be called out, thinking that the His Majesty was really favored by the His Majesty, and had taken the initiative to ask for his opinion.

However, Gu Yun was not at ease at all, the His Majesty was testing him, he had gotten lucky as the Minister, in fact, the His Majesty was not too sure how much he was worth, if he was not sure, the impression points would be gone.

Xie Cen was also sweating on behalf of him, it was best if he did not drop the chain at such a crucial time, even though he was his son-in-law, he shouldn't bring it up so simply.

Who would have thought that Gu Yun would say the following: "This subject thinks that Elder Official Xie is suitable."

Xie Cen almost lost his footing, a few ministers who were not tense still laughed, he was indeed a young Marquis Mansion Lord who was not afraid at all, knowing that Elder Official Xie and you were in-laws, there was no need for him to be so direct, right?

No matter how you say it, Gu Yun is not flattering you. If you were to find an excuse, His Majesty would probably feel that you were too sly and unfaithful, and would only try to protect himself in the event of a crisis. If it was Elder Song, he would feel that you were too hypocritical, and even though you were clearly on the side of the Elder Official Xie, he still wanted to say whatever he wanted to say.

So why not be more honest, and let's just say that even if he doesn't talk about Xie Cen, the His Majesty will still have to plan for you to join Xie Cen's camp, and since Xie Cen is a well-known imperial faction, he will take the opportunity to show his loyalty to the His Majesty. Furthermore, Gu Yun had his own guesses, and most likely, the person that the His Majesty was thinking about was Xie Cen.

He had taken the left and right hand of the crown prince on the Imperial Court, so the current situation was just as well-kept silent as it could be. The His Majesty wanted to push him to the heart of the matter, and use him as a stick to stir up the mess. If Gu Yun were to bring up someone else, perhaps he would become someone who could be ignored by the His Majesty in the future.

His Majesty nodded, he did not say anything and dispersed, Gu Yun took up his new position, and went to the Ministry of Justice to not talk about it.

Xie Jingxi asked about the matter as usual in the morning, and had someone report after breakfast. It was from the young mistress of the Lu Family who had come to report. Xie Jingyi first went to Second Young Madam's room. Ever since the death of Eldest Miss, Xie Jingqi had never been in a good mood, and after she had a serious illness, he did not go out often. She was honest and no one in the family was able to make things difficult for him.

Every day, Xie Jingxi would tell the kitchen to bring the Second Young Mistress a meal separately, she was very careful with the food. Everyone in her family knew that the Second Young Mistress wrongly accused Grand Mistress of being the murderer, and all of them felt that it was really rare for the Grand Mistress to not care about the past, and they all praised her kindness and righteousness in private.

Xie Jingyi went to Second Young Madam's room to sit for a while before she entered Xie Jingxi's room. Xie Jingyi brought a few bottles of honey over, and from the looks of it, Xie Jingxi knew that these were specially made by Xie Family.

Every year, they would bring in specially made honey from the south, and then, they would add some homemade honey in. The taste was not bad, and it had once received praise from the His Majesty. Xie Jingqi loved to drink honey. Every year, her family would give her more, and she would also give this to her.

"Big Sis, if you have the time, come and talk to me. It's good that you bring something heavy, I should be the one to bring something to see you."

"You are always so polite, your sister even has something to say. Mother specifically told me to bring it here, and your family has a lot of things to do. They know you aren't free, so it doesn't matter who you look at."

When Xie Jingxi heard that it was given to him by the Lady Xu, he could not help but be taken aback.

Xie Jingyi patted her hands, "It's not your fault that you grumbled in your heart. On that day, mother was indeed a bit too much, but after all, she is still your biological mother. Mother is indeed confused, but as children, what can we do?

If it was another person persuading her, Xie Jingxi would most likely not bother with them, but Xie Jingyi was different. She was, after all, the most difficult person to be a person stuck in the middle, the Lady Xu treated Xie Jingxi coldly, but in the end, she still loved him dearly and did not treat him lightly. Hence, in her heart, the Lady Xu was different from the others.

However, when Lady Xu slapped her, Xie Jingxi thought that their relationship as mother and daughter was broken.
