However, xiaobaoshan faces the same problem.
In ancient times, there was no developed network camera. In such a big capital, it was not easy to find a place where rumors originated?
This matter, so stranded down.
That day, Qin Yilun stopped Xiao Baoshan and said he would go to have tea with him.
Xiao Baoshan agreed without thinking.
When they arrived at the teahouse, Qin Yilun asked for a pot of Longjing in the West Lake and some snacks.
While pouring tea, Qin Yilun looked at Xiao Baoshan and said, "Xiao Hou's face is uncertain. He has something on his mind."
Xiao Baoshan smiled faintly: "it's a little. As for what it is, I think Lord Qin knows a little about it."
"But because of your wife's business? Now there are rumors all over the city and all kinds of speculation, which are very unfavorable to your wife."
"I know." Xiao Baoshan said, "however, the person who spread the rumor can't be found now. Otherwise, I must let him parade in the street."
Xiao Baoshan finished and patted the table hard.
Qin Yilun smiled bitterly, Then he sighed: "Alas, I think your husband and wife have done so much for the imperial court. If it weren't for the people, you wouldn't go to Mobei and your wife wouldn't be arrested. Now someone actually uses rumors to defeat your wife. Lord Xiao, you must keep your mind steady. Don't blame your husband and don't show a trace of dislike in front of her, otherwise you will hurt your wife's heart."
"Of course I understand." Xiaobao mountain road.
Qin Yilun said again, "if I hear any rumors, I will scold them. A few days ago, a chamberlain of the household department guessed that you wanted to take a concubine. I scolded you severely at that time."
Concubine?
Xiao Baoshan's eyes suddenly cooled when he heard this.
……
During this time, ye Xiaoxian stayed at home, but even at home, she also felt that the servants at home would look at her with different eyes, making her uncomfortable.
Her mood is not gloomy.
She has fled from Mobei to the capital. Now where can she escape?
It was night, Xiao Baoshan came back, and ye Xiaoxian was lying in bed reading.
He was more enthusiastic than before. When he got home, he asked Ye Xiaoxian, "what book does ye read?"
Ye Xiaoxian only said faintly, "they are all idle books. You won't like them."
Xiao Baoshan went over, took off his coat and sat by the bed: "are you tired? Do you want to rest earlier?"
Ye Xiaoxian looked listless: "what can I be tired of staying at home every day? It's you who go to the court every day and have to manage the affairs in the court. You're tired."
Xiao Baoshan smiled again.
Seeing that he had just returned from the outside, ye Xiaoxian asked again, "haven't you washed your face and body? I'll ask Mammy to bring you a plate of water."
She put down her book and was about to get up, but Xiao Baoshan grabbed her hand and said, "I just washed it with well water in the yard."
"Wash cold well water?" She asked.
"It's all right. It's not very cold." Xiaobao mountain road.
Ye Xiaoxian ignored him and said, "then you should have a rest earlier."
She blew out the candle and lay down as usual.
During this time, they didn't make out. Every time xiaobaoshan came to hold her, she would push him away.
So, for a long time, they haven't been making out in bed.
After lying down, ye Xiaoxian turned over and faced xiaobaoshan with the back of her body.
He would sleep quietly if he were in ordinary times, but tonight, he came close and hugged her from behind.
"Leaves..." he called her gently.
Ye Xiaoxian "eh" for a moment, and then subconsciously pushed him away.
But this time it can't be pushed away.
He hugged her very tightly, and his chin rested on his shoulder: "leaf, have you heard some gossip lately?"
Ye Xiaoxian knew that he was referring to her "loss of body". She answered faintly: "yes, I've heard a lot. Can you find out who spread the rumor?"
"I can't find it yet." Xiaobao mountain road.
Ye Xiaoxian didn't care: "it's just that I can't find it out. I don't care very much. My current status is better than many people, so people outside can pass on whatever they like. No matter how much their saliva, they can't drown me. I live like this."
Xiao Baoshan said, "it's wonderful for you to think so."
Ye Xiaoxian said again, "do you think I'm dirty like those people outside?"
"I didn't!" Xiaobaoshan is very decisive.
Ye Xiaoxian then sneered: "really not? Then why haven't you touched me since you came back from Mobei?"
The night fell into a long silence.
Ye Xiaoxian turned over and looked at xiaobaoshan.
The light had gone out, and she could not see his eyes or his appearance. Therefore, some words could be said easily.
"After you rescued me in Beiqing, you still cared for me all the way, and you were not separated from me day and night. However, after we returned to the capital, we became more and more estranged. Even if we slept together, you wouldn't touch me. You know what you think in your heart. It's impossible to say that men don't mind women's innocence. You heard the rumors outside, You're starting to mind my innocence, right? Baoshan, don't deceive yourself and others. It's hard for you to bear it all the time. Why don't you admit it openly and then take a few concubines? I don't care. "
When ye Xiaoxian finished, Xiao Baoshan suddenly hugged her tightly in his arms and said, "I promised you never to take a concubine. I only have one person with you all my life. Now how can I easily change my mind?"
"Then will you injustice yourself?" Asked Ye Xiaoxian.
"I never felt wronged to be with you, and I never believed those rumors outside, even if... Even if you were really by them... You were the purest girl in my heart." Xiao Baoshan is quite sure.
"Then explain why we have been estranged during this period?" Ye Xiaoxian asked.
The night is silent again.
After waiting for a while, ye Xiaoxian smiled bitterly in the dark.
What's the explanation?
If he doesn't dislike her, he's dead.
But he's a good man. How can he fail?
She was about to turn her back to him, but after a while, the voice of xiaobaoshan came from the dark: "leaf, there is one thing I can't hide from you."
"What's up?" Asked Ye Xiaoxian.
"After you disappeared, I went to find you. Later, I was ambushed by three bears in the forest. I was lucky to save my life, but..."
