962 Good Intention (1)
Xie Jingxing left.
Shen Miao sat alone at the table. Jingzhe walked in. Just now, the two people inside did not deliberately lower their voices, so she heard every word. She said nervously, “Madam, you’re too cold to His Highness.”
Shen Miao did not speak. Jingzhe continued, “Before Madam married His Highness, you treated His Highness better than now. These days, it seems like you are deliberately avoiding him. People who are sick are especially sensitive, especially His Highness, who escaped death this time. If you don’t show concerns about His Highness, he will inevitably feel sad. When you go and talk to him for a while tomorrow, he should be fine. Madam, don’t worry.”
Shen Miao said, “I understand. You can leave.”
Only then did Jingzhe leave.
After Jingzhe left, Shen Miao pressed her forehead. In all fairness, Xie Jingxing was innocent. The sentence “Actually, from the beginning to the end, you never liked me, right?” made her shiver.
Shen Miao could no longer remember when she fell in love with Xie Jingxing. Perhaps it was when he saved her life at Lake Wanli, or perhaps it was when he took off his mask in front of Princess Rong Xin, or perhaps it was on the day of the wedding when he reached out a hand to her on the horseback, or perhaps it was way earlier than that.
The feeling of being in love was too alien to her. In her previous life, she had only been in love with Fu Xiuyi, and the price she paid was heavy. After learning from the previous lesson, she did not dare to love anyone rashly. Even if she wanted to learn to love again, she was still very careful and calculated the gains and losses. However, Xie Jingxing was different. He was generous in giving his love. What the two of them contributed to make this marriage happening was not equal. However, Shen Miao thought that she had also done everything she could.
Now, because she was in love with Xie Jingxing, she couldn’t deal with Consort Mei without scruples. Instead, she had to take Xie Jingxing into consideration.
As for Xie Jingxing? He was probably extremely disappointed in her.
She sat at the table. The herb that she had obtained from the Daoist priest was locked in a box and was casually thrown to the side. Because no one cleaned it these days, it was covered in a thin layer of dust.
In the next few days, Prince Rui’s mansion was quite desolate.
Seeing that Xie Jingxing’s poison had almost been removed, Gao Yang took Luo Tan somewhere.
Madam Ji and Ji Yushu also returned to the Ji mansion. As long as Xie Jingxing was fine, there was no point in them staying in Prince Yu’s mansion.
For some reason, Pei Lang seemed to have caught a cold, so he rested in his room and did not go out.
Therefore, Shen Miao was suddenly left alone. The servants of Prince Rui’s mansion could also tell that Xie Jingxing and Shen Miao seemed to be having a quarrel. For a moment, everyone in Prince Rui was on tenterhooks, and the atmosphere was even more tense than when Xie Jingxing was unconscious.
At this moment, someone from the Ye family came to pick up Ye Mei and Ye Ke.
The Ye family seemed to know that Shen Miao did not like Ye Mei and Ye Ke. From the beginning to the end, they did not mention this to Shen Miao.
