Realizing that his sister didn't answer, Pingyang Hou raised his eyes and saw that she pursed her lips and frowned, not knowing what she was thinking.

Yu Tingwan smiled and said, "Since he has left the palace, there is no need to mention him anymore. My brother was not injured in Shanglin Garden."

"No, but there were more assassins after returning to Chang'an. They were all near misses." Yu Xiuyun breathed a sigh of relief. It should have been like this a long time ago. Don't mention your Majesty.

After chatting for half an hour, Yu Tingwan didn't say a word of provocation, and he didn't even mention the black purse.

Pingyang Hou put his heart in his stomach, looked into his sister's eyes, and said softly: "Ayan said your pulse is very stable now and you can go out for a walk."

"I just happened to be too busy a few days ago, so I took a few days off so that I could go out with you."

Yu Tingwan's eyes brightened slightly and she nodded quickly.

Early the next morning, as soon as she left the hospital, she saw her brother standing alone.

"Where's my sister-in-law?"

When Yu Xiuyun heard this, his indifferent expression instantly broke down, "She scolded me last night for not being able to get up this morning."

"Talking to you?" Yu Tingwan looked a little suspicious and glanced at his brother, "What did you do to disgrace her?"

The smile on the corner of Pingyang Hou's mouth was faltering. It didn't take long for his sister to completely switch sides.

"She said I came too late and didn't care enough about you."

Yu Xiuyun heard it last night. Xie Xuan actually wanted to scold His Majesty for showing his secrets but refused to show up. She asked Yu Tingwan to think of ways to test him, but she didn't dare and had to scold him.

"It doesn't matter, your official duties are more important." Yu Tingwan seemed to believe his brother's statement.

This house is close to the morning market, which happens every three days, and I just happened to catch it today.

"Wanwan, there is a shop selling pig skin pancakes over there." Yu Xiuyun pointed to the restaurant to the east.

"I want to eat noodles."

It happened that that restaurant also sold hot noodle soup. After Yu Tingwan sat down, while his brother stood up to talk to the store owner, he looked around and didn't know where the guard was hiding.

She sat in the corner with her back to the other diners, taking off the curtain and looking at the steaming noodle soup, when her brother's voice suddenly came to her ears.

"When I was a child, my mother would cook noodles for us on birthdays."

After Yu Xiuyun finished speaking, he saw that his sister's eyes were fogged by the heat, as if there was water flowing through them.

The corners of her mouth curled up, "The memory is still fresh."

The most unpalatable noodles she has ever tasted were the ones made by her mother and the ones made by Pei Zhi.

The noodles made by his mother always felt undercooked, and Pei Zhi was afraid that they would be overcooked.

After Yu Tingwan finished the bowl, he said he would make it for her every year from now on, which made her regret not telling the truth.

Pingyang Hou also seemed to have thought of something and laughed a few times, "My father was afraid that she would touch the spatula, so he said that it would be better to leave this kind of thing to others."

After leaving the restaurant, the road was already deserted. Yu Xiuyun chatted while walking: "Wanwan, have you ever thought about what will happen in the future?"

He coughed twice and said, "After the child is born, do you still want to live here? If you don't like it, you can tell my brother directly."

"I don't like it." Yu Tingwan lowered her eyelashes, "Brother, does he really not know that I am still alive?"

"Of course not."

Hearing his brother's decisive answer without hesitation, Yu Tingwan nodded and said: "Since he doesn't know, there is no need for me to hide in a small town all the time."

She smiled easily and said, "I want to go to Yizhou. Although I don't want to go to Sichuan, it is really comfortable there, and General Zhang and his aunt live there in seclusion."

Yu Xiuyun's face froze for a moment, and he frowned slightly and said: "Yizhou is so far away, and you are alone with your child. Even if you are wearing a curtain at all times and have a shadow guard following you, I won't worry."

Not to mention what His Majesty thinks, even Marquis Pingyang himself is opposed to his sister's idea.

"Who said I will always be single?" The woman wearing a curtain paused her steps and couldn't see her expression clearly, "I believe what my brother said. Since he doesn't know my whereabouts, when I go to Yizhou, if I meet someone I like, , you can naturally get married without any worries, and you don’t have to worry about hurting your husband.”

Marquis Pingyang seemed to have been struck by lightning, with a dazed look on his face. He had no intention of studying his sister's tone. His eloquent mouth opened and closed again, unable to say a word.

"Wanwan, you need to be careful when getting married." Yu Xiuyun's scalp was numb, and he couldn't think of His Majesty's reaction when the guard in the dark sent these words to Weiyang Palace.

"I know, I have no such plan now." Yu Tingwan's voice was a little erratic, "I mean, since he and I will never meet each other in this life, there is no need for me to stay chaste for him, alone. Live a lifetime.”

Marquis Pingyang's eyelids twitched, and he smiled and said, "That's true."

*

In the Xuanshi Hall, Chiying stood under the throne, silently stepping back a few feet than usual.

Thinking of what the Queen said yesterday, his heart beat fast and he felt a little dizzy.

The young man was about to say something when he was stopped.

"I understand." Pei Zhi lowered his eyes and saw nothing unusual. He replaced the broken pen and asked Chi Ying to retreat.

He opened a memorial, which was written by Yushi Zhongcheng. The more he looked at it, the more he felt his forehead tingling, blood rising in his chest, and the neat handwriting in Guange style before his eyes was distorted and blurred.

I don't have to keep my virginity for him...

Even though he only heard the retelling, he had not forgotten Yu Tingwan's tone and voice at all, and he could still picture her appearance when she said these words.

Running to Yizhou and marrying someone else is simply a foolish dream.

Even if Marquis Pingyang comes to the palace tomorrow and talks about flowers, he won't be able to agree to even a single sentence.

That night, on the couch in the inner room of Jiaofang Hall, a man in a black tunic knitted his long eyebrows, with cold sweat dripping from his forehead. His fingers unconsciously clenched the silk fabric that was broken into pieces in his palm, and he suddenly opened his eyes.

Pei Zhi stood up and gasped for breath. The dream was so confusing that it gave him a splitting headache. What finally settled in front of him was the image of Yu Tingwan almost fainting during the Empress Standing Ceremony.

When Marquis Pingyang heard that His Majesty agreed with the Queen to leave Sili, his eyes couldn't help but widen.

Yu Xiuyun hesitated again and again and said: "Your Majesty, I think that since the Queen has guessed the truth, she should want Your Majesty to go see her."

After being briefly shocked, Pingyang Hou slowly came back to his senses and almost figured out what his sister meant.

"She wants me to see her, to put it bluntly, why bother trying to make me angry in circles." Pei Zhi said in a calm tone, "Maybe that's what she means."

"We can leave Sili to relax in Wanwan, but we can't go to Yizhou, it's too far." He paused, veins bulging on the back of his hands, "And getting married is absolutely impossible."

After Yu Xiuyun left Weiyang Palace, he looked at Lu Yin and the fake identity document in his hand, and couldn't help but feel in a trance.

After nine days of rest, when Yu Xiuyun went to visit his sister again, he saw a familiar figure waiting at the courtyard gate from a distance. He was a little surprised and asked: "Why are you so eager today?"

Yu Tingwan silently glanced behind his brother, then his eyes fell on his hand and asked, "What is this?"

"Didn't you say you wanted to go to Yizhou last time?" Yu Xiuyun said softly: "This is a road guide, it can be used in all northern states and counties."

Marquis Pingyang lowered his eyes and said, "Yizhou is too far away, so it's better not to go there."

"Lu Yin?" Yu Tingwan took it and took a look at it. Even the name was fake. It was even so "caring" that he even took care of his unborn child.
