Xue Mingyue didn't think about those troublesome things, she just felt relaxed.

Watching the sunset from a distance by the creek, I started painting on the rice paper. The orange-red sunset that disappeared into the plain was as red as golden elixir. The afterglow dyed it layer by layer, and finally left the dusk mountain purple that dyed most of the sky.

After finishing the painting, I had a hearty pot meal.

Xue Mingyue suddenly felt relaxed all over. Listening to Xiao Yu constantly talking bad things about Xie Lang in her ears, she slowly narrowed her eyes, but what she was thinking about was that the base of this pot was too fragrant.

...I don’t know if I can poach Chef Li at a high price by then.

She can give him a monthly salary that is twice as high as Xie Lang's.

It would be a shame not to follow such a good cook.

"Sister Xue, are you listening to what I said?" Xiao Yu looked at her with resentful eyes.

Xue Mingyue hummed twice perfunctorily, and then asked, "What did you say?"

Xiao Yu: "!"

I’m so angry, this must be Mr. Xie’s fault!

At the same time, Xie Lang, who was missed by the two, had secretly left the paddock and escorted Tang Kun and others back to Beijing first. The clueless Xue Mingyue had just returned to the tent when she saw Liu Shen, the eunuch beside Emperor Jingping, standing at the door.

Xue Mingyue was stunned for a moment.

She looked up in confusion. Yes, this was the tent she lived in.

Perhaps seeing the confusion on her face, Liu Shen smiled softly and said: "Mrs. reward."

"It's just that this reward comes a little late. Madam, please don't be offended."

Xue Mingyue raised her eyebrows slightly, and then a look of surprise appeared on her face. She waved her hands in embarrassment and said, "How can I be surprised? It is a great honor to be rewarded by His Majesty. It's not too late for me to be happy."

"Our family knows that Madam is an honest person."

Liu Shen smiled and ordered the reward to be handed over to Liu Yun and the others.

After saying that, he still stood where he was.

Their eyes met for a moment in mid-air.

Xue Mingyue felt blessed for a moment, as if she understood something, and took the initiative: "If Eunuch Liu doesn't dislike it, how about coming in for a cup of tea?"

"We have heard from His Highness the Sixth Prince that the milk tea here is particularly sweet. Since Madam Xie has kindly invited us, we have to give it a try today." Liu Shen laughed.

He looked at Xue Mingyue with a bit of admiration.

This is comfortable talking to smart people.

Xue Mingyue just smiled, and after inviting people into the tent, she asked Liu Xing to bring out the warm milk tea on the stove, poured a cup for Liu Shen, and took a symbolic sip herself, waiting patiently for the other person to speak.

After a while, Liu Shen praised: "Mrs. Xie's milk tea is really delicious."

"Eunuch Liu is too praised."

"There are not many people as humble as you in the world."

Liu Shen said cheerfully: "Actually, we came here to send a message to Mr. Xie Hou. Mr. Xie said that he would be busy for a few days and might not be able to take care of Madam. He also said that Madam could return to Beijing with the emperor. , no need to wait for him.”

"..."

Xue Mingyue's heart suddenly moved.

She raised her eyes and met the smiling Liu Shen. Xie Lang wanted to send her a message, so how could he find Liu Shen?

I'm afraid this is not Xie Lang's intention, but the one above.

So do you want her to go back, or do you not want her to go back?

This idea was considered in her mind, and it disappeared in a blink of an eye. There was no doubt on Xue Mingyue's face. She was surprised at first, then hesitantly frowned, and then said slowly: "Then please bring a message to the Marquis for me, father-in-law. Just say that I am waiting for him to return to Beijing together."

The smile on Liu Shen's face deepened.

Seeing this, Xue Mingyue couldn't help but sigh in her heart, and showed an impeccable shy smile calmly: "I made Eunuch Liu laugh, but I thought that if I stay here, I can always help Mr. Hou..."

When she finished her sentence, Liu Shen enthusiastically helped her complete it.

"Our family understands that Madam and the Marquis have a very close relationship and it is difficult to separate them. This is true for newly married couples." Liu Shen put down the tea cup and stood up and said, "We have finished drinking the tea. It is time for our family to go back and pay homage to them." His Majesty responded."

Xue Mingyue stood up: "I'll give my father-in-law a ride."

"This road is very close, Mrs. Xie doesn't need to send her away."

Liu Shen declined and walked out.

Naturally, Xue Mingyue didn't believe what he said. Instead, she sent him to the door before stopping. She watched his back disappear into the emperor's tent before turning back to the tent. As soon as he entered, he asked Liu Yun to lower the curtain.

She fell down on the recliner as if she was boneless and sighed heavily.

This kind of false welcome and send-off is really tiring.

Liu Yun and the three of them looked at each other in confusion. Finally, Liu Xing stepped forward and beat her legs. His eyes were shining and he asked curiously: "Miss, do we really want to stay here and wait for the Marquis?"

"How come you believe me when I tell you a lie?"

Xue Mingyue thought to herself, I don't care if Xie Lang has a good life, but isn't this the reason why he wants her to stay?

She simply couldn't complain.

The identity of Madam Dingyuanhou is troublesome.

Liu Xing was dumbfounded and said in surprise: "Miss, you lied to Eunuch Liu! But our things have almost been packed, so how long will we stay?"

Xue Mingyue shook her head depressedly.

Just when she couldn't speak clearly, she suddenly remembered what Liu Shen had just said. She paused slightly and said with a subtle expression: "...Perhaps, we may have to wait until Mr. Hou returns with us."

She stayed behind to obviously cover up for Xie Lang.

Maybe he is no longer here now, but Emperor Jingping wanted to use her presence as a cover. When others saw her staying and waiting for Xie Lang, they would subconsciously think that Xie Lang was still in the camp.

Xue Mingyue fell silent.

When it comes to employing people, Emperor Jingping is indeed better.

When Xue Mingyue came back after going to the imperial guard to investigate the news in the middle of the night, Xue Mingyue knew that her guess was correct. Xie Lang was indeed no longer in the camp, and only Lian Dongshu was left.

Also disappearing were several officials who were imprisoned.

It seems that Emperor Jingping has his own arrangements.

Xue Mingyue sighed and didn't delve into the inside story. There was no way to change things anyway, so she might as well enjoy the rest of the day. After all, not many people were friends with her, so she didn't have to act all day long.

This amount will be credited to Xie Lang's account.

·

In the next few days, everyone in the camp was busy packing.

Because the imperial doctors were all guarding Princess Pingyang, Xue Mingyue no longer had to go to Dr. An every day to get her massage. She slept until she woke up naturally every day. After lunch, she went to the creek to fish or practice. Archery.

Two days later, the emperor returned to Beijing.

Just like when they arrived, the long motorcade followed the bright yellow chariot like a long dragon.

In the end, only three or two tents were left in the originally huge camp.

Xue Mingyue opened her eyes slightly, and looked at each other in confusion with Xiao Yu, who was accidentally left behind.

"...Why is Your Highness here?"

"Of course I'm accompanying you."

Xiao Yu said it very confidently.

After saying that, he secretly said: "I'm not like Mr. Xie, who only cares about his own affairs all day long and doesn't care about you. He is such an incompetent husband!"
