The blackened marquis insists that the husband should be more valuable than the son!

Xue Mingyue got the news from Xie Lang.

Also brought with it was the news that the second prince Xiao Duo was demoted to a commoner by Emperor Jingping and that Tang Kun would be executed on a certain day. Xie Lang finally found the long-held prisoner in a certain courtyard under the second prince's name. 'Xue Mingyue'.

"..."

Xue Mingyue secretly clenched her fists and said expressionlessly: "So the Marquis asked you to come here to take me back to Beijing?"

Xijiang lowered his head and said, "Yes, madam."

"The second prince has been executed, and all the details of what he did have been submitted to His Majesty's desk. After learning that the second prince imprisoned you in order to coerce the Marquis, I specifically ordered the Marquis to bring you to the palace immediately for an audience."

Why did you summon her to the palace?

Xue Mingyue was completely confused and found that she could not understand Emperor Jingping's thoughts at all.

It stands to reason that 'she' has been imprisoned for such a long time. After being brought back to the capital, she should return to the Marquis' Mansion to rest for a few days before entering the palace to pay homage to His Majesty. He clearly wanted to see if she was really imprisoned, right?

Lou Zhizhang shook his head and said directly: "Your Majesty is testing the Marquis."

Xijiang didn't respond and still lowered his head.

If she hadn't still been suspicious of Dingyuan Hou, she would not have been allowed to go to the palace to see her after returning to the capital. She was not even given a break. Anyone could see that something was wrong.

This may be from the emperor's temptation to him.

It decided whether Xie Lang could become the emperor's confidant and eagle dog.

Xue Mingyue just felt baffled, but fortunately her grandfather taught her many ways to deal with Emperor Jingping these days. She took a deep breath, turned around and told Liuyun Liuxing to pick up the prepared luggage.

After passing the test of Emperor Jingping, she moved to Zhuangzi again on the pretext of visiting her grandfather.

After all, all her winter supplies were in this hot spring village, and she didn't want to end up spending the winter with Xie Lang in the capital.

And when that time comes, it will really be time to make peace with Xie Lang.

Xue Mingyue and others followed Xijiang by carriage to the other courtyard, where they boarded the luxurious carriage he brought specially from Dingyuan Marquis Mansion. On the way, they met Xie Lang, who happened to come from the capital to pick her up.

The car curtain was suddenly opened, and Xie Lang's handsome face came into view.

Xue Mingyue was still in a daze when she first saw him. She and Xie Lang hadn't seen each other since the free clinic ended. He was busy dealing with the drug-related matter, while she was busy moving secretly.

Yes, even the frequency of writing letters has decreased.

Just as Xue Mingyue was about to speak, Xie Lang suddenly stepped forward and hugged her into his arms: "?!"

The next moment, his deliberately low voice rang in his ears: "Shh, there are His Majesty's people outside, please cooperate with me in crying."

"..."

Xue Mingyue's heart suddenly sank, and she subconsciously glanced outside.

What my grandfather said before leaving came to mind, 'Your Majesty is testing the Marquis'.

If she didn't cooperate well at this moment, I'm afraid all the anonymity and planning during this period would be in vain. She gritted her teeth and pinched the soft flesh of her waist with her hands cruelly.

Tears welled up in his eyes instantly.

"Uh-huh, Lord Hou, why did you come here? I was almost scared to death... At that time, the second prince's people used your name to pick me up. I believed it, but I didn't expect that I would almost not see you, Lord Hou... "

Xue Mingyue grimaced in pain, but this did not stop her from crying.

Xie Lang's eyes widened slightly. He didn't expect that she would be so cruel to him. He couldn't help but laugh or cry. He quickly put his hand on her waist and wanted to rub it for her. "Pa-" and was slapped away by Xue Mingyue. .

Xue Mingyue glared at him, and then continued to cry at the top of her lungs.

Not only did she cry, she cried in a distinct way. Even Xie Lang was so solemn, which showed that people from outside were very smart, so they couldn't be perfunctory. There was more fear and fear in the first cry, which was venting at this time.

Crying later will turn into cries of grievance and sobbing.

She is already busy enough, and this person actually wants to interrupt her performance?

Xie Lang almost laughed out loud when he saw her expression of 'Why are you so ignorant'? He tried his best to suppress the raised corners of his lips and coaxed her cooperatively: "I'm sorry, it's all my fault. Let me You’ve suffered for so long.”

"But don't worry, your kidnapper has been killed. Don't be afraid."

The two acted together.

Xue Mingyue, who had been prepared for a long time, asked Liu Yun to take out the ginger and onions, put them under his eyes and smoke them. His light-colored eyes instantly turned red, and tears flowed endlessly.

In the carriage, one was crying and the other was coaxing.

Outside the carriage, Liu Baoquan didn't feel like he was being left alone at all. On the contrary, after hearing Xue Mingyue's cry change from howling to sobbing, he couldn't help but wipe the corners of his eyes with his sleeve.

Liu Baoquan turned to the people around him and said, "Mrs. Hou is really suffering this time. It's really touching."

Xijiang had no expression on his face and looked at him with a pair of dead fish eyes.

"The Marquis and his wife must have a lot to say after not seeing each other for so long, so we won't take the blame for it," Liu Baoquan said again, "But His Majesty is still waiting to see Madam. How can this be good? .”

"Eunuch Liu might as well wait a little longer. The Marquis has his own discretion."

"Our family is also worried about Madam. What if Madam gets too excited when she sees the Marquis and accidentally starts crying and faints?"

Liu Baoquan's face was full of worry: "Why don't you let the imperial doctor take a look at your wife first?"

Xijiang glanced at the imperial physician behind him who was carrying a medical box.

He shrugged, looked at Liu Baoquan with a strange look, and said bluntly: "I also know that what Mr. Liu said is true, but only my wife can persuade the marquis, and there is nothing I can do."

What I mean is, if you have the ability, you can do it yourself.

Liu Baoquan's mouth twitched.

Just as he was about to say something else, he saw someone lift the curtain of the carriage, and two maids came down. Liu Baoquan had an impression of the two of them, and they followed Xue Mingyue during the autumn hunting paddock.

The man who looked more steady said: "Master Marquis said to repair the situation in place for half an hour."

"..."

After half an hour, all the required confessions were finished, and the day lily was cold.

His Majesty told him to keep an eye on the Marquis.

Liu Baoquan didn't care about being reserved at this moment. He waved the dust and walked straight forward. As a result, he had just taken two steps when the surrounding soldiers suddenly showed their weapons and surrounded him.

Xijiang stood firmly in front of Liu Baoquan.

He said in an apologetic tone: "I know that Eunuch Liu is anxious to complete the order given by His Majesty, but my Marquis and his wife have not seen each other for a long time. You have also seen the appearance of the Marquis during this period. If he is caught again at this time, Excuse me, I’m not sure what you’ll do…”

Liu Baoquan paused slightly, wondering: "But that is His Majesty's order."

Xijiang stepped forward and put a bag of gold into his hand under the cover of his body.

"Please, Eunuch Liu, be accommodating. My Marquis just wants my wife not to be afraid. It will be over in half an hour."

Liu Baoquan secretly weighed the bag of gold.

Narrowing his eyes slightly: "Well, the Marquis and his wife are deeply in love with each other. It's really not easy to disturb our family."
