"Once we arrive in the capital and settle down, I will send a message to grandma!"

Xu Jining nodded and said in agreement: "My wife, this arrangement is the most appropriate!"

"Since Ning..." Song Xiang paused and said, "These things need to be done as soon as possible!"

"I'll go to Taihua Academy first, and then pick you up at Huanyanfang in the evening!"

The two walked to the door side by side. Song Xiang rode a horse and accompanied Xu Jining's carriage to the shop. He watched him go in before leaving.

...

After arriving at Taihua Academy, she went straight to the main courtyard and talked with Mr. Tan Suo until the evening before going down the mountain.

Naturally, he had no time to eat. He went to the shop to pick up Xu Jining before going to the restaurant.

Shen Yubai had been inspecting the shop all day and was planning to have dinner at his own restaurant in the evening when he ran into Song Xiang who came in with her husband.

Therefore, Xitang invited the two of them to the private room on the top floor.

As soon as Song Xiang entered, Shen Yubai stood up. He looked at Song Xiang with a tone of concern that he himself did not even realize.

"Are you feeling well?"

Her arm was stabbed by a knife, she was hit by an arrow in the back, and she fell into the water. It would be strange if she could recover in a short time.

I just kept enduring the pain.

"It's okay! Thank you for your concern!" Song Xiang and Shen Yubai greeted each other and sat down.

Shen Yubai's eyes were fixed on Song Xiang, and he was a little annoyed when he spoke: "I asked the doctors, they said that your wound has only grown a layer of skin, and the bones inside are still broken. You will need at least a year or two to recover..."

"It's fine if you don't listen to the doctor, but you didn't get the medicine in time!"

Song Xiang smiled awkwardly: "I have been too busy these days and neglected to take medicine!"

"Song Xiang! You must take good care of your body. Otherwise, you may get a serious illness and your life will be over!" Shen Yubai was filled with grief and indignation. Because he was nervous about Song Xiang, his face was a little irritable. "Do you want me to beg you?"

"Song Xiang, I don't mind bringing a doctor to serve you..."

What did Shen Yubai mean by this? What did his wife's health have to do with him?

But what he said before makes sense. It’s time for my wife to take good care of her health.

When he had made love with his wife before, he had seen the scars on her body, and they were exactly as Shen Yubai had described.

Thinking of his wife busy with housework every day, leaving home early and coming back late, his expression suddenly became bad!

"My dear wife, Master Shen is right. You can't ruin your health by taking care of household chores!"

"When we get to the capital, we'll ask a skilled doctor to check you out!"

Shen Yubai was a little confused and looked at Song Xiang: "Are you going to the capital?"

Song Xiang nodded and said, "Yes, what's wrong with that?"

After hearing Song Xiang's definite answer, Shen Yubai's expression suddenly changed, and he was silent for a long time before he recovered.

"Why didn't I hear you say that?"

Song Xiang said calmly: "I just made the decision in the past two days!"

"Mr. Shen, meeting you today saves me the trouble of looking for you. Let's say goodbye here and see you again in the future!"

Shen Yubai's face turned pale, and even the air became a little colder.

"Are you going to live in the capital permanently?"

Song Xiang was silent for a moment, and said in a somewhat distant tone: "This matter should not be asked by Master Shen, Master Shen just needs to take care of himself!"

"If there's nothing else, I'll take my husband back!"

After saying that, he took Xu Jining's hand and walked straight out of the private room.

Shen Yubai clenched his fists, his deep eyes filled with coldness. He raised his fist and slammed it hard on the table. The peach wood bracelet swayed up and down, just like his thoughts...

He stretched out his hand and pressed the peach wood bracelet, rubbing it and falling into pain.

...

"My dear wife, why are you suddenly so cold towards Mr. Shen?" Xu Jining didn't understand, as he was apparently fine just now.

Song Xiang didn't say anything, but his mind was full of thoughts. He didn't want Shen Yubai to pay too much attention to him because of saving his life, or even to have inappropriate thoughts about him.

She saved him because she was forced by the situation and out of moral obligation, not because she wanted to seek reward for her chivalrous kindness.

Due to his physical condition, Shen Yubai has already devoted a lot of energy to focusing on himself. If he continues like this, who knows what will happen and what will be difficult to resolve.

She had no romantic feelings for Shen Yubai, nor did she want to marry him, and she didn't want him to waste his time trying to make up for her, so she was eager to draw a line and make him wake up...

Thinking of this, she let out a long sigh.

After reaching the door, Song Xiang took Xu Jining's hand and walked along the street. As they walked, she said, "Mr. Shen is still unmarried. If I am too enthusiastic towards him, won't it cause criticism?"

Xu Jining blushed and said in annoyance, "That's right! My wife is really thoughtful!"

"Let's go!" Song Xiang said with her red lips, "Let's go to another restaurant to eat, and then go home after dinner!"

"it is good!"

...

On the second day, Song Xiang went to Magistrate Rong's house with gifts. Unexpectedly, Magistrate Rong seemed to have heard some news. Not only was he polite to her, he also prepared a marriage contract for her and Rong Qiuli and stamped it with the seal of Xuanyang Prefecture.

In order to settle the matter as quickly as possible, Prefect Rong called her own son and asked Rong Qiuli and Song Xiang to put their fingerprints in front of her.

Song Xiang felt the marriage contract was very hot in her hand. After giving it to Rong Qiuli, she hurriedly left the Rong Mansion, making an excuse that she had something to do at home.

In the afternoon, she went to Longhua Temple again and set the departure date with Master Wuchen.

During the time she was in Beijing, she hired several escorts from the escort agency and rented several carriages from the coachman's shop. After everything was ready, she just waited for the imperial order to go to the capital.

The next day, she took several maids and servants from the mansion, loaded all the bags and boxes into the car, and then arranged a ride before going to pick up Rong Qiuli.

Rong Qiuli seemed afraid of troubling Song Xiang, so he didn't bring much luggage, which made Song Xiang feel very guilty.

After bidding farewell to Rong's mother and father, Song Xiang returned to the gathering point.

On the way, Rong Qiuli heard that Lord Jiang, who was staying at his house, had returned to the capital to report.

Song Xiang got angry just by hearing Jiang Lan's name, let alone anything else.

When she returned to the meeting point, she found that the husbands had already sat down as she had arranged.

Xu Jining and Lu Zechuan were in one car, Wei Tingxun and Feng Mian were in one car, and Song Xiang and Rong Qiuli were in another car.

Meng Feiji didn't want to take the car, so he sat high on the horse, under the pretext of enjoying the scenery along the way.

Song Xiang let him go, but ordered him to wear a veil hat when passing through every city. Meng Feiji happily agreed.

Master Wu Chen's carriage was driving in the front, accompanied by soldiers, which made it seem unnecessary for Song Xiang to hire an escort. She had no choice but to fire the escort and follow closely behind Master Wu Chen's carriage.

Song Xiang's two maids and martial artist rode on horses, and several servants followed behind, escorting them and performing formal formalities.

The team set out in a mighty procession from outside the moat of Xuanyang Prefecture and headed towards the capital city day and night.

The convoy traveled for half a month before arriving in Kyoto.

...

Chaoxi City.

Everyone lifted the curtain of the car, looked at the tall and ancient city gate, and exclaimed in unprecedented amazement.

There was a commotion in front of the city gate, with travelers and civilians queuing up to have their household registration checked by the soldiers guarding the city.
