If you don’t cherish the love we wear quickly, why are you crying if you change your mind?

When Chen Shaoyuan woke up, the empress dowager was sitting in the main hall and told him everything that happened in the Weiyang Palace.

The queen died, leaving only a skeleton. Next to the skeleton was a jade bracelet she had always worn, but it had been broken by the fire.

The queen's maids Zhiqing and Zhiqiao also died in the fire. There was also Xu Yunqi in the palace who should have been poisoned to death.

The Queen Mother didn't understand why Xu Yunqi was not poisoned to death and appeared in the Queen's bedroom.

She didn't know that Chen Shaoyuan knew very well that he was the one who gave Xu Yunqi to Huo Changling.

Chen Shaoyuan couldn't accept the fact that Jiang Miao was dead. He roared, "Let Huo Changling come to see me!"

Then he waved everyone away, even the Queen Mother was asked to leave.

Huo Changling was tied up with cloth strips all over his body and was carried in.

He looked completely dejected and didn't even greet Chen Shaoyuan when he saw him.

Chen Shaoyuan stared at him, his eyes bursting with anger.

"Why is Xu Yunqi in the palace?"

Huo Changling's gray eyes finally showed some emotion. "I gave her some money and let her live her life."

"Don't you love her?"

"I don't love her anymore."

"Then who do you love? My queen?!" Chen Shaoyuan's eyes were cold.

Huo Changling only asked, "Where is she?"

"She's dead!"

"If you hadn't let that bitch Xu Yunqi go, would the Queen have died in the sea of ​​fire?!"

Chen Shaoyuan got up from the bed, kicked Huo Changling a few times, and then walked out without even putting on his shoes.

He didn't believe that Jiang Miao was dead.

That woman loved him so much, how could she leave him!

She is skilled in martial arts, and Xu Yunqi is no match for her at all. The person who died in there must not be her!

When Chen Shaoyuan went to Weiyang Palace again, he saw a palace that had been burned by fire, and the bones had not been cleared out without his permission.

He picked up a broken jade bracelet that was burned next to one of the skeletons. He remembered that this jade bracelet was the one he gave to Jiang Miao on his wedding day.

It's broken now.

"This is not the queen," Chen Shaoyuan said with a tremor in his voice.

"How could Xiao Miao die?"

Chen Shaoyuan slumped on the ground, his clothes were covered in filth, and he looked extremely disheveled.

He recalled the first time he saw Jiang Miao, the brightly dressed little girl in red, who made him feel stunning at first sight, but he never said anything. Later, he was blinded by power and only wanted to climb to that position, thinking that Jiang Miao was just a chess piece in his hand.

He numbed himself and pretended not to care, so that he could kill the Jiang family.

At this moment, he felt abandoned.

What's the point of the throne he worked so hard to get if there is no one around to share it with him?

Huo Changling came over, regardless of the injuries on his body, and looked at the bones on the ground quietly, his eyes instantly red.

If he hadn't saved the wrong person, would Xiao Miao still be alive?

It's just that no one knows the answer.

Jiang Miao and Wei Jinchu had already taken a horse-drawn carriage to the Sumoshui area in the northeast to provide disaster relief. In the carriage, she listened to the system report on the situation in the palace.

Xu Yunqi died before Huo Changling rescued her. It was her own fault.

Zhiqing had done a lot of harm to the original owner in her previous life. This time she was burned to death in the fire, perhaps because she had done too many evil things, and God was taking her away.

Zhiqiao was arranged to leave the palace early in the morning, and Jiang Miao did not take her with him. After all, the fewer people knew about what he was going to do next, the better.

"What are you thinking about?" Wei Jinchu squeezed her hand.

Jiang Miao leaned her head on his shoulder and said, "I was thinking, I'm finally free again."

The carriage swayed, which was particularly hypnotic. Jiang Miao started yawning after a while.

Wei Jinchu held her in his arms and said, "Go to sleep. I'll call you when we get to the post station."

Jiang Miao didn't sleep very soundly. He moved in his arms for a while, mumbling something in his sleep.

Wei Jinchu moved closer curiously, only to hear her humming and groaning, "I'm not a vixen!"

He pinched her ear amusingly and whispered, "Miaomiao is only my vixen."

Jiang Miao's ears were pinched, and he woke up immediately. He raised his head and yelled at Wei Jinchu, "You pulled my ears?"

"It was just a touch." Wei Jinchu remained serious and continued to talk to her.

"I sent someone to send Zhiqiao to Fufeng County, and General Jiang also knew that you had left the palace."

Jiang Miao understood the important matter but did not forget to tease him. They could tease him for a while now as they were on the road, but there would be no time when they arrived at the disaster area.

Wei Jinchu found her unwillingness to give up more and more amusing. He coughed lightly and soothed her, "But does it hurt?"

"It hurts a lot." Jiang Miao glared at him.

Wei Jinchu held her in his arms and touched her earlobe with his thin lips. "I'll give it to you when we get to the post station tonight."

"No." Jiang Miao would not be fooled. A man's words are generally not counted after having sex. Who knows what he wants to do.

The roads were slippery due to the rain, so it was not suitable for them to travel at night. They went to the post station to rest for a night and then rushed to the disaster area after daybreak.

When he arrived at the post station, Jiang Miao was already yawning.

As soon as he entered the simple room, Wei Jinchu followed in with hot water.

After a simple wash, Jiang Miao felt sleepy and lay down on the couch.

Wei Jinchu came over to her as soon as he got on the bed, and put his arm around her waist, "Miaomiao, do you love me the most?"

"You're so hot, don't get close to me." Jiang Miao pushed him away. The conditions here were not as good as in the city. In winter, they could use ice to cool down the room.

Wei Jinchu stepped back a little, still holding her in his arms, "When are we going to get married?"

Jiang Miao felt that he was really outrageous. He just asked her whether she loved him or not, and now he was asking about marriage.

She raised an eyebrow, "When did you propose to me?"

Wei Jinchu's face was close to hers, "Beg me when we get back."

Jiang Miao's eyes curved slightly, "I didn't say I'll marry you if you ask me to. It depends on your sincerity."

Wei Jinchu chuckled softly, leaned over and kissed her cheek, "Okay."

"It's great to meet Miaomiao." The man's usual cold voice was filled with a hint of expectation, and his hot breath followed.

Jiang Miao was kissed by him on the lips for a long time. She pushed Wei Jinchu away and said, "You just bully me."

"Wait until you marry me, and I'll tell you what bullying is." Wei Jinchu pinched her waist meaningfully, his eyes darkening, "Go to sleep, we have to travel tomorrow."

……

As soon as Prime Minister Wei left the capital, Chen Shaoyuan, who had been immersed in grief over the queen being burned to death, cheered up and immediately summoned Uncle Cao to discuss important matters.

Wanting to kill Wei Jinchu or take back the power from Wei Jinchu, Cao Guojiu still insisted on the idea of ​​cheating in the imperial examination.

Chen Shaoyuan was shaken this time, not because he was persuaded by Cao Guojiu's eloquence, but because he was eager to kill Wei Jinchu.

Chen Shaoyuan's eyes were gloomy. "To be on the safe side, send a group of assassins out to prevent Wei Jinchu from returning alive from the disaster area."

"I'll leave these two matters to you."

Cao Guojiu was overjoyed, "I will definitely live up to your majesty's trust."

Chen Shaoyuan left the Qianqing Palace and unknowingly walked to the Weiyang Palace.

The Weiyang Palace has been cleaned up and will be rebuilt soon to restore it to its original state.

The Weiyang Palace today is a dead house, empty, especially the sleeping quarters.

Chen Shaoyuan looked at the place where the queen used to live, and every moment he spent with her began to emerge in his mind.
