Perhaps she is an extremely cold-hearted person and can quickly extricate herself from such pain.

Liu Qingyue sighed: "Take your time, this will take time."

The two of them sat down in the tea room. Liu Qingyue looked at her eyes and said, "Sister, are you tired?"

"It's okay. It's been a bumpy ride, but I can hold on."

She looked a little tired, but in good spirits.

Liu Qingyue said: "Okay, come and have some tea."

The view outside the window is pleasant, with colorful flowers in full bloom.

Nangong Yuan leaned against the small table with her chin propped up, her expression unusually relaxed.

"Sister, the General's Mansion has been a thorn in the eyes of others during the time you were away, but fortunately now that you have a title, they will be more restrained."

Nangong Yuan came back to his senses and said, "They are just a mob. Don't take them to heart. As long as the glory of the General's Mansion is not lost, that's all that matters."

"I feel like my sister doesn't seem to have the same sharpness as before."

"There's none?"

"It seems not. Sister shouldn't be like this."

Nangong Yuan asked: "Then what should I do?"

"I always feel that I shouldn't be so depressed. My sister wasn't like this when I saw her before."

Perhaps too many things had happened in these days and she really couldn't ignore them.

"People always change, Qingyue."

"Really."

She held her cheeks with both hands and looked at her helplessly.

"Okay, but even if my sister has changed, I still like her."

Nangong Yuan smiled a little, but couldn't help but think, could this deliberate approach be a punishment?

She was tortured by her own heart and couldn't find a home.

"How have you been lately? I haven't had time to write to you."

"Everything is fine, and we've made a lot of money. Yuehui Pavilion has opened branches now, so I'm just looking at the account books and stuff. I have a lot of free time."

Nangong Yuan said: "What about home?"

"They can't control me. Even if they want to, they don't have the ability to do so."

Hearing this, she nodded: "That's good, and...you and Gu Zian."

"Well, let's talk about this later. I don't really want to get married, so I stopped him from proposing."

"Why?"

Liu Qingyue thought for a moment and said, "I'm only seventeen now. How can I get married at such a young age? Besides, he is of noble status, and I will face many problems if I marry him. Let's talk about it later."

Anyway, she is not in a hurry. With so much money, she can do anything when the time comes.

Why do you have to marry him?

Everything is fine now, she is very satisfied.

"Just know what's going on in your mind. It's okay even if you don't get married. If you have money, you'll have someone to rely on."

If she wants to experience a different life at that time, I can provide her with some help.

"My sister is the best. She never uses that set of standards to ask me. Now, I just want to make money. The rest is not important."

Liu Qingyue has a very free and easy personality, and the same applies to her relationships.

It seems that there is no problem between her and Gu Zian, which is also good.

Nangong Yuan said: "That's fine. If you have the ability to break the shackles given by the world, you don't have to worry about it."

The two talked for a while before Liu Qingyue said, "Sister, take a rest first. I see you are really tired."

Nangong Yuan said: "Okay, I'm a little sleepy now."

She spent a lot of energy in entering the palace to deal with the emperor, and was really exhausted after all the trouble.

So I touched the pillow and fell asleep almost immediately.

········

Liu Qingyue had other things to do, so she left quickly.

When she woke up, it was dark.

"Miss, would you like something to eat?"

Nangong Yuan shook her head: "I'm not hungry, you go eat first."

She was wrapped in the quilt with only her long black hair showing. After lying there for a while, there was a slight sound from the window.

"A Yuan."

Nangong Yuan lifted the quilt and saw the man climbing in from the window.

"Why are you here? What if someone sees you at this time?"

Xiao Heyun said: "It doesn't matter. Now their attention is on the Xisha envoys. How can they care about me?"

He took a few steps forward and asked, "Are you tired?"

Nangong Yuan shook her head: "Just woke up, I'm fine."

"Your Majesty has decided to negotiate, but the price will be higher then."

Nangong Yuan leaned against the bed, wrapped in a blanket: "It's normal. If we continue to fight, we won't have the energy. An empty treasury means no money, right?"

"Do you think they'll agree?"

"It's half and half. Ding Ran is not a good guy. Even if he wants to exchange for Dalu, he will definitely not keep his promise obediently."

Xiao Heyun pondered for a moment after hearing this: "Your Majesty did not meet them today. It is obvious that he deliberately left them alone. I don't know if it will have any impact on the subsequent negotiations."

"Who cares? It's a fact that they lost the war in the Paracel Islands. They have no other choice."

Nangong Yuan looked very cold and didn't care about it at all.

"They won't surrender. I see they've been moving around recently."

"At this critical moment, is there anyone who dares to speak well of them?"

"Not necessarily. Some people have been sitting on the wrong side of the fence for too long and always think they can do it."

Nangong Yuan sneered and was speechless.

"What's wrong with your face?"

Xiao Heyun suddenly saw the blood on her chin and felt a little strange.

"Is everything okay?"

But he came over and touched it: "It's hurt."

"It may be scratched by the wind and sand. It's okay. It will be fine soon."

Xiao Heyun asked, "What if there is a scar?"

After saying that, he applied medicine to her.

He was so close that he could see the extremely fine hairs on Nangong Yuan's face.

"A Yuan."

Nangong Yuan didn't say anything, and the man gave her a tentative kiss.

Seeing that she didn't move, Xiao Heyun hugged her in his arms and kissed her again and again.

"I've been thinking about you these days, wondering if you're used to the battlefield, if you'll get hurt, and if you've taken good care of yourself."

Nangong Yuan leaned on his shoulder without saying a word.

"But now that I see you're back safely, I feel relieved."

Xiao Heyun stroked her soft hair and sighed: "Let me help you with the rest, okay?"

"I know we have a common enemy, but is what you are doing what you really want?"

Xiao Heyun was stunned for a moment and said, "Why not? I am willing to do anything, A Yuan..."

He secretly investigated a lot, but Nangong Yuan didn't know about it.

Xiao Heyun was afraid that she would be angry if he intervened rashly, so he did everything in secret.

“Why...why are you doing this?”

"Because it's you, I am willing. A Yuan treated me the same way before. I remember it all."

These words made Nangong Yuan extremely sad.

Those who approached with a purpose also made him misjudge.

"I········."
