"So after dealing with the Liu family's affairs, I thought about bringing you to Yunzhou to see her one day," Shen Changyun lowered his eyes, "but at that time, Yunzhou had news about the real Ninth Prince, so I couldn't tell you about it, lest..."

"You thought I loved Jiang Lin at that time, so you didn't want me to get involved, for fear that I would become estranged from you and your wife because of Jiang Lin?" Li Qingqian continued.

Shen Changyun nodded gently.

Li Qingqian raised the corner of her mouth slightly, "I actually saw it when I took you to the ancestral temple that day. You seemed very calm and composed, as if I would meet my mother again. At that time, I thought you felt that everyone has to die, and after I die, I can reunite with my mother in heaven."

Shen Changyun held her hand a little harder.

Li Qingqian added: "Maybe it's more than that. Shen Changyun, you don't really want me to see my mother, do you?"

Shen Changyun's pupils shrank slightly, as if she had discovered some secret.

"Originally, in the capital, I had the best relationship with my grandmother and my two brothers. I also had my second sister, Song. You were selfish and didn't want me to have another person in my heart."

"You think that if after our wedding, my heart and eyes are full of you as my husband, that would be perfect, right? You never want me to share more of my care with other people. Shen Changyun, your love seems a little selfish."

Those dark thoughts were revealed by Qianqian without any concealment, and Shen Changyun's eyes welled up with red.

He admitted that he was such a selfish and narrow-minded person. He even hated her relatives and was reluctant to let her love other people.

The first thing he did after his rebirth was to lock her up in his yard after marriage and never let her out for the rest of her life.

Now that his thoughts were exposed, the last line of defense in Shen Changyun's heart collapsed.

Now in front of her, I really can't make up for even the slightest lie.

Yes, she grew up with me since childhood, and I am always the most relaxed in front of her. Sometimes I would intentionally or unintentionally reveal my perverted possessiveness.

How is it possible not to know the real you?

Li Qingqian couldn't help but laugh when she saw him like this. She wrapped her arms around his thin waist and put her face close to his chest.

"But I just like you, what can I do?"

Shen Changyun was slightly startled.

"Yunlang, my love for you is my business, and I also know clearly what kind of person I love, so you don't have to worry about it. However," Li Qingqian's smile was a little sinister, "It's also my business if I'm willing to spoil you, and you're not allowed to do things that make me angry again."

At this moment, Shen Changyun could only hear the sentence "I know clearly what kind of person I love", and he could not hear anything else.

But what he originally wanted was for Qianqian to love him wholeheartedly. If it was to please her, he was willing to do anything for her.

Li Qingqian smiled with satisfaction.

Perhaps Shen Changyun didn't know that for someone like her who had lacked care since childhood and had to be cautious in everything, the lover she needed most was a love-crazy person like Shen Changyun.

But Li Qingqian maliciously did not tell him about this. Whether in marriage or love, she likes to take the initiative first.

Shen Changyun wanted her to love him madly, and that was what she wanted, but Li Qingqian wanted more.

When she was happy, she thought everything Shen Changyun did was a manifestation of his love for her, but once he made her feel uncomfortable, she would turn hostile without mercy.

So Yunlang, you have to be good.

"What is that?" After sitting up from Shen Changyun's arms, Li Qingqian caught a glimpse of a black shadow flashing outside the window.

Shen Changyun looked behind him, but saw nothing.

Li Qingqian quickly stood up, put on his coat and walked out of the house, "It looks very similar to the sorcerer from the Western Regions!"

Shen Changyun followed behind and ran out.

But it seemed that the black shadow was only visible to Li Qingqian, so Shen Changyun could only follow behind her.

The shadow was moving very fast, but when it reached the other side of the lake it stayed there for a while as if guiding them there.

It was not until Shen Changyun used his Qing Kung Fu to bring Li Qingqian to the other side of the lake that the black shadow started running again.

"That's pretty good. Teach me next time?" After praising Shen Changyun, Li Qingqian pointed in the direction where the shadow disappeared and said, "Hurry, go over there."

Shen Changyun was surprised to find that when on the ground, Li Qingqian's speed was even comparable to his.

It seems that she has put a lot of effort in this area these days. He is somewhat happy for her rapid growth.

The two chased the black shadow through the streets and alleys until it was dark, when the black shadow disappeared in front of a house.

Before the black shadow disappeared, Li Qingqian quickly shot two poison needles at that place. The black shadow paused, as if it had been hit.

"Gone?" She frowned slightly. "She was poisoned by my needle. She can't run far. Let's look for her."

Shen Changyun walked up and knocked on the door, but found no one answered. He simply pushed the door open and walked in taking Li Qingqian's hand.

"The lights are still on inside, there are people here." Li Qingqian whispered to him.

Shen Changyun thought for a moment and said, "Then we can use the excuse that we are lost travelers passing by here and asking for directions."

Looking at the silhouette under the light, Li Qingqian felt somewhat familiar.

The silhouette seemed to have noticed their presence and immediately stood up to open the door.

The moment the door opened, Li Qingqian froze in place. Looking at the person in front of her, she asked in surprise, "Huai Rong?"

Jiang Huairong's calm and indifferent smile suddenly disappeared when he saw Shen Changyun beside Li Qingqian.

"It's been less than a month since I left the palace. How come you found this place so quickly?"

Jiang Huairong's eyes dimmed, and he turned sideways and said to the two of them, "I know you have something to say to me, so come in first."

Then he went into the house and turned on all the lights in the house.

After Li Qingqian entered the room, she was pulled to sit down. After looking at the surroundings, she couldn't help but ask, "Huairong, when you left the palace this time, didn't you even bring a secret guard with you?"

Jiang Huairong sat on the beauty chair and smiled bitterly, "I came out of the palace and was ready to fend for myself outside the palace. What's the point of bringing secret guards with me? That would be troublesome and boring."

Shen Changyun didn't sit down. He leaned against the wall behind Li Qingqian with his arms folded, and snorted disdainfully: "Just because Qianqian is already my prince's wife, you ran away from the palace? And you want to die outside the palace? Jiang Huairong, you are really more willful and unreasonable than when you were a child."

Li Qingqian glanced at Shen Changyun with some concern.

This time when they came out, Emperor Hexi and the Empress secretly gave them a task, which was to bring Jiang Huairong back. If this task could not be completed, regardless of what would happen to Emperor Hexi, the Empress would definitely be the first one to not let him go.

Jiang Huairong saw her expression, the light in his eyes dimmed a little, and he casually picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip.

"If I died outside the palace, wouldn't that just be what you wanted? No one would miss Qian anymore."
