"Where have you been? Where have you been!"

After the banquet, Li Qingqian brought Shen Changyun back to the palace. After treating his wounds, she continued to cry and slap the person in front of her.

"They said you fell into an uninhabited area in Beiyuan. My people have been looking for you for almost two months, but there's no sign of you. I thought you were dead!"

Li Qingqian leaned against him, as if she wanted to vent all the grievances and worries she had experienced during this period of time through tears.

Shen Changyun held her in his arms, patted the back of her head, and comforted her softly, "Qianqian, don't cry. I'm back, right? You promised me that you would hold a grand coming-of-age ceremony for me. I have to come back no matter what."

"How dare you say that," Li Qingqian glared at him resentfully, "I've been looking for you for two months, and your birthday has already passed for two months. Now Yu Qing can come out and meet people, tell me, what have you been through during this period of time?"

When Shen Changyun heard her ask this, he wanted to change the subject, "Yes, you see, I haven't seen our daughter since I came back. Can someone bring her over to her father?"

Li Qingqian stopped him from running away and threatened: "If you don't tell me, I will banish you to the cold palace and never let you see her again."

Shen Changyun had no choice but to tell the truth: "I can't remember the details. I just heard a voice when I was almost dead, and then a light dragged me up. That's how I survived."

Li Qingqian was puzzled: "What sound?"

Shen Changyun whispered something in her ear.

"How about this, can you let me see my daughter now?" He was quite helpless.

Only then did Li Qingqian ask someone to bring Li Yuqing over.

"She just had her milk and is sleeping soundly now." Li Qingqian smiled happily and said softly.

Shen Changyun couldn't help but reach out and gently touch Li Yuqing's little face, and said softly: "So cute, exactly like you when you were a child."

"When I was a child?" She was surprised. "When I was her age, how old were you? How could you still remember it?"

Shen Changyun nodded. "When you were one year old, I was also four years old and could remember things. I even held you in my arms at that time."

Li Qingqian poked him with his elbow.

"I really did hug you," Shen Changyun said seriously, "At that time, you would cry when others hugged you, and you would only smile when I hugged you."

He was so immersed in his beautiful memories that he didn't notice Li Qingqian staring at him with a deathly gaze.

"You were so cute at that time, with your chubby face, I couldn't help but kiss you. But you burst into tears for the first time in your life, and I had never seen such a scene before. I threw you back onto the couch, and you almost fell to the ground..."

His voice became weaker and weaker. Only then did he notice Li Qingqian's gaze and swallowed guiltily.

"Humph," Li Qingqian hugged Li Yuqing and sneered at him, "You almost fell to the ground, didn't you? Then you should be sent to the cold palace for the crime of assassinating the queen."

Shen Changyun: There’s no need to say that.

After receiving a special letter, Madam Qingyu from Yunzhou decided to go to the capital with the doctor De Yungui who accompanied her.

Yun Gui said uncertainly: "Have you really decided?"

Cheng Zhaoling looked at her and said with a smile: "Qianqian has paved the way for me. Her two uncles are now in the service of the new emperor because of what she did. Even if I don't go back to the Cheng family, I will go to help my daughter and protect her things."

"There is a very busy restaurant in the capital, called Changminglou, which is her hard work. Now that Li Zhengkang has lost his power, I want to go and protect it for her."

She sighed and looked out the window, "Yun Gui, do you think Qian Qian still blames me in her heart?"

Yun Gui walked forward and sat down. "If she still resented you, how could she care about you like she does now? Look, didn't she invite you to Beiyuan to attend the little princess's full moon banquet? It's just that you didn't go."

Cheng Zhaoling felt a little lonely. "I really don't know how to face her. I always feel more guilty about her than the two older ones."

Yun Gui looked at her profile and was silent.

After an unknown amount of time, Cheng Zhaoling chuckled and said, "Forget it. Let's go to Beiyuan to visit before going to the capital."

In order to avoid being banished to the cold palace, Queen Shen Changyun tried her best to please Li Qingqian that night.

Kissing her neck one after another, Shen Changyun seemed very satisfied with his masterpiece, "My Lady, are you satisfied tonight?"

Li Qingqian couldn't help laughing, and then said: "Forget it, I will spare you the punishment of being banished to the cold palace. You will just stay by my side from now on."

When everything was silent, the ice crystals in the underground palace turned into wisps of thin smoke at a certain moment and then dissipated.

The next morning, Li Qingqian slowly opened her tired eyes, but Shen Changyun beside her was still asleep.

She suddenly heard a voice: "Qianqian, she owed you the beauty, and I'm giving it back to you."

The voice had no owner and no one knew where it came from, but Li Qingqian felt inexplicably at ease at this moment.

It was as if she was finally herself.

But after that day, she never heard that voice again.

But she thought, she didn't need to dwell on this matter anymore, just like the secret Shen Changyun told her that day:

"The voice said: Shen Changyun, she still needs you, so I let you go back."

Li Qingqian stretched lazily, hugged Shen Changyun tighter, and a happy smile spread across her face.

She whispered, "Thank you, I love you too, goodbye."
