until the next day.

Lin Xilan's wound healed a little.

She fell into a deep sleep.

Then, Shi Shiran woke up, and before he opened his eyes, he was already held in someone's arms.

Ok?

By the time Lin Xilan came to her senses, she was already in the carriage.

The interior of the Regent's Palace's carriage was decorated extremely luxuriously, with every detail revealing the luxury and refinement of the nobility.

The seats in the carriage are large and comfortable, covered with soft velvet that feels delicate to the touch.

Lin Xilan leaned against the soft cushion, her big watery eyes staring at Beichen Yuan motionlessly, her eyes full of doubt.

Beichen Yuan's voice sounded.

"Xiao Wuchen's wooden house is too simple, it's not conducive to your recovery."

"So, I am taking you back to the Regent's Palace now. If you have any objections, you are not allowed to say them now!"

Ok……

The man's voice seemed to be right beside her ear, but it was no longer as cold as before. Instead, it was gentler than ever before, which made Lin Xilan shudder.

Beichen Yuan is so gentle?

Lin Xilan instinctively wanted to ask: Your Highness the Regent, are you having a seizure?

but--

Then I thought about it.

She was injured because of Beichen Yuan, so it was only natural for him to be nicer to her!

So she lay down lazily.

Accept the other party's kindness calmly.

Lin Xilan had been eager to leave Xiao Wuchen's shabby wooden house, hadn't she? She had lost a lot of weight drinking porridge there... Going to the Regent's Mansion to recuperate was exactly what she wanted!

"His Royal Highness the Regent..."

She lay lazily, her voice lazy, and even stretched out a hand.

"My shoulders are sore, please give me a massage."

Beichen Yuan looked at the hand handed to him, was silent for a moment, but still slowly took it and began to massage it carefully.

"I just woke up and came to look for you. I have been looking for you at the bottom of the cliff for several days."

"Ah."

"You said that the person who ordered the assassination was Jiang Mingzhu. I believe you and have already put her in jail. You will see her executed soon."

"Um……"

"I have said so much, don't you have anything to say?"

After getting perfunctory "hmm" responses twice in a row, Beichen Yuan finally couldn't help it and used a little more force.

Feeling the other party's displeasure, Lin Xilan immediately opened her eyes and looked at Beichen Yuan in confusion.

"Then what do you want me to say? Aren't these your responsibilities? I thought you almost died, and it was your job to handle these things. Do you want me to do it?"

"Lin Xilan!"

"Um……"

Beichen Yuan felt a lump in his throat and wanted to refute, but he seemed to have no idea where to do so.

The most important thing is... he still can't bear to do anything to the woman in front of him!

then.

He could only keep a gloomy face.

"I know you are hurt, so I will do my best to compensate you."

"but--"

He pursed his lips.

His voice lowered unexpectedly, "You had already run away, why did you come back to save me?"

Of course I'm afraid that after you die, I'll become your ally, and then be stabbed to death by your followers and subordinates and become a Chuan Chuan Xiang!

Lin Xilan was secretly complaining in her heart.

but.

She would never say such a thing!

because.

She is not stupid!

It would do me no good to anger Beichen Yuan!

Lin Xilan coughed lightly and said perfunctorily. "After all, we are husband and wife. Husband and wife are birds of the same forest. They can't fly away when disaster strikes! Isn't it natural for me to save you? Your Highness the Regent, you don't have to be too grateful to me. If you really want to be grateful, you can give me some more silver and knock me out."

"As for quarrels... every couple quarrels. A quarrel between husband and wife is just a matter of quarreling at the head of the bed and reconciling at the foot of the bed. Your Highness the Regent, you don't have to mind it too much."

"Besides, it's been so long since we started arguing... Your Highness, you're not still holding a grudge against me, are you?"

Lin Xilan was eloquent and looked at the other person with a beautiful smile and a sincere face.

Is that so?

Are they a couple?

If this is the case……

Beichen Yuan was slightly stunned, and the slightly red phoenix eyes finally slowly faded away.

If that was the case, what reason did he have to blame his wife!

Beichen Yuan glanced at Lin Xilan and said, "This king understands."

Lin Xilan's mouth twitched.

You know what!

That's all her nonsense!

However, Beichen Yuan obviously took it seriously. He opened the curtain of the sedan chair and said coldly to the driver outside, "Go to the execution ground."

where to go?

where to go?

execution ground……

Lin Xilan's eyes immediately became alert.

"Beichen Yuan, why are you taking me to the execution ground?"

Beichen Yuan smiled and suddenly leaned close to the other person's ear and said, "I think that since you are such a petty person, you will definitely not forgive the culprit who harmed you. I will take you to see the execution ground and let you watch the culprit being beheaded with your own eyes!"

have to say.

Beichen Yuan really understood Lin Xilan's vengeful character thoroughly.

All of a sudden.

Lin Xilan's eyes immediately lit up.

She blinked her big watery eyes.

Suddenly, the pain in my shoulders stopped, my bones stopped being sore, and my wounds were healed.

Was the chief of Mingzhu County killed?

Beichenyuan is so efficient!

Lin Xilan suddenly got up from the bed, took a breath, then looked at Beichen Yuan with great admiration and praised him.

"Your Majesty, you did a great job on this matter."

She was so angry that she had no place to vent it!

She hated the culprit so much that her teeth itched.

Is there anything in this world that can be more satisfying than seeing the two pearls being punished?

but……

Lin Xilan's wounds were too severe. Even if he was not lying on the bed, he could only rely on Beichen Yuan to stabilize his body slightly.

In the dimly lit carriage, her face was as pale as paper.

Extraordinarily conspicuous.

She lay in Beichen Yuan's arms, her shoulders swaying, almost falling into his arms, her voice weak.

"You really won't regret executing Princess Mingzhu?"

This man used to love Princess Mingzhu very much. She believed that there was no love between the two of them, but she didn't believe that they didn't have an uncle-nephew relationship over the years.

although.

They are just fake uncle and nephew!

Beichen Yuan caught her little head and put it in his arms.

His lowered eyes looked a little scattered.

"She shouldn't have done that to you, let alone taken your life."

"There are some things you can do and some things you shouldn't do. Even if she wants to kill an ordinary noble lady, she will have to pay a price. What's more, you are not an ordinary noble lady."

But it was his wife, the Regent Princess whom he married in a formal ceremony.

Lin Xilan smiled.

I couldn't tell whether she was sighing or laughing when she smiled.

"You don't care about Princess Xiao's last wish?"
