Clear and Muddy Loss of Love

Tenderness before despair

When the contract expired, Qi Yan was released from prison.

Nangong Jingnv personally came to pick up the whole Dali Temple, from the minister of the temple to the prison guards.

Along with Nangong Jingnv came an imperial decree to release Qi Yan.

Everyone kowtowed and shouted that they would obey the imperial decree.

The Minister of Dali Temple took over the imperial decree and ordered: "Quickly invite the son-in-law out."

Jailer: "Yes."

Nangong Jingnv tilted her head to signal, and Qiuju entered the prison with the guards in her arms.

The jailer unlocked the big lock and knelt on the ground on one knee: "My son-in-law, I have ordered you to return home."

Qiu Ju slapped a blessing: "My son-in-law, your highness is coming to pick you up, put on this first, it's cold outside."

Qi Yan: "Thank you." After finishing speaking, Ren Qiuju tied a big collar for herself, walked out of the cell, and said softly to the jailer: "Thank you for the photos these days, thank you in the future."

Jailer: "Oh, my son-in-law, you are making a fool of a villain. This is what villains are supposed to do."

Seeing this scene, Qiu Ju thought to herself: Your Highness and the son-in-law really have the same heart.Your Highness did not miss a single word that the son-in-law said!

Qiu Ju took out a bulging money bag from her bosom and put it in the hands of one of the jailers: "Your Highness rewarded you."

The jailer accepted it gratefully: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness."

Qi Yan hooked the corners of her mouth, her eyes were soft, and she followed Qiu Ju out of the dungeon.

After going out the gate, the sun hurt Qi Yan's eyes, she raised her sleeve to block it, and then put it down when she gradually got used to it, but Nangong Jingnv couldn't wait, walked over quickly, and called out: "Yuanjun!"

Dali Siqing and Master looked at each other, bowed their heads and remained silent.

Although the Wei State practiced that men are superior to women, the distinction between superiority and inferiority takes precedence over the former.

In the relationship between a princess and a son-in-law, the former is respected and the latter is humble, as the saying goes: humble does not respect, it is already a great favor and honor for Her Highness Zhen Zhen to come to pick her up in person, but she did not expect to take the initiative to greet her.

Qi Yan took a deep look at Nangong Jingnv, then lifted the hem of her clothes and knelt on the ground: "His Highness Labor is here, I am not very frightened."

Nangong Jingnv: "Yuan Jun..." Today is not what it used to be, Nangong Jingnv instantly understood Qi Yan's intentions, and although she didn't say anything to dissuade her, she still helped Qi Yan up with distress.

Nangong Jingnu: "Go back."

Qi Yan: "Yes."

Nangong Jingnv is about to become an empress, a ruler over tens of thousands of people, her prestige must be established as soon as possible, so that no one can think that the son-in-law may "override" the princess.

The embankment of a thousand miles was destroyed by an ant's nest, and even the slightest negligence may hinder the empress from ascending the throne.

Qi Yan understands that Nangong Jingnv is not confused, it is one thing to live behind closed doors, but another thing in front of outsiders.

It was cold, and the sedan chair in the inner court was changed from the four-sided ventilated style in summer to a box-style one. The two got into the sedan chair and sat firmly, and Qiu Ju closed the sedan door from the outside: "Get up the sedan chair and drive... Your Highness, Where are you driving?"

Nangong Jingnv looked at Qi Yan, who said without thinking, "I want to go back to the Princess Mansion."

Nangong Jingnu: "Go home."

Qiu Ju: "Show me the princess mansion!"

Inside the sedan chair, the hands of the two were naturally held together, their fingers intertwined.Nangong Jingnv leaned on Qi Yan's shoulder and said with pity: "I made you suffer."

Qi Yan: "Your Highness, don't get so close, it's unlucky."

Nangong Jingnu shook her head: "I'm not afraid."

Qi Yan sighed softly, and grabbed Nangong Jingnv's shoulders: "Have you got the list?"

Nangong Jingnu: "Yes."

Qi Yan: "Go back to the mansion and tell His Highness another good thing."

Nangong Jingnu lacked interest, and murmured: "It is the best thing that you are by my side."

Qi Yan felt uncomfortable, she couldn't express her tenderness, so she could only wrap her arms around Nangong Jingnu tightly.

Nangong Jingnv: "You've lost weight again, what should you do?" After speaking, her eyes turned red, and Qi Yan not only lost weight, but also paled a lot due to the lack of sunlight in the sky prison.

Qi Yan suppressed the sadness in her heart, and joked: "Then His Highness wants to give me something good to eat."

Nangong Jingnv laughed through her tears, and pinched Qi Yan: "These words seem to treat you harshly."

Qi Yan blinked, and asked back: "No?"

Nangong Jingnu: "You still say?!"

Qi Yan smiled slightly, held up Nangong Jingnv's head, and gently wiped away the moisture from the corners of Nangong Jingnv's eyes: "Your Highness."

Nangong Jingnv stared at Qi Yan's coquettish eyes, the other's exquisite face has not changed for several years.

Nangong Jingnv felt Qi Yan's love and care, and suddenly some... pictures flashed in her mind, and she blushed.

Nangong Jing's voice tightened, and she replied weakly: "Huh?"

Qi Yan: "I want to ride a horse."

Nangong Jingnv was stunned, seeing Qi Yan's serious face and not seeming to be joking, she couldn't help giving Qi Yan a look: This spoils the scenery...

The charm in her heart was dispelled, and Nangong Jingnv asked: "Yes, yes, but I haven't ridden a horse for many years, and I have almost forgotten it...Why do I suddenly want to ride a horse?"

Qi Yan smiled triumphantly: "I got a good horse for thousands of miles in Luobei this time, and I miss it if I don't ride it for a few days."

Nangong Jingnv was a little angry, her charm was no match for a horse?After thinking about it, he laughed secretly at himself for being bored, how could he still be jealous with a horse?

Nangong Jingnu: "Okay, I want to see how far the son-in-law's riding skills are."

Qi Yan: "I'm afraid it's better than Your Highness."

Nangong Jingnu let out a "hum", but did not refute.

She originally wanted to ask about Qi Yan's "water syndrome", but seeing that his condition seemed to be much better, she didn't mention it.

When they came to the gate of Princess Zhenzhen's mansion, all the servants in the mansion knelt at the door to welcome the son-in-law back to the mansion, and there was a brazier at the door.

Qi Yan: "Did you jump into the brazier again?"

Nangong Jingnu: "Yes."

Qi Yan stepped over the brazier, Nangong Jingnv grabbed a handful of salt and sprinkled it on her body: "The soup pool is ready for you, you can eat after washing."

Qi Yan: "Thank you, Your Highness."

Pushing open the door of the Tangchi Hall, a scent of medicinal herbs rushed towards the face amidst the hot air, Qi Yan locked the door and window and went down into the Tangchi, the water temperature was just right and Qi Yan let out a comfortable "hmm".

There were a few gauze bags floating on the water, Qi Yan grabbed them and smelled them, they contained wormwood and other medicinal herbs for dispelling dampness and cold, which were not prepared in the soup pool in the past.

Qi Yan took a beautiful bath, changed into clean clothes, and left the soup pool.

Of the two maids guarding the door, one came forward and put the fox fur coat on Qi Yan's body and fastened her belt.

Another person stepped forward at the right time and handed the hand stove with a moderate temperature to Qi Yan: "My lord, Your Highness said that you will come out as soon as you wear unlined clothes, and ordered the servants to wait here. Your Highness said: "The autumn cold dew is heavy, you will come out soon." Be careful to keep warm when you come out with moisture.”

Qi Yan was a little dumbfounded: "Thank you."

The servant girl returned a blessing: "It is the face of slaves and servants to serve the son-in-law. Your Highness said that lunch is ready. Please go directly to the imperial dining hall. She is waiting for you."

Ever since Nangong Jingnv found out that Qi Yan's body had "water syndrome", she read some medical books. Although she couldn't understand it, she firmly remembered a sentence: people with "water syndrome" are afraid of cold and wet.

That's why this scene happened, when Qi Yan came to the entrance of the dining hall, she smelled the aroma of roasted mutton, she handed the hand stove to the maid, and after entering the dining hall, she untied the mask and handed it to Qiu Ju.

Qi Yan: "It smells so good!"

Nangong Jingnv smiled sweetly: "Sure enough, you are a lucky person. You came here as soon as this roasted whole lamb was sliced."

Qi Yan smiled and sat beside Nangong Jingnv, while Qiu Ju retreated with a group of maids and Pao Ding.

There is a square tray in the middle of the table, and a whole sheep has been sliced, divided into different parts, and stacked neatly on the tray.

The outer circle is eight dishes, four meat and four vegetables, and a sweet soup made with fruits to relieve greasy.

Every dish is Qi Yan's favorite.

Nangong Jingnv scooped up a spoonful of chive flower sauce for Qi Yan, and put a piece of meat on the plate: "Have a taste?"

But Qi Yan took the jug and poured a cup for Nangong Jingnv: "Only three cups are allowed, and I have to go horseback riding in the afternoon."

Nangong Jingnu pursed her lips and smiled: "Understood, housekeeper!"

Qi Yan also smiled.

The mutton was grilled extremely well, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, delicious and juicy, the aroma of the mutton exploded in his mouth when he took a bite of the chive sauce, but Qi Yan suddenly thought of Bayin in the grassland, and his interest was mostly lost.

Nangong Jingnu: "What's the matter? Doesn't taste good?" She also tasted a piece as she said, "No, the taste hasn't changed."

Qi Yan: "No, it's just..."

Nangong Jingnu: "It's okay, if you feel greasy, eat something else."

As he said, he helped Qi Yan to prepare vegetables. According to medical books, people with "water syndrome" have yin deficiency, often have tasteless food, and loss of appetite.

After Qi Yan tasted every dish, she lost her appetite.

Nangong Jingnv scooped up another bowl of fruit soup for her: "Have a bowl?"

Qi Yan: "Your Highness, come down and have a meal. You see...you haven't even drank any wine, and I serve you dishes."

Nangong Jingnu: "I respect you for the first cup, and you can replace the bar with fruit soup!"

Nangong Jingnv picked up the wine bottle and drank it down.Qi Yan took a sip of the fruit soup, it was refreshing and sweet.

……

After lunch, the two of them rested for half an hour, both put on bunts, Qi Yan ordered someone to bring Jinhuanwu over, the horse didn't see its owner for several days, snorted and kept rubbing against Qi Yan's face.

Jinhuanwu: "Master, where have you been? Little Wuwu misses you so much..."

Qi Yan grabbed a handful of corn to feed the Jinhuanwu, and patted its neck: "...? Don't be too enthusiastic."

Jinhuanwu snorted aggrievedly and calmed down.

Nangong Jingnu was amazed: "I heard from Qiu Ju that this horse is so fierce that people don't usually touch it!"

Qi Yan smiled and said: "Your Highness, please get on the horse!"

Nangong Jingnu: "Shall we ride together?"

Qi Yan: "I'm not good at riding, Your Highness should protect me."

Nangong Jingnv gave Qi Yan an angry look, and the maids and servants behind all showed knowing smiles, Qi Yan smiled "hehe" and helped Nangong Jingnv onto the horse's back, then straddled Nangong Jingnv's back, hugged her Her waist held the reins.

His chin was on Nangong Jingnv's shoulder: "Does Your Highness know the way to the racecourse?"

Nangong Jingnu: "One racecourse is in the palace, and the other is far away. Let's take a walk outside the city."

Qi Yan: "Okay~."

The princess and the son-in-law were making love, Qiu Ju took the lead and turned her back, and the rest of the servants followed suit, but they couldn't help thinking: The princess and the son-in-law are so affectionate.
