After rebirth, she turned around and married the emperor's uncle and tore the scumbag apart

He Yulin arrived at North Street by horse-drawn carriage.

However, there was nothing in the yard.

A woman from next door was carrying a basket home when she saw He Yulin in his official robes. She put down her basket and came over respectfully to ask, "Sir, are you looking for Liu Dahu's family?"

He Yulin turned his head stiffly and asked her, "Where did they go?"

The woman didn't know what they did, and while looking them over, she said, "They went out to visit relatives, and have been gone for more than ten days. Hmm... eighteen days, yes, it's been exactly eighteen days today."

eighteen……

It was the day after he came looking for me.

The woman continued to ramble on, "Those two usually did odd jobs for wealthy families, earning just enough to eat and drink. Who knew they'd buy a carriage on the day they left? It didn't look cheap!"

He pursed his lips, looking jealous and resentful.

He Yulin collapsed to the ground, utterly exhausted.

The woman's words directly confirmed his suspicions.

Pink Peach was instructed by someone to cause trouble in front of the He residence. What he overheard outside the gate may have been the work of the schemer.

He didn't believe A Ning and fell into her trap so easily, almost strangling her to death.

Back at the He residence, the man sent out to find He Yulin returned to the Qinfang Courtyard and immediately reported with his head bowed: "Young Master... went to Zuixianju..."

He didn't say the rest, but everyone in the hall knew that He Yulin was running away and probably wouldn't be coming back today.

He Wen stood up and walked to Madam Qin and He Yulin, his attitude humble but not servile: "Madam, Yulin is having a hard time accepting this right now. Could you give him another day? Wan Ning should also consider it for another day. If Wan Ning is still determined to divorce by then, I will make the decision to make him agree."

"Ning'er, what do you think?" Madam Qin looked at her daughter.

Waiting one more day won't change her determination to get a divorce.

"Alright, Wan Ning will wait one more day. Thank you, Lord He."

She wouldn't even call him her father-in-law.

He Wen's expression stiffened for a moment, he sighed, and ultimately said nothing more.

The General's Mansion in the capital had always been managed by an old servant. Madam Qin took Qin Wan Ning directly back to the General's Mansion, leaving only her dowry and some other personal belongings at the He Mansion.

It's not too late to take it after the divorce is finalized.

Thanks to the medicinal effects of that half-plant of Spirit Fire Grass, Xiao Yu's physical condition improved significantly.

Yesterday I felt a bit weak and could only walk slowly around the room. Today I woke up earlier than usual and felt more energetic.

Su Lingyue had been taking care of Xiao Yu these past few days, and dared not sleep too soundly each night. Now that Xiao Yu's condition has improved, Su Lingyue's tense spirit has completely relaxed, and she is sleeping more deeply and for longer than before.

Xiao Yu was able to move around on his own, so the guards didn't enter the room, and Su Lingyue slept without clothes on.

There was a stove burning in the room. It was too hot for Su Lingyue. After taking a bath, she stripped herself naked and crawled into bed.

After a night's sleep, only a corner of the blanket was loosely draped over her stomach, and one hand was loosely clenched beside the soft pillow; she was fast asleep.

Her sleeping face was hazy and charming, and as Xiao Yu looked at her, a warmth gradually grew in his heart.

Xiao Yu propped his head up with one hand and looked at her, finding it amusing. He then raised his other hand and placed his index finger into her slightly curled palm.

Sensing something amiss, her slender fingers twitched, loosely grasping Xiao Yu's fingers. Xiao Yu smiled and scratched Su Lingyue's palm with his fingers. Su Lingyue frowned, and after Xiao Yu stopped moving, she fell into a deep sleep again.

Seeing that she was sleeping soundly, Xiao Yu stopped disturbing her and just watched her quietly.

only……

Her gaze shifted and settled on the slightly heaving chest, half-hidden by the brocade quilt, revealing a small, round, and full shape below one collarbone.

Xiao Yu gritted his teeth.

I want to bite something.

He closed his eyes, took a breath, and looked at Su Lingyue again; his trembling eyes had returned to calm.

He's been taking medication to suppress his desires; he shouldn't be like this.

He lifted the gauze curtain, got up, poured himself a cup of hot tea, and after drinking it, Xiao Yu's turbulent heart gradually calmed down.

Returning to the bedside, Xiao Yu picked up the chess manual on the low table. Just as he was about to turn around, he stopped, lifted the gauze curtain, and saw that Su Lingyue was still fast asleep. He then put the curtain down, picked up the chess manual, and sat down at the table to read it.

Su Lingyue slept for another half an hour before waking up. Before she even opened her eyes, her hand instinctively reached out to her side.

Instead of finding anyone familiar as usual, Su Lingyue suddenly opened her eyes. Seeing that Xiao Yu was indeed not there, she hurriedly called out, "Your Highness!"

"Yue'er."

Hearing the familiar voice, Su Lingyue lifted the gauze curtain and saw Xiao Yu sitting at the table reading a book. Her tense heart instantly relaxed.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Yu put down his book and walked towards the bedside.

"Well, it's just that I woke up and didn't see you, so I'm not used to it." Su Lingyue stared at Xiao Yu without blinking.

The blanket had slipped down to her waist, leaving her full breasts exposed. The morning light shone on her body, making her fair skin appear even fairer and her rosy skin even rosier.

Xiao Yu sat down by the bed and saw Su Lingyue looking at him, seemingly not fully awake, so he gently pulled her into his arms.

Su Lingyue obediently leaned against Xiao Yu's chest, wrapping her arms around his waist.

Xiao Yu clicked his tongue softly: "Little thing, are you so inseparable from your husband?" His large hand continued to stroke Su Lingyue's back to comfort her.

Su Lingyue hugged Xiao Yu tighter and said in a muffled voice, "Yes, I can't be without Your Highness for a moment. I feel uneasy if I can't see you. I need Your Highness to be with me all the time."

Having witnessed Xiao Yu's weakened state, the fear of losing him had unknowingly become an instinct ingrained in Su Lingyue's bones.

Xiao Yu chuckled, "Yue'er is still fast asleep, naked. How could I dare leave? She used to cover herself when she saw me, but now she's become even less shy and doesn't bother covering herself at all."

Su Lingyue tilted her head back and asked with a smile, "Isn't it pretty?"

A low chuckle came from above, "Forgot? Let me take another look."

The two didn't argue in the house for too long. Today, the reconstruction of Muyunxuan was coming to an end, and she wanted to go with Xiao Yu to take a look and then confirm the date for moving in.

When Cai Die and Cai Yi came in to help the two wash up, they also brought Qin Wan Ning's letter.

Xiao Yu took a hot towel, walked behind Su Lingyue, and read Qin Wanning's letter with her.

In the letter, Qin Wanning said that Madam Qin and the Second Young Master Qin had returned to the capital and would be holding a welcome banquet at home in three days. Madam Qin wanted to thank Su Lingyue and invited her to the banquet.

There was also a note attached to the letter.

Caiyi said, "The letter was personally delivered by the Second Young Master Qin, along with many specialties from the Western Regions. He originally wanted to ask the Princess if she was free, but upon hearing that the Princess was still asleep, he left the gifts and letter and went back first. He told her before he left that she must reply once she woke up."

As if remembering something, Cai Die's eyes sparkled with excitement as she said, "I never expected that Second Young Master Qin to be so handsome. The way he walks with such an air of grandeur is so different from the young masters of the capital."

Caiyi tugged at Caidie's sleeve, and only then did Caidie realize that Xiao Yu was staring at her. Startled, Caidie quickly lowered her head and shrank back like a quail.

Only then did she realize that the prince had been unable to walk for a long time, and praising others in front of him would surely make him feel uncomfortable.

Cai Die pinched her thigh, annoyed at her thoughtless words.

Seeing the smile on Su Lingyue's face, Xiao Yu asked casually, "Want to go?"

Su Lingyue looked at Xiao Yu and nodded: "The last time I saw Aunt was at Wan Ning's wedding. She is a very kind and cheerful elder. I would also like to ask her about the divorce situation."

At this point, Su Lingyue's face showed a hint of melancholy, "If Wan Ning succeeds in getting a divorce, she will go to the Western Territory with Madam Qin."

This may be one of the few days they have left to see each other.

Su Lingyue looked up again and saw Xiao Yu looking at her with a sullen face.

After a moment of stunned silence, I finally realized what was happening.

She immediately put on a smiling face, hugged Xiao Yu's waist, and said coquettishly, "Your Highness, can you come with me?"

Xiao Yu lowered his eyes and stared at Su Lingyue without saying a word, but his furrowed brows said it all.

He didn't want to go.

Su Lingyue's eyes flickered as she looked at Cai Die, a hint of disappointment in her voice. "Second Brother Qin is also here. It's really inappropriate for me to go alone. Please refuse for me. Wan Ning and I are of one mind, and she will surely understand."

Seeing the disappointment on Su Lingyue's face, Xiao Yu frowned, placed the still-steaming handkerchief on Su Lingyue's face and gently rubbed it, and scoffed in a not-so-pleasant tone: "Starting to play tricks on your husband, are you so sure that your husband won't refuse you?"

Su Lingyue raised her face and let Xiao Yu wipe her face.

After Xiao Yu coldly removed the handkerchief, Su Lingyue smiled and said, "Yes, I'm sure the prince cherishes me and wouldn't want to see me sad."

Xiao Yu scoffed again, his face darkening as he turned to wash the handkerchief.

Even though she had just said she couldn't leave for a moment, she was ready to accept a private invitation from someone else without batting an eye.

I really wish that little mouth could never say anything but sweet words, so as to stop being so infuriating.

After washing his hands and drying them, Xiao Yu put down the handkerchief and said to Caiyi, "Go back to the Qin residence. I will be there on time with the Princess Consort."

Caiyi nodded respectfully: "Yes, Your Highness."

The butterfly kept its head down and dared not make a sound.
