After stabbing my ex-boyfriend, I went traveling

It was said that Emperor Donghua ordered Shao Xin to be locked up in the Demon Locking Tower that day, and said that her life or death depended on her luck.

But in fact, Sang Ji was the only one who was anxious about this matter. Shao Xin had a life-saving magic weapon given to her by Yang Mei, but she did not tell Sang Ji.

When the ten-day deadline was about to expire, Shao Xin thought in the tower that he couldn't go out without any injuries. If he went out and let people see him, even a fool would know that there was something fishy.

So on the last day, she removed her defensive magic weapon and inflicted injuries on herself that looked scary and serious but actually did not cause any serious damage to her bones.

After ten days, Sang Ji entered the Demon Locking Tower and saw Shao Xin lying on the ground covered in blood. His legs immediately went weak and he almost collapsed to the ground. He thought Shao Xin was dead.

It was Lian Song, who came in with him, who quickly helped him up and told him that Shao Xin was still breathing. Only then did Sang Ji regain the strength to support himself.

Sang Ji stepped forward and carried Shao Xin out of the Demon Locking Tower and carried him back to his bedroom. Then, in his capacity as the second prince, he ordered the King of Medicine to come and treat Shao Xin's injuries.

After confirming that Shao Xin was not in danger of life, Sang Ji made an important decision without discussing it with anyone.

He went to see the Emperor of Heaven again, still asking him to allow him to marry Shao Xin, but unlike the previous times, this time he showed that he was willing to pay the price.

As long as the Heavenly Emperor allows him to marry Shao Xin, Sang Ji is willing to give up his position as prince and stay away from the Heavenly Palace.

When the Heavenly Emperor heard this, he was naturally furious. At that time, Sang Ji was determined this time. If the Heavenly Emperor did not agree, he would kneel at the door of the Heavenly Emperor and refuse to get up until the Heavenly Emperor agreed.

This silent tug-of-war lasted for five days, and finally the Emperor of Heaven compromised.

Although he had placed high hopes on his second son before, otherwise why would he let him marry Bai Qian of Qingqiu, but in the final analysis, he already had Ye Hua as his heir, so it didn't matter if Sang Ji was deposed, and it didn't turn the father and son into enemies.

The Heavenly Army ordered that the second prince Sang Ji be demoted to the King of the North Sea and that he be forbidden to enter the Heavenly Palace without an imperial decree. Shao Xin was also assigned to him as a concubine.

Yes, concubine.

The old man Tianjun is a very evil person. He still holds a grudge against Shao Xin for seducing his son, so even now he is still trying to hinder their marriage.

Sang Ji was only a little embarrassed before he let it go. It was just a title. As long as he insisted on staying with Shao Xin for the rest of his life, what difference would there be between a wife and a concubine? Shao Xin must have thought the same.

Shao Xin... Shao Xin looked like she was saying something like "I only wish your heart is like mine, and I will never let you down" with tears in her eyes, but actually she felt sick inside.

She worked so hard but in the end she could only be a concubine for the rest of her life?!

However, Shao Xin knew that the matter had been settled and there was no room for change.

All right, I'll be a concubine. Anyway, it's better than being a maid before. At least I've become a master.

And even if Sang Ji was no longer the second prince, he was still the King of the North Sea, an official of some sort, in charge of the entire North Sea.

Fengjiu and Zhihe followed Chengyu Yuanjun and ate the whole melon.

While eating melons, Fengjiu did not forget to educate Zhihe: "See? Falling in love will not end well."

Zhihe: “…”

In front of Yang Mei and Dong Hua, Feng Jiu was in charge of the lecture, Zhi He supplemented on the side, and Lian Song had no room to interrupt.

"Is there any need to know about this matter?" Yang Mei's tone was calm.

Feng Jiu came close to her fourth uncle and said, "There is really no need to know, but we have nothing to do anyway. The last thing the heaven lacks is idle people. We don't even need to actively ask about these gossips, they will fly into our ears on their own!"

Yang Mei placed the last chess piece and he won the game.

"If you get bored staying here, go somewhere else to play. I see that you and Zhihe have been getting along well these past two days. If she's willing, you can invite her to Qingqiu for a visit."

Zhihe's eyes lit up, and she looked at Fengjiu expectantly.

Feng Jiu knew she was willing by looking at her expression: "Then Fourth Uncle, we will leave now!"

She tried to pull Zhihe, but Zhihe just looked at Donghua and didn't move.

"What's the matter?" Fengjiu felt strange, and she also looked at Donghua, "Do you need his permission to go with me? No way, he didn't care about you before, but now he cares about you, and even needs his permission to let you go?

I'm not saying anything bad about you, Zhihe, but given how indifferent he is to you, he wouldn't have noticed even if you had left without saying anything before."

Very good, this statement has successfully embarrassed more than one person.

Zhihe was shedding wide noodles tears in her heart. Why did she feel so miserable after hearing what Fengjiu said?

"Ahem!" Yang Mei chuckled, "Xiao Jiu is the youngest child in Qing Qiu. She is usually spoiled, so she speaks bluntly. Your Majesty, please don't challenge her."

Donghua smiled at Yang Mei: "How could that be?"

Then he said to Zhihe, "Go play with Xiaojiu, and be careful when you go out."

Zhihe almost shed tears because of these unprecedented words of concern.

Fengjiu couldn't bear to see her useless appearance and dragged her away.

Lian Song waved his fan blankly: "...I don't know why, but I always feel like I'm redundant here."

Siming appeared beside Lian Song like a ghost. He bowed slightly and said, "I am relieved that the Third Prince thinks so. Come over here, please. I will be responsible for treating the Third Prince to a cup of tea."

Lian Song followed Siming in a daze.

Only Yang Mei and Donghua were left under the peach tree by the pond.

Yang Mei lowered his eyes and fiddled with the white jade chess piece, seemingly unaware of the increasingly fiery gaze coming from the opposite side of him.

"Zhenzhen~" Donghua couldn't help but call out.

"What?" Yang Mei didn't even look at him.

"Zhenzhen, I like you." Donghua seemed to have opened up his Ren and Du meridians, and he could confess his love without hesitation.

Yang Mei was unmoved: "There are many people who like me."

"But I am the only one who loves you deeply. There is no one in the whole world who loves you more than me." Donghua said quite conceitedly.

Yang Mei finally raised her eyes to look at him: "Anyone can say nice words, wait until you move me with your actual actions before you say them."
