Prince Jing's Mansion.

When the guests saw that Prince Jing left without caring about Princess Xiling and Princess Jing's wife, they all looked at each other in bewilderment.

King Xuan Chu Xingyue sneered, "Ye Linglong is so arrogant, she probably didn't expect to be treated so coldly on her wedding day." He remembered that he had tried to get along with Ye Linglong but was rejected, and at this moment he felt very relieved.

"Wei Zhiying is too unreasonable. After all, she is Princess Xiling. You can just leave by yourself, but you even take Prince Jing with you!" Mu Yanran said.

"What does this have to do with you? This is the family affair of my third brother and his wife, and it's not your turn to interrupt!" King Nan Chu Xingliang said dissatisfiedly.

Lu Qing'er and Wei Jinghe at the next table looked at each other, both worried about Xia Taoyuan. Wei Qing whispered, "Sister must have been wronged, there is no light in her eyes."

Princess Ye Yiyi of Xiang said at the side: "Zhiying is just confused for the moment, she will figure it out after some time."

After the ceremony, Emperor Ying returned to the palace. When he arrived at the palace, he received a report from the secret guards saying that Prince Jing and Princess Jing had gone to Taotao Garden.

Although Emperor Ying was dissatisfied with Xia Taoyuan, he did not say anything. As long as Ye Linglong did not come to complain, he would pretend that nothing had happened. Anyway, you, Ye Linglong, insisted on getting married. Not only did I agree, I also helped you marry into Prince Jing's Mansion. I can't control the rest.

He was not worried at all that Chu Xingluo and Xia Taoyuan would run away. On the day Chu Xingluo begged him not to punish Xia Taoyuan, he said that if they ran away, all the people in Yunjun City who had any relationship with them would be implicated.

Chu Xingluo drove his carriage to Taoyuan. He thought he couldn't leave the city, but he was able to pass through without any obstacles. The emperor must have issued an order not to stop him.

When they arrived at Taoyuan, Xia Taoyuan jumped off the carriage, and Chu Xingluo moved things from the carriage into the house. These were food and daily necessities prepared for them by Long Yan and Qingyun.

Xia Taoyuan sat by the lake, watching the blooming lotus and smelling the fragrance. Her heart calmed down and she stopped thinking about random things. She closed her eyes and lay on the grass by the lake, bathing in the sun and feeling the breeze.

Chu Xingluo couldn't bear to disturb her, so he sat down not far from her.

At Prince Jing's Mansion, all the guests had left, and Ye Linglong hadn't waited for Chu Xingluo to come. She ignored the old maid's obstruction and took off her red veil.

Glancing at the people in the room, all of whom she had brought with her, she asked, "Where is Chu Xingluo now?"

One of her guards said, "Princess, you haven't seen your husband since the wedding ceremony." She was very smart, and afraid that Ye Linglong would be angry, she didn't tell her that Chu Xingluo and Wei Zhiying had left.

"Go, find him for me!" Ye Linglong raised her voice. On the wedding day, he was not by her side.

The guard responded and went out with a few maids. After walking around the palace, they still didn't see Chu Xingluo, so they had to bite the bullet and go to the East Garden to look for him. The reason they were reluctant was because Long Yan and Qingyun had warned them not to go near the East Garden after Ye Linglong's wedding.

When they arrived at the gate of the East Garden, they were stopped by Yingge. Ye Linglong's guards explained their purpose, and Yingge sneered, "Our prince has entered the palace, and we don't know when he will be back."

"Where is Wei Zhiying?" asked the guard.

"How dare you! You can't just call our princess by her name! Get out!" Yingge said angrily.

The guard and the maidservant left embarrassedly, returned to Beiyuan, and told Ye Linglong the truth.

Ye Linglong was furious after hearing this, and gritted her teeth and said, "Chu Xingluo, today is our wedding day, and you are so disrespectful to me and Wei Zhiying, you two just wait for me!"

Perhaps because he was away from the crowd, Xia Taoyuan felt so relaxed that he actually fell asleep by the lake.

Chu Xingluo was afraid that she would catch a cold, so he gently carried her into the house. When she woke up, Chu Xingluo had already prepared dinner.

After a good night's sleep, Xia Taoyuan felt much calmer. She raised her hand to touch the wound on Chu Xingluo's face and asked softly, "Does it still hurt?"

Chu Xingluo smiled and said, "It doesn't hurt anymore. You must be hungry. Come and eat."

The two sat down to eat. Chu Xingluo took Xia Taoyuan's hand and said softly, "The sunset outside is beautiful. Shall we go for a walk by the lake?"

Xia Taoyuan hummed, and the two walked out of the yard. The sunset was blood-red, and the sky was full of rosy clouds. From a distance, it looked like a beautiful oil painting. The two walked along the lake. Xia Taoyuan remembered that when it snowed in winter, they walked in the snow together and promised to grow old together. Then she thought of her recent unreasonable behavior, and her heart was full of guilt. She couldn't help but lean into Chu Xingluo's arms.

The sky gradually darkened, and Chu Xingluo led Xia Taoyuan to the small hill they had been to. Looking at the starry sky, Xia Taoyuan remembered the promise they had made here, that they would stay together for the rest of their lives.

Xia Taoyuan couldn't help but lie down in Chu Xingluo's arms and cried. Chu Xingluo patted her back gently to comfort her, and said softly: "Taotao, don't cry!" He kissed Xia Taoyuan, kissed away her tears, and finally kissed her lips.

The two stayed in Taoyuan for three days. During the three days when they were away, Ye Linglong went crazy. She tried to break into the East Garden several times but failed to get in. She was stopped by Long Yan and Qing Yun. She also broke into the West Garden. The West Garden was Xia Taoyuan's residence, but she had never lived there and there was no one there usually. Ye Linglong smashed the West Garden to pieces to vent her anger.

She smashed the West Garden, but she still couldn't vent her anger. She wanted to go to the palace to find Emperor Ying, but was stopped by the housekeeper she brought with her. "Princess, you are now married to Prince Jing, and things are different from before. In the past, if you went to see the emperor, he would intervene out of consideration for his feelings. Now, if you go again, the emperor will only be annoyed."

The old maid Wu Ma also said, "Yes, Princess, the prince consort is now being affectionate with Wei Zhiying, but that's because he hasn't discovered your kindness yet! After some time, when things are stable, I will find a way to get the prince consort to come to your side."

Wu Ma is Ye Linglong's wet nurse. Ye Linglong respects her very much and often listens to what the wet nurse says.

Ye Linglong finally swallowed her anger and just waited for Chu Xingluo to come back.

Late at night, the palace.

"How many days has the third brother been in Taoyuan?" Emperor Ying asked his secret guard captain Luo Heng.

"My lord, today is the fourth day." Luo Heng said.

"Well, he should have stayed here long enough. Eunuch Liu, send someone to Taoyuan early tomorrow morning to convey the imperial edict and let him enter the palace!" Emperor Ying ordered.

Eunuch Liu responded.

After Luo Heng left, Emperor Ying sighed, "The daughter of Fan Rui, the prefect of Yangzhou, has agreed to marry the eldest son as a concubine, and the Princess of Huai has no objection. But the second son, I asked him to marry a concubine, but he actually refused, which surprised me a little. Forget it, I don't want to worry about this kind of thing anymore in the future."

"Once the crown prince is appointed, you won't have to work so hard." Eunuch Liu saw that Emperor Ying was tired.

"Well, I can't wait any longer. I'm really too tired. How about the Mid-Autumn Festival?" Emperor Ying looked at Eunuch Liu.

Eunuch Liu hurriedly asked, "Has the emperor already chosen someone?"

"Let's take the third brother for example. At that time, he actually wanted to be a commoner and not marry Ye Linglong. What about now? He still married her? He wanted to be a commoner, but I don't agree with him. I want him to be the crown prince and sit on my throne in the future."

Eunuch Liu said with a smile: "Your Majesty, this matter cannot be taken lightly. You can't make him the crown prince just because you are angry with Prince Jing. This matter needs to be considered carefully!"

"So let it be. The eldest has no interest in the position of crown prince. The second eldest is actually quite capable, but in my heart I still hope it's the third eldest. You can say that I owe it or that I am biased, but I want to give Rong'er an explanation. If Changqing had come back, or even if he couldn't come back, and if Wei Qin hadn't framed him, the position of queen would have been Rong'er's." Emperor Ying let out a long sigh of relief.

Eunuch Liu stood with his hands hanging down, listening silently.

"The fourth one lacks some kindness. The fifth one is not bad, but he is still young. So let's do this, and establish the third one during the Mid-Autumn Festival." Emperor Ying pinched his brows.

"It's late at night. Will the emperor go to the ancestral temple tonight?" asked Eunuch Liu.

"Go, I want to talk to Rong'er for a while."

Eunuch Liu held a lantern and led the way, and he and Emperor Ying went to the ancestral hall one after the other.
