After becoming a concubine, she lived a miserable life every day.

Qiao Rongjin smiled and said, "Go ahead."

Seeing that the master thought it was no big deal, Qinglian left with peace of mind.

After seeing the man leave, Qiao Rongjin leaned lazily on the rocking chair she had someone buy for her, with a dull look in her eyes, as if she had lost all desire to live.

As expected, the heroine was reborn!

After realizing this, Qiao Rongjin became even more confused.

So, this is why the heroine stopped herself and said those tempting words.

In the book, I was already dead at this time, but the heroine came back to find that I was still alive and well, and she became suspicious. She was a time traveler, so her thinking was naturally different. She might subconsciously suspect whether I was also a time traveler like her, and then there was a scene where he stopped me and tested me.

When Qiao Rongjin thought about this, he felt that he had figured it out. As expected, the heroine was thinking the same way.

Then again, the heroine was testing herself like this. If it was really confirmed that she was from the same hometown as him, what would she do?

When fellow villagers meet, are their eyes filled with tears?

When Qiao Rongjin thought about the heroine's expression at that time, she intuitively felt that it should not be the case.

The heroine's expression at the time was both tentative and slightly scrutinizing. In any case, it didn't feel like she was expecting to be from the same hometown.

According to the information Qinyun had found out, something bad must have happened to the heroine in her previous life.

So, what happened to the heroine in her previous life? And why was she reborn?

After a long while, Qiao Rongjin couldn't figure it out and gave up.

Please pay more attention to her in the future. No matter whether she is a time traveler or a reborn one, as long as you don’t provoke her, she doesn’t care what this person does.

By the way, except Qiao Rongjin, everyone in the backyard followed the princess to Luoyanju. When they arrived, they saw the prince coming out.

"I have met the prince."

"This slave has met the prince."

When Prince Rui saw that it was the princess who brought everyone here, he knew that they were here to visit Chen. He subconsciously glanced at the whole place, then frowned.

Why didn’t Qiao come?

"Princess, you guys go ahead. I'm leaving first." After saying that, Prince Rui left.

The princess and her concubines were left staring at each other in bewilderment.

The prince has left, what’s the point of them coming here?

However, considering that Chen's illness was strange and since they were already here, everyone went in to take a look.

Then they found that Chen was still the same as usual, nothing different. Some of them said a few sarcastic words and left.

In the evening, Qiao Rongjin went to pick up Qi You from school again, which was a rare occasion.

"Mom! Why are you here?" Qi You was surprised, and then ran away with his short legs.

"Slow down! You little brat might fall down!" Qiao Rongjin kept talking with a bright smile on his face.

The mother was in a surprisingly good mood when her son saw how happy she was. This showed that her son was very attached to her. What a good thing!

The mother and son cuddled together for a while, and then slowly returned to the yard.

Zhuyun and Qinyun followed quietly behind.

"Are your legs still sore today?" Qiao Rongjin looked at him lovingly.

"It's a little sour, but it doesn't matter." Qi You answered seriously.

"That's good. It seems my son has adapted quite quickly. Give me your hand."

Qi You obediently stretched out his hand and let his mother hold it, with a bright smile on his little face.

The mother and son held hands all the way, and the sound of their conversations could be heard from time to time. The afterglow of the sun fell on the two of them, giving them a layer of golden light, which looked warm and beautiful.

Zhu Yun's eyes moved slightly. She knew that someone was watching them from behind. This person had a steady pace and breath, and it was obvious that he was a martial artist. However, this person did not have any murderous intent, and this was the palace of the king, so she could only pretend that she didn't know, and she didn't look back, for fear of exposing herself.

I thought I would find time to tell my master later.

Prince Rui had originally planned to go to Haitang Court tonight to talk to Mrs. Qiao about accompanying him to provide disaster relief the next day, so he happened to see the interaction between the mother and son just now. For a moment, he did not have the heart to speak out and break this warm and beautiful atmosphere. He just stayed where he was and waited until the people were far away before leaving.

So as to save both of them from feeling uncomfortable.

Thinking about Qiao, Prince Rui suddenly felt that it would be a good idea to take her with him this time.

Then, not long after Qiao Rongjin and his son entered the yard, they heard the sound of Prince Rui arriving at the door.

Qiao Rongjin was surprised.

Qi You didn't show any expression. Zhu Yun had just told him that when he saw someone following them, he guessed that it might be his father, whom he only saw a few times a month. This road could only lead to Haitang Courtyard.

But what was he doing here today? Qi You was a little unhappy. He didn't like outsiders to disturb him and his mother, so he didn't smile.

"Prince, you are here!" Qiao Rongjin showed his acting skills and greeted him with a smile.

Qi You also bowed.

"Well, I have something to tell you today." When King Rui came into contact with that scorching gaze, for the first time he did not look away, but looked straight up.

Then, my heart started beating uncontrollably again.

He hurriedly said, "Well, sit down and eat first."

Qiao Rongjin, who was about to say something, stopped talking after hearing this. He smiled obediently and said, "Okay, Qinglian, add another set of bowls and chopsticks."

Then, he pulled Qi You and sat down.

"Yes."

Then Qiao Rongjin turned to look at the prince and said, "Prince, I didn't know you were coming today. These are simple dishes. I don't know if you are used to them. How about I ask someone to bring two more dishes?"

Qiao Rongjin said without much sincerity.

I don't know if you have something to say in person today. It would be the same if you just asked someone to come.

"Nothing, this king won't pick on you."

"Ok."

Qiao Rongjin and Qi You sat on one side, and Prince Rui sat alone on the other side. The two sides sat opposite each other. The table was not small, and the two sides were not very familiar with each other, so the atmosphere was a little quiet.

Only after seeing Prince Rui pick up the first piece of food with chopsticks did Qiao Rongjin and his mother take action.

In order to prevent the atmosphere from being too suffocating, Qiao Rongjin would liven up the atmosphere from time to time and pick up some food for his son.

Prince Rui was unusually uncomfortable. Why were the mother and son so far away from him? Was he a scourge? Also, am I not worthy of you picking up food for me? Why did you only pick up food for Xiao Wu?

Even though he thought so, Prince Rui still looked calm and stern, and seemed very distant.

If Qiao Rongjin hadn't known that this was the big boss, the breadwinner of both mother and son, she wouldn't have wanted to act so enthusiastic. It felt like she was just having fun by herself the whole time. Prince Rui occasionally said something, but in the end, Qiao Rongjin stopped acting and just focused on eating because she was hungry.

Qi You ignored King Rui the whole time, and occasionally picked up some food for his mother, and then he would get a pat on the head from his mother.

The father and son were like strangers.

The meal was finished quickly.

Qiao Rongjin knew that it was inappropriate for children to be present when King Rui talked about something, so he sent Qi You out to play.

Then, only Prince Rui, Wang Fuyang, Qiao Rongjin and Qinglian were left in the main hall.

Prince Rui took a sip of tea, put down the cup, looked at Qiao Rongjin, and said directly, "This time we are going to Dingjun Prefecture to provide disaster relief. Chen has just recovered from a serious illness and cannot go, so I have decided to let you go with me."
