Xu Jinghuai, who had personally given instructions, walked around the screen and came to the bedside.

He sat beside the bed, looking at Yan Yunshu quietly.

At this moment, Yan Yunshu's beautiful eyes were slightly closed, and there were red marks at the corners of her eyes from crying.

He felt a pang of pity in his heart.

I just regretted that I had spent too much time on this.

That's a bit too much.

He took the handkerchief beside him and tried to wipe the sweat off her face, but just as he touched her soft and rosy cheek.

A fire rose in my heart again.

I couldn't help but gently touch her cheek.

Feeling his touch, Yan Yunshu suddenly opened her eyes, her eyes full of confusion and innocence after the storm.

There was also the familiar sadness caused by past events, which was not noticed by Xu Jinghuai at all.

Xu Jinghuai quickly withdrew his mouth guiltily.

"My lord, I just want to help you wipe the sweat off your face."

Yan Yunshu glared at him in reproach, then stretched out her delicate hand from under the silk quilt, clenched it into a pink fist, and punched him in the chest.

"Your Highness, are you satisfied now? Are you satisfied?"

Each punch was delivered with little force.

But it hit Xu Jinghuai's heart.

So the fire in my heart burned even more vigorously.

It cannot be reduced in any way.

Yan Yunshu looked at the familiar fire in Xu Jinghuai's eyes.

I was so frightened that I huddled under the quilt.

"Your Highness, please spare me. I am no longer able to talk."

Xu Jinghuai looked at her like a frightened rabbit and couldn't help but smile indulgently.

"This king knows."

"That……"

"This king..."

Xu Jinghuai's Adam's apple moved violently, and his fiery eyes were glued tightly to her lips and the undulating silk quilt.

Yan Yunshu felt something was wrong and quickly turned sideways with her back to him.

Holding the silk quilt tightly in her arms.

Could this be happening again?

Xu Jinghuai is energetic, tough and strong, unmatched by anyone, but she is just an ordinary woman, how can she fight with him like this.

Even in the previous life when we were so close and inseparable, he left at midnight at most.

How could he have been pestering her for so long?

Just as she was thinking, Yan Yunshu felt a slight chill behind her.

Only then did he remember that when he turned sideways, he only protected the front of him and forgot what was behind him.

He quickly reached out and pulled the silk quilt to his back.

But in this panic, Xu Jinghuai held her wrist tightly.

She looked at Xu Jinghuai and saw that his face was flushed, his breathing was uneven, and his eyes were getting hotter and hotter.

He seemed to be trying to control himself too much, and during those few seconds when he took a breath, his whole face was shaking unconsciously.

“My king, my king…”

Yan Yunshu felt soft-hearted when she saw him like this.

You can only lift the silk quilt.

Let him do whatever he wants.

……

I don’t know how much time had passed, but the water in the bathtub had been changed again and again.

The eunuchs had no idea what had happened in the bedroom. They only knew that His Highness had ordered hot water at midnight, but it did not come. Seeing that the water was getting cold, they changed it again and again until daybreak.

I finally got to see His Highness and came here with a satisfied look on my face.

But he didn't take a bath immediately, but just asked everyone to leave.

They naturally didn't dare to ask any more questions and quickly closed the hall door and left.

Back away.

Not long after, Xu Jinghuai carried Yan Yunshu around the waist and put her into the bathtub.

The tub quickly submerged her, leaving only her delicate collarbone exposed.

"Is the water temperature suitable?" Xu Jinghuai asked.

Yan Yunshu hummed, her face flushed, and turned away, not looking at him.

Xu Jinghuai naturally knew what she was thinking.

He couldn't help but start blaming himself again, but even though he was complaining, his body honestly moved closer to her.

……

Supervisor of the Eastern Palace Eunuchs.

The Chief Eunuch and Yingfeng looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

"Well, then... His Majesty asked if Your Highness would attend the celebration banquet today?"

"Your Excellency is the chief commander of His Highness's personal secret guards. It would be best if you ask this question in person."

"I am only a small secret guard and dare not disturb His Highness. I will have to trouble the eunuchs for instructions on this matter so that we can report back to His Majesty."

"Hmph, now that we're in such a difficult situation, you're just a small secret guard?"

"Please, Lord Neiguan, go to the bedroom."

"I won't go, you should go."

"Go, Lord Neiguan."

"Go ahead, sir."

"The eunuch is going..."

"Oh! I can't go! Aren't you always inseparable from His Highness? Why do you have to ask me to come for such a small matter? I am old and can't walk anymore. You are young and energetic, so please go!"

"Master Neiguan, please don't embarrass me. I..."

The two of them were pulling and tugging at each other, almost coming to a fight.

But then the voice of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was heard in front of the prison gate.

"What am I doing?"

The two were overjoyed as if they had been pardoned, and hurriedly looked towards the door.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Xu Jinghuai walked in triumphantly.

There is still the lingering spring...love on her face.

Before Yingfeng could speak.

Xu Jinghuai then ordered Yingfeng, "Leave the palace."

After saying that, he turned around and left, so decisively that both of them were stunned.

Looking at Xu Jinghuai's back, the eunuch who woke up first pushed Yingfeng who was still in a daze. Yingfeng finally came to his senses and hurriedly followed him.

"Your Highness, what are you doing out of the palace?"

"Send Yan Yunshu back home."

"Ah? Why is Miss Yan still in the palace? I didn't see her!"

Xu Jinghuai laughed in anger. He stopped and looked back at Ying Feng who was pretending, "Okay, stop pretending."

Yingfeng blushed all the way to his neck.

It was almost dusk when Yan Yunshu returned to the Marquis' Mansion.

After a day's rest, she had regained her usual spirit, but her every move had a more delicate and charming look.

Her grandmother, mother, aunt and others in the house were all busy preparing the dress for her coming-of-age ceremony, so they didn't notice anything.

For this, she was relieved.

She looked at the dress, and as expected, it looked the same as in her previous life.

Just the cuffs.

There were nine more red jade beads. She looked at them in surprise.

There are differences, there are differences!

why?

Perhaps seeing that she was curious about the ruby beads, Mrs. Wen took time out of her busy schedule to explain to her.

"Is it beautiful? This is a red jade bead from the East China Sea that my mother specially embroidered. A few days ago, I took it to Miaofeng Temple and had it blessed by the abbot. The abbot said that this bead is magical and can bring peace and happiness to my daughter throughout her life."

Yan Yunshu touched the red jade bead, her expression still filled with surprise. "Did mother embroider it herself?"

"Well! Does Shu'er like it?"

"like!"

Yan Yunshu looked at the red jade bead that had never existed in her previous life.

Only then did I realize that things could be different, and not everything was the same as in the previous life.

The many comparisons during this period often made her feel that this life was like a mirage, clearly within reach, yet always illusory and blurry.

But ever since I saw the changes my mother made to her coming-of-age dress.

She began to feel again that this life seemed to have its own vitality, and she no longer had to live in comparison with her previous life.
