The imperial concubine is charming and charming, and only seeks power and wealth

Xie Anning paused and nodded slightly.

Wang Shaofu said, "I'm leaving Beijing this time and it's uncertain when I'll return. Just in case, I'll leave a few people with you."

Without waiting for her to express her opinion, he continued: "If you don't like Wang Yong and Wang Wu, I'll keep someone else."

He has many trusted men under his command, all of whom are loyal and capable.

The capital city was in turmoil and not peaceful, and she was pregnant now. He would not leave without a few trusted confidants.

Knowing that it would be useless even if he refused, Xie An Ning simply picked up the teacup and took a sip, too lazy to speak.

Wang Shaofu didn't care about her indifference and continued to explain in detail.

Xie An Ning became impatient as he listened, and interrupted, "Enough of the small talk. All you need to know is that I'm handing Wan'er over to you, and you have to bring her back to me safe and sound."

She only cares about her daughter.

That's right, apart from their child, there is no love left between them.

Wang Shaofu smiled bitterly, "Don't worry, no matter what, I won't let anything happen to my daughter."

Having said this, the inner hall fell silent again.

Facing each other, there was only speechless silence.

I don't know when it started, but they no longer have endless things to talk about.

"An Ning," Wang Shaofu said, "Don't you have anything you want to say to me?"

"..." Xie An Ning pursed her lips, "Are your injuries feeling better?"

"Don't worry, I'm much better now."

Receiving the requested concern, his spirits lifted immediately, and his eyes lit up, as if the new year had come.

Xie Anning turned her face away and didn't look at him.

Wang Shaofu tentatively held her hand on the table, "An Ning..."

He wanted to hug her so much.

I really want to hold her in my arms and let her sleep on the last night before leaving Beijing.

But he didn't even dare to mention it.

Even as soon as his hand touched her, it was quickly pushed away.

Avoid it like the plague.

Wang Shaofu slowly withdrew his hand that was suspended in mid-air.

A series of coughs, which had been suppressed for a long time, came one after another.

Xie Anning frowned when he heard this.

He looks like he is seriously ill.

The gunshot wound on his chest had clearly healed, but he still coughed day and night.

His body also became visibly thinner.

Feeling her gaze on him, Wang Shaofu smiled and said, "Would you like to hold me for a while?"

Xie Anning: “…”

She laughed out of anger, feeling that her own pity was ridiculous.

He turned around and walked out without looking back.

Inside the room, the smile in the man's eyes gradually faded away.

At the same time, I felt pained at how she could be so cruel to me.

At the same time, I was glad that she was cruel enough.

That way, ... I won't be sad for him anymore.

…………

The next day, at dawn, a convoy of dozens of people was ready to go at the gate of Xie's house.

This was the first time her daughter left her side since she grew up. Xie An Ning did not sleep well all night and there was a slight blueness under her eyes.

She got up early and was now wrapped in a fox fur coat, holding her daughter's hand and giving her earnest instructions.

Wang Shaofu stood by and watched the mother and daughter bid farewell to each other.

It was not until the sun rose that Xie Anning let go of his daughter's hand and turned to look at him.

Wang Shaofu understood and nodded gently, "Don't worry."

He smiled faintly and said, "You are alone in the capital, so you must be careful about everything. Whenever you go out, you must take proper precautions. Don't make my daughter and I worry."

As the new policy is implemented, there will be unrest outside, and the capital may not be peaceful.

Xie Anning hummed, "I have my own ideas."

Ishihara Qing, who was standing by, watched this heartwarming scene in silence.

Watching the carriage disappear from sight, Xie An Ning felt melancholy in her heart and sighed slowly. Just as she was about to turn around and go back home, she saw his somewhat gloomy expression and said helplessly, "Don't be so petty right now. I really don't have the patience to coax you."

Ishihara Qing was stunned. "How can you say that? I'm not the kind of person who makes trouble for no reason."

He was not angry. He held her hand and walked her into the house, protecting her. He said, "It's cold outside. Your health is more precious now. You should avoid being exposed to the wind."

Although it is spring now, the early spring climate is still unusually cold.

She is still trying to protect her pregnancy. If she catches a cold, it will be inconvenient to take medicine.
