The Qing Palace Never Meets Spring

On the other side, Su Peisheng went to Kangxi and said, "Your Majesty, the Thirteenth Princess Consort did not want to leave. I thought it would be inappropriate for her to kneel outside, so I brought her inside. However, the Thirteenth Princess Consort is very honest. She knelt down as soon as she entered the door, and I didn't even have time to say anything."

Kangxi snorted: "I thought she would come over as soon as she was released, but I didn't expect her to be able to keep her composure and wait for several days."

Qingwan remained kneeling for an unknown period of time. She could occasionally hear some sounds, but they were not clear. She would only be startled when Yinzhi was mentioned, and would concentrate on listening for any words or phrases that might be Yinxiang's.

Kangxi's voice could be heard coming from afar:

“Yin Si has always been controlled by his wife, who is the daughter of Prince An, Yue Le. Her maternal uncle allows her to be jealous and do evil, which is why Yin Si has not had a son to this day.”

She could only vaguely make out a few words of what followed. Qingwan pondered Kangxi's words. Yinzhi had just had a son and a daughter this year, which gave Yinzhi and his wife confidence.

However, in his fury, Kangxi denied the existence of the two children and blamed the Eighth Prince's wife for all the mistakes.

Qingwan was somewhat relieved, relieved that Guarjia had given birth to two children before her, and that both children were healthy.

Fortunately, she did her best to save the Second Prince, even though he was in poor health.

After venting his anger, Kangxi remembered Qingwan, who was still kneeling: "Send her to Yinxiang and let her ask for herself. I have no face to say anything."

"Yes, sir." Liang Jiugong quickly responded and then gestured.

Qingwan's knees felt so sore from kneeling that they didn't even belong to her anymore. She was thinking about whether to collapse when a young eunuch entered the room.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty asks you to rise."

"Is His Majesty willing to see me?"

Qingwan was helped up and limped to a chair to sit down.

"His Majesty said that you should ask the Thirteenth Prince if you have any questions, so he sent someone to take you to see the Thirteenth Prince."

This was truly unexpected. After all, the Second Prince's wife hadn't even gone to Yuqing Palace yet, so why was she sent to Yinxiang's side? She had thought it over and over again before coming, and had prepared countless plans in her mind, but in the end, she didn't even get to see Kangxi.

She rubbed her knee and asked again, "What about His Majesty?"

The young eunuch shook his head: "Liang Anda said that His Majesty is not angry now." But that might change in a while.

"Okay, thank you for letting me know, young master. I'll leave as soon as my leg is better."

The young palace maid who had previously given her the cushion also said, "Princess, please wait a little longer. I'll get you a hot water bottle to warm your hands; it's getting windy outside."

"No need, I appreciate your kindness, thank you."

Although Yi Huan is no longer here, the kindness she left behind has still benefited her, as well as Su Peisheng and the palace maid today.

After Qingwan looked around, she found that Muxiang was not there. Just as she was about to ask someone, a guard said, "The girl who came with the Princess Consort has gone back to pack her things. We will take the Princess Consort directly to the Thirteenth Prince. Please come with us, Princess Consort."

This time, Qingwan left with them without hesitation.

After leaving the palace, the sedan chair swayed and stopped at the entrance of a small courtyard in an alley.

To be honest, the place where Kangxi chose to confine Yinxiang was actually quite nice. Although the courtyard was not large, it was clean and tidy.

There are three main rooms in the middle, as well as side rooms and a small kitchen.

Qingwan slowly stepped into the courtyard. Yinxiang heard the sound and came out. He thought there was news from outside, but he was caught by Qingwan, who was looking around the courtyard.

After surveying the entire courtyard, Qingwan looked at Yinxiang, who was still on the steps, and said, "Your Highness, this place is indeed a bit dilapidated."

Apart from yesterday, the only people Yinxiang saw each day were the palace maids and eunuchs who delivered things at fixed times, and they didn't speak to him. Today, when he heard the commotion outside the door, he thought it was Kangxi making some other move, but he didn't expect that the person who came was Qingwan.

My heart was pounding, and when I heard Qingwan say this, I felt somewhat helpless.

He had been following Qingwan's gaze when she entered the room, but after hearing her words, he also felt that it was a bit simple, even though he hadn't thought so when he lived there himself.

His hands, which were behind his back, clenched tightly with some tension. His voice, which he rarely used to speak these days, was still a little hoarse. He cleared his throat, hoping to draw everyone else's attention to himself as well.

He simply waved his hand and said, "You can all leave now."

Seeing that everyone else had obediently left, Qingwan raised an eyebrow. It seemed that although he was imprisoned, his princely airs had not disappeared.

The gate slowly closed, and Yinxiang, still high on the steps, stretched out his hand to Qingwan: "Come here, come to me."

Qingwan looked up and saw that he was still a little tired, so she obediently walked towards him. After walking up two steps, she saw that Yinxiang's hand had not been withdrawn, so she placed her hand in Yinxiang's hand.

As soon as it was placed in Yinxiang's hand, she felt a force, and before she knew it, she was in Yinxiang's arms.

Yinxiang's hand was placed tightly on her waist, and his head on her neck could not be ignored either.

She could sense that Yinxiang was very excited, and seeing that he wouldn't let go for a long time, she could only reach out and pat Yinxiang's back to comfort him: "Master, you can't breathe."

Yinxiang chuckled softly in her ear, then with a sudden burst of strength, he lifted Qingwan up and carried her over the steps to his front.

"You know you've already been exposed, so why are you still here?"

"Actually, it's not that dilapidated," Qingwan said. "If it were an ordinary family, this would be a rare courtyard. It's just that I've lived in the palace since I married you, so it is indeed a bit dilapidated compared to the palace."

When Yinxiang heard her say that, he laughed again. Even Qingwan looked at him strangely, thinking that he was laughing a lot more today.

"I'm sorry to have wronged you."

"I'm not upset. As long as you don't make me cook, make the bed, or fold the blankets, that's fine. After all, I don't know how to do those things."

"No." Yinxiang said helplessly, "Although Father has imprisoned me, all my treatment is the same as before. Except for not being able to go out, you can still enjoy the life of a prince's wife."

But,” Yinxiang paused, “if you come, things might be different.”

Qingwan looked at him with disbelief and disbelief: "Then I shouldn't have come. Is it too late to go back?"

Yinxiang angrily bit her earlobe. Qingwan touched her bitten earlobe; she wasn't wearing earrings today.

But after Yinxiang did that, she felt it was real. She raised her hand and hugged Yinxiang's waist, silently leaning against him and listening to the sounds coming from his chest.

Although she harbored some resentment towards Yinxiang because of what had happened these past few days, seeing Yinxiang finally gave her a pillar of support, and she no longer needed to force herself to be strong.

This time it was Yinxiang's turn to pat her gently and comfort her. After being outside for a long time, Qingwan felt a bit cold from the wind. She straightened up and asked, "Does your room have a heating system?"

"Are you cold?" Qingwan nodded.

Yinxiang snorted twice: "Then why did you chase after me?"

Qingwan followed him into the room and decided to honestly say, "My father punished me to come here."
