The princess stepped forward and hugged Princess Shengya. After this farewell, we were thousands of miles apart, and we didn't know when we would see each other again.
"Shengya, we are not by your side. Everything must be discussed with my uncle. Don't act like a child again."
Princess Shengya nodded frequently.
"Don't worry, mother and concubine, my daughter has grown up and will no longer act willfully."
Chu Wenjin also stepped forward and clasped his fists.
"Don't worry, father-in-law and mother-in-law, I will definitely take good care of Shengya and never let her be wronged."
Regent Nanyan looked aside. Sikong Yu, who had also come to see him off but had not spoken a word, had a look of admiration in his eyes. He had benefited a lot from this free conversation.
Sikong Yu also cupped his fists and saluted him: "We know each other no matter how far away we are, and we are still neighbors thousands of miles apart. Prince Regent and Princess, please take care!"
"Brother Sikong, take care!"
Regent Nanyan then pulled the princess and got into the carriage, waving his hand for them to go back and send her off not far away.
Seeing the carriage of her parents and younger brother driving away, Princess Shengya blinked her eyes, tears welling up in her eyes.
Sikong Yu looked at the couple, said goodbye with a wink, and left first.
Chu Wenjin held Princess Shengya's hand to comfort her.
"Shengya, don't be sad. Every year from now on, I will take you to Nanyan Country to stay for a while. To accompany your father-in-law, mother-in-law, and Xiao Yi'er."
"Is this true?"
Princess Shengya immediately turned from sadness to joy and looked at Chu Wenjin expectantly.
Women have always followed their husbands when they get married. Even a royal princess cannot leave the three-quarter acre of land in the house.
Can Wen Jin really take her back to Nanyan Country once every year?
"Of course I take it seriously. The Emperor has appointed me to be in charge of the world's banks. I can't just be a hands-off shopkeeper. I have to visit various places every year. Why can't I bring my wife with me?"
"Bah."
Chu Wenjin was caught off guard and was given a sweet smell by Princess Shengya on his face.
"Husband, I will be a good wife and mother for you."
Chu Wenjin smiled meaningfully.
"Okay, then let's go back to the house quickly."
He took Princess Shengya and headed to the general's mansion.
Princess Shengya was puzzled.
"Why are you in such a hurry to go back home?"
Chu Wenjin carefully explained her doubts:
"A good wife and a good mother, don't you think that half of your identity is missing?"
Missing half? Princess Shengya reacted, and her face turned crimson. No matter how informal she was, she was still a woman after all.
"Oh, what are you talking about? It's still broad daylight."
Princess Shengya picked up her skirt and ran a few steps forward. Chu Wenjin followed with a smile. He took her hand back into his own. He covered his lips with his other hand and said:
"Second brother and second sister-in-law, they must be working hard, we have to work hard."
"You still said that!"
Princess Shengya was so angry that she moved her pink fist towards Chu Wenjin's arm. Chu Wenjin held it again.
"You can't do it in public. Go back to your home. Go back to your home first."
"you!"……
Behind them, the coachman's outstretched hand stopped in mid-air.
He muttered in a low voice: "Masters, we have a carriage, so we don't have to walk back!"
Jun Lingyun and Chu Yunxi were looking at the overall situation in the palace.
Unexpectedly, what started out as a simple act of kindness turned into a win-win situation after Chu Wenjin processed it like this.
Jun Lingyun ordered people to break many red plums and put them in the palace for Chu Yunxi to watch.
It's been snowy and slippery recently, so she has to go to the Royal Garden to avoid being greedy for the scenery. It won't be good if she catches the wind and cold again.
“It’s so beautiful and smells so good.”
Looking at these red plums, Chu Yunxi felt much happier.
Jun Lingyun came from behind, gently wrapped his arms around her waist, and touched her already somewhat bulging abdomen.
"Do you like it?"
Chu Yunxi looked back at him with a smile.
"Of course I like it. I'm just afraid that by folding the flowers like this, the imperial garden will become deserted."
Jun Lingyun didn't take it seriously.
"There are flowers that need to be folded. The entire imperial garden exists for the stream. Wherever the stream is, the imperial garden should be there."
Chu Yunxi's dimples were sunken deeply.
I thought that fortunately, this royal garden does not need to be provided to other masters to enjoy.
She can monopolize the beauty of this plum blossom without thinking about others.
"Ling Yun, I have figured it out. As long as you are willing to leave the harem vacant for me, I will never go against you even if I bear the bad reputation of monopolizing the emperor."
The corners of Jun Lingyun's mouth finally curved up. How long had he waited for Xi'er's determination?
"Now my reputation among the people is no longer that of a bloodthirsty Yama, but that of a benevolent king. This is all due to Xi'er. Xi'er is my blessing, and it is a blessing that no amount of harem can exchange for."
Chu Yunxi is funny.
"The free clinic was proposed by Doctor Zhang and perfected by Third Brother. How can you give all the credit to me?"
"If you hadn't founded Tianxia Medical College and instilled ideas into Dr. Zhang first, Dr. Zhang's ideas would not have reached beyond the palace."
Jun Lingyun said it was a matter of course, and Chu Yunxi's smile never faded.
"What about third brother?"
"If it weren't for you, my sister, my third brother wouldn't have so much trust in me as the emperor, and he would be much more restrained in his actions. Perhaps, these good ideas would not be mentioned at all. We don't seek merit, but we seek no faults."
Chu Yunxi nodded slyly.
"So, I can feel at ease with this credit?"
"That's natural."
As soon as Jun Lingyun finished speaking, Chu Yunxi looked at him sweetly.
"Your Majesty, is there any reward?"
Jun Lingyun raised his eyebrows slightly.
"What reward does Xi'er want?"
But what else did he not give to Chu Yunxi?
Chu Yunxi whispered vaguely:
"Husband, I want to eat the food you cooked."
But even so, with Jun Lingyun's ears, he could hear it clearly.
He raised his chin and narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Xi'er is the first person in history who dares to instruct the king of a country to cook."
Chu Yunxi felt the dangerous aura and quietly took a step away.
"Actually, it's not me who is greedy, it's your children, two children! They both want to taste their father's craftsmanship."
Jun Lingyun looked at Chu Yunxi meaningfully for a moment, then put his hands behind his back and left the palace without comment.
Chu Yunxi raised his index finger and scratched his eyebrows. Sure enough, the tiger's butt could not be touched.
But she didn't know why, and suddenly she was very greedy for Jun Lingyun's craftsmanship.
Now that her hope had failed, she had no choice but to think of other things to divert her attention.
"Siqi, come here."
Si Qi heard her master calling her and quickly stepped forward to ask:
"Queen, what are your orders?"
Chu Yunxi pulled her to sit down and asked seriously:
"Si Qi, do you want to study medicine?"
"Study medicine?"
Si Qi knew that the road to studying medicine was very long. It could take as short as three to five years and as long as more than ten years before he could become an apprentice.
She is already so old, is it still too late to study medicine?
"Your Majesty, it's not that I don't want to learn, it's just that I'm afraid that I won't learn well."
Chu Yunxi encouraged:
"I remember you said that fragrant medicines come from the same source. Since you are already familiar with pharmacology, you should be able to learn medicine much faster than others."
"Your Majesty, may I ask, why do you want me to study medicine?"
Although Si Qi knew that having more skills would not overwhelm her body, few women studied medicine. She wanted to know what Chu Yunxi wanted her to do by letting her study medicine.
