"According to his majesty's character, will he let you leave?" To be honest, An Xin's actions were somewhat shocking. After all, women in this era were required to follow the Three Obediences and Four Virtues. An Lang hoped very much that An Xin would live a happy life, but this was as difficult as ascending to heaven. He was a man, and he knew how strong Ning Yan's possessiveness of An Xin was, and how obsessive his love for An Xin was.
An Xin smiled helplessly and said: "I have my own way, so you don't have to worry about this, big brother."
Then An Xin paused and said: "If nothing unexpected happens, I will not return to Ningguo in the future. If you want to see me in the future, I'm afraid you can only go to Lancang..."
Seeing that Meng Bao was not around, but was taken away to play by the Second Madam, An Lang said, "What about the child? Should we leave him with His Majesty? If His Majesty takes a concubine, will he suffer alone?"
Listening to An Lang's analysis, An Xin felt very upset. But she could do nothing about it. Although An Xin had endured a lot for Meng Bao, she still owed Meng Bao something.
However, there are many things, such as some things in the Anguo Mansion, that An Xin cannot tell An Lang too much, because knowing too much about many things is not good. An Xin knows that this is unfair to many people. But only if she leaves for some time, everyone can live well. I hope time can heal all the scars.
An Lang knew that his sister was stubborn and proud since she was a child. Seeing An Xin so persistent, she must have encountered some irreconcilable conflicts. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "After my leg is healed, I will go to the border to guard it, and it will be convenient for me to visit you. No matter what you do, you must know that the Anguo Mansion and I are supporting you behind the scenes. This will always be your home."
An Xin felt a little sore after hearing An Lang's words.
"Brother!" An Xin called An Lang softly, just like when she always followed An Lang when they were little.
After a while, the second wife came in with the cute baby.
Seeing the Second Madam coming in, An Xin hurriedly called out sweetly: "Second Aunt..."
"Your Majesty, I am really sorry to trouble you with the matter of this boy of mine. I have even made you come all the way from the palace." The Second Lady said gently and calmly as always.
"What are you talking about, Second Aunt? We are all family, and we should help each other." An Xin was very happy to see that those who cared about her were getting better and better, and that some difficult things were now solved. But besides being happy, there was more melancholy and an inability to make a decision about the future.
Meng Bao was also quite excited, and said lively: "Mom, just now Second Grandma took me to see the house you used to live in. It was so beautiful there, and it really fits the temperament of a great beauty like you! In the future, Meng Bao will also find a better place than that!"
Looking at the cute baby's lively and cheerful appearance, An Xin couldn't help but feel some tenderness in her eyes.
An Lang looked at him with some kindness, but behind this kindness was more of a worry and heartache.
This child is so obedient and sensible. What will happen if An Xin is not by his side in the future? An Lang has some ideas and plans in his heart, and he must protect his little nephew.
Afterwards, the second wife hurried to An Lang's side and asked worriedly, "Son, is your leg feeling better?"
Seeing his mother looking very worried, An Lang said, "My leg is healed now and I have regained some feeling. According to my younger sister, I should be able to recover within half a year..."
An Lang did not tell the Second Lady the actual time of recovery because he was afraid that An Xin's behavior would be too conspicuous and cause unnecessary trouble.
Upon hearing this, the second wife was overjoyed and even had tears in her eyes. She had thought her son would have to sit in a wheelchair for the rest of his life. She said to An Xin with gratitude: "Xin girl, this time it's all thanks to you. Otherwise, what would my poor child do?"
Seeing this, An Xin quickly took out her handkerchief to wipe the tears of the Second Madam and said gently: "Second Aunt, you and Second Brother are my closest relatives in the world. I should treat you like this. You were also very good to me when I was a child, and I remember all of this in my heart."
The Second Madam looked at An Xin and secretly felt that the child had grown up. She then said with emotion, "Go back to the palace later today. Girl, you can have dinner with us and then go back to the palace. It won't take you too long."
An Xin originally wanted to spend more time with her family in the Anguo Mansion, and she didn't want to go back to the palace, which made her feel a little upset, so she agreed and said, "Okay."
Because the Second Master An and his father were always serving as officials away from home, the only people who were with them were An Lang, the Second Madam, An Xin and Meng Bao.
However, An Xin once accidentally heard Ning Yan say that soon, Father An and Second Master An would be transferred back to the capital. After all, they were old and it was not convenient for them to stay outside, so it would be better for them to recuperate in the capital.
At the dinner table, the second wife kept asking about Anxin's well-being. Anxin was very happy and ate a few more bowls of rice. But Anxin always felt that there were only a few of them at the round table, which made it a little empty. She still remembered that the last time they had a meal together, the family was happy and harmonious. At that time, no conflicts emerged, and it was as peaceful as usual. Grandfather, grandmother, and some other relatives were around. Relatives were around, and the people she got along with were also people she liked very much. She also made some good friends.
But all these blows came so suddenly that An Xin felt exhausted for a while.
The family happily finished the meal at the dining table, and Anxin returned to the palace in the carriage.
As soon as she entered the Pepper Room, An Xin saw Ning Yan standing there waiting for her, his expression as usual. When he saw An Xin, he said gently: "Qing Qing, you are back..."
An Xin remained silent and just glanced at him calmly.
Seeing this, the silhouette on the side pulled the cute baby to the side hall with great tact, leaving the space for the two of them.
Ning Yan wanted to reach out and hold An Xin's hand, but An Xin shook it off without leaving a trace.
Ning Yan stared at his hand blankly, his hand suspended in the air.
The atmosphere in the palace was very depressing. Ning Yan was the first to speak: "I really don't know much about Li Youran's situation. How could it have come to this? I originally just wanted him to go to Lingnan for a few years and then let him come back to take on important tasks. But I didn't expect it to end like this..."
Ning Yan walked closer, finally held An Xin's hand and said, "Qing Qing, you can scold me or hit me, but can you just ignore me?"
An Xin ignored Ning Yan and walked into the palace. Ning Yan followed her closely.
After a long time, An Xin was a little annoyed that Ning Yan kept following her, so she said: "You are so childish, always using such words. When has anything not been caused by you? Don't you just like hiding behind the scenes and playing chess?"
"Qingqing, you..." Ning Yan prepared himself to be hurt after hearing this, but he still felt hurt in his heart.
"Isn't that painful? I feel a thousand times more painful than you." An Xin said coldly.
