The overwhelming desire swept over her, and Qiaochufang thought of a question: when did they return to his bedroom? But she couldn't say no, nor did she want to say no. He held her hands down and brought her into a world that belonged entirely to him...
*
The night shadows are hazy, Xia Mansion.
Xia Haibing saw the guests off, sighed, and said, "I called you over tonight for a drink, but you really treated it as a drink and didn't say a word! Well, if you don't want to say anything, I'll say it. Since we are both ministers in the same court, you should serve the emperor well and work for Dongling. The situation in Yuncang is turbulent, and you are all talented generals and ministers. Don't let your own selfishness affect state affairs. Only when generals and ministers are in harmony can it be a blessing for Dongling and the people. You have all lived in the lowest place of this country, so don't forget your ambitions back then."
Zong Pu bowed and said, "Yes, I will remember my foster father's teachings."
As he spoke, he looked at the man on the other side of Xia Haibing. Zuo Bing was silent for a while. Xia Haibing felt a little uneasy, but finally heard him say: "Teacher, I will never forget your kindness in helping me. If others don't offend me, I will never offend others."
Xia Haibing watched him walk away in the night, and sighed again, "Zong Pu, I have privately asked him about the princess's matter, and he has no other intentions. You don't have to—"
"No? Ever since he rescued the emperor from the prison, he has been targeting Dong Ning. Of course, he doesn't want Dong Ning, but to pave the way for future power... Foster father, Zuo Bing is a man who is unruly. There is one thing I have never told the emperor, and the emperor will not listen even if I say it. Zuo Bing's trip to Di Kingdom will surely cause chaos in Dongling. In five years, ten years... there will be a storm. However, as long as I am there, I will never let him succeed, no matter whether it is Dong Ning or Dongling! Later, I will ask for permission to go to Beidi to keep an eye on him."
Xia Haibing smiled bitterly, and then he left after watching the other man sneer. He looked up at the moon in the sky and said, "No need to thank me. I have helped three young men in my life. They are all outstanding people. What do you think will happen to them in the future?"
The answer was not the soft words and chuckles from many years ago, but the count of the night watchman on the street.

On the carriage leading to the Zong Mansion, Zong Pu told the coachman calmly, "You don't have to go to the Princess's Mansion tonight."
The groom saw that Zong Pu looked very good, and was a little surprised. This master would go to the princess's mansion every night to stay there, but why not tonight? He was never talkative, but he still asked, "Sir?"
"Just after the banquet in the palace, she agreed to my invitation for tomorrow. I said that I would wait until she came. Look, I finally got her."
The coachman just came to his senses. He heard him chuckle softly, whipped the horse, and drove away. The moon was bright and the stars were sparse. I think tomorrow will be a sunny day.
On the other side, Zuo Bing did not go home, but drove to the shore of Liuzi Lake.
A middle-aged man and a woman were standing there, looking at the pleasure boats in the middle of the lake, where there were bright lights and music.
The middle-aged man saw him coming, bowed, and said with a smile: "Sir, you are finally here. Miss has been waiting for a long time."
This person is the housekeeper of Fan Mansion.
Hearing the young lady mentioned, Zuo Bing's usually cold face softened slightly, but the young lady seemed to still be immersed in the singing and dancing in the lake, and did not notice his arrival until he took off his outer coat and gently draped it over her. The young lady turned around in surprise, "Big Brother."
He frowned slightly and said in a low voice, "Xiaoying, why are you here in this romantic place?"
"I heard that the Emperor and Concubine Qiao have also been here and encountered assassins here. We will soon go to Di Country. I am weak and you and Auntie don't allow me to go out more often. If I don't go out and take a look now, I will miss the chance."
"That's it for tonight, and it won't happen again."
"Big brother is the best."
She smiled and threw herself into his arms. Zuo Bing was slightly startled, then slowly hugged her.
Xiaoying felt a little bitter. If he and his mother had not been taken care of by her father since childhood, would he still be so good to her? He had his own admired beautiful girl in his heart, the fourth daughter of Tian Khan of Diguo, who was known for her talent. Thanks to this princess' constant mediation, Tian Khan was able to barely control the current situation.
But no matter what, she and he have been together for twenty years, a relationship that no one can compare to.
As she was thinking, the housekeeper reminded her, "Sir, at nightfall, the princess sent a letter."
"Qin Dongning?"
"Isn't she the unruly and sentimental princess?" Xiaoying smiled, covering her mouth. "She is the most annoying person. She often sends me things, saying that they are to nourish my body. Don't we have all kinds of delicacies in our house? What does she want?"
Fan Rusu liked this princess, but Zuo Bing didn't. She liked Fan Rusu, but she liked Zuo Bing even more.
Zuo Bing did not comment. The housekeeper respectfully took out the letter from his arms and handed it to him. Suddenly, he had an idea. It was night time and he was attending a banquet in the palace. Qin Dongning was also there. Why didn't he say something to him in person
Too.
He had been deliberately distancing himself from her these days. First, it was Shangguan Jinghong's intention, and most importantly, it was Fan Rusu who liked her, not him. He did all these things to her to avenge Zong Pu and to get closer to Shangguan Jinghong, but he didn't want to hurt her, and it was best to do it now.
When I opened the letter, I saw only a few lines of words on it, and the handwriting was not very beautiful.
"Zuo Bing, I'm leaving. Did you misunderstand something? In fact, even if I really like you, if you don't like me, just tell me. Are you afraid that I will pester you like I pestered Zong Pu before? No. I hope that next time we meet, you can let Brother Fan come out. I want to have a drink with him. Your father abandoned your mother back then. I don't know how you have been through all these years. You must be miserable. If not, there would be no you, because Brother Fan is not as strong and tough as you. Some things can only be supported by people who are strong enough. But, this is actually unfair to Brother Fan. I know that you have hatred in your heart and you have great ambitions, but the journey to Diguo is full of difficulties, so you must take care of yourself. After this farewell, I don't know when we will see each other again. I want to travel around. Brother Fan knows my dream. I want to meet strange people from various countries, and... to be chivalrous, hehe.
See you someday, I wish you all the best.
Also, I asked Brother Jinghong about Xiaoying'er's illness, and he said it was a root disease she had since childhood. It's not life-threatening, but it's hard to cure. I've already made an agreement with Sister Qiao that once there's good medicine in the palace, she'll send someone to deliver it to you in Diguo, without interruption.
Straw bag winter condensation
He is indeed a fool. For some reason, after reading this half-written letter, Zuo Bing's hands trembled slightly.
As he loosened his grip, the letter slipped out of his hand and flew into the lake with the cold north wind. He took a breath and wanted to chase after it, but Xiaoying came over and whispered, "Brother, it's cold here, let's go back."
He then stopped and tucked in her cloak.
See you someday… The words on the paper melted into the lake.
Zuo Bing did not look back.
We will never see each other again. He will never return to Dongling. His world is in Beidi. If he comes back one day, he might attack the country that has caused him so much suffering.

At the same time, a fast horse galloped towards Dongxiao Street. The rider was dressed in tight clothes and had a slim figure.
When passing by the gate of the Ministry of Justice, I saw several lush fruit branches extending from the wall.
How come these plum fruits don’t fall even in the winter
Having heard the Seventh Princess tell the story between this place and Qiaochu, she smiled gently, and the sadness in her heart was relieved a lot by this smile.
Should she go in and steal one to take away
The roots of the tree are lingering, and the roots are the most solid thing in the world. No matter where she is going, whether to visit the ugly princess of Yanhou in Yan State, to the desert country Wusun to find the long-lost civilization, or to the grassland country Beidi to look for the world-famous princess... she will come back.
I hope Zong Pu won't be furious when he finds out she left without saying goodbye tomorrow. He and the groom always waited outside her house, so she had no choice but to resort to this last resort.
Brother Jinghong, sister Qiao, brother Wu, sister Pei, take care.
Zuo Bing, take care. In fact, she might be a little hypocritical to him, but she understood what he meant.
She smiled, pulled the reins, and galloped into the night.
She didn't know that she had become a scenery in the eyes of others.
In the Ministry of Justice, a man and a woman sat side by side on the eaves, the woman was watching the girl disappear in front of the street with tears in her eyes. Touching the woman's slightly cold cheek, the man put the cloak on her.
"It's all because of you that I almost forgot to see her off."
The woman's face flushed and she spoke in a low voice.
The man smiled and said, "I had no intention of coming here to see her off. Qiaochu, she has grown up and no longer needs our care."
These two people were none other than the deceased Prince Dongling and his wife.
Qiaochu thought about it and nodded, but there was still a trace of sadness in his voice, "Everyone has left. Xiaoqi Niang, Linlang, Xiaojiu'er, Jingcong, Dongning, and in the future, the four great ladies will also leave and have their own homes."
"Well, your baby Min'er will also leave you. He will have his own queen in the future and will no longer need you as his mother."
Hearing Shangguan Jinghong's tone of gloating, Qiaochu was annoyed and punched him, "Hey, I'm feeling sad, can you cooperate with me?"
Shangguan Jinghong stared at her, and something suddenly filled his bright eyes, layer upon layer, those deep things seemed to wrap her up at once. Even though she had experienced so much and was so close to him, Qiaochu's heart still skipped a beat, just like the feeling she had when she first entered Feitian Palace that day, standing among thousands of people, watching him walk slowly from the inner hall to the main hall and admonish all the new disciples. He was wearing a snow-white dress, shining brightly, illuminating someone's eyes.
“There are bound to be many passers-by in a person’s life. No matter how they treated you in the past, good or bad, or whether they changed their minds over time, stayed or left, those who are willing to treat you well will always treat you well, and there will definitely be someone who will never leave you.”
The man's low voice flew in her ears with the wind. Her collar was a little tight. Qiaochu looked down in a daze. She saw a pair of scarred hands moving flexibly, fastening the belt of her cloak to protect her from the cold wind. Her eyes suddenly became wet again.
But she knew that this time they were tears of happiness.
