Chapter 205: Leaving the Palace? Not Leaving
Chapter 205: Leaving the Palace? Not Leaving
The next morning, the two entered the palace again and were carefully examined by the Empress Dowager.
I was reminded again and again to be careful.
The Queen was also waiting at the Empress Dowager's place early in the morning. Even though she heard that everything was fine, she still couldn't be completely relieved. She had to see it with her own eyes.
Seeing the two children jumping around and not looking scared at all, I was completely relieved.
After the Empress Dowager released the people, Jingyan and Qing'er immediately went to Baoyue Tower.
The emperor and Xiang Fei have been getting along pretty well these days. They can sit down and talk, and they can also eat together.
As for the emperor, he also respected Xiang Fei very much. Knowing that she could not accept him for the time being, the emperor maintained his gentlemanly demeanor and said goodbye as soon as it got dark.
Ziwei was afraid that the emperor would see her delivering the letter, so she chose to do it at night.
Originally, Hanxiang was calm, but Ziwei's sudden visit still caused ripples in her heart.
She was feeling sad and conflicted, and all her worries kept her awake all night.
"You are finally here!"
Seeing Jingyan and Qing'er, Hanxiang walked forward excitedly, but when she thought of how Jingyan was almost assassinated yesterday, worry appeared on her face again.
"You're not hurt."
After this morning's care, Jingyan has become very skilled at shaking his head to say he's fine, and then turning around to prove that he's really fine.
Seeing Hanxiang's conflicted expression, Qing'er was very sensitive to the fact that something was going on.
"Hanxiang, do you have something to say?"
These words hit Hanxiang's heart. She didn't bother to be polite with them and directly and skillfully pulled them into the inner room.
"Princess Huanzhu came to see me yesterday and brought me a letter from Meldan."
Jingyan instantly understood that the protagonists had completely made friends with Meldan and even wanted to help Meldan.
I just don’t know what Hanxiang is thinking.
Hanxiang sighed, "I burned the letter as soon as Ziwei left yesterday. To be honest, I admit that I still love Maierdan, but I have also decided to be a concubine in this palace."
After hearing what Hanxiang said, Jingyan understood. He could tell from spending time with Hanxiang these days that perhaps Ali and Zhuo protected her too well. Although Hanxiang was a little naive, she was a very kind person. She had her own persistence on major issues and was not as love-brained as portrayed in the drama.
As for why the characters in the play are so love-sick, Jingyan guessed that it might be because of the environment that affects people, and it is the case that people become redder when they are around red people.
"So, what did Meldan say?"
Mentioning Mai Erdan, Han Xiang's eyes welled up: "He, I've asked Huan Zhu Gege to tell him to just treat me as dead."
Jingyan nodded. Although he knew that Meldan would not give up, since Hanxiang had this attitude now, there was no point for Meldan to jump around anymore.
"Okay, Hanxiang, I think you did a great job. Don't be sad. Everything is fate. I hope Meldan can come to terms with it and go back to live a good life."
Hanxiang nodded. "But Maierdan is a very persistent person. I'm worried that he won't give up. Plus, he has Princess Huanzhu's help now. I heard from Princess Huanzhu that there are many people outside the palace helping him. I'm afraid he'll do something stupid."
Of course he would do it. He might sneak in in a few days. There is nothing that group of people dare not do.
After hearing Hanxiang's words, Qing'er finally understood. "You've said before that you eloped many times, and he's even been trying to snatch you away all along the way. It's clear that he's a man who won't turn back until he hits a wall. If you want him to come back and live a good life, maybe I have a way."
Hanxiang immediately grabbed a life-saving straw, "What can I do?"
"Perhaps you need to break his heart. As long as you show your resolve, or let him think you're in love with the Emperor, will he completely give up?"
Hearing this, Hanxiang hesitated. This was indeed a good idea, but she couldn't bear to hurt Meldan's heart. Meldan was already suffering a lot. Was it really necessary to do this?
Jing Yan thought it was a good idea: "A short pain is worse than a long one. Besides, he is so persistent because he is afraid that you will be wronged in the palace. If he knows that you are living a good and happy life in the palace, he will be relieved, right?"
Hanxiang was somewhat moved. The two of them didn't say anything, but just waited quietly for Hanxiang to make a decision.
After a long while, Hanxiang mustered up her courage and said, "Okay, then I'll go find Princess Huanzhu and tell her that I've fallen in love with the Emperor and am very happy. I hope Meldan can be happy too."
If a white lie can help Meldan let go of her words, she will bless Meldan if he can be happy.
Hanxiang was very decisive. After making the decision, she immediately went to Shufangzhai, and the two chatted for a long time.
After coming out of Shufangzhai, Hanxiang felt very relaxed.
Jin Lingzi was also very happy: "Princess, now that this matter is over, I can clearly feel your happiness!"
"Really?" Hanxiang smiled slightly. She only realized now that ever since Huanzhu Gege brought Meldan's letter last night, her stress and anxiety had been greater than the happiness of receiving the letter.
Although this was very unfair to Meldan, she seemed to have found her more important mission and meaning. She began to understand her father's words. Perhaps she was not born to live for love, and there were more important things waiting for her.
When she was in the Hui tribe, she felt guilty every time she met Merdan. She didn't understand it at that time, but she understands it now.
After learning of Hanxiang's attitude, Ziwei immediately rushed to Yonghe Palace.
After briefly explaining Xiang Fei's attitude, Ziwei asked, "Should we leave the palace and tell them this news?"
Yongqi was a little hesitant because Concubine Yu was still in shock over the assassination of Jingyan and the others, and she did not allow him to leave the palace.
Sure enough, before Yongqi could say anything, Cailian, who had been waiting outside the door, pushed it open and came in.
"Princess Huanzhu, please have some tea."
After serving tea, Cailian stood behind Yongqi very naturally, as if she would stop him immediately if he mentioned leaving the palace.
Thinking of this, Yongqi sighed: "You know, the situation in the capital is complicated right now. Not to mention my mother, even the emperor might not allow us to leave. Although we want to help Merdan, we can't make the emperor unhappy again."
Ziwei didn't say anything. Helping Meldan was a matter that was against the will of the world and would definitely make the emperor angry.
If their love story wasn't so touching and Xiaoyanzi hadn't insisted on helping, she wouldn't have rushed to help. Now that she realized Yongqi's attitude, Ziwei also went along with it.
"That makes sense. Besides, if the Fragrant Concubine has made her own choice, then it would be best for everyone to be safe."
Yongqi nodded. He originally thought that Xiang Fei and Meidan were deeply in love. Now that Xiang Fei has made her choice, they should respect and bless her.
"You're right. Once the storm has passed, we'll leave the palace and persuade him to let it go."
Ziwei was actually very happy that she didn't have to leave the palace to see Erkang, so she quickly stood up and said goodbye.
Seeing Ziwei running so fast, Cailian narrowed her eyes, as if their so-called friendship was not very sincere.
