Xiao Yan knew that Mei Xue was going to move out of the palace, so he rushed to Zhuyuan immediately.

Mei Xue was writing a manuscript, and when she saw Xiao Yan opening the curtain panting, she pointed to the round chair opposite and motioned him to sit down.

Xiao Yan was so angry that his face turned pale, and as soon as he sat down, he asked if Emperor Mingde asked her to move away from the bamboo garden.

Mei Xue shook her head, put the pen in her hand on the pen holder, and without looking at Xiao Yan, said while arranging the manuscripts she had just written:
"Of course not. I want to move out. It just so happens that His Royal Highness rewarded the house, so I just moved in."

Xiao Yan sneered and said:

"His reward is really timely!"

Mei Xue raised her head, glanced at Xiao Yan and said:

"Don't say such things again."

Xiao Yan actually understood everything in his heart, and after sitting sullenly for a while, he said:

"I want to go out for a walk, so I just go to Lilac to look at the house for you."

Mei Xue nodded, took out a folding fan from the drawer and handed it to Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan opened it and found that there were actually two beauties with blond hair, blue eyes and white skin painted on it. He immediately opened his mouth and smiled and asked Mei Xue where she got such a good thing.

"I drew it myself, don't you like it?"

Mei Xue leaned against the back of her chair and asked with a smile.

The original worries in Xiao Yan's heart were swept away, and he laughed loudly and said:
"Miss Mei, I really admire you. Of course I like this fan, it looks better than the fan Liang Jinsong showed off to me a few days ago."

While speaking, Xiao Yan put his fan into his belt, and happily put the fan that Mei Xue gave him into Lilac in his hand.

Mei Xue watched Xiao Yan's back go away, and the smile on her face gradually dissipated.

Li Jinzhi came to Zhuyuan in the afternoon and told Meixue something.

There is only a piece of forest between Wanlin Bookstore and the royal residence in Dingxiangli, but they belong to two streets opposite to each other.

The bookstore was originally looking for a buyer, so Song Zhijie arranged for someone to buy the bookstore.

"After you move in and arrange the house properly, you can start digging secret passages for emergency use."

Li Jinzhi was talking, and reached out to stroke Mei Xue's hair.

These days, the smile on his face is obviously much less.

Mei Xue smiled, comforted him and said:

"I don't care what other people say. I will bring my two children back to visit you and Mr. Song in the future. If you miss the children, just let them go."

Li Jinzhi forced a smile, stretched out his hand to hold Mei Xue into his arms and said:

"You know, I'm more afraid of being separated from you."

The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and the pastry shops on the street have put up various mooncakes for sale early.

Princess Changle came to Yulinwei Yamen on horseback, threw the reins into Liu Qi's hands, and went in with a gloomy face without saying a word.

Liu Qi whispered what happened to Yun'er who was following behind.

Yun'er was also a little annoyed, snorted and said:

"It's not because Miss Mei is going to move out of the palace. His Royal Highness is bullying too much, which has made the princess very unhappy these days."

Liu Qi naturally heard about Mei Xue's plan to move, and he didn't know what to say.

Shen Qingyang was busy with official duties in the study, when he saw Princess Changle enter the door, he didn't speak, but lowered his head and went about his own business.

Princess Changle sat down opposite Shen Qingyang, was silent for a while and suddenly burst into tears and said:
"Why did he become like this? His three children were all rescued by Mei Xue, and cousin Jinzhi was also loyal to him. If not, Concubine Shu and King Lu would not..."

Before Princess Changle finished speaking, Shen Qingyang raised his head and interrupted her:

"If you don't want to kill Li Jinzhi, don't say such things in the future."

Princess Changle sobbed for a while, but finally nodded.

She couldn't say these words in front of Queen Mother Jing'an and Princess Chenyang, so she could only come to Shen Qingyang.

Shen Qingyang continued to be busy with the things in his hands, Princess Changle was lying on the desk in a daze, and fell asleep not long after.

The eye circles were still red, and there was a look of grievance on his face.

The corner of Shen Qingyang's mouth curled into a smile, and he got up to get his cloak and put it on Princess Changle's body.

It was almost noon, Liu Qi led a soldier to bring food into the house, and Princess Changle sat silently opposite Shen Qingyang to eat.

But after only taking a few bites, she put down her chopsticks and looked out the window in a daze.

Shen Qingyang glanced at her and asked:

"Do you think Beijing is not as good as Qingzhou?"

Princess Changle thought for a while, then shook her head and said:

"Although I am happier in Qingzhou, my mother was suffering at that time, so I am still willing to live the life I am now."

After finishing speaking, she raised her head, looked firmly into Shen Qingyang's eyes and said:
"And here you are."

The chopsticks in Shen Qingyang's hand paused, but he immediately lowered his eyes, changed the subject and said:
"Miss Mei is about to move, you will often go to help her in the future. Mingze's child will definitely not be easy to take away from Li Jinzhi.

Remember, you are not allowed to mention Miss Mei's move in front of the prince, let alone show him face. "

Princess Changle was a little disappointed, but still lowered her head and responded sullenly.

Li Mingze relied on Li Jinzhi very much. In order to prevent him from crying, everyone deliberately waited for him to fall asleep before setting off.

Mei Xue hugged Li Mingze, Ping An refused to let others hug her, and followed her slowly while holding Mei Xue's skirt with her small hands.

The things had been shipped to Lilac early in the morning, and behind Mei Xue, Yu Rong and Zhang Momo followed, as well as the two nurses who had been following them from Chengdu.

Jiu'er hugged Nanny Mei, and walked beside Mei Xue with a sullen face.

Li Jinzhi and Song Zhijie stood at the gate of the courtyard to see Mei Xue off, while Gao Yuan and Peng Liang stood behind them with very bad expressions.

Guanshi Liang was carefully arranging everyone to get into the car, but at this moment the princess of Changle came galloping quickly.

Turning over from the horse, Princess Changle said nothing with a cold face, walked to Mei Xue, hugged Ping An in her arms, and got into the front carriage first.

Mei Xue stopped in front of Li Jinzhi, comforted him and said:
"Your Majesty, don't worry, if the child is crying too much and can't be coaxed, I will send someone to invite you."

Mei Xue now has to do acupuncture for Li Mingze the next day, and every time he cries for a long time.

Li Jinzhi nodded, reached out to cover the thin hood on Li Mingze's head, and then helped Mei Xue to send her into the carriage.

Watching the several carriages drift away, Li Jinzhi's eyes were still red after all, and even Song Zhijie turned his face away.

Li Mingze slept soundly in Mei Xue's arms, Ping An was very sensible, and sat quietly in the arms of Princess Changle.

Princess Changle looked at Mei Xue with a calm expression, endured it for a while and said angrily:
"I'll ask my grandmother to marry you and my cousin, and see what else he can do."

Mei Xue raised her eyes, looked at Princess Changle calmly and said:
"If you can do this, you won't wait until today. Princess, I am very grateful for your kindness, but please don't do this, because it will only bring more trouble and pressure to the son."

Princess Changle obviously understood in her heart, bit her lip and turned her face away when she heard the words.

Although she has a carefree personality, she has lived in such a complicated big family since she was a child. After arriving in the capital, she was in the royal family, and there were fights and calculations everywhere.

How could she not see clearly the situation of her cousin Li Jinzhi?
Xiao Yan had already waited with Liang Jinsong at the gate of Lilac's house, he was still dressed in fancy clothes, waving the Western beauty fan that Mei Xue gave him.

Princess Changle kicked him as soon as he got out of the car, and said impatiently:

"What are you having fun with?"

Xiao Yan didn't care about her either, and shouted after receiving Ping An:
"Walk around, I've already arranged the banquet, let's have a good meal, I'm almost starving to death."

Seeing Xiao Yan walking in front of him holding Ping An, Mei Xue smiled and said to Princess Changle in a low voice:

"Young Master Xiao has good intentions, he did this on purpose because he was afraid that everyone would be in a bad mood."

Princess Changle said "um" without saying a word, and took Li Mingze from Mei Xue's arms and hugged her.

The new house is indeed as Li Jinyu said, it is large and elegant, and it has been renovated. Not only is it complete with all kinds of utensils, but even the flowers and trees are thriving.

After the meal, the four of them sat and talked for a while, Princess Changle went to see off Xiao Yan and Liang Jinsong, and when she came back, she found Mei Xue was drawing in the study.

On the off-white rice paper, Li Jinzhi smiled gently, and his blue clothes seemed to be fluttering in the wind.

Princess Changle was a little puzzled. In her impression, Mei Xue had never been an emotional person.

Mei Xue didn't speak, she focused on finishing the final touches, then straightened up and put the pen on the pen stand, then smiled and said to Princess Changle:

"The emperor's grandson is very attached to his son. I dried this painting and hung it up. It may be useful for him to see it when he is crying."

Princess Changle's eyes were reddened instantly, and she choked up and asked Mei Xue:

"He treats you and cousin so much, don't you hate him at all?"

Mei Xue shook her head lightly, walked to the window and looked at the flowers and trees outside and said:

"Since the time when the eldest son and I decided to take the emperor's grandson out of the palace, I no longer regard him as the emperor's grandson's father, because I think he is not worthy."

"Mei Xue, don't you think it's hard work? Look at the people around you, old and young, sick and sick, and... and... I can't see the future of you and cousin."

Princess Changle cried out.

Mei Xue was still smiling, and comfortingly touched Princess Changle's shoulder and said:
"Princess, I am a different person from you. I have been starved, I have been frozen, and I have struggled from the blood to live again.

I have seen the darkest heart, and the coldest world.Therefore, the situation in front of me is far from depressing me.

Xiaopingan, the emperor's grandson, and my aunt, maybe they are all my burdens to outsiders.

But for me, they are warmth, strength, and the reason why I can still love this world. "

Having said that, Mei Xue smiled coldly again:
"As for him, as for them, I have tried my best to do what I should and can do. If one day, they must let me have nowhere to go, I will definitely not catch them without a fight.

Princess, you should believe that I have this ability, so you don't have to feel sorry for me. "

The autumn wind suddenly picked up and rushed into the window fiercely, messing up Mei Xue's long hair and blue shirt, but her expression remained unchanged, and she never even moved her eyes.

Princess Changle finally nodded with sobs, stepped forward and hugged Mei Xue.
