Qiu Huixian stretched out her bare hands and carefully arranged the mountain plums inserted in the white porcelain vase.

Her fingertips gently played with the brightly colored petals.

Compared with Xie Changyu, Qiu Huixian believed that Xie Huan would think of sending flowers to herself.

In fact, it doesn’t matter who sent it, what’s important is that the flowers look good.

She was thinking this in her mind, but another picture was sketched in her mind——

The tall and majestic man, who was full of oppression just when he stood there, the cold and unsmiling man, broke off the mountain plum and held it in his hand.

What an inconsistent and weird picture?

Qiu Huixian lowered her eyes, a smile flashed across her eyes, and turned to go to the inner room.

Although there is nothing important today, entertaining the second aunt and the third aunt is quite labor-intensive.

Although it's not too late now, Priscilla Qiu is a little tired.

It turned out that Xie Changyu didn't go back to his house, and there were no other elders in his house except Xie Wei.

And Xie Wei never asked Qiu Huixian anything.

Therefore, Priscilla Qiu often rests by herself when she feels sleepy.

But now Xie Changyu is back...

Qiu Huixian was made inexplicably nervous by his eyes.

On the other hand... he is her husband. As a wife, it is not good for her to fall asleep before her husband arrives, so she always waits for Xie Changyu to come back before resting.

Occasionally, Xie Changyu came back very late due to something else, and she couldn't hold on and fell asleep.

Not surprisingly, he was woken up by Xie Changyu.

Xie Changyu is still at home today.

Priscilla Qiu knew without much thought that if she fell asleep first, she would most likely not be able to escape being woken up.

From this point of view, the person sent by the third aunt in the afternoon was actually quite good.

If he really took a concubine, could he go to the concubine's room to rest, and he wouldn't be like this...

Qiu Huixian was thinking wildly, leaning on the couch and yawned.

Yin'er said: "Otherwise, Miss, please rest first."

"It still doesn't work." Priscilla Qiu shook her head, "Bring me a book and I'll read it for a while."

"But the lady is sleepy..."

Yin'er walked to the bookcase, took a book and came back and said, "How about I go to invite the prince to come back?"

Qiu Huixian still shook her head.

Xie Changyu was at Xie Huan's place.

This is father and son's time together. What's going on when she sends someone to ask for help?

Qiu Huixian wished that Xie Changyu could stay with Xie Huan for a while, maybe they would hear what the child said, which would affect her temperament, and she could sleep peacefully tonight.

She took the book from Yin'er's hand and flipped through it casually.

A little sleepy at first.

After flipping through a few pages of the book, I felt as if I had overcome my sleepiness. I was not so sleepy, and I really started reading the book seriously.

At this glance, most of the book has been turned over.

Yin'er had to cut her hair several times, and even though she wasn't sleepy at first, she started to feel sleepy and yawned.

The yawn was quite loud.

Qiu Huixian rubbed her sore and numb neck and sat up, looking out at the sky and seeing a dark sky.

"What time is it?" Qiu Priscilla asked.

Yin'er quickly replied: "It will be the third watch in another quarter of an hour."

"this late?"

Qiu Huixian said in surprise and handed the book to Yin'er, "Why hasn't the Crown Prince come back yet?"

At this time, Xie Huan should have gone to bed long ago.

Yin'er shook her head: "I don't know. May I go and take a look?"

"I'll go see it myself."

Qiu Huixian said as she stood up, took the cloak handed over by Yin'er, put it on, lifted her skirt lightly and left the room.

As soon as we arrived at the hospital, a cold wind hit us. Qiu Huixian's previous comfort in reading was instantly blown away.

She took a deep breath, then calmed down, and took Yin'er out of the courtyard of Changfeng Garden.

Zaiyueju is not far from Changfeng Garden.

Qiu Huixian walked out of the yard and glanced in the direction of Zaiyueju. It was pitch black there.

Qiu Huixian paused for a moment, then stepped towards Zaiyue's residence.

When the guard saw her, he quickly stepped forward to salute and lowered his voice, "Young Master has already rested."

"What about the prince?" Qiu Huixian asked.

The guard replied: "The prince was just invited to the study by General Lei."

"understood."

After Qiu Huixian nodded, she thought about it and walked to the study.

In the Duke of Liang's mansion, Xie Changyu had a special courtyard, which was prepared for handling official business and also served as a guard's study.

It must have been for the convenience of living and taking care of children.

The courtyard where official business is conducted can be reached by walking a short distance from Zaiyueju and turning a corner.

When Priscilla Qiu arrived, she saw candles burning inside.

The young general who usually followed Xie Changyu led two soldiers to guard the corridor.

When they saw Qiu Huixian, they hurried forward to meet Li.

The young general said: "General Lei has just left, and the prince was about to return to the courtyard."

Qiu Huixian nodded, "Okay, I'll go back first."

But at this moment, Xie Changyu's voice came from the room: "Madam, please come in and talk."

Qiu Huixian paused in her steps.

The young general also looked towards Qiu Huixian: "Madam..."

"Ok."

Qiu Huixian nodded, and after the young man opened the door, he stepped into the room with his skirt slightly lifted.

As soon as she came in, Qiu Huixian was suddenly stunned.

Since this study is where Xie Changyu handles official business, Qiu Huixian is very strict with her rules and has never come in since she married into the Xie family.

There are dedicated people cleaning and cleaning here, so she doesn’t need to interfere.

Qiu Priscilla had thought about it before coming in.

The study room is nothing more than a bookcase, a collection of books, the four treasures of the study room, etc.

But Xie Changyu's study was very different from what she thought.

As soon as you enter the door, the first thing that catches your eye is the entire wall of weapons, which is decorated with simple wall lamps.

The dim candlelight fell on the various weapons. It should be a warm color, but it made Qiu Huixian feel a bit cold.

She turned her gaze to the left, and saw an entire wall of cabinets covered with armors, helmets, etc.

Qiu Huixian recognized two of them as the Mingguang armor that she had seen Xie Changyu wear before, and a set of chain mail. The rest of the footsteps she heard had specific names, but she could tell that they all had some origins.

There is a small weapons rack next to the cabinet. There are three long weapons on the rack, namely a gun, a halberd, and a spear.

The cabinet on the right contains saddles, quivers, bows, soft armor, wrist guards, etc...

"Come in."

Xie Changyu's voice came from behind the cabinet on the right, with the usual air of coolness in his calmness, "I'm over here."

Qiu Huixian took a deep breath, pinched the fingers hidden under her cloak, and slowly walked towards the place where Xie Changyu's voice came from.

It was not the bookcase or collection of books that Priscilla Qiu had thought before. Maps were hung on the left and right walls.

The largest map among them is very detailed.

The tower represents the city, the green velvet represents the mountains, and the blue represents the river.

There are also various signs.

Qiu Huixian could only understand the signs of attack and retreat, but she didn't quite understand what most of the other signs meant.

This place is more like his private territory than the study room where Xie Changyu handles official business. (End of chapter)
