Chapter 193 Returning from a Thousand Miles (Part [-])
Jing Se's face changed greatly in shock, "What?"

"I don't know, don't ask me." Yin Xiangsi hugged her head and shook her head desperately, while stepping back, her expression was a little bewildered.

Jing Se and Fan Chen looked at each other, "What's going on?"

Just after the words were finished, there was a sudden "crash" in the release pool, but it was Yun Shen breaking through the water, soaked all over his body, holding a similarly soaked sachet in his hand.

Although it is sunny today, the surrounding snow has not completely melted, and the release pool is naturally extremely cold, and Yun Shen jumped down like this, Jing Se knew that it must be bitingly cold inside without even thinking about it.

Fan Chen immediately asked someone to come over and take Yun Shen to the Buddhist monastery to rest and change clothes.

When Yun Shen passed by Yin Xiangsi, he handed her the already soaked sachet.

Yin Xiangsi was full of anger, and knocked down the sachet with a clap of hands, "Who told you to jump?"

Yun Shen pursed his lips, but didn't answer a word, and quickly followed the guards to the monastery.

Jing Se came over, patted Yin Xiangsi on the shoulder, and said with relief, "Xiaoqi, it's okay."

Yin Xiangsi took a deep breath, no longer interested in visiting the temple fair before, and said in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I originally came with you, but I kept everyone's interest down."

"It's okay." Jing Se said: "I have been walking around with Fan Chen for a long time, and now I am tired, and I want to go back and rest earlier, why don't we wait for Shizi Yun to change his clothes, and then we set off to go back?"

"Okay." Yin Xiangsi could see that Jing Se was comforting her, she nodded, but felt uncomfortable, and silently put all the blame on Yun Shen.

When Yun Shen came back again, he had already changed into a suit of clothes. Because of the emergency, he didn't prepare special clothes when he went out, so he had to ask the master abbot of Longfu Temple to ask for a set of clean Taoist robes. Fortunately, he is tall and straight, and his skin is good, so he can barely control this suit.

"Ah-"

Yun Shen couldn't help but sneezed just after he got to Fanchen and the others.

"I think it's because of the cold." Jing Se said: "Young Master Yun has to go back to see a doctor and prescribe a prescription to drink medicine, otherwise the illness will be delayed, and we won't be able to go to Xiqin with us in two days."

Yun Shen smiled and said, "Thank you, Ma'am, for your concern. I'm fine."

He is a martial arts practitioner. When he was practicing martial arts in the past, he had experienced more brutal training in ice and snow days, but it was nothing more than going into the water to grab a sachet.

After hearing what he said, Jing Se was speechless.

On the way back, Yin Xiangsi was very quiet and didn't say a word.

After getting into the carriage, Jing Se leaned gently in Fan Chen's arms and fell asleep, ignorant of the movement outside.

Yun Shen probably also saw that Yin Xiangsi was in a bad mood, so he wisely didn't bother her.

A group of people went to Shengjing without a word.

Sending Fan Chen and Jing Se to Prince Ning's Mansion, Yin Xiangsi didn't stop any longer, and went back to Princess Mansion without even entering the gate of Prince Ning's Mansion.

Yun Shen watched him go away before dismounting to bid farewell to Fan Chen.

Fan Chen gave him a few words to let him have a good rest after going back, and walked into the gate with Jing Se who was sleeping soundly.

*
On the day they set off to return to West Qin, Yin Che personally boarded the city wall to see them off.

Before leaving, he called Jing Se aside alone.

"Princess Ning, I have a letter here, I hope you can help me deliver it to someone."

As he spoke, he slowly took out the envelope from his pocket and handed it to Jing se.

Jing Se glanced at it, but there was no signature on it, and the envelope was blank.

"Who does the emperor want me to give the letter to?"

Jing Se was quite puzzled. Logically speaking, she had not met Yin Che a few times when she was in Xiqin, so she was not acquainted with him at all. How could Yin Che find her?

"That person..." Yin Che looked into the distance, and said faintly, "The princess should know him. He speaks clearly."

"It's her?" Jing Se's heart was shocked, "Miss Chuchu is not in Jinling, I will try my best to contact the emperor when I go back, and promise to deliver the letter to her."

Yin Che glanced at Jing Se gratefully, "Thank you."

Jing Se hurriedly said: "The emperor is serious."

Putting the envelope into her wide sleeves, Jing Se went back to the carriage.

Yin Che stood tall on the city wall, but his gaze was directed towards the direction of Xiqin, with involuntary helplessness... and longing.

On the carriage, Fan Chen asked Jing Se, "Why does the Emperor leave you alone?"

Jing Se said truthfully: "He asked me to help bring a letter to Miss Chuchu."

"Chuchu?" Fan Chen looked puzzled, "Who?"

Jing Se explained, "It's the younger sister of the secret guard Yanfeng next to Bo Qinghuan. When the girl from Qianlou was still there, I followed her to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion several times, so I got to know her."

Fan Shen was stunned, "So that's the case, I never thought that the person Yin Che likes is her."

Jing Se didn't know that Yan Chuchu liked Bo Qinghuan, she was just talking about Yan Chuchu's own temperament, "I think this girl is pretty good. She has been running around the Yamen with her father and brother since she was a child, and she is happy in the rivers and lakes. Now she is from the Cangzhou Mansion. The famous female catcher!"

Yin Xiangsi vaguely heard Jing Se's conversation outside, rode up and approached, and asked, "Sister-in-law, I heard you talking about Yan Chuchu, is it the Yan Chuchu I knew in Xiqin?"

Jing Se raised the curtain, "Yes, I'm talking about her."

"What's wrong with Chuchu?" Yin Xiangsi couldn't help being puzzled, and immediately smiled: "That little girl, I haven't seen her for a long time, it seems that after Ali left, she went directly back to Cangzhou Mansion, and never saw her again. Come to Jinling!"

Jing Se kept silent about Yin Che, and smiled faintly, "It's nothing, I just mentioned it in passing when I suddenly remembered."

"That time, if Chuchu and my emperor's cousin hadn't gone to Nanxue Mountain to pick herbs, Ali's gray hair would not have returned to normal, and my brother would have left a lifetime of regrets."

Hearing Yin Xiangsi mention that Miss Lou's black hair turned white overnight and her face was wrinkled during the onset of illness, Jing Se couldn't help but think of Jing Wan Bai.

When Jing Wanbai was disfigured, Jing Se made a bottle of Jade Muscle Lotion and gave it to her. In the formula of Jade Muscle Lotion, Jing Se took the opportunity to take the blood from Miss Lou.

This kind of poison will not attack in a short period of time, and the incubation period is relatively long, at least two years.

Counting the days, it has been more than a year since Jing Wan Bai used Jade Muscle Lotion.

Jing Se secretly thought, if Jing Wanbai has been keeping quiet from now on, then after he goes back, he will quietly take the antidote for her, and slowly detoxify her body, so that she won't die from the poison.

Jing Se is a person who can distinguish right from wrong. She is cold-blooded and treats people right.

Jing Wanbai used to be a monster, but in fact, she was instigated by her mother Su Aoyu, and she had already been punished accordingly.

Now that Su Aoyu is gone, she is alone in the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, unable to overcome the storm.

It's just that Jing Wanbai's temperament is not very good, but she doesn't directly use insidious tricks like Jing Shurao, so she is not guilty of death.

The speed of returning to Xiqin was even slower than when she first came to marry her. Because of Jing Se, who was pregnant, she took a rest as soon as she arrived at the post station, and would never go too far.

As always, Fan Chen gave her a massage to soothe her muscles and activate her muscles before going to bed.

"Fan Chen, you used the identity of King Donglining when you married me, and now you suddenly go back, have you thought about how to explain it?"

Lying lazily on the bed, Jing Se flipped through the books while enjoying Fan Chen's increasingly proficient massage techniques.

Fan Chen smiled, "Of course, before we set off, Yin Che had already passed on his credentials to West Qin."

"Certificate?" Jing Se raised her eyebrows, "What's written on it?"

"I didn't look at it." Fan Chen massaged lightly, "But I guess, it's probably because you, the concubine princess, put the friendship between the two countries first, and then clarify my identity."

Jing Se was amused, "Is this considered to be courtesy before soldiers?"

First tell Gu He that Xiqin and Dongli are now in the same family, and then clarify the identity of King Ning Fanchen.

In this way, even if Gu He wanted to convict Fan Chen of treason, it would be impossible, because with Jing Se, the concubine princess sitting in the middle, once Gu He made a move, he would not give Dongli face.

With her eyes brightened, Jing Se said, "Okay, Yin Che is really not bad, and he has come up with ways to deal with the government."

"Of course." Fan Chen agreed: "After all, he has been the prince for several years and has won the hearts of the people. Now that he is the emperor, he has naturally displayed all his talents."

"Then, when we return to West Qin this time, do we go directly to Chu Palace?" Jing Se asked again with a blushing face.

Thinking of the scene of going to see her mother-in-law with a big belly, her cheeks became hot and she wanted to crawl into the ground with embarrassment.

"Of course." Fan Chen looked at her with a smile, "Chu Palace is our home!"

Since the last visit to the temple fair, Yun Shen had very little contact with Yin Xiangsi. This time he was ordered to send Jing Se and Fan Chen back to the country, and he was very quiet along the way, as if he didn't exist.

After Jing Se fell asleep, Fan Chen quietly closed the door and came out, and saw Yun Shen sitting on the opposite roof.

Fan Chen flew up, sat down beside him, and asked with a smile, "It's so late, are you watching the stars alone on the roof?"

Yun Shen nodded along, "Yes, I want to see the difference between Xiqin's stars and Dongli's."

Fan Chen could hear the meaning of this sentence, he said: "The stars of Xiqin are naturally different from those of Dongli, otherwise, how could anyone come here to see the stars of Xiqin?"

Yun Shen's eyes darkened a little, his thin lips were slightly pursed, his eyes swept over Yin Xiangsi's room intentionally or unintentionally, but he saw that the door of her room was locked tightly, and the people inside had no intention of coming out at all.

"It's getting late, Mr. Yun should go back and rest earlier." After not sitting for a long time, Fan Chen stood up and went back to the room.

Yun Shen raised his eyes, looked at the few stars shining coldly in the night sky, and secretly lost his mind.

*
At the same time, the West Qin Regent Palace.

Holding the letter of credence sent by Dongli in his hand, Gu He carefully read every word.

When he saw the last few lines that clarified Fan Chen's identity, the corners of his thin and delicate lips slightly raised, making the palace eunuchs on the side tremble with fear.

"Pa—" Putting the letter of credence on the table with a sound, Gu He stood up slowly, stood outside the door with his hands behind his back, slightly raised his head, and fixed his eyes on the brightest star.

Fan Chen, finally waiting for your return, it's time for a real showdown between us!
