He Tian only realized later, to his surprise, that Tang Xian had known all along.

He actually knows!

No wonder, no wonder it's like this!

Fu Jiujiu originally wanted to get some information out of him, but seeing his state, she probably wouldn't be able to. It seemed that Tang Xiu hadn't treated him well at all.

With just one look, Tang Xian understood her meaning.

"Chirp, chirp, go over there and wait for me."

Fu ChouChou looked at him in surprise, knowing he wanted to do it himself, but why was he pushing her away?

Go on, be good!

Fuju chirped helplessly, she's seen Tang kill people before and wasn't afraid. His worry was really unnecessary.

But she still obediently walked away.

He Tianlin, unexpectedly clever in this predicament, realized his situation and cried out, "Please don't kill me! I beg you, don't kill me!"

Fu Jiujiu didn't look back, striding into the forest.

As soon as she stood still, the person behind her opened their arms and gave her a big hug.

"Those who hurt you, I will handle them myself. But, I don't want you to have nightmares of me killing people. When you dream of me, it should always be the good side of me."

Fu JiuJiu smiled and nodded. "Good!"

He Tianlin died, and the world became quiet.

……

Tang Xiu found that when He Tianlin was gone, he went crazy.

He came to the dungeon and saw the hole large enough for one person to leave, knowing that He Tianlin had left from there.

But he felt that He Tianlin must be hiding something.

After all, with his special abilities, how could outsiders know that He Tianlin was hiding underground?

He clenched his fists, his back to the guards, standing tall and proud. "Go, bring him back to me. I will search the ends of the earth, turn over every stone, until I find him."

"Yes!"

He Tianlin, you can't escape.

He Tianlin's presence made Tang Xiu feel more at ease, and even a little fearless.

Now, however, because of He Tianlin's escape, he has lost this sense of pride.

It was at this time that Ji Ci, the concubine, came to find him. She had intended to act coquettishly and ask Tang Xiu to keep her company tonight, but unexpectedly, Tang Xiu was in a bad mood, even terribly so. He directly drove her away.

The concubine Ji was scolded and at a loss.

Tang Xiu got up, not wanting to stay in the room anymore. Now, whenever he saw the room, he thought of He Tianlin escaping...

As he was walking, he suddenly looked up and realized it was Suwen's courtyard.

The music drifted on the air, and he followed it, drawn in by its melody without conscious thought.

Since she was his own woman, he could go wherever he pleased.

Thinking of this, Tang Xiu strode into the courtyard. The servants here were all under Tang Xiu's command, but they didn't dare to treat Su Wen lightly either.

Tang Xiu entered the room, Su Wen only paused for a moment before continuing to pluck the strings of the qin.

Tang Xiu adjusted himself and calmed down. Then, he sat there quietly, listening attentively.

He glanced at the tea on the table. It had just been brewed, and it was his favorite kind.

He smirked. No wonder the maid had that astonished expression when she first came in.

Did she guess she was coming?

He certainly wouldn't think that the Suwen trapped in this small space would have anything to do with He Tianlin's escape.

The music stopped, Tang Xiu raised an eyebrow and looked over. His tea was already half-drunk.

"Before anyone even asks, you have my favorite tea ready. You know me so well, and yet you say you're heartless?"

Su Wen chuckled softly, feeling her way towards him. Tang Xiu instinctively reached out his hand, but she didn't take it, instead feeling her way down to sit beside him.

The

Suwen wants to say, that's just a habit from the last life.

It just slipped out of my mouth. By the time I reacted, the maidservant had already brewed the tea. She didn't want to waste such a good cup.

And she also knew that Tang Xiu's mood should not be good today.

She didn't want to anger him.

He got angry, but he wasn't benefiting from it anyway. Su Wen isn't stupid.

"I like this tea too, and it's from the Crown Prince. He wouldn't want me not to drink it, would he?"

Tang Xiu frowned, clutching her icy hand, and said, "How I feel about you, you should know in your heart. Could it be that your heart is colder than stone, incapable of feeling warmth?"

"The Crown Prince is very fond of The Classic of Internal Medicine."

"You know that, if it weren't for me, those people out there would have torn you to shreds by now."

"Su Wen turned his head, his lifeless eyes gazing over, “Has Prince Yi ever thought about, if you hadn't brought me here, perhaps I would have had a different life?”

"What kind of life do you still want? Stay by my side, won't that be nice? That's what so many women dream of."

Suwen smiled, she was also one of these many people in her past life.

A person who has lived a lifetime should at least be smart, shouldn't they? Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of the opportunities given by heaven?

She doesn't want to live a life like she did before, she doesn't want to be around people full of schemes and plots. She wants to experience something new.

"I'm not in the mood, Suwen. Leave me alone."

Su Wen nodded. "Alright, I'll go play the piano for Your Highness."

"Do you know what I want?"

Although we can't see Suwen, we can feel the endless warmth emanating from his hands.

She was a little nervous. “Your Highness, if you truly desire it, how could I possibly refuse?”

In her past life, she had countless intimate moments with him. However, due to her previous experiences, she felt extremely insecure every time and even dared not open her eyes to look at him.

He wasn't a man of great desire, but whenever he faced her, it was like a storm every time...

The pain of injury brought Suwen's memories to an abrupt halt.

Tang Xiu was furious. "I could have taken your heart without needing it, you belong to me, I could take you at any time. But Su Wen, suddenly I'm a little curious, what does your true heart look like?"

Haven't you seen it in your past life?

She offered it with sincerity, but he coldly threw it on the ground.

Su Wen asked, "I'm also curious, will I still have true feelings for Your Highness the Prince?"

Tang Xiu shook off her hand. "Okay, I have plenty of time."

There weren't many women in Tang Xiu's mansion. The only one who truly held a position was a concubine. His mind wasn't on women, but the burning desire within him led him to favor a woman he could simply look past.

The woman rejoiced, having received grace.

When Ji Sidefei found out, she was furious.

Well, there's nothing to be done about it. With her heavily pregnant belly, how could Tang Xiu possibly get close to her?

She originally wanted to laugh at Su Wen and make fun of her for not being able to keep people.

The maids blocked the way, but nobody dared to approach Consort Ji who was heavily pregnant.

Ji Fu stood before Su Wen, coldly saying, "You're truly useless. Your Highness would rather favor commoners than you."

Su Wen frowned, "Empress Consort, perhaps it's best if you return now."

"I'm not leaving. What are you going to do about it?"

The Classic of Internal Medicine frowned, "Could it be that the concubine has forgotten what you did to me? I only spared you because of the child in your belly. We haven't settled our accounts yet.

"You..." Ji Fu was startled by her appearance and took two steps back, but unfortunately there was a small stool behind her. She tripped over it.

The maids went to help her, but they couldn't hold her up, and she fell backward.
