Chu Lian didn't expect him to be so daring and glared at him in warning.

However, He Changdi didn't know how to restrain himself. His hand continued to rub that soft and perky spot.

He leaned against Chu Lian and buried his head in the side of her neck, smelling the faint fragrance on her body. His thin lips touched her red earlobe and he demanded in a domineering manner, "Lian 'er, tomorrow you will sit in the same carriage with me."

Chu Lian felt that ever since her crazy husband, He Sanlang, was injured, he seemed to have suddenly become a possessive child.

Now, she understood why he was like that.

Chu Lian was helpless. "Then what about Sister Hui?"

Sima Hui was a girl after all. She couldn't squeeze into the same room as them. Plus, she had a good relationship with Sima Hui. Sima Hui had always taken care of her when they were in the border army.

If she left Sima Hui aside to accompany He Sanlang, what would happen?

"Just let her sit in the carriage by herself."

He Sanlang, who had been ignored by his wife for a whole day, began to accept his reasoning.

Chu Lian sweated. Why didn't she realize that this person was so stubborn and possessive? He was even jealous of women.

It was because she understood He Changdi that Chu Lian knew that if she didn't give him a definite answer, he wouldn't be finished tonight.

Chu Lian squeezed her hands in front of their chests and pushed them away, leaving some space between her and He Changdi.

He Sanlang looked down at her, his face full of displeasure.

Chu Lian stared at his handsome face and suddenly smiled.

Her clear eyes curved into crescent moons, like a blooming epiphyllum with a hidden fragrance, dazzling He Sanlang's deep eyes.

Chu Lian suddenly reached out and hooked her arms around He Changdi's neck, pulling him down.

He Sanlang obediently bent down slightly and stretched his face in front of her. Their eyes met, and Chu Lian could even see the fine hairs on his face clearly.

The smile on Chu Lian's face widened even more. She whispered something into He Changdi's ear.

As soon as Chu Lian finished speaking, He Changdi's cold and handsome face seemed to light up. His eyes suddenly became frighteningly deep, as if he could melt a person's heart into his gaze.

He confirmed in a low voice, "Really?"

Chu Lian refused to say it a second time. She just hugged his neck and smiled at him.

He Changdi's large palm on her waist exerted force and supported her buttocks. Just like that, Chu Lian was held in his arms like he was holding a child. She was so frightened that she immediately tightened her grip on his neck.

This time, He Sanlang got lucky. The softness of her chest pressed against his handsome face.

After Chu Lian found out, her face was so red that she couldn't see anyone.

After all, He Sanlang's leg hadn't fully recovered. Although he was too excited now, he didn't dare to mess around. He lifted Chu Lian up and put her down.

He personally tidied up Chu Lian's somewhat messy dress, lowered his head, and warned in a low voice, "Don't lie to me!

Otherwise, you should know the consequences! "

The blush on Chu Lian's face had not completely faded. Hearing this, she could only nod perfunctorily.

During dinner, Lai Yue noticed that his young master's mood was much better than usual. He only dared to sneak a few glances from time to time, trying to guess what kind of great thing had happened to the Third Young Master.

Chu Lian, who was sitting next to her husband, could obviously feel the change. He Sanlang, who usually didn't smile, could actually smile from time to time. She held the porcelain bowl and secretly rolled her eyes.

She had only promised him that they would consummate their marriage when they returned to the capital. Look at how happy he was.

When they set off from Suzhou the next day, Chu Lian and Sima Hui were still in the same carriage, while He Changdi rode alone.

Lai Yue was secretly surprised. This time, the Third Young Master was in a good mood from the moment he got on the carriage. At noon, he didn't even urge him to go to Third Young Madam's place to disturb her.

When Chu Lian went to Liangzhou in the north, she had to take remote roads because she was in a hurry. However, it was different now. She wasn't in a hurry, so she practically strolled all the way back to Shengjing. Moreover, Sima Hui was a playful person, so the two of them strolled and bought quite a few local specialties.

Sima Hui was rich to begin with, and ever since Chu Lian opened Guilin House, she didn't have to worry about money. On this trip, the two of them spent at least two to three thousand taels.

Lai Yue, who was watching from the side, couldn't help but widen his eyes.

tainer: s,

});

})();

When he and the Third Young Master went to the north, the total amount of money they had on them was only this much. With Third Young Madam spending so much money, he was really worried that the Third Young Master wouldn't be able to afford it.

He Changdi, on the other hand, acted as if nothing had happened. He even told Lai Yue to follow behind Chu Lian and note down what new things Third Young Madam liked, so that he could report them to him later.

It wasn't until they reached the Chong Prefecture that Great General Qian and the rest of the generals from the northern border army caught up with them and met up with them.

After that, the speed of their return to Shengjing became much faster.

However, no matter how fast they traveled, it still took them about twenty days to get back.

By the time they reached Chaozhou, He Sanlang could already ride a horse normally.

Coincidentally, Prince Jin and He Erlang had settled the Chaozhou case, so the group discussed and prepared to return to the capital together.

Although Chu Lian and the others hadn't reached the capital yet, the letter had already been sent back.

Now, whether it was Matriarch He, Royal Princess Duanjia, or Countess Jing 'an, they were all hoping that the young couple could quickly return home.

He Changdi and the Fourth Prince, Prince Jin, sat in the carriage.

The two of them hadn't seen each other for a long time, but they didn't feel like strangers at all.

Prince Jin looked much more haggard than he had been before the New Year. There was a hint of gloominess in his green eyes, and he seemed to have lost a lot of weight.

He Changdi glanced at his good friend and personally filled up the cup in front of him.

On the charcoal brazier next to him was the milk wine, a specialty of the northern territory. It had a low alcohol content and was good for nourishing the body. It wasn't intoxicating, so it was the perfect time to drink it.

"Your Highness, did you find anything from the Chaozhou case?"

The originally gentle Prince Jin was silent for a long time before he raised his head and raised the cup on the small table in front of him. He drank the wine in the cup in one gulp as if he was venting. He then raised the wine pot and drank three cups in a row. Only then did he manage to calm down his fluctuating emotions.

"Ah Di, I found something."

He Sanlang looked at his good friend with eyes as vast as the night sky. The expression on his grave and stern face didn't change at all, as if he had already expected this outcome.

Prince Jin frowned and held the cup in his hand. "Ah Di, you knew this would happen, didn't you?"

He Sanlang also drank the milk wine in his cup in one gulp. His silence was a response.

"It was because you sensed it that you hinted to me to investigate this case before we left for Liangzhou."

He Sanlang felt bitter in his heart. He hadn't sensed it at all. He had clearly experienced it himself!

He didn't want his good friend to experience that kind of pain again in this life. Since he had been reborn, he had to let his good friend see the true colors of that mother and son!

"Even though I'm Your Highness's close friend, there are some things that you wouldn't believe if I told you directly," He Sanlang finally said.

The light in Prince Jin's green eyes dimmed. He was lost in thought for a while before he suddenly chuckled. "That's right. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes and investigated it myself, I wouldn't have believed you even if you said it in front of me."

But now that the ugly truth was right in front of him, he had no choice but to believe it!

What a joke!

It turned out that the person you cared about the most had always treated you as a pawn that could be sacrificed at any time.

He was just a shield in front of the Crown Prince.

In his previous life, Prince Jin had been framed and killed because he had believed the person he trusted the most.

Although He Sanlang had warned him at the time, Prince Jin hadn't taken his words seriously at all.

Later, when the truth came out, Prince Jin was wrongly accused.

At that time, He Sanlang had wanted to save his good friend, but he couldn't because the entire Duke Jing 'an estate was in imminent danger.

Inside the carriage, the two of them fell silent.

After a long time, they heard Prince Jin's voice. "Ah Di, I feel terrible. Drink a few more cups with me."

He Sanlang didn't say anything, but he personally poured some wine for Prince Jin.

Prince Jin slept in the carriage for a while before he recovered some energy. He tidied his hair, jumped out of the carriage, and switched horses with He Changdi.

Under the warm sun, He Sanlang, who was dressed in black, and Prince Jin, who was dressed in dark blue, rode side by side. They were like the most attractive scenery.

One was elegant, while the other was cold.

Prince Jin's smile was like a spring breeze, while He Sanlang's handsome face was fierce and cold.

They were in the suburbs, so the official road was spacious. Today, the sun was warm, and Chu Lian, who had been cooped up in the carriage all day, couldn't stand it anymore. She asked Sima Hui to teach her how to ride a horse.

Sima Hui specially asked her female adjutant to pick a docile brown mare for Chu Lian. She gave it a comfortable saddle and taught Chu Lian the essentials of riding a horse.

Chu Lian was smart and bold. In less than half an hour, she was able to control the reins and trot on the official road.

At that moment, they heard the sound of horse hooves quickening behind them. Both of them looked back in confusion.

Unexpectedly, Prince Jin and He Changdi were rushing in their direction.

Although it wasn't Sima Hui's first time in the capital, she had never seen the Fourth Prince before.

The man riding a horse in the distance had a strange color in his eyes. Nothing could be seen in his eyes, but Sima Hui felt like she could see her own reflection in them.

Chu Lian was afraid that Sima Hui would be rude in front of Prince Jin, so she hurriedly mouthed, "Fourth Prince."

When Sima Hui heard Chu Lian's reminder, she suddenly realized something and vaguely remembered.

She had heard that the Fourth Prince was different from other people, but she didn't expect it to be because of his eyes.

In the royal family, pupils of different colors were not an auspicious sign, and the Fourth Prince's birth mother, Concubine Xian, had passed away when he was young. It could be imagined that this prince's life in the palace in the past was not very good.

Sima Hui had also lost her parents when she was young, so she could empathize with the Fourth Prince and Prince Jin's experiences. She couldn't help but look at him with a hint of tolerance and gentleness.

Besides, apart from Prince Jin's different eyes, his appearance was almost on par with He Changdi's. He was also a rare handsome man.

He Sanlang and Prince Jin arrived in front of them. Chu Lian smiled and said, "Your Highness, Prince Jin."

"Jinyi, I didn't think that you'd put on some weight after not seeing you for a few months."

(It's been a hundred years since I last saw you. I only have one chapter today!

Thank you for feeding Ah Lan!)
