Xie Jing Xing glanced at her before looking back at the bright amber wine in his bowl, “To need alcohol to boost up one’s courage to speak to me, is it that you have committed some errs behind my back?”
“Previously did you not ask me what my secret is?” Shen Miao said, “There is no need to exchange it with your secrets. I will tell you.”
As the sun headed west, Shen Miao and Xie Jing Xing were walking back to the residence.
Great Liang was more open minded and had more freedom than in Ming Qi thus it was a common sight for husband and wife to be seen in the streets. However because Xie Jing Xing was very famous, everyone in Long Ye knew of him and thus they would be surrounding by astonished eyes wherever he went.
Gao Yang walked in and took a look at Shen Miao, “One heard that you woke up and came over to take a long. Originally that wound is a superficial wound and it did not affect any internal functions. It is alright.” He then said to Xie Jing Xing, “It is also good for you to have some activity with your body as you have been guarding in the room and did not even gone out to the sun. The weather is good today. It is alright as long one does not return late.”
Afterwards, he picked his medical box in the room and left.
Shen Miao had dreamt of a very long dream.
That dream seemed to be very very long and it lasted a lifetime. She had a bystander perspective as she watch herself grew from a baby bumbling over words to a lively young girl, from a lively young girl to a young female, then to a middle aged married woman, then to the Mistress of the Six Palaces and finally to an abolished Empress in the Cold Palace before during into a pile of ashes in that fierce fire.
The abbot was an old monk and he shook his head while looking at him, “An illness of a heart would need a medicine for a heart.”
Was there a medication for regret in the world?
Time was like an arrow, sunrises and sunsets were as usual.
Flowers had bloom a few rounds, flowers had wilted a few rounds, the moon changed from crescent to a full moon, so what more humans?
The music threw one’s mind into disorder. This Palace banquet was extraordinarily lively.
Fu Xiu Yi had never been this happy and his normally cold look became much softer with his smile becoming exceptionally happier. Shen Miao looked coldly as Fu Chen came over to toast him. Both Father and Son looked happy but her heart was somewhat chilled.
The yellow sands were thick and the wind was blowing strongly. There were many wind and frost during the journey and the sun, moon and stars were just mere embellishments.
There were only a few scattered guards that were escorting and they were not respectful to the person in the carriage.
