We agreed, later I’ll circle a big grassland for you. You’ll cook fish and shrimp for me, and make clothes from roe deer skin. But your cooking skills don’t seem very good! Xi Linxuan said.
What’s difficult? I’ll learn from the kitchen lady in a day. Wei Lin replied confidently.
Look! Xi Linxuan suddenly pointed at the sky.
What? There were only red clouds and the sun, no birds.
Impressive. Xi Linxuan replied seriously.
Where?
You just blew it up! Xi Linxuan poked her forehead.
Wei Lin laughed, sizing up Xi Linxuan doubtfully: No, you’re clearly sitting right here. Then she stood up and ran, determined.
By the time they returned, it was dark. Feng and a group of guards with bright torches were searching for them, relaxing only upon their return. At the mansion, Tuoba Jingshen unexpectedly arrived with bad news.
This matter, I can only say this much. Imperial Father should withdraw the decree. Tuoba Jingshen said in the candlelight.
Wei Lin sat beside Xi Linxuan, her head slightly lowered.
Xie Si Dian informed that this matter requires careful consideration, Xi Linxuan said.
Tuoba Jingshen left, and the couple sat silently, with Feng Shou standing beside them. Finally, Xi Linxuan broke the silence and instructed Feng Shou: “Serve the meal, I am hungry.”
Feng Shou left, and he walked up to Weilin, taking her hand: “Wei Chen, are you afraid of death?”
Weilin hugged his waist, whispering: “I’m afraid of dying. After death, I won’t be able to eat, drink, or ride a horse. We have a life-saving talisman; we should use it. One day, we’ll find a way out, right?”
“Wei Chen!” Xi Linxuan crouched down to meet her gaze, “The husband you married has already made you suffer. If I continue like this, do you plan to let me be at peace for the rest of my life?”
His gaze was focused and deep, but his expression was full of guilt, making Weilin want to endure. She avoided eye contact, afraid she might cry, and hugged him tightly: “Yes, I want to make you owe me during our difficult times. Later, when you’re successful, you’ll continue to be good to me because of your debt. So, I don’t mind you owing me now.”
