After thinking about it, Xijun turned all the worries in his heart into a word of pity: "Master, you have suffered."

Looking at Xijun's loving eyes, she knew that these words of greeting came from the bottom of her heart. She had not felt this for a long time.

My heart tightened and I almost shed tears. I held back the tears that were about to burst out. I blinked my eyes frequently and replied: "Take good care of Chu Yi for me, and wait for my return with peace of mind."

Xijun nodded solemnly: "I dare not forget the master's instructions. It was my fault that I neglected my duty. Last time, I lost the young lady for several days. Fortunately, the young lady was safe. Otherwise, I might have to sacrifice my life to apologize."

Jiang Zuiyao hurriedly said: "I know you are loyal, so I feel free to hand Chu Yi over to you. I have too many burdens on my shoulders, and I can't stay or take Chu Yi away right now. I have to do everything for you.

I owe you too."

The weight of these words was too heavy for Xijun, so she quickly knelt down in front of Jiang Zuiyao and said solemnly: "Master's words are a shame for this slave. If master had not raised his hand to save me, I would still be here at the inn."

If you live a life of being ignored and shunned by others, you may die. Once you call yourself master, you will be loyal to him for life. A servant is willing to work for his master and go through fire and water. Master, please don't say that."

Jiang Zuiyao hurriedly bent over to help Xijun up and said: "You are not a master or a servant. Although you serve me, I have never regarded you as a servant."

Although Xiyun understood that although Jiang Zuiyao didn't say anything, she must be feeling bitter in her heart. She couldn't help but sigh and said: "Hey, I used to think it was not easy for the master, but fortunately, I can stay with you every day, and you can also stay with me."

Miss, but now that the master is out and away from the mansion, the servant cannot be by your side to serve you."

After a pause, Xiyun continued: "I know that following you will drag you down, but you must take care of yourself."

Jiang Zuiyao nodded: "You don't have to worry about me, just take good care of Chu Yi."

At this moment, Linghui came in holding the quilt, placed it on the bed, and said: "Young lady, please stay with the young lady tonight, and I will make the bed for you."

Jiang Zuiyao got up, and Linghui began to work.

Xijun helped Jiang Zuiyao walk to the couch and sit down. There were some words that she, a servant, should not say, but she still couldn't help but said: "Although I live in the east courtyard and don't care about foreign affairs, some things still come in."

This slave has caught my ears, and I usually dare not mention those things to anyone. Now that the master is back, I will ask the eldest young master, has he really committed treason?"

This kind of question is certainly a heavy one, and Xijun guessed that Jiang Zuiyao must be with Shao Ziqing outside.

Jiang Zuiyao didn't say anything in depth, but replied perfunctorily: "This kind of thing cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences."

Xiyun tightened her lips: "But Master, you are the eldest young master's wife. If the eldest young master really commits treason, then you..."

In the final analysis, Xijun still asked because he was worried about Jiang Zuiyao.

Jiang Zuiyao stood up and came to the cradle. Looking at Chu Yi in the cradle, her expression was too complicated to describe.

It was late at night, Linghui made the bed and followed Xijun out.

Jiang Zuiyao was lying on the bed, rocking the cradle beside the bed. This kind of ordinary night was really luxurious.

After the bumpy journey and the hard work of the day, Jiang Zuiyao was already very tired, but she was so worried that she couldn't sleep at all.

She didn't know what Shao Ziqing was doing at this time, she didn't know if Shao Wanyun was safe, let alone whether Shaojiang could collect 500,000 taels.

The hand holding the cradle tightened. In the dark night, she felt helpless, but not afraid.

Looking at Chu Yi sleeping soundly in the cradle, this was the reason why she must come back safely.

This child, living in this huge Shaofu, seems to be rich and has no worries about food and clothing, but he is also a child who is not taken seriously. Now that Chu Yi is still young, he can't tell much. If he grows up in the future,

If she can't be by his side, I'm afraid life in the Shao family will be difficult.

Therefore, for her, being in this situation that seemed to have nothing to do with her, she had to participate in it.

What the Taixuan clan wants to do and what the court wants to do are not important to her. What she wants is to come back, and only to come back.

Melancholy plagued her heart for a long time, until her eyes finally couldn't hold it anymore due to sleepiness, and Jiang Zuiyao fell into a deep sleep.

It was a hazy sleep, and Jiang Zuiyao had a lot of dreams, one dream after another, and she was very tired when she woke up.

After getting up, Jiang Zuiyao stayed beside Chu Yi.

She knew that when she left, it was another farewell that she would not see Chu Yi for for who knows how long.

Even though the current situation was urgent, she still didn't care. She wanted to be willful for once and accompany Chu Yi properly.

From morning to night, Jiang Zuiyao stayed by Chu Yi's side, Xiyun and Linghui didn't bother her, only Zhan Feng stayed in the room and watched.

As evening approached, Zhan Feng, who had not spoken all day, spoke up: "Do you hate me for threatening you with your child?"

Jiang Zuiyao didn't expect the sudden question. He slowly put down the rattle that Chu Yi was playing with in his hand and said, "What? Do you feel guilty?"

Zhan Feng could see how much Jiang Zuiyao cared about his children. Looking back on it, he felt a little cruel.

Later, Jiang Zuiyao said again: "If Xijun knew that it was you who took Chu Yi away at that time, I'm afraid he would hate you very much."

Zhan Feng sat on a chair far away and said: "The two of them are loyal slaves."

Jiang Zuiyao replied seriously: "They are not slaves, they are just like us."

Zhan Feng looked at Jiang Zuiyao. All he had ever seen were women who were always strong and refused to bow their heads. A woman who was in the hands of the Taixuan clan. Right now, staying in the Shao family, he was listening to the shouts of others regarding their superiority and inferiority.

Looking at her young lady, he realized that she was also a young lady from a noble family.

Although it was only one day, seeing the way Xijun and Linghui waited on her, and the way she accompanied Chu Yi regardless of all the troubles, I really realized that this was the life she should have lived.

She was supposed to live in this deep house and compound, be her rich young lady, surrounded by a bunch of people to serve her, and wake up every day to work on her family and children. This was her life.

Thinking about Jiang Zuiyao's days, she really suffered, and it was not something she should have endured.

Zhan Feng asked calmly: "You must hate the leader, right?"

Jiang Zuiyao smiled briskly: "He? For me, I just think he is pitiful."

Such an answer surprised Zhan Feng.

Immediately, Zhan Feng thought for a moment and said, "When this matter is over, I will send you back."

Jiang Zuiyao, who had been just replying and looking down at Chu Yi, finally looked up at Zhan Feng after hearing these words.
