However, they b.u.mped into Princess Jin on the way. Xue Sifu got off the carriage and went shopping around the Imperial Capital with Princess Jin. Jiang Yue and Xue Yan continued to return to the palace.

It was also because Sifu was not present that Xue Yan, who was sitting in the carriage, could speak to Jiang Yue in private. He lowered his voice and said to Jiang Yue, “In my previous life, Shao Zhongxi was injured when he tried to save Qi Yin. Therefore, when the war broke out in the South, it was difficult for him to go to the battlefield.”

In the end, he still died in battle in the South.

“At that time, Qi Yin probably couldn’t be saved.” Xue Yan continued, “Because in my previous life, I’ve never heard of Shao Zhongxi getting married. He never had a princess consort.”

“What danger did Qi Yin encounter?” Jiang Yue asked in a low voice. “Was it so dangerous that he couldn’t save her?”

Xue Yan shook his head and said, “I don’t know about this. I can’t be sure exactly which year it happened. However, I can be sure that it should have happened after the Shao Family dominated the South. If it had been based on the development in my previous life, the Shao family would have already dominated the South last year. It happened after that. It happened when I was young…”

Jiang Yue was deep in thought. “If they are also fated to their doom, doesn’t that mean that something will happen to Qi Yin in the near future? Then, he’ll have to risk his life to save her…”

After all, this was ancient times, and most people did not live long. Being thirty meant that you’ve lived a long and prosperous life.

Shao Zhongxi would turn thirty in a month.

Xue Yan nodded, “I plan to place more Cloud Guards around Shao Zhongxi and Qi Yin.”

Jiang Yue nodded in agreement. He should place some Cloud Guards just in case anything happened to them.

“Put the Cloud Guards by your side with them. I’ll be fine taking care of you.” Jiang Yue said.

“Sure.” Xue Yan had no objections.

Then, he gave the order.

He told the Cloud Guards to protect Shao Zhongxi and Qi Yin while informing Shao Zhongxi of his change.

Shao Zhongxi did not ask anything when he saw that a large number of Cloud Guards had come to protect him and Qi Yin. His nephew and Jiang Yue must have had their reasons for making such arrangements.

He just went back to his room.

At this moment, Qi Yin was in Shao Zhongxi’s room. However, this time, without Qiye and Jiuye watching her, she was free to go wherever she wanted to.

However, she had already regained her senses and was no longer dazed.

She had never expected that things would turn out like this. She was not someone who could get pregnant easily. Now that she was pregnant again, it could be seen that the heavens were still very good to her.

However, when she thought about how Shao Zhongxi had known everything, she began to feel nervous.

She finally understood why he was so angry.

After so many years, his anger grew by the day, and the number of times he asked her to get lost was also increasing.

So it was to provoke her so that she would take the initiative to tell him everything…

It was all her fault. She was so focused on hiding it that she didn’t notice that something was wrong with him.

She had promised him since she was young that no matter what grievances she suffered, she would tell him.

Before her first child was lost, she had done it all. No matter what happened, she would tell him everything. No matter how trivial it was, he did not find it annoying. As his work piled on, he could still be distracted and listen to her. At that time, he was a little cold. He had actually been a little cold since he was young, but she liked it very much and thought it was very sweet. Later on, when the child was gone, she lied and said that she had aborted it. She even refused to admit that she had sworn to him… Then, it was as if she could not go back. She never expected that G.o.d would do this to her now…
