The Regent and His Wife Couldn't Possibly be so Loving.

The backyard of Pingning Marquis Mansion.

Jiang Ling stared at the box of spices Ming Yi sent over in a daze: "What are these?"

Mingyi told her mysteriously: "These are extremely precious spices. They can add a lot of joy to the boudoir and enhance the relationship between husband and wife."

Jiang Ling frowned. She had been married once, so she naturally understood that matter. However, to her, it was not very interesting.

"Thank you, Your Highness. Is this the incense for pain relief? It's nothing serious." Jiang Ling held her chin and recalled her ex-husband. "It's dark anyway. I'll just endure it for a while and it will pass."

Mingyi: “…” Something seems to be wrong.

"No, it's not like that!" Mingyi tried to correct Jiang Ling's "mistake".

Jiang Ling asked blankly: "What is that?"

Ming Yi blushed and coughed: "This... that... it's a long story."

Jiang Ling ran to the cupboard and brought out a jar of her daughter's red wine that she had secretly hidden. She said to Ming Yi, "Since it's a long story, let's drink while we talk."

After the court session, Xie Shu returned to Ximotang in Yiyuan to read the memorials.

As he was quietly looking at the memorial, the guard he had placed beside Mingyi came down from the eaves and entered Ximo Hall.

Seeing that it was him, Xie Shu immediately put down the memorial and frowned, "But is there something wrong, Your Highness?"

The guard reported: "Your Highness was drinking with Miss Jiang at the Pingning Marquis's residence and accidentally got drunk."

Xie Shu smiled, shook his head and sighed: "Okay, I'll go pick her up myself."

Mingyi corrected Jiang Ling's misunderstanding while sipping her daughter's red wine.

The taste of daughter's red wine is light but the liquor is strong. Mingyi sipped it and leaned on the small couch beside the round table in a daze.

After an unknown amount of time, she seemed to hear Xie Shu calling her.

"lady."

Mingyi opened her hazy eyes and saw Xie Shu's face close to her. She called out sweetly, "My husband."

"...Yes." Xie Shu said stiffly, "My husband...I am here."

Mingyi's face was flushed with drunkenness. She put her hands on Xie Shu's back and kissed him on the lips.

Xie Shu's eyes darkened slightly, his throat moved up and down, and he tried to suppress some uncontrollable emotions in his heart. Reason reminded him that this was in someone else's home, and he couldn't do that.

"I'll take you back." he whispered.

The drunk Ming Yi nodded obediently, ran into his arms skillfully and rubbed against him, then stretched out her arms to hold him tightly: "Hold me, take me away quickly."

Xie Shu: “Okay…”

If she continues like this, he can't hold on any longer.

Xie Shuheng picked up Mingyi, strode out of Pingning Marquis Mansion, and carried her to his carriage.

Cheng Feng asked Xie Shu: "Do you want to send His Highness back to Da Ci'en Temple?"

Xie Shu glanced at the intoxicating beauty in his arms, paused, and said, "No."

"Not going back to Da Ci'en Temple, but back to Yiyuan."

Chengfeng replied yes and rode towards Yiyuan.
