When Mu Mingtang helped Xie Xuanchen, her gaze was focused, as if she had no time to pay attention to the others. Xie Xuanji had known Xie Xuanchen for many years and had seen many instances where he had gone manic and out of control, but it was the first time he saw Xie Xuanchen restrain himself like this. He didn't hurt anyone, but he hurt himself, and voluntarily took the pill that had major repercussions to it, just to reassure that one person.
Xie Xuanji couldn't express how he was feeling now. He always felt that Xie Xuanchen was at the end of his life and became a humanoid weapon that he himself couldn't even control. He also always felt that Mu Mingtang was both vulgar and brainless, even if she tried to imitate Jiang Mingwei, she could only learn the superficial parts of her.
Their marriage was just a farce from beginning to the end. No one took their marriage seriously. The Emperor, the Jiang family, and the court officials were all waiting for Xie Xuanchen to breathe his last breath. This was probably Mu Mingtang's final value to them.
Unexpectedly, these two people showed them the bravery behind charging forward courageously despite the hindrance of others. Just now, Xie Xuanchen and Mu Mingtang were undoubtedly in a total mess, they were covered in blood, and the scene was chaotic, but all the soldiers just looked at them, and no one dared to step forward.
Xie Xuanji sighed. If such a story was placed in excerpts of a show, it would probably be a well-received and touching show. But one of them was his elder brother and the other was his former fiancee. It was hard to describe Xie Xuanji’s feelings about this.
Her husband's brother was in trouble, Jiang Mingwei, as a good sister-in-law, of course had to stay present all the way. Later, Mu Mingtang also fainted. Jiang Mingwei could only continue to act as a conscientious sister-in-law, and escorted Mu Mingtang into the room with a "worried look", and then she walked out with a "worried look" after the imperial physician concluded that she was all right. Jiang Mingwei was still looking sad. As soon as she raised the curtains and walked out, she saw Xie Xuanji staring deeply at the figure behind the screen, not knowing what he was thinking of.
Jiang Mingwei suddenly felt a sense of danger. Women's intuitions are always abrupt and groundless. Jiang Mingwei couldn't help but squint. She turned around quietly and saw Mu Mingtang lying on the bed. Even if the people around her were walking around, they were all surrounding Mu Mingtang. Although it was difficult to see this from outside the screen, it was not difficult to infer where Mu Mingtang was based on everyone’s movements.
Jiang Mingwei unexpectedly thought of the fact that in her previous life, Mu Mingtang was Xie Xuanji's wife, who accompanied him by his side and became the queen. Everyone said that Mu Mingtang was favored because she imitated her sister, and Xie Xuanji crowned Mu Mingtang because Mu Mingtang resembled Jiang Mingwei. However, Jiang Mingwei had been missing for so many years, does Xie Xuanji really remember how his childhood playmate looked like?
Jiang Mingwei didn't dare to think further. She coughed, Xie Xuanji looked intently in her direction. Jiang Mingwei put on a smiling face and greeted him as she said, "The second sister-in-law is already asleep. The imperial physician said that she’s fine, it’s just that she got too emotional, that’s why she fainted. She’ll get better after some sleep."
It was just because of her huge mood swings, Xie Xuanji felt a sigh of relief for some reason. Jiang Mingwei continued on softly, as if she didn’t notice what she had just said: "Sister-in-law seems healthy, but she passed out this time. She must have been terrified. There was blood all over the hall just now. She had to walk to the second elder brother, and she still had that outfit on for so long after. It seems that she really cares for him."
Xie Xuanji looked down and glanced at Jiang Mingwei, he inexplicably felt that these words were unpleasant sounding: "Everyone is very concerned about the second brother's illness. Otherwise, there won't be so many people waiting here."
Jiang Mingwei originally just wanted to secretly mock Mu Mingtang’s character, fainting out of the blue, who knew if Mu Mingtang was faking it or not. However, Jiang Mingwei did not expect Xie Xuanji's tone to suddenly sound so aggressive.
