Reborn, meet you again!

Chapter 258 A belated apology

When Pei Qingyan and his party were halfway along the Imperial Street, in addition to the onlookers on both sides, a large number of relatives of the officers and soldiers who had been poisoned by Ning Yuanhou suddenly appeared.

They held rotten eggs, rotten vegetable leaves, and stones in their hands, and threw them at the Pei family without mercy, while crying out for justice for their sons, husbands, and fathers.

Pei Yujiao and her mother's originally intermittent cries suddenly turned into screams, but the escorting black-armored guards had no intention of stopping them.

However, facing such a scene, Pei Qingyan remained unusually silent, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him.

He just walked forward numbly without dodging or evading.

Until a figure appeared in his sight.

Pei Qingyan suddenly stopped and stared at Song Wan who was standing in the crowd.

She was seen wearing a red long dress, with picturesque eyebrows and eyes, and a calm expression. Beside her were Jiang Zheng and Liu, who looked indignant.

Pei Qingyan's heart suddenly tightened.

He suddenly recalled the time in Jiangnan. Back then, she was also like this, liking bright colors and being incredibly charming...

Then, they got married. In the first month after their marriage, she always stood beside him gently, looking at him with a smile and straightening his clothes.

Even though he found all kinds of lame excuses and refused to touch her, she seemed to be unaware of it. He was the only one in her eyes and she loved him wholeheartedly.

But now, her gaze fell on him, without a trace of emotion in her eyes, as if she was looking at a stranger.

He admits.

He regretted it.

Originally, he could have had a bright future and a wife who loved him wholeheartedly, and lived a happy life.

He was too greedy...

It was because of his status as the legitimate son of a marquis that he was prejudiced against her background and ignored her true feelings.

Messed it all up...

Pei Qingyan thought about it and opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but his throat seemed to be blocked by something.

The black-armored guard at the side saw Pei Qingyan stop and stare at his prince's future princess, and immediately stepped forward and kicked him.

"What are you looking at! Is this the person you're supposed to be looking at?"

"Don't leave yet!"

Sui Fengke said that this future princess was the apple of the prince's eye, so they naturally had to be extremely careful.

Moreover, although they got jobs after arriving in Beijing, their family background was still limited. If they wanted to settle down and buy a house in Beijing, they would probably have to wait another ten or eight years.

But the princess was powerful. After a disagreement, she had 40,000 taels of gold carried to the Five Elements Bureau, so that all the brothers of the Black Armor Guards could work for decades less... Based on this affection, they had to swear allegiance to the princess until death, just as they were loyal to the prince.

but……

Wasn't the prince going to propose marriage today? Many black-armored guards had volunteered to carry the betrothal gifts to the door early this morning. Why was the princess still outside?

Pei Qingyan didn't know what the black-armored guards were thinking, but he understood why they were acting like that today.

Jiahe said...

She is now... the future regent princess. These black-armored guards are the regent's confidants, so naturally they have to protect her.

But during these days in prison, he figured out a lot of things.

What Shen Jiahe said is actually true.

It was their Marquisate that was ungrateful and owed her.

Thinking of this, Pei Qingyan tried his best to steady his body which staggered after being kicked, bowed in the direction of Song Wan, and said three words.

"sorry."

The three words were spoken very softly, and he didn't know whether she heard them or not. He quickly retracted his gaze, returned to his previous numbness, and continued walking forward.

However, Song Wan's face did not show any fluctuation in response to Pei Qingyan's action.

She had no feelings for Pei Qingyan in the first place, and what's more, her belated affection was cheaper than grass!

If he had not been deceived by Shen Jiahe and ended up with nothing now, how could he have thought of Jiang Wanqiao's good intentions?

Thinking of this, Song Wan pulled Jiang Zheng and Liu, who had brought her to see Pei Qingyan's end, and turned away without hesitation.

only……

Pei Qingyan's actions also caught the attention of Jiang Wanqiao who was sitting in the teahouse.

But her heart wasn't as calm as Song Wan's...

After all, she had truly loved Pei Qingyan. Although she felt the Pei family deserved this fate, this belated apology finally gave her an explanation for her life, which ended in a messy way by hanging herself...

And now, she is facing the same choice...

Jiang Wanqiao thought about it, reached out and touched her belly which was already a little pregnant, restrained the emotions in her eyes, and looked at the two maids following behind her.

"I'm a little tired, let's go back home."

Upon hearing this, a maid named Nishang rushed over before Xing'er and carefully helped Jiang Wanqiao up.

"Yes, Princess, be careful."

Ever since Jiang Wanqiao became pregnant, the servants of Prince Huai's Mansion, while happy for their master, have also become more cautious.

After all, the Crown Prince had said that if the Crown Princess could give birth safely, everyone would be rewarded handsomely. But if something happened to the Crown Princess in Prince Huai's Mansion under their noses, or if someone was so foolish as to offend the Crown Princess, none of them would be able to escape.

Therefore, the servants of Prince Huai's Mansion, especially those who were taken care of by Jiang Wanqiao in the courtyard, were all on high alert.

This maid named Nishang was specially assigned by Yun Zheng the day after Jiang Wanqiao woke up from her heart attack.

After all, Xing'er came from the market. He had seen this maidservant and Wan'er share a bond in hardship, and thought that since she had lost her memory, it was natural for her to want someone familiar to serve her, so he granted her wish.

But ever since she got into trouble when she went out alone with Jiang Wanqiao, he couldn't rest easy anymore, fearing that she would be clumsy and cause Wan'er to get into trouble again.

So after careful selection, they chose a maid who used to serve Princess Huai...

Jiang Wanqiao only responded in a low voice when she saw the maidservant bowing her head and respectfully supporting her.

"Ah."

Today is the first time she has left the house in two months.

Because the baby in her belly was already three months old, the prince allowed her to go out for a walk.

But ever since this maidservant followed her around all the time, it became increasingly inconvenient for her to do anything she wanted to do...
