Qingyan had awakened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone looked toward the house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed Qingyan had heard the monarch’s words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at Bai Ruozhu with some difficulty, not daring to meet her eyes, and struggled to get up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He bowed to the monarch and said, “Your Majesty, it has been many years since we last met.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jun Haoran snorted coldly and said, “Didn’t you go off to join the barbarian princess Sangshu?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that you’re back, don’t tell me you have some unseemly motives?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qingyan forced a bitter smile and said, “I guess I’m really a failure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ve probably been cooped up in the mountains for too long.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as I come out, I’m plagued with misfortune, and even an old friend doubts me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying this, he looked at Bai Ruozhu and said apologetically, “I admit I wasn’t completely honest with you before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I hid the fact that my wife was the barbarian princess, saying only that I had fallen in love with a barbarian girl.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He coughed painfully twice from his unhealed internal injuries and continued, “But I did not join the barbarians.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My family couldn’t accept Sangshu, and her family couldn’t accept me, so we went to live in seclusion in a mountain village from the start.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If I had really joined the barbarians over these years, wouldn’t there have been some news?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Your Majesty doesn’t believe me, you are free to send someone to investigate among the barbarians.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jun Haoran was skeptical, “Then why have you come back now?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qingyan’s face showed a look of misery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sangshu is dead, and I am old.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before she died, she told me she knew I felt guilty inside and asked me to return to my family to seek forgiveness, so I could return to my roots.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sadly, she never received my family’s forgiveness before she died.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The royal family of the barbarians would never acknowledge a foreigner who couldn’t control beasts.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Qingyan’s expression, Bai Ruozhu felt she could understand and forgive him once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A scion of a distinguished family from the Western Regions, the future head of his clan, had fallen in love with a princess from an enemy nation, much like Romeo and Juliet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, they were lucky enough to break free from their constraints and escape, spending decades together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, even so, when Qingyan spoke of it, his emotions were filled with sorrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They lived their lives without having children, each harboring guilt and longing for their families.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though they had love, they lost their kin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing of Sangshu’s death, the monarch asked urgently, “How did she die?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wasn’t older than you or I; she shouldn’t have passed away so soon.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The question revealed that the monarch, Sangshu, and Qingyan were once very close.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I don’t know why, but after we lost our child, her health steadily declined, perhaps consumed by sorrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterwards, we never had another child.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three years ago, she suddenly fell sick and then faded away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I kept vigil by her side for three years, and only a few days ago I planned to return to Gaochang to ease my mind,” Qingyan explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The monarch widened his eyes slightly and exclaimed, “Your child?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sangshu was already pregnant when you both eloped—it must have been the Holy Hall’s curse, it must have!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qingyan sat up straight, “What curse from the Holy Hall?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Back then I wasn’t yet the sovereign, and I would sometimes go out drinking with Tang Gui.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had fallen for the Holy Maiden Fen Wan, and I would accompany him to the Holy Hall to meet her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was during one such visit that I accidentally overheard a conversation between the great elder and Fen Wan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fen Wan was questioning the great elder on how he could be so malicious, arguing that even if someone was from a foreign clan, the divinities would still protect them if they were kind-hearted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The great elder called her foolish, saying that she was a princess of the foreign clan and the most talented beastmaster, and she must never be allowed to return to the barbarians.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After they argued, he even slapped Fen Wan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I believe the elder was referring to Sangshu,” the monarch said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qingyan stood there stupefied, unable to speak for a long while, as if he had aged a year in that instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sovereign looked at him with pity, sighed, and said, “You should take care of your injuries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m leaving first.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the sovereign’s retreating figure, Bai Ruozhu wondered why he suddenly stopped chasing people away and was so quick to believe Qingyan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, they were once friends; he had always believed in Qingyan in his heart, only harboring some anger towards him, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Neither she nor Jiang Yichun disturbed Qingyan, figuring that right now he probably just wanted to be alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When it was time for dinner, Bai Ruozhu told Muyu to take food to Qingyan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon Muyu reported that Qingyan wanted to speak with Bai Ruozhu and made it clear that she should go alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yichun was somewhat worried, but Bai Ruozhu patted his arm and said with a smile, “Don’t worry, he’s been injured like that, and my martial arts training wasn’t for nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ll be fine.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then I’ll stay in the yard in case you need to call me,” Jiang Yichun said as he caressed her cheek.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Still, you must be very cautious; it’s important to guard against others.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay,” she said with a smile back at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon entering the room, Bai Ruozhu felt even more convinced that Qingyan was no longer a threat to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qingyan’s condition had worsened rapidly; he was not just physically hurt, but also evidently suffering from emotional distress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Girl, you saved me twice, yet I kept hiding things from you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I am sorry,” Qingyan began.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His apology was the very reason he called her over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s alright, at least we’ve cleared things up now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I heard that today you were brought here by Sangta’s black panther.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What exactly is going on?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is Sangta concerned about you because he’s your uncle?” Bai Ruozhu inquired.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qingyan showed an expression of helplessness, “How did you come to think that Xiaohei is Sangta’s panther?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You probably don’t know that the barbarian clan’s beasts only let their chosen masters ride them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Have you ever seen Sangta ride Xiaohei?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu was taken aback, “Then why did it let me ride it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had never seen Sangta ride the black panther and assumed that due to his status, he only rode that huge white tiger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But on reflection, she realized that even when the white tiger was not around, Sangta never rode the black panther.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a very kind smile, Qingyan explained, “That’s because Xiaohei has accepted you as its master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaohei is the child of Sangshu’s beast pet, Da Hei, but because Sangshu later became ill, Xiaohei didn’t choose her as its master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It just followed us around as if it wanted companionship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sometimes, it would go off on its own to hunt and not return for many days.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“When I was set to return to Gaochang, I sent it away, only for a black bear that held a grudge against it to take the opportunity to attack me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaohei sensed this and came to my rescue, and on the way, we encountered Sangta and his group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That time, it was indeed Sangta who brought me to you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether because he understands the language of beasts or because Xiaohei was grateful that he saved me, it followed Sangta and his group all the way afterwards.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But later, I realized I might have been mistaken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It just wanted to follow you and see what you were like.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Didn’t it try to curry favor with you on the road?” Qingyan said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Curry favor?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bringing me a wild rabbit?” Bai Ruozhu had thought back then that it was Sangta’s doing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And it helped you bite Jin Jing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do you think Sangta could command it?”\u003C\u002Fp>",1440,"2026-05-30T14:09:36.573Z","2026-06-01T04:31:25.023Z",1,"novelbin.me","0a02d6cb021a950e1dd6f47c066e26ec145b58b4aca02ead47e5417e2307ddd7","abandoned-woman-busy-farming-chapter-1353","abandoned-woman-busy-farming-chapter-1351",2707,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fabandoned-woman-busy-farming-cover.jpg"]
