After sorting out, she picked up the pen and continued writing.

Li Hongyuan stood next to her, observing her write —

“Thank you for your concern. My leg has improved a lot. In a month or two, it should fully recover. By then, riding a horse to visit you might not be a difficult task…”

Li Hongyuan took the brush from her hand abruptly.

Jiang Ning looked up at him: “My hand is dirty.”

When he took away the brush, the ink on the tip stained her fingers.

Li Hongyuan put down the brush, held her fingers, and meticulously wiped them clean with his handkerchief, suggesting casually, “Stop writing.”

“It’s just a reply,” Jiang Ning sat unmoved and did not pull her hand away, letting him clean it.

“This Prince doesn’t like it.”

“You’re overthinking,” Jiang Ning decided not to get upset with him, because it wasn’t beneficial for her.

Her tone softened accordingly.

Li Hongyuan meticulously inspected her hand, and once confirmed it was thoroughly cleaned, he let go, admitting, “I was wrong.”

“What do you mean?”

“I thought I could ignore the matter of you and Wenren Zong because I was far away in the Imperial Mausoleum, unable to take care of you. Now that I’ve returned, I can’t stay indifferent. Jiang Ning, you’re the Princess Consort of Yu. What are your plans for the future? Are you willing to stay with me?”

“Rest assured, I will never cheat on you.”

“Then stop writing this letter.”

“Writing letters between friends, is that too much?”

“Friends?” Li Hongyuan gave her a teasing smirk. “Do you even believe that?”

“I admit, I do have some affection for Thirteen, but it’s far from romantic love.” Jiang Ning turned to face him, “Your Highness, I have no reason to lie to you. I admire him more than anything.”

“Then who do you love?”

“If you’re referring to romantic love, none.”

“How do you see me?” As he asked this question, he inadvertently pursed his lips due to nervousness, making them a thin red line.

Jiang Ning laughed: “I’m your Princess.”

“You know that’s not what I meant.”

“You’re quite good.” Jiang Ning stood up, patted him on the shoulder, “It’s getting late, you really should go.”

A faint fragrance wafted off her.

Li Hongyuan wrapped his arm around her waist, pulling her towards him, looking at her beautiful face: “You are well aware of my feelings. It doesn’t matter whether your heart prefers Wenren Zong or He Tang. You can only be the Princess Consort to me.”

Jiang Ning raised an eyebrow slightly: “How did you know about He Tang?”

“You think I would really know nothing because I was at the Imperial Mausoleum?”

He removed a sachet hanging from her waist, swinging it idly on his fingertip: “You two were quite intimate in the past, I have had someone investigate.”

Jiang Ning stiffened slightly.

Things from the past…

She herself was not quite sure.

“What did you find out?”

“Don’t be nervous.” Li Hongyuan laughed, leading her to the bed, helped her sit down, “Don’t you know about your past with He Tang?”

Jiang Ning retorted, “What could have happened between us? We’re just neighbors who played together as children.”

“Really? You nearly got engaged, perhaps you’ve forgotten about that?”

“… I was not aware of this?”

“Just a young girl, but you seem to be quite forgetful..” Li Hongyuan smirked, “He Tang is talented, but do you know why he’s so eager to pass the imperial examination?”
