Seeing the two acting so intimately, Murong Yunxi could no longer hold back. With tears in her eyes, she stepped forward, pointing at Wu Luoluo in Shangguan Yun's arms, and asked in a trembling voice, "Who is she? Brother Yun, I'm asking you! Who is she?"
Shangguan Yun gave Murong Yunxi a cold glance, tightened his embrace around his beloved wife, and whispered, "Luoluo, let's go home." He originally just wanted to quietly come back to check if everything at home was okay. Since Wu Luoluo was also here, he might as well take her back to meet his parents.
They had shared a bed every night. It was high time he gave Luoluo a proper wedding ceremony.
The servants of the prince's mansion were quite surprised to see this group of people gathering at the gate. The tall and straight man at the front walked just like their Young Master Yun, but he was wearing a smiling doll mask and holding a shy woman in his arms. They were not sure. Their young master would never do such a thing!
The key was that there was also a young and noble - dressed woman following behind the man. The servants took a closer look and were greatly shocked. Wasn't that Princess Yunxi, the seventh princess? Why was she here?
Shangguan Yun asked the servant in a cold voice, "Where is He Xiao?"
Out of instinct, the servant bowed and replied, "Just now he said he was going to find Lord Pinhao. Since he couldn't find him, he left." After answering, the servant was surprised to find that the person in front of him, with his gestures, habits, and tone of questioning, was undoubtedly their young master!
The servant knelt down tremblingly and asked, "Young Master, is it really you who has come back?"
Shangguan Yun whispered, "Yes. Go and inform Father and Mother that I'm back." And by the way, let them come and meet their daughter - in - law.
That was definitely their young master's voice! The servant burst into tears, quickly opened the big gate, and rushed towards the main hall like a whirlwind, shouting along the way, "My Lord! My Lady! Our young master is back!"
Shangguan Yun carried Wu Luoluo and strode into the mansion. Juan'er quickly followed beside him.
Who would have thought that the young master was actually the young master of the Celestial Dynasty's prince's mansion?
Wu Luoluo was extremely nervous. She cautiously poked her head out and said tearfully, "Young master, why didn't you tell me earlier? At least I could have been mentally prepared." It was all over. She looked so shabby today, didn't even dress up deliberately, and didn't even wear a veil! Coming back home with the young master like this, would it make him lose face?
Shangguan Yun carried Wu Luoluo all the way to the main hall gate and then put her down. He took off his mask, firmly held her hand, and comforted her, "It's okay. With me here, you don't need to prepare anything."
The guards in the courtyard were the first to get the news. Seeing that their young master had really returned, they quickly knelt down on one knee to pay their respects. Shangguan Yun waved his hand repeatedly, signaling them to get up.
Murong Yunxi followed behind and saw Shangguan Yun take off his mask. She quickly stepped forward, trying to grab his sleeve, but was quickly stopped by the guard beside her. "Your Highness, Princess Yunxi, please respect yourself. Our young master doesn't like others to touch him."
Murong Yunxi: …
Wu Luoluo: …
No wonder this guy got really angry when he woke up and saw her so close to him. It turned out he didn't like strangers getting close.
But how did he change gradually later? He seemed so uncomfortable if he didn't stick to her for a single day. Even after 49 days, he didn't behave himself. He even had to sleep with her every night in the Xiang Mansion.
Wu Luoluo remembered how he clung to her last night. Her cheeks blushed involuntarily.
The prince and the princess, who had rushed over after hearing the news, stared closely at Shangguan Yun with tears streaming down their faces and sobbed. Shangguan Yun pulled Wu Luoluo and knelt down, saying, "Son is unfilial. I'm back late. I've made Father and Mother sad, and I'm very self - reproachful."
After learning the news of Shangguan Yun's death, the princess's eyes were almost cried blind. Seeing her own son kneeling in front of her with her own eyes, the princess rushed over, held Shangguan Yun's face, and looked at him carefully, stroking it again and again. With red eyes and both sobs and tears, she said, "My son, is it really you who has come back?"
Shangguan Yun's nose twitched. He tightly hugged the princess, and the mother and son cried in each other's arms.
Wu Luoluo's eyes were slightly red. She felt happy, sad, and envious at the same time. She remembered the scene when her parents abandoned her when she was a child. She chased after the carriage, but the people in the carriage never even lifted the curtain to look at her.
How lucky the young master was to have his parents alive and love him deeply.
After waiting for his parents' emotions to calm down a bit, Shangguan Yun waved his hand and introduced, "Mother, this is your daughter - in - law. Her name is Wu Luoluo. It was she who did her best to save me and bring me back!"
Meeting her in - laws for the first time, Wu Luoluo was a bit nervous. She stepped forward timidly and bowed.
Murong Yunxi's face immediately changed.
"Daughter - in - law?" The prince and his wife exchanged a look, and both of them were overjoyed. Shangguan Yun hardly had any interest in women. The only woman he had brought back, Miss Wei, was later Princess Wu. However, Princess Wu didn't seem to have any feelings for him.
They never expected that this time he would bring back a woman seriously and tell them she was his daughter - in - law. Naturally, the two elders were extremely happy.
"Luoluo, thank you for saving my son!" The princess was full of joy. She helped Wu Luoluo up and quickly ordered the maid, "Go and get the set of headdress that I've treasured for many years from the cabinet!" The meeting gift for the daughter - in - law had to be the best! This woman looked simple, kind, well - behaved, and sensible, and she had even saved her son. Naturally, the princess was full of gratitude.
Seeing that the people in the prince's mansion completely ignored her existence and were so attentive to that pock - faced woman, Murong Yunxi felt extremely jealous. She stepped forward, grabbed the princess's sleeve, and called out softly, "Your Highness, Princess. This woman has an unknown background. She looks shabby, and her appearance is hard to describe. How could she possibly be worthy of my Brother Yun! Who knows if she just took advantage of saving Brother Yun and gave him some kind of love potion to make him lose his mind! You can't easily believe her!"
Everyone's faces froze. They really didn't expect Princess Yunxi, the seventh princess, to say such inappropriate words in public without regard for etiquette.
Wu Luoluo was even more panicked. She subconsciously leaned closer to Shangguan Yun.
The princess was not happy to see this. The woman brought back by her own son didn't need others' opinions. How dare someone bully her daughter - in - law in front of her?
The princess nodded and forced a smile at Murong Yunxi, saying indifferently, "Oh, isn't this Princess Yunxi? Why aren't you keeping vigil in front of your late father's spirit? Why have you come to the prince's mansion?" After saying that, the princess glanced at the nanny beside her.
The nanny beside her was the princess's confidant. She immediately understood and stepped forward to support the princess's hand, sighing softly, "Don't be angry, Your Highness. To be honest, Princess Yunxi is quite pitiful. Now that she has lost the protection of the late emperor and her mother has gone to keep vigil and has no time to teach her, that's why the seventh princess doesn't even care about the royal dignity! On such a happy occasion when our young mistress first comes to the mansion, the seventh princess can actually say such mean - spirited words. It really has opened this old servant's eyes!"
Murong Yunxi's face changed greatly, and she shouted angrily, "You..."
