The night was quiet. After a long day of busyness, Wu Luoluo was so sleepy and tired that she just wanted to go to bed early. However, Shangguan Yun was still in a daze in the study and refused to come over for a long time. Seeing the candlelight in the study, Pin Hao and He Xiao at the door brought some ginseng soup and gently knocked on the bedroom door. Wu Luoluo got up to open the door and took it.
His Highness the Crown Prince had been off his food for the past few days, and they didn't dare to disturb him. Fortunately, the Crown Princess was very understanding and always helped them out in time.
"Sir," Wu Luoluo placed the ginseng soup on the table, gently stroked Shangguan Yun's hand holding the military book, and said softly, "I'm a bit tired. Will you accompany me to rest?"
Shangguan Yun picked up Wu Luoluo and placed her on his long legs. He lowered his head and gently sniffed the faint fragrance on her body, then replied in a muffled voice, "Okay."
Wu Luoluo showed a gentle smile and picked up the ginseng soup, scooping up a small spoonful to feed him. Her sir had been off his food and was getting thinner day by day. It really pained her heart.
Shangguan Yun drank a mouthful of the ginseng soup from Wu Luoluo's hand and said in a deep voice, "You've really been through a lot these days." He was in pain, and Wu Luoluo accompanied him and refused to sleep, with her eye - circles faintly turning black from exhaustion.
"I'm not tired. Drink more." Wu Luoluo held the small spoon with her fair and delicate hand, scooped up another spoonful of ginseng soup, and fed it to him. Seeing him obediently drink it, she was very satisfied.
Shangguan Yun lowered his head to sip the ginseng soup. Suddenly, he heard a melodious sound of the qin, as if it was coming from outside the prince's mansion.
Shangguan Yun trembled all over. He concentrated and listened carefully. Suddenly, he felt that the tune was extremely familiar. He suddenly let go of Wu Luoluo, got up, and rushed out, with his eyes slightly red. That tune was exactly the "Fireworks Fade Quickly" from the past!
In the courtyard, Pin Hao and He Xiao obviously also heard the sound of the qin and looked over in unison.
Shangguan Yun murmured to himself, "She finally learned this tune..."
The scene of Wei Dongling randomly strumming on his pear - wood guqin with all five fingers in the past was still vivid in his mind. He never thought that after more than half a year, she could now play this tune so smoothly and beautifully.
"Your Highness!" Pin Hao quickly blocked him and whispered with his head down, "The Crown Princess is still waiting for you to go to bed. Please think twice, Your Highness!" My lord! You finally brought a woman back, and she is extremely rare with great kindness and can accept your son! Please, Your Highness, don't interfere in someone else's relationship and ruin your own family just because of that tune!
Pin Hao held onto Shangguan Yun tightly and was almost about to cry from anxiety.
Shangguan Yun stopped in his tracks. Yes, if he rushed to see Wei Dongling like this, what about Wu Luoluo? She would surely be sad, wouldn't she?
He Xiao leaned against the tree and raised his eyebrows, saying, "Our Crown Princess is beautiful and kind - hearted. She's not someone to be ashamed of. Just take her with you." Besides, their Crown Princess was not the kind of petty person. Moreover, the Fifth Princess was so single - minded that she only liked Young Master Yu. No matter how handsome you were, she wouldn't even spare you a second look.
Shangguan Yun: I suspect you're deliberately stabbing me! Pouring oil on the fire and rubbing salt into the wound!
He Xiao: I suspect Your Highness is deliberately trying to deduct my salary! If you deduct it for another two years, I won't have any silver to marry and have children!
Shangguan Yun thought for a long time and felt that what He Xiao said made sense. Then he turned back.
At this moment, Wu Luoluo felt a bit bitter in her heart. She lowered her head and stared at the ginseng soup in her hand without saying a word. From her sir's actions just now, she immediately realized that the person playing the qin must be Miss Wei! Her sir knew she was here and still rushed out without hesitation to find her!
Then what about me? What am I in my sir's heart?
Wu Luoluo felt extremely bitter. If her sir left with Miss Wei regardless of everything, then what was the meaning of her coming to the capital this time?
Shangguan Yun didn't notice the bitterness in Wu Luoluo's heart. He flew over and grabbed Wu Luoluo's hand, asking in a low voice, "Luoluo, will you accompany me to see someone?"
Wu Luoluo looked up at him. Her bright eyes were filled with a hint of bitterness. She clearly saw the expectation in her sir's eyes and could only force a smile and say, "Okay."
What could she do? Once he opened his mouth, Wu Luoluo simply couldn't refuse! Even though her heart was in great pain, she still couldn't bear to refuse him.
Shangguan Yun picked up Wu Luoluo and flew out. Pin Hao was extremely worried, fearing that his master's inappropriate actions would anger the Crown Princess who he had finally brought back. He quickly followed, determined that no matter what, he would keep the Crown Princess by any means!
These days, it was not easy for his master to find a girlfriend!
He Xiao watched the backs of the people flying out, shook his head with a click of his tongue, yawned, and went back to catch up on his sleep.
Below the attic, Shangguan Yun stopped with Wu Luoluo in his arms. He looked up at the familiar figure on the second floor, and his eyes gradually turned red.
Wu Luoluo coughed gently to remind him not to lose his composure. She slowly let go of the hands around his neck, stood beside him, and stood shoulder to shoulder.
The sound of the qin suddenly stopped. The woman in the attic stood up and looked down at Shangguan Yun. Her face was full of tears.
Wu Luoluo's heart ached suddenly. It was really her! She was the woman Wei Dongling in the painting.
Her sir's painting was quite vivid. Miss Wei was like a beautiful woman walking out of his painting scroll. She picked up the guqin and lightly jumped down. Her figure was light and graceful, like a startled swan. She was so beautiful that she was like a fairy descending from the sky. Her beautiful eyes were filled with tears, and she stared at Shangguan Yun without blinking, crying so pitifully that anyone would feel sorry for her.
Shangguan Yun stood still and stared back at her. His nose felt sour, and tears welled up in his eyes. Why did he still feel so heart - broken when he saw Wei Dongling again after so long? He just wanted to step forward and wipe away her tears.
However, now that he had Wu Luoluo by his side, he was not qualified.
Wei Dongling silently looked at Shangguan Yun without saying a word. Two streams of cold tears rolled down.
Seeing Wu Luoluo looking dejected, Pin Hao was anxious. He even wanted to rush up and introduce their Crown Princess to Wei Dongling.
Although he had deliberately mentioned the Crown Princess to the Fifth Princess in passing in the past few days, he didn't expect their meeting to be so awkward.
Just as Pin Hao was secretly anxious, a figure in the darkness quickly rushed towards Shangguan Yun and hugged him. Pin Hao's face changed greatly. It was not until he saw that it was Yu Zixi that he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Shangguan Yun couldn't control his emotions and hugged Yu Zixi in his arms with mixed feelings. How long had it been since the two of them had been so close? Yu Zixi had become so thin that he hardly felt any weight when he crashed into his arms.
Shangguan Yun had heard from Pin Hao about Yu Zixi's serious injury. In the end, Yu Zixi still chose to give up everything at the last moment when the city was besieged. He stepped forward to block the knife stabbed by He Jingyao and protected Wei Dongling.
That was enough. He hadn't let down Wei Dongling's infatuation with him.
Shangguan Yun gently hugged Yu Zixi in his arms, full of emotions.
