There was a touch of confusion in the eyes of Empress Hua. She was stunned at the appearance of the group with still some mud stains on their clothes. After a while, she asked softly, "What's wrong?"
However, Xia Huanyu had already walked in front of Empress Hua. Without answering her question, he just stretched out his hand and hugged her tightly.
Yun Shang saw that the body of Empress Hua stiffened for a moment, and her eyes flashed. In the end, she did not push Xia Huanyu away.
A hint of ecstasy flashed through Xia Huanyu's eyes. He quickly said, "Ling'er, follow me back to the Palace."
Empress Hua's face froze and she didn't respond.
Yun Shang turned around and winked at the people standing at the door. Then they left together.
The yard had been besieged by the imperial guards and the palace guards. Although the corpses of Su Ruji and Su Qi hadn't been found, they were most likely to have escaped. Yun Shang no longer worried about the safety of Empress Hua, and felt relieved. Since Xia Huanyu was here, it was not her duty to protect Empress Hua.
It was already noon. Yun Shang had been on the way without eating anything since last night. She didn't felt hungry until she finally relieved. Thinking that Xia Huanyu might still have a lot to say to Empress Hua, she smiled at Liu Wenan, who was waiting outside, and said, "Lord Liu, I'm afraid you must be hungry too. Why don't you go to have meal with me?"
Liu Wenan looked at the closed door of the yard with a smile. After thinking for a moment, he nodded and said, "Okay, I will go with you."
Yun Shang was indeed very hungry, so she stopped at a random restaurant. The shopkeeper noticed that Yun Shang was well-dressed and followed by several servants. He knew that she must be an extraordinary woman, so he quickly took her to a private room upstairs.
Qin Yi asked Liu Wenan what he wanted to eat and ordered a lot of dishes.
The shopkeeper poured tea for them and then hurried down to ask the servants to prepare food. Liu Wenan smiled and said to Yun Shang, "Your Highness, you have left Jin City for more than two months. Is everything okay?"
Yun Shang nodded with a smile, "I had been on tenterhooks these days, fearing... Since Hua Ling hadn't been restored to the throne, Yun Shang smiled and continued, "Fearing that something might happen to Her Ladyship. Now that His Majesty is here, I can finally be relieved."
Liu Wenan nodded and sighed with a touch of emotion, "When I heard that Her Ladyship was still alive, I thought that God is really fair. His Majesty had been blaming himself for not protecting Her Ladyship well for so many years. When we were at the top of Mt. Jun, I was thinking that if Her Ladyship fell off the cliff in front of him this time, His Majesty would never be able to live. Fortunately, everything turned to be perfect. Thank you very much, Your Highness. Thank you for protecting Her Ladyship well. "
"I'm flattered, Lord Liu. This is what I should do. After all..." Yun Shang curled up her lips and didn't speak it out.
A hint of understanding flashed through Liu Wenan's eyes. He smiled and sa
Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.
To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.
"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."
She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.
Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.
d, overwhelming joy and excitement in her heart.
Afraid of waking him up, Yun Shang lay down again and stared at the man unblinkingly. He became darker, thinner and his face is more angular, which made him look even colder. There were dark circle around his eyes. He might not have a good sleep for a long time.
Yun Shang felt sorry for Luo Qingyan and held him in her arms.
Luo Qingyan's eyelashes trembled slightly, and his eyes opened with a little confusion. After a long time, he seemed to see the person in front of him clearly. With a slight smile at the corners of his mouth, he got closer and imprinted a gentle kiss on Yun Shang's forehead. Then he said in a daze, "sleep."
Yun Shang blinked her eyes and smiled, "Okay, let's sleep."
Yun Shang fell into a light sleep for a while and woke up when she noticed someone moving. When she opened her eyes, she saw Luo Qingyan staring at her.
Yun Shang smiled, "Get up, I'm hungry."
Luo Qingyan also smiled. He sat up, put on his shoes, and fetched a long robe for himself. Then he called Qin Yi in to dress Yun Shang up. Without washing himself, he sat on the bench and looked at Yun Shang.
Yun Shang smiled and glared at him. Then she saw Qin Yi come in. Qin Yi helped Yun Shang into the bathroom to wash her face and rinsed her mouth. Then she took out a light green dress and a silver lace mantle for Yun Shang. After that, she help Yun Shang sit down in front of the dresser and started to comb her hair.
"I thought you would be back in a few days." Yun Shang looked at Luo Qingyan in the mirror with tenderness in her eyes.
Luo Qingyan smiled with burning eyes, "I rushed back myself, leaving Lord Hua Guo with the army."
Yun Shang glared at Luo Qingyan and said with a smile, "I'm afraid grandfather is also in a hurry to come back. After all Empress Hua is in Huaiyin City... How could you run ahead and leave him in the army?
Luo Qingyan raised her eyebrows. She thought for a moment and said, "your ladyship is right. Shall I go back to the army?"
Yun Shang glared at Luo Qingyan and kept silent.
