C8

The carriage travelled day and night, and finally arrived at their destination — Evergreen City on the third day.

Because of the rich resources of the jade, the commoners lived a rich life. Street shops were bustling with noise and excitement, and people could be seen travelling about while wearing jade jewelry.

Ever since Chaxianyu found out that her favorite older sister, Princess Li Suren, was engaged to a general that she didn't understand at all, she had always been unhappy.

Shier Hong took out the most fragrant Plum Blossom Soup and asked her to taste it. Normally, Chaxianyu would have already received it happily, but right now, she only glanced at the plum flower cake powerlessly before continuing to lie on the ground, lost in thought.

Yu Er, we have arrived.

Chaxianyu shook her body as she unwillingly turned back around and followed Shier Hong out of the carriage with her head lowered.

Looking at the imposing Zuo Mansion that took up a few acres, Chaxianyu did not have the heart to sigh. She did not have a single ripple of emotion on her face, and like a ball that had been punctured, she followed Shier Hong forward in a daze.

Ah!" Suddenly, a broad chest appeared in front of him. Caught off guard, the tea fish crashed into it, causing it to be in so much pain that tears almost flowed out.

Why so absent-minded?

Hm?

Chaxianyu raised her head in a daze as she covered her nose. The man in black clothes and black boots stood quietly in front of her with her hands behind his back, as if she had seen that exquisite face of her somewhere before. Her long black hair flowed down like the feathers of a crow, her skin was an unhealthy pale white, and the fine lines of her lips were deeply pursed, as if she wasn't too happy. A pair of dark red eyes stared straight at her without blinking.

Master Luo?! Chaxianyu suddenly remembered, and blurted out a startled cry.

Humph. Luo Rongji slightly nodded, seeming to be dissatisfied, towards his savior, he very perfunctorily replied. He turned around and left a few words for Chaxianyu who was just standing there with her mouth wide open in a daze, to focus on walking.

Chaxianyu watched as the man disappeared in front of her, and her heart received another heavy blow.

Where did he go?!

Could it be a ghost …? Chaxianyu was startled by her own bizarre thought, all of the hairs on her body rise. Just then, Shier Hong's voice came out from the end of the corridor. Yu Er? Why haven't they caught up yet?

Ah, I'm here! Chaxianyu shook her head, and slapped her cheeks that had become stiff twice, she took a deep breath and chased after her.

Chaxianyu sprinted along the intricate paths of the pavilion, and finally arrived at the living room for Zuo Mansion together with Shier Hong. Just as they stepped into the hall, they heard a familiar hearty laugh. Little Ling, help me get the medicine box out of the cabinet …

Chaxianyu was immediately overjoyed, pouncing towards the beautiful figure in the goose yellow dress.

When Li Suren saw who it was, she was extremely happy. She reached out to hug the girl who was flying towards him in surprise and joy. Why are you here?

What's going on?" Only then did Tawnypelt realize that he had escaped from the palace on his own. She was flustered and stammered to make up a reason, but for a moment she couldn't think of anything to say. The Lisu saw through her, and the princess pretended to be angry, reaching out her white jade hand to pinch the tip of her nose.

Chaxianyu lowered her head in embarrassment. Sigh, it seemed like she could not hide anything from Sister Li …

Just then, Shier Hong walked over steadily, smiled and then bowed respectfully towards Li Suren, I am Xu Hong, and pay my respects to Princess Li.

Is this beautiful man the one you left to seek refuge with?" she asked in a low voice, tilting her head in excitement at the sight of the handsome man in the white dress and the golden eyes. Without waiting for a response from the tea envious fish, Liszt quickly held Twelve Rainbow's hand, laughing brilliantly like a flower. Master Xu is really elegant, handsome and refined, so refined that even a virgin would be mesmerized by it! In the future, your little sister, Xin Ning, will be under your care. If you need any help, please do not hold back.

Chaxianyu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She was just about to explain that this young master was her master … A light cough sounded from behind him, sounding like a warning.

Li Suren slapped her thigh. Aiyah, look at my memory! Yue Zhong is still waiting in the room for me to apply medicine on him! After saying that, she lifted up her dress and rushed into the house, not forgetting to turn her head and greet Chaxianyu and Shier Hong enthusiastically. The two of you, come in, my husband has been waiting here for a long time.

He was a first-class general of the Great Wastelands, capable of fighting and galloping through the battlefield. He must have been a tall, muscular, and brawny man of two meters in height. In the end, she followed behind him and entered the room. Upon closer inspection, she saw that a handsome man with long golden hair and a deerstalker cape was sitting under the soft curtain of the bed.

The man's hands were bandaged as he leaned quietly against the bed railing. His pair of soft, narrow eyes were filled with deep love as he watched Li Suren, who walked in carelessly with a medicine box in her arms. Shier Hong raised his hand, his tone full of ridicule and ridicule. Yo, a great First General of the imperial court, Master Zuo Yueshang, what's going on?

The man smiled gently, causing Lord Hong to laugh. When he returned to the city the day before yesterday, he had been too merry having a banquet and drinking wine at an inn.

Li Suren pouted her lips as she changed the medicine for Zuo Yueshang, while scolding Chaxianyu. Look at him, people who have already become generals are still acting like kids, because the marriage is already over, I don't know when I'll be able to recover from getting injured this time …

Zuo Yueshang reached out his good arm and stroked Li Suren's smooth hair, his tone full of self-blame.

In Chaxianyu's eyes, the good feeling she had towards the general had increased a little, when suddenly, a cold and calm voice came from behind him. Master Zuo, the wedding day is considered good, do you need to watch it now?

Zuo Yueshang straightened his body and took off the blanket on his shoulder, then spoke out to the door. Master Luo has worked hard, please come in.

Luo Rongji stepped forward with his two long legs, looking straight ahead as he entered. Chaxianyu was shocked, but Luo Rongji acted as if he did not know her and walked straight past her with an indifferent expression.

He knelt down and bowed towards Zuo Yueshang, then handed a pair of rolls in his hands over to him and said: Master Zuo, including the days when your arm recovered, the wedding ceremony will probably be postponed for a period of time.

So be it. Zuo Yueshang looked at the scroll in his hands and was deep in thought. He nodded after a while, and decided to follow Master Luo's instructions. The servant girl waiting by the side took the scroll offered by her mistress, and carefully withdrew from the room.

I will take my leave. Luo Rongji bowed and turned around swiftly. His pair of scarlet red eyes seemed to have intentionally or unintentionally glanced at Chaxianyu before he left.

Yue Zhong, why haven't I seen the little guy in green these days? After Luo Rongji left, Li Suren hugged Chaxianyu, and sat down by the tea table. Shier Hong stood by his friend's side, and opened his sleeves to brew the tea for Zuo Yueshang.

Ah, Madame is referring to Zuo Baozhu? Zuo Yueshang took Su Su Jin's white robe, and seemed to be doing it casually, when he said he wasn't feeling well, I sent him to take care of the garden at the back. He would take it as a good rest to take care of his body.

Chaxianyu gently asked Li Suren, who was Zuo Baozhu?

Li Suren laughed, she was a clever guy, and heard that his life was miserable, that she had no last name, that Master Yue Shang had helped him, and that he was pitiful, allowing him to enter the palace to serve and save his life.

Zuo Yueshang took over the conversation. I saw that he was naturally intelligent so I gave him a surname of "left". The name "Jewel" was intended to encourage him to cherish himself and shine like a pearl in the deep sea for the rest of his life.

But my lord, Jewel would rather you never give me a name.

An unexpected childish voice echoed in the crowd's ears.
