”Stay with her.” Just when the Ghost Witch wanted to say something, Nalan Rongxuan suddenly opened his mouth and said that sentence, then turned around and left.

She looked at Yue Luoxue with a complicated expression. She was once glad that Young Master found her true love, but now she was hesitating. Was this girl, Young Master Yu, a blessing or a curse?

”Ghost grandma, your mission is to protect her well. I do not wish for anything else to happen.”

Last time, because she acted on her own accord and almost caused an accident to Luoxue, she had always thought that the Young Master had already forgiven her.

If she hesitated again between the young master and the old master, the young master would definitely not allow her to stay by his side.

The words just now were a test and a warning from the Young Lord!

The choice she had made wasn't that difficult. Although she was loyal to the old mistress, she was now the young master's man. From now on, all she needed to do was follow the young master's orders.

As for how the girl was doing, this was not something she should worry about alone.

Tuoba Hong sat in front of Tuoba Yu's grave for a long time, silently accompanying him. It was only when the sun had set and the pure white snow was covered with a layer of golden radiance that Tuoba Hong moved, and looked at Yue Luoxue who was at her side.

Luoxue, I do not wish for you to feel guilty regarding Yu'er. I believe that she did not care about her own safety when she blocked that arrow for you, and she did not wish for you to live in guilt. ”

Yue Luoxue's eyes reddened, she understood that Tuoba Hong was comforting her. She also knew that the deceased had passed away, but she couldn't let go of the fact that Yu'er was such a pure and beautiful girl …

”I... ”Yes, I will be fine, including Yu'er's portion.”

In the vast prairie, the sound of the wind rustled, causing Yue Luoxue's voice to echo out for a very long time as well, as she blew away into the distance.

On this snowy evening, Yue Luoxue made another promise in her life. From then on, there was an additional responsibility in her life, for Tuoba Yu, and also for herself.

After that day, Tuoba Hong's attention was completely focused on the matter of his ascension to the throne, and the heavy pain from the past few days could no longer be seen on the surface. Only, Yue Luoxue knew that she had placed that portion of the pain in her heart, so deep that no one else could see through it.

At the same time, he conferred the title of empress dowager to his birth mother and bestowed the title of Princess Huai Yu to Tuoba Yu. However, there was no one left in the huge imperial harem.

Therefore, the ministers started to have new ideas. Tuoba Hong was young and handsome, and was considered a male god in the eyes of many women with North Qi. He was also a good son-in-law in the eyes of many, and naturally, he wanted his daughter to enter the palace.

If his daughter was pampered, wouldn't that strengthen his position as an elder?

It was a pity that these opinions were all ignored by Tuoba Hong. Although the ministers were unwilling, because Tuoba Hong did not choose any woman, everyone felt comfortable inside, but they were not unbalanced.

Yue Luoxue did not interfere in the matters of the North Qi Palace. When they first started working together, she saw Tuoba Hong's ambition and wanted to pull Nalan Rongxuan along as an ally in the future.

But she never thought that she would use this chance to infiltrate the North Qi Palace, she truly treated Tuoba Hong as a friend, adding the matter of Tuoba Yu, she would never play any tricks on him, even if there would be a day when they had to oppose each other, she hoped that they would have a proper relationship.

She dragged her somewhat exhausted body back into the room. The empty room suddenly made her feel empty. When she came back in the past, she would always see Nalan Rongxuan, whether it was leisurely drinking tea or reading books.

In the past few days, she had been very busy. On top of that, because of the matter of Tuoba Yu, she had gotten sick, and every time she came back from her tiredness, she would somewhat relax a little when she saw Nalan Rongxuan in the room.

So when Nalan Rongxuan wasn't around today, Yue Luoxue wasn't used to it. When she realized the disappointment in her heart, she was secretly shocked. Habit was really a scary thing.

”You're not thinking about me, are you?” A clear voice rang behind him, and Yue Luoxue turned to see a smiling Nalan Rongxuan.

With her devastatingly beautiful appearance, and her eyebrows that were not really a smile, it was as if she could suck in a person's soul with just a glance. Yue Luoxue was momentarily stunned, but immediately after, annoyed.

Slightly annoyed, he turned his head away. ”Who's missing you?”

Looking at Yue Luoxue's angry and embarrassed appearance, Nalan Rongxuan's heart was filled with a faint sense of happiness. She had been forcing herself to smile these days, and it had been a long time since she saw such a vivid expression on her face.

”I went to see someone. Luoxue, after Tuoba Hong ascends the throne, come back with me.”

Tuoba Hong was slightly startled. Tuoba Hong had succeeded in making a name for himself, so returning to his hometown was understandable, but after thinking about Tuoba Yu and how he told her before that he wanted her to take care of Tuoba Hong and Aunt Fang, she suddenly didn't know how to reply to him.

Nalan Rongxuan's smiling face gradually turned cold because of Yue Luoxue's hesitation: ”You don't want to go back?”

”Of course not, I didn't forget about our agreement. I just wanted to talk to Tuoba Hong about it.” If Tuoba Hong wanted her to stay and continue helping him, she would also discuss it with Nalan Rongxuan. She did say that he would help Nalan Rongxuan get the world, but he did not say that she would always stay by his side.
