C506 A red rope (1/2)
Lian Ruyue's face turned slightly red, the color of a peach blossom for the first time. She said in a low voice, ”A year or so, it will soon be over.”
”Do you know of the phrase 'living your days like a year'?” His deep voice lingered in her ears as he inched closer to her, attentively staring at her face. He wanted to bring along every single expression on her face.
In the words of the night wind, it was as if our master was split into two people. Facing the outside one person, facing the big miss, and facing the other person, and facing the big miss, outsiders would often have a hard time seeing what the big miss was talking about.
That day, they spent a quiet and pleasant afternoon in the peach forest, talking about their past and present lives. Before Feng Yunzheng left, he held her shoulders and said:
”Now that I think about it, once I've completed my mission and returned to the capital, it would be right when you'd have reached your prime. At that time, I would have to go to the prime minister's mansion with three books and six gifts. Yue Er, wait for me to come back and marry you. This time, you are not allowed to forget about it.”
”What would you do if I forgot again?” Lian Ru Yue blinked her cunning eyes as she asked.
”If you forget, I'll make you remember.” He lowered his head and took her hand. He tied a red rope around her wrist and a red rope around his own wrist and said, ”These two red ropes were originally one, but now that I've cut them in half, you and I will never forget them.”
Lian Ru Yue lowered her head and looked at the red rope on her wrist. She pulled on the corner of his clothes and said, ”Your Highness, take care. I look forward to your return.”
Feng Yunzheng laughed, he was already very satisfied with what Lian Ru Yue had said to him.
Before he left, he summoned Leng Mei and all the guards who were protecting Lian Meng Yue. He emphasized once again that the person they were protecting was the future mistress of Duke Heng's residence. They needed to ensure that she was unharmed.
When everyone heard the ninth prince's words, they could only kneel down in unison.
On the third day, Feng Yunzheng departed the capital. It was still unknown just how long this journey would take.
On the day she left, Lian Ruyue planted a plant in the southeast corner of her courtyard. Looking at the unremarkable sapling, Qing Dai asked,
”Eldest Miss, what flower is this?”
Lian Ruyue poured some water on the plant and said, ”We'll know in half a year.”
When Fairy Qingdai saw that Meng Yu didn't say anything, she didn't pursue the matter and only dutifully took care of the plant. Since Eldest Miss said that she would find out in half a year, she would definitely find out.
The Duke of Yue's estate.
Princess Yue, Xiao Rou, leaned against the head of the bed with a shy face as she looked at the man in her dreams with a blushing face. She raised her hand and carefully depicted Feng Qianyue's exquisite facial features.
He suddenly sat up and looked at Xiao Rou beside him. Every day when he was facing this woman, his emotions were always so complicated.
”Your Highness, you're awake. Rou Er will help you undress.” Xiao Rou really loved this man very much. It was as if she wanted to always kneel down and beg for mercy.
