Chapter 363 Let’s drink to the east wind and be calm together.
The prince was extremely anxious and wanted to fly to the manor immediately to find out whether his Yu'er was inside.
However, even though he was extremely anxious, he knew that the manor belonged to Nalan. No matter what, he had to maintain some dignity and courtesy.
So, the prince suppressed his inner impulse, forced a smile on his face and said:
"Brother Nalan, I'm so sorry to bother you.
I am so stupid that I led you astray.
I just wanted to come in and ask for a cup of tea to quench my thirst, but I never expected that the person who came out to greet me would be you, Brother Nalan!"
Upon hearing this, Nalan was stunned for a moment, then he threw his head back and burst into laughter.
He waved his arms generously and laughed loudly:
"Haha, Your Majesty, what you said is very polite.
Come in quickly, I have the best Biluochun here!"
After saying this, he extended his hand enthusiastically, inviting the prince to come in.
Seeing this, the prince waved his hands and declined politely:
"Thank you for your kindness, Brother Nalan, but it is indeed late today and I am afraid it will be inconvenient.
When I have time someday, I will definitely come visit you again and we can catch up on the past."
Just like that, after exchanging a few polite words, the two waved goodbye and turned to leave.
Nalan stood where he was, watching the prince's carriage going farther and farther away until it disappeared.
Then he looked up at the sky and found that it was already late. If he didn't return home quickly, his mother would probably be angry again.
With this thought in mind, he did not dare to delay any longer. He quickly jumped on the horse, raised the whip, and urged the horse to gallop away.
The sound of horse hooves echoed on the empty road as they galloped towards their own mansion.
Daiyu lay quietly on the bed, the moonlight shining through the window lattice onto the bed curtains, looking particularly gentle.
She first turned gently to the left, but after a while, she slowly turned to the right. However, no matter how she adjusted her posture, she still couldn't fall asleep.
The figures of Zijuan and Xueyan kept appearing before her eyes.
Zijuan seemed to be a little fatter than before, and her face became rounder.
And Xueyan's skin seemed to become more delicate, as smooth as white jade.
Those times when I called her "girl" all the time seemed like a thing of the past life!
"Girl, girl, it's cold out. This is the hand warmer Sister Zijuan asked me to bring!"
"Girl, Sister Zijuan said you just took medicine, so you have to wait a while before eating!"
"Bah, you have to listen to her!"
……
The past is still vivid in her mind, and she can never go back to the past.
Suddenly, Daiyu suddenly remembered how they came to the capital.
What was even more strange was that they were still with Baoyu. Could it be that they also knew about his disappearance?
She sighed deeply, her thoughts drifting away involuntarily.
How is Xiangyun now? And that child...
After I left, what happened to Xiaowan and Xiaoling in the palace?
Just as Daiyu was tossing and turning in bed, Furong, who was lying on the couch, suddenly stretched out her arms and yawned lazily.
She mumbled in a daze:
"Girl, go to sleep quickly. Our young master will be here tomorrow after he finishes his work!"
Hearing this, Daiyu was slightly stunned, and then she got out of bed quietly.
She walked to Furong and stared at her sleeping face. She was only sixteen or seventeen years old, in her twenties.
Seeing that the quilt on Furong was slipping a little, Daiyu couldn't help but reach out and carefully pull it up until it covered her shoulders.
Then she blew out the candle on the table, and the room was suddenly plunged into darkness.
With the faint moonlight, Daiyu returned to bed and soon fell into a drowsy sleep.
Nalan returned to the mansion and seeing that it was getting late, he tiptoed back to the study.
Just as he was about to lie down, Little Leo came over. He was not on duty tonight, and seeing that the young master always came back late recently, he wanted to come in to complain.
Little Li poured a cup of tea for Nalan and couldn't help saying:
"Sir, could you not come back a little earlier?
You don’t know, the old lady scolded me, the aunt scolded me! "
Nalan's mind was filled with Daiyu's graceful figure, her gentleness and quietness, her knowledge and good manners, her elegant conversation...
Hearing what Little Li said, he drank a cup of tea and said casually: "Tell me, if you like that girl, I will make the decision for you!"
Little Leo suddenly blushed in embarrassment, touched his head awkwardly, and muttered softly:
"I just don't know if Furong likes me?"
Nalan suddenly burst into laughter.
He walked down from the desk, laughing so hard that he was out of breath, and looked up and down at Leo, with whom he had grown up.
Just as I was about to tease him, the door creaked open.
Little Leo quickly walked over to greet him:
"Greetings to Auntie. Young Master will be in Auntie's care. I am withdrawing now!"
After saying that, little Li's eyes rolled around and he kept making faces at Nalan, which looked very funny.
Then, like a nimble monkey, he turned around quickly, took two steps at a time to the door, reached out his hand and gently pushed it, closing the door.
Yan turned around, poured a cup of hot tea, and walked towards Nalan with a smile on her face.
Her pointed oval face looks like a charming fox, especially when she smiles, two shallow dimples appear on both sides of her cheeks, making her look even more charming and attractive.
When she reached Nalan's side, Yan leaned over slightly and gently handed the teacup in her hand to Nalan's mouth.
She said coquettishly, "My husband, this is the Biluochun tea I just brewed. Come and try it and see how it tastes."
Faced with such an attentive Yan, Nalan felt uncomfortable all over.
He shifted slightly and said awkwardly:
"It's getting late, Qing'er, you should go back to your room and get some rest!"
Hearing Nalan's words, Yan Ruoqing couldn't help but raise her head, staring at the man in front of her who made her fall in love with him.
He had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and was of imposing bearing. Not only did he come from a prominent family and possess immense talent, he was also highly regarded by the current emperor and was a popular figure around him.
Although she had given birth to a son for him, and his original wife, Mrs. Lu, had passed away several years ago.
But even so, why is he always so cold to me?
Thinking of this, Yan Ruoqing felt a little sad, but she still called out softly: "Husband..."
Before Nalan could react, Yan couldn't help but sit on his lap, looking at him with infatuated eyes, muttering:
"Let's drink to the east wind and be at ease together!"
After saying that, she stretched out her hand and kept groping Nalan's chest. Seeing that her husband was unmoved, she sighed softly:
"It's a pity that the flowers will be even better next year, but who will share them with me?"
Unexpectedly, Nalan pulled her up from his body and said calmly, "It's late at night, and the child needs someone to stay with him. Qing'er, you should go back to your room quickly!"
Tears welled up in Yan's eyes, and she suddenly remembered what the maid said:
People say that the young master has a peerless beauty hidden in his manor! Auntie, do you know?
