When the wisterias were all gone, the chaos in Liuquan City was finally put down.

Kang Wang Zhao Jing led the forbidden army to return to the court triumphantly, and was rewarded by Emperor Huiming.But Lu You waited eagerly in the Hongwen Hall every day, but he never waited for Tang Ruilang's return.

As in the middle of the year, Lu You became more and more anxious.He wanders in the daytime, and even wakes up from nightmares at night, and then sits in a cold sweat until dawn.

What is even more depressing is that no one can share this secret suffering with him now.

Even if he tossed and turned at night and wanted to cry, but once the sun was bright, he had to go back and forth between the Hongwen Hall, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Huiqing Hall and Hanlu Hall as if nothing had happened.

After the last conflict, Qi Yunchu became indifferent again, treating Lu You as nothing.And every evening, the bored Xuan Wang Zhao Yang still thought of ways to torment him.

Only the youngest son Zhao Rongze stayed beside Lu You with half understanding, watching the empty palace gate quietly, waiting for the familiar footsteps to return.

This terrible waiting lasted for five days.

On the afternoon of the sixth day, after receiving an official from the Ministry of Punishment in Huiqing Hall, Lu You wanted to go to Hanlu Hall to visit Zhao Rongze.But as soon as he walked to the pool in the front yard, he suddenly saw the young eunuch who was guarding the gate leading a young man hurrying over——

Who else could it be if it wasn't the Swiss franc? !

Lu You's heart beat instantly like a drum, sweeping away the uneasiness and haze of the past few days.He barely suppressed his emotions, sent the guide away, and held Tang Ruilang's arm tightly through his sleeve, and dragged him to the side of the forest to whisper.

"Why have you been away for so long..."

"The army was in chaos, and it took a long time to find someone."

Tang Ruilang looked tired, but his eyes were still bright and energetic.He took out a hairpin and handed it to Lu You.

"Look, is this your sister's jewelry?"

Lu You took the hairpin and looked at it carefully, and found that it was exactly the jewelry he bought for his sister at the shop in Liuquancheng on the day of Chongyang last year.

A trace of panic suddenly floated in his heart.

"If you found someone, why bother to show me the hairpin? Could it be that..."

"Don't be in a hurry."

Tang Ruilang embraced Lu You and asked him to sit down on a stone pier in the forest.

"After I arrived in Liuquan City, I immediately went to the Qin family, but it was looted by bandits and burned to a piece of scorched earth. I spent another day and went to the Qin family's other property in the mountains, only to find that there were only There are a few old servants who guard the courtyard. One of them secretly told me that a few days ago, some people came to Dayaowangyuan to pick up Qin Yizhao and others, but they did not take away your sister Yueshan."

"Then where is my sister? What happened?!"

Lu You felt suffocated for a while, he was eager to ask, but worried about hearing the bad news.

Tang Ruilang pressed his shoulder, telling him to be calm.

"The old servant said that your sister didn't come to Bieye with the Qin family at all, but was picked up by a man named Prince Wang."

Prince?Isn't that the person Yueshan's sister often mentions in her letters?

In times of crisis, this man took Yueshan out of the fire pit, probably to protect and take care of her?But in case he had other plans...

Thinking of the Renshi that once existed in the south of Zhaojing City, Lu You's heart still hung high in his throat: "Then where did you get this hairpin?"

"After leaving the Qin family's business, I returned to Liuquan and found Prince Wang's mansion after inquiring. The strange thing is that this family also moved away a few days ago. I asked the gatekeeper about Prince Wang's whereabouts. But the gatekeeper asked me if I came to find a 'Miss Yue', I said yes, so he handed this hairpin to me, and said that Miss Yue is all well, there is no need to worry about it, and I will see you again in the future opportunity."

"..."

Lu You listened blankly to Tang Ruilang's long speech, only the last sentence was the most clear.

Everything is fine, there is no need to worry about it, there will be a period later - this is all sister Yueshan's confession.

Leaving a hairpin as a token, she just left with that "Prince Prince" without even a parting letter or a decent explanation.

"I've been worrying about her for so many days, but she just... just left me with peace of mind and left?"

All of a sudden, the care and tension of these many days were all distorted into anger and grievance.Lu You's hands were clenched into fists, his face was livid, and tears were faintly shining in his red eyes.

Tang Ruilang pressed his twitching shoulder harder and harder.

"Your sister is safe and sound now, isn't that the best? It happened in a hurry, and she asked a stranger to spread the word. She really can't speak too carefully. If the gatekeeper learns about her and you, then Wouldn’t it be a big deal to sue the officials?”

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and wiped away the watery eyes that filled Lu You's eyes with his thumb.

"Think for the best in everything, and don't always push yourself to a dead end."

Lu You sobbed for a while, and finally came back to look at Tang Ruilang, and was shocked to find that there was a knife scar more than an inch long on the hand that stroked his cheek.

"……You are hurt?!"

"It's just a small injury."

Tang Ruilang shook his hand deliberately, and said lightly, "A sword has no eyes, it's really nothing."

Looking at the dark red wound, Lu You thought of Rui Lang's tireless journey and hard work for him these days, and his heart was touched and distressed, and there was also a faint sense of guilt.

When he came back to his senses, he had already held the back of Swiss Franc's hand in both hands.

"Go to the next door, I'll give you medicine."

"No need." Tang Ruilang smiled and shook his head: "What a big deal."

Lu You stared at him softly: "Didn't you also help me with medicine?"

Then, without any explanation, he led Tang Ruilang and was about to go out.

The two had just taken two steps when Lu You heard Tang Ruilang's sigh coming from behind.Immediately afterwards, his arm was pulled back suddenly, and he fell into Tang Ruilang's arms.

"It's really not necessary to bandage, but that's it. Let me hold you for a while."

"……Um."

Lu You was held in Rui Lang's arms, unable to move, and only blushed slightly.

He was silent for a while, then took a deep breath, and said softly: "Swiss, thank you. Thank you for everything you have done for me."

"You don't need to be thanked for doing things for the people you like."

Tang Ruilang lowered his head, took a deep breath in Lu You's ear, and then gently buried his face into Lu You's shoulder.

Passionate kisses with obsession and longing fell on Lu You's neck frequently.Each one is heavy and solid, even with a bit of sour-sweet pain.

Lu You couldn't breathe from being hooped, twisted twice with difficulty, then suddenly turned around and hugged Tang Ruilang as well, and began to respond positively.

In memory, this is the honesty and forgetfulness that have never been seen between them.Just like the past and the future, family status and past grievances are just a layer of blinding clouds.

This is the first time they have tried to break through the cloud.

Although the strength is not enough, although the haze may fall again at any time... But after all, they still glimpsed the light behind the clouds.
