dim lights

Shen Tingyun followed the prince's instructions and led his secret guards to thoroughly investigate several disaster-stricken cities in Victoria and the surrounding areas. As expected, he got a list of officials that Qi Shiyu needed.

The little guard happily returned to the mansion where he temporarily lived in Weizhou, but he didn't see the prince immediately, he only saw people coming and going in the mansion, all of them were packing their luggage.

"Brother Cang Ming, what's going on?" Seeing that Cang Ming was directing a few servant girls to carry the prince's clothes, Shen Tingyun stepped forward to ask.

When Cang Ming saw Shen Tingyun, his face was full of joy: "You are back, I am worried and don't know what to do." Then he told Shen Tingyun the whole story.

A few days ago, there was a decree from Beijing, saying that the prince should return to Beijing immediately to report on his duties alone, and he was only allowed to bring a servant.Cang Ming's martial arts are not top-notch for those who have traveled long distances, but if it were someone else, they would be afraid that they would not be able to take good care of the prince, so they are worrying.Now that Shen Tingyun comes back in time, everything will be solved easily.

"It just so happens that when you come back, I will stay in Weizhou to take care of Young Master Yuehua. I will take Young Master to Beijing after I understand the situation in the capital and His Majesty's attitude."

"Young Master Yue Hua?" Shen Tingyun was puzzled, he had only been out on business for half a month, how could a Young Master Yue Hua appear out of nowhere.

Cang Ming already knew about the little guard's Lord Xinyue, so he deliberately told him first, so as not to make the little guard feel uncomfortable when he found out later.

"As soon as you left, the magistrate of Victoria held a banquet. At the banquet, the number one in Victoria, the son of Yuehua, was invited. Who would have thought that the prince fell in love with the son at first sight and swore that he would not marry him. Let all of us serve as the mistress of the palace. wait for him."

Shen Tingyun was dumbfounded when he heard it.How come I have only been away for half a month, and the prince has even decided on lifelong events?

Although he knew that such a day would come, Shen Tingyun felt really sad when he really had to face it.He didn't dare to ask any more questions, and stood there in a daze, as if as long as he didn't ask, Cang Ming would show a successful smile in the next moment, saying that there was no such thing as Mr. Yuehua, and he was kidding himself.

It's a pity that Cang Ming couldn't say what the little guard wanted to hear, so he patted Shen Tingyun on the shoulder and sighed: "Tingyun, please be careful, it's really inappropriate for the prince."

Shen Tingyun didn't think too much, and subconsciously asked, "Why isn't it suitable?"

Cang Ming shook his head and did not answer.

It was only then that Shen Tingyun realized that his head was getting hot and he had said something wrong.The prince is rich and noble, elegant and elegant, but he is just a guard from a lowly background, how can he have the qualifications to be compared with the prince?

The little guard said to himself silently in his heart, you stole the prince for one night, aren't you satisfied?In this world, there is nothing to be afraid of, only lack of human heart is the most terrible thing.

But...but... even though he was clear in his heart, he still couldn't control his sadness.

The little guard curled his lips, with tears rolling in his eyes, he tried his best not to cry in front of Cang Ming, and walked quickly to the back house.

I haven't seen him for half a month, but the prince still looks suave and romantic in the past, wearing a bamboo blue cloud brocade robe, seeing himself with a slight smile behind him, he said: "Jingyun, are you back?"

Seeing Qi Shiyu, Shen Tingyun immediately threw away the sadness in his heart, ran towards the prince, and took out the list obtained after half a month of hard work like a domestic dog asking for credit.

"That's right, the things entrusted to you are better than others." Qi Shiyu carefully put away the hard-won list of the little guards.

However, with a flat compliment, the little guard giggled happily as if he had received a reward of ten thousand taels of gold.

Qi Shiyu didn't say much, he ordered people to pack his luggage, and immediately set off to return to Beijing. Before leaving, he didn't even look at Mr. Yuehua.Shen Tingyun was curious about the appearance of Mr. Yuehua, but after thinking about it, the prince couldn't distinguish his appearance. If Mr. Yuehua could fall into the eyes of the prince, he would definitely not be just a good-looking empty shell, but he had a short side. , what I can see is only the skin, and it makes no difference whether I see it or not.

The boat on the way back, the sailboat swayed with the wind, all the way to the northwest.

The little guard stopped talking to the prince for another whole day, not knowing whether to speak or not.

"Whatever you want to ask, just ask, Tingyun, the king and you are not considered other people." Sitting in the cabin, Qi Shiyu saw Shen Tingyun's hesitant look, and felt a little funny.This little guard had a hard life since he was a child, but he was simple and couldn't hide anything.

Shen Tingyun rubbed his hands, lowered his head and looked at his boots, and said timidly, "My lord, you and Mr. Yuehua are also just like before, are you playing on the spot?"

Qi Shiyu laughed out loud this time, and beckoned to the little guard, and Shen Tingyun obediently knelt beside him.

Qi Shiyu patted the little guard's head, and asked him: "Silly boy, life is just like a play, why do you have to distinguish it so clearly?"

Shen Tingyun couldn't understand the meaning of the prince's words, but he had used up all his courage to ask the first sentence, and he didn't dare to ask any more, but Qi Shiyu spoke again: "I'm standing there now In a daze, do you just want to ask this?"

Shen Tingyun shook his head, but he didn't know what he wanted to ask, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Will the prince really marry Mr. Yuehua into the mansion?"

"Are you worried that Hua'er will treat you badly if she enters the mansion?" Qi Shiyu gently pressed Shen Tingyun's head on his lap, and said as if coaxing a child, "Although Hua'er came from a more difficult background, but Gentle temperament, will not treat you badly."

The little guard blushed and was completely unable to ask another word.

It was too close, I was really too close to the prince, the prince didn't even need to listen carefully, he could hear his gradually beating heartbeat.

Shen Tingyun got up in a hurry, not daring to continue lying on the prince's lap, for fear of revealing his thoughts.

"Don't move, just lie down like this for a while." Qi Shiyu didn't let Shen Tingyun get up, "You did a good job with the job I entrusted to you. What do you want me to reward you for?"

"Reward? Serving His Highness is a subordinate's blessing. How can I ask for any reward?"

Qi Shiyu refused to follow, and insisted on asking Shen Tingyun to say something.

Shen Tingyun blushed and thought for a long time, and finally choked out the word wonton.

Qi Shiyu chuckled, and said, "What kind of reward is this? If you really like it, I'll just make you a bowl myself."
