On the carriage back to the Prime Minister’s Mansion, Wei Ruxuan gently looked at Wu Shuang, who wore white clothes and the simple pearl hairpin, with a pampering look that even he himself didn’t realize.
“Wu Shuang, are you sure that you don’t want to stay at the college?”
“Yes, I’m sure. That’s such a filthy place. I never wanted to devote myself to the official career anyway.”
“Then where do you plan to go?”
“I haven’t figured it out yet. I’d probably just wander around.”
“In that case, please come back home with me.”
“No, thanks. I worry that your wife might be jealous.”
“I don’t have a wife.”
“Wu Shuang, come back to the Prime Minister’s Mansion with me. I’ll protect you and take care of you for the rest of my life. I won’t let anyone hurt you.”
“But I’m a man, Ruxuan. Aren’t you afraid that people will judge you if you stay together with me for your whole life?”
There had been so many cases, but no matter how hard the officials investigated, there was no progress at all. In particular, it alerted Prime Minister Wei, who’s almost the most powerful man in the Congress. The old Prime Minister handled the cases in person and finally found the murderer after a few days. It was said that the murderer was an assassinator from the Kingdom of Kong. However, when he was found, he had already killed himself and left no further clue at all.It was actually a long story.In the solemn, elegant Prime Minister’s Mansion, there’s a dark, abandoned little courtyard sitting in a remote corner, totally incongruent with the warm atmosphere. The only stone table and chair in this yard looked old and shabby, in bad repair for years.Right at this moment, servants surrounded the whole yard and guarded it strictly, and even a bird would find it hard to get in. A man’s miserable screams came from the only house near the yard w
Unexpectedly, Bu Xiaoyan secretly told her mother that she liked Wei Ruxuan and wanted to be his wife. In that case, Lady Bu was relieved. She thought that with such a caring father-in-law, her daughter wouldn’t suffer after getting married. So, she told Lord Bu about it, and Lord Bu said to the Prime Minister Wei with a smile, “Okay. Thank you, Prime Minister Wei.”“Please excuse me, for I need to go. Please don’t bother to walk me out, and I promise to ask Xuanxuan to come here and apologize in person later.”Prime Minister Wei was finally relieved and left the Bu’s house after settling down the engagement. He was not anxious to go back home to see what his son was up to anymore. It seemed that he had to break his son’s heart. That man called Wu Shuang could no longer stay with them. He couldn’t find anything about Wu Shuang’s history. What’s worse, that Wu Shuang had totally occupied his son’s heart, and his son was obsessed with him!At the
Clearly, today was a happy day. However, Prime Minister Wei somehow felt a little uneasy. This morning, he had a constant spasm on his left eyelid. He remembered an old saying that went, “Left eyelid spasm represents troubles while right eyelid spasm represents fortune.”That’s a sign of bad luck! Prime Minister Wei looked at his son, who’s supposed to be the happiest groom. However, his son was still acting like a stranger with a poker face. Prime Minister Wei couldn’t help but feeling a little worried. He just hoped that he was overthinking it.However, none of that affected the whole cheerful ceremony. The bride and groom came to the middle of the hall as people were cheering.The celebrant woman took the wedding bands from both sides of the red wedding ball and put them into the hands of the two newlyweds, respectively. The host of the wedding began the most exciting routine.“Firstly, worship heaven and earth.”Bu
At another corner, the man holding Wu Shuang in his arms was having a really hard time! Wu Shuang was in her sweet dream. Meanwhile, Xuan Zhi, as a healthy young man, was holding the woman he loved in his arms but couldn’t do anything. Only a saint or a eunuch would still feel nothing under such circumstances! He would have taken Wu Shuang away from here if it weren’t for the rain outside. Why did he have to be tortured like that? The moans, the heavy breaths, the sounds they made were echoing in the whole place! The erotic atmosphere was more and more arousing, and he was about to burn! However, before he almost lost control of himself, he let go of her and ran out to shower in the rain.Wu Shuang wasn’t really sleeping. How was it possible for her to sleep with those voices and sounds? She was no longer a naive girl. Even though this kind of thing could be her life-long wound because of Yun Su, and she didn’t want to think about it, she could still feel Xuan Zhi’s ere
Pushed away by Wei Ruxuan, the masked man fell to the ground. Weirdly, he was unable to move, but Wei Ruxuan didn’t even take a look at him. He hurried to check if Wu Shuang was injured. “Wu Shuang, are you alright?” “I’m fine, Ruxuan. Thank god you’re here in time.” “You’re safe now. You have no idea how scared I was. I thought I would never see you again.” Wu Shuang leaned on him. Her face looked pale yet still lovely. “Ruxuan, do you love me?” “Yes, of course, I do. Wu Shuang, don’t you know my feelings for you?” “Then Ruxuan, will you kill people for me?” “Who?” “People who hurt me.” “Then I will. I will do whatever you want.”“Kill the person who just tried to kill me.” “Alright.” As soon as Wei Ruxuan finished his words, Xuan Zhi immediately put a sword in his hand. The young man didn’t think much about it.
Wind and sand blocked my view.I couldn’t see the person but heard her beautiful singing,Clean and sweet like an oriole’s chirping.The delight I felt was as much as the sorrow I had.I wondered how many hearts were broken for love,Since it was always so hard to find a soulmate.I wished everything was nothing but a dream.I wished life could still be a beautiful song under the moonlight,When I woke up.A small city on the border of the Empire of Yun, Feng City, was a remote place where the emperor was far away, and the birds flew freely. Since any traveler going through the city had to cross a large desert against the persistent wind, the city became isolated. Even merchants from nearby regions rarely visited it, let alone outsiders. Although it belonged to the Empire of Yun, Feng City was more like a small country cut off from the rest of the world. Its endless desert and dry weather did cause some incon
“Miss Ruxin, would you like to go with me?” Yun Hai carefully observed Ruxin’s expression, including any small hints on her face. Of course, he had noticed Ruxin was lost for a moment, which he secretly found pleasing. The more he looked at the woman in front of him, the more lovely she seemed to be. Yun Hai was older and wiser. He could tell that she wanted to go with him, and he also wanted her to come. Yet he still added, “Of course, I won’t force you if you’re not willing to come.” He started to play games with her! “If you don’t mind, I’d like to stay there for a few days.” There was no way she would say no. Ruxin had been planning this encounter for days. How could she let go of such an opportunity! Neither of them realized that it was actually not their first meeting. But only God knew if Yun Hai, Lord Yi, ever regretted it after his life was put in danger due to this beautiful encounter. A long time ago, before the old King Yun des
Curtsying to Lord Yi, the princess consort took the children and left the main hall. She was no longer young and beautiful, but she still had the charm of a mature woman. Ever since four years ago, Yun Hai had never touched her again. Right now, perhaps the only bond between them was their daughter. Pinching her fingers into her palm, the princess consort felt uncomfortable, but she had to pretend to be a tolerant wife. Yun Hai didn’t notice the pain of his wife. Maybe he had never taken her seriously. Now, as he met Ruxin, all his thoughts went on her. Feeling Ruxin’s upset behind her enchanting smile, he wanted to comfort her but didn’t know how to act. Eventually, he just stayed where he was, not knowing what to do. Adjusting herself quickly, Ruxin showed her sweet smile and looked seductive at Yun Hai. However, the more Yun Hai gazed at her, the faker he felt. Nevertheless, he didn’t want to expose it. He chose to patiently watch her do the per
