Chapter 147 The Winter Night is So Cold

Lu An was going crazy in the palace alone because Pei Yan hadn't replied to his letter for a long time. He didn't know what had happened to Pei Yan. He asked Long Wu, but Long Wu also said he didn't know.

Today he brought snacks to Cheng Yan as usual. Xuan Ying combed his hair and took a walk with them. When it was evening, Lu An returned to Mingguang Hall. Lu An sat alone by the window with the window wide open.

When Eunuch De saw this, he hurried forward and said, "Oh, you might catch a cold. It's winter now."

Lu An thought: It turns out that it is winter already. Pei Yan has been gone for almost two months, and I have been alone in the palace for two months. At the beginning, Pei Yan replied to my letters normally, but later on, his reply speed became slower and slower, until now, there has been no reply at all.

Lu An didn't know why, but he just felt wronged. He was worried that Pei Yan would have an accident and that Pei Yan couldn't take good care of himself, but Pei Yan ignored him.

[Does Pei Yan think I’m annoying? I always write him letters, sometimes three or four pages at a time. Am I writing too much? 】

[Why didn’t Pei Yan reply to my letter!] What happened? 】

[Or... don't want me anymore...]

Eunuch De couldn't hear Lu An's thoughts, so naturally he didn't know what he was thinking. He knew that Lu An missed the emperor, so he went to bed very late every night and woke up very early in the morning. Since the emperor passed away, Lu An no longer slept in.

Lu An asked Eunuch De to leave. He walked to the desk again, picked up the letters written to him by Pei Yan, and began to read them one by one.

I think of you and kiss you thousands of times.

It's been a long time since I last saw Zhiyu. I miss you very much. The border is indeed bitter and cold, but fortunately I have the things woven by An An, and I wear them every day. It's my fault that I didn't wake An An up on the day I left. I will accept An An's punishment when I come back. I am fine, but I miss you all the time. I miss you too.

Lu An read letter after letter and said, "Liar, if you don't reply to my letter, I won't want you anymore."

Lu An couldn't help but write another letter to Pei Yan. There was only one sentence on the letter: "It's so cold in the winter night. Pei Yan, I'm still waiting for you."

Lu An found Long Wu and asked Long Wu to find a carrier pigeon to send it out.

Seeing that the matter had been settled, Pei Yan returned to his room, picked up the scarf that An An had knitted for him from the bed, placed it against his chest, looked into the distance, and thought to himself: I will be able to see An An soon.

The carrier pigeon he used to contact An An was probably shot dead, otherwise An An would not have not written to him for such a long time. When he wanted to go to the military camp to get another one, he found out that Mo Yuan used four or five carrier pigeons to deliver messages back and forth to the capital.

When Pei Yan first learned the news, he actually thought Mo Yuan was very smart and thought: Why didn’t I think of this? However, the series of deployments left him with no time to reply to An An, nor to report that he was safe.

Pei Yan walked to the desk, picked up a pen and began to tell An An, my beloved An An:

Seeing your letter is like seeing you in person, reading your letter brings joy to your face.

As a husband, I know that An An must be very worried about me these two days. I was wrong. I will leave it to An An to handle it after we return to Beijing. The overall situation on the border has been settled. I will return to Beijing to reunite with An An soon. I hope An An will feel relieved.

Pei Yan was about to fold it, but he opened it again halfway through, picked up the pen and wrote another sentence: "After several months of separation, I can't bear the thought."

The next day, Lu An couldn't help but leave the palace to find Long Qi. Pei Yan didn't believe him, and if Mo Yuan didn't believe him either, then something must have happened.

As soon as Long Qi saw Lu An coming, he knew what he was here for, because Mo Yuan would write him at least three letters a day. If he encountered something interesting, he would write more than three letters, so Mo Yuan never stopped writing to him.

Long Qi told Lu An everything that happened at the border during this period. When Lu An heard that the matter had been resolved, he looked at Long Qi expectantly, "Are Pei Yan and the others coming back?

Long Qi nodded slightly at him.

Lu An was very happy. "Then why will they come back? Should I prepare anything? Pei Yan is so amazing. He is worthy of being the emperor. Pei Yan is really amazing."

Seeing how excited Lu An was, Eunuch De said, "Sir, please be careful. Even if the emperor comes back, it will take half a month."

Lu An calmed down after hearing this, "I still have to wait half a month before I can see Pei Yan! Then can I go find him? Isn't there no danger now? I'll go find him."

Eunuch De exclaimed, "Oh no! That won't do. What if we miss the Emperor?"

Lu An thought about it and it made sense. He should just stay in the palace and wait for Pei Yan to come back.
