The King of Wu ran around in excitement.
He made up his mind that he must meet this beautiful woman who seemed like a dream today. He turned around and quickly straightened his fancy coat.
After arriving in Yanjing City, King Wu lived in her sister's Yan Mansion. Princess Donglin knew about King Wu's difficult situation, so she tried her best to compensate him.
The cloud brocade men's robe that the King of Wu wore was the most popular clothing in Yanjing City at the time. Its sleeves were like flowing clouds, and were embroidered with gorgeous Tan Gong Zhe Gui patterns. He wore a white jade crown on his head, and his chestnut-black curly hair still retained the style of the Donglin Kingdom, braided into a long braid with a gorgeous Nanchu pearl at the end of the braid.
The King of Wu tidied up his appearance and asked his bodyguard Zhang Wulang, "Does my outfit look impressive?"
Zhang Wulang nodded: "It is magnificent, but Your Majesty, the west side of Luoyue Lake is not open to the public."
King Wu fanned himself with satisfaction, "It's good to be grand. My unparalleled good looks will surely make that woman fall in love with me at first sight. Zhang Wulang, do you think I should return to Donglin to be a prince? If she is unwilling to return to Donglin with me, then I can only stay in Yanjing City... Well, I will find a way to bring my mother to Yanjing in the future so that our family can be reunited."
Zhang Wulang: ...
You are thinking too far ahead, Your Majesty, before we even start thinking about it.
The warm wind blew on his face, and the King of Wu waved the white jade fan in his hand again, like an elegant young man, looking at the girl he admired.
I had just taken two steps when I heard a "whoosh" sound.
Two sharp swords were unsheathed, and two guards in black brocade robes appeared and stood in front of the King of Wu.
The guard had a stern face and coldly reminded: "The front is a place for nobles to play, and outsiders are not allowed to approach."
King Wu narrowed his eyes and looked at the two guards in front of him. He has a sturdy build, sharp eyes, and is wearing cold black armor, looking strong and powerful.
You can tell at first glance that he is not an ordinary person's bodyguard.
They should not be the palace guards or the city defense troops. King Wu had seen the Daqing guards when he entered the palace before, and their clothes were of the wrong style. The King of Wu thought for a while and guessed that this was a servant of a general in Yanjing.
King Wu smiled and said, "I am not an outsider. The scenery of Luoyue Lake is infinitely beautiful. I think the pavilion in front is suitable for viewing flowers. Why don't you two pass on the message--"
The guard said coldly: "Don't come near. If you dare to take another step, I will kill you without mercy."
Two ordinary guards were so imposing that King Wu's heart was pounding with fear.
But he couldn't bear to leave.
The beautiful girl was right before his eyes, and he wanted so much to see her. King Wu explained: "I am the prince of Donglin Kingdom, and I sincerely want to meet that noble. If you hurt me, it will destroy the peace between the two countries."
The guards don't care about the prince.
He held the sword in his hand and stabbed straight at the King of Wu. The King of Wu was so frightened that he took a few steps back. The white jade fan in his hand fell to the ground with a clatter. He kept saying, "Don't use force. I'm leaving now! I'm leaving now! Whose servants are you? How can you be so fierce?"
Faced with the absolute force, the King of Wu dared not act rashly and had to leave in disappointment.
He hid at a considerable distance before stopping.
He glared at Brother Zhang Wu angrily: "As my guard, you should protect my safety. Those two guards drew their swords, but you ran faster than me!"
Brother Zhang Wu was helpless: "My Lord, I can't beat them."
The King of Wu was angrily gazing into the distance unwillingly. The water in the pavilion by the lake is flowing slowly, and the beautiful girl is nowhere to be found.
Probably went home to rest.
The King of Wu felt regretful, but was unwilling to give up.
For the next few days, he came to Luoyue Lake for a stroll every day. Sometimes I'm lucky and can see the girl's slender figure from afar; more often I'm unlucky and get nothing.
...
...
Time passes quietly and early summer has arrived.
Shen Wei was not idle, she spent every day exercising, doing beauty treatments, and doing business. As the weather got warmer, Chen Wei changed the decoration of the bedroom from inside to outside. The interior decoration in summer should not be too complicated, but should be simple and elegant, which looks more comfortable.
At night, Shen Wei rested comfortably on the Luohan bed. The room was filled with a faint fragrance, freshly picked lotus flowers were placed on the desk, and clear moonlight filtered through the window screens.
Shen Wei was sleeping soundly when she vaguely felt the bed move.
Her cheeks itched.
Li Yuanjing came to the bed and called in a low voice: "Weiwei, I'm back."
Li Yuanjing returned ten days faster than Shen Wei expected. Shen Wei's nose moved, and she smelled a strong smell of dust and some lingering sweat odor.
Shen Wei was so sleepy that she said in disgust, "It stinks."
In the bedroom, Li Yuanjing was stunned for a while, lowered his head and smelled his sleeve...
There is indeed a sour smell.
After resolving the mess in Nanchu, Li Yuanjing rode all the way back to Yanjing City at full speed. He wished he could travel at a rapid pace. He had no time to clean up himself. He traveled day and night and finally rushed back to the imperial farm in Yanjing City. He only hugged Shen Wei for a while before she rejected him.
Li Yuanjing reluctantly stood up and ordered the palace servants to prepare bath water and soap nuts. It was late at night and the bathroom was filled with steam. Li Yuanjing rubbed himself carefully and washed his hair.
The bath water was changed three times.
After changing into clean pajamas, Li Yuanjing wanted to return to Shen Wei's room. But when he looked at himself in the silver mirror, he saw that his beard was scraggly and there was a strand of white hair at his temples, and he looked rather unkempt.
Li Yuanjing sighed.
He took out a razor and shaved his sloppy beard halfway. The door behind him creaked, Li Yuanjing heard light footsteps, and Shen Wei's slender figure was reflected in the silver mirror.
