Watson stood in the palace corridor, his eyes following the fluttering gauze curtains.
He couldn't help but feel a little solemn, because he knew that Emperor Duan Yu had summoned him today to discuss the ceremony of enthroning the queen.
Watson knew that the emperor attached great importance to this enthronement and every step could not go wrong.
"Watson." Duan Yu's voice came from behind, calm and deep, like the softest whisper in the night breeze.
Watson turned and saluted: "Your Majesty."
Duan Yu's face was filled with an indescribable happiness, an expression Watson had never seen before. Normally, the emperor always faced his courtiers with a calm and composed demeanor, but whenever he mentioned Gu Yufei's name, his expression would become incredibly gentle.
"Regarding the Queen's coronation ceremony, I hope there will be more dishes with red beans." Duan Yu smiled, his eyes sparkling. "Red beans represent longing and love. I hope to express my feelings through this ceremony."
Watson was shocked. He understood that this was not only a reflection of the Emperor's cherishment of the Queen, but also a reflection of the Emperor's deep affection for Gu Yufei. He nodded respectfully, "As you command, Your Majesty."
Duan Yu continued, "The venue should also be simple and elegant, without too many ornate decorations. It only needs to highlight the solemnity and dignity of the royal family."
"Yes." Watson responded, and began to plan the layout of the venue in his mind.
During the conversation, Duan Yu's eyes remained gentle as water. He seemed to be eager to see the moment when Gu Yufei was crowned as the queen.
The boy is no longer as naive as before, but calm and handsome.
There was a smile between his eyebrows, and the whole corridor was brightened because of him.
After receiving the instructions, Watson withdrew and began to prepare. He knew that this grand ceremony should not only demonstrate the majesty of the royal family, but also convey the emperor's deep affection for the queen.
Meanwhile, Duan Yu quietly approached Gu Yufei's room. He gently pushed the door open and found her lying on the table. Her profile looked particularly gentle in the candlelight, but a hint of melancholy was faintly visible between her brows.
Perhaps she was too tired, she slept soundly.
Duan Yu approached and found a few pages of diary spread out on the table. His eyes fell on them involuntarily, where some farewell words were written.
"Yufei?" Duan Yu's voice suddenly trembled.
Gu Yufei raised her head and looked at Duan Yu who suddenly appeared in surprise, with a hint of panic in her eyes.
Shouldn't Duan Yu be handling official business at this time? Why is he back so early?
"What do these farewell words mean?" Duan Yu's voice was soft, but it was filled with irrepressible worry.
Gu Yufei was silent for a moment, then said softly, "I just wrote this down. I don't mean anything else. My family died unjustly, and I miss them very much."
After Gu Yufei finished speaking, she turned her head away.
There were tears in the corners of her eyes, and she looked pitiful.
Duan Yu looked at her deeply and said slowly: "Yufei, you don't need to be afraid, because I am here, and I will redress the Gu family's wrongdoing."
"I know." Gu Yufei snuggled up to Duan Yu.
Her heart ached.
The happiness that you finally find will be lost in a few days.
At least, let her create some good memories with him before she leaves.
After she left, would he find someone else to be his queen? Would he fall in love with someone else?
