To express his firm stance, the Duke opened his arms and made a gesture of embracing the whole world to emphasize this point.
"But... I'm worried that Shuyan will be left alone after going to the capital."
Faced with the possible problems in this situation, Aunt Liu expressed her concerns in a gentle and compassionate voice.
"How could she be alone? Her mother and brothers and sisters are all still alive in the capital. How could she be so lonely and helpless?"
When this issue was mentioned, the tone of the National Security Palace became very stern.
"No matter what, I just can't let it go."
Aunt Liu frowned and spoke worriedly, with a hint of stubbornness in her tone.
"Then you should stay with her."
Duke Anguo turned slightly to the side, as if he was tired of the conversation. He stood up with a hint of impatience on his face.
"My lord!"
Seeing this, Aunt Liu hurried forward and grabbed his sleeve, her eyes full of worry, "What if I leave you? I still have to stay with you! You can't be left alone to take care of you."
"well!"
Duke Anguo immediately pulled his hand away and shook off her grip on his arm. There was a hint of helplessness and irritation in his voice. "This is troublesome, and that is problematic. Forget it. It's a waste of time to discuss this with you."
After saying these words, Duke Anguo shook his head, sighed heavily, walked out the door, and no longer paid attention to Aunt Liu's pleas.
Aunt Liu sat weakly on the chair, looking at the empty door with mixed feelings.
This matter is extremely tricky and requires careful consideration. We cannot act rashly.
Time passed quickly. After several summer rains, the sky became clearer and the temperature gradually became cooler and more pleasant.
On such a warm and breezy afternoon, Wen Zhu led the hostess of the teahouse to the side door. On the way home, they happened to meet Sheng Huaichen.
Because Su Yue was by his side, he did not take any excessive action immediately. He just stared at Wen Zhu in front of him with greed and weirdness in his eyes.
This prying look made Wen Zhu feel cold all over and a sense of fear rose in his heart.
It was obvious that Sheng Huaichen was still obsessed with her plan and had not given up.
In order to get rid of the awkward situation, Wen Zhu quickly lowered his eyes and said respectfully, "Hello, Second Young Master."
Before Sheng Huaichen could react, Wen Zhu turned around and quickened his pace, leaving his sight.
Looking at Wen Zhu's receding figure and her extremely beautiful face, Sheng Huaichen's heart was filled with ripples.
Soon he will be sent to a military camp in a distant frontier to carry out his mission. Who knows how long it will take for him to return to his homeland?
If you don’t seize the opportunity and take action now, you don’t know if you will have the chance to get in touch again in the future!
He touched his chin with his hand, lost in thought, racking his brains to find a feasible way to achieve his wish as soon as possible.
On the other hand, after a period of hard study, Wen Zhu's understanding of tea art has become increasingly profound, and his skills have improved at an astonishing rate.
This made Fu Yu, as a master, feel very gratified and proud - it really makes people happy to see his disciples working so hard!
One afternoon, Fu Yu suddenly suggested, "How about we go for a walk outside together tomorrow?"
"But...but I'm just an ordinary servant. I'm afraid that I'll be criticized by others if I just go out and wander around on weekdays..." Wen Zhu expressed his concerns with a little embarrassment.
After hearing this, Fu Yu replied in a gentle whisper, "What's so difficult about this? If you want to go out in the future, just let me know. I'll arrange for my men to accompany you and take care of your safety. Naturally, no one will dare to say anything or find fault with you. After you go out, you can spend your time according to your personal preferences and relax and have fun wherever you want."
"Thank you for your consideration and concern, my lord."
After hearing this, Wen Zhu's originally tangled brows finally relaxed, and a smile as bright as a flower blossomed on her face, making her look particularly bright and charming.
Seeing Wen Zhu's happy smile, Fu Yu was also deeply attracted and was a little dazed for a moment.
However, he soon remembered that he still had a lot of work to do, so he immediately took a few deep breaths to adjust his mentality, forcing himself to concentrate and return to his daily work state and continue to be busy.
At dawn the next morning, according to the agreed time, Wen Zhu boarded the comfortable sedan chair specially prepared for him by Fu Yu to go on a tour.
On the way, we passed through the bustling streets in the city center, stopped for a while in several scenic areas, and finally stopped in front of a famous quaint teahouse.
Because it was still early, Wen Zhu took Su Yue's hand and strolled leisurely on the street.
They chatted and occasionally stopped to stop at street food stalls to taste various delicacies.
Those delicious dumplings, jianbing, etc. are hard to resist, and the most popular ones are the dumplings freshly out of the pan.
What’s even more exciting is that while chatting with the vendor, they even learned how to make these buns and decided to try it themselves.
When they saw that the dumplings they made themselves were almost the same as those sold by street vendors, they smiled at each other, their faces full of a sense of accomplishment.
When they were about to go to the teahouse to rest, the sun had unknowingly risen to the middle of the sky, casting a soft yet warm sunlight.
The teahouse named "Yuhuchun" is quietly located in the hustle and bustle. With its antique and majestic appearance, it has become the most unique landscape among the surrounding shops.
Not only is it spacious, but it is also exquisitely decorated, and it is obviously a very popular leisure place in the neighborhood.
When you step into the teahouse, the first thing that catches your eye is the small and exquisite yet unique waterscape in the center of the hall.
The clear and transparent water flows between the stones, and the surrounding area is filled with potted plants of various shapes and lush greenery.
The air is filled with a light natural fragrance and elegant tea aroma, making the entire space instantly become exceptionally quiet and comfortable, making people involuntarily want to stay here for a while longer.
The two guests were greeted by a lady who was in charge of daily affairs.
After a brief and friendly exchange, she learned about Wen Zhu and Su Yue's basic situation and the purpose of their visit, and then invited them to follow her into the inner room.
The female manager, surnamed Mu, was very attentive and enthusiastic. She first introduced the current operating status of the teahouse to Wen Zhu in detail, and then took out several neatly bound account books for her to review.
In the following time, Wen Zhu sat in a comfortable seat and slowly savored the fragrant tea and exquisite snacks in his hand.
