Wan Ge actually understood what the Empress meant. The Empress was saying that if you really like someone, then go for it.
It's not that Wan Ge doesn't want to! It's just that in this world... being able to get close to him is already a blessing.
Wan Ge simply smiled and said she would try her best, without saying anything more to the Empress.
The Empress still had state affairs to attend to, so she granted her request to wander around the palace at will.
…
The guards following behind Wan Ge had only taken a few steps when they realized the general was gone. Were they walking too slowly? How could the general disappear as soon as he turned the corner?
The guards were stunned for a moment, then quickly split up to search for the person. They felt that the general was probably not familiar with the palace, and what if he accidentally wandered into the inner palace?
Little did they know that the general they were looking for had already run to the inner palace and was standing on the palace wall of their prince's bedroom.
Wan Ge met her little villain, Yue Qiwan. The little villain definitely wouldn't attend tonight's banquet. He wouldn't even show up at a regular palace banquet, let alone a banquet with so many women.
His frosty coat, like himself, was pure and elegant. No one knew what he was thinking. He sat on the veranda, holding a zither in his hands. The wind chimes under the eaves tinkled. A gentle breeze brushed the stray hairs on his forehead, blowing away the petals that had fallen on his hair, but it could not blow away the sorrow in his eyes.
Compared to the first time I met him, when he was contemplating suicide, hopeless about life, and completely calm, he now seems to be suffering more, perhaps even to the point of being unable to take his own life.
Because he knew that if he left, those who loved him would be in great pain, so he lived in a daze.
When Wan Ge thought about how everyone comforted others, they would say something like, "Take it easy," but when the same thing happened to them, they realized that they couldn't take it easy at all.
It's good to have someone to accompany you and someone who loves you, but if you don't, you have to bear all the pain alone.
The singers held on tightly, but the worst bastards were still that group of people.
Yue Qiwan seemed to sense something and subconsciously looked up at the palace wall, only to see a wall full of jacaranda trees and not notice anything else.
Yue Qiwan lowered her head again, perhaps it was just her imagination.
Just then, a palace attendant's voice came: "Your Highness, Your Highness, we found an injured kitten outside the door."
The palace attendant was holding a small white kitten in her arms. There was a faint trace of blood on the kitten's hind leg, and it was unclear where the injury had occurred.
Yue Qiwan slowly got up, put down her zither, and took the kitten from the palace attendant.
But at this moment, another, older palace attendant came over, quickly took the cat from Yue Qiwan's arms, and helplessly scolded the previous attendant: "I don't know where this stray cat came from, how could you let His Highness hold it? What if His Highness gets hurt?"
Yue Qiwan said softly that it was okay, but calmly watched them take the kitten away.
After they left, Yue Qiwan looked a little disappointed, and Wan Ge on the wall took in all of this.
…
It took a long time to find Wan Ge's guards... oh no, it should be said that Wan Ge took the initiative to find them.
Wan Ge told them that she had something to do and needed to leave first, but would be back before the banquet started.
Although the guards had doubts, they dared not say anything more and could only answer "yes" before turning around to report to the Empress.
They dared not mention that they had lost their way, fearing that the Empress would think they were useless and punish them.
