It was late at night.
The pale moonlight shone into the room.
Then I saw a woman quietly get off the bed.
They walked outside.
After the woman left, the man who had been sleeping on the bed slowly woke up.
He opened his eyes and looked in the direction the woman had left.
There was no sound.
He just lay there, closed his eyes, and then opened them again.
I touched the area next to it that was still warm.
She was indeed not there.
Yuwen Xu lowered his eyes, his eyelashes trembling, and after a long time, he closed his eyes again.
It looks like it's asleep.
However, every half hour, he would open his eyes and look towards the doorway.
His eyes were dark and clear; he hadn't fallen asleep.
And so it went, time after time.
Before we knew it, dawn had broken.
A ray of light appeared in the sky.
A hand with distinct knuckles covered the area beside it.
It had a cool feel to it.
It seemed to be saying that the person who was supposed to sleep with him had left overnight.
In his dark eyes, a certain expression gradually began to dim.
Without saying a word, he sat up.
Like any other day, he got up, changed his clothes, went to the morning court, and ate breakfast.
The young eunuch who was serving nearby saw that Miss Su Yan had not come out and assumed that she was asleep and had not yet gotten up.
I was going to ask the prince, but when I saw that the prince's expression didn't seem very good.
The words "Miss Su Yan" that were on the tip of his tongue were swallowed back down.
They served him carefully, without saying another word.
Even after the meal was finished, only one-tenth of the food on the table had been touched.
The prince didn't even touch the roast chicken or roast duck.
Yuwen Xu stared at the food for a long time before finally looking away.
"Go to the study."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Days passed by.
The young eunuch never saw Miss Su Yan again.
The prince also became increasingly silent.
The entire palace seemed to have been instantly drained of its life force, falling silent.
Even on the fourth day, after dinner, there was still a lot of food left over.
Yuwen Xu put down his chopsticks and spoke calmly.
"In the future, there's no need to prepare so much."
The young eunuch quickly nodded in agreement.
"Yes, Your Highness!"
After agreeing, the young eunuch hesitated and spoke cautiously.
"And what about Miss Su Yan's meals...?"
Yuwen Xu glanced at the little eunuch.
Dark and deep eyes
"She's not coming back."
Without realizing it, his voice became hoarse.
The little eunuch quickly knelt down.
"You servant deserves to die!!"
Yuwen Xu looked away, and after a long while, he spoke.
"Push me to sit under the mimosa tree for a while."
"Yes, Your Highness!"
The wooden wheelchair creaked as it touched the ground.
He sat under the mimosa tree, watching the mimosa blossoms drift down from it.
His memory was hazy, but he seemed to recall the scene from a few days ago when Su Yan was in his arms eating mimosa flowers.
The mimosa flower drifted down slowly and landed in his palm.
The image of that little foodie, so cheerful and lively in front of him, still occasionally flashes before his eyes.
There was a time when he could accompany her on her joyful adventures.
But now... in the end, it's still not possible.
As she was thinking, she placed her hand on her right leg.
His gaze fell down to his right leg.
From my calves all the way to my heels, I felt absolutely nothing.
Seven years ago, he was a young genius, famous throughout the Great Liang Kingdom, in his prime.
He entered the battlefield at the age of fifteen, became a commander-in-chief at the age of seventeen, and commanded 100,000 soldiers at the age of nineteen to reclaim thirteen states on the southwestern border. Due to his outstanding military achievements, he was granted the title of a prince of a different surname and joined the royal family.
