Jiang Jingyu's eyes moved, but without opening them, she held the object tightly in her hand.
After returning to the bedroom, Jiang Jingyu slowly opened the note.
Wanwan, do everything you can to get His Majesty out of the palace on the Lantern Festival the day after tomorrow.
There is a beautiful woman, I will never forget her when I see her; if I don’t see her for a day, I will miss her like crazy.
Jiang Jingyu: “…”
What are you doing again?
Two days later, it’s the Lantern Festival.
Emperor Yu and Jiang Jingyu changed into casual clothes and quietly left the palace.
Because they were leaving the palace secretly, in order to conceal their tracks, the two did not bring many followers with them. They only brought Cong Ye and Cong Yan and two disguised guards.
The Lantern Festival is not lively until the evening, so Emperor Yu and Jiang Jingyu went directly to the Shangshu Mansion after leaving the palace.
"Master, Madam, the young lady is back!"
The servant's excited voice sounded outside the bedroom door.
Liu, who was helping Jiang Huaian take off his official uniform, and Jiang Huaian, who had just returned from court, were stunned.
"Who are you talking about?"
The two looked at the figure outside the door and asked in unison.
"It's the young lady, Master and Madam, it's the young lady who's back!"
"Wanwan is back?"
Liu was shocked. This time she heard it clearly. She excitedly opened the bedroom door and ran out, leaving Jiang Huaian alone in the wind.
When Liu ran out of the bedroom, Jiang Jingyu had already brought Di Yu to the guest room. After learning her whereabouts from the servant, Liu ran straight to the guest room.
"Wanwan, Wanwan, are you back?"
"Madam, Madam, please slow down."
The maidservant following beside her was afraid that Liu would fall, so she held her arm and kept reminding her.
But Liu was now anxious to see Jiang Jingyu, so she had no time to listen to the maid's words. She took two steps at a time and quickly ran to the outside of the guest room courtyard.
"Wanwan, Wanwan?"
Hearing Liu's voice, Jiang Jingyu stood up and walked quickly towards the door.
The mother and daughter finally met. The moment she saw Jiang Jingyu, Liu's eyes suddenly turned red.
"Wanwan, it's really you, you're really back! You don't know how much I missed you!"
Liu and Jiang Jingyu hugged each other and cried out all the longing they had for each other in the past few days.
"Mom, I miss you too. Okay, stop crying. I'm back, aren't I?"
Jiang Jingyu patted Liu's back and comforted her softly.
Liu held her and kept talking, then realized something was wrong. She let go of Jiang Jingyu and said in shock, "No, Wanwan, weren't you in the palace? Why are you back?"
Thinking of something, Liu hurriedly grabbed Jiang Jingyu's arm and said, "Hurry, Wanwan, go back quickly. I know you miss me, but leaving the palace without His Majesty's permission is a serious crime! I'll have you sent back before anyone notices!"
Jiang Jingyu stopped the emotional Liu and moved aside: "Mom, look who that is."
Liu looked towards the main seat in the guest hall in confusion. After seeing Di Yu, her pupils trembled and she hurriedly pulled Jiang Jingyu to kneel down.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty."
Jiang Huaian, who arrived later, was startled when he saw this. He strode to the door of the living room, lifted up his robe and knelt down.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. I did not know you were coming. I hope you will forgive me if I have been negligent."
Di Yu's eyes were indifferent: "Everyone, get up."
"yes."
Jiang Jingyu helped Liu get up, and the three of them walked towards the living room together.
After seeing Di Yu sitting in the main seat, Jiang Huaian felt a little restrained, neither standing nor sitting.
"Today is the Lantern Festival. I brought Wanwan out to relax. You don't have to be so reserved. Please sit down."
“Yes, yes.”
Jiang Huaian nodded reluctantly, then sat down, leaving the main seat next to Di Yu empty.
After everyone was seated, Jiang Huaian and Liu were still very nervous, and they kept their heads down and said nothing.
The room was filled with tranquility.
Jiang Jingyu glanced at Di Yu who was sitting in the main seat, and her expression seemed to be saying: See, I told you to find a restaurant to wait for me, but you insisted on following me.
Emperor Yu coughed twice and said, "Didn't Wanwan say she wanted to eat home-cooked food? I'm a little hungry too. Let's serve the food."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Huaian hurriedly gave orders, and soon the table was filled with food.
At first, Jiang Huaian and Liu were a little reserved, but after seeing Di Yu picking up food for Jiang Jingyu and peeling shrimps for her with his own hands, the two of them gradually let go of their worries.
Apart from anything else, His Majesty is sincere to them Wanwan.
Seeing their daughter happy, the two old people felt only relief in their hearts.
After the meal, although they didn't say much, Jiang Huaian and Liu were no longer as reserved as before.
Liu took Jiang Jingyu aside and talked to her about some private matters, while Di Yu and Jiang Huaian sat at the chess table and played chess.
That night, the moon's shadows were everywhere, the birch trees were swaying, the night breeze blew gently, and the tall bamboos swayed in the wind.
Jiang Jingyu and Di Yu walked side by side on the street full of lanterns. One of them was wearing a white robe, the other a black robe, with their fingers intertwined, like a perfect match walked out of a painting.
Although very few people have seen Emperor Yu's true face, Jiang Jingyu and others have seen it. In order to hide from others, they both wore masks on their faces.
"Riddles, guess the riddles!"
"Selling lanterns, all kinds of lanterns, guaranteed to satisfy you!"
The cries of various vendors rang out on the street, mixed with the sounds of people talking, making it very lively.
Jiang Jingyu was extremely excited. Although she had memories of the Lantern Festival in her mind, that was not her personal experience. Now that she was in the bustling streets, everything she saw was new to her.
Di Yu also noticed the joy of the little woman next to him, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly. Her emotions affected his heart.
