On the morning of November 14, the eighth year of the Xuanli reign, fog shrouded Nanjing.
Outside the south gate of Shangjing City, five carriages were parked in a row on the side of the road, but there were only three people standing next to the carriages.
Fu Xiaoguan, Dong Shulan, and Yu Wenyun.
Of course, Su Mo and the others did not get off the car. The family of three was saying goodbye, so there was no need for them to annoy them.
Dong Shulan's beautiful eyes were slightly red, perhaps because she didn't sleep well the night before, or perhaps because she was trying hard to hold back tears. She stuffed a bundle into Fu Xiaoguan's hands and whispered, "I haven't seen you wear the clothes I made for you last time. I think they're too small. I made you a thicker one this time. Winter is coming, and there's no one to take care of you in Xishan. You have to be more careful. You haven't been taking good care of yourself to begin with, so don't let yourself get sick."
As she spoke, Dong Shulan reached out to straighten Fu Xiaoguan's collar, acting so naturally, like a couple who had been together for many years.
Fu Xiaoguan held Dong Shulan's hand and said, "Don't worry, I can take care of myself. Look at your hands, they're so cold. You should also remember to put on more clothes."
"Yes." Dong Shulan lowered her head. "You must remember to come to the capital early. Although I know that if love lasts forever, it doesn't matter if you're together day and night... but it would be better if we could never be apart again."
Fu Xiaoguan raised his head and sighed softly. He didn't want to leave, but he had to. It wasn't because of the mess in the capital, but because he had to go to Xishan.
Dong Shulan looked up at him and smiled faintly, "Please don't make things difficult for yourself. I know you are someone who can accomplish great things. We won't hold you back. Talk to Wenyun too. She's feeling... miserable too."
Dong Shulan walked to the side, with her back to Fu Xiaoguan, and the tears in her eyes finally flowed out.
I knew he would come to Beijing during the Chinese New Year.
You know it’s only been a short period of forty days, so why are you crying?
Where did that strong Dong Shulan go?
It turns out that when there is a shoulder to lean on, the strength you once had becomes so vulnerable.
Yu Wenjun reached out and touched Fu Xiaoguan's face. This was the first time the two of them had such intimate contact. Her thumb gently stroked his long eyebrows, on which were many dewdrops.
A blush crept onto her face, and she felt her heartbeat quicken. She loved this feeling, but it also felt like something was missing. Oh, right, if he… Fu Xiaoguan's hand also touched Yu Wenyun's delicate face, cool and soft. It was so close that he almost couldn't control himself and pulled her into his arms.
Yu Wenyun's heartbeat became faster and faster. Yes, this feeling was right now.
"I...will always wait for you." After saying this, Yu Wenyun lowered her head. She was very shy. This was the first time she had said this so clearly to a man. She was afraid, but also very happy. She thought this was a lifelong thing.
"Well," Fu Xiaoguan raised his blushing face, looked into those charming eyes, and said seriously, "I will marry you in the most grand way in the world."
Yu Wenjun stopped talking. She didn't know what to say. She was very nervous and there was a hint of anticipation in her eyes.
Fu Xiaoguan took a deep breath, looked at the rosy red lips, smiled evilly, held Yu Wenyun's chin with one hand, and moved closer.
Yu Wenjun's eyes widened, the face so close to her became blurry, and then... it was so beautiful! Her mind went blank in an instant, and time seemed to stop at this moment.
Fu Xiaoguan stood up straight and laughed when he saw Yu Wenjun's embarrassed look.
He took Yu Wenjun's hand and walked towards Dong Shulan, and hugged Dong Shulan in his arms. Dong Shulan blushed, and her heart was filled with fear and sweetness.
"I have put a seal on your mouths. You are my people."
Yu Wenjun suddenly grabbed Fu Xiaoguan and stuck them together again, then let go, breathing slightly.
"Shulan, we also need to stamp it."
After all, Dong Shulan was not as brave as Yu Wenjun. She looked around secretly and thought that the fog was really good. It would be even better if it was thicker.
She also hugged Fu Xiaoguan's neck, stood on tiptoe, and covered him like this, but it was more passionate than Yu Wenjun just now, just like the rainy night in Qinhuai.
"Okay, now you belong to the two of us, so don't mess around with other girls outside!" Yu Wenjun glared at Fu Xiaoguan, then laughed.
"I promise!"
"Go ahead, just remember we'll be waiting for you in Shangjing." Dong Shulan said in a low voice.
"Well, you guys go back too. The dew is too heavy. Don't catch a cold."
Fu Xiaoguan walked towards the carriage, turned around and waved, then got on the carriage. The three carriages slowly drove into the morning mist, and their shadows gradually disappeared.
"Shulan, why do I feel so empty inside?"
"Because... there is a him in your heart."
"Is this love?"
Dong Shulan nodded and murmured, "Yes, this is love."
Clusters of wild chrysanthemums bloomed on the roadside, swaying in the morning breeze in Dong Shulan's tearful eyes, so beautiful and strong.
…
Fu Xiaoguan sat in the carriage with his thoughts racing.
He felt that he was lucky. He had never been in love in his previous life, but in this life he was given two at once, and both were such beautiful and gentle women.
This is certainly worth his cherishing and protecting, so the trip to Xishan becomes more urgent.
The many forces in Shangjing are intertwined and one move can affect the whole body. If you don't have absolute power in your hands, you may be torn to pieces by a hurricane at any time.
As a man who has lived two lives, Fu Xiaoguan would never put his life in the hands of anyone, not even the emperor!
He looked at the blurry scenery outside the window in the fog, savoring the taste of the fiery red lips, and the expression on his face became more determined.
Su Mo was riding in the same car with him. He watched the various changes on Fu Xiaoguan's face and understood that this guy must have a lot of thoughts in his mind.
He admired Fu Xiaoguan from the bottom of his heart. Although he was so young, he was determined and had extraordinary plans. The plans he made were beyond the reach of ordinary people, but he didn't know what exactly he was trying to achieve.
On the fifth day of November, Fu Xiaoguan left the Fifth Prince's residence, saying that the villa in Xuanwu Lake had been renovated and he would no longer bother him. But in fact, it was Bai Yulian who came to the capital.
On the day Fu Xiaoguan was kidnapped, when Su Mo rescued Fu Xiaoguan and brought him back to the inn, Fu Xiaoguan told him a name. That night, he went to Yanzhi Tower and kidnapped the woman named Lin Hong back to Fu Mansion without anyone noticing.
Bai Yulian did not come to the capital alone. There were five hundred death warriors brought back by Bai Yulian outside the city. Lin Hong was taken away by Bai Yulian. At this moment, Bai Yulian and the five hundred death warriors were on a ship heading to Linjiang, waiting to meet them today.
No one knew that there were five hundred assassins belonging to Fu Xiaoguan hidden on that ship. Su Mo was a little looking forward to it. If those people wanted Fu Xiaoguan to have some accidents on the way back... I'm afraid there really would be some accidents.
