Chapter 621, Letter
After Xiao Yeyang left the Guo residence, he went straight back to the Jinling Guard office. Yan Wenkai happened to be off on duty, and seeing him return with a sullen face, he couldn't help but pull Defu aside and ask, "Who provoked him?"
Defu shrugged. His master could be dissatisfied with Miss Guo, but as a servant, he couldn't say anything bad about her behind her back. However, seeing that everyone in the office was looking at him, he thought for a moment and reminded everyone, "Anyway, if there is nothing particularly important at this time, please don't disturb the master."
Ever since they followed their master to the northern border, where their master led the Jinling Guards from Zhongzhou to successfully capture the Tatar prince and escape unscathed, these people have been sincerely submissive and respectful to their master, and dare not easily offend him.
"Okay, everyone, please leave and go back to your work."
Looking at the Jinling Guards who retreated obediently, Defu sighed. It was true that no matter what time, people still had to have strong strength, especially in places like the military camp or the Jinling Guards where fists were needed to speak.
The master's status is quite noble, but when he first took over the Jinling Guard in Zhongzhou, these people didn't expect to be so obedient as they are now. Most of them were hypocritical.
At noon, Xiao Yeyang was just about to eat when he saw Delu walking in quickly with a letter.
De Lu quickly glanced at Xiao Yeyang's unhappy expression, and then he handed over the letter with gritted teeth: "Master, there's a letter from the prince."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yeyang and Defu could not hide their surprise.
There was no other reason. Xiao Yeyang had been in Zhongzhou for so many years. Although the palace would send gifts every year, Prince Ping had never written a letter to Xiao Yeyang. Of course, Xiao Yeyang had never written to Prince Ping either.
Defu looked at Xiao Yeyang, trotted over to take the letter from Delu's hand, and then quickly placed it in front of Xiao Yeyang.
Xiao Yeyang put down his chopsticks and looked at the letter on the table silently. After a long time, he reached out and picked up the letter and opened it to read.
Defu and Delu stood aside, not daring to make a sound.
Both of them knew that the relationship between the master and the prince was very bad, and every time something related to the palace happened, the master would not be in a good mood.
The prince suddenly wrote to me, and I don’t know why?
"Shh~"
Xiao Yeyang looked at the letter in his hand with a sneer on his face, anger burning more and more in his eyes. He stretched out his arm, and the dishes and chopsticks on the table fell to the ground with a "crackling" sound.
Still not satisfied, "Bang bang bang!" Xiao Yeyang hammered the table three times, only enough to collapse it, and only then did he vent some of his anger.
His good father, who had been away from Beijing for many years, wrote to him in the first letter, asking him to go back to attend Xiao Yechen's wedding. How shameless!
He couldn't understand it. Just because he almost died because of Xiao Yechen when he was a child, and later because of Ma's mother and son, why did he think he would reconcile with Xiao Yechen? And why did he travel thousands of miles to attend his wedding?
He really wanted to fly to him right away and ask him loudly if his brain was broken when he wrote this!!!
Looking at the furious Xiao Yeyang, Defu and Delu could not help but step back fearfully.
Xiao Yeyang took a deep breath for a while before slowly calming down the anger in his heart: "Clean it up."
Upon hearing this, Defu and Delu immediately started cleaning up, their movements very skillful.
Xiao Yeyang stood up and stood in front of the window, looking into the distance towards the capital. After his anger, his eyes were full of disappointment.
His father really never took him seriously!
When Ma was promoted to the position of wife, not only did he get a word in advice, but Xiao Yechen actually wrote a letter to order him to go back after he got married.
When he did all this, did he ever consider his feelings at all?
Looking at the letter in his hand, Xiao Yeyang sneered and tore the letter to pieces with a "swish".
Unfortunately, he's already grown up. Want to order him around? Humph! That depends on whether he's willing or not!
Xiao Yeyang let out a breath, feeling extremely upset, and walked out of the house.
Defu and Delu hurried to follow.
Seeing Xiao Yeyang going out in the scorching sun, Yan Wenkai couldn't help but ask, "Where are you going?"
Xiao Yeyang didn't reply and walked straight out of the yard.
Seeing that Defu kept winking at him, Yan Wenkai wisely stopped asking any more questions.
After leaving the office, Xiao Yeyang rode out of the city on horseback. He galloped outside the city for more than an hour. Only when the depression in his heart had almost dissipated did he return to the city, sweating profusely.
After entering the city, Xiao Yeyang did not return to his mansion immediately, but walked aimlessly on the street leading his horse.
The sun was still strong at this moment and there were not many people on the street. Xiao Yeyang looked at the empty streets and the feeling of loneliness in his heart became stronger.
As I walked, I unknowingly arrived at the street where Yan's mansion was located.
Looking at the gate of Yan's mansion and thinking of the rice flowers in the backyard of Yan's mansion, Xiao Yeyang couldn't help but raise his lips. I wonder what this guy is doing? It's so late, he shouldn't be taking a lunch break, right?
Xiao Yeyang stood outside the Yan Mansion for a while, then turned around and left with his horse, looking somewhat disappointed.
He had no suitable reason to visit, and even if he entered Yan's house, he might not be able to see Daohua.
Looking at their master who looked so lost, Defu and Delu felt helpless.
The master is concerned about Miss Yan, but if he cannot ask the elders in his family to come and propose marriage, he will not be able to enter and leave the Yan family to see Miss Yan openly.
An elder who may make the decision for his master
Alas, the prince can no longer be relied upon.
As the former princess, even if she wanted to, she probably didn't have the power. The royal family would not allow her, who was divorced, to interfere in her master's marriage.
Now, I can only rely on the emperor.
But the emperor's mind is unpredictable. The first thing the emperor considers is the balance of interests. Will the master be satisfied in the end?
Xiao Yeyang was walking on the street with a melancholy look on his face. Suddenly, someone patted him on the shoulder. Turning around, he saw the rice flower with its veil slightly lifted, revealing half of its face.
"Xiao Yeyang, it's really you!"
The cheerful and surprised voice was like a cup of cold tea in the dog days of summer, which immediately washed away the irritability and frustration in Xiao Yeyang's heart.
Looking at Daohuaruhua's smiling face, Xiao Yeyang's eyes were instantly filled with smile.
"Why are you here?"
"Why are you here?"
They both spoke at the same time.
Daohua looked at Xiao Yeyang and saw that he was sweating profusely and his clothes on his back seemed to be soaked with sweat. She frowned slightly and said, "Why are you wandering around in the scorching sun? Aren't you afraid of getting heatstroke?" As she said that, she handed him the handkerchief in her hand.
"You are very particular about your appearance, but you dare to go out on the street with this face? Go and clean it up."
Xiao Yeyang took the handkerchief, took Daohua's hand and walked to the shade nearby, then wiped the sweat off his face with the handkerchief.
Daohua looked at his expression carefully, not ignoring the melancholy between his brows. Just as she was about to ask him what was wrong, she heard a gurgling sound.
Daohua looked in the direction of the voice and immediately saw Xiao Yeyang holding his stomach uncomfortably. He asked in surprise and dissatisfaction, "You haven't had lunch yet?"
Xiao Yeyang looked at the rice flowers and nodded pitifully.
Daohua was silent for a moment and put down the veil: "Let's go. There is a delicious wonton restaurant nearby. I'll take you there to fill your stomach." As she said that, she walked ahead.
Xiao Yeyang immediately threw the reins to Defu and quickly followed.
