However, Ji Shuisheng was on guard against him and didn’t give him any chance. He made Su Qing sit in the carriage with Xiaoying and not let her out.
In the end, Yeluchun didn’t have the chance to be alone with Xiaoying. Seeing the carriage go further away, Yeluchun’s eyes were desolate, and he wanted to turn his horse around and go back.
“Big Brother Ye Lui, goodbye.”
Just as Yeluchun turned his horse around, Xiaoying suddenly popped her head out of the carriage and waved her arms at him.
Yeluchun’s lonely face instantly blossomed with a smile, and his eyes were like lit candles. He also waved his arm at Xiaoying. “Xiaoying, you’re welcome to come again next time.”
Ji Shuisheng’s face darkened. They had been guarding the entire way but still hadn’t been able to safeguard?
“Go in.”
Ji Shuisheng ordered Xiaoying in a bad mood. Xiaoying made a face at him and looked at Yeluchun reluctantly before returning to the carriage.
After Xiaoying sat back in the carriage, she kept thinking about the handsome man who waved at her in the heavy snow. She couldn’t help but smile shyly.
Su Qing looked at her reaction and frowned slightly. She felt that she had to remind the inexperienced Xiaoying.
“Xiao Ying, can you accept sharing your husband with another woman?”
Su Qing looked into Xiaoying’s eyes and suddenly asked her. Ji Xiaoying, who was thinking about Yeluchun, froze for a moment. She didn’t understand why Sister Su Qing was asking her this question.
She thought about it seriously. She felt bad thinking about her lover and other women. She shook her head and said, “No, I can’t accept it.”
Su Qing’s face darkened as she asked Xiaoying,
“Do you know how many women the Emperor has? Do you know that Yeluchun’s mother was paralyzed for half her life by a woman in the palace? How many days can you survive in that kind of environment?”
Xiaoying’s face slowly lost color, and her confused eyes showed a hint of pain. She understood Sister Su Qing’s meaning but liked Brother Ye Lui. How good would it have been if he wasn’t a royal family member?
“If you know you can’t do it, cut the Gordian knot.”
Su Qing’s heart ached when she saw Xiaoying sad. She patted Xiaoying’s shoulder and comforted her in a gentle voice.
“Sister Su Qing, why do people have to grow up? I don’t want to grow up.
Xiaoying leaned against Su Qing’s shoulder sadly, her beautiful eyes misty.
From the first time Yeluchun saved her to the second time he saved her at the Azure Mountain Meet, Xiaoying’s heart had sunk. A girl who never knew what worry was, she was tormented by feelings.
Su Qing knew that there was no use in comforting her now. She could only let Xiaoying walk out on her own.
Xiaoying was tired from crying and fell asleep on Su Qing’s shoulder. Su Qing didn’t have the heart to wake her up. Go to sleep. Once you wake up, you’ll be back to your carefree self.
The road was not easy to walk on, and they only arrived at Mo City in the middle of the night. Ji Shuisheng was calling at the city gate, and the soldiers guarding the city heard his voice and hurriedly came to open the door.
“Young Master, you’re back.”
The leader of the city guards, Rong Sheng, was Cheng Yu’s confidant. Knowing Ji Shuisheng’s ident.i.ty, he greeted him respectfully with cupped fists.
“Yes, you guys have worked hard.”
Ji Shuisheng considerately thanked him for his hard work. Rong Sheng cupped his fists again. “It wasn’t hard on this subordinate. It was hard on the young master.”
Ji Shuisheng laughed. It was worth it to be with them.
“Young Master, something happened.”
Seeing that Ji Shuisheng was about to enter the city, Rong Sheng stopped him.
“What happened?”
Ji Shuisheng hesitantly saw that he was looking at Zhong Yong and felt that the matter should be severe, so he hurriedly asked.
“Something happened to Zhong Yong’s mother, and she’s currently at the mortuary.”
Rong Sheng knew about the relationship between Ji Shuisheng and the Li Consort, so he spoke carefully.
“What is it? Mortuary?”
Ji Shuisheng only felt his head buzz. When they left, G.o.dmother was still fine. Why did something happen in just two days?
He jumped off the horse and pulled Rong Sheng. “Tell me in detail.”
“I don’t know the exact situation. You can ask Lord Xing and Commander Cheng.”
Rong Sheng hurriedly explained when he saw Ji Shuisheng’s intense reaction. It was better to let the adults and the young master talk about the details. He was afraid that he would say the wrong thing.
Su Qing and Xiaoying were sitting in the carriage. The wind and snow outside were so loud they did not hear Ji Shuisheng and Rong Sheng’s conversation. They waited for Ji Shuisheng to drive the carriage away. Su Qing lifted the curtain and walked out of the carriage.
“Shuisheng, what happened?”
“Something happened.”
Ji Shuisheng had yet to recover from this huge blow and replied loudly.
Su Qing heard something wrong with his voice, so she jumped out of the carriage and walked towards him. Before Su Qing could reach Ji Shuisheng, Zhong Yong ran over from behind and urged,
“Let’s go! My mother is still waiting for me at home!”
Ji Shuisheng looked at his good brother with mixed feelings. If he told him that his G.o.dmother was dead, would Zhong Yong be able to take it?
Only G.o.dmother and Zhong Yong had relied on each other for more than ten years. How could he bear the sudden loss of his mother?
Ji Shuisheng’s heart ached for his good brother, and he felt like a knife was twisting his heart. His G.o.dmother’s kind smile flashed across his eyes occasionally, and tears blurred his eyes.
How did she end up like this? Ji Shuisheng did not believe such a good person like G.o.dmother would leave them just like that.
In just two short days, they were separated forever? The pain of life and death was unbearable.
Seeing that Ji Shuisheng was standing there without saying a word and was only looking at him, Zhong Yong became anxious. “What is wrong with Big Brother? Why are you staring at me like that?”
“Please drive the carriage to the government office. Us brothers will go to the memorial hall.”
Ji Shuisheng suppressed the sadness in his heart and instructed Rong Sheng.
Su Qing’s heart skipped a beat when she heard Ji Shuisheng say he was going to the mortuary. Something big must have happened.
“Alright.”
Rong Sheng nodded in agreement and looked at Zhong Yong sympathetically. Zhong Yong’s hair stood on end.
“What happened? My big brother said to go to the mortuary. Who died?”
Zhong Yong shouted at Tong Sheng. There was a nervousness in his voice that he did not even notice.
“Zhong Yong, calm down.”
Ji Shuisheng was afraid that something would happen to Zhong Yong if he were too upset, so he hurriedly advised him.
“No, why should 1 calm down?”
Zhong Yong shook off Ji Shuisheng’s hand. How could he calm down? He grabbed Rong Sheng’s collar and shouted,
“Who is it? Who died? Tell me, who died?”
Rong Sheng asked Ji Shuisheng for help with a bitter face, afraid that Zhong Yong would kill him if he said it.
“It’s G.o.dmother!”
Ji Shuisheng went over to pull Zhong Yong away and said sadly to him. Tears fell.
His G.o.dmother had suffered for her entire life. She had just reached a good life and had not enjoyed happiness when she died. Ji Shuisheng only felt like a knife was twisting his heart. Tears could not stop falling, just like when his G.o.dfather died. It was heart-wrenching.
“Mother, Mother?
Zhong Yong asked Ji Shuisheng with a trembling voice. Ji Shuisheng nodded. Zhong Yong cried at the top of his lungs as he ran towards the mortuary. His voice was lonely in the night, making people’s hearts ache.
Su Qing clutched her chest. It hurt like she had never felt before. She felt her eyes swell up, and tears flowed down uncontrollably. G.o.dmother’s gentle smile was in front of her. She didn’t believe such a good person would die like that.
“G.o.dmother, G.o.dmother.”
Xiaoying heard Zhong Yong’s cries and jumped out of the carriage. She cried as she ran towards the mortuary. When Su Qing and Ji Shuisheng arrived at the morgue, they heard Zhong Yong’s wails that sounded like a wolf’s howl..
