Chapter Eighty-Seven Welcome Home

  Zi Ruoye was standing in front of the hall, chatting with Liu Xiang for a few sentences, when she heard from the servant that Liu Qingyou did not see guests, and helplessly smiled.

  Liu Chengxiang smiled and said, "Your Highness, you've been gone for several months, even taking my son with you. How is it that when you return, Yu'er is nowhere to be seen?"

  Zi Ruoye couldn't say the real reason why Liu Qingyou was angry, "I suppose I said something wrong, so Qingyou got angry."

  Adhering to the great principle that a clean official cannot judge family matters, Liu Chengxiang still sipped his tea alone, knowing that Liu Qingyu's father had come out. Looking at Wang Ye like this, it turned out he was a henpecked husband. Yu'er, Yu'er, I didn't expect you to still be trapped in Wang Ye's emotional web, the children will have their own blessings, and as an elderly person, she should just obediently hold her granddaughter.

  Zi Ruoye stepped forward hastily and asked, "Does Qingyu refuse to see me?"

  "This... Your Highness, Qingyu will eventually come around, I hope you won't take it to heart." King Yunshui, Qingyu's father, immediately tried to placate the king. In his heart, although Ziyue Ye had been leaving messages for Zeng lately, he still felt that she would easily abandon her husband.

  "This king doesn't mind, so this king will go take a look at Qingyu." He said, slightly nodding his head towards Liu Chengxiang, and walked towards Liu Qingyu's small courtyard.

  Xiao Pu Tao stood outside the door, wondering what Zi Ruo Ye had said to make Gongzi so angry. Just as she was lost in thought, she felt a presence in front of her and looked up to see someone standing there, giving her a fright. She was about to cry out "Wang Ye" when Zi Ruo Ye made a silencing gesture, and she quickly covered her own mouth.

  Zi Ruoye's eyes were filled with a smile, and Xiao Putao, who hadn't been seen for so long, was still as mischievous as ever, whispering something in his ear. After Xiao Putao nodded in understanding, Zi Ruoye stood quietly in front of Liu Qingyou's door, staring at the closed door.

  Liu Qingyou sat in her own room, just hearing that the dead bastard was already outside the door. She didn't know if her mother had made things difficult for her. After all, her mother was the Grand Minister, and she didn't know if she would attribute her unauthorized departure from home to the dead bastard. Just now, Xiao Putao said that the dead bastard's trip to Ning City was still recommended by her mother...

  Liu Qingyou was actually standing not far from the door, and had raised her hand several times to open it and find Zi Ruoye, but she restrained herself. She calmed down and thought about it, how could that scoundrel be unclear with Mu Rongxuan? As soon as she encountered that scoundrel, she became muddle-headed. When it came to things related to her, he couldn't calm down. Only now did she realize that it wasn't like that after all.

  Just as he was lost in thought, he heard Xiao Putao's panicked voice, "Young Master! Young Master! I just heard that the Prince was stabbed and injured outside! Young Master!" Xiao Putao's agitated voice almost snapped the strings of Liu Qingyou's heart.

  What! The dead bastard got stabbed and injured!

  I recalled all the big and small assassinations along the way, Liu Qingyou's face suddenly turned pale, he pushed open the door to go out and find Zi Ruoye, but as soon as he opened the door, he saw Zi Ruoye standing at his door, smiling warmly at him, and looking at the embarrassed little grape on the side. Liu Qingyou's head buzzed loudly, but he still said in a daze, "Damn it, are you okay?"

  This... doesn't look like it wants to get hurt at all? But still can't help but carefully observe this purple leaf.

  Zi Ruoye took a step forward, hooked up her fingers and tapped on Liu Qingyou's forehead, "Now willing to see me?"

  Liu Qingyou was stunned again, looking at Zi Ruoye, only to see that her gentle eyes reflected his own shadow. "You damn...!" His brain finally cleared up, and he realized that he had been deceived by Xiao Putao!

  "Little Grape! How can you help an outsider!" Liu Qingyou turned his head and said somewhat angrily, now...now what should he do?

  Zi Ruoye slightly raised an eyebrow, and the tense look just now had already proved that Liu Qingyou was no longer angry with her. She turned to look at the hanging head of Xiao Putao, "Thank you, little grape." Then she hugged Liu Qingyou and went straight into the house.

  The little grape shrunk its neck, thinking to itself, "Young master, the little grape is also doing this for your own good. How can you let the king like you if you're like a powder keg..."

  "Damn it, what do you want to do! Don't you not want me! Go find Mu Rou Xing instead!" His body struggled in Zi Ruo Ye's arms, and Liu Qing You, who had already calmed down, thought of how Zi Ruo Ye had just deceived him along with Xiao Pu Tao, and his anger flared up again.

  Zi Ruoye stopped in her tracks, her eyes blinking as she stared at Liu Qingyou, but didn't say a word. Liu Qingyou felt uneasy and slightly tilted his head to one side, muttering, "Damn it, what's with the way you're looking at me?"

  "Was it originally because of this that you got angry?" Zi Ruoye knew that Liu Qingyu wasn't angry because of this, but she deliberately misinterpreted his meaning. As expected, the Liu Qingyu in her arms instantly turned red to the roots of her ears, and even stuttered when speaking.

  "It's not because of that!" He was angry, not because the dead bastard didn't touch him, but because the dead bastard kept this matter from him. Wait, what is he thinking...

  The more she thought about it, the more embarrassed she became, and the more she felt that she shouldn't be thinking about it. But sometimes, the more she tried to stop herself from thinking about something, the more uncontrollably her thoughts would continue. Liu Qingyou was so flustered by her own thoughts that she ended up meekly snuggling into Zi Ruoye's arms instead.

  "Still thinking?" Zi Ruoye sat down, but still let Liu Qingyou continue to sit on her lap. Every time she hugged them, she couldn't help but marvel at the lightness of their bodies. They were truly light, and although they were taller than her, their weight was something she could easily lift.

  "Who, who's thinking! This young master isn't thinking." Liu Qingyou felt that it seemed to be getting darker and darker, so she simply closed her eyes and didn't say anything. However, she leaned lightly into Zi Ruoye's arms, the faint scent of sandalwood in her bosom always able to calm him down, no matter how angry he was, as long as he was being held by her, his anger seemed to suddenly disappear without a trace.

  "Darling, I didn't say I had no requests. I just wanted to be in the bridal chamber on your big wedding day... actually, it's still possible now." Zi Ruoye said with a smile, and as she spoke, she lightly kissed his slender neck.

  Liu Qingyu hastily and gently pushed open the purple leaf, her face red as she turned away, "This young master believes you are, you quickly go back to find Yun Ning, he must be the one who misses you the most. This young master will come to find you in a few days." The dead fool would say such things, what else could he say? She was going to torment him to death, he was destined to never have a comeback.

  "Hmm. You'd better have a good chat with the Prime Minister and his wife, otherwise, if you want to see me in the future, you'll have to pay for it and bring gifts." Zi Ruo Ye said with a gentle smile, she was the only one who would ask her mother-in-law for gifts.

  "This young master will bring that jar of wine." He knew this bastard loved to drink, how could he not bring the wine that had been on his mind all along.

  As expected, Zi Ruoye's eyes lit up as soon as she heard about the good wine. "Thank you, Qing Yu. I'll head back to the Wang Manor first."

  Liu Qingyu nodded slightly and urged Zi Ruoye to hurry back to the palace, so Zi Ruoye flew directly to her own palace using her lightness skill. Now that the sun was high in the sky, it was just past noon, and Cong'er should be in the main hall, right? Thinking of this, she went straight to the main hall, but when she arrived at the main hall, she didn't see Yun Cong, instead, the palace servants were startled by Zi Ruoye's sudden appearance.

  "Your Highness?"

  "Your Highness!?"

  One by one, it seemed like waves rising and falling. Wu Er had just walked past when she heard the soft calls of the people below and furrowed her brow slightly. She walked over and said softly, "Master Yun, you've just rested, please don't be too loud." As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Zi Ruoye's figure flash before her eyes.

  "Prince Wang?" He himself couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, completely forgetting what he had just said.

  Zi Ruoye felt a bit helpless, she didn't enter from the main gate which was indeed her fault, but did they have to be this shocked? Although it had been several months since she last returned. "Little Wu, where is your master now?"

  Just heard Wu Er say that Yun Ning has just rested? She remembers that Yun Ning doesn't have the habit of taking a nap, does she? Isn't her body uncomfortable?

  Upon hearing Zi Ruoye's voice, Wu Er finally came back to her senses. "Your Highness! You're back!" Her voice was filled with excitement. The prince had finally returned, and now Yun Zhuzi wouldn't be so lovesick that she couldn't eat or sleep.

  "Hmm. The king has returned, is Yun Qing inside?" Zi Ruo Ye nodded lightly, she was now eager to see the person she had not seen for almost eight months.

  "Yes. Lately, Yun Zhuzi hasn't been resting well, so... hmm? Where's the prince?" Wu Er blinked his eyes, he still wanted to report to the prince about Yun Zhuzi's situation over the past few months, but just as he started speaking, the person was gone."

  Zi Ruoye had already sensed something was off when Wu'er said the first word "yes", and immediately activated her lightness skill to head directly to Yun Cong's small courtyard.

  These few months, Yun Cong had not rested well, so over time he developed the habit of taking a short nap at noon, because he would always stand in front of the window all night, and after learning that Zi Ruoye was trapped in the coal mine, rest became even more difficult. He lost weight, his entire body thinner by a circle, Zi Ruoye gently fell onto Yun Cong's sleeping face, looking at Yun Cong's thin lower jaw which had become pointed, it pained her heart.

  Soft breathing, in the raven-black hair, there was only that one unique hairpin, the red jade purple pearl hairpin. A few strands of mischievous hair lay flat against his face, and a thin quilt covered his body. Even lying on the bed, he propped up his head with his hand, probably just planning to take a short nap.

  At the moment when Ziyueye lifted her foot, Yun Cong opened his eyes.

  Yun Ning had just fallen asleep, thinking of taking a short rest, when he heard footsteps. His heart skipped a beat - who was it? As soon as his eyes opened, they were filled with murderous intent! But when he saw the person standing in front of him clearly, he simply stared blankly instead.

  Is it... Your Highness?

  Why does the person in front of me look like Wang Ye?

  Is he still asleep, and is he still in a dream?

  Yun Ning looked at the increasingly close Zi Ruoye, somewhat uncertain. He had indeed received news that Wang Ye had arrived in the capital, but thinking that Wang Ye should have gone to the imperial palace to find Zi Yan first, so even if he was eager to see her, he still continued to stay inside the Wang Fu...

  Knowing he was being held by Ziyue Ye, his body stiffened, and the familiar scent that couldn't be more familiar wafted into his nostrils. Yun Cong only then gently moved his body, turned around and hugged Ziyue Ye back. He heard Wangye whispering softly in his ear, "Cong'er, you've worked hard these past few months."

  In an instant... his heart, which had been suspended in mid-air, finally gently fell back down. He murmured, "Your Highness, welcome home." Even though he had stayed here for so many months, only the prince's arms could be called his home, his one and only home.
