Shen Lansui paused and turned to look at her, "Why did the princess come here so early?"
Rong Zhao was stunned: "Do you want to look at the sun in the sky before you speak?"
Shen Lansui was stunned for a moment, then looked up, well, the sun was just setting, so it was obviously noon.
She was embarrassed for a moment, then wiped Lu Xingyue's sweat as usual, and then turned around to salute.
Rong Zhao didn't care about the nonsense. He waved his hand and said, "Why are you two getting closer and closer? It seems that I can't just come to your place casually in the future."
Shen Lansui laughed, "What are you afraid of?"
"Of course I'm afraid that I'll see something I shouldn't see." Rong Zhao glanced at her narrowly, then glanced at Lu Xingyue.
Lu Xingyue nodded and said, "I'm going to change my clothes."
He turned around and entered the bedroom. Rong Zhao then approached Shen Lansui, raised his hand and tapped her neck, sighing: "Are the mosquitoes so powerful this winter?"
Shen Lansui: "..."
Seeing her face turn red, Rong Zhao covered his lips and laughed.
Shen Lansui was helpless: "The princess came here at noon to make me happy?"
"Of course not."
Rong Zhao suppressed his smile and said, "You two are really enviable."
Shen Lansui said nothing.
She knew about Rong Zhao and Liang Ci, but she couldn't say anything to comfort them. Naturally, it was not easy to pick up the fight at this time.
Fortunately, Rong Zhao just sighed casually, and then said seriously: "I came here to tell you that we can leave back to Yangdu in a few days."
"So fast?" Shen Lansui was surprised.
Rong Zhao nodded and shook his head, "It's not too fast. The houses are almost built, and the people's diseases are almost cured. Everything is on track. The surrounding villages have been settled properly. The imperial court has sent people to take over Wanguan City." The officials are already on the way, and when they arrive, we won’t need to take care of the rest of the trivial matters.”
That's what she thought, but after staying here for so long and suddenly saying she wanted to go back, she still felt a little like she was in a dream.
However, once you have this awareness, time passes faster and faster.
Five days later, the officials sent by the imperial court to fill the vacancies in Wanguan City arrived. The seventh prince handed over the affairs at hand with them and prepared to take people back to the capital.
Shen Lansui and Lu Xingyue didn't bring anything with them when they came. When they left, a roll of luggage was enough.
Before leaving, Lu Xingyue went out and brought back a child.
When the boy saw Shen Lansui, he immediately bowed respectfully and said, "Miracle doctor."
Shen Lansui immediately remembered, "Are you the child from before?"
The boy nodded and looked at her gratefully.
Lu Xingyue said: "This child has excellent bones. I want to take him back to Jinyiwei."
Shen Lansui had no objection and asked, "Did his family agree?"
"I agreed. My brother said that this is fate. He asked me to make a name for myself and then go back to see him."
The boy's eyes were bright, full of yearning for Jin Yiwei.
Shen Lan smiled and asked, "What's your name?"
The boy said: "Zhou Yang."
Lu Xingyue said: "His brother took over the family business and didn't have much time to take care of him. He was also afraid that he would become a bad student without anyone to look after him, so he entrusted him to me."
"Well, let's take him with us."
Shen Lansui also liked this child very much.
Zhou Yang smiled immediately, "Thank you, the miracle doctor!"
Shen Lansui and Lu Xingyue got on the carriage, while Zhou Yang, Liu Yan and the others sat in the back one.
With a flick of the riding whip, the carriage began to move slowly.
They met at the city gate and were about to leave when someone suddenly shouted from behind.
The voice was loud and clear, and everyone in the carriage could hear it clearly.
Shen Lansui opened the car curtain and looked back, only to see people all over the city coming out to see her off. There were people everywhere on the street.
They knelt down in the direction of the carriage and shouted with red eyes: "The great kindness of the nobles will be engraved in the hearts of the common people, and they will never forget it, and we will repay it in the next life!"
"I would like to send you out of the city! I wish you a safe journey!"
"Noble man, walk slowly!"
"Your Majesty, please come back and take a look when you have time!"
"Congratulations, noble man!"
The common people shouted louder than the others, faintly crying, beating Shen Lansui's heart like a wave.
She didn't dare to look anymore and quickly lowered the curtains.
Lu Xingyue held her hand tightly and whispered, "Can't bear to part with you?"
Shen Lansui nodded, "We have feelings for each other after we have been together for a long time, but suddenly I have to leave, and I always feel like there is an empty space in my heart."
"Want to cry?" Lu Xingyue raised his hand to let her lean on his shoulder, "Cry if you want."
Shen Lansui laughed, feeling really sad, and her eyes turned red soon after.
They all knew that no matter how reluctant they were, they had to leave. There were people waiting for them in Yangdu, and they couldn't stay here forever.
The Seventh Prince and Rong Zhao comforted the people, and after everyone's emotions stabilized, they gave the order for the team to continue walking.
The people did not try to persuade him to stay, but spontaneously followed the carriage to the outside of the city. They did not turn back until they could no longer see the figure.
The newly appointed prefect looked at this scene and said to the people around him: "Did you see it? This is what the people want."
"After this time, the seventh prince's status in the court will no longer be shaken."
The magistrate stroked his beard and said with a smile: "There is no way. He has taken advantage of the right time, place, and people. It's time for him to take the lead. The balance of the court will soon be broken."

When they left, Yangdu was still completely white, but when they came back, the snow had almost melted.
They hurriedly and slowly arrived at Yangdu before the Lantern Festival.
Outside the city gate, the officials headed by Ruan Shoufu were waiting solemnly and personally greeted him in a grand manner.
However, Shen Lansui didn't see all this. She fell asleep long before entering the city, and she didn't need to step forward to deal with these people. There was the Seventh Prince and Princess Rong Zhao, so Lu Xingyue didn't call her.
Emperor Hui'an sympathized with their hard work and fatigue, and ordered them to go back to bathe, change clothes, and rest before entering the palace.
So the Seventh Prince and Lu Xingyue separated after entering the city.
Shen Lansui didn't even wake up when the carriage arrived at the Marquis Mansion, so Lu Xingyue simply hugged him out.
Guan Chun and Shang Xia, who came out to greet her after receiving the news, were startled. Guan Chun hurriedly asked: "What's wrong, madam? Are you injured?"
Lu Xingyue shook his head, "Shh."
Guan Chun was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that he had fallen asleep.
She quickly shut her mouth, but Shen Lansui still woke up.
She opened her eyes drowsily, "Where are you?"
Lu Xingyue said warmly: "We're home. It's okay. Just go back to sleep."
"Got home……"
After hearing this, Shen Lansui closed her eyes with peace of mind, "Okay."
A faint smile appeared on Lu Xingyue's lips, and he said to Zhou Quan: "Have someone clean up a guest room for Zhou Yang to stay in, and then you can tell him the rules of the house."
He looked Zhou Quan up and down, "Are your injuries healed?"
Zhou Quan was excited, but did not dare to speak loudly. He lowered his voice and said, "My subordinate has been well for a long time. I am looking forward to the return of the master and his wife."
When Dilong turned over, he was the lucky one and was not seriously injured. Later, when Lu Xingyue asked him to escort the prisoner, he came back first.
After Lu Xingyue sent Shen Lansui back to the bedroom to get settled, he gave Zhou Quan a look, and the two of them went to the study.
Lu Xingyue asked straight to the point: "Have all the prisoners in Wanguan City been sent back? How did Your Majesty react?" (End of Chapter)
