Meng Haowen came to the outside of Luo Jinyu's room and stopped. He held his hand on the door panel and hesitated.
He saw a faint light in the room through the crack in the door, and wondered if there was anyone inside.
He raised his hand to knock on the door, but when he was about to touch the door panel, he stopped again.
A complex emotion surged in his heart, which was fear of the unknown and worry about the embarrassment he might face.
A trace of doubt flashed in Meng Haowen's mind. He didn't know if the general's wife was in the room. If she was inside, his sudden intrusion might be inappropriate.
However, he had to tell Luo Jinyu about that matter earlier. After thinking about it, Meng Haowen knocked lightly on the door with his fingers a few times. His heartbeat suddenly accelerated, like a drum head being tightened, and the drumbeat was beating against him. beating in his chest.
He waited for a response, but there was no movement in the room.
After a while, just when he was thinking about turning around and leaving, he saw the door being opened.
"Meng Haowen? Why are you here? Is there something wrong?"
Shu Zhihan stood at the door and looked at him in surprise. She seemed to understand something again and immediately asked, "You want to find Luo Jinyu, right?"
"Yes, ma'am, may I ask, is the general inside?"
Shu Zhihan shook her head gently, "No, he hasn't been here."
There was a hint of imperceptible hoarseness in her voice, like the silence after the end of prosperity, and like fallen leaves drifting in the cold wind. With a touch of helplessness and sadness, her tone was slow and flowing, like a voice in the cold winter. The long wind is desolate and sad, as if telling an unknown secret.
When she spoke, the sorrow and sadness flowed in her tone, like a chestnut whose skin had been peeled off by the years. Although there was a soft heart hidden deep inside, it also carried deep pain.
Each of her words is like a lake blown by the wind, creating ripples in circles. Those ripples are her story, her mood, her sadness, and her expectations.
There was a deep loneliness in her tone, like a lone star on a cold winter night, shining alone but with no one to appreciate it. The loneliness is deep in the bone marrow and cannot be ignored, while the sadness is like the rain in autumn, pattering endlessly, with an indescribable pain.
Shu Zhihan's words were just like herself. She looked calm on the outside, but inside she was filled with endless sorrow and sadness.
She looked at Meng Haowen and had an impulse to ask him about Luo Jinyu and Princess Wenjing. However, she was still overcome by reason and said nothing.
"Madam, then I will go find the general elsewhere and take my leave."
Meng Haowen said and turned around and left.
Shu Zhihan looked at his leaving figure, feeling even more hollow in her heart.
Even he wanted to come here to find Luo Jinyu, so where did Luo Jinyu go?
Could it be that he really went to Princess Wenjing?
When Shu Zhihan thought of such a possibility, she felt as if another piece of her heart had been cut out.
Meng Haowen saw a trace of emotion in her eyes. Her eyes revealed a deep sadness, like a heavy stone in her heart, always weighing on her heart.
That calm and deep look in his eyes was like the surface of a lake in the middle of the night, reflecting endless sadness.
Meng Haowen was immersed in thinking, constantly searching for the possible location of Luo Jinyu.
He held his chin with his hand and stared ahead, which was the direction leading to the study.
The air around him seemed to become heavier as he thought, and every inch of space was filled with his thoughts.
Meng Haowen came to the study and saw light inside, so he quickly knocked on the door. Hearing the sound inside, he pushed the door open and saw Luo Jinyu inside. ap.
"Did you find anything?"
"General, as you expected, someone did go to see the governor just now."
Luo Jinyu signaled him to leave the study room
The door closed, and then he said, "Who is it?"
"It was Luhe, but I was on the roof and didn't hear what they said inside. She came out within about a moment of burning incense. After that, the governor never came out of the house again."
Luo Jinyu thought for a while and then said, "Where's Lu He? Go and find out what's going on?"
"Yes, General, I will go find her tomorrow to see what the situation is and if I can find out anything.
By the way, General, there is something that I don’t know whether I should say. "
Luo Jinyu looked at his hesitant look and couldn't help but feel a little strange. This was not at all like the Meng Haowen he knew.
"If you have any questions, just say it. This attitude doesn't suit you."
Meng Haowen sighed softly and then said: "General, should you go and see Madam? When I went there to find you just now, I felt that Madam was in a bad mood, as if she was a little sad."
"What's going on? What happened?"
When Luo Jinyu heard that Shu Zhihan was unhappy, he couldn't help but feel a little curious and confused about what was going on.
"I don't know the specific subordinate, but the look on Madam's face is not very good."
"okay, I get it."
After hearing the news that Shu Zhihan was in a bad mood, Luo Jinyu felt a strong sense of urgency.
His mood became anxious and he could no longer sit in the study. He needed to find her immediately.
His steps moved forward without hesitation, crossing the threshold of the study eagerly. His heartbeat was like beating a drum, seeming to urge him to go faster, faster. His nerves were tense, like a rope about to break. Every vibration of the strings made him feel extremely anxious. He wanted to see her, wanted to confirm her condition, and wanted to know if she was okay.
Luo Jinyu's steps were as fast as a chased deer, and his breathing became heavy.
He came to the door of the room and without any hesitation, he opened the door and went in.
When Shu Zhihan heard the noise, she couldn't help but startled. She stood up and turned around to look, and felt a little relieved when she realized it was Luo Jinyu.
Luo Jinyu's heart was full of confusion. Shu Zhihan was usually a lively and cheerful girl, and her smile lit up his world like sunshine.
However, she looked so different today, with a deep sadness hidden in her eyes and an unspeakable bitterness in her smile.
He looked at her, trying to find clues in her expression.
Her skin became pale, as if all the life had been drained away. Her eyes, which were once full of vitality, were now like the surface of a deep lake, with inexplicable ripples. Her lips, which she usually liked The lips that were curved into a beautiful arc were tense at the moment, as if they were trying to restrain something.
He listened carefully to every little movement she made, hoping to find a clue in her voice.
However, Shu Zhihan seemed to have lost her previous enthusiasm, and her voice became dull and low.
His heart was full of uneasiness. He didn't know what Shu Zhihan had gone through, and he didn't know why she became like this.
He began to wonder if he had missed some important information and if there was something going on that he didn't know about.
However, Shu Zhihan seemed to be hiding something on purpose. She was unwilling to share her pain.
He looked at her, feeling helpless and confused.
"How did you come?"
Shu Zhihan asked first.
The corner of Luo Jinyu's mouth twitched slightly, and then he said, "Why, I can't come back to my own room?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Shu Zhihan sneer, "Yes, this is your room, of course you can go back if you want."
After saying this, she turned around and sat on the chair.
Looking at her back, it suddenly seemed that she had become a little thinner.
At that moment, Luo Jinyu's heart felt a little
He twitched slightly, as if he hadn't seen her so close for a long time.
He walked up, sat next to her, gently put her hand in his palm, and said slowly: "What's wrong? Did something happen? Tell me something. "
Shu Zhihan just shook her head, "I'm fine. If you have something to do, just go and do it."
The pain mixed in her tone made people feel distressed hearing it.
Luo Jinyu's eyes revealed a deep worry and confusion.
He looked at Shu Zhihan and seemed to be struggling in his heart, not knowing how to speak.
Shu Zhihan sat opposite him, her face slightly pale, and there was a hint of uneasiness in her eyes.
She clasped her hands together and placed them on her knees, as if she was trying to control her emotions. She swallowed, trying to break the silent atmosphere, but her voice sounded shaky.
"I have something..."
Shu Zhihan felt a little conflicted in her heart. For a moment, she wanted to open her mouth and ask him. She wanted to ask him domineeringly what his relationship was with Princess Wenjing and what had happened between them.
However, when the words came to his lips, they were swallowed alive, and some didn't know how to say them.
Seeing that she was hesitant to speak, Luo Jinyu thought about it carefully.
The thing that makes Shu Zhihan so unhappy must be about herself.
But, what happened to make her unhappy recently?
Or does she feel that she hasn't spent enough time with her these past two days?
As soon as this idea came up, Luo Jinyu immediately rejected it for himself, just because he knew that Shu Zhihan would not be so unhappy because of the lack of company.
Luo Jinyu kept searching in his mind to find out what happened to Fansheng.
Suddenly, a picture appeared in his mind.
Luo Jinyu couldn't help but think about the time he saw her and Princess Wenjing standing by the pond. Could it be that something happened there that she didn't know about?
