The charming legitimate daughter is reborn, addicted to the abstinent prince's pampering

Clear dew condensed on the large leaves.

Gu Wangshu held the leaf carefully, fearing that anything might go wrong on the way back.

However, when she returned to where she was, she was stunned.

The place where He Lianhuan lay was empty, with only a patch of downed weeds proving that he had existed.

The first reaction in Gu Wangshu's mind was that He Lianhuan had woken up.

She looked around and called tentatively: "Your Highness?"

This sound echoed in the lush woods, but there was no reply from He Lianhuan.

"He Lianhuan——" "He Lianhuan——" she called again, with a hint of anxiety and worry.

However, there was still a silent response.

Gu Wangshu shouted several times in succession, but did not receive any reply.

The silence at this moment was like cold frost and snow, falling on Gu Wangshu's heart.

Her heartbeat was like a tightly strung drum, each beat ringing in her ears.

The leaves in the hands slipped from the palms, and all the dew collected with great difficulty was absorbed by the soil.

Gu Wangshu was like a headless fly, searching aimlessly in the dense forest. She kept calling He Lianhuan's name with deep worry, urgency and panic.

The tall trees had lush branches and leaves, stretching upward to cover the sky and the sun, and the weeds half as tall as a man on the ground were disorderly and crazy. All of this brought Gu Wangshu unprecedented loneliness and helplessness.

She shouted hoarsely, her throat was as hoarse as silk, and her lips were cracked and painful.

Countless unknown mosquitoes in the forest bit her scarred skin wantonly, causing unbearable itching.

Gu Wangshu was hungry and thirsty, her body was exhausted, and every step she took was like going to death.

She barely supported her tired body, kept murmuring He Lianhuan's name, and staggered forward.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, the light in front gradually increased. When his body was shrouded in sunlight, Gu Wangshu walked out of the mountain.

Her body was extremely exhausted and could no longer support her heavy body.

His body went limp, his vision turned black, and he fell to the ground.

At the moment of unconsciousness, her blurry vision vaguely saw someone running towards her.

She had no time to see who it was and fell into darkness.

"Xiao Shu——"

The visitor rushed to Gu Wangshu's side. Seeing her miserable condition, he felt heartbroken and held her in his arms.

......

Gu Wangshu was shaken awake.

She tried hard to open her heavy eyelids, and her eyes were on the ceiling of the carriage.

The carriage moved forward slowly on the long ancient road, with occasional small bumps.

Gu Wangshu was in a daze, and it took him a long time to remember everything that had happened.

Her eyes were instantly filled with worry. She struggled to sit up, lifted the curtains, and found that the driver of the carriage was a middle-aged man of about 40 years old, whom she did not recognize.

Gu Wangshu's face immediately flashed with vigilance, he touched his bun with his fingers, pulled out the hairpin and held it in his palm.

"Who are you? Where are you taking me?" The cold question startled the groom.

He turned his head, with a smile on his honest and honest face.

But when he saw Gu Wangshu with disheveled hair, his smile froze.

Gu Wangshu was wearing men's clothing. When his hair was completely tied up, he looked like a young man without growing hair, but when his hair was loose, he looked like a girl.

The groom was not sure whether she was a boy or a girl for a moment, and then he hesitated.

He looked aside for help.

Gu Wangshu followed the coachman's gaze and discovered a man riding a horse parallel to the carriage.

Seeing him, Gu Wangshu's grievances surged into his heart, his nose felt sore and his eyes grew hot.

"Fifth brother."

This fifth brother's voice was filled with endless sadness.

"Fifth brother, I can't find His Highness."

Gu Jingli couldn't bear to see his sister's tearful eyes and hurriedly comforted her.

"Don't cry, Fifth Brother has sent people to search in the mountains."

When Gu Jingli received the news that Jianning City had been breached, he rushed over to provide support.

But he was a step too late, and Jianning City had fallen into the hands of the Nalan Army.

He could only search for the whereabouts of Gu Wangshu and He Lianhuan along the road, but he never expected to run into Gu Wangshu who was walking out of the woods and collapsed on the ground.

When she was unconscious, she kept chanting He Lianhuan's name, and Gu Jingli roughly guessed what was going on.

Hearing what he said, Gu Wangshu still felt uneasy.

"Fifth brother, where are you taking me?"

"Send you back to Yong'an."

Gu Wangshu immediately became anxious: "Fifth brother, I'm not going back, I'm going to find His Highness."

She shouted emotionally to the driver: "Stop, stop quickly."

Gu Jingli frowned and tried to persuade him: "Xiao Shu, you go back first. Fifth brother promises you that he will definitely send someone to find His Highness. You are weak now, and you can't help much if you stay."

Gu Wangshu's eyes were red: "His Highness was seriously injured and in danger while trying to save me. Not only did I fail to take good care of him, I also lost him."

Tears rolled down, and Gu Wangshu had never cried so hard as he did now.

"Your Highness doesn't know where he is, but I am thinking about eternal life. I...how can I be worthy of his life-saving grace?"

Gu Jingli stared at Gu Wangshu's miserable face, and couldn't help but feel a pinch in his heart, and spoke gently again.

Gu Wangshu was not someone who was indifferent. He knew that staying alone would not make much difference, so he finally compromised.

The carriage traveled eastward leisurely. When passing by the prosperous Taiping City, Gu Wangshu felt an indescribable sadness in his heart.

The scene of her and He Lianhuan standing side by side on a tall tower defending against the enemy kept popping up in her mind.

Only a few months later, Taiping City was still as bright as before, but He Lianhuan, who accompanied her in fighting side by side, was no longer by her side.

......

into the night.

Yong'an City, Imperial Palace.

Stars dotted the sky, moonlight filled the stone pavement, and the resplendent roofs shimmered brightly in the night.

The two carriages of the Yun family stopped at the majestic palace gate. Yun Yanfu took the lead to get out of the carriage in front. Looking back, he saw his wife and his beloved daughter getting off the second carriage and landing steadily.

Yun Yanfu whispered to Gu Wanyi (Aunt Gu Wangshu) with concern: "Madam, as my husband will not be dining with you and Mu Sheng, you need to enter the palace with the courtiers first. You mother and daughter must take care of yourselves when you arrive at the palace."

Gu Wanyi gave him a comforting look.

"Don't worry, sir, I have discretion."

With that said, he took Yun Musheng into another palace gate.

Tonight, Lord Helian held a grand reception banquet for Chen Zui, and the Queen also warmly invited ladies from various famous families for this purpose.

Knowing that he could enter the palace today, Yun Musheng got what he wanted and asked Qingdai Haosheng to dress him up.

This was the first time in her life that she was looking forward to meeting someone.

Qing Dai saw it and couldn't help but joked:

"I remember that the last time I attended the winter banquet, the young lady didn't take it seriously. What happened tonight?"

"I guess the young lady must be meeting someone very important, so she dresses up so beautifully, isn't that right! The young lady is the most beautiful even without dressing up."

Yun Musheng glared at her angrily: "It's getting worse and worse. It deserves a beating."

Qingdai smiled and patted her mouth: "The lady said it should be beaten, then it should be beaten."

Yun Musheng lost his temper because of her troubles. He looked at his beautiful self in the bronze mirror, his skin as smooth as gelatin, and nodded with satisfaction.

Ever since I entered the palace, all the people I met along the way were attracted by Yun Musheng's extreme beauty. They couldn't help but take a peek at her. They felt deeply that this girl was so beautiful. They had never seen such a beautiful woman. , her appearance was deeply imprinted in my mind with just one glance.

Yun Musheng took it indifferently and followed her mother, guided by the palace maid, to the banquet prepared by the Queen.

As soon as the two entered, they immediately attracted everyone's attention.
