Taking the initiative to remarry! The crazy prince is obsessed with me

Shen Xiyue thought so too, but even if she was not in a hurry, she had to go back to Hangzhou so late!

She climbed up from the stone bed: "I'm done sleeping, let's go."

Murong Xuan said: "Okay."

It was dusk and the sun was about to set in the valley.

The thin sunlight, coupled with the cool breeze, made Shen Xiyue feel chilly.

Murong Xuan stood at the entrance of the cave, took off his coat, and wrapped the robe around Shen Xiyue. He reached under the robe, held Shen Xiyue's hand tightly, and led her down the lonely and deserted road.

The setting sun stretched the two figures out long, and finally they overlapped in the fields.

The wind lifted the corners of Murong Xuan's clothes and hair, and the corners of his sleeves fluttered into Shen Xiyue's hands, feeling light and soft, like the wings of a butterfly flying by.

Shen Xiyue held one of his hands and held the collar of his robe with the other hand, and asked, "Are you cold?"

He squinted his eyes and smiled faintly in the wind, his voice touching: "My heart is warm, how can it be cold."

Shen Xiyue looked up slightly and found that his back in the setting sun had a sense of stability that she could rely on.

The winter was cold, but the hand holding hers beneath his clothes was as warm as the spring sun.

Gradually, she no longer felt cold.

There was no carriage to pick them up, and it looked like Murong Xuan wasn't going to take her back to the city.

They turned off the main road and onto a small path between field ridges.

Walking across a wooden bridge, I saw a village with smoke rising from the chimneys.

Shen Xiyue asked: "What are you doing here?"

Murong Xuan walked without stopping, his voice full of nostalgia: "The master who taught me wood carving when I was a child lived here."

After entering the village, I heard a few dogs barking, chickens and ducks returning to their roosts, and the owner of the house standing under the eaves shouting.

Murong Xuan knocked on a door.

The person who opened the door was a white-haired old lady.

She seemed to be very familiar with Murong Xuan. When she saw Murong Xuan coming, she wiped her tears excitedly and quickly invited him and Shen Xiyue in.

As soon as Shen Xiyue entered the yard, she saw wooden sculptures of various sizes placed in the yard. It turned out that the old woman's husband was a guard at the Yancheng Palace and was also a carpenter.

The old nanny did not ask about Shen Xiyue's identity. She just watched her and Murong Xuan being so intimate, and nodded in satisfaction, "Good, good, good child!"

Then the old nanny took Murong Xuan to talk to the old carpenter.

Shen Xiyue looked around in the yard, very curious.

The carpenter looked at Shen Xiyue in the yard, his gray beard trembling slightly, and said, "The girl that Your Highness carved before is this girl?"

Murong Xuan humbly sat upright on the bench, looking at the wood carving in the hands of the old carpenter, and said, "Yes."

The old carpenter smiled and said, "Your Highness must take the initiative now. The girl needs to be coaxed."

Murong Xuan turned his head to look towards the courtyard, locked his sight on that figure, and nodded: "Okay."

Since he was born, he and Queen Qin moved out of the palace and lived in Yancheng Palace next to the imperial mausoleum. He has never left the palace.

He was very bored when he was a child and couldn't stay still, so his mother found many things that could calm his temper, such as fishing and wood carving, to help him calm down.

Afterwards, he would often sit there without saying a word for the entire day.

The queen mother was helpless and begged Duke Qin to secretly send Murong Xuan to the Western Frontier.

After all, they were both military generals, and the Duke of Qin and the Marquis of Zhenxi were quite close friends.

Murong Xuan was only thirteen or fourteen years old at that time.

At that time, the Duke of Qin only told the Marquis of Zhenxi to let the boy follow him for a few years to gain experience, to strengthen his muscles and broaden his horizons, instead of just talking about it on paper.

Marquis Zhenxi didn't ask any more questions and kept the person.

Murong Xuan was very happy at first, as he could finally leave the small palace. But within two days he discovered that many people in the army thought that he had gained the favor of the marquis through connections, and were very dissatisfied with him.

Especially when you are out of sight, you can bully him like this.

At that time, Murong Xuan was just a child and was beaten black and blue every day. In front of Lord Shen, they forced Murong Xuan to pretend that they were all good brothers.

When they were training and practicing martial arts, they did not bring Murong Xuan with them.

They also used his delicate body as an excuse to make him stand aside and watch while he was performing the basic skills that Lord Shen had taught him.

Murong Xuan practiced secretly, but that only made the soldiers beat and humiliate him...

It's funny that when he was secretly treating his injuries, he was caught by Shen Xiyue, who was eight or nine years old, and the matter was then exposed.

The next day, Lord Shen strictly enforced military discipline to deal with those who took the lead.

Because of this, Murong Xuan became familiar with Shen Xiyue. He had been staying in Western Xinjiang for five years.

Until he had to leave, he secretly told Shen Xiyue his true identity and promised her that he would not marry anyone else.

But he didn't know why Shen Xiyue forgot...

But there is no need to mention these things now.

When Murong Xuan thinks back now, what he remembers most is the moment when Shen Xiyue was dressed in red, riding on a horse, her young face full of anger, and she tilted her head to ask him who bullied you.

When Murong Xuan looked at her again at this moment, he really wanted to carve out the best moment and send it to her.

Just to make her smile.

Shen Xiyue noticed someone was looking at her, and when she turned around, her eyes met Murong Xuan's.

The light in the corridor was dim, and his eyes were dark and shiny, like stars.

He waved at her: "Come here."

Shen Xiyue ran over holding up the hem of her skirt and saw that the carpenter was carving a deer. The carving knife in his hand seemed to have life in it. In a short while, he had carved out the antlers, making them look lifelike.

Shen Xiyue also picked up a carving knife with great interest and tried to imitate it a few times, but ended up carving a weird thing.

The old nanny tried hard to wink at the old carpenter, and the old carpenter finally reacted, got up and went back to the house with the old nanny.

He also said that if Shen Xiyue was interested, she could ask Murong Xuan for advice, as Murong Xuan was also an expert in this craft.

The corridor suddenly became empty. Shen Xiyue held the wood in one hand and the carving knife in the other, and cut it occasionally. She asked casually, "Your Highness, how did you do this?"

"At that time, I couldn't stay in Yancheng Palace and wanted to go out every day. My mother asked me to learn how to be patient..." Murong Xuan reached out from behind and took the wood in her hand. He also gently took the hand holding the carving knife, and said in his ear:

"Don't use too much force, or you'll easily get calluses on your fingers."

Shen Xiyue was a little dazed. No wonder he was always so calm... In two lifetimes, except for the time when he climbed through her window in the middle of the night, she had never seen him lose his composure.

He adjusted Shen Xiyue's gestures and asked, "What do you want to carve? I'll teach you."

Shen Xiyue couldn't think of it for a moment, so she said casually: "Then... carve a picture of His Highness first. I wonder if it will look like him?"

Murong Xuan guided her hand and started carving with a knife, while curling the corners of his lips: "Then you have to carve it carefully and carefully."
