Female lord, what should I do if there are too many peach blossoms?

Huangfu Yuesheng sighed softly. Yueying was her secret guard, but now she didn't show up even when she called her. Where did she go?

If a new secret guard is replaced, the Queen should also tell her.

A gust of cold wind blew, the chill came through the neck, and the petite body shivered.

Suddenly, there was a cloak on my shoulders.

Huangfu Yuesheng turned around in surprise and saw a man in black tights standing behind her. He had sharp and handsome features and a sharp face with clear lines. From her angle, she could see the man's clear jawline.

Yueying...seems to be much thinner than before.

Huangfu Yuesheng pursed her lips, looked around, and found that the palace maid had not caught up with her. She grabbed Yueying's arm and walked towards a secluded place.

Yueying's cold eyes flashed with joy, and she lowered her voice and called out, "Master, do you remember me?"

Huangfu Yuesheng came to a rockery with some short trees blocking the way.

She squatted down, and Yueying squatted down too.

"Shh!" Huangfu Yuesheng stretched out a white finger and put it to his lips.

Even when Yueying squatted down, he was still much taller than her, and his shadow cast a shadow over her.

He nodded.

Huangfu Yuesheng whispered: "Promise me first, tell me quickly that you will never betray me!"

Yueying's eyes were burning as she said sincerely, "I will never betray my master in my entire life. If I break my oath, I will be struck by lightning!"

"I have recovered my memory, but you can't tell anyone else. Also... I want to ask you to check something." Huangfu Yuesheng raised his hand and pulled his collar closer to him, and said in a voice that both of them could hear: "Go check Fang Shao. I want to confirm whether he is still alive."

Huangfu Yuesheng was so busy whispering to him that he didn't notice how close he was to him.

Yueying's ears turned red, her eyelashes drooped, her eyes fell on the ground, and she spoke hesitantly, "Master, I have already checked Fang Shao, but..."

He didn't want to tell his master about Fang Shao's death, for fear that she would be sad.

Huangfu Yuesheng's eyes lit up like stars, "You say!"

"He..." Yueying's magnetic voice was low and distant, "He's dead."

Huangfu Yuesheng was stunned for a moment, and blinked his dry eyes helplessly, "The wind was a bit strong just now, I didn't hear it clearly, can you say it again?"

She couldn't believe that Fang Shao was really dead...

Yueying said seriously, "Master, he is dead. Fang Shao is dead."

Huangfu Yuesheng lowered her eyes to hide the sadness in them. She found it hard to accept the news of his death with her own ears.

"How did you die?"

"According to my investigation, Fang Shao lit a charcoal fire that was too strong when he was sleeping at night. After he fell asleep, the spark jumped onto the quilt and he didn't notice it. The house caught fire and he died in the fire."

Yueying lowered his voice and observed the subtle expressions on her face. He found that she was sad for a stranger. He ignored the strange feeling in his heart and whispered to comfort her, "Master, please accept my condolences. The dead cannot be resurrected."

The girl was so close that she could clearly see the fine hairs on her cheeks, and there was a faint fragrance, like a flower, sweet.

Yueying leaned back, increasing the distance between them.

Huangfu Yuesheng grabbed his sleeve tightly, muttering to himself with a choked voice, "How did he die? He couldn't have been burned to death..."

Fang Shao is just kind, but she wouldn't be stupid enough to put a charcoal fire next to her bed before sleeping.

"What's going on with that Liu Jin? Have you checked it out?"

Yueying: "He went to the capital to blackmail you and get money."

"I see." Huangfu Yuesheng loosened his collar, lowered his head and whispered, "I suspect Fang Shao's death has something to do with him."

Yueying said decisively: "I will hang him up and interrogate him tonight."

"No, that's too rude." Huangfu Yuesheng touched his chin, raised the corner of his mouth, and said contemptuously: "He cares a lot about his face, you cut him twice."

Yueying: “…” You are still cruel enough.

"As ordered."

"Wait!" Huangfu Yuesheng grabbed his sleeve and pulled him back, "Don't leave so quickly, I want to ask you a question, where have you been these days? I haven't seen you for a long time."

"I failed to protect you properly and caused you to be injured, so I ask for the punishment of flogging..."

"Don't! Don't seek trouble all the time. You have protected me very well. Don't blame yourself." Huangfu Yuesheng stared at his chest, almost staring a hole in it, trying to see the wound on his body through his clothes.

Yueying's ears turned red, and a flash of discomfort flashed across his cold and handsome face. He pressed down the corners of his mouth and said seriously, "I am wrong."

Huangfu Yuesheng held his cheeks with both hands and pinched his cheeks with his fingers, "You must eat well, it doesn't feel as good as last time."

Yueying's chest was beating rapidly, his face was stern, he didn't dare look at her, he just stared at the ground.

His master treated him like a pet and had no other distracting thoughts at all. Yueying warned himself not to let his imagination run wild.

While he was stunned, voices were heard outside the rockery.

Yueying's body tensed up instantly, and she stared outside vigilantly.

When Huangfu Yuesheng heard this voice, the corners of his mouth curled up.

They are Fu Lelin and Huangfu Fanghua.

What are they going to do?

"Shh!" Huangfu Yuesheng raised his white index finger and placed it on his lips, signaling Yueying not to act rashly.

Yueying had excellent hearing and became alert when she heard their conversation.

"Fanghua, why didn't you look at me in the hall just now?"

"Not only is the Queen Mother here, but there are so many people here. I'm afraid that others will find out, which would be bad for you."

"You said you would come out of the palace to see me. I waited for you for a long time, but I didn't see you."

"My father has assigned me homework. I don't have time to leave the palace. I'm sorry..."

"Fanghua, you don't know how uncomfortable it was for me to sit with that idiot. She kept pulling at my clothes. I really wanted to chop off her hands." Fu Lelin couldn't hide the disgust in his eyes.

Huangfu Fanghua comforted her softly, "Although my sister is a little silly, she is very kind to everyone."

"What's the point of being nice to everyone! Now a country boy comes to compete for the position of the legal husband, I just don't care. Humph, it would be better if she marries him, then I don't have to get married." Fu Lelin knew what happened in the palace, especially the fact that Huangfu Yuesheng had defiled a man, which made him even more disgusted with her.

Not only stupid but also disgusting!

If only I could be Fanghua's husband...

Fu Lelin looked at her beautiful face, his face flushed and he lowered his head shyly.

"Fanghua, I want to be with you forever."

Huangfu Fanghua smiled, and the system prompted that his favorability had reached 80%, and the smile on his lips deepened.

"We're just good friends."

Fu Lelin lowered his head sadly and said willfully: "I don't care..."

The two people in the rockery were eating melons secretly.

Huangfu Yuesheng blinked and lowered his voice to speak into Yueying's ear, "Do you think I'm a fool too?"
