rustle--

The razor scraped across the stubble, bringing a slight itch. Shen Wei's fingers were warm, gently brushing against his skin, and Li Yuanjing wanted to turn his head to rub Shen Wei's fingers.

"Don't move." Shen Wei reminded.

Li Yuanjing stopped moving.

He was very moved. He thought Shen Wei still loved him, even if it was not much.

It was dark outside the window, and the sound of the wind was faint in the distance from Luoyue Lake. Shen Wei finished shaving Li Yuanjing's beard, washed her hands, and put the razor back into the box.

Shen Wei felt sleepy and went back to her bedroom to rest.

As soon as he lay down, Li Yuanjing walked into the room with ease and put his arm around Shen Wei's waist skillfully.

After a cold winter, Li Yuanjing was finally able to hug Shen Wei again. He lowered his head, sniffed Shen Wei's neck, and couldn't help but ask tentatively: "Weiwei, have you missed me these days?"

Shen Wei was in deep thought.

During the months she was away, she thought about many people.

Naturally, I also thought of Li Yuanjing.

But that thought was just a fleeting thought in my mind, not a deep and lasting thought. However, Shen Wei saw that Li Yuanjing looked really pitiful, and there was a strand of white hair on his temples, so Shen Wei replied: "I have thought about it."

Li Yuanjing smiled.

In the first half of her life, Shen Wei gained his favor by pretending to be someone she was not.

In the second half of her life, Shen Wei still captured his heart with her true appearance.

Li Yuanjing knew that he was completely ruined by Shen Wei in this life.

Regardless of whether Shen Wei really loves him, as long as she stays by his side, it is the greatest blessing in the world.

...

Li Yuanjing accompanied Shen Wei diligently for more than half a month, and never left her side. Until someone came from the palace, his son Li Chengtai had important state affairs to ask for help.

Li Chengtai had not been on the throne for long, and there was a new emperor in Southern Chu. There were many complicated political affairs that were difficult to decide, so Li Chengtai chose to ask his old father for help.

Li Yuanjing had no choice but to go to the palace to help his son deal with state affairs. He secretly decided that when Shen Wei got better, he would take Shen Wei to Jiangnan.

Stay away from the court.

Shen Wei was happy to have some free time. After exercising, she returned to the study and continued to look through the Nanchu territory plan sent by the store. Cai Ping came in to report that Mo Xun, the imperial physician, wanted to see her.

The new emperor of Southern Chu ascended the throne, and Mo Xun also successfully escaped, intending to follow Li Yuanjing back to Qing. However, Mo Xun was in poor health and did not want to travel with Li Yuanjing, so he chose to return slowly alone.

Shen Xiuming got the news about her from somewhere, and prepared a comfortable carriage early. He personally waited at the border between the two countries to bring Mo Xun back.

"Shen Wei, I'm back." The voice arrived before the person arrived.

Shen Wei walked out of the study door and greeted Mo Xun in person.

The two hug.

After not seeing each other for more than a month, Shen Wei found that Mo Xun looked even more haggard, his face was as pale as frosty and his spirit was listless.

Shen Wei took her into the house, and the palace servants brought fresh fruit and tea. Mo Xun held a green date in his mouth and felt Shen Wei's pulse.

After a moment, Mo Xun withdrew his hand and continued to eat the fruit: "Your complexion is rosy, and your pulse is calm. If you take good care of yourself, you will definitely live to be eighty years old."

If it were someone else, they would have been exhausted and unable to sleep after experiencing the soul's circulation.

Mo Xun checked Shen Wei's pulse and found that Shen Wei had recovered. Mo Xun was full of admiration. As expected of Shen Wei, she always took good care of herself.

Mo Xun ate another green date and told Shen Wei gossip about Nanchu: "When you and Li Yuanli's bodies were found in the cave, Li Yuanjing thought you were dead and vomited blood on the spot. He looked so pitiful. When he learned that you had returned to Qing, he rode back immediately."

"I stayed in Nanchu for a while. The Ninth Prince of Nanchu took Li Yuanli's body back for burial. The funeral was grand and many people came to pay their respects spontaneously. When the mausoleum was sealed, it was said that a fat fox got into the mausoleum and could not be driven away. It curled up beside Li Yuanli's coffin and slept soundly, and never came out again."

When talking about Li Yuanli, Mo Xun sighed in his heart.

As expected of Zhang Hean's genes, he is crazy and paranoid in his bones. Like a moth in the dark, he will rush towards the light without hesitation.

I am willing to be burned to ashes by the fire.

Shen Wei thought of the fat fox she met in Nanchu's harem and murmured, "That fox was fat."

Li Yuanli took good care of it.

Speaking of Li Yuanli, Shen Wei's emotions did not fluctuate much, but she was afraid that she would never be able to forget this crazy man for the rest of her life.

The study was quiet, and the tea was mixed with the fragrance of lotus flowers. Mo Xun seemed to like the scented tea made by Shen Wei very much, and drank two large cups in one breath.

Seeing that Mo Xun was depressed, Shen Wei said, "Since you have already escaped from Nanchu, why don't you return to Yue? Maybe you can find the national teacher."

Yue State is Mo Xun's hometown.

The National Master has great powers. Perhaps he is not dead, and Mo Xun still has a chance to meet the National Master again.

But Mo Xun just shook his head and lowered his eyes to look at the tea in the cup: "There is nothing to find. Things in the world are unpredictable. There is no need to force it."

She and Zhang Hean have been entangled for two lifetimes, and their fate may have been worn out long ago.

A hundred years ago, she died young, leaving Zhang Hean alone to guard Southern Chu.

A hundred years later, Zhang Hean passed away before her.

Mo Xun thought he wouldn't be sad, but as the days went by, the feelings hidden deep in his heart could no longer be suppressed.

Mo Xun murmured, frowned and smiled bitterly: "Shen Wei, this feeling is really strange. When I was with Zhang Hean before, I thought he was cunning, cold, scheming, paranoid and stubborn. I wanted to stay away from him. Later, he really died, and I suddenly remembered his goodness..."

She only tasted the bitterness of the fruit she had planted a hundred years ago in the past two years.

It’s so painful to realize it so late.

Shen Wei didn't know how to comfort Mo Xun, so she asked the palace maids to prepare the boat. Luoyue Lake was beautiful in early summer and suitable for sightseeing. She took Mo Xun to see the scenery, maybe he could forget his sad things temporarily.

The palace servants were extremely efficient.

The water was vast, and the beautiful painted boat sailed into the depths of the lotus leaves. In early summer, the little lotus leaves were just beginning to show their tips, and the scenery was extremely beautiful. Mo Xun's mood really improved a little.

Mo Xun held the wine pot and leaned over the railing to catch dragonflies on the lotus flowers. She was drunk. She told Shen Wei: "Zhang Hean built a lotus pond for me before, and it was very ugly."

Shen Wei was afraid that she would get drunk, so she took the wine pot from her hand and said, "Eat some fruit first."

Mo Xun burped and said, "I don't want to eat. I want to jump into the lake and catch some fish."

As he spoke, Mo Xun grabbed the railing and flipped over flexibly.

thump—

Fall into the lake and start doggy paddling.

Shen Wei had a headache and regretted bringing Mo Xun out to relax. She quickly ordered the guards, "Hurry up and save him!"

The guards filed into the water, finding nothing.

Finally, Mo Xun was rescued by a kind-hearted tourist.

The tourist's brocade robe was wet. He wiped the lake water off his face and stood on the deck of the pleasure boat. He bowed respectfully to Shen Wei behind the pearl curtain:

"My dear lady, I am the King of Wu in Donglin. I was lucky enough to save your friend today. I don't ask for money, fame or gain, I just want to get to know you and form a bond with you."
