On the Lantern Festival, Ye Qing appeared at the door of his grandmother's house, bowed and said, "Greetings, Miss Shen."
"Don't be polite with me. You can rest for a day and leave tomorrow."
"Yes."
Seeing that there was no one around, he carefully took out a stack of letters from his arms and handed them to Shen Rou, whispering: "Miss Shen, this is a letter from the master."
"So many?"
"The master said that you should write back to him after reading it. He is waiting for your reply."
"Wait until you get back to Yunzhou before replying! Did Yun Ting say when he will be back?"
"Master, you can't go back to Yunzhou for the next six months."
"What! Is there going to be a war in Youzhou?"
"Last year, a snowstorm in Northern Yan caused the houses of their army and civilians to collapse. The civilians and the army had no food to eat, so they ran to our Youzhou border to steal food from the people. The generals in the army took turns patrolling the border, and our army didn't have a peaceful year."
"When I came here, Beiyan was snowing heavily again. Food is the most important thing for the people. Without food, there will definitely be riots. Our Youzhou border is also very dangerous."
"Is it that serious? You can exchange food with Da Qi to solve the current problem."
"Our two countries have been at war for years. For Great Qi to not taunt someone when they're down is the proper thing to do. How could we possibly rescue the enemy's soldiers, only to have them feed them and then attack our border?"
"That's what they say, but the people are innocent."
"They are the people of Northern Yan. They pay taxes to the Northern Yan court and not to Da Qi. Why should Da Qi save them?"
"Besides, the hatred between Northern Yan and Great Qi has lasted for many years, and the people of the two countries have also developed deep hatred."
"The people of Northern Yan believe that Great Qi is an invader, and that it is seizing their territory that has led to the numerous disasters they face."
"The people of Da Qi think that Northern Yan is a barbarian land. They run to our border to rob us because they have no food. This behavior has already angered the people. How can we possibly help them?"
"It is said that some powerful people in Northern Yan, in order to achieve their own goals, did not hesitate to collude with foreign enemies and sell out their own country and people. Such a country will decline sooner or later."
"Two years ago, the Northern Yan people poisoned our Youzhou border, resulting in over a hundred casualties among our patrol soldiers, further straining relations between the two countries."
"And in my Great Qi, some people are willing to provoke war in order to fight for power and interests. If it weren't for my master in Youzhou to intimidate the power-seeking people in Northern Yan, the two countries would have been at war again long ago."
"Against this backdrop, the hatred between the two countries is intensifying. How could we, Great Qi, possibly save the people and soldiers of Northern Yan?"
After hearing Ye Qing's words, Shen Rou said firmly: "The two countries will go to war sooner or later."
"It's inevitable, it's just a matter of time."
"Miss Shen, Master Yun Rui also asked me to give a letter to Xiaoxue."
"I'll go get her."
"it is good."
Shen Rou went to the room and called Shen Xue over. Ye Qing handed a stack of letters to Shen Xue, which surprised Shen Rou.
Do uncle and nephew both love writing letters so much? They've written so many letters in less than a month. Is that one letter a day? Do they have so much to say?
Ye Qing looked at Shen Rou's expression, and he thought to himself: This is the first time that my master has written love letters to me since she was a child. Love letters are flying all over the place, and I was also surprised when she handed them to me.
Ye Qing really admires Shangguan Yunting for having time to write letters despite being busy with military affairs.
Shen Rou looked at the letter in Shen Xue's hand, and saw her shy and cautious look, and her mind went blank.
I wondered if it was the same as what I was thinking! Oh my God! How old is she and she already knows about love? In modern times, she would still be an elementary school student. Isn’t she too precocious?
No wonder the younger sister was so anxious when she lost the jade pendant Yun Rui gave her. The jade pendant didn’t look cheap at all. Yun Rui was willing to give such an expensive jade pendant to his younger sister, which proved that he really liked Xiaoxue.
What the hell is going on here? The uncle is pursuing the elder sister, the nephew is pursuing the younger sister. What if…what if Yun Ting and I end up together? What will happen to Xiaoxue and Yun Rui? It will be a complete mess.
Shen Rou suddenly felt her head buzzing.
Shen Xue shyly ran back to her room with the letter. Shen Rou also returned to her room and asked softly, "Xiaoxue, what do you think of Yun Rui?"
Shen Xue lowered her head and fiddled with the envelope in her hand, hesitatingly saying, "Big... Big sister... I... I don't know either."
Shen Rou looked at her sister and sighed deeply in her heart. It seemed that her sister also liked Yun Rui. It was no wonder that Xiaoxue liked Yun Rui.
He is handsome, just like a man who walked out of a painting. It is not an exaggeration to describe Yun Rui as a man as beautiful as jade and a young man unparalleled in the world.
Who wouldn't like a man who is rich, handsome, gentle, and good to Xiaoxue?
Matters of the heart were truly complicated, so she decided to let it go and just take it one step at a time. After all, they were still young and it wasn't clear whether they could make it to the end.
If they can still be in love with each other in a few years, I will wish them all the best.
Shen Xue looked at Shen Rou and said cautiously, "Sister, I..."
"You're still young, let's talk about it in a few years. The Yunrui family is obviously a powerful family, and they are worlds apart from ours. Whether you can make it to the end depends on whether you have this fate."
Shen Xue lowered her head shyly and said nothing.
"Don't think too much now. Pack up and go back to Yunzhou tomorrow."
"Okay, I'll clean it up."
On the night of the Lantern Festival, the air in the countryside is filled with a strong festive atmosphere.
Shen Jun and Shen Ming made torches and brought Xiaoxue and Xiaonan to the door of their house. The torches in their hands burned with flames, illuminating the darkness around them.
They played and frolicked excitedly, waving torches in their hands and with joyful smiles on their faces.
"Big sister, come quickly, it's really fun."
"You guys play!"
The men and women around also lit torches, and the whole village became lively.
Under the light of torches, everyone laughed and talked, enjoying the joy brought by this traditional festival.
The light from the torches illuminated their faces, warm and bright.
At night, Shen Rou made sure her sister was asleep. She quietly entered the space and lay on the sofa to read the love letter Shangguan Yunting wrote to her.
The opening line "One day without seeing you feels like three years" made her heart flutter and a happy smile appeared on her face.
She had lived in modern times for twenty-nine years without receiving a love letter from a man. When she traveled through time to ancient times, she found that a tall, rich and handsome man, or a little boy, wrote her such a love letter, which made Shen Rou fall into the whirlpool of love and unable to extricate herself.
Every word in the letter was full of affection, and Shen Rou seemed to see Shangguan Yunting's longing when he wrote these words.
A smile appeared on her face involuntarily, and her heart was filled with happiness. She looked completely different from the expression she had when she killed someone two days ago.
