Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 888

"A-Yue, you go to sleep first." Afterwards, the two cuddled in bed for a while. Then, hearing a noise outside, Murong Yu kissed her forehead.

"What's wrong?" Yun Xiyue's forehead was covered in sweat, her hair was damp. Seeing him get up, she also got up, after all, this wasn't her own home.

I was so engrossed in my work that I forgot I was on someone else's turf.

Now that I'm fully awake, I naturally dare not let my guard down.

"Someone's here." Murong Yu picked up the clothes from the bed and handed them to her.

"You lie down first."

He knew she was tired, and in order to satisfy himself, he actively cooperated.

You definitely won't be able to walk now that you're on the ground.

"When you come back in a bit, I'll carry you to take a bath. I guess it's Canxue who's here."

"Her sudden visit must be because she has news from her master."

Murong Yu smiled and said, "I will go and inquire about the news."

Thinking of the way Canxue looked at him, Yun Xiyue couldn't help but be wary. "Well, then you can take Shadow with you."

Be wary of lone men and women.

But she didn't say it too explicitly, "Although Canxue isn't as ruthless as Mingdao, you still have to be careful."

"Alright, I will be careful." Murong Yu was unaware of her ulterior motives and simply assumed she was concerned about him.

He stepped forward and kissed her lips again before reluctantly letting go.

They entered the courtyard with their shadows.

The attic was very large, with three floors, and they lived in the warm attic on the second floor.

Canxue went to think about them but then returned.

They didn't leave then, still standing in the courtyard watching the blooming plum blossoms.

The scenery here is also unique; outside, snowflakes are falling, but inside, it's full of springtime charm.

"Miss Canxue," Shadow stepped forward and reminded her.

Tonight, Canxue was dressed in a striking red gown, like a blazing fire burning amidst the snow. The hem of her dress was embroidered with intricate patterns in gold thread, resembling winding, fiery streams that shimmered subtly with her movements.

Her waist was slender, barely a handful, and cinched with a matching belt.

Standing quietly in the courtyard, I saw several old plum trees in front of me, their bare branches sprawling, with pink and white blossoms standing proudly on their branches.

She was tall and slender, with her black hair loosely tied up, a few strands falling down her fair neck, like a freehand ink painting.

Hearing the noise, she turned around and, without her veil, revealed a stunningly beautiful face with delicate eyebrows and bright red lips.

But he has a cold demeanor.

"I have met the emperor."

Murong Yu remained calm, glancing at her indifferently. His eyes were unwavering; he had seen countless beauties, and he was no less beautiful than Canxue.

Although she was so beautiful that she seemed otherworldly.

But he remained unmoved, still thinking about how beautiful Ah Yue looked in red, even more beautiful than her.

Once inside the courtyard, everyone changed into red clothes, including Shadow and the others. They felt thin, but they were very warm.

"Miss Canxue, there's no need for such formalities. You've come to see me with new news?"

Murong Yu was also dressed in red. He was tall and upright with broad shoulders and a narrow waist. A jade pendant with a dragon pattern hung at his waist, adding to his noble appearance.

Her long hair was tied up, her sword-like eyebrows slanted upwards to her temples, and her eyes were long and deep, their darkness revealing a chilling coldness, like an icy pool on a cold night, capable of freezing one's heart.

There was a hint of lustful red at the corner of her eyes, and her thin lips were also rosy. Although her whole aura was cold, it inexplicably made people's hearts race.

Canxue secretly glanced at him, "Yes, Master will come here tomorrow after he finishes his seclusion."

"I went to see the Emperor just now only to deliver medicine."

Murong Yu looked at the medicine bottle she took out but did not take it. "A-Yue brought the medicine. Thank you, Miss Canxue."

"When you arrived, you had lost all your luggage, so where would you get the medicine?"

From the moment we entered the snow-capped mountains, we threw away everything we could to save our lives.

"There are herbs here, and Her Majesty the Empress can prepare all kinds of medicines." Seeing that his master was getting impatient and wanted to leave, Shadow answered for Murong Yu.

"Miss Canxue, it's getting late. You should go back and rest!"
