After the banquet was over, Beitang You returned to his bedroom with Zhang Yu escorting him.
Zhang Yu gave the matter some thought and asked a question he had been thinking about, “Why the first person you thought about in front of the Prime Minister was Princess Yaoyao and not Princess Ji’er?” Both princesses looked exactly the same.
Beitang You gave him a surprised look when he heard this. “I’m not familiar with Princess Ji’er. I’ve only seen her twice and I’ve never even carried her.”
Zhang Yu smiled. So, did His Majesty mean that he knew Princess Yinyao better?
Beitang You frowned when he noticed how strangely Zhang Yu was smiling. He could not help but explain, “Princess Ji’er is always keeping close to Big Bro Lil Qi. No one can get close to her and I’ve only seen her twice. However, Yaoyao is different. She is adorable and likes playing with me. She is friendly with everyone and likes it when I carry her.”
During the time when Sister Empress was not around, Big Sis Qingyuan often brought him into the Palace to see the three children.
He preferred to carry Princess Yaoyao compared to the little Prince. He loved it a lot when watching the little princess who looked like a sticky dumpling.
Beitang You suddenly felt upset at a thought.
He had now left Great Shang and he would not be able to Princess Yaoyao for a long time.
The young boy had no inclination toward romance and for now, he purely viewed the little princess as a little sister.
It was because he has had a dark and unhappy childhood and had never seen such a pretty and adorable child before. Yaoyao’s existence was buried deep in his memory. She was a rainbow of colors that he could not wipe away and she was deeply engraved in his mind. It was for this reason that many years later when this little princess had run away from home and came to the Yan Kingdom, he was wildly delighted.
Zhang Yu did not say anything when he saw the changing emotions on the young boy’s face. He reminded the young Emperor to have an early night and left the room.
The next day.
When Beitang Rui rushed with Yuan Xin to the city gates on horses, Lu Liangwei and Long Yang had left.
Yuan Xin felt dejected as she looked at the empty road. She wanted to see Lu Liangwei off and say her goodbyes, but she had woken up too late…
The Yan Kingdom was quite far from Great Shang’s imperial capital. It was not just a thousand miles away. It would be difficult just to meet up.
It was not easy to find a friend that she hit it off with, yet she could not stop her friend from leaving.
Lu er left in the end.
Yuan Xin was a little sad as she mumbled, “I was still too late…”
When Beitang Rui saw how disappointed she looked, he wrapped a hand around her waist and promised gently, “If you miss her in the future, we’ll visit her at Great Shang.”
Yuan Xin thought of something and hit him on the chest. “This is your fault!” He had exhausted her in bed last night, which was why she had woken up late and missed the opportunity to say goodbye to Lu Er.
Beitang Rui grabbed her fist in the palm of his hand and said amiably, “Yes, this is all my fault. Please don’t be upset, Xin’er. Even though we missed out on saying goodbye, you can still write to each other. When the opportunity arises, we can visit Great Shang and she can come to the Yan Kingdom. You can still see each other.”
Yuan Xin leaned into his arms and her sadness dissipated a little. “Remember to make good on your promise and accompany me to Great Shang in the future.”
“Alright.” Beitang Rui promised.
Just as Yuan Xin was thinking about when she would be able to meet Lu Liangwei, Lu Liangwei and Long Yang were on their way to the frontier of the Yan Kingdom.
“Hyah…”
Lu Liangwei was bent on going home immediately and she pushed her horse to gallop faster. She could not wait to get back to Great Shang’s imperial capital.
Long Yang stayed by her side, keeping her safe as usual. He never left her.
After ten days, they finally passed the frontier of the Yan Kingdom and entered Great Shang’s West Water Frontier.
They did not rest throughout the journey and everyone was fatigued.
There was no way Lu Liangwei could ignore the welfare of everyone just because she was anxious to get home. They had to stop and allow everyone to get some rest.
