Early the next morning, Yu Chengqin sent Zhou Bo a preface and handed him a memorial and a letter.
"Please bring this letter to Concubine Xie."
"Okay." Zhou Boxu took it, said goodbye to Yu Cheng and got into the carriage.
Shangjing is in the direction of the rising sun, and the wheels are rolling and driving away towards the sun.
Yu Cheng looked at the carriage that was getting further away and sighed almost inaudibly.
He also wants to go back to Beijing.
However, as a prince, he did not have the capital to act as he pleased. He can only hope that everything will go well in the future and Duanzhou will return to normal soon, so that he can retire with success and return to Beijing with peace of mind.
May is the season when peonies bloom. Seeing that the flowering period is about to pass, Yu Zheng finally makes time and takes Jiang Shu to enjoy the flowers and watch the sunset.
It was still the western suburbs of the city, and it was still the same hillside full of wild flowers and peonies. After setting foot on it again after a year, Jiang Shu couldn't climb the hill anymore with his belly full, so he could only look at the beautiful scenery on the hillside and sigh.
Yu Zheng asked her: "Want to go up?"
Jiang Shu nodded and shook his head, holding his bulging belly and said, "I can't get up."
The hillside was covered with green grass, which was soft and slippery to step on. She remembered that when she went up to the top of the hill last year, she had to be held by Yu Zheng to hold her steady. Now that she was pregnant, she didn't dare to take any risks.
Yu Zheng curled his lips and said mysteriously: "Wait a minute."
wait? What are you waiting for?
Yu Zheng didn't say anything and took her for a leisurely walk by the river embankment.
Wild flowers are everywhere along the river, like a carpet embroidered with flowers, which makes people unbearable to step on.
The gentle breeze blew by, causing microwaves to appear on the river surface, shattering the golden glow that sprinkled on the water.
This kind of scenery makes people feel peaceful, comfortable and extremely relaxed.
Jiang Shu smiled slightly, feeling the breeze caressing his face, smelling the fragrance of wild flowers, and watching the leaves whirling.
After about a quarter of an hour, Zhufeng came over with a hoe and reported: "Master, the digging is done."
Jiang Shu looked at the mud on the hoe, a little confused.
What has been dug?
"Let's go." Yu Zheng led Jiang Shu towards the side of the hillside.
After stepping on the steps made of wet soil, Jiang Shu suddenly understood.
No wonder Zhuiyun Zhufeng was nowhere to be seen when she got out of the car. It turned out that he was digging steps.
The two of them walked up the steps to the top of the slope. Tan Yu and Zhui Yun also moved up with some stools and refreshments.
After finding a flat place and putting down some stools and placing some refreshments, Zhuiyun and Tanyu left.
Jiang Shu looked at everything in front of him and said with some embarrassment: "I just came out to see the scenery, you don't have to indulge me like this."
Yu Zheng pulled her to sit down and poured her a cup of tea in a leisurely manner: "Try it, it tastes different in the mansion and here."
Jiang Shu took it and savored it carefully.
It's indeed different. It's obviously the same tea, but it feels sweeter and sweeter when I drink it. It's really strange.
Maybe it’s because this place is rare and precious.
"This year's peonies are blooming better than last year." Jiang Shu sighed as he looked at the peonies blooming all over the slopes.
Everything has two sides. Too much rain is a disaster for people, but it is nutrients for plants, allowing them to grow better and bloom bigger and more beautiful flowers.
Yu Zheng stood up and picked some flowers.
Some were pink and some were white, all in full bloom. Their beauty was so intense that Jiang Shu couldn't move his eyes away.
"The sun has set." Yu Zheng reminded.
Jiang Shu raised his eyes and looked at the horizon.
The moment the orange-red sunset touched the horizon, it burst into scorching light, and the golden clouds seemed to burn, turning red at a speed visible to the inner eye.
Shocking and beautiful.
"So beautiful." Jiang Shu couldn't help but admire.
Yu Zheng looked sideways and saw her clear apricot eyes reflecting the gorgeous scenery, with a heartfelt smile on her face.
Yu Zhengji couldn't remember the difference between this year's sunset and last year's. But he clearly remembered Jiang Shu's expression when he watched the sunset.
Same as this year.
She couldn't get enough of the sunset, and he couldn't get enough of her.
As the evening breeze blew, Yu Zheng reached out and took Jiang Shu into his arms, letting her lean on his shoulder.
"If you like it, we will come every year." Yu Zheng promised softly.
Jiang Shu said greedily: "I want to see the rising sun next year."
"Well, you can also look at the stars in the sky." Yu Zheng was extremely indulgent.
Jiang Shu raised his head and stared at Yu Zheng and said, "Won't you find it boring, husband?"
Yu Zheng's dark eyes flashed slightly: "As long as you stay with me, I won't feel bored even if you look at her every day."
Jiang Shu's face turned red when he heard this, and he said shyly, "That's not what I asked."
"What is that?" Yu Zheng deliberately teased her.
Jiang Shu hesitated for a long time, not knowing what to say.
Yu Zheng was amused by her anxious look. He lowered his head and pecked her smooth forehead and said, "Shu'er, I have already answered you."
Jiang Shu was startled and suddenly realized.
Yu Zheng said that as long as she stayed with him, he would not feel bored, which meant that in his heart, it was the scenery, not the people, that would be bored.
After Jiang Shu understood, his face became hot and his face became even redder.
Yu Zheng chuckled and said, "The sunset is coming to Shu'er's face."
Jiang Shu: "..."
When it comes to talking about love, she will never be as good as Yu Zheng because she is too thin-skinned.
Picking up the tea cup in front of him and taking a sip, Jiang Shu said seriously: "The sun has already set halfway. If you don't look at it, it will be gone."
It was a rare time to come out and relax, so Yu Zheng stopped talking and quietly enjoyed the scenery with her.
On the side of the hillside, Zhuiyun and Tanyu were sitting on the grass next to the steps, talking and obeying orders at any time.
"The sunset is so beautiful, and so are the flowers." Tan Yu picked a peony and held it in her hand to play with.
Zhuiyun looked at her and silently added in his heart: She is also good-looking.
Thinking of something, Tan Yu asked Zhuiyun: "Last year I asked Zhufeng to bring peony to you, did you receive it?"
Zhuiyun nodded: "I got it."
That bunch of peonies was scattered a lot, and the delicate petals were damaged into disarray.
Even so, after learning that Tanyu had given it to him, Zhuiyun still found a vase and refused to throw it away until the last petal was adjusted to zero.
This year, he wanted to give it to her.
Seeing Zhuiyun stand up suddenly, Tan Yu asked in confusion: "What are you doing?"
Zhuiyun said: "Picking flowers, I'll be back soon."
Tan Yu watched him enter the peony bush, bent down to pick some, and soon brought back a large handful.
"Here you go." Zhuiyun sent it to Tan Yu.
Tan Yu immediately blushed and stammered: "For... for me?"
"Well, is that enough?" Zhuiyun asked sincerely.
Tan Yu nodded: "That's enough."
After waiting for a moment and not hearing Zhuiyun speak, Tan Yu couldn't help but ask: "Why did you send me away?"
Zhuiyun looked at her and asked, "What about you? Why did you send it to me last year?"
Not only did he give him flowers, but he also gave him a sachet embroidered with peonies.
Tan Yu's eyes evaded and said: "I am very grateful and guilty that you were injured in saving me. I will send you flowers to express my gratitude."
Zhuiyun laughed softly and gently exposed her lie: "The meaning of peony flowers is love."
Tan Yu was startled when she heard this. She subconsciously raised her eyes and looked into Zhui Yun's affectionate eyes.
This is a God-given opportunity, don’t miss it.
Zhuiyun reached out and grabbed Tan Yu's hand, stared into Tan Yu's eyes and said, "Tan Yu, I love you, so I give you peony."
She is a thin-skinned girl, so let him tell her.
