After Chuan Shu died, the four apprentices turned black

Chapter 20
"What are you talking about, we are masters and apprentices."

Nangong Yuheng's heart ached and he was extremely depressed, his throat was choked for a long time and he couldn't speak.

The re-export voice is already hoarse:
"Yes, Your Highness is right."

He pursed his lips dimly and smiled with difficulty, not knowing what was so funny at this time, but he just wanted to make himself look not so lost.

"Let's go back first, Your Highness."

The two walked forward side by side, but they were more silent than when they came here. Nangong's mind was in a mess, and he only knew how to stride forward with straight eyes.

Yueying was also confused, and felt a little guilty for hurting Nangong, but she was more relieved, at least she made it clear, she cut the mess quickly, and she didn't want to be an emotional liar.

Because of the height difference, she had to trot quickly to keep up with Nangong's long legs.

She was even a little tired from walking, so she could only slow down and rest for a while to gain some distance.

Nangong suddenly realized that there was no one around him, his face paled in shock, and he turned his head to look in a panic.

"Yueying!"

"...Huh?" Yue Ying, who was not far behind, responded blankly.

Nangong breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if he had experienced the most terrifying thing in the world just now, oh no, it was the second time that the most terrifying thing in the world happened.

He thought Yueying had disappeared again.

"How did you get so far behind?"

He put away his gaffe and asked slowly.

Yueying said awkwardly:
"You're walking too fast, you can't keep up."

Only then did he react, and he turned back to her with some annoyance, and slowed down his pace when he walked again.

"Sorry, I was thinking about something just now."

Yueying nodded, wisely, she didn't ask what she was thinking about.

Instead, change the subject:

"I'd better go and see Fuyu. It's a pity that the dog died. I'll go and express my condolences."

Not only condolences, but she also thought about it, at least she should speak clearly, tell her briefly about her and Nangong's situation, let her decide what to do in the future, don't waste her feelings in vain.

By the way, I can also inquire about other news, which can be regarded as developing contacts.

Nangong hummed, but didn't ask why she changed her mind again.

The episode just now broke his chaotic thoughts, and he thought with some fear, what if Yue Ying disappeared again?
The familiar feeling of hesitation and helplessness surged up again, and he couldn't help turning his head to look at Yue Ying frequently, to make sure she was still there.

"Keep watching what I do, and I won't disappear suddenly."

Yueying laughed.

He explained dryly:

"It's nothing."

But in the bottom of my heart, you suddenly disappeared 12 years ago.

It’s good that he didn’t leave, it’s good that he’s still here, he suddenly thought, as if he didn’t want to expect more, as long as Yue Ying was by his side, that would make him the most happy and satisfied, so why bother to force anything else.

So he cheered up again, all the troubles were blown away by the strong wind, and his heart calmed down again and was no longer chaotic.

Yueying didn't notice his small changes, but she was satisfied that she had solved the big trouble, and that she didn't have to trot anymore to keep up.

Both are satisfied.

Back at the Hall of Clouds and Affair, eat as usual, read a book for a while, wash up and go to bed when tired.

Before going to bed, Nangong reminded her:
"Tomorrow it will rain, and someone will come to ask His Highness to get up earlier than usual."

She fell into a dream expectantly.

In the dream, it was pouring rain first, and then she saw many big black dogs barking and running towards her in the misty rain. She woke up suddenly, and the sky was already light.

"Your Highness, it's time to get up."

It happened that the maid outside the door called out in a low voice, and then knocked on the door cautiously, for fear of disturbing her.

Yueying patted her chest with lingering fear, and decided to visit Princess Fuyu after returning from the rain today, and bring some dog favorite food as sacrifices, otherwise she would have another nightmare at night.

"Come in," she said loudly.

The door of the palace was opened, and a group of maids filed in, holding trays in their hands, and helped her out of bed.

"Dressed so exaggeratedly?"

She is like a puppet letting them toss, but today's dress is obviously more complicated than before, and she is dazzled by the layers. There are complicated embroidery on the dress, and there are many cloud patterns on the skirt and cuffs, and the pattern is a bit mysterious.

"It's the rain prayer clothes specially given by the national teacher."

Praying for rain?Isn't it raining? Why did it become praying for rain again?

I will ask Nangong later.

Putting the last hairpin in her bun, she was finally freed. Nangong Yuheng had been waiting in the outer hall for a long time. Seeing her in a splendid dress, her eyes were slightly bright, and she walked over and praised:

"Your Highness is incomparably beautiful."

Yue Ying proudly straightened her back:
"Of course, but just now they said it was a rain suit, what does that mean?"

She thought she was just watching the excitement, but she didn't expect that this posture seemed to have a sense of participation.

Nangong Yuheng's clothes are also a little different from normal days, obviously more formal. The black robe with wide sleeves and dark golden cloud patterns set him off more and more unfathomable, but it is much more low-key than hers.

"Your Highness prayed for rain, I will make rain, don't worry, it's interesting, you will know when the time comes."

He smiled slightly and sold it off.

They got into the car, which was more spacious and luxurious than the one that Yueying shared with him when she saw him, but it had no walls, only two seats, and the top was covered with intricately patterned blue silk, surrounded by light blue tulle. People outside could barely see the scene inside, but it was replaced by two strong horses pulling in front.

Yueying sat on the soft seat, watching curiously, Nangong Yuheng straightened her dress, and then sat beside her.

There was a palace man leading the way with a single horse in front, and there were also two rows of eight people leading the horse closely behind, with a strong posture.

After leaving the majestic palace gate, they rode on their horses, but their speed slowed down, slower than inside the palace.

"Why is it getting slower and slower?"

Yue Ying asked in a low voice.

The corners of Nangong Yuheng's mouth raised slightly:

"Afraid of bumping into people."

Yue Ying nodded in understanding.

Walking on the street, the crowd of onlookers suddenly increased. Everyone stood on both sides at the same time, looking at Che Yu curiously and in awe. When the breeze blew, the tulle sometimes floated up, and two people could be seen sitting inside, but Can't see the face all the time.

"Master Guoshi is going to rain."

"Why are there two people sitting in it? Are they women?"

"Shh, don't you know that Princess Mingchen is back?"

"No wonder, no wonder, it must be Princess Mingchen."

"I really want to see what she looks like. Is she really as beautiful as the reward?"

"It's even prettier than that. I just saw her that day. She revealed the reward. She looks like a fairy. No wonder the national teacher can't forget it. Tsk tsk... I'm afraid we're going to get married soon, right?"

"That's for sure, the rain is all together, isn't there such a big burst of rain in normal times?"

"The Bomei smiled. I didn't expect the national teacher to have such a side. Hurry up and learn..."

Small voices of discussion kept coming into Yueying's ears. At first she was a little happy to hear that she was being praised, but the more she heard it, the worse it became. She immediately turned her head to look at a certain national teacher with an innocent expression.
