Lu Yunhong and Wang Xiu rushed back when they heard the commotion, and saw the prince and the eldest princess striding towards them.
At this moment, Wang Xiu's eldest brother Wang Lin also waved at the side, indicating that they should come quickly.
When Lu Yunhong and Wang Xiu approached, Wang Lin couldn't wait to say: "When I received the news, my father and mother were almost scared to death. They asked me to go to the palace overnight to request an order to leave the capital."
"Fortunately, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also doesn't worry about His Highness the Eldest Princess, so we were able to come here overnight."
Lu Yunhong's eyes flashed slightly. Even though news like the earthquake was urgent, but... how could it reach the Wang family like this?
But he didn't criticize her, but bowed and thanked her.
Wang Xiu thought about her eldest brother running around all night for her, and wanted to make sure she was safe. Dang Ji was moved and said: "Now that you are here, don't you need to go back in a hurry?"
Wang Lin said: "I don't know, we have to follow His Highness the Crown Prince's arrangements."
Wang Xiu heard this and looked at the prince expectantly.
At this time, the prince's eyes were bright and his expression was calm. Only his slightly pursed lips seemed to show his worry, but he and the eldest princess stood side by side, full of indescribable dignity and pride.
Wang Xiu suddenly thought of the "man with a broken leg". Compared with the prince, he was like the one who lived in the light, was dressed in fine clothes and had a golden crown, and was indescribably valuable. The other was like a wild ghost, shrouded in darkness, lonely and weird.
Wang Xiu's smile gradually disappeared, and she suddenly felt that something was pulling her towards another abyss.
But at this moment, the prince thought that she was disappointed, and said: "Of course you can stay, and we can set off together another day."
Lu Yunhong lowered his head slightly and whispered to Wang Xiu: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince agreed."
Wang Xiu raised his head, almost kissed him on the face, and punched him angrily.
Lu Yunhong smiled triumphantly and pretended to be innocent: "You were distracted on your own, why did you hit me?"
Wang Xiudao: "If you hadn't been so close..."
The eldest princess said: "You two should stop showing off your affection. Please tell us when can we set off?"
Wang Xiudao: "The day after tomorrow."
The prince made a quick decision: "Okay, then the day after tomorrow."
"I heard that you didn't have a good rest last night in order to save others. Now I have brought Doctor Zhang here. You can go to the inn and have a good sleep."
"Wang Lin, please go back with me."
Wang Lin didn't get what he asked for, so he quickly agreed.
Wang Xiuze took Doctor Zhang to see the pregnant woman and explain her condition.
As soon as they entered the tent, Doctor Zhang rubbed his waist and said, "Mrs. Lu, you don't know. We were riding fast all the way, and my waist was almost broken."
"On the way, a soldier fainted. I asked him to take a look, but His Royal Highness didn't let him go. He just asked a group of people to stay, and the others continued to move forward. I almost thought I couldn't see the sun today."
"It's said that twins can have telepathy. Obviously nothing happened to the eldest princess last night. Why...is His Highness the Crown Prince so anxious?"
Wang Xiudao: "Because we can't see or hear, if we just rely on guesswork, we will naturally think of the worst. But fortunately, everyone is safe. You can rest when you have time."
Doctor Zhang nodded and said: "Envoy Sun..."
"Hey, it's all troublesome!"
Wang Xiu understood what he wanted to say and said, "It's not easy. We'll discuss it slowly when we return to Beijing."
Doctor Zhang nodded, feeling finally better.
…
In the inn, Wang Lin waited for his sister to go upstairs and then specially called Lu Yunhong to the side.
Just when Lu Yunhong was confused, Wang Lin looked around cautiously, and when he saw no one, he lowered his voice and said to Lu Yunhong: "We almost lost our lives last night, and His Highness fainted once in the middle, because the time was very short.
It just happened for a while, so no one knew about it. But I heard clearly that His Highness called Axiu’s name when he was unconscious."
Lu Yunhong felt a little warm in his heart when he saw the caring look on his brother-in-law's face.
He nodded and said, "I understand."
Wang Lin punched him and warned: "Keep an eye on my sister. Our family just didn't want her to enter the palace, so we sent her to a village in the suburbs when she was growing up. Otherwise, think about it, young master
How many people care about your daughter? She is the first to bear the brunt of the disputes over interests. Isn’t the East Palace... the first choice? "
Lu Yunhong's heart sank, and he suddenly realized that it was not the emperor's decree that chose him.
Perhaps, the Wang family chose him.
Thinking of this, he said: "The marriage decree between Axiu and I..."
Wang Lin chuckled: "You know everything? Who told you?"
"Didn't I think you were young and talented? My father sent people to Wuxi to investigate your family and found out that your family is indeed innocent, and your father is a direct minister. Only then did you reveal such a meaning?"
"But it succeeded in the end because you and Axiu are destined. In short, you are a member of our family now, and you have to think about our Axiu, you know?"
Lu Yunhong didn't even remember how he answered. He seemed to just nodded blankly, and then went upstairs in a daze.
It turned out that the Wang family was behind his marriage to Axiu.
In this way, when the Lu family was in trouble, it was impossible for the Wang family to just grab Wang Xiu and leave it alone...
King An was right, he was narrow-minded and only saw the tragic situation of his father before his death, but he did not think about some accidents that no one could have expected.
For example, the Wang family has already had other plans, so everything makes sense.
Including, in the previous life, the real Wang Xiu went to Wuxi and tried desperately to find him...
Lu Yunhong only felt his heart clenching in pain. How much he hoped now that his Axiu would be just Axiu, the Axiu now.
But no, the two people are actually related. Otherwise, how could he bear it?
Unknowingly, Lu Yunhong was enveloped in sadness. The deeply suppressed pain that could not be vented was like a needle pricking his heart, making every breath he took excruciating pain.
Opening the door, Wang Xiu had already washed up.
She sat in front of the mirror and took off her hairpin ring. She heard the sound of the door opening, glanced at the distracted Lu Yunhong, and asked, "What's wrong? What did my elder brother say to you?"
Lu Yunhong shook his head, not knowing how to answer?
How much he wanted to tell Wang Xiu, I know you are a strange spirit, and I know you are not the real Wang Xiu.
But I want to know, do you feel familiar with the person "Wang Xiu"? Do you feel that you are her somehow?
Lu Yunhong took a deep breath, feeling that his throat was severely blocked and his eyes were sore.
At the same time, Wang Xiu, who noticed something was wrong with Lu Yunhong in the mirror, stood up.
Asked strangely: "What's wrong with you?"
Lu Yunhong looked at her, his deep pupils filled with nostalgia, which then turned into endless sighs.
Just listen to him say: "It's nothing. My eldest brother told me that the marriage between the two of us was your family's wish."
"Ah?" Wang Xiu looked confused.
Isn't this... the meaning of the royal family?
Lu Yunhong smiled bitterly: "You don't know either, right?"
Wang Xiu nodded: "Of course I don't know."
But she soon hesitated. Does the real Wang Xiu know?
