The Self-Cultivation of a Queen at Full Level
墨書 Inktalez
The grass and leaves are green, the stream is babbling, and the willow branches occasionally lightly touch the water, causing ripples on the surface.
By the stream, there is a woman lying next to a moss-covered rock.
She is wearing a lotus-colored jacket and a light purple veil, with fair skin and a few strands of sweat-dampened hair on her forehead, adorned with a beautifully carved golden hairpin.
The woman's fingertips moved slightly, as if showing signs of waking up. Not far away, a sharp and piercing voice came over, startling her. "Hurry up! We've been discovered, and you'll pay for it." With these words, the sound of footsteps drew closer.
Shen Yige Quickly getting up, she crouched behind a rock on the shore in a panic, almost falling backwards into the water. Her fingernails accidentally scratched the rock, making a low, grating sound, causing her to gasp and rub her now roughened nails.
Holding her breath, she carefully peeked at the passersby. In her line of sight, a coarse cloth shirt slowly came into focus.
"You all search around, see if there's anything unusual. That little girl must be hiding somewhere," a fierce-looking woman pushed and shoved a few men, who hurriedly began searching around. Their eyes occasionally glanced at the woman, who would then glare at them fiercely.
Isn't that Aunt Tang Xiu? Shen Yige covered her chest and frowned. She's never been so bold before. Why is she so anxious today, to the point of wanting to put herself in a desperate situation? Those few servants are not working hard, just pretending to be under pressure from the person above Tang Xiu.
So, Shen Yige waited, and before long, they indeed left. She walked out from behind the stone, looked around, and saw layers of green leaves covering each other. The gentle wind carried the branches and leaves, occasionally blocking the sunlight that shone through the gaps. Everything was quiet, and the fragrance of flowers and trees floated in the air. She walked in the direction of the people she had just seen, and saw two figures not far away, with a pigeon flying in the sky. She pondered for a moment in her heart and decided to approach.
One person noticed someone approaching, quickly turned around, and was about to make a move when the other person seemingly unconsciously waved their hand to stop him. Seeing the handsome features of the person, Shen Yige was momentarily stunned, feeling a bit familiar and having an indescribable sensation. "Excuse me, sir, may I ask how to get out of this forest?"
Shen Yige had clear eyes, looking steadily at the person in front of him.
"Miss Shen, how come you are here?" The man who first noticed her spoke, judging from his attire, his status should be lower than the person next to him.
"I don't know either," Shen Yige also felt a headache as to why she appeared in this ghostly place.
The two people in front of her couldn't distinguish between good and evil. At this moment, she couldn't help but be more cautious. What would be appropriate to say, Shen Yige thought.
After a response, the three of them stood in silence.
Shen Yige clenched her fists, glanced at the man in front of her, his face as cold as ice, appearing arrogant. But considering she was seeking help from him, it was not appropriate to find fault with him.
However, judging from their actions just now, these two people should have a close relationship, at least a level of mutual trust. Shen Yige's gaze shifted between the two of them.
Not expecting anything from the iceberg in front of her, the one who had just spoken to her seemed to be more amiable.
"I wonder what your surnames and names are, have we met before?"
The two people in front of me are both extraordinary. One is dressed in a complex embroidered dark-colored robe, while the other, though not as luxurious, wears an elegant dark blue brocade robe that exudes an otherworldly air. The white jade pendant hanging from his waist also indicates his distinguished status. How many wealthy and noble families are there in the capital city? Shen Yige squints his attractive eyes and pretends to casually and carefully assess the situation.
Could it be the young master of the Duke Hua mansion? But she remembered that the eldest one had just come of age.
The general's mansion? I've never heard of anyone of the same generation in that branch of the family.
Looking at that handsome face and the dignified smile that unintentionally appeared, could it be that she encountered a prince? The princes still in the capital, aren't they the two who don't get along? If that's really the case, seeing this messenger today, I wonder if they can still help me leave this place.
The mysterious man in dark clothing lightly tugged at the corner of his mouth and turned around, while the other glanced at Shen Yige. What did it mean? Was it just her overactive imagination? Not only did the other party not seem to intend to silence her, but also appeared to be completely indifferent to her presence. "My lord? I remember that Miss Shen had a brief encounter with you before. If it doesn't continue today, what will happen in the future?" Can Ting joked, after all, they had a marriage agreement, and today the two happened to meet.
"What's the rush." Lu Zhuonian continued walking.
In Shen Yige's eyes, his walking speed seemed like he was strolling in the garden.
"But, are you really not taking her back to the Prime Minister's Office?" Can Ting still puzzled, furrowed her eyebrows slightly.
"She's not stupid, can't she keep up by herself?" Lu Zhuonian said in a flat tone, his gaze lingering in the surrounding greenery.
Can Ting turned around and saw Shen Yige following not too far behind them. He stopped in his tracks.
"Miss Shen, I am Can Ting. The person in front is North Duke. Don't you remember, Miss Shen?"
"Oh, I've heard of it, but I haven't seen it." Shen Yige kept looking down all the way, while Can Ting intentionally dragged her feet, walking beside her and making endless noise around her. She appeared calm on the surface, after all, she was the daughter of the Prime Minister's Office, and couldn't be seen through as a naive girl at first sight. Just as she was pondering, she unexpectedly managed to guess it right. It was indeed the prince.
Shen Yige A slight wave of emotion rose in her heart. It turns out he is the man I am going to marry, but unfortunately he feels somewhat unfamiliar. She had long forgotten the chance encounter with him in the hunting ground. At that time, she was in a hurry to find dad, and even in such a big scene, no one else could catch her eye. Children don't understand those things, but at some point, when she recalls the scene of that day, she only remembers a colorful pheasant struggling meaninglessly on the ground, not knowing who had caught it.
Looking at the person I'm about to spend my life with, I don't even have a clear picture of their face and appearance, yet I'm going to marry them so casually. Lost in thought, it feels like I just bumped into someone.
