Dream Breaks One Day - C166

There was still no news of Li Liangxiao’s disappearance. Although this era had created a lot of situations without any news, because it was not the twenty-first century with mobile phones, one could report their safety once they reached a certain place. Even if their phone was lost, they could find a public phone by the side of the road to get in touch with their loved ones.

Communications relied on horses and pigeons that Zhuang Li found unreliable. The horses were too slow, and it would take at least half a month for a letter to arrive in the capital. Although the pigeons were faster, they had already crossed thousands of miles in the middle of the mountain road.

She kept comforting herself with these reasons, but it was only because something had happened to the horse or pigeon that Li Liangxiao sent the message to her did she not receive any news from the palace.

However, the other messages in the palace used pigeons punctually arrived every day…

She prayed at the door of the pigeon shed every day, but she still did not receive any news about Li Liangxiao …

“Miss, you should head back …”

Qing You stood at the side, causing her to become thinner, her worry for Li Liangxiao was not less than Zhuang Li’s by much. They were all young acquaintances, like siblings and family. That feeling flowed through her blood and would never be forgotten or washed away.

However, compared to Zhuang Li who was extremely worried about her, she needed to take care of more things. The emperor had sent a few more girls to help with the Opposite Moon House. No matter how sad it was, they still had to take Zhuang Li’s body into consideration.

She no longer cared about who she could offend in the palace as she slowly made her way back from the Xin Si palace. It was just that he would walk that path every day to take a look, and would not care in the slightest whether he passed by the Qingyang Palace entrance or the Huai He Palace. When he returned to the Opposite Moon House, the long and difficult night had finally begun.

Waiting is this endless…

When she opened her eyes again, it was already dawn.

She no longer knew how many days and nights she had muddled through. She wanted an answer, an answer that she knew she could not wait to get back at him.

Ever since Li Liangxiao’s incident, most of Zhuang Li’s activities had been conducted within the Opposite Moon House. The only difference was that she previously felt that it was enough with the emperor accompanying his in the vicinity, that there was a path to the Imperial Study in the Duyue Restaurant. So what if he could see the man he liked in the aroma of tea being drawn in the shadows? But now, she had locked himself within the Opposite Moon House. If he didn’t go out to check if there was any news from the Western Regions in the pigeon room, she would have never gone out.

Thus, at least the maids around her always encouraged her to go out more, be it the lotus pond, imperial garden, or even outside the palace …

This was an order from the Eunuch Li, she was afraid that Zhuang Li would be too bored, if she wanted to leave the palace, she could only send Yun Duan to accompany him.

Although Zhuang Li didn’t want to go out right now.

“Miss, Yun Duan is here. We’re going for a stroll on the streets, it’s the Double Sun Festival right now. I heard from Yun Duan that there are a lot of strange things on the streets …”

After talking for a while, Zhuang Li saw that Qing You was about to cry and did not want to make things difficult for her, so she nodded, making the girls who were taking care of around her so happy that they almost jumped. She busied herself with packing up and gave her a comb to dress up with.

At the very least, he needed to clean himself up a little …

The first thing that the little girl did every day when she woke up was to help her master dress up neatly. She was a young lady with extremely nimble hands and had also gone through the constant training in old nanny. Originally, the young master was slightly excited when he was sent by the Emperor to take care of the Duyue Restaurant. After all, he was personally appointed by the Emperor.

However, when they reached the Opposite Moon House, they discovered that their skills were useless against this master …

She was sick of Yan Yan, and often did not have the mood to wake up. Although he had never felt sad for his servant, it was difficult for him to communicate with her. He would always stay at the window, and once his brother, whose life and death was unknown, was mentioned, he could not stop crying.

Now, they were finally willing to dress up for going out. Those little girls naturally used all means at their disposal. After all, they had to wait for the next time when this grandma would be in a better mood and like to dress up.

Therefore, Zhuang Li walked out of the building with that beautiful appearance, and when she looked up, she saw Yun Duan waiting downstairs.

“How can you be like this? It was true that Li Liangxiao had lost contact, but to see the corpses of people while he was alive, it was not possible to determine that something had truly happened to him. You are in a good mood, this ghostly appearance, I wonder when General Li will come back and recognize you? ”

What he said was extremely casual, and those little girls did indeed dress Zhuang Li up to the best of their abilities. At the same time, the pretty appearance of Zhuang Li, who was gifted by the heavens, was also really giving those little girls a lot of face, providing them with an especially good foundation. But how could a martial arts genius like Yun Duan, who could not taste whether a woman was perfect, understand? He often ignored Zhuang Li’s appearance and paid attention to her mood.

Zhuang Li didn’t say a word, which also stunned him for a moment. She could only let out a sigh, and said, “Let’s go.”

Zhuang Li originally thought that he was only in charge of accompanying her out of the palace, in and out of the palace gates, or in preparation for a carriage. She didn’t think that Yun Duan would actually wrap his arms around his waist after speaking of this, and with a leap, jump onto the palace walls, and with a stomp. After a few ups and downs between the walls of the palace and the pavilion, they had already landed outside the palace gate.

Before Zhuang Li could think about it further, she was already disturbed by the chaotic scene in front of him. It was close to the Heavy Sun Festival, and the citizens of the capital viewed this holiday with great importance. It was very lively.

However, those various kinds of strange shops were not that attractive to Zhuang Li, and it seemed that because of Li Liangxiao’s disappearance, she felt that all of those were meaningless.

Yun Duan seemed to have already thought that Zhuang Li did not have the appetite to go shopping, and he helplessly pulled Zhuang Li toward the center of the city.

Although they did not know where they were going, the surrounding people became more and more lively. Zhuang Li, who was far away, could smell a fragrance. That fragrance was especially special, but it was so strong that it woke him up.

She didn’t realize it until they finally pushed their way through the crowd to their destination.

It’s a flower market…

The largest flower market in the capital was bustling with activity. Flowers were being sold and people were selling flowers to watch the fun. There were rows and rows of them piled up to the point where one couldn’t see the end of it. It was close to the Double Sun Festival, so most of the flowers sold were chrysanthemums. Although the variety raised in the imperial palace was not as delicate and wonderful, it was still especially fresh. The flowers were all grown big and bright.

Most of the chrysanthemums with particularly heavy flowers belonged to the Jinbei breed. The branches were built continuously as they grew, causing a single chrysanthemum to grow from a single flower. Therefore, the chrysanthemum was especially heavy and plump. There were also pots of small chrysanthemums, the small flowers were of a very fine variety of colors, and the shape of the flowers was especially different after being cultivated. The fragrance was especially rich.

Once it was out, every household loved to place a few pots of chrysanthemums in front of their own courtyard. They could also add medicine, soak in water, or even put them into their pillows after drying up. Sleep on pillows like that at night had the effect of refreshing the mind, so many farmers in the Great Phoenix spent a lot of effort to cultivate their chrysanthemum varieties. The biggest flower market in the capital was when they displayed the results of their year.

Zhuang Li didn’t know what Yun Duan was thinking to actually be able to think of bringing him to such a special place. It would be difficult enough to think about it, but his mood had unexpectedly become a little bit clearer. Although she wasn’t someone who loved chrysanthemums as long as she lived, in the end, she was still captivated by the rich yet not boring smell. It was as if a medicinal effect was slowly seeping into her mind.

There were many people watching the chrysanthemum, and there were also many people buying the chrysanthemums. There were many people buying the chrysanthemums, and there were many people piling up.

Although Zhuang Li was a little curious, she didn’t have the mood to waste any effort. Instead, she just wanted to go to a place with fewer people, and see those small chrysanthemums that didn’t cause a sensation, blossom after flower of warmth.

“Don’t you want to watch the show?” Yun Duan looked at the girl who had become a little sluggish, and suddenly felt a sense of anger in his heart. He hated her for her weakness, but after being provoked by her soft gaze, he couldn’t bear to reprimand her pitiful appearance.

But is this still the Imperial Noble Lady Ya that I know? He had been fooling around in the palace, trying to catch rabbits in the mountains, or he was going to explore that weird house in the middle of the night.

He shook his head and sighed, as if he considered himself unlucky and was at a loss for what to do with her. He stretched out his hand to pull her up from a small chrysanthemum flower on the ground. Then, he turned around and squeezed his way towards the most crowded group of people.

Zhuang Li had naturally rejected them initially, so she was not in the mood to watch such a commotion. How could she have that kind of strength? However, when Yun Duan held her hand, it was as if there was some kind of power that separated the people on both sides, and those people immediately split apart when they saw Yun Duan. It was only then that Zhuang Li found out, because Yun Duan had used his internal energy.
