Chapter 879 His White Moonlight 12
Yuwen Xue has always been bright and cheerful. Even though she fell off a cliff before, she was not seriously injured because of Lou Yunsheng's rescue.

This time, when she fell into the lake, it was the weakest Lou Yunsheng had ever seen her.

Lou Yunsheng frowned, suppressing the urge to pull her into his arms.

If Yu Muhuai were here, he would find Lou Yunsheng's feigned affectionate expression greasy.

He asked with concern, "How are you feeling? Should we call a doctor over to take a look?"

If it were in the past, she would have been very happy to hear Lou Yunsheng's words of concern for her.

However, Yuwen Xue hesitated for a moment, remembering what Yu Muhuai had instigated her, before replying, "Thank you, Your Highness, there's no need to find a doctor."

Lou Yunsheng assumed she was not feeling unwell, so he didn't think much of it.

"What would you like to eat? Just have the cook make it."

Yuwen Xue shook her head: "Thank you, Your Highness, but no need. I am not hungry."

Lou Yunsheng frowned slightly, sensing something was amiss.

He hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Did you hear anything while you were on the ship?"

Yuwen Xue shook her head again: "No, I didn't hear anything."

Lou Yunsheng breathed a sigh of relief and felt much more at ease.

In his memory, Yuwen Xue was not a woman who would lie.

But if I didn't hear it, why does she seem a little strange?
Lou Yunsheng asked, "Is something on your mind?"

Yuwen Xue shook her head again: "I have nothing on my mind."

Lou Yunsheng:
Something's wrong. You're acting very strangely.

He frowned, already feeling somewhat annoyed.

Although he was once an unloved hostage, he is now the Prince Duan, the most valued of all the princes, and the one with the best chance of becoming the crown prince.

He came here out of kindness to show some concern for Yuwen Xue, so why would she treat him so coldly?

If you're arguing and directly say what's bothering you, that's fine. But if you say you're fine, you'll act like something's wrong.

Do you expect me to fawn over you and make you happy?
Lou Yunsheng grew increasingly displeased, his expression darkened, and his tone became much colder.

"It's almost dinner time, would you like to have dinner together?"

Yuwen Xue shook her head habitually: "No need, thank you, Your Highness."

Lou Yunsheng: !!

Finally, he flicked his sleeves and left Tingxue Pavilion with a dark expression.

After Lou Yunsheng left, Cuizhi walked to the bedside with a head full of questions.

She asked, puzzled, "Your Highness, the Prince rarely comes to show you goodwill, so why did you just send him away like that?"

Yuwen Xue looked at Cuizhi with a deep gaze and said, "This is a tactic; you wouldn't understand."

Cui Zhi: ? ? ?
When did the princess stop scheming against the prince?

Seeing Lou Yunsheng's departing figure, Yuwen Xue found that she didn't feel as sad as before.

She realized that Yu Muhuai was right. If she used more of the energy she would have spent loving others to love herself and pay more attention to her own body, she wouldn't be so easily saddened.

This is a simple matter to explain, but in the past, Yuwen Xue felt she definitely wouldn't have been able to do it.

But too many things happened during this time. First, he fell off a cliff, then he fell into a lake. In between, he became "friends" with Yu Muhuai and heard many things he had never heard before.

For some reason, Yuwen Xue's state of mind changed drastically.

Especially his remarks on the ship, which made her feel strange towards Lou Yunsheng for the first time. A strange, inexplicable disgust.
Because she was certain that Yu Muhuai had no inappropriate feelings for Lou Yunsheng.

Whenever Lou Yunsheng was mentioned, Yu Muhuai remained remarkably calm.

You might even see a hint of disdain in her eyes.

Yuwen Xue was also a woman, especially one who had been in unrequited love for a long time. Of course, she knew that liking someone wouldn't be like this.

Therefore, Yuwen Xue reached a conclusion.

Yu Muhuai doesn't like Lou Yunsheng; it's Lou Yunsheng who has a one-sided crush on him.

Falling in love with a subordinate is not a shameful thing, but Lou Yunsheng did it as if it were something that could not be seen in the light of day, and even wanted to keep it a secret from his wife, the principal wife.

Since falling in love with Lou Yunsheng, her entire life has revolved around him, and she has completely lost herself.

However, from now on, Yuwen Xue found that she seemed to be gradually finding herself again.

Yuwen Xue is gradually finding herself again, but Lou Yunsheng feels that something is very wrong lately.

There's something off about the two women in the mansion.

He was struggling with his relationship not long ago, but somehow he started to take Yuwen Xue to heart.

Every night, he would tilt his head at a 45-degree angle to look up at the starry sky, reminiscing about the past, sometimes happy, sometimes sad.

He was afraid of letting down A-Ci, and also afraid of hurting Yuwen Xue.

He would always get stuck in this self-created atmosphere and find it hard to extricate himself, yet the next day he had to concentrate highly to complete the emperor's orders.

Lou Yunsheng repeated this process over and over again for a month, leaving him physically and mentally exhausted.

He had assumed that the two women in the manor were experiencing similar feelings to him during this time, both caught in a state of anxiety.

But to his surprise, one turned her back on him, while the other kept rejecting him.

Moreover, these two people sometimes even address each other as sisters!
Don't think that just because Lou Yunsheng isn't in the manor he doesn't know. After all, this manor belongs to him, and his subordinates will inform him of anything that happens.

Did someone drug those two while he was away from the mansion?

Lou Yunsheng's confusion continued until the morning court session the following day.

In the imperial court, he was still preoccupied with his emotional entanglements, his mind a jumbled mess, so much so that he didn't pay close attention to the matters being discussed by the ministers.

"Shaochang, since that's the case, I'll leave this matter to you." Suddenly, the Emperor's weary voice came from above.

Lou Yunsheng:
No, Father, what are you saying?
Lou Yunsheng bowed and respectfully said, "Yes, Father."

Upon hearing Lou Yunsheng's reply, the Emperor nodded in satisfaction. After saying only a few words, he instructed the eunuch to adjourn the court session.

The current emperor indulges in excessive pleasure, which has severely depleted his health. He always looks like he hasn't slept properly.

Attending court every day was his last act of perseverance.

After the court session, Lou Yunsheng learned what task he had been assigned.

Today, a minister reported that the lower reaches of the Qingyuan River in the east are overflowing, and the river water is flowing back into nearby cities, causing a considerable area of ​​damage.

The most severely affected area is Gushui Town, which has displaced nearly 100,000 residents.

Valley Water City is one of the largest cities in the eastern part of Lanting Kingdom, with a permanent population of approximately 180,000.

One hundred thousand residents have been affected, exceeding half of the city's population.

In this era, a city with 180,000 people was already considered to be of very large size.
