Chapter 68: Stirrings of True Love

    

yThe Glory王府, though not as splendid and luxurious as the imperial palace, had its own unique ancient charm. Piled rocks and stone carvings, pavilions by water, bridges adorned with paintings, flowers...Chapter 68: Stirring True Affection

Countless cases, from recent to old, were proposed. Rong Jing's voice was faint but every word he chose could not be touched upon!

Yun Qianyue listened quietly. From ten years ago when the Prince of Yong was poisoned and Rong Jing was persecuted, to more recently when the Wen Bo Houfu family was exterminated, and up until a short while ago when she and Rong Jing were ambushed on the streets by a hundred elite guards, there had always been an unseen hand manipulating these events. And it was not just any hand—it was a giant one.

After Rong Jing's words ended, Ye Tianyi suddenly fell silent.

Yun Qianyue looked at Ye Tianyi. Compared to this, burning a small grain depot truly didn't amount to much. Those events were all stained with blood and human bones. How much of it Ye Tianyi knew, she wasn’t sure, but she always felt that he was more aware than her about such matters.

After a moment, Ye Tianyi smiled, “What the Young Prince Jing said is also correct! There are indeed countless capable people in this world.”

Rong Jing remained silent and gave a faint smile; his smile was slightly cool.

"Who were the main officers responsible for guarding these two grain depots yesterday" Ye Tianyi turned to ask the soldiers standing between the two burned-down grain depots. These soldiers were all kneeling on the ground with their spears and sabers planted in front of them. Among them, there were two soldiers dressed as officers kneeling among the soldiers; he fixed his gaze on these two officers.

"Your Highness, it was us!" The two officers immediately replied.

"Tell me about yesterday's situation," Ye Tianyi said.

“Yes!” They answered in unison and exchanged a glance. One of them spoke up: "Around this time yesterday, we heard loud explosions from both grain depots at the same time. We quickly opened the doors to check; inside, there was an intense blaze, with all the grains catching fire."

"Was there any sign before that" Ye Tianyi raised his eyebrows.

“There wasn’t!” The man shook his head.

“Indeed, there wasn't,” said the other officer as he shook his head and added: “Though our forward camp has been training day and night, we have been on a three-shift system to ensure we are well-rested. Up until that moment, we heard no sound from inside.”

“Was any soldier away during this time Or did someone neglect their duties when changing shifts” Ye Tianyi asked.

"All the soldiers were present throughout. The grain depot is of critical importance to the military headquarters and it has always been stipulated that no one can leave alone or for personal matters without supervision. If anyone had to leave, there would be at least two people accompanying them, and all officers and soldiers eat and sleep together in a group so everyone is within sight." The officer said.

Ye Tianyi nodded and then asked, "When did the young Prince Ran arrive"

"The Young Prince Ran arrived precisely when we heard the explosions," replied the man. Before Ye Tianyi could ask another question, he continued: “After arriving, the Young Prince Ran opened the grain depot to find an intense blaze raging inside; all the grain bags were ablaze and there was no way to extinguish it.”

“Hmm, did burning of the grain depots leave any traces” Ye Tianyi asked.

"We have checked thoroughly. There are no fire torches or flammable materials," said the man shaking his head, also puzzled: “This is truly unprecedented! Since I entered this military camp over ten years ago and was responsible for guarding these grain depots, such a situation has never occurred.”

"Haha, indeed it's quite unusual!" Ye Tianyi suddenly smiled. "Could it be that it’s divine fire"

The soldier trembled at his words and replied somewhat shakily: “Your Highness, the idea of divine fire is indeed out there! Perhaps this really...”

"I don't believe in such things. Divine fire could penetrate an iron gate to create a loud explosion and set ablaze a grain depot, but why did it only burn these two Moreover, how come you guarding the depots so close by weren’t burnt” Ye Tianyi raised his eyebrows.

"Divine fire is heavenly calamity, a warning from heaven. Maybe there’s some divine guidance..." The man said again, shivering.

“Nonsense!” Ye Tianyi loudly interrupted him in a clear voice.

The soldier immediately stopped talking; his body was trembling continuously. Of the five thousand soldiers present, everyone lowered their heads and didn't show any expression, but their bodies trembled as well—obviously they all believed in the idea of divine fire.

Yun Qianyue thought that superstition in ancient times was truly scary. Now someone dared to say this openly in front of Ye Tianyi, which suggested there were likely many people who held such beliefs within the military. It seemed morale was low due to fear, but she also wanted to know how the fire started.

"You open the door, and I'll go in to take a look!" Night Tianyi spoke solemnly.

The person trembled as they got up to open the iron door.

Night Tianyi glanced at Rong Jing and raised an eyebrow. "Will Young Prince Jing also come inside to have a look"

"Of course!" Rong Jing nodded.

Leading the way, Night Tianyi went in first, followed by Rong Jing, Yun Qianyue, and Night Tianyu. The three of them entered the grain storehouse that had been burned down. Everywhere they looked was pitch black, except for the ashes on the ground; there were no other items left behind. The walls around all four sides were made of iron doors and iron plates, with only one entrance for guards to use, and no other exits.

Night Tianyi kicked the ashes on the ground with his boot, revealing that the ground was also paved with iron plates. With all four sides constructed of iron plates like this grain storehouse, apart from the single entrance, there were no other doors. Now, after the fire had destroyed all the grain, only the iron plates remained, without any traces of human activity.

Yun Qianyue thought to herself that it was no wonder everyone outside said it was divine fire!

"Soldiers! Clear out these ashes!" Night Tianyi gave orders from inside.

"Yes, sir!" The two leaders immediately responded. With a wave of their hands, a squad of soldiers carrying baskets entered to sweep the ashes off the ground.

"Seventh Brother, I think you're wasting your effort! This ground is paved with iron plates that are ten inches thick; beneath them are iron rods as thick as fists, connected in sequence, securing the ground three feet below. Any person trying to dig an underground passage from this ground won't succeed," Night Tianyu said.

Night Tianyi glanced at Night Tianyu and replied, "Nothing is impossible in this world! Even if it's not possible, these ashes still need to be cleared away. Can we leave the grain storehouse in this state"

"Seventh Brother believes there's a possibility I also want to know whether it was divine fire or not! Divine fire can't damage iron plates and doors but specifically destroys all the grain inside; how interesting!" Night Tianyu laughed.

The theory of divine fire is purely speculation! As Father Emperor's son, Fourth Brother should be cautious with your words!" Night Tianyi reminded Night Tianyu.

"But in such a situation, it’s hard to believe otherwise!" Night Tianyu dismissed the reminder. "Therefore, when Seventh Brother investigates and finds out the cause and evidence, this task will become one of Father Emperor's commissions for you after returning to the capital, besides teaching Moon Sister! If you fail to do well, you’ll have let down Father Emperor’s expectations!"

"Letting down Father Emperor's expectations isn’t such a big deal!" Night Tianyi said indifferently.

"That's right, I forgot Seventh Brother also has the entire northern frontier! Letting down Father Emperor's expectations certainly isn't much of an issue In your eyes, you already think Father Emperor’s favor is worthless," Night Tianyu mocked coldly. "Nowadays, among Father Emperor’s sons, it seems only Seventh Brother stands out in ability! Everyone respects Father Emperor, but only Seventh Brother dares not take him seriously!"

Night Tianyi suddenly turned to look at Night Tianyu.

Nostril flaring, Night Tianyu challenged Night Tianyi with a raised eyebrow. "Seventh Brother! Do I say something wrong"

"Fourth Brother, do you remember how Fifth Brother died" Night Tianyi looked at Night Tianyu, his voice suddenly very soft.

Night Tianyu's expression changed, then he angrily said: "How should I know Why are you bringing this up"

"So Fourth Brother doesn’t know! I thought you knew! The way Fifth Brother died, I’m very clear about it!" Night Tianyi’s face was cold as he lowered his voice. "During those years, did Fourth Brother never dream of Fifth Brother"

Night Tianyu's face paled, and he suddenly took a step back; looking at Night Tianyi, he wanted to shout angrily but stopped when Night Tianyi turned around, speaking coldly: "Fourth Brother, one fears not knowing oneself, and also fears overestimating one’s capabilities!"

Night Tianyu had his anger suppressed in his heart, unable to vent it.

Yun Qianyue watched the two men, her gaze falling on Night Tianyu’s pale and angry face. She thought that with just a sentence, Night Tianyi held the leverage over Night Tianyu regarding the incident of Fifth Prince's death in the pond. Naturally, he wouldn’t dare argue loudly here about the matter concerning him, for it was closely related to him.

Rong Jing had been standing by this whole time, his expression calm as he watched them; behind his clear eyes lay a layer of cold mockery.

"Seventh Prince! The cleaning is done!" As they spoke, the soldiers cleared out all ashes from the burned grain. The two leaders reported to Night Tianyi.

Night Tianyi looked at the clean ground with no signs of anything being missed; the iron plates on all four sides were undamaged. Now that the ashes had been cleaned up, both burned grain storehouses were empty. He pursed his thin lips tightly, saying nothing.

"Seventh Brother! Now that you've swept the ashes, with your intelligence and wisdom, did you discover anything" Night Tianyu suppressed his annoyance and sneered at Ye Tianyi, who pursed his lips.

"Open the doors of those two grain silos!" Ignoring Night Tianyu's remark, Ye Tianyi gave an order.

"Yes! Your Highness Seventh Prince!" Someone responded immediately and opened the other two intact grain silos.

Ye Tianyi glanced at Rong Jing before asking, "Young Marquis Jing, would you like to go over there with us"

"Of course!" Rong Jing replied mildly.

Ye Tianyi walked towards the left intact grain silo. Upon arriving at its door, he slightly leaned forward and entered inside. Rong Jing followed him slowly while Yun Qianmo looked at Rong Jing before following in as well. Night Tianyu naturally did not want to fall behind either and thus went after them.

The grains stored within this grain silo were neatly arranged generation by generation, with nothing but grain bags inside it.

"Seventh Brother, don't tell us you still plan on opening every bag of grain one by one!" Night Tianyu snorted coldly.

Yun Qianmo thought about how Night Tianyu had always been looking for trouble with Ye Tianqin before and now he was targeting Ye Tianyi ever since his return to the capital.

Ye Tianyi pretended not to hear him, ignoring Night Tianyu as he reached out and touched a grain bag. He then untied one of the bags and took a look at the grains inside it. After a moment, he suddenly turned around and walked towards another intact silo on the right side.

Rong Jing observed Ye Tianyi's actions before walking after him with his eyes flashing slightly. Yun Qianmo did the same as she blinked her eyes and followed too. Night Tianyu was at a loss and thus followed behind them.

Arriving at the intact grain silo on the right, Ye Tianyi proceeded to do the same thing he had done before. After a while, he walked out and told the officer who previously mentioned heaven fire earlier: "It's not heaven fire; there’s something wrong with the grains themselves!"

The officer widened his eyes as everyone present looked at Ye Tianyi in confusion.

"Seventh Brother, you can't be serious! What could possibly go wrong with the grains Could they cause such a loud bang and burn by themselves" Night Tianyu snapped. "Are you just going to make something up without evidence just to prove your capabilities"

Ye Tianyi's voice was slightly cold as he warned, "Whether there is an issue with the grain or not doesn't need me to explain it to my Fourth Brother! My Fourth Brother should consider how he would explain things if I report what Fifth Brother did to His Majesty and provide evidence!"

Night Tianyu's expression changed instantly as he stopped talking.

"Young Marquis Jing, do you think there is a problem with the grains Is it true or not" Ye Tianyi ignored Night Tianyu and looked at Rong Jing. "As the first wonder talent of Heavenly Saint and even possibly the greatest in the world, wouldn't Young Marquis Jing be able to spot something like this"

"Spotting it won’t solve anything! Seventh Prince needs evidence to prove that there is indeed a problem with the grains. Second, by doing so, he can calm down the army’s anxiety and prevent them from panicking over heaven fire." Rong Jing raised an eyebrow slightly.

Ye Tianyi nodded in agreement: "Young Marquis Jing speaks wisely!" He then instructed the officer, "Go fetch a bag of grain here to burn."

"Yes!" The officer immediately walked away and soon returned with a bag of grain. After glancing at Ye Tianyi, he used flint to ignite the straw sack, producing thick smoke instantly.

Rong Jing suddenly reached out and pulled Yun Qianmo into his arms, covering her nose and mouth with a handkerchief.

Yun Qianmo felt a puff of smoke enter through her nostrils. She coughed lightly as the stench vanished and was replaced by a fragrant scent reminiscent of snow and lotus flowers. Stunned, she looked up to see Rong Jing looking at her with a gentle smile. Before she could feel touched by his care, he pursed his lips and said, "Indeed a girl; so delicate!"

Yun Qianmo was instantly infuriated and wanted to pull away from him but then heard him chuckle again: "Being delicate is good. Otherwise, if you always want to be strong in everything, why do I even exist I like it when you’re delicate!"

Yun Qianmo fell silent as she stared speechless at Rong Jing, who had said all the nice things. What was left for her

Rong Jing suddenly laughed softly.

"Mind your public image!" Yun Qianmo chided him with a mix of anger and laughter in her voice as she quietly scolded him.

“Mm.” Rong Jing nodded with a smile, gazing at Yun Qianmo’s eyes filled with deep amusement, his clear gaze brimming with joy that seemed about to overflow. Paired with her poetic and picturesque looks, it was utterly captivating.

When Yun Qianyue's mind flickered, she thought to herself that if Rong Jing were to flirt with a woman, he would certainly succeed every time. She struggled to divert her gaze and warned him sternly: "No flirting with me!" Didn't he see where they were

“So you’ve figured me out!” Rong Jing sighed.

Yun Qianyue couldn’t help but burst into laughter. This man… this man really was...

Night Tianyi looked at the two people standing amidst the thick smoke, with Rong Jing half-hugging Yun Qianyue’s body as he smiled. Yun Qianyue naturally leaned against him without any resistance or stiffness, her face also glowing with a bright smile. It was as if they had been like this for many years. His heart felt a sharp pain; suddenly everything seemed painful to look at. He lowered his eyelashes and his expression turned cold.

Yun Qianyue suddenly felt an extremely cold aura coming from the opposite side, causing her to think of Night Tianyi and immediately stop smiling.

Rong Jing glanced at Night Tianyi; the smile on his face slowly faded as he remained composed and calm.

When one batch of grain burned up and the smoke disappeared, Night Tianyi gave an order: "Bring some of the black ash that was just swept out!"

"Yes!” That commander immediately brought a basket full of ashes to Night Tianyi's side.

“Fourth Brother! Did you see This is the evidence! What color would normally burned ashes be Grain can’t possibly burn into such ash. But look at yesterday’s two grain stores and their burnt ashes, what color are they” Night Tianyi looked at Night Tianyu.

Night Tianyu was visibly shocked; he stopped his sarcastic remarks to ask: “What’s going on here then”

“That would depend on the arsonist!” Night Tianyi turned and looked at Rong Jing, suppressing the cold in his eyes. "Do you think Prince Shi could explain it"

"Prince Shi is merely here for an inspection; how can he take over The Seventh Prince’s ability to compare the color of ash from burned grain suggests that he already knows the answer! Therefore, why don’t the Seventh Prince share his conclusion. I believe everyone would like to hear it," Rong Jing released Yun Qianyue's waist and took away the handkerchief covering her mouth.

Yun Qianyue looked at the burnt grain traces on the ground; one had intact grains while another was completely ash, not a single grain left. She blinked.

"I suspect that these grains were tampered with before reaching the military headquarters in secret. The method of tampering may have been to coat all the grass sacks with some kind of flammable fuel or soaking them in oil. Or even every grain was treated with oil, dried and then bagged," Night Tianyi explained.

"Isn’t that too unlikely Just for two batches of grain" Night Tianyu didn't believe it to be possible.

“Nothing is impossible! Your inability to think of something doesn’t prove others can’t either.” Night Tianyi replied.

“If the grass sacks were coated with some kind of fuel or soaked in oil, wouldn’t the soldiers who moved them have noticed anything different” Night Tianyu still didn't believe it. "Moreover, this isn’t just a couple of bags, but two grain stores with thousands of bags."

“In summary, my analysis is that the grass sacks were coated with some kind of hidden flammable fuel and the grains may have been treated with oil to such an extent that they burned so cleanly. No residue left.” Night Tianyi looked at Rong Jing after finishing his statement. “Prince Shi, do you think my analysis is correct”

"The Seventh Prince’s logic makes sense!" Rong Jing smiled calmly.

Night Tianyu suddenly turned to look at Rong Jing; the disbelief and shock in his eyes disappeared instantly upon seeing Rong Jing's cool and gentle expression. If it were Rong Jing, he would find it possible. Rong Jing always gave a feeling that with him, nothing was impossible.

“If Prince Shi thinks something is reasonable, then this matter must be as such!” Night Tianyi concluded firmly. "This grain was said to have been transported here last autumn and went through many stages and hands. There’s no way to investigate further. I shall report back to His Majesty regarding this matter.”

Rong Jing remained silent.

“Have you all understood now This isn’t a celestial fire! It was an act of sabotage that resulted in such a disaster. If there are any more rumors about the heavenly fire, I will report back to His Majesty and ensure those involved receive severe punishment!" Night Tianyi looked at the commander who mentioned the celestial fire and his 5000 soldiers and shouted.

"Yes!” The 5000 soldiers knelt on the ground without daring to move; their voices were clear, having lost their fear of the heavenly fire.

“Moon, since we have found a lead now, shall we return to the capital” Night Tianyi looked at Yun Qianyue and said gently.

"It's nearly noon now, with the sun high. She can ride in my carriage back into town. The Seventh Prince may proceed ahead!" Rong Jing took over from Night Tianyi, pulled Yun Qianyue’s hand and started walking towards the entrance of the military headquarters.

“Prince Shi is here to inspect at His Majesty's command; yet you’re heading back after just looking at the grain stores” Night Tianyi raised an eyebrow as he looked at Rong Jing.

"The Emperor pities Jing for his poor health and advises me not to overwork myself. The Military Machine Headquarters is so vast, it can't be accomplished overnight; besides, I need to return home daily to take my medicine, which must be freshly boiled with medicinal leaves from our estate, or its efficacy will be lost. Could Seventh Prince really expect me to take medicine here There's no such medicine available for me to drink three times a day here."

Ren Jing paused in his steps and raised an eyebrow at Ye Tianyi.

"Father Emperor instructed me to teach Yue'er. Does it count as overstepping my bounds if the Young Master Jing is now dragging her along" Ye Tianyi asked with a raised brow.

“It’s almost noon! It's merely returning to the city, so does Seventh Prince really want to instruct her on the way back” Ren Jing suddenly smiled. "If I were to claim my husband’s rights in advance because she will eventually marry me in the future, there is nothing wrong with it."

Ye Tianyi's expression finally changed slightly; his eyes narrowed. "Young Master Jing has great confidence! She still has some time before her coming-of-age ceremony, and even if that passes, she remains a daughter of the Cloud Prince’s residence, while you are Young Master Jing of the Glory Prince’s residence. Can it truly be guaranteed that because their two families will marry each other, she will marry you"

“How many impossible things in this world have turned into possible ones! Five years ago, when the whole Blue family was executed and Lady Blue hanged herself, who would have thought Seventh Prince still returned to the capital to be favored by Emperor He turned all impossible situations into possibilities. So what's impossible about her marrying me” Ren Jing smiled faintly.

Ye Tianyi’s face darkened when he mentioned the Blue family and Lady Blue; he was speechless.

Ren Jing, seeing Ye Tianyi silent, pulled Yun Qianyue forward to continue walking.

Ye Tianyi stood still, watching them depart. Suddenly, Ye Tianyu patted Ye Tianyi on the shoulder. "I say, Seventh Brother, do you really like Moon Sister so much Although she is a beautiful woman, her temperament isn't very good; only Young Master Jing can control her. Are you really thinking seriously about her"

Ye Tianyi remained silent.

"She's been corresponding with you for five years! Yet she still treats Young Master Jing so well. I think she has no real feelings for you. Furthermore, even if she had thoughts towards you, would Father Emperor permit her to marry you Don't forget! She is a daughter of the Cloud Prince’s residence; while remembering that she can’t enter the Glory Prince's residence, have you forgotten about the ancestral rule forbidding her from entering the palace and becoming empress" Ye Tianyu spoke in a low voice. "Moreover, the Cloud Prince’s residence has always been Father Emperor’s taboo, something he wants to remove every day..."

"Fourth Brother, you've said quite a lot today; aren’t you thirsty" Ye Tianyi's expression returned and he interrupted Ye Tianyu.

Ye Tianyu stopped speaking, his face stern. "I'm just reminding Seventh Brother not to force anything! Some women are easily obtained, but some are so rare that they can't be caught!"

"Haha, I didn’t know this. So in Fourth Brother's heart, she is one of those rare women" Ye Tianyi suddenly smiled and looked at Ye Tianyu with a deep meaning.

Ye Tianyu’s expression remained unchanged; he rarely spoke so seriously: "How many like her can you find throughout the world Even Princess Ye from South Yi isn’t comparable! She has form but lacks spirit. Once she makes up her mind, nothing stops her. Seventh Brother should know this about her."

"So Fourth Brother sees it clearly! It’s truly admirable!" Ye Tianyi's deep smile faded as he looked in the direction Yun Qianyue and Ren Jing had gone; they were already far away, their figures blocked by military tents. He walked forward slowly, his voice calm and firm: "Then I will make her hit a dead end, wouldn’t she turn back"

Ye Tianyu was stunned.

Ye Tianyi remained silent; the figure in snow-white silk robes gradually faded from view behind military tents in moments.

Upon arriving at the entrance of Military Machine Headquarters, Xian Ge was still waiting there. Seeing them approach hand-in-hand, a delighted expression appeared on his face as he hurriedly pulled up the curtain and secretly thought that once Miss Yun Qianyue and Young Master Jing were well again, it would be his happy days; otherwise, his difficult times would begin. Ren Jing paused, glanced at Bai Zhifeng and Hei Zhifeng obediently waiting with their reins loosened, then turned to Yun Qianyue with a smile: "This horse should indeed be ridden! Not only that, but you must ride it well!"

Yun Qianyue raised her eyebrows. “What do you mean”

"To serve as constant reminder that someone is always thinking of you and wanting to take you away," Ren Jing said with a smile.

Yun Qianyue understood, "So you need to treat me well, not make me angry or sad!"

"Yes, the first few points are simple to do, but I doubt I can achieve the last one." Ren Jing nodded and shook his head. Seeing Yun Qianyue look sideways at him, he suddenly leaned down and kissed her cheek; his voice was slightly hoarse: "I just like to tease you!"

Yun Qianyue’s face blushed as she saw Xian Ge turn away with a red face. She rolled her eyes, pushed Ren Jing with her arm, and said angrily, “Quickly get in the carriage! Didn't you say you'd cook lotus flower-stuffed fish for me Do it when we return!”

"Alright, I'll cook lotus flower-stuffed fish; you do ice cream," Ren Jing smiled as he nodded.

Yun Qianyue gave a light snort and Ren Jing slowly leaned in first to enter the carriage, then pulled Yun Qianyue inside. Once they were seated, the curtains fell down, and with a tone that concealed a hint of laughter, he instructed Xian Ge: "Return to city."

"Yes!" Xian Ge turned his face and stole a glance back at the compartment before whipping the reins; the carriage left Military Machine Headquarters.

Seeing Yun Qianyue get into Ren Jing’s carriage, Bai Zhifeng immediately followed behind. Seeing White Zhifeng leave, Hei Zhifeng wanted to follow too but seeing his master hadn’t come out, he seemed to struggle before following after White Zhifeng.

Rong Jing heard the sound of two horse hooves behind the carriage and suddenly chuckled, "I wonder if the Seventh Prince can be even more generous and give me this black horse."

Yun Qianyue tugged at her lips and glanced at him, "You don’t know what shame is"

"I don't!" Rong Jing shook his head.

"Then what do you know" Yun Qianyue tilted her head to look at him.

"I only know that missing you for one night feels like three autumns," Rong Jing said, pulling Yun Qianyue into his arms and leaning down to kiss the corner of her lips, not giving her a chance to dodge, gently sucking them in.

Yun Qianyue was speechless. Wasn't it just last night that you two didn’t see each other This could only be attributed to youthful hormones being too strong.

Rong Jing released her when he couldn’t get enough, his gaze quietly watching as she panted softly in his arms. Then he lowered his head again, but instead of kissing her, he gently pressed his face against hers, his voice hoarse, "Yun Qianyue, you will marry me, right"

"Right!" Yun Qianyue was touched in her heart; Rong Jing should be a confident person, yet how could he lack confidence

"I can calculate any matter in the world in my palm, but I dare not include you. Why is that" Rong Jing rubbed against Yun Qianyue's face gently and asked softly.

"How should I know!" Yun Qianyue’s heart suddenly softened.

"I don't know either," Rong Jing sighed, his sighs somewhat sad.

"Why not try to include me in your calculations" Yun Qianyue raised her eyebrows; because of the kiss before, her tone was soft and seductive.

"Try it then" Rong Jing’s long eyelashes fluttered twice, suddenly asking, "You can calculate all matters under heaven into the palm of your hand. Did you include me in your calculations"

Yun Qianyue blinked her eyes as well, "Unable to be calculated!"

"Why" Rong Jing picked up a strand of Yun Qianyue’s black hair and asked gently.

"Because you're too hard to calculate!" Yun Qianyue rolled her eyes at him.

Rong Jing was stunned for a moment, then suddenly buried his head in the crook of Yun Qianyue's neck and laughed softly.

Yun Qianyue felt the slight vibrations from his chest, his soft laughter like a gentle spring snowfall. Spring snow falls, and winter梅花綻放。她也不禁露出笑意。容景算計天下萬事,她也算計天下萬事,但唯獨算計不了她,她也唯獨算計不了他。這便是真愛了嗎?

This is true love, isn't it If you fall in love with someone, there can be no room for scheming in your eyes or heart!

The carriage slowly continued on its journey as the laughter of the two people blended together.
