"Crown prince, take a break," Cong Nan advised, "Fourth Lady has sent a letter saying not to let you travel day and night."
"If you become thin, Fourth Lady will definitely be angry when she sees you."
Lu Ruojiang heard this and looked at the guards in the team, seeing that they were all covered in dust and looking tired, he knew he was not much better off.
"Okay, then let's rest for the night and not rush on the road."
"Thank you, crown prince."
Even battle-hardened men couldn't bear such long journeys, but of course, if Lu Ruojiang insisted, they wouldn't fall behind. Resting would be the best option if possible.
When everyone was setting up camp, Lu Ruojiang went to the river. Despite the harsh conditions, Lu Ruojiang wanted to clean up a bit so that when he saw Qin Liangwan, he wouldn't look so disheveled. However, Lu Ruojiang overestimated his own body and underestimated the coldness of the river water. In just a short while, Lu Ruojiang showed signs of catching a cold. Cong Nan scolded, "Why does the crown prince need to be so hasty? When we arrive at Yan County, we can wash up first before seeking Fourth Lady. What's the rush to skip washing up?"
Lu Ruojiang got to know Cong Nan because he cared about his own health. Even though he was momentarily offended, he didn't mind. He gave a bitter smile and said, "Cong Nan, please say a few words less. I'm regretting it too." Cong Nan followed his advice and didn't speak, focusing on brewing medicine for Lu Ruojiang. Smelling the lingering bitter medicine scent, Lu Ruojiang looked up at the starry sky, wanting to clear his mind, but unexpectedly found himself thinking about the past.
*
It was Lu Ruojiang's birthday, and father Lu wanted to celebrate for him, but he didn't want to pay attention. He left the house and wandered aimlessly in the streets.
It's only because Lu Ruojiang has the token of Zheng King's Mansion, otherwise he would have been thrown into prison by the patrolling guards.
It should be a subconscious choice. When Lu Ruojiang came to his senses, he was already outside the Qin Mansion. Perhaps it was a case of telepathy, as Qin Liangwan, who had just finished a day of training, also thought of Lu Ruojiang and came to the same place. The two were only separated by a wall, unaware of each other's presence, until they both sighed involuntarily.
"Liangwan?"
"Ruojiang?"
The two exclaimed in surprise.
"Why are you not sleeping in the middle of the night and came to Qin Mansion?" Qin Liangwan asked.
"You also went out in the middle of the night?" Lu Ruojiang retorted at first, then said, "Today is my birthday, I don't want to spend it with those insincere people, so I unconsciously walked to the outside of Qin Mansion."
"I was punished again today, feeling frustrated and couldn't sleep, so I got up for a walk."
As the conversation fell silent, the two remained quiet for a while. Just when Lu Ruojiang thought Qin Liangwan had already left, she suddenly heard her voice, "Look, what a beautiful starry sky, what a beautiful moonlight!" Lu Ruojiang instinctively looked up, the bright moonlight was gentle as water, and the starry night sky seemed like a gorgeous garment draped by the heavens over the moon, dreamy and beautiful.
"It is indeed beautiful," Lu Ruojiang agreed.
Qin Liangwan suddenly felt happy, "Seeing such a beautiful scenery, and having friends to share it with, I suddenly feel that nothing is really that bad."
"The sky hasn't fallen, and the earth is gradually stabilizing. We will eventually be able to control our own destiny, as long as we live well."
Lu Ruojiang smiled and said, "You're right, that really woke me up from my dream!" The two of them chatted under the beautiful night sky for a long time, and that not-so-warm night left a deep memory in Lu Ruojiang's heart. Even now, Lu Ruojiang still smiles at the memory, when both he and Liangwan were still young.
If they were to meet now, there would definitely be some turmoil during the process. They are still fortunate to have met the right person at the right time and seized the opportunity, not letting the other slip away from their embrace.
