C214 Visit Zuo Yuanyuan

Only Cypress Pine could survive through the long and torturous winter.

After Zuo Yuan came out from the inner room, she walked along the long corridor and looked at the tall pine and cypress trees proudly standing amidst the pure white snow. She couldn't help but think of the soldiers who were stationed at the border and fought on the battlefield with their blood boiling, thinking of Wu Shan who was fighting for his country, and thinking of Duan Yunfei who was about to step onto a path filled with danger.

Zuo Yuan often thought that if she had been born in a handsome general's house, would she have fought like Wu Shan and the others, bravely rushing forward and killing with all her might in this difficult time. It must be.

Unfortunately, he wouldn't be able to achieve it in this lifetime. She was destined to continue living her current life, marry someone in front of her parents, and live the life of a couple.

Although the Minister of the Left and the Lady Zuo would definitely respect Zuo Yuanyuan's wishes when it came to marriage, her life was still going according to the rules.

Now that the war was on the verge of breaking out, Zuo Chong should not have been thinking about love. But Jin Country's enemy was currently the Golden Horde Kingdom, so there was no guarantee that one day, the Jin Country and the Xiliang would clash head to head on against each other and face each other on the battlefield. Then, what would happen between Zuo Yuan and Xiu Huang then? Maybe Zuo Chong shouldn't have started a relationship?

"Swish, swish." A strong gust of wind blew the snow off the tree. The snowball fell onto the ground with a thud, pulling Zuo Yuanyuan back from her reverie.

Thinking that Mu Chuyang was still waiting for his at this time, Zuo Yuan's footsteps unconsciously became faster.

"Miss, please slow down." The steward was too old, he couldn't keep up with Zuo Yuanyuan's speed, so he struggled to walk.

"It's alright. Steward, you can take your time. I'll go over first." Zuo Yuan was very old, so he told the butler to walk slowly. There was no need to rush, nor was there a need to follow closely behind him.

Although Zuo Yuan had spoken, the steward had a high position in the house. Compared to the servants, he was more of an elder to Zuo Yuan, and the elders treated the steward with respect. However, the rules were still there. How could Zuo Yuan follow them to the lobby? Yet, the steward was walking at a leisurely pace. How could he walk at a leisurely pace?

So, the steward tried his best to keep up with Zuo Yuan's footsteps. However, when they reached the lobby, the steward felt his legs tremble slightly. What was worse was that the steward's back was sweating even more during this cold season.

"You're here?" Mu Chuyang waited in the lobby for a while, bored out of his mind. In this period of time, his mind was full of how to reconcile with Duan Yunfei and how to express his desire to follow her to the border.

For Mu Chuyang, the most important thing right now was to resolve the conflict between him and Duan Yunfei. The root of this conflict was not because of the feelings Duan Yunfei had for him before.

Mu Chuyang understood very clearly that if he wanted to solve this problem, it would no longer be a problem. The most important thing was to be honest with Duan Yunfei. Mu Chuyang explained his jealous heart, and Duan Yunfei was also able to explain just how much she felt about Mu Chuyang. This way, perhaps the grudge in Mu Chuyang's heart could be worn out a little.

Of course, it was probably impossible to completely eradicate them. At least for now, it was impossible. When he thought about how there were plenty of other people in Duan Yunfei's heart before this, Mu Chuyang felt a little regretful that he didn't express his feelings earlier.

It was likely that he had not seen Duan Yunfei for more than half a month, and had no idea how Duan Yunfei was doing right now either. The moment he thought that Duan Yunfei was going to leave the capital tomorrow, Mu Chuyang also regretted throwing a tantrum like that day in Red Luan Palace.

If they had spoken properly that day, they wouldn't have missed so many days. If Mu Chuyang knew that things would turn out like this, he definitely wouldn't have let Duan Yunfei settle the matter of the border by himself.

The only thing Mu Chuyang could do was to not let Duan Yunfei go to the border by himself. Even if Prince Mu and Prince's Wife Mo might not agree, he still had to accompany Duan Yunfei to the border.

Three years after Mu Chuyang was born, he spent his days on the border, but nothing happened at that time, so he didn't know what kind of life that was. Only, when they heard what the Prince's Wife Mo had to say later, they felt that it was not that easy. Previously, when Prince Mu went to the border once again, he had also deeply experienced the hardships of the soldiers.

Duan Yunfei had always yearned for a military life, but in the end, Duan Yunfei had always lived under Yuwen Di's protection. Even if it wasn't so, because of the identity of the Thirteenth Princess, no one could bully her.

But in the army camp, it was not like that. Soldiers focused on strength, which meant, Duan Yunfei could only use martial arts. But how could he prove her strength? Was he really going to make her compete with the Golden Horde Kingdom on the battlefield? Mu Chuyang was unwilling.

Mu Chuyang did not understand that if he were to truly accompany Duan Yunfei to the border, what could he do for her? The military camp was not a place for them to talk about love and love. It was a place where wind and snow bloomed. It was such a solemn and scary environment.

Furthermore, Mu Chuyang currently did not know how Duan Yunfei would travel to that place either. If she were to head there privately, then Mu Chuyang could continue to protect Duan Yunfei. If Duan Yunfei followed the large army, Mu Chuyang's existence would seem to be slightly inconvenient.

Maybe Zuo Yuan could answer all of these for Mu Chuyang.

"Chu Yang, what are you thinking? I was so engrossed in my thoughts. " Zuo Yuan sat in front of Mu Chuyang, but after a while, she did not see Mu Chuyang continue speaking. Zuo Yuan then extended her hand out to shake Mu Chuyang a little, but she did not see any reaction from Mu Chuyang.

Zuo Yuan pushed Mu Chuyang again, and Mu Chuyang finally reacted.

"What's wrong?" Mu Chuyang was confused, he did not know why Zuo Yuanyuan suddenly pushed him.

"What's wrong with you, right? I called out to you so many times, yet you didn't react at all. "If I don't push you, I don't know how long you'll be in a daze for."

"Is that so?"

"That's right. If you don't believe me, ask the butler."

Zuo Yuan did not know that Mu Chuyang had already known that Duan Yunfei was leaving the capital the next day. At this time, she still wanted to hide from him as much as possible, so she still spoke to Mu Chuyang with the same tone as usual, concealing the reluctance she had towards Duan Yunfei.

Mu Chuyang looked at Zuo Yuan, trying to see something from her face. He could also feel that Zuo Yuan was hiding something from him.

"Zuo Yuan, don't you have something to say to me?"

Zuo Chong's heart skipped a beat. Did Mu Chuyang know about what happened to Duan Yunfei after he said that?
