Clouds and Moon Shadow

Chapter 411 He...married someone else!

Mu Yun Chu held Gu Qing Yue's soft body in his arms. He thought that he might not see her for three or four months. He suddenly felt as if a piece of his heart had been hollowed out. He was very flustered and reluctant to part with her.

The next moment, he hugged Gu Qingyue tightly, then let go and picked her up horizontally.

"Mu Yun Chu!" Gu Qing Yue was startled. They were in the garden, and there were servants in the distance!

She hugged Mu Yun Chu's neck, lowered her voice, and tried to get down from his embrace.

"Don't move," Mu Yun Chu said in a low, suppressed voice.

The next instant, Mu Yun Chu leaped into the air and disappeared into the darkness.

Gu Qingyue opened her eyes and found that the two of them were already standing on the top floor of Tingfeng Pavilion, the highest building in the backyard of the Li Prince's Mansion.

The Listening Wind Pavilion is three stories high and faces the rippling lotus lake.

It was nighttime. Looking around, all one could see were the scattered lights of the Prince Li's mansion and the lake reflecting the moonlight, a breathtakingly beautiful sight!

The surroundings were filled with the fragrance of flowers and the chirping of insects, a tranquil and peaceful atmosphere.

Gu Qingyue squinted, opened her arms, and felt the refreshing night breeze. For a moment, she was stunned.

This is an excellent vantage point for enjoying the view. Imagine how beautiful it would be during the day, with flowers blooming all around, the distant blue waves, a gentle breeze, and the fragrance of flowers filling the air.

"This is my favorite place to be," Mu Yun Chu's voice rang in Gu Qing Yue's ears.

Gu Qingyue smiled and said, "I like it too."

A pair of long arms wrapped around Gu Qingyue's waist from behind.

"I'm glad you like it. After we get married, we'll come here to enjoy the scenery every day." Mu Yun Chu's voice was filled with joy.

Gu Qingyue chuckled, "You really know how to enjoy life. The location of this pavilion is perfect. It's great for enjoying the breeze, daydreaming, drinking tea, and appreciating the scenery in all four seasons."

"Yes, it was my second brother who designed it for me," Mu Yun Chu's voice suddenly sounded a little muffled.

According to ancestral rules, princes must leave the palace to establish their own residences and offices at the age of fifteen. At the age of fifteen, he was still on the battlefield in Lizhou. Therefore, when the Imperial Household Department was built, the opinion of Prince Kang was consulted. Many parts of the design of this residence were thanks to Prince Kang.

Gu Qingyue thought of that aloof and composed man and felt a rare pity. "How is Prince Kang's leg? I've been too busy lately to visit him."

Mu Yun Chu's laughter was soft. He whispered in her ear, "His internal injuries are all healed. His legs can support him and he can stand up for a while now. A Yue, thank you. You gave Second Brother hope, and you gave me hope too."

"Really? Let's go take a look." Upon hearing this progress, Gu Qingyue was overjoyed and immediately wanted to go to the Kang Prince's residence. She was very happy that the Kang Prince had made such progress in his recovery.

But Mu Yun Chu held her waist very tightly, and she couldn't move.

"My second brother went to the South Lake Villa and isn't in the capital. I'll visit him on my way. You should wait until he returns to the capital before you go to see him. He's very grateful to you and told me to treat you well."

Mu Yun Chu nuzzled Gu Qing Yue's temple, and the two remained silent for a moment.

"Take care of yourself and don't let your guard down. That King of Nanzhao is probably not someone to be trifled with. Also, there's Yue Zhiqi, the Great Wizard, and oh yes, Princess Chaoyue. I heard she's causing quite a stir in her residence. You need to make sure she doesn't cause any trouble on the way..."

Gu Qingyue went on and on, giving instructions on everything she could think of, still feeling uneasy.

She only came back to her senses when she felt Mu Yun Chu stroking her cheek.

"Anyway, don't make me worry. If something happens to you and you can't protect yourself, I'll..."

Gu Qingyue pondered what to say to scare him.

"What do you do?"

Mu Yun Chu couldn't hold back any longer this time. He laughed freely, pulled the woman into his arms, and lifted her chin.

Gu Qingyue suddenly smiled slyly, "Then... I'll marry someone else!"

The voice was soft and gentle, like a murmur, like a whisper, like a feather, stirring Mu Yun Chu's already fragile rationality.

The next instant, her lips were covered, conquering all before her. The man's cool breath lingered around her nose, causing Gu Qingyue's initial desire to regain the upper hand to gradually vanish into thin air.

When Gu Qingyue came to her senses again, she was already in her room at Feiyuexuan.

The bed curtains fell, and Gu Qingyue's dress was thrown under the bed. Next to the dress was a black robe.

Inside the bed curtains, Mu Yun Chu held Gu Qing Yue tightly, showering her with hot kisses like raindrops.

From her smooth forehead to her pert nose, to her delicate earlobes, to her cherry blossom-like lips, her gaze lingered, burning like a blazing fire, enveloping Gu Qingyue tightly.

Gu Qingyue's mind went blank, her consciousness was somewhat dazed, she only knew that she seemed to be immersed in some kind of mysterious realm, a little trembling, a little floating, a little weak, and a little unaware of what day it was.

"Ah Yue, I'm starting to miss you now, what should I do?"

Mu Yun Chu's hot breath brushed against Gu Qing Yue's ear. He couldn't help but hug Gu Qing Yue's delicate body tightly. He wanted to merge her into himself. It seemed that only in this way could he take her with him to any place he wanted to go and do any thing he wanted to do.

He wanted to never be separated from his Ah Yue.

Upon hearing this, Gu Qingyue opened her hazy eyes, which held a pool of clear, deep water.

"I missed you too," Gu Qingyue said softly, her breath slightly ragged, as she reached out and wrapped her arms around Mu Yunchu's neck.

"Ah Yue!" Mu Yun Chu's heart trembled.

He lowered his head and kissed those soft lips again...

What happened next is self-evident.

It's easy to imagine how reluctant lovers who are about to part ways will be.

Gu Qingyue only knew that it was another night she wanted to punch someone...

On the morning of the third day, Mu Yun Chu obeyed the imperial decree and escorted the Nanzhao delegation and Princess Chaoyue's carriage to Nanzhao.

Gu Qingyue stood on a teahouse in the distance, watching Mu Yun Chu ride a black steed, his posture upright, leading the group further and further away. That tall, dark figure made Gu Qingyue feel a dense, reluctant emotion well up in her heart.

Until the massive procession disappeared into the distance, until it was no longer visible.

Gu Qingyue then returned to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion.

Also leaving at the same time was his third brother, Gu Yuanming.

He and Mu Yun Chu brought the Nanzhao delegation back together when they arrived, and now that they were leaving, they naturally had to fulfill their duty and complete the escort mission.

Of course, Princess Lianfu, who was to become the Eighth Prince's consort, stayed behind to prepare for the marriage alliance three months later.

This was not something Gu Qingyue was concerned about.

What does this have to do with her?

Presumably, the Eighth Prince and Princess Lianfu will not want to thank her for being their matchmaker.

Next, Gu Qingyue gave Zhang Xubai two more acupuncture treatments and used healing energy twice, and he remembered many things.

But he still couldn't remember why he was under a spell or why he lost his memory.

Most importantly, he couldn't remember who his wife was or what she looked like.
