Princess Xiangsi - Chapter 182
Qingyun was taken aback, and looked at Wuxia suspiciously. Recalling the expression on her face a few days ago, she gradually guessed what was going on. Qingyun raised her eyes to look at Jun Wuhen not far away. He was still dressed in black, and his appearance was still handsome, but his thin face had a more weathered look, and he had lost some of his original arrogance.
Qingyun lowered her eyes, a mix of indescribable emotions churning within her.
Situ Xingyun's eyes darkened, and his face showed slight displeasure. However, his expression softened slightly when he saw Qingyun's indifferent expression.
Li Ge remained calm, though slightly surprised. He glanced briefly at Jun Wuhen not far away before returning his gaze to the scenery outside the car.
"Your Majesty, I haven't seen Cousin Wuhen for a long time. May I invite Cousin Wuhen to Fengbing Palace to catch up?" Yu Wuxia bit her lower lip lightly, her clear eyes sparkling.
Normally, no man could refuse the request of such a beautiful woman.
Situ Xingyun's expression darkened slightly, and he did not reply.
When Qingyun noticed the sadness in Wuxia's eyes, she said, "Wuxia hasn't been back to the palace for almost two years. It's rare for her to see her cousin, so Xingyun should be understanding and let the cousins catch up for a few days."
“Extreme emotions can be bad for the fetus. Your Majesty, Consort Yu was just overjoyed. If she becomes too disappointed later, it will have a significant impact on the fetus,” Li Ge said softly after exchanging a glance with Qing Yun.
After a long silence, Situ Xingyun finally said, "Since Xue'er and my brother have said so, if I were to refuse Consort Yu again, wouldn't I become a sinner for all eternity? Go then."
With no time to rejoice, she walked to Jun Wuhen's side with the help of her maid. After whispering a few words, Qingyun and the others saw Jun Wuhen nod. Then Jun Wuhen lifted the wheel with one hand and sent the carriage and driver away.
After walking over, Jun Wuhen actually clasped his hands in greeting to Situ Xingyun and said, "Your Majesty."
Qingyun was taken aback, her eyelashes fluttering upwards as she looked up and stared intently at Jun Wuhen. She was surprised to find that Jun Wuhen, who used to be so arrogant and unruly in the martial arts world, had now become so polite.
Years have passed, and everything has changed. She is no longer herself, and he is no longer the same person. Who can truly understand all of this?
Qingyun sighed inwardly, withdrew her gaze, and looked out the window again.
At that moment, Jun Wuhen's gaze fell on the woman in white by the window, and his heart ached terribly.
At this moment, the coachman asked, "Your Majesty, may we depart now?"
"Let's set off."
There weren't many seats in the carriage to begin with. Situ Xingyun and Li Ge sat on one side, while Yu Wuxia and Qingyun sat on the other. Jun Wuhen hesitated, unsure where he should sit.
“My Lord, please come sit over here!” Li Ge pointed to the soft couch next to him.
Jun Wuhen nodded and sat down.
The carriage shop returned to calm, but this time it seemed a little different, with an added sense of awkwardness and strangeness.
Three outstanding men sitting together—that's a scene that's quite enviable. But three men who have fallen in love with the same woman sitting together—the atmosphere becomes far too oppressive.
Since becoming pregnant, Wuxia had been particularly sleepy. The carriage had just started moving, and before she could even exchange a few words with Jun Wuhen, she felt drowsy. She leaned her head against the window and fell asleep.
After losing sleep, Qingyun felt even more suffocated by the thin air in the carriage.
She tried very hard to ignore the three lines of gaze coming straight at her from the other side.
A strange thought suddenly surfaced in Qingyun's mind. Of the three men opposite her, two were her ex-husbands, and the other was her future husband. Could she be considered someone who constantly had romantic encounters in her life?
A romantic encounter?! Qingyun's lips twitched. How could she use that word?!
"Pfft!" Qingyun suddenly burst out laughing.
The presence of those three gazes became even stronger.
Qingyun's smile froze instantly, and she could only try to explain herself by saying, "Yes, the sky is very blue."
The words had barely left her mouth when Qingyun immediately regretted them. What on earth had she said? It seemed like Tianlan had absolutely nothing to do with her laughing out loud!
But the three men opposite them thought they were closely related and said in unison, "Yes, the sky is very blue."
As soon as the words were spoken, Situ Xingyun, Jun Wuhen, and Li Ge were all stunned.
Immediately, the carriage filled with the smell of gunpowder.
To avoid being killed in the gunpowder that could explode at any moment, Qingyun decided to stop talking and learn from Wuxia to close her eyes and go to sleep.
Seeing this, the three men could only withdraw their gazes and stop bothering Qingyun.
Li Ge was dressed simply and naturally in a white shirt. He rested one hand on the windowsill, his gaze fixed on the scenery outside. He quietly watched the passing blades of grass and trees.
Today, Situ Xingyun was dressed in a blue brocade robe, noble and dignified without losing his status. He closed his eyes and concentrated, and the aura he exuded made people dare not look directly at his divine might.
Jun Wuhen's attire remained unchanged in black, with fiery red petals on his lapel seemingly burning fiercely in black flames, drawing attention wherever he went.
Jun Wuhen took his first look at the white-clad man beside him. That night at the detached palace, the candlelight was too dim, and he hadn't seen him clearly. Now, seeing him, he couldn't help but admire him; he was indeed a celestial being, a rare find in this world.
He glanced at Situ Xingyun again. That man was hard to ignore. He held the power of the world, stood firmly on the throne, and his natural aura of ruling the world was unforgettable.
Suddenly, Jun Wuhen remembered a sentence that Qingyun had said to him a long time ago when she was still Fengxue: "If I were Fengxue, then the one connected to me would definitely be Situ Xingyun. If I were Qingyun, then the one connected to me would definitely be Lige, and it would definitely not be you—Jun Wuhen."
Jun Wuhen gave a bitter smile and lowered his eyes.
He was jealous of the two brothers! One had the heart of the past, the other the heart of the present. And he, whether in the past, present, or future, would have no part in it anymore.
The sky was a clear, bright blue, and the carriage continued to move slowly forward, but a faint sense of melancholy lingered within.
