"It's God's will!" Xia Younan couldn't help but sigh, "I knew God wouldn't be so cruel. You two loved each other so much, how could God bear to let you be separated by the Yin and Yang?"

Ye Shiqing also looked out at the blue sky and sighed, "Yes, thank God for mercy."

"Princess, that Bei Jin..."

"Give it, give it, give it!" Xia Younan agreed hurriedly, "Silly girl, Bei Jin is your little sister. You grew up together and depended on each other. It's only natural that she should continue to stay by your side.

"Don't worry, I'll tell her when I get back and ask her to pack up and go to the palace right away."

"Thank you, but is it really okay for you to give Bei Jin to me?" Ye Qiandai felt a little embarrassed.

Xia Younan waved his hands repeatedly, "Bei Jin is not here, but I still have Lu Xiuyuan, Chan En, Zhu Li, Xiong Fei, Yin Xue, and many, many other brothers.

"And you only have Lu Shian. He is very busy and there will inevitably be times when he is too busy with government affairs to be with you. How lonely will you be without a close companion?

"Just let Bei Jin come back to you. If I miss her, I will come to the palace to play with you."

After hearing what she said, Ye Shiqing no longer hesitated, smiled, and praised her happily: "You are such a considerate girl."

"Must-have." Xia Younan gave her another big hug.

"Qing'er~" The two girls were talking and laughing when Lu Shian's voice came from the door.

His injuries had not yet fully healed, his face was still slightly pale, his hands were on his waist, and his body was still a little unstable.

Ye Shiqing hurried over to support him, frowning and complaining: "Why did you get out of bed? The wound on your waist hasn't healed yet. What if you pull it?"

Lu Shian held her delicate hands and complained, "I missed you. You've been out for so long and you didn't come to see me."

Ye Shiqing's face was full of black lines, "I just came out of your bedroom less than 50 minutes ago..."

"It feels like a long time since we last met!" Lu Shian looked at her seriously, with a hint of coquettishness in his tone.

Ye Shiqing patted him and said angrily, "Don't talk nonsense. Didn't you see that your friends are coming?"

Lu Shian blinked, looked at Xia Younan, and raised his lips with a smile, "Welcome."

Xia Younan smiled from ear to ear, stepped forward and bowed to him, "Congratulations, congratulations to our emperor for getting the beauty back."

Lu Shian raised his eyebrows, his eyes were quite proud, “Got it? Look at my Qing’er, isn’t she much gentler than you?”

Xia Younan chuckled and nodded in agreement, "Yes, yes, I have seen it. She is indeed beautiful and gentle. No wonder you have been thinking about her for so many years."

"That's right." Lu Shian looked proud and ignored her. He slowly opened his palm towards Ye Shiqing, and an exquisite bell appeared in his palm like magic.

"Ah~" Ye Shiqing opened her eyes wide and cried out softly, snatched the bell from his hand, and her eyes filled with tears of excitement.

"Oh my God, this is my bell. It's the bell you gave me when I was a child. How come it's here with you?"

Lu Shian put his arm around her shoulders, looked at Xia Younan again, and replied with a smile: "Princess Yu Nan gave it to me. She said she found it under your pillow and guessed it was a gift from me, so she put it away and gave it to me.

"I just remembered this, and I couldn't wait to bring it to you."

Ye Shiqing suddenly realized, holding the bell in her hand, she thanked Xia Younan profusely, "Thank you, thank you so much, this bell is the most important thing to me, it is worth more than ten thousand taels of gold.

"I thought I would never see it again, but I didn't expect to find it again."

Xia Younan smiled and waved his hands, "What are you thanking me for? This was originally yours, and now it's just being returned to its original owner."

"Thank you, thank you. It's almost noon. Don't leave. I'll treat you to a full banquet."

Ye Shiqing sincerely invited her, holding the bell to her chest, and was so happy that she didn't know what to do.

Xia Younan shook his head and refused, with a worried look on his face. "I appreciate your kindness, but I won't eat. I have to go see Yanluo now. She doesn't seem to be well recently."

When Lu Yanluo was mentioned, the smiles on Lu Shian and Ye Shiqing's faces gradually disappeared, replaced by traces of sorrow.

Ye Shiqing raised her hand and twisted Lu Shian's arm, saying angrily, "It's all your fault. You didn't let Yanluo leave the palace, causing the girl to be distracted and unable to eat or drink all day.

"She was already small to begin with, and now she's even more frail and weak. You're a brother, but you don't care about your sister at all."

Lu Shian sighed heavily, his brows knitted tightly together, "I only have this one sister, I have loved her since she was little, how can I not love her?

"But I really can't let her do whatever she wants this time. She and that Su Yu have very different statuses, so they must not have any relationship. Otherwise, the damage she suffers will be even worse than it is now."

Alas, to be honest, he underestimated his sister's thoughts.

He originally thought that she and Su Yu just had a crush on each other, and it should be fine if he cut his losses in time.

But since Yanluo was banned from leaving the palace, the girl seemed like a different person. She had no appetite, cried at the slightest provocation, and had become visibly thinner, which made his heart bleed.

Only then did he realize that something was wrong. Yanluo's feelings for Su Yu might be far beyond his imagination.

But what can we do? Su Yu is Lu Xiuyuan's man!

He knew very well that Lu Xiuyuan was not a law-abiding person. He was ambitious and wanted to rule the world, and sooner or later there would be a huge conflict between him and him.

What would Yanluo do then? How would she choose between her brother and her lover? No matter which choice she made, she would be in agony.

What's more, he was not sure whether Su Yu had bad intentions. If he was just using Yanluo to bring him down, how cruel would that be to Yanluo?

No matter what, he was determined not to let that silly girl have anything to do with Su Yu again!

Xia Younan knew what he meant, but it was not easy to interrupt him. He shrugged and said goodbye to them, "I'll go see her first, you guys get busy."

"I'm going too." Ye Shiqing glared at Lu Shian and followed him.

In the Yuli Palace, five or six palace maids and eunuchs surrounded Lu Yanluo's door.

They were holding all kinds of food in their hands and knocking on the closed door anxiously, calling out to the people in the room one after another.

But there was no movement in the room, as if it was an empty house.

Xia Younan and Ye Shiqing walked over and asked curiously, "Is Yanluo in there? Why doesn't she open the door?"

The servants bowed to the two, and a maid replied with tears in her eyes, "The princess refuses to eat again. She hasn't eaten well these days.

"Sometimes I would only eat a few bites when I was extremely hungry, and then I would lock myself in the room and stare blankly. It was really frustrating."

Xia Younan frowned and took the tray full of food from her hand, "You guys go down first, the queen and I will persuade her."

After the servants left, Xia Younan freed one hand to push open the door and walked in with Ye Shiqing.

The bedroom was not big but clean and cozy. The two of them looked over the poetic screen and saw Lu Yanluo sitting on the bed with her head up in a daze.
