Resisting the Wind and Splendor

Chapter 350 He still harbored doubts.

Chu Yue felt a tightness in her chest, and her eyes involuntarily welled up with tears.

Seeing her like this, Huo Qing couldn't help but smile and say, "Silly girl, what's there to be sad about? He's still alive, he's always been here with me."

She pointed to her chest, where her heart was located.

Chu Yueli stepped forward and took her hand.

Huo Qing's fingers were very cold.

Chu Yueli knew that her third aunt was always comforting others, but in reality, no one could truly comfort her.

"Ah Li, don't think too much. Although your third aunt is heartbroken, I am not without ambition at this moment."

"What are Third Aunt's pursuits?" Huo Qing's question surprised Chu Yueli.

Huo Qing looked at her and suddenly smiled: "Taking good care of Father, watching over you and Xiao He, and protecting the Duke's Mansion—this is my lifelong pursuit."

Chu Yueli rarely cries.

But after leaving Huo Qing's Langyue Pavilion, she almost couldn't hold back her tears.

My third aunt is truly an extraordinary woman.

It turns out that a love can truly be remembered for a lifetime.

But she seems to have forgotten how she felt when she liked Lu Fengjin, forgotten what that feeling was like.

Looking back now, it was nothing more than a dream that made me feel nauseous.

Perhaps there were beautiful memories, but ultimately his fickleness shattered that dream.

"Why are you so sentimental, Miss? Actually, Prince Mo treats you very well." Although Zisu didn't go in to disturb them, she had overheard their conversation while standing guard outside the door.

She perhaps understood how the young lady felt at that moment.

"Is it because you've been hurt before that you're afraid to easily invest yourself in another relationship? But no matter how careful you are, when the time is right, love will come."

"What do you know, you brat who doesn't even have a man she likes?" Chu Yueli stretched out her long finger and tapped her forehead.

Zisu winced in pain and couldn't help but glare at her resentfully, saying, "Who said I don't have a man I like?"

"You have a man you like?" Chu Yueli felt a little guilty. She had been too busy these past few years and had paid less attention to Zisu. She didn't even know that Zisu had someone she liked.

Zisu just smiled and didn't say anything.

Just as she stepped out of Langyue Pavilion, Chu Yi hurried over: "Miss, Prince Mo has left."

"He's gone?" For some reason, a piece of my heart felt inexplicably empty.

Chu Yueli frowned deeply: "Are you... feeling better?"

"It seems that things are not well, but news has come from outside the city that another secret stronghold for manufacturing thunder bombs has been discovered. His Majesty... has ordered Prince Mo to go and suppress the bandits."

"The Emperor still has doubts about him after all!" Chu Yue's heart skipped a beat.

The one who was caught was Prince Mo's third uncle. Although the confession they finally produced stated that the third uncle was also investigating the matter, he was a marquis with a title but no real power. When would it be his turn to investigate cases?

The Emperor did not pursue the matter only out of consideration for Prince Mo and Consort Yu, but that does not mean he had no suspicions.

Where is my older brother?

"In Qinghui Pavilion."

Chu Yueli immediately went to Qinghui Pavilion.

Strangely enough, after arriving at the Duke's mansion, Tuoba Liuli's emotions stabilized considerably. She even took the initiative to greet Chu Yueli after learning that he had arrived.

Chu Xiaohe could see the anxiety hidden between Chu Yueli's brows. After comforting Tuoba Liuli for a few words, he followed Chu Yueli and quickly walked into the courtyard.

"Are you worried about Prince Mo, Ali? Hasn't the poison been completely cleared up?"
