Shen Qiuhua became wide-eyed as she stared at Shen Qiuhui. She wanted to confirm if she had heard correctly. Her heart even pounded, and she could not remain calm.
Shen Qiuhui composed himself and found his voice, saying, “The prince’s name is Lan Ruozhu, and he has a trusted subordinate named Blue Eagle. Blue Eagle follows Prince Lan Ruozhu wherever he goes and protects him.
“Blue Eagle is a Shadow Guard that Princess Lan had nurtured. He’s also young and grew up with Prince Lan Ruozhu and Princess Lan. They have a profound relationship with each other.”
As the patriarch of the Shen family, Shen Qiuhui had information channels. Therefore, he knew of such things.
Shen Qiuhua was shocked. She never expected her daughter to acknowledge the prince as her adopted brother. Moreover, Lan Ruozhu had acknowledged Shen Qiuhua and Su Fengmao as his Godparents.
The Su siblings even treated Lan Ruozhu as their brother. After all, Lan Ruozhu was an excellent young man who was cultured and approachable. An ordinary family could not educate such an excellent person.
Lan Ruozhu had an extraordinary identity, but Shen Qiuhua had never considered it. She simply recognized Lan Ruozhu as her own.
Su Wenxiu trembled. His heart pounded when he heard his mother and uncle’s conversation. The news was too shocking for him. “Why didn’t I think he could be Prince Lan Ruozhu? I had even addressed him as Brother Ruozhu.’
Lan Ruozhu had stayed with the Su family for a while. Su Wenxiu felt the family was even more harmonious when Lan Ruozhu was around. The former grew excited when he considered his conversations with Lan Ruozhu.
‘Brother Ruozhu is the legendary His Highness?’
Even though Su Wenxiu lived in Su Teng Village, he had heard the townsfolk discussing Prince Lan Ruozhu. They always mentioned how talented he was and how intelligent Princess Lan was.
Su Wenxiu knew Lan Ruozhu was someone of high status that ordinary folks would never meet. Therefore, he only listened to the villagers and never expected to meet Lan Ruozhu.
He even ate and chatted with Lan Ruozhu, calling him Brother Ruozhu. Su Wenxiu was in disbelief.
Shen Qiuhua felt confused, thinking, ‘That’s His Highness! What should 1 say to him?’
Even though she was the young miss of the Shen family and had a noble status, a prominent family like the Shens could not compare to a prince.
The deceased royal’s mansion was hereditary, and the ancestors of the residence had fought with Emperor Taizu. Strictly speaking, Lan Ruozhu’s ancestors had conquered more than half of Chu Country.
Many commoners knew about Lan Ruozhu and the Wei army. However, they did not know about the emperor, the crown prince, and the princes.
Shen Qiuhui was excited. After all, people rarely saw Lan Ruozhu because he was in poor health in the past. Shen Qiuhui and the Shen family had only met Lan Ruozhu once, when the emperor requested Lan Ruozhu’s attendance.
However, Shen Qiuhui had never met Wei Jin’an because the latter was always guarding the borders. Lan Ruozhu, Wei Jin’an, and the deceased Princess Lan Ruobing were legendary figures in the people’s hearts.
Su Fengmao was stunned as his jaw almost hit the ground. He could hardly return to his senses. He was even shocked after learning about his wife’s true identity.
Before he could digest that information, Lan Ruozhu appeared. Su Fengmao’s heart pounded as it turned out his wife and Lan Ruozhu had noble statuses. Meanwhile, Su Fengmao was born and raised in the countryside.
His expression was calm as he recalled his past. Old Madam Su and Old Master Su told Su Fengmao that he had disappeared for a few years when he was young. He had even forgotten some things when he returned.
Su Fengmao occasionally thought of something but could not remember much. However, his parents told him that his temperament had changed after returning to the village.
Later, he passed by Flower County and met Shen Qiuhua. It was love at first sight for the two, and they soon got married. However, Su Fengmao could not remember what he had experienced during his disappearance.
After all these years, he had long forgotten about such things. Suddenly, a strange feeling emerged in his heart, and he had an extraordinary experience.
As everyone inside discussed the situation, Su Binglan and Luo Jin’an met Lan
Ruozhu at the door. Su Binglan happily exclaimed, “Brother Ruozhu!”
Lan Ruozhu looked healthier than ever. He started practicing martial arts again when he returned to the prefecture. He felt light and flexible, and he ate and slept well.
Lan Ruozhu had recovered fully. However, he had been busy and finally found time to spend with his sister and godparents. He even made it in time to celebrate the upcoming Lantern Festival. Here, he felt the family’s warmth.
He felt relaxed when his carriage arrived at Tenghe Town. He remembered how excited he was when preparing to visit the Su family after working so hard.
Lan Ruozhu was so thrilled to see his sister that his eyes reddened. He
approached and hugged her tightly, saying, “Hello again, Little Sister.”
Although he had been in contact with Luo Jin’an and knew Su Binglan was healthy, he could not help but worry about her without seeing her in person. He could finally sigh in relief after reuniting with her.
Su Binglan looked healthy, and her complexion was excellent. Lan Ruozhu was relieved that she was well.
“Brother, why are you here?”contemporary romance
“l came to surprise you and celebrate the Lantern Festival with everyone,” Lan
Ruozhu said.
Su Binglan smiled, “Indeed, I am surprised. I missed you during the New Year, especially since you couldn’t visit. It’s great that you’re here for the Lantern Festival.
“Oh, we’re making glutinous rice balls with various fillings. We can eat them tomorrow.”
A gentle light flashed across Lan Ruozhu’s eyes as he said, “That’s perfect. I can finally eat your delicacies again.”
He missed his sister’s cooking when he returned to the prefecture. After all, her food was the most delicious. He felt other foods paled compared to Su Binglan’s cooking.
“l bought everyone gifts.” Lan Ruozhu treated his sister’s family as his own..
