She had disappeared, but he was still standing there blankly calling her name.
The lotus flowers that filled the lake also returned to their original appearance in an instant, leaving only a few flowers and leaves.
Sikong Yuecang stayed at Lianhu Lake until dawn. He just sat by the lake in a daze, motionless, like a squatting statue.
The sky gradually became brighter. Sikong Yuecang sighed softly and said to the lotus flowers in the lake, "Lian'er... maybe, I really should let you go..."
Her words no longer blamed him, which made him feel a lot more relaxed...
It was like a big stone pressing on my heart was suddenly removed, and my whole body felt much more relaxed.
For many years, he has been living with self-blame and guilt. When he thinks of Lian'er, he can't help but feel sad.
Now..it's time to go to morning service...
However, he was not in the mood today.
Xiaomei was not the reincarnation of Lian'er, which shocked him.
In my memory...she is obviously the reincarnation of Lian'er...
And... the mother-in-law also said that...
He thought everything last night was his imagination...
But when he saw a string of green jade beads, he believed that everything last night was actually real.
This string of green jade beads... was the token of love he gave to Lian'er at that time!
Looking at the string of jade beads in his palm, Sikong Yuecang's expression became serious.
He thought...he should ask his mother and concubine today to find out everything about Xiaomei...
Since Lian'er has said that Xiaomei is not her reincarnation, then Xiaomei must not be Lian'er's reincarnation.
It wouldn't matter if his mother and concubine refused to tell him the truth. He would naturally have a way to verify whether Xiaomei was the reincarnation of Lian'er.
Sikong Yuecang put the string of green jade beads on his palm, then slowly stood up and left the lotus lake.
When he returned, the young eunuch who was waiting for him hurriedly came forward and said, "Your Majesty, it's time for the court."
Sikong Yue glanced at him indifferently, and said with a tired face, "Send the order, I am not feeling well today, so I will not go to court this morning."
