Chapter 201

The emperor pressed down hard and rejected the request of the Marquis of Huaiyin to depose the prince.

The prince has not breathed a sigh of relief.

Immediately afterwards, it was revealed that Chu Mingyan was not the son of the Marquis of Huaiyin, but the son of the late Emperor and Concubine Li——Cheng Wang.

People from Huaiyin Hou's faction and Qin Mou's faction knelt down and begged the emperor to let King Cheng recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors.

Emperor Ming stopped the court for three days, and avoided seeing all the officials on the pretext of illness.

Emperor Ming did not pretend to be sick, he was indeed suddenly ill.Headache attack, lying in bed unable to get out of bed.

But in the eyes of others, Emperor Ming's illness came too quickly and too coincidentally, it was just that he was not ready to accept the news that King Cheng was still alive.

Although there is also a reason for this, Emperor Ming lay in bed for two days, but the symptoms did not decrease but became more severe.

"Your Majesty, why are you getting up? This servant helped you up." Eunuch Liu came in with the medicine, and when he saw Emperor Ming get up, he quickly stepped forward to help him up.

"Change."

Eunuch Liu was surprised and said, "Your Majesty, you want to go out?"

"Hmm." Emperor Ming straightened his cuffs and glanced at the sky outside: "I haven't seen the Queen Mother for a long time."

Eunuch Liu's heart was awe-inspiring, and he didn't dare to speak any more.The emperor went to see the queen mother at this time, it must be because of the incident of becoming a king that came out of nowhere.Now I don't have an idea in mind, so I went to ask the Queen Mother for an idea.

Emperor Ming drank the medicine and went to Funing Palace.

Aunt Ning was feeding the Queen Mother porridge, when she heard the sound of kneeling outside, she immediately stood up and bowed to salute.

"Excuse me." Emperor Ming looked at the Empress Dowager who was in a much better state of mind, and asked her how she was doing recently: "How is the Empress Dowager?"

"Reporting to the emperor, the empress dowager can eat half a bowl of gruel more recently than before, and she feels more at night than before, and sleeps more peacefully." Aunt Ning saw the empress dowager pointing at the bowl in her hand. Aunt Ning sat down and took a spoonful. Spoon and feed her to drink.

The Empress Dowager drank very slowly, and Aunt Ning had a little difficulty feeding her. Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Emperor Ming standing aside, from his calmness at first, to now his brows were full of impatience.

Aunt Ning immediately understood, the Queen Mother did not want to talk to the Emperor.

But some things, if you don't want to avoid them, you can avoid them.

"Go down, I have something to say to the Queen Mother." Emperor Ming said, waving Aunt Ning away.

Aunt Ning didn't move, she looked at the Queen Mother.

The queen mother was so disappointed in Emperor Ming that she didn't want to see him.Aunt Ning told her everything about the outside world in detail.

The movable hand was tightly gripping the mattress. She thought that King Cheng had already died in the flames, but she never expected that he was still alive.

The Empress Dowager was very happy in her heart. Concubine Li was such a plain woman who was kind to others in the palace and never blush with others.Such a beautiful woman was burdened by her family and died young.

The only heir is alive, she knows in the world, will she be relieved?
A smile appeared on the Queen Mother's face, looking at the gloomy and gloomy Emperor Ming, she suddenly felt relieved in her heart, he has no benevolence, how can the country be strong when it is governed by him?

Looking back on the first half of her life, the Empress Dowager was at a loss. She didn't know what she had gained from the struggle for the throne.
Lost is much more than gained.

Now it really doesn't matter, whose hands this country falls into, and what does it have to do with her?

The empress dowager's eyes were filled with remorse, she slowly closed her eyes, and spit out each word: "The heirs of the late emperor must not be left outside."

Emperor Ming was shocked and looked at the queen mother in disbelief.She will not fail to understand what it means to recognize becoming a king!
"My queen, the crown prince is my only son who can shoulder heavy responsibilities. He is currently in dire straits. If King Cheng recognizes his ancestors and returns to his clan, it will be disadvantageous for the crown prince." Emperor Ming tightly clenched his hands behind his back into a fist, suppressing his inner thoughts. , said calmly: "Mother, the emperor left the military power in your hands. I need that power, can you give it to me? Stabilize the great Zhou country?"

When the queen mother heard the last few words of Emperor Ming, she suddenly laughed.The crooked mouth was slightly distorted because of her smile, which was quite funny.

"Give it to King Cheng."

How could the Empress Dowager not know that Qin Mo had an extraordinary relationship with the Marquis of Huaiyin, she thought he was supporting Yu Qinglan before, but now it seems that he chose to become king.

Giving the military talisman to Qin Mo is no different from giving it to King Cheng.

"Queen mother! You are so foolish! Who is your son? It is not easy for me to guard the country. How can I fight against the outside world and fight against the outside world without military power? I... will sooner or later be killed by you. Zhou Jiangshan!" Emperor Ming was extremely angry, his face was ashen, he wished to open the Queen Mother's mind and see what she was thinking!
Facing Emperor Ming's anger, the Empress Dowager remained indifferent, with her head turned to the inside of the bed, unwilling to talk further.

Emperor Ming's eyes were filled with darkness and prey, and there seemed to be a raging fire burning inside his body, burning his internal organs, and even burning his reason, almost to erupt.Gritting his teeth, he said, "Queen, you don't want to see this country change hands. Otherwise, Jiashan would have died in vain."

"Ah--" The queen mother was stimulated, screamed and became emotional.

Jiashan is a knot she can't untie in this life.

Seeing that the Queen Mother finally reacted, Emperor Ming seemed to have found an outlet for the anger in his heart, and said word by word: "You did not hesitate to have a rift with the king of Shu for the sake of me, and now you are helping an outsider to grab my dragon chair. When the king learns, he will be like Jiashan, and he will not want to see you even if he dies."

"Retribution... retribution."

The Empress Dowager made a 'cluck' sound from her throat, her eyes were wide open, and her crooked mouth was opened, as if she couldn't take a breath and would die at any time.

Emperor Ming was frightened by her appearance, knowing that it would be useless for him to say more, and that this trip would not achieve his goal, he snorted coldly and said: "You live longer, I will let you watch, even if your heart is for outsiders If you don’t take good care of me, I won’t lose my country either!” And this throne will eventually be passed on to the crown prince!

After leaving these words, Emperor Ming left angrily.

When Aunt Ning came in, she watched the Empress Dowager's eyes turn white, her hands and feet twitched, and she passed out.

"The empress dowager—"

Aunt Ning rushed over, her face turned pale with shock, "Come here, hurry up and get the imperial physician!"

In Funing Palace, there was a panic.

When the news was reported to Emperor Ming, Emperor Ming didn't bat an eye, and said coldly: "I'm not an imperial physician, if there is no important news about Funing Palace, there is no need to report it."

"No." The waiter withdrew.

Emperor Ming threw the memorial on the dragon case with a 'slap', upset.

He intends to find the queen mother to return the soldier talisman, her heart is towards him, if he asks, the queen mother will definitely give it.When the time comes, he will include Chu Mingyan in the jade document.

Unexpectedly, she gave it to Chu Mingyan!

Become a king?

Emperor Ming sneered.

It is so easy for a dead person to come back to life!
The queen mother wanted to become a king and recognize her ancestors, but he refused!

Doesn't Chu Mingyan hold a soldier talisman in his hand?Let's see how he can win the imperial power with the bargaining chip!

The next day.

When Emperor Ming came to court, someone proposed to depose the crown prince, and the king would recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors. He immediately ordered that people be killed with sticks, and that chickens be killed as an example to monkeys!
There was a sudden silence in the court.

Emperor Ming was very satisfied, and before his heart fell back, it was reported that the prince had broken his leg.

Emperor Ming was furious!
Order a thorough investigation.

The result was submitted to the case, but it was the prince who favored Liang Di, played new tricks, and pursued excitement, Liang Di accidentally cut the rope tied to her ankle and broke her hamstring.

This is a scandal, and the prince's reputation will be ruined when word spreads, so it is said that he broke his leg.

Absurd!

bang——

Emperor Ming slammed the information on the dragon case, the prince was seriously injured, and several ribs were broken, how can he pamper a woman?
The servants and maidservants in the hall knelt on the ground, not daring to vent their breath.

Emperor Ming threw himself into the dragon chair and rubbed his cheeks fiercely with his hands. The crown prince was controversial a while ago. The news of his injury must not be released, otherwise the cause of his injury will be found out. It is no doubt that the crown prince attacked a baby girl. It is worse.

Unexpectedly, if the news of his injury was concealed, others would start doing it!

But it can't be clarified.

Eunuch Liu opened the door and came in. The atmosphere in the hall was dignified. Emperor Ming's face was ashen, and he reported tremblingly: "Your Majesty, there are rumors outside that the crown prince's sexual behavior was indiscreet and his legs were crippled. The public opinion cannot be suppressed..."

Emperor Ming was so angry that he became dizzy, his eyes turned black, and he fell on the dragon chair and passed out.

"Your Majesty—" Eunuch Liu scrambled and scrambled, shook Emperor Ming, and shouted angrily with a pale face: "You're going to die, go and call the imperial physician!"

-

East Palace.

The prince has a violent temper.

Everything on the bed was smashed by him.

The curtains were torn, crumpled and thrown on the ground, leaving the house in a mess.

His hamstrings couldn't be extended, and even if he could, his reputation would be rotten!

"Your Highness..."

"Get out! Get out of here, Ben Gong!" The prince pulled out the pillow under his head and threw it out with all his might.

The servant staggered out of the inner bedroom, almost tripped on the ground, raised his eyes to see the crown princess, his face was pale, and he said stammeringly: "Too...Prince princess..."

"How is the prince?" Chu Mingzhu's eyes were red and swollen from crying, and they were sore.

The servant whispered, "Mrs...Prince..." Before he finished speaking, Chu Mingzhu had already entered the inner hall.

"Go away, I didn't hear you!" the prince roared.

Chu Mingzhu paused, looking at the prince who was in a rage, feeling a dull pain in his heart.Ever since he was beaten up by Qin Suo, the situation has taken a turn for the worse, and the calls for dethrone are too loud.The emperor was tough and suppressed it, but he didn't know that his legs were broken again in the palace.Before he could catch his breath, the prince's reputation was slandered outside again.

One thing after another, should be overwhelmed.

The prince didn't hear the footsteps leaving, looked sideways, and saw Chu Mingzhu standing at the door.The gloomy look on his face suddenly dissipated, as if he remembered something again, his face sank, and he said sarcastically: "What are you doing here? Is my current behavior satisfying you? I underestimated you and was deceived by you You are ignorant of the world, and you hide all the shady things from you, for fear that what I did will frighten you!"

With a laugh, he said sarcastically: "I never thought that you are the one who buried the deepest! Am I not good enough for you?" Asking this sentence, the prince laughed at himself, what's the use of being good?She was just a chess piece that Marquis Huaiyin had brought in, and her heart had never been placed on him, so she was able to betray her completely!
He hates Chu Mingzhu as much as he loves him now, and how stupid he was back then!
Problems that were invisible before, are exposed now, but I feel that everything is traceable.

Why Chu Mingzhu married him, Huaiyinhou's attitude is not clear, he only thinks that Huaiyinhou is loyal to the emperor and does not stand for any party. When he becomes emperor, he will naturally support him to secure the throne.

Until the incident happened, he naively sought help from the Marquis of Huaiyin.Unexpectedly, he took the lead in asking the emperor to depose him as the crown prince, and suddenly woke up from the dream.

He didn't understand it at the time, thinking that the Marquis of Huaiyin was biased towards Xieqiao and was better than his own daughter.He attacked Chang Le, and the Marquis of Huaiyin became angry because of this.When Chu Mingyan's real identity was revealed, he understood everything!

Ha ha!

Nine times out of ten, his leg was interrupted by Qin Suo.

Even if the royal father tried his best to stabilize his position as the crown prince, he would still be a cripple!

"No, it's not like that... I know you are good to me. I told my mother that I will never go back to the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion in the future. What I did before is the right of her upbringing, and I will serve you well in the future." Make up for the mistakes you made before." The prince's accusations made Chu Mingzhu turn pale and feel ashamed.But she really doesn't care about the throne, whether she can be the mother of the world in the future.Suppressing the trembling in his heart, he walked towards the prince step by step, took the prince's hand, and said with a choked voice: "We will not fight or grab, so we will live together in the future, and be an idle prince, idle clouds and wild cranes, okay?"

Seeing the tears on Chu Mingzhu's face, the prince was stung in his heart, and was instantly overwhelmed by overwhelming hatred.Pulling out his hand, he said in a cold voice, "Idle prince? Will they give me a way out?"

"Yes, I will. My brother won't take our lives. Let's let go, my husband, okay?" Chu Mingzhu looked at her empty hand, and her heart seemed to be empty.He blamed her, how could he not?Chu Mingzhu was at a loss in her heart, she didn't ask the prince to forgive her, but only hoped that she could guard him for the rest of her life.

The prince laughed out loud like crazy, with tears in his eyes, pitifully looking at Chu Mingzhu: "Pearl, why don't you understand? I have been trained as a prince since I was a child, and I practice the art of kings." , live for that position. You said you gave up, and how can you be reconciled to being an idle prince from now on?"

Chu Mingzhu closed her eyes, tears streaming down her cheeks.

"Pearl, do you love me?" The prince's eyes were gentle, and he gently wiped away the tears on her cheeks with his fingers.

Chu Mingzhu nodded.

The sparkle in the prince's eyes flashed away, he chuckled a few times, and nodded, as if he was satisfied with the answer.

Seeing his appearance, Chu Mingzhu panicked and murmured, "Husband..."

"You go out first, I want to rest and sort out our relationship." The prince's tone was calm, unable to distinguish his emotions at the moment.

Chu Mingzhu refused to leave, the calmer the prince was, the more uneasy she felt.

He reacted violently, which showed that he cared.

"I'm not going, don't drive me away, okay? Let me stay with you..." Chu Mingzhu only spoke halfway, and the prince waved his hand to plan. His brows were filled with impatience, and his eyes were full of rage. , scolded: "Get out! I don't want to see you for the time being! Can you let me be quiet for a while, or are you willing to die only if I die?"

"No, it's not..."

"Go away!"

Chu Mingzhu's tears kept flowing down, her lips trembled, she wanted to say something, but she didn't know what to say, she just shook her head.

When the prince saw this, he was very angry: "Chu Mingzhu, don't be naive! If your elder brother wants to let me go, how can you cripple my leg? What's the good of me being crippled? Let you be so determined? Okay, You said they were willing to let me go! You asked Ronghua to heal my leg, and I believed you. Write off everything before and start over."

Chu Mingzhu clenched her palms tightly, stared blankly at the prince, and did not speak.

The prince sneered and said, "Why, you think it's impossible? If you don't believe it, use it to fool me. In your eyes, I'm as stupid as a pig!"

"No! It's not what you said! I'll go, I'll go to Ronghua right now, and beg her to heal your leg..." Chu Mingzhu didn't wait for the prince to say anything, and walked towards the door with her long skirt that reached the floor. In the blink of an eye, they disappeared.

With a sound of "ah", the prince roared, and beat the mattress heavily with both hands, like a trapped animal, howling on the verge of death.

His hands pinched his unconscious thighs tightly, with such force that he almost tore off the flesh under his fingers, exposing the bones.

Abandoned!

Even if he has a genius, he will miss the throne in his life.

The prince's arms clamped his head tightly, and these legs completely crushed him.

From the inside out!

The decree to dethrone the prince will come into his hands sooner or later.

Hahaha the prince laughed out loud.

He lost.

Lost completely.

The guards guarding the door heard the prince's lunatic laughter and felt that the prince was not far from going crazy.

-

County Palace.

Xie Qiao stood behind the book case, concentrating on writing the family letter and sending it to Qin Mo.

The secrets in Shennong Valley have always been passed on to men but not to women.That's why Yu Qinglan studied metaphysics and the art of heaven and earth gossip in order to activate the entrance to the forbidden area.

The master once said that the master once went in, but never came out again. He didn't know the danger, so if there is no matter of life and death, don't open the forbidden area.

It was in consideration of this level that she asked Qin Mou to go with her.

He was really angry.

Even if he left, he still set up a net and refused to spare the prince and let him have a better day.

Before Xie Qiao could deploy in the future, he didn't even give the prince a chance to breathe, and acted directly.

According to the current situation, there is no room for the prince to stand up!

Xie Qiao's eyes burst out with icy sharpness, and thick ink was drawn heavily on the rice paper, penetrating through the back of the paper, with a murderous aura.

This is not enough!

knock knock.

The door was knocked.

Xie Qiao picked up the rice paper, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it into the barrel.

"Come in."

Mingxiu pushed the door open, her expression was not very good, she said reluctantly: "Concubine Princess, if it wasn't for what the Marquis of Huaiyin did, the slaves would have kicked her out long ago! What the crown prince did, is it something that people should do? What kind of a man is he to lay hands on a baby who doesn't know anything? It's like a beast! To have the face to ask you to heal his leg, if he doesn't poison him with a pack of medicine, he's blessed by heaven."

Xie Qiao pursed his lips tightly, wondering in his heart: "Chu Mingzhu?"

She would come to beg herself to heal the prince's leg.

Unexpected.

"Isn't it? They really have strange ideas, are inhumane, and expect others to have a bodhisattva heart. If you bully me, I will die, and then I turn around and ask for help. Shameless!" Mingxiu spent his whole life cursing others, All dedicated to the prince.

"Not seen." Xie Qiao took up the pen again, spread out the letter paper, and wrote the letter calmly and stroke by stroke.

Speaking of Chang Le, his brows were furrowed and his expression was very soft.

Mingxiu made up her mind and went out to reject Chu Mingzhu.

After a while, Mingxiu returned without success, and said with a sad face: "Princess Princess, Princess Concubine is kneeling on the ground, she said that you don't want to see her, so she can't afford to kneel for a long time."

Xie Qiao rubbed the center of his brows, feeling depressed, got up and went to the front hall.

From a distance, Chu Mingzhu was seen kneeling on the ground with her back straight, as if she was kneeling to death.

Chu Mingzhu felt a line of sight fall on her, looked sideways, and saw Xie Qiao standing not far away.His dull eyes turned slightly, and there was a gleam of light in his lifeless pupils.The wooden face twitched a few times, pulling out a forced smile.

"It's good that you are willing to come to see me." Chu Mingzhu stood up, walked towards Xie Qiao step by step, and stood in front of her, her pale face was stiff and cold, no longer the delicate and softness of the past.She stretched out her hand to hold Xie Qiao, but she avoided her. Chu Mingzhu smiled, her mouth felt bitter, and that bit of bitterness spread to the bottom of her heart, paralyzing her heart, and murmured: "What I ask for today will be difficult for others..."

"Since I know it's difficult for others, why bother to speak again?" Xie Qiao sneered across his lips: "Zhu'er, I have clear grievances and grievances, and I don't blame others. It doesn't mean that I will forgive my enemies. You know your mission, but It's wrong to let yourself sink into the mud. You betrayed your parents and fell in love with someone you shouldn't love. Now that you fell in love, you betrayed him for your own mission. The double-edged sword you hold in your hand The sword, stabbed your parents, and hurt yourself."

Chu Mingzhu's face paled instantly.

"You have always been smart and knew the end of the prince from the beginning, but you deceived yourself and believed that your eldest brother would save the prince, and the prince would give up everything and live with you in an ordinary life. Can you reconcile as before? As early as the moment you betrayed him, you shouldn't let your heart go.

Pearl, the current situation is all the bitter fruit brewed by yourself, and you will bear it all by yourself.If you can't be faithful to your parents, you have to choose to reject them from the beginning.Otherwise, the crown prince noticed your identity earlier, and now you are not kneeling in front of me, but at the crown prince's feet, begging him to forgive your parents! " Xie Qiao's words were cruel and ruthless, piercing the last illusion in Chu Mingzhu's heart.

Chu Mingzhu broke down and covered her face and cried bitterly, venting all her grievances and fears.

Xie Qiao watched coldly, and when she had finished crying and was tired, he handed over a brocade handkerchief, "Zhu'er, you and the prince are on opposite sides no matter what. There will be no results. In the heart of the prince, the imperial power is higher than you."

"Whether he succeeds or fails, you will never reach the same goal." Xie Qiao knelt down, picked up the handkerchief, and wiped away her tears.

The makeup on Chu Mingzhu's face was weeping, and she looked at Xie Qiao with a red nose. She understood the meaning of Xie Qiao's words.The prince failed, he couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart, and would not forgive her.But if the prince succeeds, her parents will become prisoners. She has a grudge in her heart and can't let go.

"What should I do? Cousin, how do I go on in the future? How can I go on?" Chu Mingzhu's eyes were full of sadness and despair. The prince's kindness to her was like honey, poisonous, and he couldn't get rid of it. .

Xie Qiao rubbed her head and sighed, "Forget about him."

There was a buzzing in Chu Mingzhu's head, forgot him?

How easy is it?

When the thought came together, the heart seemed to be hollowed out.

Xie Qiao took out a porcelain vase from his sleeve and put it in her palm: "Zhu'er, everyone has Ni Lin, Changle I regard it as life, which is better than my life. The moment the crown prince made a move on her, I will never end with him. You come to me, and I will do everything I can for other things. Just forgive the prince, forgive me, I don’t have such a broad mind.”

Chu Mingzhu bit her lip tightly, Xie Qiao's words were for this sake, she definitely wouldn't help her.However, she did not want to let go of any hope.With a plop, Chu Mingzhu knelt on the ground and begged, "Let me repay what the prince owes Changle. I owe him all of this. Cousin, I understand what you're saying, but I just want to do something for him." One thing, regardless of whether the result is right or wrong." The upper body bowed deeply, the forehead hit the ground, and the delicate fingers were tightly pinched in the soil.

Xie Qiao didn't start, and said indifferently: "You go back." Turning around, he said to Ming Xiu: "Send the princess away."

Chu Mingzhu's voice was bleak: "Cousin—"

Xie Qiao paused, and left without looking back.

Chu Mingyan's life experience shocked her, but she was more relieved.Chu Mingyan was born for this position, and he is more legitimate than anyone else.Chu Mingyan ascended the throne, so what else can she worry about?

"Princess Princess, Princess Concubine has left." Mingxiu took care of Chu Mingzhu, came in and said to Xie Qiao.

Xie Qiao nodded.

Being a mother is strong, this statement is not false at all.

But also hard and soft.

The heart is softer and more easily satisfied than before.When the bottom line principle is touched, the heart becomes more cold and hard.

-

The decree to depose the prince was sent to the East Palace the next day.

The prince was abolished and demoted to Xiaoyao Wang. After recovering from his injury, he left Beijing and returned to his fief immediately.

Chu Mingzhu led the order on behalf of the prince, and the group moved out of the East Palace and went to the residence of the reward.

Ever since the prince quarreled violently with Chu Mingzhu that day, he has become more and more taciturn.Chu Mingzhu was by his side to take care of him, and he stopped talking badly.

Even, sometimes staring at Chu Mingzhu's busy figure in a daze.

Today, moving to a new mansion, no one has a happy expression on their face, all of them are full of worry.

The prince was surprisingly quiet, without any resistance, as if he had accepted his fate.

Lying on the bed at the moment, holding a volume of books in his hand, his feminine eyes were staring at Chu Mingzhu's back.

Feeling the Prince's gaze on her figure, Chu Mingzhu smiled slightly and said, "Are you feeling better today?"

The prince nodded.

The smile on Chu Mingzhu's face remained the same, her eyebrows and eyes were soft, and her smile was quiet: "Are you thirsty? I'll pour you a glass of water." A glass of water came over, took the book from the prince's hand, and put the water glass in his palm: " Our fief is in the south, the land is rich, the scenery is pleasant, and it is very suitable for living. When your injury heals, we will go to the fief. You said that you have had a lot of schoolwork since you were a child, and you have very high demands on yourself. You envy others that you can leave Beijing to study. At that time, we can travel to various countries and experience different customs and customs.”

The prince's eyes moved slightly, but he didn't speak.

Chu Mingzhu was disappointed in her heart, but cheered up again in an instant.Just as she was about to change the subject, her cheeks felt slightly warm, and the prince's fingertips lightly brushed her cheeks, with a lingering meaning: "Okay."

Chu Mingzhu's heart was filled with great joy, ecstatically, she threw herself into his arms excitedly, hugged the prince tightly, and swallowed silently.

The prince froze for a moment, and after a long time, he raised his hand and patted the back of her hand lightly, feeling her slow down, let go of her and said, "We will leave Beijing tomorrow."

"Your injury is not healed yet, so you can't travel long distances..." Chu Mingzhu's full of words turned into one word under the prince's gaze: "Okay." Wiping away tears, he smiled and said, "Then I will clean up now. "

The prince took her hand and said slowly: "No hurry, you go to Huaiyinhou's mansion and say goodbye to them."

"Husband—"

"Let's go, maybe never come back."

Chu Mingzhu didn't speak, but nodded.

The prince immediately arranged for someone to take her back to the Marquis of Huaiyin, and just as she walked out the door, the prince clutched his painful heart, like ten thousand insects gnawed on her, a thread of blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth.The prince took the veil and wiped it off nonchalantly, as if it wasn't the first time it had happened.

Xie Qiao's words kept resounding in his mind - rotten heart and rotten lung.

Is your heart broken now?

The prince curled up on the bed, waiting for the death-worse pain to pass.Gritting my teeth for two hours, the pain dissipated and my whole body collapsed.

He called the servant to wait for him to take a bath and change clothes. It was rare for someone to take out his purple robe and put it on neatly. His face was covered with fine powder, and his sword eyebrows were drawn more sharply.

After tidying up, Chu Mingzhu came back. When she saw the handsome and handsome prince, she couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and then a gorgeous smile appeared on her face.The heart that was raised finally fell down.

The prince was lying on the couch, and there were two glasses of wine on the small table. Chu Mingzhu was summoned, and he took a glass of wine and handed it to her: "How does Lord Hou treat you?"

The smile on Chu Mingzhu's face disappeared, and she looked at the prince in a panic.

The prince smiled lightly: "What are you panicking about? I just asked casually." Seeing that Chu Mingzhu didn't want to mention it, the prince raised his glass and said, "Go to bed after drinking this glass of wine, and get up early tomorrow."

Chu Mingzhu tightened her fingers tightly to the wine glass, watched him drink it down calmly, his eyes as deep as the dark night looked at her, her heart trembled, she put her sleeves on her lips, and he pulled the sleeves vigorously, Chu Mingzhu held her hands After a meal, the wine glass fell into the hands of the prince.

The prince looked at Chu Mingzhu's puzzled gaze, with no ups and downs on his face, as if he had lost his position, and nothing in this world could arouse his interest: "You are not fit for drinking." Lifted up to drink, put the empty glass on the The little table came up and said to Chu Mingzhu: "Go and wash up, go to bed."

Chu Mingzhu took a few glances at the prince, always feeling that he was abnormal today, and at his urging, hurried back from the bath.The prince had already been carried by the servant and lay on the inner side of the bed, fast asleep.

Chu Mingzhu stared at him for a long time, and stretched out her fingers to touch his tough facial features, but the moment they touched, she suddenly withdrew her fingers.Lying on another quilt next to her, she looked sideways at his face quietly.I thought in my heart, even if he doesn't talk much, it's good to be so quiet and accompany him until he grows old.

Suppressing the uneasiness in my heart, I gradually fell asleep.

-

Dawn breaks, and a faint golden light fills the room.

Chu Mingzhu woke up suddenly, panting heavily while pressing on her throbbing heart.His flustered eyes fell on the prince who was still sleeping beside him, and he let out a long sigh of relief.

She wanted to wake him up, but felt that he hadn't had a good night's sleep for a long time, so she gave him another sleep.

The maidservant heard the noise, came in with water, and waited for Chu Mingzhu to wash.

"Princess, the housekeeper has spoken back. Everything is ready and we can leave at any time." The maid informed Chu Mingzhu of the message brought by the housekeeper.

Chu Mingzhu nodded lightly, expressing that she knew.

After washing up, Chu Mingzhu looked at the prince still sleeping, with a slight smile on the corner of her mouth.Although she is not a noble princess, but a princess, she feels extremely relaxed.

Seeing that it was getting late and he had to leave Beijing, he went to wake him up.

"Husband, wake up, it's dawn." Chu Mingzhu called softly, feeling very happy to be able to see him when she opened her eyes in the future.Even if all this is just an illusion, she is satisfied.

The prince still didn't make any movement.

Chu Mingzhu's eyes gradually changed, and the smile froze on his face.Stretch out your hand to push him, the warm body, the tentacles are cold.

"Husband...husband..." Chu Mingzhu paused her fingers, a huge panic enveloped her, her heart jumped suddenly, her fingers tremblingly stroked his face, her face was frozen.

Chu Mingzhu's whole body went limp, and she propped her hands on the edge of the bed, so she didn't fall to the ground.

The fingers pressed against his pillow were stained with the fine powder on his face, but they couldn't lift any strength to touch his breath.

It seems that as long as he doesn't try it, he will always be alive.

The maid hadn't heard anything from inside the door for a long time, so she knocked on the door, but there was no sound from inside.

Pushing open the door hesitantly, the scene in the room came into view.

Chu Mingzhu was sitting at the head of the bed, with the prince's upper body pillowed in her arms, with one arm around the prince, her cheek pressed against the prince's cheek, a smile as warm as spring breeze on her beautiful face.

The slender fingers gently stroked his face, and the blood stains slowly overflowing from the corner of his mouth stained her plain white sleeves red, like a new plum blooming in the snow.

The sun is pouring down, warming the coldness of the room.

Chu Mingzhu kissed his eyelids with the corner of her mouth, smiled softly and said a word, extremely gentle.

The maid's legs were weak, she knelt on the ground, and screamed: "The prince is dead!"
