Li Chuchu stood pitifully on one side, while Li Huang held his head, looking calm.
As soon as Gu Chenzhou entered the door, he saw this scene.
Before he could speak, Li Chuchu squeezed out two beautiful tears and choked with sobs: "Brother Shen Zhou, the eldest princess really misunderstood me. I came here today just to see the eldest sister. I have no other intention."
"What are you looking at me for?"
Li Huang opened his eyes and asked with a half-smile.
Li Chuchu always followed the same rules as her own mansion since she came to the princess's mansion. Li Huang never asked about what she wanted or what she wanted to do.
But today was uncharacteristically uncharacteristic. She felt uncomfortable all over, and it was only because Li Huang refused to pay attention to her.
She sang a one-man show for a long time, and finally waited until Gu Chenzhou came in.
Gu Chenzhou's eyes briefly stayed on Li Huang, then immediately moved away, "I was reckless today, I'm sorry."
As soon as he spoke, Li Huang and Li Chuchu looked over at the same time. However, Li Huang was shocked, while Li Chu was more in disbelief. She blinked and whispered: "Brother Shen Zhou, what are you talking about?
"
Gu Chenzhou did not look at her and continued: "I misunderstood that it was my fault that you kept a male favorite. It's just that this man's origin is unknown and he doesn't seem to be a good person. There is nothing wrong with staying in your house..."
"He is my personal bodyguard." Li Huang interrupted him expressionlessly.
It was as if she was facing an insignificant stranger, not someone she once loved.
Gu Chenzhou's heart felt sour and uncomfortable. He endured the discomfort and continued to persuade: "If your house is short of guards, I will give you my personal guards. As long as you let that person leave!"
"impossible."
"Li Huang! Do you have to take revenge on me like this?"
Li Huang laughed angrily. She glanced at Li Chuchu, who was standing aside with a pale face, and said meaningfully: "Gu Chenzhou, you care so much about me in front of your sweetheart, do you think you want to be in two different places?
I won’t give up until I have all my royal princesses in my pocket!”
Gu Chenzhou was startled, and there was no color on his pale face.
He looked at Li Huang in pain and bewilderment, but Li Huang impatiently avoided his gaze, waved his hand and saw off the guests: "If you come to visit next time, you two had better submit your invitation in advance.
"
"Sister, the eldest princess..."
Li Chuchu's eyes turned red with grievance, as if Li Huang had done something to her. As soon as she blinked, a tear fell down again.
Li Huang was very upset today. When he saw Li Chuchu's appearance, he immediately said impatiently: "Do you still want me to personally see off the guests?"
Gu Chenzhou looked at her deeply, snorted coldly, and walked away.
Seeing Gu Chenzhou leaving, Li Chuchu did not rush to chase him out. Instead, he looked at Li Huang in a coquettish manner and asked, "The prince will return to Beijing in three days. The eldest princess should know, right?"
A dull hammer hit Li Huang's heart without any warning.
Prince Li Yuze, her brother from the same mother. The prince inspected the northern border for His Majesty at the beginning of the year. For a whole year, he did not send her a letter. Now, even if he wants to return to Beijing, he has to say it from Li Chuchu's mouth.
Li Huang clenched his fingers tightly, raised his eyes and glanced at Li Chuchu, "Get out."
Li Chuchu suppressed her proud lips, bowed and quickly chased after him.
The hall instantly became empty, and Li Huang's heart felt empty.
She held her temples and closed her eyes tiredly. Unexpectedly, she fell asleep as soon as she closed her eyes...
The night is as dark as ink.
On the official road, a group of people galloped wildly.
The young man at the head was dressed in a purple brocade robe, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, leading the way. The team behind him was uniformly wearing armor and was guarding the back.
Just as they were passing through a mountain road, suddenly, a huge boulder slid down from the mountain and hit the leader hard!
"don't want!"
With a cry of surprise, Li Huang woke up suddenly.
There was a layer of cold sweat on his body, soaking through his clothes.
Seeing the familiar dormitory around her, she pinched her eyebrows and let out a long sigh of relief. It turned out to be just a dream.
Before she could recover, Ning Qi's faint voice suddenly came from outside the curtain: "Are you having a nightmare?"
Li Huang paused and looked up.
Through the curtain, a tall and straight figure stood there.
"Why are you here?"
Li Huang was used to being served by Ling Yuan. Now, standing outside the curtain was Ning Qi, who was neither a stranger nor a familiar figure to her. She actually felt a little uncomfortable.
She pulled at the edge of the quilt, feeling quite embarrassed.
But who would have thought that Mo Jingzhan chuckled and said jokingly: "Didn't you just hold the princess by my collar and prevent me from leaving?"
"I……"
Li Huang was stunned.
How often did she hold Mo Jingzhan by the collar to prevent him from leaving?
But then she thought about it, and it seemed that she had dreamed that she was dragging something. Could it be that the person she was dragging was Ning Qi?
"In the future, you will not be allowed to enter the palace to serve unless summoned by me."
She was a little annoyed and angry, but she couldn't get angry when facing Ning Qi, so she could only give a warning without any momentum.
Mo Jingzhan didn't reply, he just frowned and looked at her, "The princess kept telling brother to be careful in her dream. Brother, are you the prince?"
Li Huang's eyelashes trembled, and the scene from the dream just appeared in his mind.
The elder brother encountered an ambush on his way back to the capital, and a huge rock smashed his leg. After that, the prince was deposed, his temperament changed drastically, and finally he was betrayed by his henchmen and burned alive in the palace.
Li Huang clearly remembered everything that happened in the dream, but she didn't know how to speak.
She thought for a while and asked: "If there is a person who is not very close to you, and you know that he is in danger, will you tell him?"
Mo Jingzhan looked at Li Huang with a complicated expression, then shook his head: "No."
"Why?"
Mo Jingzhan said indifferently: "I must retaliate, and I have a weird temperament. Since he is not close to me, what does his life and death have to do with me?"
Li Huang: "..."
She really asked too much.
However, after thinking about it, Li Huang sighed, and now he had the answer in his heart.
"Ning Qi, Yanmo."
*
the other side.
After Li Chuchu left the eldest princess's mansion with Gu Chenzhou, the carriage from Duke An Guo's mansion had disappeared when she came out.
Li Chuchu stamped her feet angrily.
Li Huang, this bitch! Now he can easily arouse Gu Chenzhou's emotions!
Thinking of the way Gu Chenzhou looked at Li Huang just now, Li Chuchu felt strong uneasiness in his heart.
It had taken her so many years to get Gu Chenzhou to take another look at her, but now with just a few words from Li Huang, he could leave her. No, she would never let this happen!
Thinking of this, Li Chuchu turned to her personal maid and ordered: "Brother Prince is about to return to the capital. Please send me a letter on behalf of me. Just say that the eldest princess is raising a male favorite and does not repent. Please come back soon."
