Chapter 25 The Crown Prince Returns to Beijing

Chapter 25 The Prince Returns to Beijing

When Li Huang woke up in the morning, he went to the backyard to do horse walking as usual, starting from the most basic.

As Mo Jingzhan said, her body is now weak and it is impossible to recover overnight. She can only recover slowly.

Ah Yuan had stewed the clear soup early in the morning, and after seeing Li Huang finish his morning exercise, he carefully sent the stewed clear soup to Li Huang's bedroom.

"Your Highness, these are soups for nourishing qi and blood. My maidservant taught me how to make them. Do you think they suit your taste?"

After Li Huang washed up, A Yuan brought a bowl of soup over.

Her previous diet, even her breakfast, was all delicacies from the mountains and seas. Now A-Yuan's bowl of soup is indeed a bit shabby in comparison.

Li Huang took the soup and took a sip. It was sweet and very tasty.

She blurted out: "Leave a portion for Ning Qi."

After she said this, A Yuan and Ling Yuan looked at each other and burst into laughter.

Li Huang looked at the two of them blankly, "What's wrong?"

She thought about it and didn't say anything strange.

Seeing Li Huang's confusion, Ling Yuan explained with a smile: "Your Highness, this is for replenishing the woman's qi and blood. Guard Ning...well, his blood is strong, so there is no need to replenish it."

Li Huang blushed, cleared his throat in embarrassment, and said, "In that case, you two sit down and have dinner with me."

But this meal is destined to be unsettling.

Li Huang hadn't even had two sips when someone came in from outside and reported: "Your Highness, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was assassinated on his way back to Beijing!"

Li Huang almost galloped on his horse and rushed all the way to the Prince's Mansion.

She clearly wrote a letter asking him to avoid that road and return to Beijing, so why was he still assassinated?

Could it be that the memory in the dream is biased?

There are very few pedestrians on the long street in the early morning.

Ling Yuan led the way, and Li Huang arrived at the Prince's Mansion smoothly.

"Where is Brother Huang?"

As soon as she entered the door, she grabbed a palace man and asked nervously.

The palace man pointed in the direction of the study and trembled out a few words: "Your Highness, in the study..."

Before she could finish speaking, Li Huang let go of her and went straight to the study.

When he opened the door, he saw Li Yuze sitting behind the desk, his brows furrowed. Beside him, Li Chuchu's eyes were red, and he looked pitiful.

Something sank in Li Huang's heart, and her eyes dimmed. She saluted Li Yuze and said calmly: "Since the emperor is fine, I will leave first."

But before she stepped out of the study, she heard Li Yuze's deep voice coming from behind: "Aren't you going to explain why you bully Chu Chu like this?"

Li Huang's back stiffened, and he turned back to meet Li Yuze's gaze.

The prince was raised in the imperial concubine's palace and was much closer to Li Chuchu than to her, his biological sister.

But Li Huang never expected that her royal brother would summon her when he returned to Beijing, and he could not wait to seek justice for Li Chuchu.

Seeing that Li Huang didn't speak, Li Chuchu bit her lip in grievance and burst into tears: "Brother Prince, don't blame sister. It's Chu Chu's fault. It's Chu Chu who made sister angry."

As soon as Li Chuchu said these three words, she shed tears all over the floor, which made Li Yuze angry and distressed.

He patted Li Chuchu's hand, softened his voice and said, "I will make the decision for you on this matter. You go out first."

"Yes." Li Chuchu agreed obediently, and before leaving, he deliberately showed the scars on the back of his hands that he had deliberately pinched.

Sure enough, when Li Yuze saw the scar, his eyes turned coldly and he glanced at Li Huang.

The door to the study room was closed, leaving only brother and sister Li Huang and Li Yuze.

Li Huang stood there, looking directly into Li Yuze's eyes without changing his expression.

Seeing that she was unrepentant, the latter slammed the table and said angrily: "Do you still look like an elder sister? I have only been away from the capital for a few days, and you pushed Chu Chu into the ice lake again, and again

She is locked up with a mouse, Li Huang, what else do you want to do?"

When Li Huang heard these remarks, he wanted to laugh for a moment.

"Brother Huang didn't even ask what happened, so he came to ask for help?"

"So what happened? Chu Chu is timid by nature and kind-hearted. Could it be that she framed you?"

After saying that, Li Yuze glared at Li Huang coldly and said word by word: "Chu Chu is my blood relative. I will never let anyone insult her under my nose, not even you."

Li Huang's heart ached.

It was as if someone had cut her. She knew that the cut would never heal, and even if it healed, it would never be the same again.

She raised her lips and suppressed the last trace of brother-sister friendship she felt for Li Yuze in her heart.

Why should we look forward to something we have long since lost?

She took a deep breath, straightened her back and looked at Li Yuze, "So how does His Royal Highness plan to seek justice for your blood relatives?"

Hearing Li Huang's unapologetic tone, Li Yuze's body was trembling with anger, "What are you talking about! Aren't you my blood relative? You did something wrong, shouldn't you apologize to Chu Chu?"

"Apologise?" Even though he tried hard to hold back, Li Huang couldn't help but blush, "No way!"

"You want me to apologize to Li Chuchu, unless I die!"

"Presumptuous!" Li Yuze was so angry that he lost his mind. He hurried back to the capital all the way. It was because he received Li Chuchu's letter and learned that Li Huang was doing mischief in the capital. He was afraid that she would cause trouble, so he rushed all night.

Unexpectedly, she didn’t know how to repent!

"What a great eldest princess!" Li Yuze sneered, "Since you are not under my control, from now on, I will just pretend that I don't have you as my sister!"

There was a 'boom' sound.

Li Huang only felt as if a thunderbolt struck from the Tianling Cap.

She stared blankly at the angry and pale Li Yuze in front of her. She recalled that when her father asked her who she wanted to be the prince when she was a child, she pointed at the young Li Yuze and said she should choose him.

Father asked her why.

She said because her brother would always protect her.

I don't know since when, the imperial brother who had been protecting her would forget her existence because of Li Chuchu's cries. He would also respond to her requests because of Li Chuchu's coquettishness.

As the eldest princess, she has to be dignified and polite, and keep the face of the royal family. No matter how much she likes something, she can't look at it twice.

But unknowingly, all the things she deserved went to Li Chuchu.

Now Li Chuchu wants to destroy her innocence and kill her, but her royal brother actually wants her to apologize.

hatred!

angry!

Li Huang gritted his teeth and looked at Li Yuze sarcastically.

Eyes similar to hers were looking at her coldly at the moment.

After a moment, Li Huang looked back and said word by word: "Okay."

After that, she raised her lips and left without looking back.

When Li Huang's back disappeared into the darkness, Li Yuze was silent for a moment.

It seemed as if something important was passing away from him. He wanted to catch it, but he couldn't.

Li Yuze rubbed his eyebrows, took a deep breath, and slumped down on the chair.

It's a sunny day today and the winter plum blossoms are in bloom.

The house is filled with the fragrance of flowers.

When Mo Jingzhan returned home, the entire princess mansion seemed to have fallen into a dead silence.

As soon as Lingyuan saw him, she immediately came up to him.

"Why did you come back? Something happened to Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
