After Yan Jingxuan left the palace, he came here to take Chu Chu back. He was led by his servants to Tingfeng Courtyard, where he saw Xiao Chengyi waiting for him in the yard.
He looked around and asked, "Where is Chu Chu?"
Xiao Chengyi did not answer his words, but glanced at him and asked: "What did your Majesty tell you? But he mentioned Chu Chu?"
Yan Jingxuan was stunned for a moment, then sat down opposite him and said, "I mentioned Chu Chu and asked me where she came from. I said she was a helpless woman from the Jianghu and was taken in by me. He didn't doubt it either."
Xiao Chengyi laughed: "If you think so, you are too naive."
Yan Jingxuan frowned and asked with some confusion: "Why?"
Xiao Chengyi shook his head and sighed: "You were injured yesterday while saving Chu Chu. This alone has violated His Majesty's taboo. How can the future crown prince be influenced by a woman of unknown origin?
Although he didn't show anything, he actually had murderous intentions towards Chu Chu. I invited you here to tell you that I have already planned to send Chu Chu back to Nanyue, and she will not go back with you."
Yan Jingxuan was startled, his expression was very surprised, as if he had never thought that this day would come so unexpectedly, he asked in a panic: "Are you overthinking it?"
Xiao Chengyi said: "Even if I think too much, this is not a place for her to stay for a long time. If it is for her own good, let her go."
Yan Jingxuan shook his hands, and his heart became confused. He knew that what Xiao Chengyi said was right, and he also knew that keeping Chuchu alone for one more day would put her in even more danger.
But he really couldn't let her go,
But he couldn't be so selfish. He finally gave up the struggle and asked in a low voice: "When do you plan to send her away?"
"tomorrow."
When Yan Jingxuan heard Xiao Chengyi's answer, his heart fell to the bottom. He frowned and asked, "So soon? Can't we keep her for a few more days?"
Xiao Chengyi said: "No."
Yan Jingxuan: "..."
He looked at Xiao Chengyi, and when he saw his resolute expression, he knew that the matter was not negotiable. He asked again: "Where is she? Since she is leaving, you should let me see her and say goodbye to her in person, right?"
Xiao Chengyi did not refuse and replied: "She is at Yan Yan's place."
Yan Jingxuan stood up and was about to leave, but heard Xiao Chengyi's voice: "My cousin is willful and proud. As long as you drive her away, she won't stay."
Yan Jingxuan paused, wondering why he didn't know what Xiao Chengyi meant. He smiled bitterly and pretended to be relaxed: "Don't worry, I know how to do it."
After leaving these words, he left Tingfeng Court and headed towards Mu Yun'an's Shuiyun Residence.
Chu Chu had been depressed since she came back. She was lying on the table listlessly. Mu Yun'an tried to persuade her for a long time to no avail and finally had to follow her.
Until Yuli walked in and said, "Miss, Prince Yan is here."
As soon as she finished speaking, Chu Chu suddenly sat up, then turned around and ran out. She looked at Yan Jingxuan standing in the courtyard and asked happily: "Yan Jingxuan, are you here to take me back?
