"En, serve the dishes!"

As soon as the dishes were served, Chu Qingyao came out feeling refreshed. Seeing her wiping her hair as she walked, Xuanyuan Zhi took the towel, "I'll help you."

She sat down obediently, her heart was in a state of turmoil. In order to ease the atmosphere, she purposely said, "Xuanyuan Zhi, have you helped others before?"

Xuanyuan Zhi pressed her head, obviously unhappy. "I'm not in the mood."

Chu Qingyao could only giggle and dissolve her embarrassment. Although his movements were gentle, they were obviously unfamiliar. It was likely that in his entire life, he had never served anyone before!

After using four towels for a whole day, he dried his hair. He put down the towel and walked to the table to sit down. Seeing that Chu Qingyao was still standing there, he asked in dissatisfaction, "You're not going to eat?"

"Eat!" Chu Qingyao hurried over and passed the chopsticks to him, "Prince, let's eat."

"Chu Qingyao, call me by my name." He stared at her.

Chu Qingyao opened her mouth, but this time she was unable to say anything. She hadn't forgotten how she had angered him into a coma by calling his name.

"Chu Qingyao, I permit you to call me by name." She was speechless. If you don't make me do it, I won't stop shouting!

The two of them ate for almost two hours.

"This King will sleep here tonight." Xuanyuan Zhi's words made her freeze.

When she thought about the unclear relationship between Su Ruyi and herself, she wanted to escape. It was just an accident last time, if not for Aunt Mian wanting to help him and Su Ruyi out, the two of them would not have been tricked.

Xuanyuan Zhi got up and lied on the bed. It took her a long time before she finally managed to stand up and slowly crawl to the end of the bed. Refusing directly or accepting against one's will?

When she finally laid down, Xuanyuan Zhi chuckled and said, "Are you afraid of this king?"

"Not at all." She was stubborn.

"No?" Xuanyuan Zhi suddenly straightened his body and looked down at her.

His face came closer and closer, and the warm breath came over her like light feathers, brushing across her cheeks. She could not help but turn red, and her palms began to sweat. He finally moved and wanted to dodge. However, he caught her red-handed, as if she was immersed in his tyranny.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Her body stiffened as she hurriedly pushed him away. The knocking continued, and she had to push hard to sit up.

Xuanyuan Zhi's breath became unstable, he stared at her for two seconds before replying, "Who?"

"Your Highness, an urgent report has come from Jiangnan." Qi Sha's voice came in. Xuanyuan Zhi straightened his clothes and jumped, "Come in."

He took the emergency report, and coldly glared at Qi Sha, "You better pray that there's no danger involved, or else, you should know the outcome."

Qi Sha trembled, and knew that he had disturbed his prince's good fortune. He timidly handed over the report. He didn't even have the courage to look at the prince, so he could only lower his head and stand to the side.

Xuanyuan Zhi opened the emergency report. The letter was written by the Third Prince. He said that both he and the Second Prince were trying their best to help each other out, having no time to worry about other matters. However, they still encountered an assassination attempt.

He frowned, "Qi Sha, go to Jiangnan immediately and investigate fully whether the two princes are trying to kill each other, or if someone with ulterior motives is instigating a fight between them. If you want to speed up, you don't have to notify the Third Prince when you go. "

Qi Sha was startled, "Your Highness suspects …."

"Hurry up."

"This subordinate will take his leave." Qi Sha also knew that this matter was urgent. He immediately brought a few hidden guards and left the city overnight.

Being disturbed by Qi Sha, Chu Qingyao had already calmed down. She tidied up her clothes and went to sleep. Xuanyuan Zhi was worried about the safety of the two princes, and didn't have any other thoughts, as if he was talking to himself, "If something were to happen to the Second and Third Princes, who would benefit the most?"

"Fifth Prince." Chu Qingyao didn't even think about it.

There were only four princes in Tianchong, the second prince, third prince, fifth prince, and seventh prince. According to the rules that said 'when two princes meet with mishap, the one that is most qualified to inherit the throne is the Fifth Prince'.

Xuanyuan Zhi's eyes flashed with the emperor's willfulness, as he insisted on sending out the two princes. His heart trembled, could this matter have something to do with the emperor?

I hope he's overthinking it.

On the morning of the second day, Su Ruyi heard that brother Zhi had actually stayed in Blue Luan Courtyard and went to find him in a rage.

"Aunt Mian, if I were to ask you, how are you going to explain why brother Zhi treats me like this?" Back then, the marriage was arranged between you and my father. Three years ago, when he sent me back, my father was already furious.

Aunt Mian looked awkward. She thought Zhi Er wasn't back last night. With a smile, he replied, "Ru Yi, Aunt Mian will think of a way to get Chu Qingyao to leave."

Su Ruyi's face was gloomy and cold, "I want her to disappear forever." Only if she died would brother Zhi change his mind.

Aunt Mian shook his head, "Let me think of a way. Don't participate in this, or Zhi Er will blame you in the future." She only had one wish, and that was for Zhi Er to marry Ru Yi so that she could take revenge for her elder sister.

Dongfang Yanyue led a thousand guards and rushed to medical Sect under the escort of the number one expert of the Nine Moons Country. The moment they left the capital, she sent someone to the Guwu Men to invite Hua Qian Yan to come down.

The guards successfully entered the Paleo-Wushan, but were blocked outside the sect. After a round of questioning, the gatekeeping disciple knew that Zhang Xuan was looking for his mistress. He told Zhang Xuan to wait first before entering to inform Zhang Xuan.

After a while, Sect Leader Hua Ximo actually came out personally. He immediately recognized the person as a palace guard and his expression turned cold, "Who are you? My Guwu Men has never had any contact with the imperial family. Please go back!"

's famous bodyguard had heard of him before, so he said respectfully, "Sect Leader Hua, this subordinate is here on behalf of the princess to ask Lady Qian Yan to come down the mountain. The First Prince is currently in the midst of being sent to the medical Sect. The Princess knows that the Lady Qian Yan understands medical knowledge and wants him to help her take care of the First Prince. "

Hua Ximo face was filled with disdain. He actually came up with such a crappy excuse, was the Imperial Physician dead? "Guwu Men is preparing the marriage. Please pass on the message to the princess that I will be married off in the future. I really can't leave."

The guard was helpless, he could only leave Paleo-Wushan in a hurry, wanting to report back to the princess as soon as possible.

Hua Ximo secretly followed the guard. Seeing that he had indeed left, she felt at ease. Fang Jian went to help the hawker buy stuff, and upon returning, he saw the Sect Leader coming up the mountain.

"Xiaoshan, why did the Sect Leader go down the mountain? Why did he come back so quickly?" He asked the gatekeeping disciple.

"Master Fang, someone from the Nine Moons Country Palace came just now. He wants the princess to accompany the First Prince so that we can go to the medical Sect together."

"Oh!" Fang Jian returned to look for Hua Qian Yan.

"Senior Brother, did you buy the thing I wanted?" Hua Qian Yan was waiting for him in the yard.

"I'll buy it, I'll buy it. Hurry up and see if it's the one you were talking about." Fang Jian quickly handed over the comb in his hand over.

"It's this!" "Thank you, senior apprentice-brother." Hua Qian Yan looked at the horned comb in her hands with satisfaction and went into the house to comb her hair.

Fang Jian hesitated, he did not know whether he should tell her about the person from the palace. From the Sect Leader's attitude, he faintly felt that his Junior Martial Sister might have had a relationship with the First Prince. This was something he did not wish to see.

However, he was afraid that his Junior Martial Sister would be angry if she found out about it in the future. When his mistress had been killed, he had felt even worse than his juniors. He had watched as the perfectly fine girl had suddenly turned mute. At that time, he swore that he would take care of her for the rest of his life.

"Senior Brother, is something the matter?" Hua Qian Yan combed her hair, and saw that he was deep in thought the moment she came out.

"Huh?" When he came back to his senses, he was stunned by his junior sister. She was dressed in a pink dress, and her smile was like a flower. He didn't look away for a long time.

"Senior brother, you still haven't told me what happened to you?"

In the end, Fang Jian still told her about the guards from the palace. Hua Qian Yan's face changed, "Did the guards say what happened to the First Prince? Still unconscious? "

Seeing her so worried, Fang Jian regretted it, but he still forced himself to do it, "Junior Sister, I heard this matter from the gatekeeping disciple, please do not ask the Sect Leader."

"I know, thank you senior brother." Actually, after her brother had explained the situation to her, she had already known that it was impossible between her and Dongfang Shun. But why didn't he believe her?

In any case, Dongfang Shun was poisoned because he saved her, so it was natural for her to stay by his side. She looked at Fang Jian, "Senior Brother, I think... "Down the mountain."

Fang Jian's heart ached, and he said with a bitter smile, "Senior Brother will accompany you." Even if the Sect Leader knew about this, he would still be able to support him.

Hua Qian Yan's heart warmed, "Senior brother, aren't you afraid of being implicated by me?" Her brother forbade her from contacting Dongfang Shun again. Even if Senior Brother accompanied her down the mountain, he would still be scolded.

"As long as junior is happy, I'm not afraid of anything." Fang Jian pulled her hand, "We will sneak out from the back mountain. There will be fewer people there, we won't be discovered."

Five days later, they caught up with Dongfang Yanyue's team. Dongfang Yanyue was originally unhappy because Hua Qian Yan didn't come! Now that he saw her, his heart felt at ease. It seemed that his royal brother had not saved her once in vain.

But when she saw Fang Jian, she became slightly displeased, "Lady Qian Yan, this is?"

"Princess Yan Yue, this is my senior brother Fang Jian." She introduced him, then asked, "How is the First Prince?"

"Get in the car and see him!" Hua Qian Yan looked at Fang Jian, "Senior brother, I will get on first."

"Go!" Fang Jian laughed.

Qian Yan is like this, she must feel that she owes someone, if you don't let her return the favor, she will feel uneasy. Regardless of what she thought of the First Prince, he would never regret accompanying her on this trip.

He watched as his Junior Martial Sister jumped onto the carriage, and the carriage's curtain was put down. Fang Jian followed the carriage and walked forward, Princess Yan Yue could not help but ask, "Young Hero Fang, did you specially come to send off Lady Qian Yan?"

Fang Jian pretended not to hear the meaning behind her words and corrected her, "I'm not sending her off. I accompanied Yan Er out, and wanted to bring her back." He had declared his sovereignty and he was interested in Yan Er. Even if the other party was the First Prince, as long as Yan Er did not agree, no one could take her away.
