When Liu Chupei woke up faintly, what caught her eye was the flickering candlelight in the house, she didn't react to where this was for a while, but she didn't feel like her own palace and the Xie family's wing, she blinked, trying to eliminate the discomfort of suddenly seeing the light.

She tried to sit up, her hand was just supporting the edge of the bed, and before she could exert her strength, suddenly there was a pain in her hand, her hand could not support it, and the whole person fell down again.

This alarmed the maid on duty at night, and the maid pushed the door in, "The princess is awake?"

"Water. Liu Chupei avoided the injured wrist and propped herself up with her arm, and the maid immediately came over to help her up, let her lean against the head of the bed, and then turned around to make a cup of tea.

The tea seems to have been replaced not long ago, and it tastes a little warm.

"Where is this?" Liu Chupei looked at her bandaged hands, in a trance, remembering that she seemed to have seen Wang Yanzhi before, she remembered that he saved him, "It was Yanzhi who saved me?"

The servant girl looked at her puzzled.

"Is it Wang Ying?" Liu Chupei immediately changed his words, a little strange, didn't everyone know his other name?

The maidservant only smiled and did not speak.

"What about the others?" Liu Chupei kicked off the quilt and prepared to get out of bed.

"The princess will find the master again in the unknown day, now that it is ugly, the princess should rest. The maid stepped forward and was not prepared to let her out of bed.

"It's so late. Liu Chupei thought about it and gave up, "What's your name?"

The maidservant only smiled, but did not answer, "Rest early, princess." Then he turned and left.

He has a strange temper at times, and so does his subordinates.

Liu Chupei lay down again, nestled in the quilt, tossing and turning, a little unable to sleep, thinking about the scenes of the day, she shrunk her body and hid herself in the dark.

She closed her eyes and fell into a nightmare that she couldn't get rid of.

In the spring of the fifth year of the Ming Dynasty.

Liu Chupei, who had just changed into his winter clothes, was running wantonly in the palace in a new dress, and the Xiangnu behind him followed with his calves.

"Princess, princess, where are you going?" Xiangnu ran out of breath, couldn't hold on, and stopped.

"You go back, I'll come back later, I'll go to play with Uncle Huang, and Uncle Huang brought me something good. Liu Chupei saw that the Xiangnu couldn't keep up with her, so she happily ran over, leaving only the overwhelmed Xiangnu alone.

Liu Chupei walked out of the palace smoothly with the palace card, and before he could get into the carriage, he was stopped by a person who came in a hurry.

"Where are you going?"

"Xie Heng?" Liu Chupei looked at him suspiciously, "Why are you here?"

"Where are you going?" he did not answer her, but only repeated what he had just said, seeing that she was in a hurry, and did not know where to go.

"I have something to go out, isn't the spring banquet tomorrow, what are you doing with me today?" Liu Chupei was not ready to talk nonsense with him, and got into the carriage at once, "I can't accompany you today, I have something to do."

I'll come back and talk about it tomorrow. ”

"Why don't you go out with some people?" he glanced back and forth at the carriage, and there was no one but the coachman.

"I'll go and go back, what to do with so many people, trouble. Liu Chupei glanced at him indifferently, lifted the sedan curtain and sat in, "Let's go." ”

She didn't tell the truth, Uncle Huang said that he brought her good things today, and said that she could go alone, don't bring others, and don't tell others, Xiangnu should not be considered an outsider, just tell it, but Xie Heng can't, if he knows, he must be noisy and shouting to go with him.

Xie Heng stood aside and watched her carriage slowly move into the distance.

If he knew what was going to happen to her, he would have stopped her from going or followed her.

But where are there so many ifs in the world, he still watched things happen after all.

Liu Chupei thought that he could get another good thing and hummed a little song in the carriage excitedly, "Do you know what treasure Uncle Huang brought me?" Liu Chupei lifted the sedan curtain and asked the coachman with a curious expression.

The coachman was about fifty years old, Liu Chupei had seen it once or twice in the Huaiyang Palace, and she knew that this coachman was someone from the emperor's uncle's side, so she got into the carriage so reassuringly.

The princess laughed, how could the old slave know that the prince loved the princess so much, and the nature he could bring to the princess was excellent. The coachman looked at her kindly with a smile on his face.

"Uncle Huang treats me well, every time he has something good, he clers to me, and the royal brother is jealous of me. Liu Chupei lifted her sleeves, and on her wrist was a bracelet made of blood jade, which was given to her by her uncle not long ago, she liked it tightly, and she had been wearing it on her hand these days.

"The prince is naturally very good at treating the princess. The coachman looked straight ahead, the kind eyebrows just now gradually disappeared, and the corners of his lips were coldly hooked in a place that Liu Chupei couldn't see.

The Huaiyang Palace's distance from the palace was only half a quarter of an hour's work, and as soon as the carriage stopped, Liu Chupei eagerly jumped out of the carriage and ran towards the palace, "Uncle Huang!

"Chu Pei is here?" Liu Yu was sitting in the courtyard, drinking tea and resting, when he heard Liu Chupei's voice from a distance, and as soon as the words fell, he saw a red figure running over.

Liu Chupei stopped in front of him panting, his face flushed.

"What are you doing in such a hurry?" Liu Yu made a cup of tea and handed it to her, "Things won't run." ”

"I'm not afraid that Uncle Huang will be in a hurry. Liu Chupei took the tea and took a sip, squinting his eyes in satisfaction.

"Don't worry, I've been very idle these two days, but I don't have anything to do. Liu Yu stood up, "Let's go, I'm not in a hurry, but you can't wait." He hooked her nose.

Liu Chupei stuck out his tongue, "Uncle Huang, what did you bring back?" She tugged at his sleeve and said coquettishly.

"What?

The child still hasn't changed at all.

Liu Chupei smiled awkwardly.

Liu Yu led her to the right side of the courtyard.

"Uncle Huang, isn't your study on the left, what are you doing on the right?" Liu Chupei slowed down his steps and pulled Liu Yu's sleeve.

"Oh. Liu Yu explained: "I haven't had time to put things in the study, and they're still in my room." ”

"That's right. Liu Chupei was a little strange, but he didn't think too much about it, so he followed.

"Uncle Huang has something good here, have you told others?"

"No, no, no. Liu Chupei's head shook like a rattle, for fear that Liu Yu would not believe it, so he immediately said: "I didn't tell any of the imperial brothers and sisters, even when I met Xie Heng when I just left the palace, I didn't tell him." ”

She looked at him proudly, with a light in her eyes, as if to say, I'm good, praise me.

Liu Yu's eyebrows frowned slightly, but he didn't let Liu Chupei notice it, he looked at her with a smile on his face, "Oh? Then did you tell Xie Heng that you came to Uncle Huang?"

"Nope. Liu Chupei pursed his lips, "I won't tell him, his ass follows me all day long, and when the time comes, let him know that Uncle Huang has a treasure here, won't he rely on me." ”

Liu Yu's eyebrows relaxed, and he gently hooked his lips.

Liu Chupei thought he was laughing at her, "Uncle Huang, don't laugh, Xie Heng I know that he is such a person." ”

"Uncle Huang naturally knows, the two of you have grown up together, and I have watched the two of you grow up, and I still know the temperament of the two of you. He paused, "Alright, it's here." ”

Liu Chupei stood at the door and hesitated, Uncle Huang's bedroom, it was a little inappropriate for her to go in.

"What's wrong?" Liu Yu saw that Liu Chupei, who was still elated just now, was a little quiet in a blink of an eye, and turned his head to ask.

"No, it's nothing, or Uncle Huang will take it out, I'll take a look here." "Anyway, it's all the same, not everywhere.

"What's the matter, even Uncle Huang has to be on guard?" Liu Yu frowned and looked at her sadly.

"No, no, no. Liu Chupei hurriedly shook his head, "I'm afraid it's not appropriate for me to enter the emperor's bedroom." ”

"Oh, our Chu Pei is also beginning to understand the difference between men and women?" Liu Yu chuckled and quipped, "It seems that he has indeed grown up." ”

Liu Chupei was so ashamed that his face turned red by three points.

"In Uncle Huang's heart, you have always been a child who has not grown up. He rubbed her head, "With Uncle Huang, you will never have to worry about it so much." ”

Liu Chupei's heart warmed, let go of the worries in his heart, ran forward happily, and couldn't wait to push open his door, Liu Yu followed closely.

As soon as Liu Chupei opened the door, he saw a coral tree as tall as her, and the sunlight outside shone through, as if it had a jewel-like luster, Liu Chupei's eyes lit up, and he kept jumping around excitedly.

"Uncle Huang, Uncle Huang, this coral tree is going to be given to me?

Liu Chupei looked at him expectantly.

"Otherwise, do you like it?"

"I like it!" she touched and looked at it again, and couldn't put it down, "Uncle Huang, did you go to the sea a few days ago?

"It's good if you like it, Uncle Huang didn't go to the sea, he found it in a nearby fishing village, this complete coral tree, it's really rare to find a good color, but I remember you mentioned it before, so I bought it for you. ”

"I'm going to keep it next to my bed so I can see it every day when I wake up and go to sleep. "It's not that she hasn't seen a coral tree before, but it's just a small one, it's the first time she's seen such a big one, thinking that this coral tree is her own, she feels good, and when the time comes, she can go to the imperial brother and Xie Heng to show off.

"I'll send someone to send you back first, and when you return to the palace, you'll be able to see you immediately." Liu Yu called two guards over and moved the coral tree out.

"Be careful, don't stumble. Liu Chupei followed out worriedly, chattering all the time.

Before she could step out of the door, she felt her hand suddenly grabbed, and she turned her head, "Uncle Huang, what's wrong?"

"You're just leaving?" Liu Yu raised his eyebrows, "Don't thank Uncle Huang either?"

"Thank you, Uncle Huang. Liu Chupei smiled obediently.

"There's no sincerity at all. Liu Yu slowly approached her, closed the door, and his voice was not as low as just now, "Would you like to thank Uncle Huang, huh?"

Liu Chupei was a little panicked, he felt that the imperial uncle at this moment was like two people who had just been judged.
