"I'm only for the royal brother, because I know that I was born in a heavenly family, and it is really difficult to keep that pure family affection. I value feelings more than power, so I've always thought that even if I need to give up power one day in the future, as long as I can maintain that rare family affection, it will be possible. It's just unexpected, behind what I think is sincere family affection, there is hatred. ”

After reading the diary recorded by Ping'er, the maid of the Empress Dowager of St. Ann, this is the first time that Xiao Cuo has taken the initiative to talk about his thoughts.

Fu Ying's heart ached, but at this moment, any words seemed extremely pale, and she couldn't comfort Xiao Cuo at all, the corners of her lips twitched, and in the end she just held his hand, sighing and calling his name, "Ah Cuo." ”

Xiao Cuo took a deep breath to adjust his emotions, and then smiled, "You are right, in fact, it is not harmful for me to join forces with the emperor to get rid of the second prince first, as for the future road, let's take one step at a time, you can rest assured, I am not a pedantic person, even if it is not for myself, for you, and for you and I to be able to stay together, I will not foolishly use human nature to make bets, I don't care about the position of power, it doesn't mean that others don't care." What if my concessions don't get family affection, but instead cause death? Now, for the sake of self-preservation, I will not back down. ”

It was really Fu Ying's sentence "I will always be with you" that woke him up in an instant. If you continue to feel sorry for your mother-in-law, I'm afraid he will hurt his little fool because of his indecision.

"I know you're a sensible person. Are you going to see Prime Minister Sima later? ”

Xiao Cuo said: "You have to go, the matter explained by the imperial brother is not trivial." I'm going to talk to him beforehand. "And during the period of time when they rode their horses, the emperor should have finished saying something to Sima Xin.

Fu Ying said: "You can go now, and let the guards send me back to the palace." ”

"I'll send you anyway. Anyway, there is no rush at this time. Xiao mistakenly barred the horse and walked back to the city, placing Fu Ying on his lap along the way, for fear of bumping her, he sent people into the palace and handed them over to Luzhu, and arranged for the guards of the gold group and the fire group to stay behind, so he took Ah Yuan and Archer out of the palace and went to Sima Xin's mansion.

Fu Ying waited for Xiao Cuo in the palace, and this was a night.

The next morning, Xiao Cuo came back in a hurry, and accompanied Fu Ying to change his clothes after dinner. instructed Fu Ying: "The emperor has already acted." Now that the second prince is missing, I have also arranged for people to surround the queen's Kunning Palace. I have also mobilized the army in the capital to impose martial law, I am afraid that the outside will not stop for a few days, I will leave the guards of the three groups of gold, wood and water by your side to protect you. You obediently stay in the house of the Heart Cultivation Palace, and don't walk around. When I capture the second prince alive and come back, I will take you home. ”

Fu Ying didn't sleep well all night. Unexpectedly, the situation in the capital has changed so dramatically in the time of one night.

"It seems that the emperor has really made up his mind. This time you want to capture the second prince in one fell swoop? ”

Xiao staggered his head, "The imperial brother should have been deployed a long time ago, and his mind has been decided." ”

Fu Ying's nervous palms were in a cold sweat.

Her sixth sense has always been keenly to ordinary people, and she has a hunch that this time Xiao is wrong, and it will definitely turn the capital upside down. At this time, Fu Ying complained that he didn't know martial arts. If she had the two strokes of the green bamboo, she could go with Xiao Cuo now, and she didn't have to stare in the palace. Xiao Cuo's most trusted guards were grouped according to the five elements, with six people in each group, and three groups of people were allocated to protect her at once. Not only could she not help, but she also had to involve Xiao Cuo's energy.

Fu Ying frowned reproachfully, but couldn't say anything.

personally took the silver white cloud brocade arrow sleeve python robe from Ah Yuan's hand and changed it for Xiao Cuo, straightened out the placket, and put on the purple gold and white jade buckle for him. Then put on a scarlet cloak for him.

The person in the silver-white python robe and scarlet cloak is long and jade, and the ape arm bee waist is quite hearty like a fairy. He raised his slender sword eyebrows obliquely, and a smile appeared in his sparkling eyes. Laughing like Langyue in his arms, he is describing him at this time.

Fu Ying smiled back and handed him the sword with both hands.

Xiao Cuo took the long sword. The bright red tasseled sword spikes naturally hung down on the corners of the robe, blending in with the scarlet cloak.

"Take care of yourself, you don't have to worry about me here."

"I know."

"The second prince, it's good to be able to catch it, but if you can't catch it, you don't have to be anxious at this time. It's important that you keep yourself safe first. ”

"Got it, little fool." Big hands cared against her cheeks.

At this time, Fu Ying suddenly felt that her eyes were hot, her nose was sour, and tears were rolling in her eyes, she secretly despised her fragility in her heart, where could she make trouble for him at this juncture. She forced herself to squeeze out a smile.

As everyone knows, it is this appearance of holding back tears and smiling at him that touches his heart the most.

Xiao Cuo pulled the person in his arms, flicked the scarlet cloak with his long arm to cover the heads and faces of the two, and the other hand tightly wrapped Fu Ying's flexible and slender waist, rubbing her lips with his lips and invading her mouth with his tongue.

is different from the usual gentle and sometimes joking, the kiss at this time does not have the slightest lust, but it can knead Fu Ying's heart more. She was kissed and had difficulty breathing, and her lotus arm grabbed Xiao Cuo's neck so that she would not soften, put aside her shyness, and tried to respond to his enthusiasm.

Ah Yuan, Zhenyu and Luzhu on the side all bowed down with red faces and lowered their eyes. At the same time, some sadness and helplessness rose uncontrollably in the hearts of the three of them. What a good pair of fairy couples, why do they have to face such an unpeaceful world, is it so difficult for them to stay together in a bland way?

Xiao Cuo slowly put down the cloak with rapid breathing, looked at Fu Ying's misty eyes and slightly red and swollen lips, and couldn't help but smile and kiss her forehead again: "I'm leaving." ”

Fu Ying's face had already turned into a red cloth, and even if there were a thousand words in his watery eyes, he could only turn into one sentence: "I'll wait for you." ”

"Good." The big hand slid playfully over her smooth cheeks, and then Xiao Cuo straightened his expression and turned to leave.

The scarlet cloak scurried away with him, unfurling a domineering banner behind him.

Fu Ying chased two steps, and finally stopped under the corridor, his right hand couldn't help but support the pillar, and saw his tall and straight figure walking away in the company of Ah Yuan and Archer, and then lowered his long eyelashes.

Luzhu and Zhenyu held Fu Ying's arm, and you persuaded and comforted me one by one: "Don't worry, princess, don't you know the prince's ability?" ”

"Yes, the prince is excellent in martial arts, he is just a thief, and he will definitely be caught."

Fu Ying smiled and nodded. But I thought: If only it could be so easy.

She didn't take the initiative to set foot in the queen's Kunning Palace, so she stayed in the back wing room of the Yangxin Palace under the protection of the three groups of guards, narrowing the scope of her activities to the bedroom.

Twelve hours had passed since the sunset and the stars had fallen, and when the morning sun rose again, there was no news of Xiao Wrong.

Fu Ying began to heat the ants on the pan and paced back and forth in the house.

In the evening, as soon as Fu Ying, who was tired of walking, lay down, there was a noise outside, and he vaguely heard that he was talking "how is the prince".

Fu Ying hurriedly embroidered his shoes and ran out, only to see that the person who came was the guard of the fire group who protected him a few days ago, and his clothes were covered with scars and blood at this time.

"Princess, something happened to the prince!" (To be continued.) )
