Xiao Xu pursed his lips, his eyes were full of pity, and he said in a low voice: "Okay." You didn't cry, can you tell me what happened? ”

At the critical moment, when she was alone, Chu Junlan was still able to straighten her back and grit her teeth, but once she met her with such tenderness, her tense nerves relaxed, and her heart defense was quickly crushed by gentleness.

I didn't want to show my vulnerable side, but I couldn't help the tears.

Chu Junlan smiled reluctantly, seeing that Zi Yan, Bao Le, and Jing Yu were all looking at him with solemn faces, thinking that this matter had already reached the front of the palace, I was afraid that it would be impossible to hide it, so he whispered what happened to Xiao Xu.

Her voice was gentle, and when she lowered her voice, she spoke with a sweet sense of confiding, which made people feel extremely comfortable listening to it.

It's just that although her tone is calm, Xiao Xu can feel her anxiety and eagerness.

"My eldest brother was stabbed by Ma Yan, and now I don't know whether he lives or dies, Ma Yan has been arrested...... Shizi, I ...... now I was really panicked. ”

She didn't know if her eldest brother would be treated, but the situation at that time, the matter of the emperor's imperial gift would immediately arouse the vigilance of the guards, and they would definitely strengthen the garrison of Fushouyuan, if she delayed any longer, it would be difficult to escape. One of their brothers and sisters has already been injured, and Chu Huating can also explain that it is to save the driver, if she is caught, she will not be able to explain it with a hundred mouths.

Although the reason was clear, she fled, leaving her brother there, and the guilt and worry in the letter exploded, which really tormented her physically and mentally.

Xiao Xu looked down at the pitch-black head that was close at hand, and the movement of her lower head seemed to be obediently leaning on his arms, and the distance between the two just made him smell the faint fragrance mixed with the medicinal fragrance on her body.

Xiao Xu's heart was full of pity, and when he came back to his senses, he had already taken Chu Junlan into his arms.

Chu Junlan thought deeply and was defenseless at all, and was gently led by Xiao Xu to lean on a solid chest, her cheek resting on his shoulder, listening to the heartbeat that changed from calm to rapid, breathing in an unfamiliar cold breath, she didn't want to dodge for a moment.

Since she came to this world, she has been facing all kinds of dangers and troubles, even if she has amazing abilities, she is just an ordinary person. If they could, who wouldn't want to live a peaceful life?

Chu Junlan closed his eyes, buried his face in his shoulders, and hugged Xiao Xu's thin waist with both hands.

Xiao Xu's heartbeat was getting faster and faster, but the happiness overflowing from his heart made him feel like he was in a hot spring, hugging her tightly, bowing his head and gently kissing the top of her hair at an angle she couldn't see.

"Don't be afraid, I'll help you think of ideas."

Chu Junlan nodded sullenly.

At this moment, the picture of the two embracing each other was too warm and beautiful, and Zi Yan, Jing Yu, and Bao Le quietly avoided it.

Chu Junlan came back to her senses after a long time, straightened up and left his embrace, the crimson of her cheeks hidden by the night.

"The prince should leave first. At this time, since the trouble has reached the front of the emperor, it is impossible to be good. I think that the emperor will send someone to my house soon, and you will be implicated here. ”

Xiao Xu shook his head: "I'm not afraid of any involvement, I'm also from the royal family, and I'm your fiancé, so I can protect you here." ”

Chu Junlan looked up at his extremely serious handsome face, and couldn't help pinching his cheeks: "I understand your kindness, but if you are also trapped here and your movement is blocked, how can you help me?" The emperor is thunderous and angry, and the means must be tough, I'm afraid that our family will not end well, and we will need your help to move around then. ”

Xiao Xu frowned, he could already imagine what Chu Junlan was about to face, and he couldn't help but curse secretly, he couldn't wait to slash the gangster who pretended to be Chu Cailiang to stab him with a thousand knives!

"Okay." He sighed, "Don't worry, I will do my best to help you protect your eldest brother." ”

His words were entering her heart, if something happened to the Chu family, she would have the ability to escape in the worst case, and what she was most worried about now was the eldest brother who was trapped by the emperor's side and whose life and death were unknown.

"Thank you." There was water in the bright eyes, and the crystal in the night was pitiful.

Xiao Xu's heart was beating fast, his fists were clenched, and he suddenly bent over, leaned forward, and kissed her eyes.

Chu Junlan subconsciously closed her eyes, feeling his soft and dry lips fall on her eyelids, and when she touched it, her heart seemed to be suddenly lit with a fire, which instantly burned all over her body, and her cheeks and neck quickly became dry.

She has a feeling of being cherished, which makes her feel light all over.

Xiao Xu also blushed, opened his eyes a little uncomfortably, called out to Jingyu, who was hiding in the corner and was silent, and walked out of the gate of the guest house.

Chu Junlan lowered his head and touched his eyes, couldn't help but smile, then took a deep breath and instructed Zi Yan and Baole: "Get ready, the change will come soon, you put on thick clothes, eat and eat instead, and I don't know what will happen next." ”

Both nodded and hurriedly got ready. Zi Yan also dragged Chu Junlan to change into thicker clothes, and prepared a light cyan cloak of plain satin for Chu Junlan to drape, not only brought some of the various small pills that Chu Junlan had contained, but also hid dough cakes and snacks in his arms.

Chu Junlan was dressed neatly, so he sorted out his mood and quickly went to the outer courtyard. There weren't many servants and maidservants on the way, most of them had already fallen asleep, and only a few were still tidying up the mess after the meeting.

Everyone still doesn't know that the mountain rain is coming, and they still live their lives as usual.

It was dark in the study, and Chu Junlan quickly stepped forward and knocked on the door. No one in the room answered, she knew that Liang Hui must be nervous and didn't dare to speak, and said in a low voice: "It's me." ”

The door of the study was immediately pushed open with a "creak", and Liang Hui said nervously: "Third Miss!" ”

"Hmm." Chu Junlan walked into the house quickly and ordered, "Light the lamp." ”

"Yes."

Liang Hui seemed to have a backbone, and immediately took out the fire fold and blew it, and lit the silk lantern.

The warm orange light illuminates the furnishings of the room, casting a thick black shadow on the floor next to the table and chair.

Chu Junlan picked up the silk lantern and walked quickly to the side, and saw that Chu Cailiang had been moved to the window ondol, lying on his back and sleeping.

Aunt Wang and Chu Mengying were still lying on the ground, but they were covered with thin quilts.

Liang Hui said with a bitter face: "There is a difference between men and women, and the little ones don't dare to move Aunt Wang and Second Miss rashly." ”

Chu Junlan smiled, took out a silver needle from the needle bag in his sleeve, and stabbed the three of them several times.

The three of them immediately moved at the same time.

The first to wake up was Chu Cailiang, he blinked, he didn't understand what was going on for a while, looked at the dimly lit room and asked vaguely, "Is this ...... What's wrong with me? ”

Chu Junlan sneered: "You were stunned, the official uniform and waist card and the document were stolen by Ma Yan, and Ma Yan borrowed your identity to enter the palace to assassinate the holy driver, and you have been arrested." ”
