"What reason do I have to be bad about this?" Chu Junlan raised his delicate chin.

Xiao Xu lowered his head and looked at her softly, her stiff neck and mouth like this reminded him of the same cuteness when he looked up at him, making people want to touch their heads.

When Xiao Xu reacted, his hand had already fallen on her head and rubbed it.

Chu Junlan's eyes widened, and he sorted out his messed bangs in disbelief, "What are you doing?" The voice was soft and soft, non-threatening.

Xiao Xu couldn't help but laugh again.

When he laughed, there was a lying silkworm under his eyes, his eyes were shining in the room where he had never waited, and he had a very clean and youthful spirit, Chu Junlan found that his face was a little hot, so he opened his eyes uncomfortably, and turned around and led him to sit down on the warm kang near the window.

"I didn't see you change into your white clothes when I opened the window in the middle of the night."

"Yes, the Guogong Mansion is heavily guarded, not as before." In a different place, it's no longer a matter of casually trying to climb over the wall.

Thinking that he was going to be a thief, with a serious face, he walked around the wall like a thief with a serious face, Chu Junlan was amused again.

"I'll see your pulse. I'm running out of medicine I sent two days ago, right? Chu Junlan motioned for him to stretch out his hand.

"Well, there's one left."

Chu Junlan lowered his eyes and examined his hands, and smiled easily.

"It's not bad, it's stable at the moment, you can continue to take the medicine, I'll go back and configure it and then let Zi Yan send it to you."

"Okay." Xiao Xu's eyes were soft, "...... in your family"

"It's true that it was affected," Chu Junlan asked with a smile, "Your father was punished and thought about it behind closed doors at home, how is the situation at home?" ”

"It's okay," Xiao Xu felt that his answer was too simple, and added, "He did it on purpose, so he didn't worry, and he planted flowers in the greenhouse at home, which was very leisurely, but your father ......."

"My father also did it on purpose, but I guess he didn't expect that he would be impeached like this," Chu Junlan smacked his tongue, "How many enemies he has made." ”

"It's not all because of making enemies," Xiao Xu said in a low voice, "This is how things are in the court, if there are foreign enemies, the courtiers will naturally twist into a rope to unite with the outside world, and once the foreign enemies are gone, everyone has their own little Jiujiu in their hearts." Dayong has been peaceful and prosperous for many years, and the contradictions between civil officials and military generals have become more and more intense, and it is an indisputable fact that the emperor attaches more importance to civil ministers. ”

"Tsk, it's rare for our prince to say so much in one breath."

Chu Junlan got up and grabbed a honey-colored brocade cloak and draped it, the satin reflected a faint layer of soft light in the darkness.

In the dark, Xiao Xu looked at Chu Junlan's sparkling eyes, feeling as if he was pressed on the back of his hand by the kitten's soft meat pad, and his heart softened.

"It's not like I don't speak."

"Yes, our prince just doesn't like to talk useless nonsense. You're still very good at talking when necessary. ”

Xiao Xu nodded, then shook his head again: "It's not all like that. ”

"What?" Chu Junlan didn't understand what Xiao Xu meant for a while.

"It's also divided into whom, talking to you, saying nothing is nonsense." Xiao Xu lowered his head a little inexplicably.

Chu Junlan was stunned for a while when he heard this, and then the corners of his mouth that couldn't be suppressed rose: "Shizi's mouth is really sweet, where did you learn it?" Well? ”

Xiao Xu's face was flushed, but fortunately, the darkness hid the embarrassment at this time for him: "It's nothing, it's the truth." He blinked and forcibly changed the topic: "If something like this happens in your family, someone will definitely chew their tongues behind their backs, saying anything that will have an impact on our marriage, you don't have to take it to heart, I promised you that you are marrying a sedan chair, and you will not break your promise." ”

He lowered his voice, and his magnetic voice was particularly touching in the dead of night, Chu Junlan's heart moved slightly, and his cheeks couldn't help but redden.

"I know. Besides, things don't end up like that. No matter what, it's not good to change the things that have been decided, and the emperor has already let me change my family in order to let me have an identity worthy of your family, and your father won't slap the emperor in the face, right? ”

Xiao Xu smiled when he heard this: "Yes." ”

But having said that, both of them knew in their hearts that at this time, the opinions of the parties were not the most important, and the influence of external forces would be greater. It's just that Chu Junlan has a plan in his heart, and Xiao Xu also wants to solve this matter secretly, and he can't put any more pressure on Chu Junlan, so the two of them tacitly agreed that no one mentioned it.

Xiao Xu didn't dare to stay longer, and soon left. Chu Junlan didn't sleep all night, meditated cross-legged all night, and by dawn, some ideas had taken shape in his mind.

In the next two days, Chu Junlan only treated his eldest uncle as usual, and asked Zi Yan to go to the palace and send medicine to Xiao Xu.

The atmosphere in the house is becoming more and more depressing, and the originally warm and happy home is now like a black cloud pressing down on the city, with a knife hanging overhead.

When greeting her in the morning, the old lady said to the whole family seriously: "Now the family is a special period, and the specific situation must be known to the big guys." I won't say more. Right now, someone is making moves behind the scenes to plot against our family, in the early years, when Grandpa Guo was young, how many winds and waves, our family survived, and this time it was the same. ”

The old lady's voice was slow and calm, and it was calm and reassuring: "What about you, all relax, go out less these days, do what you have to do, I heard someone say, what Jinyiwei's Dongchang still wants to come to the house to raid the house?" Let's be honest, even if you do come, you won't be afraid of what you will become. There is the emperor above their heads, even if they really plan to do something, they have to take into account the emperor's thoughts. ”

In this way, everyone really settled down a lot.

But this peace of mind is also short-lived.

When Chu Junlan returned to the room, he had just picked up the embroidery needle and sewed two stitches, when a maidservant girl outside said back and forth: "Miss Lan, the prince invites you to go to the study in the outer courtyard." ”

"My father? Go now? Chu Junlan put down the embroidery in surprise.

"Yes, right now."

Chu Junlan got up suspiciously, and took Nuo Min and Zi Yan to the outer courtyard together.

Chu Hua was the only one in the study, and the chief entourage and the maidservant around him had already been dismissed, so Chu Junlan also left Zi Yan and Nuo Min outside.

"Father, do you have something to command?" Chu Junlan saluted respectfully.

Chu Hua smiled, pointed to the circle chair with an official green mattress laid out next to the window ondol and said, "Sit down and talk." ”

"Yes, thank you, father." Chu Junlan sat down sideways on the circle chair, just waiting to listen to the instructions.

Chu Hua thought for a while and said, "Sister Lan, in fact, I came to you today to discuss your marriage. ”

Chu Junlan raised his eyes and looked calm.

Chu Hua said: "Now that the situation in the DPRK and China is becoming more and more tense, I am afraid that the charge of treason will soon fall on my head, while there is no turmoil in the family now, it is better for me to discuss with King Gongding first, and the marriage between you and King Gongding will be done before the year." ”

Chu Junlan's heart was shocked, she had thought about whether Chu Hua would sacrifice her marriage, but she never thought that Chu Hua would think about the future for her before she was convicted.
