Qiu Chuyan's smile paused, and then quickly withdrew his hand.

Two blush rose on her flower-like cheeks, making her white and lovely.

Fu Rinxu held the handkerchief and was unconsciously stunned.

"Autumn lady, what does this mean?"

Qiu Chuyan raised a pair of round eyes and pointed to his face with a finger.

"Your Highness's face."

Fu Rinxu immediately understood what she meant, and immediately wiped his cheeks with a handkerchief.

"Thank you, Autumn Lady."

The soaked handkerchief rubbed on the face, cool and silky, and there was a faint fragrance of hibiscus flowers.

After a while, Fu Rinxu finally wiped it clean.

But the veil finally couldn't be seen.

Fu Rinxu put the handkerchief in his arms and said to Qiu Chuyan, "This handkerchief is dirty, wait for this king to wash it and then return it to Qiu Niangzi."

Qiu Chuyan nodded, "The food is going to be cold, Your Highness, please use it."

The dishes are steaming hot, and each dish is fragrant and delicious.

Fu Rinxu feasted and couldn't help but praise: "The craftsmanship of the Autumn Lady is a must, and the first time this king eats the food cooked by the Autumn Lady, he is amazing."

Qiu Chuyan was happy when she heard Fu Rinxu's praise, but she always felt a little inferior.

"Your Highness's praise is just some home-cooked food. Your Highness should not dislike rudeness."

"Corn and vegetables are all God's grace, not to mention that Qiu Niangzi's skillful hands make these ingredients so delicious, how can they be rude?"

Fu Rinxu said and picked up another pair of chopsticks before putting them in his mouth.

"In the king's heart, the delicacies of the mountains and the sea are far inferior to the common dishes."

"But His Royal Highness is the pride of the sky, and it is destined to be more appetizing for the delicacies of the mountains and seas, and the home-cooked dishes are just occasional spices to taste fresh."

Fu Rinxu smiled and put down his chopsticks.

"This king has always been a home-cooked dish in the delicacies of the mountains and seas."

Qiu Chuyan tilted his head and wondered, "Oh? What do you mean by that?" Z.br>

"This king is neither the eldest son of the emperor, nor the concubine of the queen, nor the perfect candidate for the emperor in the heart of the mother, nor the youngest son of the father. Therefore, this king is a home-cooked dish in this delicacies of the mountains and seas, although it is inconspicuous, but it can occasionally be remembered."

Fu Rinxu sees things thoroughly, but he doesn't like to compete by nature, which is destined to make him less important among the princes.

Although Fu Rinxu's tone was relaxed, Qiu Chuyan's natural empathy made her feel that Fu Rinxu was hiding something on her mind.

"The courtiers think that no matter what the dish is, there will always be people who appreciate its deliciousness, so they don't have to mind whether it is a delicacy from the mountains and seas or a home-cooked dish."

Qiu Chuyan spoke softly, but she could give Fu Rinxu an invisible power.

He smiled, "Autumn Lady can always let this king see the best side of this world."

Fu Rinxu remembered all the hardships she had experienced, and saw the light in her eyes, and suddenly felt very sorry for her.

I am still scarred, but I am still healing others.

He thought to himself, if there is really a fairy in this world, then Qiu Chuyan must be a fairy who fell into the world.

This meal was the deepest and happiest conversation they had ever had since they lived together.

At night, Fu Rinxu carefully cleaned the square handkerchief and hung it on the table.

Next to the veil, there is a painting of a beauty.

And the painting is Qiu Chuyan under the brilliant stars on the night of the New Year's Eve.

Even though he had seen her humiliated and broken, he still remembered only her most beautiful and dazzling moments.

Fu Rinxu picked up the scroll, carefully rolled it, and put it into the porcelain vase.

In the early morning of the next day, Fu Rinxu got up and prepared to return the handkerchief to Qiu Chuyan.

But no matter how he knocked on the door, it was quiet in the east wing.

Suddenly, a bad premonition appeared in Fu Rinxu's heart.

He kicked the door open, only to find it empty.

"Not good

。」

Fu Rinxu clenched his veil tightly, and began to look around for Qiu Chuyan like crazy.

Could it be that Yuan Mingzhe went and returned, and kidnapped Qiu Chuyan in the middle of the night?

Fu Rinxu didn't dare to continue to think about it, he hated that he shouldn't have slept so deeply, otherwise he wouldn't have heard the movement of the opposite wing.

At this moment, he was scared.

He was afraid that he hadn't protected her.

Just as he was searching to no avail, and was on the verge of collapse, a scream came from the pond in the garden.

"Ahh

Fu Rinxu could hear that this was Qiu Chuyan's voice.

As if grasping at a cliff straw, he hurried to the garden.

The lotus flowers and lotus leaves in the pond completely cover the pond water, but the cry for help inside can be heard clearly.

Fu Rinxu saw a pair of white silk shoes on the shore, and immediately recognized that they were Qiu Chuyan's.

Without thinking much of it, he jumped off the pond.

The water in this pond is deep, and the lotus flowers are luxuriant, so Fu Rinxu can only follow the gradually faint cries for help.

"Your Highness, save ...... Help!"

Qiu Chuyan didn't know how to water, she could only stretch out her arms, expose half of her head, and flutter in the water and call for help with all her might.

Finally, Fu Rinxu saw Qiu Chuyanlu's arm as white as a lotus root on the water surface in the depths of the lotus.

"Chu Yan, I'm here to save you."

Fu Rinxu struggled to swim towards Qiu Chuyan, but the staggered flower stems and green leaves hindered his speed.

Seeing Qiu Chuyan's arm gradually sinking, Fu Rinxu was anxious.

When she was in danger, Fu Rinxu grabbed her arm.

After a long time, Fu Rinxu finally dragged Qiu Chuyan out of the labyrinthine pond.

On the empty bluestone slab, Qiu Chuyan's face was pale and paralyzed.

Fu Rinxu looked at the unconscious Qiu Chuyan, and he didn't care about the defense of men and women, so he immediately folded his hands between her breasts and pressed it.

His eyes were red, and he said while pressing, "Chu Yan, you must not have anything to do, wake up quickly!"

Seeing that Qiu Chuyan hadn't woken up yet, Fu Rin didn't think about it, pinched Qiu Chuyan's nose and kissed her pink lips to cheer her up.

With cold and soft lips intersecting, Qiu Chuyan slowly opened his eyes.

She opened her eyes to look at Fu Rinxu in front of her, and her lips felt his trembling and force.

She pushed Fu Rinxu's chest.

And Fu Rinxu also left her pink lips in an instant.

"Chu Yan, you're awake."

Fu Rinxu's hanging heart finally fell to the ground.

He hugged Qiu Chuyan, who had just sat up, imprisoned her arms and hugged her tightly into his arms.

"Chu Yan, I almost thought I had lost you."

Fu Rinxu's tone was full of grievances, like a little lady complaining to her husband.

Qiu Chuyan was still a little dazed, but she knew that Fu Rinxu was really frightened.

She said apologetically, "Your Highness, I'm sorry. I just wanted to come and pick some lotus flowers for you and make a lotus feast, but I never thought that the little wooden boat I was riding would suddenly overturn."

Fu Rinxu let go of Qiu Chuyan, grabbed her shoulders, and looked at her in disbelief.

"You went into the pond to make me a lotus feast?"

Qiu Chuyan nodded blankly, "Hmm."

Fu Rinxu was stunned for a moment, then showed his white teeth and laughed, "Silly girl, you are not allowed to do such a dangerous thing in the future, even if it is for me, you can't endanger your own safety, you know?"

Qiu Chuyan nodded obediently.

"It's cold on the ground, I'll go get you shoes."

Fu Rinxu got up and went to the shore to get the white silk shoes.

And Qiu Chuyan sat on the bluestone slab, and unconsciously reached out and touched the lips that had been kissed by Fu Rinxu just now.

It just so happened that Fu Rinxu came over and put her shoes at her feet.

Qiu Chuyan raised his eyes and asked, "Your Highness, just ...... ...... me."

Fu Rinxu looked at her innocent eyes, and a trace of guilt suddenly rose in his heart.

He hurriedly said, "I didn't mean to belittle you, but it was urgent."

"Your Highness doesn't need to panic, the courtiers understand."

Qiu Chuyan interrupted him and gave him a gentle smile back.

But she suddenly remembered something, and became sad again.

"But my lotus flowers are all gone."

Fu Rinxu lowered his head and pondered for a while, then turned his head to look at the turquoise pink and white of the pool.

"I'll pick it."

With that, he turned and walked towards the pond.

I only heard a "plop" sound!

Fu Rinxu jumped into the water.

"Your Highness!"

Qiu Chuyan was taken aback.

But when she got up and stepped barefoot on the bluestone slab to look at the pond, Fu Rinxu was picking a lotus flower in full bloom.

The orange sun shines on the water of the pond and ripples with golden threads.

Fu Rinxu waved the lotus flower in his hand to Qiu Chuyan, smiling brightly and frankly.

After a while, Fu Rinxu picked enough lotus flowers and swam towards the shore.

Qiu Chuyan took a handful of lotus flowers and naturally stretched out his hand to him.

His brain was stunned for a moment, but his hand was on Qiu Chuyan's hand without hesitation.

Fu Rinxu climbed up wet, his cold hands touching Qiu Chuyan's warm little hands, and even his breathing was cautious.

When he came up, the two of them let go of their hands.

Qiu Chuyan said embarrassedly, "The courtiers are troublesome to Your Highness again."

Fu Rinxu picked up a bouquet of lotus flowers on the ground and held it to his chest, "This king doesn't feel troublesome, but if Qiu Niangzi has been so unfamiliar and polite, this king is afraid that he will not dare to bother Qiu Niangzi to cook in the future."

"This king already regards Qiu Niangzi as a confidant in his heart, but Qiu Niangzi is always polite to this king, is Qiu Niangzi so cautious when she gets along with Princess Ling?"

Qiu Chuyan pursed her lips, "Courtier......

Fu Rinxu obviously felt that she seemed to be worried about something, so he smiled.

"Didn't the autumn lady say that she wanted to make a lotus banquet for this king? Let's go, this king will give Qiu Niangzi a hand."

Qiu Chuyan raised his head and met Fu Rinxu's gentle smile, and the haze that flashed in his heart also dissipated.

"Okay."

The two walked side by side wet in the sun, a cluster of lotus flowers delicate, trembling slightly with Fu Rinxu's footsteps.

The water droplets fell on their bodies, but the two of them talked and laughed, and they didn't care at all.

After nightfall, Fu Rinxu sat under the window and looked at a plate of golden and crispy lotus cakes placed on the small square table on the couch.

The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and all that flashed in his mind was Qiu Chuyan's appearance.

Before he knew it, he seemed to have fallen in.

But he suddenly remembered Qiu Chuyan's preoccupied appearance today.

It seems that Yuan Mingzhe's harm to her is still the most difficult hurdle in her heart to cross.

He looked at the lotus crisp flower heart, and his thoughts gradually drifted back to the day he rescued Qiu Chuyan from the carriage. Qiu Chuyan's smile paused, and then quickly withdrew his hand.

Two blush rose on her flower-like cheeks, making her white and lovely.

Fu Rinxu held the handkerchief and was unconsciously stunned.

"Autumn lady, what does this mean?"

Qiu Chuyan raised a pair of round eyes and pointed to his face with a finger.

"Your Highness's face."

Fu Rinxu immediately understood what she meant, and immediately wiped his cheeks with a handkerchief.

"Thank you, Autumn Lady."

The soaked handkerchief rubbed on the face, cool and silky, and there was a faint fragrance of hibiscus flowers.

After a while, Fu Rinxu finally wiped it clean.

But that veil also

Finally, I can't watch it.

Fu Rinxu put the handkerchief in his arms and said to Qiu Chuyan, "This handkerchief is dirty, wait for this king to wash it and then return it to Qiu Niangzi."

Qiu Chuyan nodded, "The food is going to be cold, Your Highness, please use it."
