"Your Majesty." Chu Wanxiang smiled faintly, "After you finished talking, I'll take a walk with you?"

Chu Mobei glanced at Chu Mohan and nodded, "Okay."

Chu Wanxiang took Chu Mohan's arm and pushed him slowly towards the lake. Chu Mohan's legs were inconvenient, so he could only rely on her to push. Chu Wanxiang turned his head sideways and asked, "Brother Huang, I remember that you hate water very much, why do you want to sit on the boat and admire the moon today?"

"Because, I'm afraid." Chu Mohan said, "I'm afraid of water."

"I see." Chu Wanxiang sighed, "Did the imperial brother drown when he was a child?"

"Once. It was winter, and we had just moved into this mansion and our family was poor. In order to save money, my mother bought me clothes, shoes and socks, and climbed the mountain every morning to collect medicine to earn money, so I rarely had the opportunity to go out to play. Then there was a heavy snowfall, and I was playing and hiding in the bushes to watch the lanterns, but I fell into the water and drowned." Chu Mohan lowered his eyes, and his voice was low and hoarse, "Since then, I never want to swim again, let alone take a boat."

Chu Mobei glanced at her, as if he noticed that his mood swings were a little bigger, and touched her hair apologetically: "Xiangxiang ......"

"Brother Huang," Chu Wanxiang shook his head, "It's all over, let's forget what we should forget."

Chu Mobei nodded.

"Imperial Brother...... Chu Wanxiang hesitated for a moment and called him softly, "Are you really going to marry her?" You know, it's a trap."

Chu Mobei stopped and looked at her fixedly.

Chu Wanxiang looked at him calmly: "If I were you, I would never agree."

Chu Mohan's lips moved: "But, I can't live up to her......

Chu Wanxiang pursed her lips, her eyes flashing with a dark glow of pain and struggle.

"I...... I'll protect you." Chu Mohan reached out and held her hand, "You stay in the palace, I won't let anyone touch you."

"What about her?" Chu Wanxiang asked, "Don't you care about her anymore?"

"She's already a concubine, and she has nothing to do with me. Besides, she doesn't love me at all." Chu Mobei's eyes dimmed, "I can't let her ruin my life."

Chu Wanxiang gritted her teeth: "Since you are so persistent, then I respect you." But ......"

"Needless to say." Chu Mohan interrupted her and changed the subject, "You haven't eaten yet? Let's go to dinner first, and we'll talk about it later."

Qiulan had already been taken down, and Chu Mobei took her hand: "Hungry, let's go, I'll take you to eat."

He took her to a remote courtyard, which was the emperor's bedroom specially set aside for Chu Mohan.

The furnishings in the room are simple, except for a few clothes and beds, there is no other decoration, and even the tables, chairs and benches are made of wood, which is not luxurious.

Chu Mobei said: "I'm not used to palace meals, you can just get some food."

"Okay." Chu Wanxiang took out the food box. The food box is small but exquisite, containing four or five plates of shredded vegetables and meat.

"You eat." Chu Mobei said, "You haven't been awake for a long time, and you need to make up for it."

Chu Wanxiang handed him the chopsticks, and he served the bowl and drank the soup.

"You don't eat?" Chu Mobei looked at her in surprise, "The two of us have been separated for a year and a half, how do I know what you like to eat now."

"I'm full." Chu Wanxiang said.

Chu Mobei looked at her empty food box, frowned, and said, "Didn't you eat much?"

"Hmm." Chu Wanxiang said frankly, "I can't interject when you speak, and I don't have an appetite."

"Fool." Chu Mobei rubbed her head, "Don't be so thin."

Chu Wanxiang smiled lightly: "How can I be very thin. But you, the longer you grow, the higher you get."

"I'm not fat."

The two chatted for a while, and after eating, Chu Mohan asked, "What are you going to do?"

"The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth." Chu Wanxiang said, "Brother Huang, I will find someone to heal your leg as soon as possible, and then you don't have to worry about government affairs anymore and focus on recuperating your injuries."

Chu Mohan smiled: "Okay." After a pause, he asked, "What have you been busy with during my sleep?"

"I'm looking back then

of assassinations."

Chu Mohan's face changed slightly: "The assassin back then didn't have any clues?"

"Not yet. I'm looking, and there will always be clues." Chu Wanxiang comforted him, "You can rest assured that you are recuperating. I'll get you back and we'll be reunited."

"Xiangxiang!" Chu Mohan suddenly clenched her wrist and said excitedly, "You mean, you will definitely save me, don't you?"

Chu Wanxiang looked at him in a daze, and when she saw that he was eager and anxious, she couldn't help frowning. What the hell is this man nervous about?

"Brother Huang, don't scare me, I'm ......."

"No, it's not." Chu Mohan lost his soul and said, "Xiangxiang, don't lie to me, you tell me, you will definitely save me, right?"

Chu Wanxiang hesitated: "Of course I will save you, Brother Huang......

"I don't want you to save me!" Chu Mohan interrupted her sharply, let go of his hand and said, "Did you hear that? Don't save me, or I'd rather die!"

"You're crazy!" Chu Wanxiang glared at him, "You don't want to live anymore?"

"yes, I'm crazy." Chu Mobei muttered, "I'm just going to die. You can't save me, it's not interesting for me to live, I don't want to live anymore, I don't want you to save me."

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Chu Wanxiang was furious and stood up suddenly.

"Don't get excited...... Xiangxiang ......" Chu Mobei hurriedly grabbed her, "I didn't mean to make you angry......

"Your Majesty......" Qiulan came in timidly. She was guarding outside, listening to no movement inside before daring to come in to report, who knew that she would see such a picture......

Chu Wanxiang waved Chu Mohan away with one palm, and scolded sharply: "Get out!"

Chu Mohan staggered back a few steps and almost fell to the ground. Qiu Lan was frightened, and supported Chu Mohan in a panic: "Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, how are you?"

"Get out of here!" Chu Mohan pushed Qiu Lan away, "I told you to go!" Get out!"

Qiulan was terrified: "The emperor forgives ...... sin"

"Get out!" Chu Mobei roared, "Get out!"

"Get out ......"

Chu Wanxiang couldn't help crying, she had never seen him like this.

Chu Mobei covered his ears, squatted on the ground, trembling all over, and his eyes were red.

Chu Wanxiang hugged her knees and whimpered: "Brother Huang...... I'm not going to let you die, I won't allow ......."

Chu Mohan suddenly looked up at her, his eyes were as red as blood, and he said word by word, "Xiangxiang, if you don't want to marry me, then divorce me."

Chu Wanxiang froze suddenly.

She didn't expect him to say this.

Hugh ......

She looked at him in astonishment, and he looked cold, staring at her for a moment, as if he were looking at a stranger.

Chu Wanxiang's tears flowed out of her eyes, and her fingertips were cold. She slowly got up and stepped back towards the door. She understood that he didn't want her to save him. He hated her for abandoning their mother and son, and he blamed her for not staying, so he wanted to force her to leave.
