Chu Monan sat on the edge of the couch and reached out to her forehead.

His hand froze in the air, then slowly lowered.

Chu Wanxiang seemed to sense his approach, and suddenly opened his eyes, facing Chu Monan's deep and dark black pupils.

The eyes are facing each other.

Chu Monan retracted his eyes and got up to leave.

Chu Monan walked to the door and paused: "Xiangxiang, you take care of your illness. I'll come back to see you." He turned around and walked away quickly, his back hurried and lonely, as if he was afraid of something, and did not dare to turn back.

As soon as he left, Chu Wanxiang collapsed on the couch, her eyes sour and hot.

"Xiangxiang." A familiar shout resounded through the sky, and it was heartbreaking.

Chu Wanxiang came back to his senses violently. She ran to the window, opened it, and sure enough, she saw a slender figure climbing over the wall.

The man stood under the eaves, dressed in a snow-white robe, handsome and handsome under the moonlight. He smiled at her and smiled softly: "Xiangxiang, long time no see, are you okay?" new

Chu Wanxiang's nose was sour for a while, and she choked up and said, "Second brother, I'm fine."

"Great...... Chu Mohan breathed a sigh of relief, "Father and mother are worried about you."

Chu Wanxiang wiped away her tears and forced a smile: "It's great that you're here. I thought you were ......."

"Think I'm dead?" Chu Mohan smiled, "How can I be willing to leave you alone. I promised my father and mother to protect you."

Chu Wanxiang nodded, and a warm current surged in her heart.

"Let's go, let's go inside." He took her hand, helped her to the bed and lay down, tucked the corners of the quilt, "Frightened today, aren't you? Don't be afraid, I'm coming."

Chu Wanxiang shook her head and looked at him with a smile.

Chu Mohan sat on the chair, rubbed his eyebrows, and said in a calm tone: "In the days when I am away, have you encountered any danger?"

"No, I'm safe, don't worry." Chu Wanxiang said.

Chu Mohan breathed a sigh of relief, then frowned and pondered, "Since you're fine, why don't you go find me?" Do you know how worried I am about you?"

"If you refuse to tell me who you are, how can I go to you?" Chu Wanxiang said, "Moreover, I'm afraid that I will go to you and affect you."

She is the princess of the royal family, and the royal family will definitely investigate this matter, and he, as the prince, is weak and difficult to resist the power of the imperial power. He didn't want to be burned because of her, so he always hid the truth from her. She didn't resent him for hiding it, she was just worried that it would hurt him.

When Chu Mohan heard this, he was stunned for a long time.

"You don't have to worry about me......," he smiled wryly, "In this world, the last thing I am afraid of is the royal family."

Chu Wanxiang's eyes trembled slightly: "Why?"

Chu Mohan didn't answer immediately, and said lightly for a long time, "The imperial brother has already ascended the throne. I didn't want to participate in the competition anymore, so I fled to the rivers and lakes and played life. Unexpectedly, he was trapped in the palace." He looked into Chu Wanxiang's eyes and said word by word, "I miss you, Xiangxiang."

Chu Wanxiang's heart softened. He used to spoil himself so much, but now he is left to fight alone, how can she not feel distressed?

"I'll be with you, second brother." She said softly, "Together, we're going through this difficult time."

"Okay." He laughed.

He walked out of the dormitory and instructed the maid to prepare a meal and bring it to her room.

At the dinner table, Chu Monan watched Chu Wanxiang finish eating, picked up a handkerchief to wipe the oil stains on her lips, and said in a gentle tone like a spring breeze: "You are injured, you should pay more attention to your body."

Chu Wanxiang nodded.

"The Emperor won't give up. You have to be careful." Chu Monan frowned and admonished.

Chu Wanxiang held his hand and said firmly, "I won't back down, even if the emperor comes in person, I will definitely not let him touch you."

Chu Monan raised his eyes and looked at her.

Under the lamp, her face was bright and distinct, and her eyes were bright and clear, like stars.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered that when he first met her, she was also like this. At that time, she was the only girl he wanted to marry, and she was the one he was willing to do everything to protect her.

pity

She fell in love with his cousin. Her beauty was admired by men all over the world, but she married him, and since then she has been displaced and suffered.

"Xiangxiang ......," he called her by name.

"Huh?"

"What if...... If you don't want to stay in this court, I'll take you away." Chu Monan stared at her.

Chu Wanxiang was stunned, and then smiled: "Second brother, no. The emperor will dispose of you, and once he gives an order, no one can resist it. When the time comes, we'll both be doomed."

Chu Mohan pursed his lips.

Chu Wanxiang patted him on the shoulder: "It's good for us to be like this now, and I'm used to this kind of comfortable life. Although we can't leave the palace, we can still be together every day. I love your sound, you play it so well."

Chu Mohan sighed slightly: "Xiangxiang, do you know, I have always wanted to take you away from here."

"Why?"

"I don't want you to stay in this cage, I don't want you to be scared every day."

"But ......"

Chu Mohan pressed her palm and rubbed it gently: "Xiangxiang, I will protect you."

Chu Wanxiang was silent for a moment, slowly approached, hugged his waist, and pressed his cheek against his chest.

"Second brother, thank you." She said, "I'll take care of myself."

"Xiangxiang ......," Chu Mohan muttered. He stretched out his arms around her body and whispered, "Don't reject my affection, don't leave me again, okay?"

"Second brother!" She pushed him away, "Don't talk nonsense, we'll never be separated."

He looked at her deeply, his gaze complicated and lingering, "Hmm."

In the early morning of the next day, Chu Wanxiang woke up, and Chu Mohan was no longer in the room.

They talked for a long time last night, and before they knew it, they fell asleep.

Chu Wanxiang finished washing up and was about to walk to the front yard when she suddenly heard someone reporting it.

"Qi Qi Niangniang, the second highness has come down." The palace maid said.

Chu Wanxiang was slightly surprised: "Please let him in."

"Yes."

Chu Mohan stepped into the house and saw Chu Wanxiang standing in front of the mirror and hurriedly walked over.

"You're here, Xiangxiang, have you eaten breakfast?" Chu Monan asked.

Chu Wanxiang said with a smile: "I haven't eaten breakfast yet, and I'm thinking about asking the maid to pass the meal."

"Let's wait a minute, let's eat together." Chu Monan said.

Chu Wanxiang turned her head to look at him and asked with a smile, "Do you have time to come and see me today?"

Chu Monan nodded.

The two of them sat down.

Chu Monan handed the chopsticks to Chu Wanxiang.

Chu Wanxiang took a few flower rolls, chewed them slowly, and suddenly asked, "You are not here today just to visit the sick, right? If there's anything, tell me quickly."

Chu Mo Nan looked at her with a frank expression and smiled, "It's nothing special. I want to go outside."

"It's that simple?" Chu Wanxiang didn't seem to believe it.

Chu Monan said, "You know, the palace is strictly forbidden, and I can't get out at all. Besides, you need me by your side. I want to go out shopping and buy some jewelry and clothes, can you come with me?"

Chu Wanxiang pondered for a moment and said, "Okay."
