Chapter 170
Xiao Xu pursed his lips, his eyes full of pity, and he whispered: "Okay. You didn't cry. Can you tell me what happened?"
In a critical moment, Chu Junlan was able to straighten his back and grit his teeth and hold on, but once he met her who treated her so gently, her tense nerves relaxed and her mental defenses were quickly defeated by gentleness.
I didn't want to show my fragile side, but I couldn't help but cry.
Chu Junlan forced a smile. Seeing Zi Yan, Baole, and Jing Yu all looked at him with a serious expression. Thinking that the matter had already reached the imperial court, it was probably impossible to hide it, so he whispered the story and told Xiao Xu.
Her voice was gentle, and she lowered her voice and felt a sweet feeling of congratulation when she spoke, which made people feel extremely comfortable when they heard it.
But although her tone was calm, Xiao Xu could feel her anxiety and anxiety.
"My elder brother was stabbed by Ma Yan. Now he doesn't know his life or death. Ma Yan has been arrested... Prince, I'm really a little panicked now."
She didn't know if her elder brother would be treated, but at that time, the matter given by the emperor would immediately arouse the alert of the imperial guards. They would definitely strengthen the garrison of Fushou Garden. If she delayed it, it would be difficult for her to escape. Their brother and sister had already injured one, and Chu Huting could also explain that it was for the sake of rescue. If she was caught, she would be unable to explain it even if she had a hundred mouths.
Although the truth was clear, she ran away and left her brother there. The guilt and worry in the letter burst out, which really tortured her physically and mentally exhausted.
Xiao Xu looked down at her dark head, which was close to her. Her head lowered her head, as if she was leaning obediently in his arms. The distance between the two happened to make him smell the fragrance of her elegantly mixed with the fragrance of medicine.
Xiao Xu was filled with care in his heart. When he came to his senses, he had already taken Chu Junlan into his arms.
Chu Junlan was not prepared at all because of his deep thoughts. Xiao Xu gently leaned on a solid chest, his cheek resting on his shoulders, listening to the sound of heartbeat that changed from calmness to rapid, and breathing the unfamiliar cold air, 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 skills, she is just an ordinary person. If possible, who doesn’t want to live a peaceful and peaceful life?
Chu Junlan closed his eyes, buried his face on his shoulders, and hugged Xiao Xujin's thin waist with both hands.
Xiao Xu's heartbeat was getting faster and faster, but the sour and overflowing happiness made him feel as if he was in a hot spring, hugging her tightly, and from an invisible angle, she lowered her head and gently kissed her hair.
"Don't be afraid, I'll find a way for you."
Chu Junlan nodded in a depressed manner.
At this moment, the scene of the two embracing each other was too warm and beautiful. Zi Yan, Jing Yu, Baole and others quietly avoided it.
Chu Junlan came to his senses after a while, stood up and left his arms, and the night color hid the blush on her cheeks.
"The prince should leave first. Since he has already reached the imperial court, it is impossible to be good. I think 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 burden. I'm a member of the royal family and your fiancé, and I can protect you here."
Chu Junlan looked up at his extremely serious handsome face and couldn't help pinching his cheek: "I understand your kindness, but if you are also trapped here and your actions are blocked, how can you help me? The emperor was furious and his methods must be tough. I'm afraid that our family will not have any good endings, and you will still need your help to walk around at that time."
Xiao Xu frowned, and could already imagine what Chu Junlan was about to face. He couldn't help but curse, wishing to cut the criminal who pretended to be Chu Cailiang to death!
"Okay." He sighed, "Don't worry, I will do my best to help you protect your elder brother."
His words were just in her heart. If something happened to the Chu family, she would have the ability to escape in the worst case. What she was most worried about now was the eldest brother who was trapped by the emperor's side and was unknown to his life and death.
"Thank you." There was another light of water in bright eyes, and the crystal clearness in the night was pitying.
Xiao Xu's heartbeats quickly, he clenched his fists, suddenly bent down, leaned forward, and kissed her in the eyes.
Chu Junlan subconsciously closed his eyes and felt his soft and dry lips falling on her eyelids. He was about to fall apart. His heart seemed to be suddenly lit, and it instantly ignited all over his body, and his cheeks and neck quickly became dry.
She felt cherished, making her body light.
Xiao Xu also blushed, opened his eyes a little uncomfortable, called Jing Yu, who was hiding in the corner and silently, and then left the gate of the living yard.
Chu Junlan lowered his head and touched his eyes. He couldn't help but smile, then took a deep breath and ordered Zi Yan and Baole: "Be prepared, the accident will come soon. You put on thick clothes and change to eat. I don't know what will happen next."
Both of them nodded and hurriedly prepared. Zi Yan also pulled Chu Junlan to change into thicker clothes, and prepared a plain satin light blue cloak for Chu Junlan to wear. Not only did she bring some of the various small pills that Chu Junlan had packed, but she also hid her dough cakes and snacks in her arms.
Chu Junlan was dressed neatly, so he calmed down and quickly went to the outer courtyard. There were not many servants and maids on the way, most of them had already fallen asleep, and only a few were still tidying up the mess after the party.
Everyone still lives their lives as usual without knowing that the storm is coming.
The study was pitch black, and Chu Junlan quickly stepped forward and knocked on the door. No one in the room responded. She knew that Liang Hui must be so nervous that he dared not speak, and whispered: "It's me."
The study door was immediately pushed open with a creak, and Liang Hui said nervously: "Miss Third Miss!"
"Yes." Chu Junlan quickly stepped into the house and ordered: "Light the light."
"yes."
Liang Hui seemed to have a backbone, and immediately took out the fire stick and blew it, lit the silk lamp.
The warm orange-red lights illuminate the furnishings in the house, and thick black shadows cast on the floor beside the table and chair piers.
Chu Junlan held up the silk lamp and walked quickly to the side room. He saw Chu Cailiang had been moved to the warm kang by the window, lying on his back and was sleeping.
Aunt Wang and Chu Mengying were still lying on the ground, but their quilts were covered with thin quilts.
Liang Hui said with a bitter face: "There is a difference between men and women. The young ones dare not move Aunt Wang and the second lady rashly."
Chu Junlan smiled, pulled out a silver needle from the needle pouch in his sleeve, and stabbed the three of them quickly a few times.
The three of them immediately moved at the same time.
Chu Cailiang was the first to wake up. He blinked and didn't understand what was going on for a moment. He looked at the dim light house and asked, "Is this...what's wrong with me?"
Chu Junlan sneered: "You were stunned. The official waist signs and documents were stolen by Ma Yan. Ma Yan used your identity to enter the palace to assassinate the Holy Lord, and he has been arrested."
