The little girl spoke very calmly. If it weren't for the fleeting look of loss in her eyes, Wu Xu would have almost been deceived.

He stayed in Huayue Pavilion for a long time, and he noticed something was wrong. He curled his lips, but did not expose the little girl, but said softly, "The princess is happy when she is happy." OK."

"But will His Highness be angry?" Cui Yingying was a little uneasy again, her eyebrows were drawn together, and she was at a loss what to do.

Wu Xu asked in understanding, "Is the princess afraid that His Highness will be angry?"

The little girl nodded with a bitter look on her face. After thinking about it, she finally made up her mind and said that instead of fighting with others for the position of a crown princess, it would be better to make the prince unhappy!

Wu Xu stayed at the princess's mansion until the evening before leaving. The rain was getting heavier and heavier, hitting the green bricks and tiles. Under the cover of darkness, Han Ji came to visit in a sneaky way, wearing a raincoat and jumping out of the window.

Cui Yingying, who was having fun with Cui Shaoyuan, was stunned for a moment, looked at the wet person and blinked, "Brother, why are you here?"

"Well..." Han Jing's expression was heavier than ever before. He looked at the innocent-looking girl and the kid sitting next to him and thought twice. His rain-soaked hands gradually clenched into fists, and finally slowly unclenched them. , tried his best to smile, took off his raincoat and walked towards her, reached out and touched the little girl's head, and asked in a low voice: "Yingying, are you happy now?"

"Of course I'm happy. I have a younger brother, a mansion, and a princess, so I'm naturally happy. Moreover, my parents are also heroes praised by everyone..." Cui Yingying described her current life with her arms crossed and her eyebrows on her lips.

Han Jing's smile froze at the corner of his mouth, and his hands tightened unconsciously because of her words. He finally gave up the idea of ​​letting her know the truth, but patted her little head, "That's good, wait until your second brother takes the exam." After the test is over, we will go to Yang County."

"it is good!"

"By the way, brother, you haven't answered me yet. Why did you come to me at this time? Is there something wrong with the business that you closed as soon as it was good?" She stared at Han Ji in confusion, feeling that something was wrong with her brother today.

Han Jing immediately said with a straight face and angrily: "Is it only because of business matters that my eldest brother comes to see you? I stopped by to see you and A Yuan."

Cui Yingying successfully accepted this argument. Looking at the heavy rain outside, she wanted to let the person stay, but he refused righteously.

Han Jing disappeared in the rain and mist in a hurry. She hugged the little boy and pinched his face, and said to herself in the mist, "Brother, why is he acting weird today?"

It was pitch black outside, and the sound of rain was inexplicably unsettling.

What she didn't know was that after Han Ji left, he turned around and went to the Prince's Mansion.

This was Han Ji's first serious meeting with Xiao Su. He neither drew his sword at him nor scolded his mother, but looked at him thoughtfully.

Everyone outside the study was sent away, including Wu Xu.

The two of them were sitting on the futon facing each other, and the orange candlelight in the room was flickering, which made Han Ji's face dark and unclear. He pursed his lips, lowered his head and thought for a long time, then raised his eyes to look at the person opposite, "Do you like Yingying?"

"I like it." Xiao Su answered his question straightforwardly without hiding it at all.

"No matter what happens, will you protect her?"

"What do you want to say?" Xiao Su narrowed his eyes with a look of scrutiny, "You came here in the middle of the night and this is what you want to tell Gu?"

"Xiao Su, Yingying is my sister. I am used to living alone and have no relatives. Although Yingying paid me money to become a sworn sworn brother, after getting to know her, I treat her as my own sister, so I hope she May your life be smooth." Han Jie stared at him and laid the groundwork, and finally said word by word: "I went to discuss a business today and heard some things that are very unfavorable to Yingying."

Xiao Su's face darkened, "Say."

"General Cui is not dead, he is treason. Cui Shaoyuan is not a bloodline of the Cui family, but the orphan of Prince Jingguo." Han Ji said.

As soon as he finished speaking, the tea cup in Xiao Su's hand was crushed, and the fragments scratched the palm of his hand. Blood dripped down his wrist and fell on the desk. His pupils were deep, his face was cold, and he didn't know what he was thinking. Something.

Han Jie waited for his answer quietly, but his heart was in his throat. He was not sure whether Xiao Su could trust him, but so far, he could only tell him this matter.

Otherwise, depending on what the other party wants, the truth about this matter will come out sooner or later, and Yingying will be even more hurt by then.

If Xiao Su chose righteousness, he would have no choice but to take Yingying and leave Yecheng overnight. The world is so big, he can always afford to support his sister.

"Don't let her know about this," Xiao Su slowly took out the silk handkerchief from his sleeve, slowly wiped the blood on his palm, as if he didn't feel the pain, lazily raised his eyelids and glanced at him, with those peach blossom eyes It's all chill, "She is the crown princess chosen by her parents. No one can hurt her at all, unless she dies alone."

This answer surprised Han Ji. Although he knew that he was interested in Yingying, he was still unsure about the extent of his affection. Now he could feel relieved.

The rain pattered outside the window. He stood up suddenly and bowed his hands respectfully to the other party amidst the sound of falling rain. "Xiao Su, I have always been dissatisfied with you and dissatisfied with you, but if you can protect Yingying from harm, From now on, I will help you kill whoever you want to kill."

"Gu Bu lacks guards." Xiao Su glanced at him ungratefully. Does the woman he protects have anything to do with him?

Han Jie was not angry, and looked at him with loving eyes. He waved his hand and walked towards the door. When he stepped out with one foot, he looked back with a smile and said: "Then I will call you brother-in-law from now on, hahaha." Ha ha!"

boom.

A tea cup was thrown at him fiercely. Han Jie had already fled away, but his laughter lingered for a long time.

Xiao Su's eyes dimmed, and he looked at his bleeding palms with deep thoughts. This news came as a surprise to him.

Back then, the entire army led by General Cui was wiped out, leaving no one alive, causing Chu to almost abandon three cities. Fortunately, General Ye turned the tide and avoided losses. He never expected that there was treason behind this.

General Choi is treason? This doesn't seem to make sense.

General Cui has been fighting abroad for many years, why did he choose to commit treason now? If Cui Shaoyuan is really not of Cui family blood, then it will be a great disaster that Jingguo placed on Dachu.

The incident of Prince Jingguo made a fuss, and he also knew that it was said to be a disaster caused by witchcraft. Emperor Jingguo ordered to behead his wife, concubines, and children.

But these were all things a year ago. If Cui Shaoyuan is really of the royal family of Jingguo, then... there was a person in the East Palace who escaped, and she was also a pregnant woman.

Then why did the child fall into the hands of General Cui again?

There are so many people in the army, so how did he avoid so many eyes and ears, and finally legitimately claim this child as his own?

There is a lot of mystery in this, and he still needs to verify it one by one.
