A Bao knew that according to her obsession with Pei Guichen, she should run over at this moment, comfort Pei Guichen and tell him that she always believed in him.

She walked down the stairs step by step, and Pei Guichen looked at her with a cold gaze.

His eyes were extremely complicated. Although she couldn't figure it out one by one, there was one thing she was clear about: there was a hint of inquiry in Pei Guichen's eyes.

Could it be that he was suspicious of her?

A Bao was nervous and squatted in front of Pei Guichen.

She couldn't break up with Pei Guichen just like that, but how could she hide her hatred for Pei Guichen and deal with him while wearing a mask of infatuation?

A Bao was very upset, but Pei Guichen suddenly apologized.

"Your Highness, I was negligent. I didn't expect Pei Jili and King Wu to have a secret relationship."

A Bao thought to himself, I would like to sentence you to death for negligence, but my opinion does not count.

After a moment of silence, she pretended to be reluctant, tightly held Pei Guichen's hand, and said sadly: "All this is Pei Jili's fault, it has nothing to do with Brother Pei."

Pei Guichen was silent for a while, with his head lowered, his eyes flashing darkly.

When he raised his eyes again, his eyes were pious and he swore: "I, Pei Guichen, have only come here for Her Royal Highness the Princess. I swear here that I will never betray Her Royal Highness the Princess."

"If I break this oath, I will die a miserable death."

Pei Guichen will not die a good death?

A Bao felt a little excited when he heard such a vicious oath.

She even secretly thought, Pei Guichen, you should quickly do something to betray me so that you can die miserably soon.

But Pei Guichen carefully explained, "I made this oath not to scare Your Highness, but just to let Your Highness know my true feelings."

As he spoke, Pei Guichen's face turned pale and he suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood.

Po quickly cooperated and asked worriedly, "Were you injured when you fell into the dark river?"

Pei Guichen smiled sadly and comforted A Bao, "It's okay. I just blocked a rock from the bottom of the river for Your Highness when he fell into the river. It must have hurt his lungs."

At this moment, in Pei Guichen's eyes, it seemed that among all things in the world, Abao was the most important.

For some reason, for a moment, A Bao suddenly saw a little bit of sincerity in Pei Guichen's eyes.

But she just thought she was seeing things.

In her previous life, she was deceived by Pei Guichen's love, which was stupid enough. In this life, she is very clear-headed.

Ah Bao pretended to be touched, "Brother Pei, you are a kind and honest person, how could you possibly help the fifth brother to instigate the eldest brother to practice witchcraft and incite the third brother to rebel, resulting in countless deaths and injuries and rivers of blood?"

"I know Brother Pei really likes me."

"I'm also glad that Brother Pei is not a black-hearted bastard."

Pei Guichen knew very well that he was the real culprit.

But his cold eyes revealed a gentle smile, and he said with deep affection: "Your Highness is willing to believe in me, I will die without regrets."

Although Abao was just acting according to the situation, he was also very dedicated and responsible.

She searched in her sleeve for a long time, took out a handkerchief and handed it to Pei Guichen.

"Brother Pei, stop kneeling. I'll take you to find the imperial physician."

Unexpectedly, Pei Guichen refused to stand up, and knelt down to plead for Xiao Yunzheng, "Your Highness, please do not blame Master Xiao for the wrong report."

What Xiao Yunzheng revealed about Xuanyuan Wu's fake death was actually a fabrication made up by A Bao.

But she was very curious about what Pei Guichen wanted to say.

So, she looked at Pei Guichen in confusion, "Brother Pei, what does this mean?"

"Your Highness is a beautiful lady, and gentlemen love her. I'm sure that Prince Xiao is no exception." Pei Guichen said softly, analyzing slowly, "I was injured while blocking the sword for Your Highness, and Your Highness often takes care of me. In this situation, and it happens to be the time for the East Palace election, Prince Xiao must be worried."

"Pei Jili is my cousin. The two brothers look alike and are often mistaken for each other. When Prince Xiao saw Pei Jili, he thought he was me. He was worried that Your Highness had been deceived by me, so he pinned all the charges on me."

"There is nothing wrong with Prince Xiao caring about Your Highness. Please don't blame me."

Po understood.

Pei Guichen openly pleaded for Xiao Yunzheng, but he actually wanted to tell her—

Xiao Yunzheng's intelligence may not be accurate, and there may even be suspicion of personal revenge. She'd better not believe Xiao Yunzheng's intelligence in the future.

What Pei Guichen said was really convoluted, a bit like the concubines in the old emperor's harem.

A Bao looked at Pei Guichen's face, which showed his special concern for Xiao Yunzheng, and couldn't help but marvel in his heart.

What kind of brotherhood between Pei Guichen and Xiao Yunzheng can be broken in an instant?

She silently complained, after all, you will still be my brother-in-law and brother-in-law in the future, and you have to work hand in hand to usurp the splendid kingdom of my Xuanyuan clan...

Pei Guichen, you are stabbing Xiao Yunzheng in the back. Isn't that very chivalrous of you?

Having heard enough of Pei Guichen's nonsense, A Bao was very reasonable and said, "Brother Pei is right. Since cousin Yun Zheng is just worried, how can I blame him?"

As he spoke, A Bao blinked deliberately and asked Pei Guichen curiously.

"But does cousin Yun Zheng really like me? I haven't seen cousin Yun Zheng for many years. When we met again, I always felt that cousin Yun Zheng was very indifferent and distant."

Ah Bao looked serious and asked, "Brother Pei, how did you know that cousin Yun Zheng was interested in me and was very worried about me?"

Pei Guichen's breathing stagnated as he silently looked at A Bao with an excited face.

A Bao tried to add to the confusion: "Brother Pei, tell me, how did you figure that out?"

Pei Guichen: “…”
