She is a heartthrob who wants to live a good life
Chapter 62: The Scheming Princess 19
The emperor asked casually, "And it seems that Ling'er doesn't know anything about this."
"Yesterday, my brother mentioned that he wanted to hunt a white fox, so I kindly mentioned it. Today, I remembered it and sent someone to go and take a look. If nothing happened, I would not disturb my brother. But I didn't expect to encounter a black bear."
After Xiao Chongyu finished speaking, he asked, "I wonder how the emperor's injury is?"
"It's just a tear on the leg, not a serious injury."
Xiao Chongling said in a gentle voice: "After I sent the princess back, I was still worried about the safety of those guards, so I turned back. But I came back just in time and was able to save someone."
The emperor looked worried: "Are there only a few guards? Is it worth it for you to take the risk alone?"
Although it was a reproach, there was concern in his tone.
Xiao Chongling shook his head: "After all, it was to save me, how could I ignore it?"
Queen Jiang said with a hint of meaning, "It's just such a coincidence that Ling'er and the princess went to that forest today and happened to encounter a black bear. It's clear that they arranged for people to drive away all the beasts before the autumn hunt."
Xiao Chongyu responded, "Indeed, the prince being attacked is no small matter. Father, I am willing to investigate this matter myself."
"No need, I will have someone investigate it thoroughly."
Queen Jiang sneered in her heart. It was no wonder that Xiao Chongyu, who had been sitting firmly on the throne of the Eastern Palace for so many years, could say such words without changing his expression.
After Xiao Chongyu left, Empress Jiang couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, this matter must be related to..."
"Father, Your Majesty, and Mother," Xiao Chongling interrupted her, "I want to rest for a while."
Queen Jiang had no choice but to swallow back the words that were about to come out of her mouth, feeling helpless towards her son.
When the empress walked out of Xiao Chongling's tent, the emperor reminded Empress Jiang in a gentle tone, "As the mother of a country, you must be prudent in your words and actions."
Queen Jiang looked at the emperor's back coldly. If Xiao Chongyu also treated his son sincerely, how could she be so suspicious of him?
Apart from Xiao Chongyu, who else would do such a cruel thing to a prince?
Xiao Chongling leaned on the pillow, constantly recalling everything that happened today, and sighed for a long time.
Before, Cang Cang told him that she had a dream in which Xiao Chongyu killed her and him, but he didn't believe it. But today, it seems that Xiao Chongyu must be extremely afraid of his brother.
Perhaps he felt that he posed a threat to his position as crown prince, which made him do such an extreme thing.
I wonder if the injury I suffered today can dispel some of his doubts.
Although he didn't want to become enemies with Xiao Chongyu, he had a loved one by his side and it was impossible for him to let Cang Cang take risks with him.
It seems that he has to ask his father to grant him marriage as soon as possible.
*******************
Chu Mingyue, Lin Rongyin and Nie Feiyun rode out of the woods on horseback and saw teams of soldiers walking past.
"What's going on here?"
A great panic arose in Chu Mingyue's heart.
Nie Feiyun frowned: "I'm afraid something happened."
Lin Rongyin was about to say something when Chu Mingyue and Nie Feiyun had already galloped towards the camp on horseback.
She was left behind and cursed in her heart.
"Why is King Jing being attacked now?"
Chu Mingyue and Nie Feiyun sat down at the table. Seeing her absent-minded appearance, Nie Feiyun became suspicious:
"Miss Chu, you asked me to check that forest a while ago. Could it be that you knew that King Jing would be attacked?"
Chu Mingyue pursed her lips. She couldn’t say that she was reborn. Xiao Chongling was attacked there in her previous life.
"I dreamed that I met a bear there," she said casually, "and I didn't expect it to be real."
Nie Feiyun didn't believe her words, but since she didn't want to be honest, he didn't really want to know other people's secrets, so he stood up:
"I'm afraid the autumn hunt can't go on this time. Miss Chu should behave herself after returning to the capital."
Chu Mingyue was already in a bad mood, and she was even more dissatisfied when she heard his words: "What do you mean by this?"
Nie Feiyun had a fake smile on his face:
"I'm just reminding you out of kindness. After all, your good sister is so stupid. If she does something, there's no guarantee that they won't find out that you instigated her. At this juncture, any disturbance is very dangerous."
The young man in front of her seemed particularly sincere, but the more Chu Mingyue got along with him, the more she discovered his inner indifference.
Chu Mingyue was currently busy helping the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion avoid disaster, so naturally she was in no mood to deal with Shen Weicang.
Nie Feiyun walked towards Xiao Chongling's tent alone. The more he recalled Chu Mingyue's reaction, the more suspicious it seemed to him.
"Brother King Jing, why did you turn back and get yourself so badly injured?"
Everyone around Xiao Chongling knew that Nie Feiyun and Xiao Chongling were good friends, and he could enter and leave Xiao Chongling's residence at will. However, today, as soon as he walked outside the tent, he was stopped by the guard.
Hearing this delicate complaint, Nie Feiyun felt a strange feeling all over his body and his heartbeat accelerated inexplicably.
He covered his heart in a strange way.
"Who is in your Highness's tent?"
The guard at the side whispered back, "Princess Ji Fu just came over and is talking to His Highness inside. Second Master Nie, please wait for a moment."
Nie Feiyun ignored his subtle obstruction and simply lifted the curtain and walked in.
Xiao Chongling was sitting on the bed, holding Shen Weicang in his arms and coaxing him, "Don't worry, Cangcang, it's just some flesh wounds, it's okay, it will heal soon."
He noticed someone coming in, frowned and asked, "Didn't the king order that no one is allowed to come in without permission?"
Nie Feiyun walked around the screen and said, "Don't blame me, Your Highness. I am just concerned about your injury."
His gaze fell on the girl in Xiao Chongling's arms, and his eyes suddenly turned deep.
Seeing that it was him, Xiao Chongling wiped the tears of the person in his arms, and then said, "It's nothing serious, Feiyun, don't worry."
He pointed to the chair and said, "Sit down."
Nie Feiyun walked over, lifted his robe and sat down: "Is this Princess Ji Fu? This is the first time I see you. I'm sorry."
He concealed the turmoil in his eyes very well, and Xiao Chongling, who was always paying attention to Shen Weicang's emotions, did not notice.
"This is Princess Ji Fu of the Qingyang Palace. You don't show up much, so naturally you don't have much chance to see her."
Xiao Chongling said to the person in his arms in a gentle voice: "Cang Cang, this is Nie Feiyun, the second son of the General's Mansion."
Shen Weicang was just tired of crying and had no more tears to cry out, so he looked towards Nie Feiyun, his voice still carrying a strong nasal tone:
"Please forgive me, Second Master Nie. I am being rude."
Only then did Nie Feiyun see the true appearance of Princess Ji Fu.
A red cloud rose on the little face. Maybe she had cried so hard just now. There were mists in her peach blossom eyes and a little red at the corners of her eyes.
Under the straight and delicate nose are moist and rosy lips, which are slightly pursed at this moment.
Under Nie Feiyun's gaze, the little mouth opened slightly, and uttered words of greeting: "Second Master Nie?"
He finally woke up from his dream and smiled: "Greetings to Princess Ji Fu, Princess, you can just call me Feiyun."
Shen Weicang was in no mood to say these polite words to Nie Feiyun. She looked at Xiao Chongling again:
"Brother Jing Wang, you should take good care of your injuries. I want to go back. My brother just told me to go back early."
