"Sparse shadows."

The man twisted a piece of water chestnut cake and shouted indifferently.

Like a gust of wind, Shuying appeared in front of Xiao Lusheng in the blink of an eye, clasped her fists and said, "Your Majesty."

"On the day the princess returned home, Prince Xiao Yu of Pingxi and Miss Su Yuxi of the Su family were discussing marriage."

Shuying nodded, "Yes." What happened to the prince?

Didn’t I tell him about this when he came back that day?

"She didn't cry?"

"Your Highness, the princess didn't cry." Shuying was a little surprised. The prince's questions today were very strange.

"Go check again, no matter how big or small, I want to know how deep the princess's love for Xiao Yu is."

As he spoke, he returned the water trotter cake he had taken a bite of back to the plate, looking gloomy and unclear, as if he wanted to stare a hole in the plate.

Shuying never questioned Xiao Lusheng's orders, so she immediately took the order and left the study.

into the night.

Qingning came to ask for instructions, saying that the princess came to ask him whether he should move back to the main house.

Xiao Lusheng put down the book in his hand, raised his eyes and asked, "Is she used to living in the palace these past two days?"

Qingning was stunned. The prince actually made a special trip to ask about the princess' daily life.

Sure enough, she guessed correctly.

She bowed slightly and said, "In reply to your question, the princess is quite nice, except that she often asks about your preferences and misses you all the time."

"Ask about my preferences? Are you thinking about me?"

“Yes, I dare not say anything nonsense.” Although she was the one who reminded him about the water chestnut cake, after the princess came back from the study today, she did ask her about many of the prince’s hobbies and taboos!

The man had a faint smile on his face, and his rugged face looked a little sinister.

Qing Ning was unsure for a moment, and then said, "In fact, the princess's family came once at noon, but the princess did not see them."

"who?"

"I don't know, and the princess didn't say either."

The man's white fingers tapped on the table, rhythmically like drumbeats.

After a long while, he said, "If she wants to do something normally, just bring guards and let her go."

Qing Ning raised her head in disbelief and glanced at Xiao Lusheng. Seeing that her master was looking at her, she lowered her head in fear and said, "Yes, I know."

She knew that the prince treated this princess who was in marriage to him differently.

The sound of wheels was heard.

Xiao Lusheng pushed the wheelchair out, and Qingning saw him and took the initiative to help push it.

When they returned to the main house, Xiang Ming, who was guarding outside the door, greeted them first, then stood up and opened the door of the main house.

Su Yun hurriedly put down the medical book and came to greet him, "I respectfully welcome the prince."

Xiao Lusheng looked at her, neither humble nor arrogant, seemingly well-behaved, but this morning, when she was in the study, she was quite bold!

"Your Highness, have you had dinner yet?" Su Yun asked Qingning.

Xiao Lusheng frowned and looked at her. Why didn't she just ask him directly?

Qingning was a member of the palace after all, so she naturally knew the time when the prince had dinner every day. She nodded and said, "Princess, the prince usually has dinner at this time."

She replied conservatively.

After all, the real owner is here. If she doesn’t have dinner today, won’t she be in trouble?

Su Yun looked at Xiao Lusheng, her eyes seemed to be asking questions.

He nodded, "I have used it."

Qingning, as usual, asked someone to prepare water and clothes for washing, and then left the room.

Xiao Lusheng pushed the cart to the bathroom, and Su Yun quickly followed, "I will serve you, Your Majesty."

Xiao Lusheng stopped immediately and said, "No need!" This woman was obviously not sincere.

Yesterday, after she fell into the bathtub, when her soft hands grasped it, he felt the current spread from that position until the blood in his body surged...

This woman has a pair of eyes as charming as mist, and her appearance is even more charming.

If he had not investigated and found out that it was indeed the eldest daughter of the Su family, Su Yun, he would have suspected who had carefully trained this top spy!

Of course, she might be the spy sent by the Su family and the Prince Xiao Yu of the Heping West Palace!

Although his legs are disabled, he is still a normal man after all. If he is teased by her a few more times, he may not be able to resist.

Su Yun stopped and watched the man roll his wheelchair to the bathroom, hesitating for a moment.

He seemed to distrust himself.

Three quarters of an hour later.

Xiao Lusheng came out neatly dressed and sitting in a wheelchair.

"Your Highness..." She stood beside the round table, looking cautious.

Those eyes were bright and innocent.

He glanced at her. Is there something wrong?

Su Yun whispered, "Let me dry the prince's hair." He had washed his hair today.

Xiao Lusheng didn't refuse.

Seeing this, Su Yun breathed a sigh of relief.

While drying Xiao Lusheng's hair, Qingning asked someone to change the water in the bathroom, and came over to bow and said, "My Lord, Princess, the bath water has been changed to clean water."

Su Yun nodded.

After drying his hair, she helped Xiao Lusheng to bed and then went to the bathroom.

Listen to the sound of water splashing.

Xiao Lusheng leaned on the left side of the bed. Through the blurry screen, he saw the woman lift her slender feet and step into the bathtub, then slowly sit down.

His breath caught in his throat.

I felt hot all over.

That familiar, masculine heat eroded his willpower bit by bit, and his mind uncontrollably recalled the scene and feeling when she fell into the bathtub yesterday, wet, and touched him.

Uncontrollably, his body reacted and he pulled the quilt over himself, turning his head away from her.

Su Yun...

It would be best if you were the one to save me, otherwise...

What else?

Xiao Lusheng was stunned. What would he do if she was not his savior?

Let the Su family be doomed!

Do you want to take Su Yun’s life?

What if it was her?

Thinking of this, Xiao Lusheng's heart beat faster. What if Su Yun was really the one who saved him?

He closed his eyes and dozed off.

Hearing the rustling sound, servants came in and out, cleaning the bathroom, and she said in a pleasant voice, "Please bring a kettle of cold boiled water."

"It's the princess."

Xiao Lusheng thought to himself, why is she so polite to the servants?

If it was the favored second young lady of the Su family, would she be as cautious as she is?

After a while, Qingning brought a pot of cold boiled water and placed it on the round table, then returned to the ear room.

Su Yun poured a glass of water and drank it.

She changed the teacup, poured another cup, and walked to the bedside, "Would your Highness like to have a drink?" She asked, holding the white jade teacup in both hands.

Xiao Lu said coldly: "You said in broad daylight that you would always stand by my side?"

"Yes, I never lie."

"No one in the entire capital has ever dared to make such a promise to this king."

"I am already the prince's wife. In life, I am the prince's person, and in death, I shall be the prince's ghost." In the whole book, no one else has the ability to change her inevitable fate except the most powerful Xiao Lusheng!

Xiao Lusheng met her determined eyes and was a little surprised for a moment.

There seemed to be a voice in his heart telling him to believe her!

"You are my person in life and my ghost in death?" he murmured, took the white jade cup from her hand and drank it in one gulp.

When he handed it back to her, he said, "Perform well and don't ruin the show!"
