?Chapter 36

Chen Pu stood cautiously in front of Min Xuan who was seated, and lowered his head, not daring to look directly at him.

It's been three years, three years ago he resolutely left the palace, escaped from that sad place, all he wanted was a new life, so he didn't dare to think about meeting the people who would come back to the palace one day.

Seeing her now, I feel all kinds of feelings in my heart, my mind is empty and I don't know what to say.

Min Xuan relied on the dim candlelight to scrutinize Chen Pu thoroughly, but in fact he didn't want to see Chen Pu at all.

He grasped the handle of the chair next to him with one hand, and looked at Chen Pu with hatred. He knew that Huai Jun still missed this person, so in the past three years, he was always worried that Chen Pu would appear again!

When he heard about Chen Pu that day, he had only one thought - he wanted to see him and determine his whereabouts faster than Huai Jun!Now when he sees Chen Pu in the Song Mansion, he has only one thought - he wants to make Chen Pu disappear before Huai Jun learns of Chen Pu's whereabouts!

However, after Chen Pu disappeared, he wanted to "talk" with him.

He slowly loosened his grip on the chair handle, and said with a half-smile: "It seems that Chen Zhonglang has lived comfortably in the past three years."

"Not, not bad..." Chen Pu replied nervously.

"That's true." Min Xuan nodded slightly, but the next sentence was a sarcasm: "Chen Zhonglang is used to doing things in the brothel, the difference is that he only served one person that day."

Chen Pu looked up at Min Xuan in astonishment, he understood the meaning of Min Xuan's words, but he never thought that Min Xuan knew about his relationship with Huai Jun!

He always only felt that Min Xuan didn't like him, and now it seems that this was the reason why he didn't like him.

A lot of past events suddenly appeared in my mind, things about him and Huai Jun, things about Yong Ting and Ming Luo.Now standing in front of Minxuan, he suddenly realized that these things have always been so vivid in his memory, and it is also so heart-wrenching.

The pain in his left shoulder became more severe, and the pain spread from top to bottom to the entire left hand.

Everyone in the palace hates such things, Ming Luo died because of this, Huai Jun let him go because of this, it's nothing more than Min Xuan, so Min Xuan should hate him.

But Minxuan misunderstood his affairs in Xuanli, so he wanted to defend himself, but was interrupted mercilessly by Minxuan: "Don't you ask His Royal Highness how is your life?"

"Prince..." Chen Pu breathed out bitterly. In the past, his third prince was already a prince, and Huai Jun had painstakingly obtained the position of prince!

This fact whipped his heart again, especially when he saw the mocking smile on Min Xuan's face, he beat him like a fist.

He clenched his right fist tightly, and his fingertips sank deeply into the palm, intending to disperse the pain in his left hand.

Why did he laugh at him?Is his sincerity towards Huai Jun worth laughing at?Huai Jun decided to marry a wife, and he didn't make troubles, and came to Yangzhou alone, is it worth laughing at?Just because he is the fifth prince, so he should stand here and let him mock?Just because Minxuan is from the palace, wouldn't he dare to face it?

He suddenly remembered that one day Xuanlou came to a place where there was a strong man, and that strong man took a fancy to Sun Ao at a glance, and insisted that Sun Ao serve him because of his wealth, but Sun Ao was not a young man in the building. So he taunted him in public, so that he didn't know what to do with his face, and finally had to leave with his face flushed.

After staying in Xuanlou for three years, Chen Pu vaguely knew that there was a powerful backer behind Sun Ao, and he didn't take other people seriously at all.But after he remembered that incident deeply, Sun Ao told him: "Pu'er, you will be insulted if you are not self-improvement. That's what people do. He will bully you when he thinks you are easy to bully, so you have to tell him that you are Not easy to bully. People can look down on you, but you can't put yourself down."

At that time, he didn't carefully consider the meaning of this sentence, and now he finally understands the truth.

All the things that happened back then have passed, what else is there that you dare not face?

He endured the pain in his left hand, suddenly smiled, and asked calmly, "How is your highness?"

"Brother Sanhuang and Sister-in-law Sanhuang are all well and well in the palace, Chen Zhonglang really has a heart."

"Fifth Prince is serious. His Highness the Crown Prince and I have known each other before." Chen Pu paused, turning the pain in his heart into a brighter smile on his face: "Just live well."

One pretended to be calm and calm, while the other suddenly gossiped and said: "Of course it is good. Earlier, Sanhuang's Wife gave birth to Brother Huang's baby, and that baby's face was always flushed red. It's cute. But her crying sound is amazing. At night, people in Renfu Palace can't sleep well. But Brother Sanhuang really loves her very much. Once she had a high fever, Brother Sanhuang Stand by her side every step of the way.”

Chen Pu looked at Min Xuan's seemingly calm smile again, this time, he understood Min Xuan's intention, besides mocking him, he told him clearly - he is an outsider who can never get involved in Huai Jun's life!

But since he has long been an outsider, why did Min Xuan bother to tell these things?

It seems that he wants to stay away from this game, but some people think he is a player in the game, so who will not let who go?

Until now, Chen Pu only wanted Min Xuan to let him go.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a considerate person, and he will definitely treat the Crown Princess and the little princess very well. As for Chen Pu, who was just the middle man next to the Crown Prince in the past, it is enough to know that he is doing well now." If the fifth prince has nothing else to do, the villain will leave first." As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and left without hesitation, he just wanted Min Xuan to stop pestering him with the past and let him go.

But Min Xuan is obviously unwilling to let Chen Pu go because he understands Chen Pu's position in Huai Jun's heart.

"Chen Pu!" He shouted to stop Chen Pu, but the next sentence made Chen Pu's pace abruptly stop: "Brother San Huang knows your whereabouts!"

Chen Pu turned around in surprise, and asked incredulously, "When will you know?"

"Recently. He asked me to come here. He has something to tell you." Min Xuan looked at Chen Pu sharply. He didn't believe that Chen Pu didn't care, and what he said in the name of Huai Jun was indeed cruel. He stabbed Chen Pu's chest with a knife, which was more painful than when a knife was stabbed into his left shoulder back then!

He said: "He said that the past is over, don't remember it, and don't let people know, and he hopes that you will never set foot in the capital again."

Chen Pu lowered his head, his expression darkened all of a sudden, it turned out that he was stupid for remembering those things in the past three years.

But after thinking about it again, it might be a good thing that Huai Jun is willing to let go.He started his life, and Huai Jun also had his own life.

However, facing this sad man, Min Xuan only wanted him to give up completely, he only wanted him never to appear again.

Min Xuan left the seat, strode forward, grabbed Chen Pu's left shoulder with one hand, then walked in front of him and said, "I tell you, Brother Sanhuang is living a very good life now, so don't interfere with his affairs anymore." Life! You will never be able to give him what he wants! You should never set foot in the capital again. I don't care what your relationship with Song Leyu is, but you can't go to the capital with him!"

"His Royal Highness doesn't want me to go back, and I have never thought about going back!" Facing the aggressive Min Xuan, Chen Pu, who is usually good-tempered, couldn't hold back the pain and anger in his heart at this moment, and shouted loudly.

The next moment, he understood the meaning of Min Xuan's words, raised his right hand, and knocked off Min Xuan's hand that hurt his left shoulder, stared at him and asked, "What's the relationship between me and Le Yu?"

"You know who you are here and what you do, so I don't need to be honest!"

"Ha." Chen Pu sneered, and typed the words sonorously into Min Xuan's ears: "Huaijun doesn't want others to know about what happened back then, that's fine! But he wants me not to remember? That's mine. In the past, not only did it belong to him, but it also did not belong to you, the fifth prince! Whether you remember it or not is up to me. The fifth prince wants me to stop intervening, that’s fine! But the fifth prince has never thought that it was my feelings that were intervened back then , I was the one who forcibly pulled away from that relationship! If I want to stay that day, do you think Huai Jun will not allow it? Who do you think can stop me?"

"You, you," Min Xuan was so angry with Chen Pu's words, he said angrily, "Don't use your shameful feelings as an excuse!"

"Fifth Prince, remember." Chen Pu looked at Min Xuan with a pair of clean eyes, but said strong words in his mouth: "Half of the shameful feelings in your mouth were given to me by Huai Jun. I am willing to leave that day Today, the Fifth Prince doesn't need to worry too much about whether I will go back. As for my relationship with Le Yu, please don't make arbitrary judgments."

Min Xuan never thought that Chen Pu, who had a good temper in the past, would speak out against him, and he, who was used to being accommodating, suddenly felt like a gas was clogged in his chest, and he couldn't vent it out.

However, after looking at Chen Pu a few more times, he felt that Chen Pu was like a cat whose tail was stepped on. Everyone would inevitably bark their teeth and claws when they encountered something to defend.

So what is Chen Pu trying to defend?

He changed his angry posture, and mocked in a very cold tone: "Chen Pu, look at yourself. That relationship has long been doomed to be fruitless, and it has long been doomed to be wrong. Now that Brother Sanhuang has withdrawn, he has a wife and children." But what about you? When you arrived in Yangzhou, you went to the brothel to sell jokes, and now you are dating Song Leyu? As a man, do you feel ashamed when you see yourself in the mirror?"

"It's not the Fifth Prince's turn to care about Chen Pu's affairs." Chen Pu didn't want to continue arguing, moved his pace, brushed Min Xuan's shoulder and left.

Min Xuan grabbed Chen Pu's right hand with one hand, stopped his pace and said, "You should give up."

Chen Pu felt it was ridiculous in his heart, if his heart was not dead, how could he leave decisively that day?Even if he still misses and has feelings in his heart, he has long since ceased to have any hope for that feeling.

He shook off Min Xuan's hand, and left decisively again, not entangled in this relationship.

After stepping out of that door, he saw Song Leyu waiting for him at the corner.He pressed his sore left shoulder and walked to his side without saying a word.

Seeing him pressing his left shoulder, Song Leyu remembered that Yao Ziyu had said about his injury, so he asked with concern: "Has the old disease recurred?" Chen Pu nodded silently, and Song Leyu said, "This injury will heal sooner or later." .”

After listening, Chen Pu didn't respond anymore, and the two just continued to walk side by side until they returned to Chen Pu's wing.

Song Leyu could see that Chen Pu had depression in his heart, and this depression was caused by Minxuan, just like when he played the flute that day.

He smiled and asked, "Aren't you welcome to come in and sit?"

Back then Chen Pu was willing to listen to the flute listener's thoughts, what he was willing to say today, Song Leyu was also willing to listen to the flute flute listener tell his story.

"Okay." Chen Pu replied in a low voice, and called Song Leyu in.

Maybe some things can't be solved by blowing the flute once. The affection in the flute has been compared with today's situation. He no longer has the courage to take out the flute that once entrusted the two of them to play.And the Song Leyu in front of him is worthy of his trust, even if he doesn't say a word after entering, it is a great comfort for him to see a friend who is willing to accompany him.

As a result, Song Leyu put medicine on his left shoulder, and this was the first time he saw Chen Pu's injury.When he saw the deep scar on Chen Pu's left shoulder, he couldn't help being angry at the thief's cruelty.After the medicine was finished, he poured a cup of hot tea for Chen Pu.After Chen Pu took a sip, his mouth was full of bitterness, and he spoke leisurely about the events of that year, but never mentioned his relationship with Huai Jun.

He said that when he was young, he became the Zhonglang of His Royal Highness the current Crown Prince. Later, because he did something wrong, he could no longer tolerate staying in the palace, so he came to Yangzhou, and the fifth prince just couldn't tolerate his one person.

He asked Song Leyu: "We all said that it was wrong, but what was wrong? Am I the only one who is wrong?"

Song Leyu had no choice but to silently wait by this sad man's side.

Chen Pu looked at the rippling sweet brown color in the cup, and asked himself again in his heart: "Huaijun, are you really right? Why are you so cruel?"
