Why hasn't His Highness written a letter of divorce?

Xiao Che tried very hard to stand up and walk by himself, so Jiang Qingning was ready to accompany him, not caring about whether he was bound to Xiao Che for the time being, thinking that he and Xiao Che were connected anyway just fine.

Xiao Che was not yet old enough to be granted titles or to participate in political affairs, so he didn't need to enter the palace much except to pay his respects to Emperor Yong'an.

On this day, Emperor Yong'an suddenly called him into the palace.

Jiang Qingning and Xiao Che are in the sweet period of love, even if they are separated for a short while, they still feel missing.

Jiang Qingning had been restless since the day, and Xiao Che didn't come back until late at night. Jiang Qingning couldn't help feeling anxious, and he paced back and forth in the yard wearing a cloak.

Could something have happened in the palace?

Jiang Qingning frowned and thought, he was a little worried when he suddenly heard some movement behind him.

Jiang Qingning turned back and looked carefully, but found nothing. Just as he was about to relax his vigilance, a long arrow shot towards him.

But because the arrow seemed to be shot crookedly, the arrow barely passed Jiang Qingning's shoulder without hurting him.

Jiang Qingning was frightened to the ground. If the arrow hadn't gone wrong, it would have passed through his neck.

Someone is going to kill him!

Just as this thought came to Jiang Qingning's mind, he didn't have time to find a place to hide, and soon three more arrows shot at him at the same time.

"Help—" Jiang Qingning subconsciously shouted, he thought he was going to die, three arrows shot at his vitals at the same time, and he had no way to dodge.

Jiang Qingning closed his eyes, but suddenly someone flew over and stood in front of him.

The three arrows were easily knocked down to the ground, and soon there were screams from outside the courtyard wall.

Jiang Qingning opened her eyes and saw Feng Ying's figure, who was already chasing outside the courtyard wall.

Feng Ying's martial arts are so strong that almost no one in Chang'an City is his opponent.

While Jiang Qingning breathed a sigh of relief, her heart rose again.

After a while, I waited until Feng Ying came back.

Feng Ying bowed to him first, and then said: "You'd better go, get out of here as soon as possible."

Jiang Qingning was puzzled and asked, "Why?"

Feng Ying chased after him just now, he naturally already knew who sent the person who wanted to kill Jiang Qingning, and he didn't want to bend the corner, he said directly: "The person who wants to kill you is Emperor Yong'an."

Jiang Qingning actually thought of it himself, he suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and asked, "Is it because I hindered Xiao Che?"

Feng Ying pondered for a while, then nodded: "Your Highness, he likes you, but he will also be emperor in the future."

There is no need for him to make his words too clear, Jiang Qingning already understands most of it in his heart.

Emperor Yong'an loves Xiao Che very much now, and he is full of guilt towards him. Xiao Che is the smartest among all the princes, and now the only thing that hinders him from inheriting the throne in the future is his leg disease and himself.

Leg disease can be cured, Xiao Che can slowly stand up through hard work, and he himself will be eliminated.

Jiang Qingning knew that this was definitely not Xiao Che's intention, but at this moment he also suddenly felt very cold and said: "When I wanted to leave, you all wanted me to stay, but now I want to stay, but you all force me gone?"

Feng Ying frowned, and said coldly: "It's not that I want to drive you away, it's that the dog emperor has already moved to kill. He has decided that if His Highness the Sixth Highness will succeed in the future, he must eliminate all obstacles around His Highness." I can save you this time, but I may not be able to save you next time."

Jiang Qingning understood that no matter how good Feng Ying's martial arts were, he was still a mortal, and it was impossible for him to guard himself without eating, drinking or resting.

After pondering for a moment, he asked, "What if I am not afraid of death and refuse to leave?" He finally made up his mind and finally decided to stay. He has his own ideas, not objects, and he doesn't want to be manipulated easily.

Feng Ying said slowly: "Then you will embarrass His Highness Six."

Jiang Qingning froze in place.

Feng Ying said: "He can only choose between you and the throne. If he becomes an emperor in the future, he must consider the country and society and have heirs."

Jiang Qingning understood that the issue of heirs was the huge gap between him and Xiao Che, and it was impossible for him to bridge it unless... Xiao Che was willing to give up the throne for him.

But Jiang Qingning didn't have this self-confidence at all, and she didn't think she was worthy of Xiao Che's doing so.

Now he is no longer bound to Xiao Che, maybe it's not because he is greedy for life and afraid of death, but because he feels that he should not be Xiao Che's hindrance, and while their relationship is not very deep, it might not be a bad thing to break up early.

Jiang Qingning said to Feng Ying: "You go back, I should go back and rest, I will figure out many things myself."

Feng Ying has experienced what it feels like to be separated from the one he loves, he nodded: "Okay, you can rest at ease tonight, I will watch outside the house."

Jiang Qingning smiled, it was the first time for him to have such a lonely expression on his young face, and said: "No need, most of the time, I'm actually not that afraid of death."

Feng Ying's expression was complicated when he heard the words, and he only said: "But no matter what, you should take care of yourself."

Jiang Qingning said "hmm" and closed the door.

Feng Ying kept what he said, and he never left, guarding outside Jiang Qingning's house.

Jiang Qingning went back and lay down on the couch. After listening to Feng Ying's words, he felt a lot more peaceful.

He now understood that Emperor Yong'an's purpose for calling Xiao Che into the palace was to divert the tiger away from the mountain, and when Xiao Che was not around, he would be the only one.

In other words, Xiao Che must have been tripped by Emperor Yong'an in the palace, so he didn't come back tonight. Emperor Yong'an just wanted to get rid of himself, and he would not let anything happen to Xiao Che.

As long as he knew that Xiao Che was absolutely safe, Jiang Qingning would feel relieved.

He didn't have any worries, so he went to sleep peacefully.

In the early morning of the second day, Xiao Che came back.

The first time he came to see Jiang Qingning, he told Jiang Qingning what happened in the palace last night, so that he would not be suspicious and think that he had done something promiscuous.

Jiang Qingning kept silent about the fact that someone wanted to kill him last night, but looked at Xiao Che curiously, and asked, "What happened to you in the palace last night?"

Xiao Che replied with a gloomy expression: "Father suddenly became seriously ill yesterday, and he insisted on keeping me by the bed at night."

After hearing this, Jiang Qingning said very happily: "That means that His Majesty is most interested in you now, so he will let you guard him when he is seriously ill."

There was some imperceptible sarcasm on Xiao Che's face, but it flashed past, and he said with a smile: "Yes."

He said to Jiang Qingning, "Let's go for a walk."

Jiang Qingning refused, "You spent the night with His Majesty last night, you should hurry up and rest."

But Xiao Che said as if he wasn't sleepy at all: "If I rest at night, I need to move more during the day so that I can recover as soon as possible." He looked at his legs.

Jiang Qingning then said: "Okay, then I will go out with His Highness."

When they arrived at the flower garden, the chrysanthemums that Xiao Che had planted for Jiang Qingning before were still blooming proudly after being beaten by late autumn frost.

Jiang Qingning was a little surprised: "I didn't expect these flowers to be so strong."

Xiao Che said: "If you like it, next year I will let people plant the whole yard."

Jiang Qingning thought to himself, he likes it because he likes it, but Xiao Che will plant the whole yard next year, and he won't be able to see it anymore, thinking about it, he still has some regrets.

But Jiang Qingning didn't want Xiao Che to know in advance that he was going to leave, so he could only say perfunctorily: "Okay, your highness can plant it if you want."

Xiao Che seemed to be aware of Jiang Qingning's depressed mood, and suddenly asked him: "A'Ning, I was away last night, did anything happen in the mansion?"

Jiang Qingning quickly shook her head: "Nothing happened."

Xiao Che frowned: "Really?"

Jiang Qingning nodded sincerely: "Really, nothing happened."

"Then do you miss me?" Xiao Che suddenly asked again.

Jiang Qingning's face turned red in an instant, he thought Xiao Che was really thick-skinned sometimes, he just didn't see him all night, he had nothing to think about, but after a while, he still blushed and nodded, "I think about it."

Xiao Che looked very happy in an instant, and said: "I also missed you all the time last night."

Jiang Qingning: "..."

What's the use of thinking, and there will be no results between them.

Jiang Qingning has now completely agreed with what Little Chopsticks said before.

He walked with Xiao Che, helped Xiao Che to practice walking, and after lunch, the two of them read together again in the afternoon. When Jiang Qingning encountered something he didn't understand, he asked Xiao Che, and Xiao Che answered him patiently.

At night, the two reluctantly separated.

Jiang Qingning actually didn't want to leave. After all, he came from modern times, and his thinking was more open than Xiao Che's. He thought that the two of them liked each other after all. If something didn't happen, they would feel a little regretful.

He tentatively said: "How about I spend more time with His Highness tonight?"

Xiao Che said firmly, "It's late at night, you should go back early, and be careful not to catch a cold."

Jiang Qingning thought that he should be more straightforward, so she walked forward, trying to reach out to touch Xiao Che's clothes.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Che looked very nervous in an instant, and said in a low voice: "In the middle of the night, lonely and widowed, Ah Ning, you should respect yourself."

"..." Jiang Qingning was silent for a while, and could only pretend that nothing happened, so she said, "Your Highness, rest early, I'm leaving."

Xiao Che looked at Jiang Qingning's leaving back, and finally couldn't help but said: "A-Ning, it's not that I don't like you, it's just..."

Jiang Qingning looked back curiously.

Xiao Che struggled for a while with difficulty, and said, "I can't do it now, you know, my body doesn't allow it now."

Jiang Qingning nodded sympathetically, and said, "I know, Your Highness, you should rest earlier."

Looking at him, Xiao Che seemed to have a lot to say, but thinking that everything he said now was just empty words, so he held back, thinking that it would not be too late to say it when all the dust settled in the future.

Jiang Qingning turned his head and continued walking, but when he was a little further away, he couldn't help but look back at the lights in Xiao Che's room.

He really wanted to tell Xiao Che: Your Highness, it's not that I don't like you, but because I'm a man, I really can't give birth to you.
