With a bang, the cup in Laner's hand fell to the ground.

Chu Yu seemed to be awakened suddenly, reacted, threw off Chu Rui's hand, pushed him back and staggered, and stared at him dumbfounded.

Chu Rui didn't think this kiss was a temporary idea.

He looked at Chu Yu's blushing face, ruddy lips stained with water, and those staring round eyes because he didn't know whether he was shy or angry, and felt that there was a reason for this impulse.

Even now that he calmed down, he still wanted to kiss him.

As if something broke all the prejudices and worries in his heart at this moment, why did he have such an impulse, he began to face up to his feelings.

He touched Chu Yu's ear with one hand, and suddenly realized that this feeling was like the first time he beat his teacher in chess, and when he got a very rare copy that he had tried so hard to get.

Before he savored the mystery, Chu Yu opened his hand.

He lowered his eyes, looked at Chu Yu whose eyes were slowly stained with anger, and said with a smile in his tone, "Since you don't want to, why didn't you push me away earlier?"

"..." Chu Yu lost all confidence when he was about to blurt out a question.

He couldn't say that he was scared stupid just now.

"I didn't expect Brother Huang to be such a frivolous person," Chu Yu said angrily, trying to hide his bewilderment and embarrassment.

"Well," I didn't expect Chu Rui to nod generously and admit it, "I didn't think I was such a frivolous person."

Having been upright for more than ten years, it was the first time that he did such a thing to take advantage of others. Chu Rui actually found that this feeling is not bad.

Could it be that after staying with Brother Meng for a long time, has he become a lot more frivolous like him?

He thought about it for a while, and quickly put this thought behind him. He turned his face and looked at Lan'er who was standing aside and wished he could curl himself into a ball, "You go down first, I have something to say to your master explain."

Seeing Lan Er going out without looking back, Chu Yu was speechless for a moment, and suddenly realized that after Lan Er went out, only him and brother Huang were left.

He belatedly felt that there was some danger, and he looked at Chu Rui vigilantly, "Brother Huang, you won't think about it again"

He couldn't say that word.

Chu Rui raised his eyebrows, "Now you know you are afraid?"

Seeing that Chu Yu still had lingering fears, Chu Rui sneered, "I usually look very courageous, but now I'm afraid of kissing?"

Before making people angry, he stopped in time and quickly changed the subject, "If the father can survive this time, it will be auspicious, I'm afraid"

Chu Yu glared at him, and pondered for a while after listening to his words, "Is there really no other way?"

Chu Rui put his hands on his chin, thought for a while, and shook his head, "Most of the imperial doctors in the palace are experienced, but they have never been exposed to such intractable diseases, and even they are helpless this time."

Chu Yu sighed deeply.

He couldn't explain what emotion he had towards the man who had no blood relationship with him but had to be called Father. He only knew that he didn't want him to die.

Chu Rui rubbed his head as a comfort.

late at night.

Lan'er approached Chu Yu's bedroom on tiptoe, lifted his bed curtain, peeked inside, confirmed that he was asleep, and then extinguished the burning incense in the palace, and said a few words to the night watch maid, Then he went out alone.

She took a palace lantern from a palace lady who was passing the night watch, tightened the heavy palace skirt around her body, sneezed softly, and looked around guiltily.

The side door of Tingzhu Building has been in disrepair for many years, few people pass through here, vines and withered grass are all over the door, especially at night, it is gloomy, and even the night watch eunuchs are rarely willing to come here.

Xiao Lizi was on the night shift today, and he was unlucky enough to lose the boxing match with someone. He was leaning against the side door of Tingzhulou and was yawning sleepily. Get a thrill.

He rubbed his eyes only to realize that it was Lan Er, and quickly called her to stop in a low voice.

"Sister Lan'er, sister Lan'er! Where are you going?"

Lan'er originally had something on her mind, but at this moment she was shocked when he called her. She raised her head and saw that it was him before she breathed a sigh of relief and stroked her chest.

She shook her head and explained, "I accidentally lost the hairpin when I was visiting the imperial garden with my master during the day. I just found it and wanted to go out and look for it."

Xiao Lizi didn't notice anything unusual, he yawned lazily, rubbed the back of his head, "Sister Lan'er, I'll go find it with you."

Lan'er quickly shook her hand, "No need, I remember where I lost the hairpin, I'll be right back when I get it."

Xiao Lizi blinked, "Alright then, sister Lan'er, come back early."

Lan'er nodded, looked around again, and hurried out.

Xiao Lizi tilted his head and thought for a while, then suddenly laughed, and said to himself, "Sister Lan'er won't like any of the little guards, so go secretly."

There are also many cases where the guards and maids in the palace have secret love affairs. Although the palace bans it, there are still many bold men and women who break the ban for love.

Although he was very curious in his heart, he glanced at the dark road outside the old door and touched his goosebumped arm, but he didn't have the courage to secretly follow.

After finally getting rid of Xiao Lizi, Lan'er couldn't help but look back all the way, she let her hair down on both sides to cover her face, and hurried to the imperial garden.

Feeling in the dark, she found the wooden hairpin under the rockery in the Royal Garden in the sunset.

After picking it up quickly, she looked around again, clenched her fists, turned around and walked towards the opposite direction of Tingzhulou.

Outside the gate of the East Palace, a court lady was about to rush in, but two guards stopped her, but she took out a waist card and waved it in front of them with her head lowered.

The two exchanged and realized that a guard nodded at her, "Follow me."

As soon as she stepped into the door of the Eastern Palace, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed her sore shoulders, and followed the attendant step by step.

Over the years, even though she has come here many times, she can't get used to it. Every step seems to be stepping on a cliff, and if she takes a wrong step, she will be doomed.

Maybe she was already doomed.

Chu Qing was still asleep, with a heavy blanket draped over his body, leaning against the side of the couch, holding a book in his hand, without lifting his head.

Lan'er knelt down on the ground, "Master."

Chu Qing threw the book aside, raised his eyelids and glanced at her lazily, "Why didn't you come last time?"

Lan'er nervously clenched her hands hidden in her sleeves, and replied cautiously, "Master, the last time His Highness the Sixth Prince was injured, the slaves were worried about his injury, so they stayed by His side day and night. If you leave His Highness, you must aware."

Chu Qing sneered, and looked at her jokingly, "Oh? What? Do you think he hasn't noticed yet? Is he such a stupid person in your heart?"

Lan'er bit her lower lip and didn't speak.

Although she already knew it, she still had a little fantasy in her heart.

Chu Qing propped his head on one hand, and looked down at her condescendingly, "Over the years, you have become more and more loyal to protect the master. Don't forget who is your master and whose dog you are."

Lan'er lowered her head, revealing her supple nape, without hesitation, "It's you, master."

When she first entered the palace, she was ignorant and offended a concubine with a bad temper. If Chu Qing hadn't rescued her, she might have died already, so her life was given by Chu Qing, and she couldn't do it no matter what. betray him.

Seeing that she hadn't forgotten, Chu Qing curled the corners of her lips in satisfaction, and picked up the book he had left aside again, "Tell me about Yu'er's recent situation."

Lan'er pondered for a while, and spoke quickly, "His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince is not in a good mood recently. His Majesty's illness makes him very worried, and he eats less than usual. His Royal Highness the Second Prince often comes to listen to the bamboo building these days. They seem to have had a bit of trouble these days, His Royal Highness the Second Prince had a bad face when he came here today, and he talked to His Highness the Sixth Prince about His Majesty's illness."

After finishing this series of words, she closed her mouth again as if she had completed her task, without saying a word.

As for what she saw today, she subconsciously chose to conceal it, but she was really not good at lying, and her tone was a little stiff when she shut up.

Chu Qing glanced at her in surprise, "That's all?"

Lan'er lowered her head and nodded after a while.

She was a little apprehensive, knowing that Chu Qing was uncertain, she was afraid of offending him.

Unexpectedly, Chu Qing was in a good mood. After being silent for a while, he laughed a few times, and suddenly spoke about something irrelevant.

He said with emotion, "Lan'er, do you know why I sent you to Yu'er's side seven years ago?"

If he wanted to choose someone to monitor and take care of Chu Yu, he had a better choice. There were many people who were more prudent and intelligent than her, not the stupid girl who was ignorant and simple, reckless and careless.

Even now it doesn't look like much progress.

Sometimes Lan'er couldn't figure out this problem, so she simply kept silent and waited for Chu Qing to deal with it.

Chu Qing sighed, and half-jokingly said, "It's because, I think, it is because you are such a person that Yu'er likes you, knows that you have evil intentions, and still allows you to stay with him." side."

Lan'er's body trembled slightly, and two drops of clear tears fell on the ground. After a long time, she dared to choke up in a low voice.

Now her use value is not much, Chu Qing didn't care about her too much, and waved his hand, "You don't need to come here in the future, just take good care of Yu'er."

Lan'er raised her head in disbelief, she didn't expect Chu Qing to let her go so easily, but soon after she understood what Chu Qing was saying, her face changed again.

She bit her lower lip to the point of bleeding, nodded, "Yes"

Chu Qing looked away casually, "Go out."

Lan'er stood up, only to realize that for some reason her legs were numb from her knees, and she limped out with the guards.

I don't know how long she walked until she could see the eaves of the Tingzhu Building, and her legs and feet returned to normal. She walked around the crowded place, and when she entered through the side door of the Tingzhu Building, Xiao Lizi was heartless. He fell asleep against the wall with the palace lantern in his arms.

She bypassed him and walked in from the side path without disturbing him.

I heard that the eunuchs and maids in the Zhulou knew the maid in charge, many court ladies saw her and saluted her along the way, but she didn't see her like a wandering soul until she returned to Chu Yu's bedroom.

Outside the bedroom, a young maid called out in a low voice, "Sister Lan'er, you're back."

Lan'er nodded, and glanced into the hall, "How is it? Your Highness slept well."

The little maid nodded timidly, "His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince slept very well, but just woke up once, complained of thirst, drank water and fell asleep again."

Lan'er hesitated for a moment, and told her, "Cheer up and keep vigil."

The little maid answered.

Afraid of waking Chu Yu up, Lan'er took off her shoes, held them in her hands, and walked in lightly.

Chu Yu was sleeping soundly, completely unaware that Lan'er raised the curtain and stared at him deeply. After watching for a long time, she put down the curtain, put her shoes aside, and knelt down beside Chu Yu's bed, holding her breath, Keep vigil for him.

If only it could go on like this forever.

she thought silently.

Her master is so immortal and treats her very well. She is fortunate to be able to serve him by his side, but she is not grateful and has different intentions. A person like her may be struck by lightning in the future.

Master's smile, master's anger, master's profile while reading, master's satisfied smile when eating, every scene seems to be carved in the bottom of her heart like a knife. Betrayed him for the first time, betrayed him.

She leaned her head against the pillar, and at some point, tears had flowed from her eyes to the corners of her mouth, but she didn't dare to make a sound.
