Chu Jinghuai nodded.

Chen Jingxi saw that he was still standing there, glancing at her from time to time. What else did he want to do? Could it be... Goosebumps broke out all over her body.

"Your Highness, do you have anything else to do? If not, I will rest first. After all, I am still a patient and cannot withstand any more hardship." Chen Jingxi emphasized the word "patient".

Chu Jinghuai naturally understood what she meant. He looked like a person worse than a beast?

Looking at the wet spot on his chest, this damn woman didn't even bother to wipe it clean.

Chu Jinghuai gritted his teeth and said, "Nothing."

Then he turned and left.

Watching him leave, Chen Jingxi breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, Chunmei came in, swallowed her saliva and said, "Princess, did the prince do anything to you?"

Chen Jingxi waved his hand.

Chunmei continued to ask, "Why did the prince leave?" Since the prince was not angry with the princess, he should not have left at this time.

"If he wants to leave, he can leave. How would I know what he's thinking?" Chen Jingxi said indifferently. She certainly wouldn't say that she drove him away.

Seeing Chen Jingxi's indifferent look, Chunmei lamented again, "Princess, you are not going to make the prince angry again, are you?"

"His heart is as small as a needle hole. Can you blame me? I can be angry. It's not the first time anyway."

Chunmei stamped her feet anxiously, "Oh, Princess, we just received a letter from the palace, saying that the master wants you to take the prince back tomorrow."

"I can just go back by myself?"

"Princess, you're leaving on your own after three days of marriage. This is unprecedented in the entire Great Xia. However, since the prince is away on a military expedition, there's nothing we can do."

"Now that the prince has returned, you're still going back on your own. How can this shame the master? Although the prince's status is noble, what son-in-law wouldn't go to see his father-in-law?"

"If this gets out, how will the master still be able to gain a foothold in the court? The poor old lady has fallen ill because of the princess, and now she can't even see her grandson-in-law."

Having said this, Chunmei was already wiping away her tears.

Chen Jingxi frowned. Although he didn't have any feelings for them, he felt bad after hearing what Chunmei said. The old lady must have really loved the original owner.

"Okay, stop crying. I will take the prince back with me tomorrow."

Chunmei looked up at Chen Jingxi and asked softly, "Will the prince go back with you? Or should you go and apologize to the prince now?"

"Don't worry, I have a way to make him agree." An apology was out of the question.

——

"Your Highness, were you... kicked out by the princess?" Suddenly a man in black jumped down from the tree.

Chu Jinghuai stopped and a faint smile appeared on his cold face.

At this time, another man in black jumped down from the roof, "Your Highness, someone from the Chen family just came."

Chu Jing was interested. "What's the matter?"

"Master Chen asks the prince and princess to return to the Chen family tomorrow."

"Oh, really?"

The man glanced at Chu Jinghuai secretly and saw that he was smiling, and this smile was obviously different from before. He knew that his silly brother was fine.

"I see."

And a idiot teammate is an idiot teammate. At this time, he said, "Your Highness, the princess has kicked you out, and you still want to accompany her back to her parents' home?"

The other man in black staggered and glared at the man. How could he know such an inconsiderate brother? He kept bringing up things that were irrelevant to the topic. One day, he would be implicated and killed by him.

"Ling Feng, what nonsense are you talking about? How could the prince be driven out by the princess? All the ladies in this palace are eagerly waiting for the prince, and naturally the princess is no exception."

Chu Jinghuai snorted coldly, "Who said that I was driven out by the princess? I just don't want to live under the same roof with her. As for returning to the Chen family...if she comes to ask me for help, I can still consider it."

"Yes, yes, since the prince doesn't like the princess, why not go to the side courtyard." The ladies in the side courtyard all like you.

When Chu Jinghuai mentioned the group of women in the side courtyard, he was very disdainful. "What are you going to do? Go back to the study."

"yes."

After Chu Jinghuai walked away, Ling Feng scratched his head and said, "Ling Ying, this prince was clearly driven out by the princess, why doesn't he admit it?"

Ling Ying held his forehead and looked up at the sky. "Oh my God! Even if I'm guilty, you don't have to punish me like this and make me partner with this stupid person."

The next day.

Early in the morning, Chu Jinghuai was helped by servants to dress and stayed in the study to handle official business. From time to time, he looked at the door, with a faint smile in his cold eyes.

When he thought about how Chen Jingxi would beg him later, he felt even more refreshed.

"Ling Ying, what do you think the prince is grinning at?"

"Don't ask too much about the prince's affairs. If you really want to know, go and get a wife."

"What does this have to do with me getting married? Besides, I'm so young and haven't achieved anything yet, so why would I want to get married?"

Ling Ying shook his head. It seemed that he would have to take this kid to Chunfeng Tower someday. Among their group, Ling Feng was one of the best in martial arts, but he knew nothing about matters between men and women.

Chu Jinghuai watched the sun rise higher and higher, his brows tightening, and suddenly stood up, "Someone come here."

The servant hurried in and saluted, "Your Majesty."

Chu Jinghuai tapped the desk rhythmically with his index finger, and after a moment of contemplation, he said, "Go and see what the princess is doing."

The servant was stunned for a moment, then quickly said respectfully, "The princess just left the palace."

"She left the house?"

The servant nodded and said, "Before the princess left, she gave me a letter saying..."

"Give it to me." The servant was interrupted before he could finish his words, so he had to hand over the letter first.

After a while, there was a loud "bang" and the desk broke into two pieces. Some of the secret guards on the trees and roofs slipped and fell down, and the birds were startled and flew away. Everyone looked at each other in confusion.

Chu Jinghuai gnashed his teeth in anger and crumpled the letter into a ball. "Chen, Jing, Xi."

The servant cried in his heart, Princess, you have killed me.

"Prepare the horses."

In the carriage, Chen Jingxi leaned comfortably on the soft pillow. There was a small table in the middle, on which were placed tea sets, cakes, and fine tea.

Chunmei asked anxiously, "Princess, will the prince come after he sees the letter?"

Chen Jingxi put a piece of cake into his mouth and clapped his hands, "Of course."

Chunmei opened a corner of the car window and said worriedly, "But we're almost there."

"Don't worry, I can tell fortunes." Chen Jingxi boasted without hesitation.

As soon as she finished speaking, a cold voice rang out from outside: "Really? How come I didn't know that the princess had this ability?"

The corner of Chen Jingxi's eye twitched. Speak of the devil, and he'd show up. "Your Highness, what a coincidence! Where are you going?"

Chunmei hurriedly got off the carriage, and finally glanced at her master, thinking to herself: Princess, please take it easy, the look in my eyes when I look at the prince looks like he wants to kill you.

"Princess, have you ever considered the consequences of framing this king?"
