Chapter 31: How about Your Highness ferrying me across the river?

In the side room, Su Yuheng was still sitting on the edge of Su Yanqiu's bed, looking at him quietly on the bed.

At that time, Liuli came in from outside and walked in front of Su Yuheng. She saw that her eyes were red and she was not angry at all.

"Fourth Miss, it's getting late. How about letting this servant guard here while you go back to Fangfei Courtyard to rest?"

Su Yuheng pursed his lips and said in a weak voice: "Brother is still in a coma, how can I rest?"

She staggered up from the bed, and just as she was about to move, she pretended to collapse.

She really didn't want to stay with Su Yanqiu.

Seeing this, Liuli quickly helped her limp body up and said distressedly, "Miss, you have exhausted yourself for our prince. Miss, go and rest, I will keep watch over you."

Su Yuheng pursed his pale lips, looked at Liuli, and his voice was gentle.

"I won't rest until my second brother wakes up."

"I heard that if a sincere person goes to the Buddha to pray, it will definitely move the heavens. Tonight I will go to the temple to pray for my second brother, hoping that he can wake up soon."

"But how is the young lady's health?" Liuli asked worriedly.

Su Yuheng shook his head, his eyes fell on Su Yanqiu, and he whispered, "My body is fine. As long as my second brother can wake up, everything is worth it to me."

After saying that, she turned and left the room.

Su Yanqiu was lying on the bed and heard the conversation between Su Yuheng and Liuli clearly.

He didn't expect that Su Yuheng was really deeply in love with him.

When Su Yuheng left Qingfengyuan with his maids Baizhi and Bailu, Liu and Liu Jinshu had not yet returned to the Su family.

I guess the two of them will have to kneel in the emperor's bedroom all night today.

"Miss, shall we go back to Fangfeiyuan?" Baizhi asked.

Su Yuheng said expressionlessly, "Just go back to Fangfei Courtyard, I'll go to the Buddhist temple to pray for my second brother."

Su Yanqiu will wake up soon, so I have to let him watch another show.

Bai Zhi looked at Su Yuheng's pale lips and said, "But the young lady didn't even rest tonight. How can you treat yourself like this?"

Su Yuheng's eyes were indifferent, his gaze fixed on the dark night in the courtyard.

"I know, you don't have to worry."

After Su Yuheng finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the Su family Buddhist temple.

The two maids stood there motionless, watching Su Yuheng leave, feeling a little distressed.

The two of them still did not return to Fangfeiyuan, and followed Su Yuheng to the Buddhist temple.

After Su Yuheng entered the Buddhist hall, he asked two maids to guard the side of the hall.

"If someone comes to the Buddhist temple later, don't alert them."

"Yes, Miss." Bai Lu said

In the silent Buddhist temple, the dim candlelight flickered slightly, slightly rolling up the yellow flag in the temple.

After Su Yuheng entered the Buddhist hall, he took a look at the Buddha statue in front of him and knelt down on the cushion.

She closed her eyes quietly, clasped her hands together, and prayed devoutly.

However, he was not praying that Su Yanqiu's poison could be cured, but praying that his brother Shen Tingzhou would be safe.

"Please bless me, my brother, and I hope you are safe and sound."

"Heh." A slightly sarcastic snort suddenly came from behind him, and Su Yuheng slowly opened his eyes.

Looking back, he saw Huo Xingzhi in black leaning nonchalantly against a pillar. His eyes fell on him with a hint of amusement.

"Huo Xingzhi?"

Huo Xingzhi stood up straight, stretched out his slender hands and clapped nonchalantly.

"You acted so well that even I believed it."

He walked towards the girl step by step, and then stopped in front of her.

Su Yuheng knelt on the mat, her head half tilted back as she met his eyes.

Huo Xingzhi looked down at her with interest.

The girl has fair skin, and her facial features look more three-dimensional under the candlelight. Her clear eyes have a slightly reddish tint at the corners.

"Crying?" he asked her.

Su Yuheng pursed his lips and sneered, "Fake."

Upon hearing this, Huo Xingzhi slowly squatted down, his eyes fell on her face, and he carefully examined her expression.

"When false is true, true is false. Do you really not have any feelings for him? Or do you have something to hide?"

Under the candlelight, the girl's eyebrows and eyes are dark black, and her delicate and small nose is very three-dimensional under the candlelight.

She raised her eyes to look at Huo Xingzhi's deep black eyes and sneered, "No."

If we talk about her previous life, she didn't know her own life experience, and her feelings for Su Yanqiu were only brotherly.

When she was neglected by the Su family, it was Su Yanqiu who comforted her, pampered her and protected her.

Unfortunately, in the end, these gentleness turned into sharp blades stabbing her body.

She remembered the scene of being sent to the King of Qi's chamber.

That was her nightmare.

The King of Qi was brutal and terrifying, and his only desire was to torture and destroy her.

In the dark and gloomy room, the King of Qi grabbed her hair roughly and threw her into the corner.

Her heart-wrenching cries and roars did not move Su Yanqiu outside the door.

Later, she escaped by jumping out of the window and went to the palace to meet the retired emperor at night, but by that time the rumor that she had climbed into the bed of the King of Qi had already spread throughout the capital.

In desperation, she asked Su Yanqiu to testify for her, but Su Yanqiu and none of the so-called family members of the Su family stood behind her, so she was betrothed to the King of Qi.

She didn't dare to think about those dark days.

"Huo Xingzhi, I want to ask you something."

Huo Xingzhi raised his eyebrows and looked at her meaningfully.

"you say."

Su Yuheng asked, "I've seen the jade pendant on your waist somewhere before. Can you show it to me?"

Huo Xingzhi was a little surprised. His eyes fell on the girl's face, then he reached out and pulled off a piece of emerald green jade from his waist and handed it to Su Yuheng.

"You mean this one?"

Su Yuheng placed the jade pendant in the palm of his hand and looked at it carefully.

Under the dim candlelight, the emerald green jade pendant was transparent and crystal clear, and it was obvious that it was an extraordinary item.

In her previous life, she was reborn because she saw this jade pendant.

"how?"

Su Yuheng shook his head, looked up at Huo Xingzhi and said, "It's nothing, I just feel very familiar, I've seen it in a dream."

She handed the jade pendant to Huo Xingzhi and looked at him with her sparkling eyes.

Huo Xingzhi casually glanced at the jade pendant in Su Yuheng's hand.

"I've seen it in a dream, but it's strange."

Just as he stretched out his hand to pick up the jade pendant, Su Yuheng suddenly tightened his grip and held the other half of the jade pendant in his palm.

Huo Xingzhi's hand only pinched the red line on the jade pendant.

Under the candlelight, the two looked at each other, frozen in place because of a piece of jade.

Their light breaths intertwined with each other, and Huo Xingzhi could even smell the faint scent of peach blossoms on her body.

He raised his thin lips in a faint smile and whispered, "This is a Buddhist temple, you are not allowed to do anything rash."

Su Yuheng curled his lips slightly: "What about the Buddhist temple? If the Buddha doesn't save me, how about Your Highness saving me?"

Huo Xingzhi put down the red string and said in a low, magnetic voice, "If you like it, I'll give it to you."

As he stood up from the ground, he felt a hand grab his wrist.

Huo Xingzhi's body stiffened slightly, and when he lowered his eyes, he saw Su Yuheng's wet eyes looking at him.
