Chu Di raised his eyebrows slightly, "Do you really want me to be responsible for you?"

Chu Li pursed her lips.

Looking at his frivolous look, he was teasing her, and she even found herself funny when she said such words.

Why would he care about her life or death?

"I just want a way out. Uncle, you are so high up, so naturally you can't understand the pain of little people like us."

"Don't worry, there is a way out for you in this big world."

Chu Li didn't like the feeling of being controlled by others, as if he was asking for his favor.

"If you don't need me to bandage you, I'll go back."

As soon as she got off the table, he grabbed her wrist.

The gauze was placed in the palm of her hand.

She pursed her lips and said, "Lie down."

Chu Dichi suddenly raised his eyes. These two words sounded familiar. There was a different flavor when they came from her mouth.

Chu Li wiped away the gauze and waited for a while. Seeing that he didn't move, but looked at her with deep black eyes, her heart suddenly skipped a beat.

She was too familiar with this kind of gaze.

"you……"

"What did you say just now?" He suddenly leaned over and got very close to her.

"I...I told you to lie down, but you didn't. How can I bandage you? Your wound is on your back. Do you want to lie down?" Chu Li puffed out his chest and glared at him sternly.

What else can I do?

What's in your head?

"Oh." Seeing her angry look, he suddenly laughed, let go of her, and lay down on the couch over there.

Chu Li pulled open his clothes.

There was a long knife wound on the man's well-proportioned back, and blood had already stained his skin, but the deep line of the spine went deep into the crotch and disappeared in a hidden direction. He was so strong without a trace of fat, and was very pleasing to the eye.

As expected of someone who has been fighting for years, his physical fitness is several times higher than that of ordinary people.

That taut back hides a strong explosive power, like a leopard full of strength, able to deliver a fatal blow at any time.

Chu Li was quite good at bandaging the wound because she always loved to cause trouble when playing with Chu Aotian and was often punished and scolded.

Deal with it quickly.

She withdrew her hand and was about to leave, but he took it back with one hand.

"It's so late, just sleep here."

The couch was not big, so he lay on his side and held her in his arms. It was thin and small, like a human-shaped pillow, just right.

"I want to go back to the palace."

"The palace gates have been locked. Besides, when did you become so obedient?"

"I……"

"Don't talk, Xiaojiu," he hugged her tightly with both hands, curled up his long arms, and pressed his broad chest tightly against her back. The close contact reflected his contours perfectly on her body.

Be thin where you need to be thin.

There is meat where there should be meat.

"If you move any more, you'll wake it up."

-

That night, Chu Li tensed up and trembled with fear. She was not used to lying with him like this. But in the second half of the night, she fell asleep unknowingly.

When I opened my eyes again, it was already daybreak.

Chongfeng is here.

"Master, we have found out that the gang of bullies received five hundred taels of silver and took advantage of the chaos during the Mid-Autumn Festival to sneak into the imperial city and kidnap a man wearing a lion mask."

He glanced at Chu Li and whispered:

"This matter may be... related to the palace."

Chu Li sat there with a normal look in his eyes.

Lion mask.

Last night, it was Wen Ya who led them to the stall selling lanterns, and it was she who said that she liked the lion mask and asked her to help with a poem.

At that time, Qin Muxue said she liked it, so she gave her the lion mask.

Come to think of it, the person that group of bullies wanted to kidnap was her.

But she had no grudge against Wen Ya, so why did Wen Ya want to harm her?

The last time her eyes were burned and she was recuperating at the Wen family, it was also Wen Ya... Oh, it was the Seventh Prince.

This is not difficult to guess.

Chu Li guessed the key immediately.

"I'm going back to the palace first."

Although what happened last night was suppressed, the King of Chu knew about it. He sent Shuntian Prefecture to investigate the matter thoroughly and summoned Qin Muyu and his sister to inquire about their situation.

"Are you injured?"

Qin Muyu and Qin Muxue knelt down and replied, expressing their gratitude for the emperor's grace.

To be honest, Qin Muxue was drugged at the time. She was unconscious the whole time and had no idea what was going on. She only felt a little sore in her body when she woke up.

After the King of Chu asked a few questions, Chu Li finally came.

"Your son pays respects to the Emperor."

Emperor Chu looked at her and asked, "Xiao Jiu, didn't you stay with General Qin last night? How come you just came after they entered the palace for a while?"

Chu Li paused slightly.

On the side, Qin Muyu's eyes darkened slightly.

last night……

He was not with the Ninth Prince.

From what the emperor said, the Ninth Prince was not in the palace last night, nor was she with him. So she was...

Thinking of the regent holding her back to the city, that lonely and cold posture, she said:

"It's all over, General Qin."

Now that I think about it, I realize that the curve of the Regent's thin lips seemed a bit sarcastic.

He is being provocative.

He is showing off.

Qin Muxue turned her head in confusion, "Last night, the Ninth Prince was..."

"Your Majesty, the Ninth Prince was sleepy and woke up late. I did not call her. It is my fault." Qin Muyu replied.

What is the big brother talking about?

Last night, the Ninth Prince clearly did not live with them.

Why would you lie, bro?

Chu Li pursed his lips and said, "It is because I am lazy and sleepy that I have no intention of making progress. I hope that Father will punish me."

The King of Chu patted her head lovingly, "I heard that there was a bully causing trouble in the city last night. Although he was subdued, I am glad as long as you are okay."

Chu Li choked up a little: "Father..."

"Why do you have to work so hard? My silly son, you were born into the royal family and you are here to enjoy life. If everyone is ambitious and talented, there will be not enough space for everyone to share."

Where there is black, there is white.

Where there is evil, there is justice.

There is hard work and there is laziness.

Everything is opposite. Allow yourself to exist and respect the existence of others.

"Okay, go back and rest, I still have a lot of memorials to deal with."

"Thank you, Father."

At this time, Wang Defu walked in and said, "Your Majesty, the Seventh Prince wants to come and pay his respects to you. He is waiting outside."

The King of Chu frowned, his expression faded, "Tell him to cultivate his virtues in the Royal Academy, don't run around for no reason, and don't come around me."

After doing such a shameful thing as defiling my wife, you still have the nerve to come and pay your respects to him?

Chu Li's eyes turned slightly.

Exit the Imperial Study.

Chu Jinglin heard the footsteps and thought it was his father who summoned him. He turned around happily and immediately stopped smiling. "Chu Li."

Chu Li came out:

"Are you surprised? Disappointed? I didn't die."
