Chapter 35 The Chasm
Qingzhu was worried about his brothers.
Xie Yunzhao snorted coldly: "Why would Sui Han leave the house at this time?"
"I understand, Second Master." There was no way out. Since this concerned the princess, he could not escape the punishment.
On his way back to Chaohuiyuan, Xie Yun suddenly changed direction.
Shen Shurong's carriage had already passed a street when it suddenly stopped.
Sui Han lifted the curtain to see, "Why did it stop?" Seeing the man in front of the carriage, he quickly put it down, "Master, it's Master Xie."
Anger welled up in Shen Shurong's heart. What did he want to do with her again? "What's up?"
"You shouldn't come at this hour." Xie Yunzheng's tone was tougher than usual.
Shen Shurong rolled his eyes, “I know.”
Xie Yunzheng raised his drooping eyes for a moment. She... listened to him?
I felt a little hopeful and would tell him the truth: "Have you...felt attracted to him?" Really!
Chen Shurong knew very well that he might not really be unable to let go of her, but it was his competitive spirit that was at work.
He just hoped that he would be depressed and unhappy because he couldn't let go of him, stay away from or even get tired of Xie Yunzhao, and live in a state of being unable to be loved.
"Brother Zheng can't bear to see me doing well, and thinks I should die, right?"
Xie Yunzheng waved his hands hastily, "That's not what I meant."
"He has protected me many times like a brother, and he is the one I will spend my life with. Should I just be content and ignore everything?"
Xie Yunzheng's eyes lit up slightly. Did she mean to treat Xie Yunzhao as her brother?
So that's how it is. He was really scared, scared that she no longer thought of him as him in her heart.
"I understand."
Shen Shurong said nonchalantly to the outside of the carriage: “Our marriage is over, and now we can only live in peace by watching from a distance.”
Xie Yunzheng couldn't help but nodded and promised: "Okay, I won't cause you any more trouble in the future, I will just watch from a distance."
"Let's go." Shen Shurong sneered in his heart. You are not willing to accept this, right? I'm afraid you will never accept this in this life.
Xie Yun rushed to make way and let the carriage go first.
Chiyu followed him back to the mansion, hesitating to speak, "My Lord..."
"explain."
"If you stop her carriage like this, people will see..."
"Two maids, no one knows it's her, and those who know won't tell anyone."
"Yes, my Lord, the princess also has her own difficulties."
Xie Yunzheng curled the corners of his lips: "I was wrong. I thought she had changed her mind. I just realized her dilemma."
Akabane raised his eyebrows and said that it was better to talk it out, so that the prince would not lose control in the future.
......
At Linfengju, when Qingying came back, Qingzhu was guarding outside the door.
Xie Yunzhao got out of bed when he heard his footsteps.
Qing Ying leaned against the door frame angrily, and with a bang, Qing Zhu jumped in fear. "What's wrong? Who made you angry?"
Qing Ying was filled with anger, but he didn't want to say, "It's okay."
"Aren't you going to see the princess off? What happened? Tell me now!"
The person inside the door paused.
"The prince has chased after him."
Qing Zhu was shocked, "How dare he? He even said that I don't care about the reputation of the princess. Is it okay for him to meet the princess privately?"
"It's a trivial matter." Qingying's cheeks puffed up, feeling sorry for the Second Master!
"Is this still a small matter?" Qingzhu was confused. What else could be considered a big deal? "He got into the carriage? He met the princess alone?"
"No." Qing Ying glared at him. If he dared to do so, he would show up and fight him to the death. No matter what kind of prince he was, he was going too far.
Qingzhu felt relieved and patted his chest, thinking, "It's good that it's not the case."
"But..." Qing Ying lowered his voice and whispered into Qing Zhu's ear: "The princess said that she only regards the Second Master as her brother."
Qing Ying didn't want to say it, but he felt uncomfortable holding it in his heart, "Second Master has saved her many times in vain."
Qingzhu felt a little unfair when she heard this, but she knew the seriousness of the matter and said, "Don't tell the master about this."
"Of course I know. Fortunately, I was escorting her in secret, otherwise I wouldn't have heard her true feelings. If I wasn't afraid that Second Master would worry, I wouldn't have wanted to protect her and would have turned around and returned home."
Qing Zhu pinched his arm, "We already knew about this, didn't we? How could she forget it in such a short time...Okay, it will get better slowly."
Qingying sighed weakly. Qingzhu was right. They all knew that the princess could not forget the prince so quickly, but they still felt sorry for their master.
The two were so distressed that they didn't know that the people inside the door already knew everything.
Xie Yunzhao sat back on the bed silently. He knew he shouldn't think too much, but Ke Xin... it hurts so much.
When they first got engaged, he thought that as long as he could marry her, it didn't matter who she loved.
Later she said that he accepted it as her brother because it was better than nothing.
But the time they had spent together had made his heart greedy, and he wanted to tie both the person and their heart to himself.
Is she being nice to me just because she's afraid I'll doubt her and she's acting that out on purpose?
It was his fault. He shouldn't have put Rongrong under pressure and shouldn't have made her afraid.
What if I don’t have myself in my heart?
It's better than him being his uncle and her being his sister-in-law, with a gap between them that cannot be crossed in a lifetime.
Be generous, be free and easy, it's good to have people around you.
After comforting himself several times, Xie Yunzhao still felt the pain in his heart.
At the Princess's Mansion, Chen Shurong sneaked back. How could such a small action be hidden from the real owner of the Princess's Mansion?
"Look at this silly girl. She comes back only when it's almost dark!" Old Master Shen paced back and forth in the room.
The princess drank her tea calmly, "Don't scold her in my room, go to her courtyard and scold her."
The old lady was so angry that she turned around a few times but couldn't bear to leave, so she sat down on the chair, "Girls are extroverts, girls are extroverts!"
"You become like the people you follow. She was never like this before when she wanted to marry Yun Zheng!"
The princess patted his hands and said calmly, "There is an imperial decree granting the marriage, and the wedding date is approaching, it's nothing. Besides, she is a princess and will be in charge of the entire treasury in the future, so she should be bolder and more courageous."
"This is the girl. If it was your grandson, going out to see other girls, would you still lose your temper?"
The old tutor tilted her head and looked at her. What's the reason?
After thinking about it again, it seems to be right.
Seeing that he was not angry, the princess smiled and said, "We will raise Yongjia as our grandson in the future. She is the head of a mansion."
Old Master Shen glared at her and asked, "Do you want to take two male concubines for Yongjia?"
