Seeing that the Crown Prince seemed lost in thought, Chen Yu hurriedly took her leave: "Your Highness, we still need to continue searching for Hongyu, so we must take our leave now."
The three hurriedly left, and seeing the Crown Prince rush into the Imperial City Guard, Shen Yu pulled Cui Wei back and hid opposite the Imperial City Guard to wait for the Crown Prince's actions. Unexpectedly, Liu Yu pulled her into the sedan chair.
Liu Yu lowered his head, lost in thought and remained silent. Last night, he rescued Chen Yu from a raging inferno, and Mu Nanfeng told him a secret:
Shen Yu and Bai Yehua have a contract that Bai Yehua will divorce Shen Yu after he returns and Liu Yao'er becomes his concubine.
The reason why Shen Yu made a contract with Bai Yehua must be because she cared about him. Before, Shen Yu also said that she would not marry anyone but him.
Looking up, he saw Chen Yu staring at him with a puzzled expression.
He grabbed Chenyu's hand and whispered sweetly, "Yuyu, promise Yulang that you will not get close to the Crown Prince in the future. Just wait for Yulang to return in Chengyuan."
"Yu Yu" and "Yu Lang"—such familiar and intimate terms of address stirred up Shen Yu's heart. Facing Liu Yu's expectant eyes, she lowered her head shyly and remained silent.
Just then, Cuiwei reported, "The Crown Prince's sedan chair has headed east."
She hurriedly broke free from Liu Yu's hand, and as she parted the curtain, Liu Yu's long, strong arms encircled her and pulled her into his embrace.
She dared not turn her head to look, only feeling waves of hot breath near her ear, followed by Liu Yu's soft voice: "Young Master Mu has volunteered to fight against the Japanese pirates. The Emperor will surely take care of the Mu family. If things really come to a desperate situation, Yu Yu can offer..."
"Take out what?"
Liu Yu smiled wryly. In fact, he had secretly handed the imperial sword to Cuiwei and instructed her not to tell Shenyu in advance. Faced with Shenyu's questioning, he had no choice but to change his words and say, "Show the majesty of the matriarch."
After saying that, he let go of her hand.
Chen Yu hurriedly got off the carriage.

Liu Yu lifted the curtain and saw that Chen Yu was leading Cui Wei eastward. He quickly jumped off the carriage and chased after them to stop them.
