Birds on the edge of the abyss 46
After checking the situation, the two walked down the steps beside the city wall. They couldn't reveal that he was in the capital at the moment. If he showed up in public, it would not only arouse Prince Jing's suspicion, but also stir up the already turbid sewage in Kyoto.
Now everything is ready, only the east wind is missing. Once the fish enter the net, we can catch them all.
"Did my mother take action?" After returning to the remote suburban villa where he had just started, Chu Xin sat upright in the study and looked up at Le Luo in front of him.
Seeing Le Luo nod with a smile, Chu Xin rubbed his forehead and tiredly reminded him, "In the critical moment, you must protect your mother."
"Don't worry, Your Highness, I know what to do." Le Luo bowed and walked out.
Jian Can looked at Chu Xin's frowning face, walked up to him, patted his shoulder, and said with a smile, "What's wrong? Are you missing your little beauty?"
Chu Xin's face darkened, and he stepped aside to avoid his touch. He walked to the window, looked at the snowflakes falling outside, and said, "This winter is almost over."
"Don't worry, this civil war will end before winter is over, and then you can go and welcome your beauty back." Jian Can seemed to never be full, and he kept eating the cakes with both hands. He looked at Chu Xin's still worried face, wiped the crumbs from his lips, and said dissatisfiedly
"Didn't a letter arrive just this morning saying that the little beauty had woken up? Why are you always frowning? Shouldn't you be filled with joy that the little beauty has woken up?"
Chu Xin turned her head and glanced at the letter on the desk, feeling uneasy, she said, "That's not the case. I always have a feeling that something bad is going to happen."
He looked up at the sky, unable to suppress his eagerness to see Shen Luli. Chu Xin whispered, "Shen Changle..."

Meizhou Royal City
Shen Luli looked at the dagger in his palm, raised his eyes to look at the young man who was kneeling on the ground in front of him, and said, "You think I won't kill you, right?"
He had just woken up and his body had not yet recovered, but he was no longer in danger of death. He was just a little bit lacking in confidence when speaking, but he still tried his best to straighten his back, sitting upright and looking at Shen Changle. His eyebrows were sarcastic, and there was a sense of pride lingering in his chest.
"Zhongguang dare not, if brother wants Chongguang's life, Chongguang will definitely offer it with both hands." Shen Changle looked at Shen Luli's white feet exposed in the air and said hoarsely
Shen Luli suddenly threw the dagger out. The sharp dagger passed through the side of Shen Changle's ear, cut off a few strands of hair, brushed Shen Changle's ear and fell on the carpet behind with a dull sound. Shen Luli said unbearably, "Don't call me brother! You don't deserve it!"
He covered his chest and gasped violently, then suddenly lowered his head and coughed. The sound became louder and louder, more and more violent, as if he wanted to cough out his entire lung. Shen Changle felt a chill in his chest. He stood up hesitantly, looking at Shen Luli who was looking at him fiercely, and his heart was filled with sadness.
Then he picked up the dagger on the ground and handed it to Shen Luli again, saying, "Then Chongguang will call you Peizi. If you really want to kill me, then take this dagger and stab it into my chest now to kill me directly."
Looking at Shen Luli's trembling body, Shen Changle clenched his hand, let his cold hand grasp the dagger, pressed it against his chest, leaned over and whispered viciously in his ear, "If you don't kill me today, I will chase you to the ends of the earth in the future, and pester you until I die. You are... uh-huh" mine!
Unfortunately, before the second half of the sentence was finished, Shen Luli lowered his dark eyes, pushed hard, and with a "pop", the dagger pierced through his chest. Blood gushed out instantly, splashing all over Shen Luli's white clothes.
Shen Changle's eyes showed horror and disappointment, as if he had never expected that his brother who had loved him for many years would actually kill him. He stepped back, spitting blood from his mouth and suddenly knelt on the ground. He raised his head and looked up at Shen Luli who was still looking at him expressionlessly. The man was dressed in white and splattered with his blood. His pale face was indifferent.
Seeing his beautiful posture, Shen Changle's emotions not only did not subside but intensified. He suppressed his crazy emotions and eventually fell to the ground due to excessive blood loss.

"Crazy" Shen Luli wiped a drop of blood from his cheek and whispered
The smell of blood in the room became stronger and stronger, so strong that the palace maids guarding outside the room noticed something was wrong. She pushed the door open in confusion, wanting to see what was wrong. When she came to the inner hall, she was frightened by the scene in front of her and screamed.
A moment later, a large group of people rushed in and dragged Shen Changle out. The rest of the palace servants, under Feng Ze's instructions, changed Shen Luli's clothes. Seeing Shen Luli covered in blood, they couldn't help but tremble with fear, and their hands trembled involuntarily.
After finally helping Shen Luli change his clothes, Feng Ze waved his hand and asked them to leave. He looked at Shen Luli with a headache. No matter what he did from just now, he had a cold expression. He didn't know what to do.
Just when the two were at a stalemate, Bazhu walked in from outside. Without even looking at Fengze, he turned his head and came to Shen Luli, and whispered, "The master has ordered that we can leave the royal city today."
Shen Luli's eyes rolled, and then he moved his stiff and cold body, and said hoarsely, "Okay, when are we leaving?"
"Tonight at midnight"
"Well, please leave. I'm tired."
"yes"
After saying that, Shen Luli walked to the bed, opened the quilt and fell asleep. Feng Ze looked at his flowing scene, stunned, and then followed Bazhu out.
After the two of them left, Shen Luli struggled to sit up, took out the envelope from under the pillow, coughed a few times, and then calmed down and opened it.
This is a marriage proposal letter. The content is concise and clear. If Shen Luli is willing, Chu Xin will marry Shen Luli as her queen, with a betrothal gift of ten thousand dan. From then on, they will be together forever.
In addition, a jade hairpin fell out with the envelope. It was carved from crystal clear fine mutton-fat jade. Along with the hairpin was a note with the words "token of love" written in powerful large characters.
Shen Luli touched the hairpin, raised the corner of his lips and smiled slightly, and said slowly
"Doesn't this mean that I have no room for regrets at all?"
At night, Bazhu came in through the window, looked at Shen Luli who was sitting in front of the bronze mirror and slowly tying her hair, and whispered, "Let's go!"
Shen Luli touched the hairpin on his head, turned his head calmly and said "Okay"
After successfully arriving at Meizhou's villa, Lan Huan and Bu Nan came to greet them. They exchanged information about the past few days and then invited Shen Luli into the house.
As soon as he entered the door, Shen Luli saw the young man standing with his back to him, and was really stunned.
The man turned around, revealing a shallow dimple on his face, and smiled softly, "How are you, Mr. Shen?"
