"Princess, you've been waiting for a long time!" Leng Yichen came towards her with a frivolous laugh, and the princess stared at him in amazement.

"Leng!" Nan Han cried out, stood up, and looked at Leng Yichen with eyes full of obsession, "You clearly knew that I had been back to the palace for a few days, why didn't you come to see me?"

Leng Yichen said nothing, but smiled like a devil, his eyes narrowed into an alluring slit, "Yichen is afraid that the princess has already forgotten, and besides, the princess is a royal branch and jade leaf, and I, Leng Yichen, am just a proton..."

A touch of heart-warming melancholy burst out from those charming peach blossom eyes, making everyone who saw them feel heartbroken, let alone Princess Nanhan, who had been spoiled, cold, arrogant and noble since childhood!

Leng Yichen has been hanging around in brothels for the past five years, and has learned nothing else but countless tricks to coax women. How could the simple and arrogant Princess Nanhan be his match?

"Leng, what nonsense are you talking about? Although I went to the Royal Temple to pray for the Queen Mother, you were all I thought about day and night. I was afraid that the Bodhisattva would think that I was not sincere in my worship, so I hurried back!"

Nan Han spoke in a coquettish tone, her eyes full of shyness as she looked at Leng Yichen.

Leng Yichen pushed her hand away calmly, his eyes full of resentment and enchantment, making people unable to look away from his eyes, "Princess, what's the point of saying this? Everyone knows that Prince A Luo will arrive in Nanyue tomorrow, and the marriage between Prince A Luo and the princess has already been discussed by the two countries..."

Suddenly, a white and tender little hand gently blocked the man's lips, as if unwilling to let him continue speaking.

"I ignored the obstruction of my mother and my brother, and secretly ran here, waiting for you for a whole morning, just to tell you one thing. I, Nanhan, will never marry anyone except you, Leng Yichen, in this life!"

Leng Yichen's eyes darkened, as if he was moved, but in the end he glanced away silently, "Princess, why are you doing this? Everyone in Nanyue City knows that I, Leng Yichen, am a playboy. Princess, you are doing this..."

"I don't care what they say. I know that this is just your appearance. What I value is your heart!" Nan Han lowered her eyes and tightly grasped his sleeve. "Wait for me. Wait for me to find a chance to tell my brother!"

Leng Yichen slowly closed his eyes, his long and thick eyelashes hiding the unruly and tenderness in his eyes.

Nan Han didn't say anything else. It was already too late and she had to go back before being discovered by her mother.

"Wait for me!" The murmured words escaped from the woman's red lips, and a handkerchief was stuffed into the man's arms.

After a long time, the secret guard stepped out from the side room, "Prince, she's gone!"

He slowly opened his eyes, and a chilling and piercing light spread faintly from his clear, tea-colored eyes. The man took off the handkerchief and clothes and handed them to the secret guard, "Burn it for me!"

The secret guard was stunned, took it and retreated.

Nanhan, ah Nanhan, I want to betray Nanyue with all my heart, so how could I fall in love with you? Leng Yichen snorted coldly, and the coldness in his eyes became even colder.

Yue Nanxuan had been lying in bed for three days, and Prince Changning had also been locked up for three days. During these three days, the Queen Mother came to check on Yue Nanxuan's injuries every day, and seemed to have something to say, but every time the words were on her lips, she was blocked by Yue Nanxuan's sudden attack.

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is here!" The young eunuch trotted in to report.

Yue Nanxuan, who was painting a picture of a beauty with five wolf-hair pens in his hand and a brush in his mouth, threw away the brush, quickly took off his shoes and socks, and got on the bed. The young eunuch over there quickly and carefully put away the picture of the beauty.

Just covered the quilt

, I heard the eunuch's shrill voice, "The Queen Mother is here!"

Before the words were completely muted, the curtain was lifted and the Queen Mother walked in eagerly, "Xuan'er, are you feeling better?"

Yue Nanxuan blinked, and the eunuch immediately came forward to help him up, stuffed a pillow behind him, and leaned against the head of the bed, saying breathlessly, "Thank you mother for your concern, I'm much better!"

The Queen Mother frowned. "You call this much better? I don't even have the strength to speak. I'm not even as energetic as I was that day in the inn. Look, the imperial doctors in the palace are all quacks. Didn't they fail to cure the last time when the Princess of Prince Lu had a difficult delivery?

It was Lan Shuiyao who cured him! I never thought Chen'er was so cruel that he actually refused to let Lan Shuiyao enter the palace to treat the emperor. Forget it, I will just pretend that I never gave birth to this son! "

Seeing how excited she was, Yue Nanxuan immediately tried to smooth things over, "Mother, I am really much better now. I have hundreds of imperial doctors in the palace, are they not as good as Lan Shuiyao? It was I who did not allow Lan Shuiyao to enter the palace, please do not misunderstand my eighth brother!"

"Really?" The Queen Mother was immediately delighted when she heard this. "Is the Emperor really much better?"

Yue Nanxuan nodded, and for fear that she didn't believe him, he raised his arm. But in the end, he cried out that he felt dizzy and was laid on the bed.

The Queen Mother's joy vanished in an instant, and she could not even utter the words she wanted to plead for Prince Changning.

"Mother, do you have anything to tell me?" Touching his forehead with his hand, Yue Nanxuan pretended to be in pain and asked considerately.

Seeing her son being so considerate, the empress dowager found it even more difficult to speak. She sighed deeply and walked out.

"Mother, do you want to talk about the emperor's uncle?"

Xuan asked as he stood up with difficulty.

The Queen Mother was delighted and looked back. Before she could say anything, she was already in tears. "Xuan'er, I know that it was your uncle who was wrong this time, but he was deceived by the maid named Xiaoxi. He thought that something was wrong between Dong Qing'er and Chen'er, so he was so anxious. He didn't mean to hurt the emperor...

These days, my mother went to the dungeon to visit your uncle. He has lost a lot of weight. You know, the dungeon is cold and damp. Your uncle was injured while leading troops. His old illness has come back and he is in pain... My mother really can't bear it..."

Yue Nanxuan also sighed, "Mother, I know that although the emperor's uncle is older in generation, he grew up with us, mother, and you treat him like your own son.

But this time, the emperor's uncle really went too far. For the sake of a woman, he even pushed his son aside. It seems that the decision made by his father when he was alive was correct. The emperor's uncle is not a man who can achieve great things!

Mother, how about this, you let the emperor's uncle return to his suburbs, to his villa, this way you can give an explanation to my eighth brother and this son!"

The Queen Mother was stunned. She knew it would be difficult to keep Prince Changning. This was better than suffering in the prison.

"Then let's do as the emperor wishes!" The empress dowager wiped her tears, stood up, and let the palace maid support her as she walked out tremblingly. Looking at her back, she seemed to have aged a lot.

Yue Nanxuan sat up and sighed quietly. He knew that Prince Changning could not be kept, but he was his mother's favorite after all. So he would just restrict him from entering the city, and then send someone to monitor him until he got the definite evidence...

"Xiao Zhuozi, take my beauty

"People are coming, I want to continue!" Yue Nanxuan lifted the quilt and immediately became energetic and shouted loudly.

Xiao Zhuozi brought the painting of beauty and waited by, grinding ink and handing out pens. When the painting of beauty was finally finished, Yue Nanxuan looked at the painting and giggled from time to time.

"Your Majesty..." Xiao Zhuozi summoned up the courage to ask in a low voice, "Why is this beauty's face covered with a veil? Only a pair of eyes are visible..."

Yue Nanxuan glanced at him arrogantly, "What do you, a little eunuch, know? This is called "holding the lute half-covered". This is the style we want, half-covered, half-hidden, so that people can have endless reverie!"

Xiao Zhuozi nodded quickly and shrank his neck, but he complained in his heart, if her face is covered, who knows if it is an ugly girl or a beautiful girl, and it is called a beauty picture, I think it should be called a woman picture, no, no, what if it is not a woman?

It's hard to say with your face covered, maybe... Just as he was thinking about it, he was slapped hard on the head. Looking back, he saw the emperor staring at him with his big eyes, "Why are you daydreaming? Are you thinking about women too?"

Xiao Zhuozi suddenly felt so wronged that he just wanted to cry. A woman? It would be useless even if he thought about her in this life!

"Your Majesty, Prince Yongnan is here!" the eunuch chief came to report.

"Ah? Please come in, please come in!" Yue Nanxuan shouted. He had a lot of tenderness in his heart and had no place to vent it. It was good that Yue Nanchen came!

"Greetings, Third Brother!" Yue Nanchen walked in and saw the painting on the desk at a glance. The woman in the painting was wearing an intricate and beautiful red dress, with a delicate red rose with fresh water droplets on her temples, but her eyes were sharp and bloodthirsty.

"Royal brother, take a look at this painting of a beautiful woman I drew." Yue Nanxuan showed it off in front of him like a treasure. "She is the red rose. How about it? Pretty, right?"
