It was not a big deal to go back to the city together on a snowy day, so Xiao Li naturally agreed.
However, she had just arrived and it was impossible for her to go back the next day. She would have to return to the city at least the day after tomorrow, which was the 29th day of the lunar year.
She couldn't possibly let them disrupt her plans. If they wanted to go the same way, they had to stay here until that day.
Song Junzhan readily agreed: "Then I'm sorry to bother you, Princess."
Cen An took a deep breath in his heart: No, brother, you...
After leaving the main house, Cen An couldn't wait to return to his residence. He dragged Song Junzhan to a secluded place and started questioning him, "Do you know what you are doing? That's Princess Xuanyang. Her affairs are spreading like wildfire. Why are you still going there?"
Song Junzhan knew he had misunderstood, and calmly explained: "Things are not what you think. I have a request for the princess."
Cen An: "Really?"
Song Junzhan: "Why should I lie to you?"
Cen An was skeptical: "You'd better tell the truth."
For the sake of his brother, Cen An decided not to hide the truth anymore and must reveal the princess's terrifying true face to his brother.
Cen An pulled Song Junzhan back to his residence, ready to pour out all the bitterness in his heart.
I was walking too fast and didn't pay attention, so I bumped into someone.
The man was knocked to the ground by him without saying a word, which scared him a lot.
"Are you okay? Are you hurt?"
The person who was bumped into by Cen An was a woman, wearing a veil. After being knocked down, she did not say a word, but just stood up silently, looked up at him, and then left.
"Alas, you..."
Watching the figure disappear around the corner, Cen An was suspicious: "This person feels familiar. Why do the people around the princess have their faces covered?"
If you can't figure it out, just stop thinking about it. It's more important to complain.
Before he finished his cup of tea, Cen An vomited out a lot of bitterness.
He felt humiliated at being imprisoned twice, at being threatened, and at being forced to treat patients and make medicine day and night.
He had clearly committed no crime, yet he was forced to experience what it was like to be in jail.
It's totally unfair and inhumane!
Of course, he never mentioned the reward Xiao Li gave him, mainly because he was afraid that his brothers would think that he had received the reward and would not feel the hatefulness of Princess Xuanyang.
However, even if he had deliberately blackened the princess, the impact on his brothers seemed minimal.
He spoke eloquently and emotionally, but Song Junzhan listened with a calm expression, unmoved.
"According to what you said, the princess only restricted your freedom, not abused you. Making medicine is a bit hard, but it can't be considered abuse."
"The princess probably has other reasons for keeping you here. She never meant to hurt you. Besides, you're still on her territory. I'm afraid these accusations and slanders have already reached the princess's ears."
Cen An: "..."
"Shouldn't you sympathize with me? Why are you still speaking for her?" Which side are you on?
But strangely enough, he was not afraid that what he said would reach the princess's ears. His intuition told him that the princess was too lazy to argue with him.
Thinking about it this way, the princess still has some good points. No, if he wants to think the princess is bad, he can't be bewitched.
Song Junzhan didn't say anything, and Cen An's words became boring.
"Don't take it lightly. I'm only telling you this because this princess is not a good person. If you try to provoke her, the consequences will be serious. And it's best if you only have something to ask of her. If you have other ideas, Lu Yanzhi is a lesson for you."
Song Junzhan sighed: "If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known I had such an idea, but now that I think about it carefully, it seems that it wouldn't be bad if I could win the princess's favor."
Cen An felt his neck was instantly stuck and he almost couldn't breathe.
He was warning Song Junzhan and trying to persuade him to quit, not to make him reflect on his inner feelings!!!
"Shut up, you're pissing me off!"
Cen An didn't want to pay any attention to him anymore. He got so angry that he stood up and went out to cool his brain in the snow breeze.
Suddenly, he saw a group of guards rushing over. He grabbed the servant next to him and asked, "What happened?"
The man replied, "The princess's pet is missing, and everyone is searching for it."
"What little pet?"
The servant shook his head: "I don't know either."
Cen An thought that pets were just cats and dogs, so he turned back and saw a slender figure in his room. He was a little surprised: "How did you get in? What are you doing in my room?"
The veiled woman looked at Cen An with pleading eyes: "Please save me."
The woman was Xuezhi. She curled up in fear and hugged herself, with fear and innocence in her eyes like a deer.
"Sir, don't tell them I'm here. She'll kill me."
"Ah?" Cen An was confused. "Aren't you the princess's man? Who would dare to kill you?"
When Xuezhi heard the word "princess", her body trembled unconsciously and she looked extremely fragile and pitiful.
“Knock knock.”
Someone knocked on the door: "Doctor Cen, we are looking for the princess's pet and are ready to come in now."
Before Cen An could refuse, the door was pushed open. His eyes blurred and the masked woman hid directly behind his bed curtain.
Cen An: “…” Doesn’t anyone care about his feelings?
Two guards came in, scanned his simple and empty room, and tried to search his wardrobe.
Cen An was speechless: "I didn't see any small animals coming in."
The guard shook his head: "It's a small pet, not an animal."
Cen An: “?” Is there any difference?
"Ah! Let me go!"
