Chapter 67: The Rogue Prince
Emperor Rongcheng's face turned cold as soon as he heard the news.
Now, hearing the arguments in the court, his expression became even uglier.
But he remained silent and didn't say a word.
"Someone come!"
Finally, Emperor Rongcheng shouted loudly.
In an instant, the entire court fell silent.
"Go and tell the prince."
******
Yong'an Marquis Mansion.
Because of this "farce" at night, Gu Jingchun naturally... woke up late.
She sat in front of the bronze mirror, drawing her eyebrows, and casually asked Lan Xin, "Xi'er hasn't woken up yet?"
Lan Xin was dressing Gu Jingchun and shook her head when she heard this.
"not yet."
"Xiao Man said that the room was very quiet. She was worried that the young master didn't sleep well last night, so she didn't call him."
Gu Jingchun nodded when he heard this, and asked another question seemingly casually.
"When did he leave last night?"
"This...I don't know."
Lan Xin was a little frightened.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a skilled martial artist, appearing and disappearing without a trace. If it weren't for the traps in the courtyard last night, Xiaoman wouldn't have been able to find him."
Gu Jingchun also knew Chen Hechuan's abilities, and seeing Lan Xin's nervous look, he stopped asking.
She looked up at the sky.
"It's getting late. It's time to wake Xier up for breakfast. Let's go and take a look ourselves."
Lan Xin paused when she heard this, as if she wanted to say something but stopped herself. However, Gu Jingchun did not notice her abnormality and stood up directly.
As soon as I went out, I met Xiaoman's angry face.
"What's wrong?"
"Who made you angry again?"
Gu Jingchun joked.
Xiaoman was very angry.
"I just went out to buy groceries, and the maid at the gate said that the people in the Marquis' Mansion don't plan to let you participate in this year's spring hunt."
"Not only that, they are also planning to give your place to that distant cousin."
Gu Jingchun didn't feel much when he heard this.
It was just a spring hunt, she didn't really want to go. It would be nice to lie at home for a while instead of going.
Besides, the time for her "departure" is getting closer, and she must plan more carefully to avoid disclosure.
Therefore, instead of getting angry, Gu Jingchun comforted Xiaoman.
Finally, he promised that he would not go and would not let that damn cousin go. Xiaoman felt much better after hearing this.
Seeing that Xiaoman was no longer angry, Gu Jingchun smiled and pushed open Gu Jinxi's door.
However, when she walked to Gu Jinxi's bed, the smile on her face suddenly stopped.
Because, at this moment, Chen Hechuan was lying leisurely beside Gu Jinxi.
When he saw Gu Jingchun coming, he waved to her proudly.
Gu Jingchun: ...
Why hasn't this guy left yet!
"Why haven't you left yet?"
Hearing this, Shen Hechuan's good mood instantly disappeared by half.
"You really want me to leave?"
He felt a little aggrieved, because he was so happy when he first saw her.
And now, Gu Jingchun didn't even look at him and accused him of not leaving.
This hurt Shen Hechuan a lot.
However, Gu Jingchun didn't care about his expression at all and continued:
"Don't you even look at the time? It's broad daylight now, and there are people coming and going outside. How are you going to leave?"
"If anyone were to discover that a man had left my courtyard, I wouldn't be able to explain myself even if I had eight mouths."
Hearing this, Shen Hechuan became even more dissatisfied and simply started to act like a spoiled brat.
"In that case, I won't leave."
Upon hearing this, Gu Jingchun frowned even deeper.
She didn't expect that Shen Hechuan, a prince, would actually act like a rogue.
"How can you not leave?"
"Even if you don't care about your own reputation, at least consider mine."
"Fame, fame, that's all you talk about."
"I came here last night, and I didn't hear you mention reputation. I think you just want to get rid of me and find an excuse!"
Gu Jingchun suddenly felt a little tired.
“How can this be the same?
It's daytime now, what if someone breaks in?"
As soon as Gu Jingchun finished speaking, his wrist was grabbed by Shen Hechuan, and then he dragged him onto the bed.
Gu Jingchun was caught off guard. Seeing his body falling, he was afraid of crushing Gu Jinxi who was still sleeping, so he quickly fell towards Chen Hechuan.
It was natural that she was hugged tightly by Shen Hechuan.
Holding the soft person in his arms, Shen Hechuan felt much better, and comforted her:
"Okay, okay, with all the traps you've set up in this yard, who can break in without your permission?"
"Don't worry, I'll stay here with you today. No one will find me. I'll leave secretly after dark. How about that?"
Gu Jingchun looked at Shen Hechuan's smug face and knew that this guy did it on purpose, but there was nothing he could do now so he could only agree to it first.
She couldn't help but snort coldly and wanted to get up, but her waist was held tightly by Shen Hechuan, and she couldn't move at all.
She looked up and glared at him.
"Let go."
"I don't!"
"Let go quickly."
Shen Hechuan played this rogue, “Why do you let me go, I will let go, I won’t let go.”
Gu Jingchun was so annoyed by Chen Hechuan's shameless behavior that he lost his temper and simply struggled to get up.
Chen Hechuan naturally refused to give in, and the two became more and more out of control as they struggled.
until……
Gu Jingchun felt the changes in someone's body and suddenly stopped moving, his face turning red in an instant.
"you……"
Gu Jingchun's face flushed and he glared at him fiercely.
"You rascal, why don't you let go?"
However, when Shen Hechuan saw her eyes, they were full of wandering thoughts, which made him feel distracted.
But he still looked a little embarrassed and let go of her hand awkwardly.
Gu Jingchun also understood that this man at this moment should not be provoked, so he quickly stood up.
However, he didn't expect that his wrist could not hold on for a moment, and he slipped forward, and his body fell uncontrollably towards Chen Hechuan again.
And her face hit Chen Hechuan's lower abdomen right on target.
"Um……"
Chen Hechuan groaned and subconsciously raised his hands, just about to touch Gu Jinxi beside him.
Suddenly, Gu Jinxi moved, rubbed his eyes, and was about to wake up.
At the critical moment, Chen Hechuan directly lifted the quilt next to him and wrapped Gu Jingchun tightly in it.
Gu Jingchun: ...
She really wanted to curse.
At this time, Gu Jinxi slowly opened his eyes.
He looked at Shen Hechuan and smiled sweetly.
"Uncle, it's great that you are still here."
"Did you sleep well?"
Chen Hechuan smiled, but his hand under the quilt pressed Gu Jingchun, who was trying to struggle, onto his lower abdomen again.
"good."
Gu Jinxi nodded.
"My mother used to leave after I fell asleep when she coaxed me to sleep. Every day when I woke up, I couldn't see her, so I always felt lost for a while. I didn't expect to see my uncle again today."
Gu Jingchun, who was lying under the quilt, paused when he heard this.
