Tearing the Prince's Clothes after Withdrawing Marriage Chapter 1231 - 1230: Heartache
"Miss, please wait here for a mont, as I must go in to report first."
Just before reaching the secret chamber, Yang Xun still stopped Chu Qianli.
A thought crossed Chu Qianli’s mind: "Has Prince Xuan returned?"
Here, the Emperor was ill and it was uncertain whether he was still conscious.
Since Yang Xun needed to go report, it ant that there was soone else inside who could speak.
Yang Xun shook his head, did not answer, and quickly walked inside.
Chu Qianli felt a sense of urgency, took two steps forward, but was imdiately halted by the guards stationed at the passage.
Although the two guards appeared unremarkable, they carried a formidable presence, clearly among the elite in the royal guard.
She did not continue to force her way through but simply stopped and waited quietly.
It wasn’t long before the person inside ca out.
However, the individual who erged with Yang Xun was sowhat unexpected to Chu Qianli.
"Prince Jing?"
"Little girl, we et again." Chu Wang quickly approached her.
The last ti Chu Qianli visited Prince Jing’s Residence to cure his poisoning, he had been unconscious throughout, not awakening once to see her before she left.
This ti, after having t in Beiming, it was their first reunion.
Yet in the span of re months since their last encounter, the vitality and spirit of this girl seed to have changed several tis over.
More beautiful, but also colder.
"I bear you no ill will."
But this coldness indeed made one feel sowhat helpless.
At their last eting, she was not like this. Although she was calm and collected then, she possessed at least a touch of girlish playfulness.
At this mont, however, she appeared much more mature.
Without having weathered hardships, how could she be so?
"You’ve... been wronged again."
Had these words been spoken before today, Chu Qianli would surely have resisted and even kept her distance.
But now, she had learned the truth.
She now understood their relationship.
Her heart felt indescribably uncomfortable.
A kind of discomfort that others could not comprehend.
To Chu Wang’s surprise, he seed to see a shiny translucent luster in her bright eyes.
Were those tears?
He was taken aback.
Wanting to see more clearly, Chu Qianli had already lowered her head, softly saying, "In this life, who is free from suffering? You jest, Prince."
"Prince, I have heard about the Emperor... not feeling well. May I go and check his pulse? He was always under my care for his previous illnesses..."
"Follow ." No matter why that tear was shed, at the very least, the Loyal Brother now truly needed her.
Chu Qianli’s gaze locked onto his back.
This tall figure... once again stirred a surge of sorrow in her heart.
"Prince..." She couldn’t help but call out.
Chu Wang paused his steps, turned back to look at her: "What is it?"
"Nothing much, just wanted to remind you that the news of the Heaven and Earth Lock is still being spread. You yourself are not safe, Prince, try not to... wander about recklessly."
"Heh." Chu Wang couldn’t help but chuckle softly; this little girl was really interesting.
"You’re in more danger than I am, yet aren’t you still running around everywhere?"
Seeing that there was not a hint of a smile in her eyes, Chu Wang realized she was serious.
So, he beca serious too: "Don’t worry, I value my life. Unless necessary, I won’t go out."
Of course, if it really were necessary, it would be difficult to avoid.
After all, with the court amidst tumultuous turmoil, staying hidden and ignoring the affairs of the world might no longer be an option.
Chu Qianli said no more and followed him into the secret chamber.
Looking up, she saw a serene figure lying on the bed.
Upon seeing this, Chu Qianli’s heart violently trembled.
