Changliu handed the imperial edict in and closed the curtain tightly, covering it up tightly.
The eldest son of his family seemed to be angry, and he was afraid of letting out his anger.
Changliu waited for a moment, then heard a "dong" sound in the carriage and couldn't help but shrink his neck.
Xie Tingzhou asked coldly: "Did you accept the order?"
Shen Yu stood up and picked up the imperial edict that Xie Tingzhou had thrown into a corner.
"Can I still resist the decree?"
Xie Tingzhou tensed his jaw.
He expected that Emperor Tongxu would promote Shen Yu, but he never expected that she would be in such a position.
Why did Emperor Tongxu summon her into the palace and put her in front of him?
Could it be...
An idea flashed through my mind.
Could it be that Emperor Tongxu already knew about the relationship between the two and was using Shen Yu to contain him?
Xie Tingzhou felt warmth on the back of his hand, and lowered his eyes to see her hand covering the back of his hand.
"It will be okay." Shen Yu comforted him, "Even Emperor Tongxu is not afraid of luring wolves into his house. I have nothing to be afraid of. Besides, I am also good at being in front of the emperor. Many things cannot escape my eyes."
Xie Tingzhou's brows knitted together slightly, he held her hand with his backhand and rubbed his thumb on the back of it a few times.
He knew that what she said made sense. Before leaving Beijing, he said he would let her fly, but he still felt uneasy once he encountered an unknown situation.
"The palace is much more dangerous than outside. One wrong step could lead to death."
"Didn't you protect me? They didn't dare." Shen Yu said lightly.
Xie Tingzhou looked at her face and said, "If you were Beilin's Crown Princess, they would be even more afraid."
Today, Beilin Wangfu is very happy.
Uncle Zhong, Lu Yao and others had been waiting at the door early. A banquet was held in the mansion, waiting to welcome Shen Yu after her triumphant return.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived, he was dragged to Qingpu Residence by Xie Tingzhou.
"Everyone, please take your seats." Uncle Zhong greeted everyone.
Seeing their sleeves entangled together, they were so happy that they couldn't help but ask the kitchen to bring dinner to the room. They almost said it was sent to the bridal chamber.
"I brought them gifts." Shen Yu followed Xie Tingzhou into the room.
Xie Tingzhou closed the door with his backhand, looked down at her and asked, "Where's mine?"
Shen Yu pursed her lips and smiled, "Let Xiao Chuan send it over tomorrow."
"dislike."
Shen Yu raised her eyes, "You didn't even see what I gave you, and you said you don't like it."
Xie Tingzhou held the door open, circled her in front of him, and stared at her without blinking, "You have brought it back for me what I like."
He stretched out his hand to touch her face and whispered, "I just lost some weight."
Qingpuju became quiet, and even the guards didn't know where they were hiding.
There was the sound of saliva exchanging in the room like spring silkworms eating mulberry.
Xie Tingzhou kissed her and took away her chance to breathe. A fire seemed to be lit in his chest.
After fifty-one days of separation, he missed the person in his arms so much.
Suddenly, her wrist felt cold, as if something had been put on it. As soon as Shen Yu raised her hand, Xie Tingzhou grabbed it, and her fingers were intertwined.
He stepped away slightly and whispered against her forehead: "Marry me, Ayu."
Shen Yu's heart seemed to be burned with these five words. She saw the earnestness in his eyes and the suppressed fire in his misty eyes.
Xie Tingzhou stared at Shen Yu and asked, "Marry or not?"
"Your tone of voice doesn't sound like you're proposing for marriage. It's like you're forcing a marriage." Shen Yu curled her lower lip.
Xie Tingzhou's nose was close to her, "Then let's call it a forced marriage. If you don't want to marry, you have to marry."
The tip of his nose tilted slightly, and he tilted his head to take her lips.
Shen Yu's whole body was hot, and she felt like a strong wind passing by. She was pressed by him and fell backwards, and all the strength in her body was drained away by him.
She hurriedly stretched out her hand to cling to the edge of the window, and the window was silently pushed open a little by her fingers, but no one noticed.
On the eaves, Chang Liu stretched his neck, but still couldn't hear what was going on below, so he simply hung upside down from the eaves. Xi Feng raised his feet and finally resisted the idea of kicking him.
As soon as Changliu turned his head to look over, his body froze and he looked directly at the person in the window.
Xie Tingzhou suddenly raised his eyes and looked over with sharp eyes like arrows.
He held the back of Shen Yu's head with one hand and pressed it into his arms. Shen Yu was buried in his arms, blushing and not daring to move.
Xi Feng only saw Chang Liu's legs loosen up, and he fell down like a green onion. He quickly got up and stood up, not daring to move.
Changliu saw His Highness the Crown Prince's hand leaning against the window edge. The veins on the back of his hand were bulging, as if he would draw his sword and kill him here in the next moment.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty." Chang Liu touched the little turtle on his chest and said fearfully: "I, I fell from above. I didn't mean to do it."
Xie Tingzhou's sharp gaze swept around the courtyard, "Everyone, get out!"
There was a slight sound of footsteps on the eaves, and the treetops moved slightly.
The secret guards originally came and went silently, but they deliberately made noise to indicate that they had withdrawn.
Changliu's legs were weak due to His Highness's gaze just now. He was the best in Qinggong in the entire palace, but now he couldn't even move.
Xi Feng fell from the eaves, picked up Chang Liu, nodded to the prince, and walked out of the yard.
Changliu hung on Xifeng's shoulder and said aggrievedly: "You don't even give me a hand! I will never be the best in the world with you."
"You don't care about eavesdropping, but you still dare to listen indifferently. That's the kind of treatment only Bai Yu can get."
Changliu thought about it and saw His Highness the Crown Prince's expression backwards, and felt frightened, "The Crown Prince is so scary."
Xi Feng put him down and patted his head, "You have to remember that the master is the master. Your Highness usually treats us generously, but there are some things that you can't touch?"
"What is His Highness's reverse scale?"
Xifeng: "I didn't know before, but now...it should be Shigure."
Xie Tingzhou let go of Shen Yu, looked down at her, and touched his sleeves. The window was completely opened, and the courtyard was already empty.
The night wind was not cool at first, and Xie Tingzhou had nowhere to vent his anger. He turned to the table and poured a cup of cold tea.
"You scared Chang Liu." Shen Yu said.
The tea cup stopped at his lips, "He disturbed us." Xie Tingzhou finished drinking tea.
Shen Yu's face was still a little red. She lowered her head and saw the bracelet on her wrist before remembering that Xie Tingzhou had just put it on her.
She raised her hand and asked, "What is this?"
Xie Tingzhou walked towards her, hugged her from behind, held her hand and raised it.
"This is something my mother left behind."
Shen Yu wanted to turn her head to look at him, but Xie Tingzhou's chin pressed against her temples, "You want to say that the beauty is bad, right?"
Shen Yu looked at the bracelet on her wrist. This was something she had never touched since she was born. You can see it everywhere on the street. One tael of silver can buy ten of these bracelets.
Such a poor bracelet should not have belonged to Princess Beilin.
Xie Tingzhou half-closed his eyes, darkness gradually emerged from his eyes, "I was not born to Princess Beilin, she...she wished to let me die."
