Brother Huang, he has been planning for a long time

Chapter 178 Aborted

"Qingmu is in this room." Zhong Shui led Qing Shen to a courtyard and directly opened the door of a wing room.

"Aoki, the princess is here to see you." He said while leading Qing Chen in.

This was the first time she had stepped into the dormitory of the guards. It was simply decorated and cleaned very well.

There was a weak candle in the room, a bed, a table, a few stools, and a wardrobe, but there was no more furniture.

The man who was originally lying on the bed wanted to get up after hearing Zhong Shui's words.

Zhong Shui saw his behavior as soon as he entered the door and immediately stepped forward to help him up.

"Subordinate, please see the princess." He was about to get out of bed and salute.

Qingchen said hurriedly: "You are injured, don't get out of bed."

He had sometimes seen himself without saluting before, but this time he saluted even though he was injured.

"The princess is worried about your injury, so she came to see you." Zhong Shui helped him up and let him lean against the wall.

"Thank you for your concern, princess. This subordinate is fine." Aoki lowered his eyes and did not look at her.

Qingchen felt a little weak in her heart.

She was worried about his injury, but at the same time she was more worried that after he recovered, the emperor brother would ask him about what happened to her after she was captured by Ling Yu.

"Zhong Shui, I have something to say to him. Can you go out for a while?" Qing Chen turned his eyes to Zhong Shui who was standing beside the bed.

Zhong Shui was stunned for a moment and nodded quickly, "Okay, princess, please excuse me. I will leave first."

When Zhong Shui walked to the door of the room, he originally wanted to close the door, but then he thought, this wouldn't work.

It is not appropriate for the princess and Aoki to be alone in the same room.

So they walked away without closing the door.

Qingchen looked back at the open door and didn't pay much attention. Anyway, she said a few words and left.

She walked to the bed, but before she spoke, the man on the bed seemed to have guessed what she wanted to say. His face was still pale, and he subconsciously placed his hand on the wound, saying in a hoarse voice: "What are your orders, princess?" ?”

"I want... please, don't tell my brother about the child."

Qingmu was startled for a moment, then said: "This matter cannot be hidden from His Highness for long. If Ling Yu is arrested, Your Highness will also know about it."

"But didn't he run away now?" Qingchen raised a bitter smile, "It's useless to talk to the emperor about this matter, and the child can't come back. It will only make one more person suffer."

Aoki's eyelashes moved slightly, and he looked at the woman standing on the bed. After a long time, he nodded slightly and said, "I understand."

"That's it, thank you." Qingchen breathed a sigh of relief and looked at his slightly pale face, "You should rest more."

"Princess, you're welcome." Aoki calmed down, closed his eyes, and looked at the floor.

Qingchen originally wanted to turn around and leave, but then he remembered that Zhongshui had just said that he always got up to drink water by himself...

She just poured a glass of warm water and placed it beside his bed, "Drink more water."

After saying that, she turned around and walked out of his bedroom.

As that petite body left the bedroom, Aoki stared at the cup beside the bed for a long time.

After Qingchen left Qingmu's dormitory, she went back to look for Yue Qinghe, but Yue Qinghe was not in the dormitory, so she went to his study instead to look for him.

Zhong Shui told him: "Princess, Your Highness has gone to Mingqian Hall to find the emperor."

Qingchen heard the words and looked at the current time, it was already very late.

It was not suitable for her to continue to stay in the East Palace, so she said to Zhongshui: "Then I will go back to Mingyue Palace first. If my brother comes back and asks about you, tell him."

Zhong Shui nodded, "Okay, princess. I would like to send you off to the princess."

Qingchen also originally wanted to visit his father.

She was relieved to know that he had not fallen off his horse.

However, the Seventh Emperor brother committed suicide and apologized after his failed rebellion, which dealt him a lot of blows.

She wanted to see him when she returned to the palace, but her current complexion and the injuries on her hands would definitely arouse his suspicion.

Qingchen could only wait until he had tidied up early tomorrow morning before going to see his father.

Zhong Shui looked at Qing Chen's leaving figure, turned around and said to his master who was standing in the dark: "Your Highness, the princess has left."

Yue Qinghe calmed down and went to Qingmu's bedroom.

Aoki had guessed early on that as soon as the princess left, His Highness would come again.

So he did not lie down to rest, but sat by the bed. When he saw Yue Qinghe coming in, he stood up holding his breath and said, "Your Majesty, please see me."

"You are injured, please sit down first." Yue Qinghe looked coldly, staring at his handsome face. This was the first time that his master looked at his secret guard.

Although his face is pale now, with a few strands of hair hanging down in front of his forehead, looking a little sickly, he is quite pleasing to the eye.

If it weren't for Yue Qingchen's 'excessive' concern for him, he would never have paid so much attention to the people around him.

"Is there anything your Highness wants you to do?" Qingmu saw that he was staring at him for a long time without speaking. He lowered his eyes and asked in a hoarse voice.

"What did the princess just tell you?" After a long time, Yue Qinghe let out a cold voice.

Aoki's eyes moved slightly, although he had already guessed that His Highness would ask him this question.

But when he asked this question, he didn't know how to answer.

The secret guard's code told him that he could not disobey any of his master's orders or deceive him about anything.

You must obey all the master's orders, even if the master wants to die...

but……

When Aoki thought of the princess's delicate face, he hesitated.

I don’t know how to tell the master.

Yue Qinghe couldn't wait for him to speak, and his eyes became colder, "Can't you tell me?"

"Princess, she..." Aoki stood beside the bed, feeling numbness and pain from the wound on his chest. He lowered his face and finally said, "The princess told me not to say anything."

Yue Qinghe stepped forward and approached him, with a cold voice, "Qingmu, please figure out who is your master."

Aoki lowered his eyes. He didn't need to look at His Highness's expression to know that he was angry. He covered the wound on his chest, trying to relieve the pain, but it had no effect. He closed his eyes and sighed secretly. tone.

He still couldn't violate the secret guard code, not to mention those things, His Highness would know sooner or later, "The princess was pregnant, and Ling Yu forcibly drank and beat the child."

Hearing this, Yue Qinghe's feet bumped, and the floor under his feet seemed to be falling apart.

He frowned and steadied himself, his stern face full of disbelief.

He thought of many possibilities.

Considering Ling Yu's thoughts towards Qingchen, Qingchen was kidnapped by him for a few days.

He thought she had been given to Ling Yu...

He thought she would be afraid that he would dislike her, so he was afraid that he would know...

But she never thought that she was pregnant with her own child...

He was also forcibly dropped by Ling Yu.

Anger filled his chest, Yue Qinghe clenched his fists, with murderous intent in his eyes.

"The princess asked me not to tell His Highness because I don't want His Highness to be sad." Aoki knew that the princess wanted to bear this pain alone.

Aoki would say that in addition to not violating the secret guard code, he also didn't want the princess to bear all this alone.

In fact, part of the reason why this happened is because of His Highness.
