Chapter 152
Chu Heng returned to the Eastern Palace, and Yu Xi told Chu Heng about Lin Qingwan meeting a man from Prince Ning’s Mansion today.
After hearing this, Chu Heng asked her to go out and said nothing else.
Yu Xi felt that Chu Heng's reaction was a bit abnormal. If Chu Heng had heard of this kind of thing before, at least he should have asked the result, but now he let her go out without saying anything.
What bothers Chu Heng the most now is Chu Huan’s affairs. As for Lin Qingwan’s affairs, he is not very anxious.
Chu Huan walked into the East Palace and walked directly to the Shuanglan Palace. The palace ladies in the East Palace avoided Chu Huan's departure, fearing that they would be noticed.
But Chu Huan's purpose is the Shuanglan Palace, so Liuli naturally cannot avoid Chu Huan. If Lin Qingwan wants to be quiet, she cannot let Chu Huan enter the Shuanglan Palace.
"So I will meet the fifth princess."
Chu Huan ignored it and put one of her hands on the door of the Shuanglan Palace, but before she could push it, she was stopped by Liuli.
Chu Huan was just now looking at Liuli. She came to the East Palace so many times, but she had never seen this maid before. "Does the new maid from the East Palace be so ignorant of the rules now? Even this princess dare to stop me?"
"Your Highness, the concubine, now no one wants to see you."
Only then did Chu Huan realize that this maid should be Lin Qingwan's person, but since she had arrived in front of the Shuanglan Palace, there was no reason why she could not enter.
Chu Huan insisted on entering, but Liuli kept stopping him, and the two of them were in a stalemate outside the Shuanglan Palace.
Chu Huan had no choice but to use his internal force to push Liuli aside. Liuli didn't expect that Chu Huan was also a person who knew some kung fu. She was pushed away by Chu Huan without any precaution.
Chu Huan pushed open the door of Shuanglan Palace and walked in. When Lin Qingwan heard someone coming in, he got up and looked at the person coming.
Liuli followed Chu Huan into the Shuanglan Palace, "Empress, Liuli did not stop the fifth princess."
"It's okay", in fact, Lin Qingwan was also very curious. How could Liuli not stop Chu Huan?
"Fourth Sister-in-law."
Lin Qingwan and Chu Huan were not familiar with each other. They had only met several times back then. The only thing I remember was that Chu Huan helped her get rid of the siege at the palace banquet.
"I wonder why the fifth princess came to this Frost Lan Palace?"
"I am here to find the fourth brother, but I didn't expect that the fourth brother was not here."
What Chu Huan said was half true and half false. She might have come to the East Palace to find Chu Heng, but her first reaction shouldn't be to go to the study room to look for her? Why did she come to her Frost Lan Palace?
"Your Highness the Crown Prince is not here."
Yu Ran walked in and saw Chu Huan and Lin Qingwan standing face to face in the room. She felt that the atmosphere between them was a little different.
"Fifth Princess, Your Highness the Crown Prince is in the study, I will take you there now."
Chu Huan came this time not to make things difficult for Lin Qingwan. She knew Chu Heng’s feelings for Lin Qingwan. She was not happy to Lin Qingwan.
She just wanted to see what changes Lin Qingwan had with that time, and whether she is worthy of Chu Heng's treatment so sincerely.
Chu Huan followed Yu Ran to leave the Shuanglan Palace. Yu Ran still knew Chu Huan better than others.
"Your Highness Princess, the Crown Prince is the same as before, so we should not let Your Highness make things difficult for you."
Chu Huan knew that Yuran was reminding her and told her the answer she wanted to know. Since Chu Heng was still like that, they could only help him guard Lin Qingwan.
Chu Huan walked into the study and saw Chu Heng's frowning at first sight. It seemed that what happened to her this time was really difficult to deal with.
"Huan'er has met the fourth brother."
"Why is Huan'er coming?" Chu Heng raised his head when he heard Chu Huan's voice, and hurried over.
Chu Huan looked at Yu Ran beside him, and Yu Ran immediately left the study tactfully.
"Huan'er is here to ask the fourth brother what happened, why are the mother and the fourth brother so worried?"
Only in front of Chu Heng can Chu Huan be the most real person he looks.
Chu Heng didn't know how to tell Chu Huan. Chu Huan had already come to ask him, which means she already knew that the matter had something to do with her.
With Chu Huan's character, if Chu Heng told her about the matter, she would definitely choose to sacrifice herself, but Chu Heng didn't want her to do so.
"Even if the fourth brother doesn't tell Huan'er now, Huan'er will know sooner or later."
Chu Heng had no choice but to tell Chu Huan what happened today. He didn't say that the princess she was in the marriage, and she could know that this person must be her, and Chu Huan's reaction was indeed as Chu Heng expected.
"Fourth brother, this future monarch of Nanchu must be you, and Huan'er will never let herself be your obstacle."
Some things are always surprisingly similar. Chu Heng could not keep Chu Yan back then, but now he could not keep Chu Huan.
Chu Heng was not yet full of strength and could only plead with his father. Now Chu Heng is indeed capable of competing with his father, but if he does this, his strength will be exposed. His father is already afraid of him. If he really exposes all his strength, everything he has worked hard for over the years will be ruined.
"My third sister can marry to Xiqin and be on par with the prince of Xiqin, and Huan'er can do it."
Although Chu Huan said that, only she herself knew that she might not be able to do like Chu Yan. There was someone in her heart, and that person was the person she could not have the least ideas.
Chu Huan left after saying that. Chu Heng looked at Chu Huan's departure back. Huan'er was wearing her own mask and lived in this palace. Only in front of her did she show her truest appearance. She often said that she was waiting for someone she could trust to appear, but now she no longer had time to wait for that person.
Huan'er, who was clear-minded, eventually became a victim of Nan Chu. Can the people born in the royal family really not escape their own destiny?
In fact, Chu Huan's marriage to Beixiao will benefit Chu Heng from seizing the throne without any harm. Chu Huan is very smart, and she will also hide her intelligence. Chu Heng has always suspected that there were people in the Southern Chu court who colluded with Beixiao. If Chu Huan married to Beixiao, she would just help him collect evidence.
Lin Qingwan asked Liuli why she couldn't stop Chu Huan after Chu Huan left, and Liuli's answer also shocked her.
Chu Huan, a princess, knows martial arts skills, which Lin Qingwan didn't expect. She suddenly remembered what Chu Heng said to her back then. He said that Huan'er was, and she still needs to understand slowly in the future.
So now it seems that Chu Huan is not as coquettish as the legendary ones. Those may be just her mask.
Chu Huan is not a simple person who can hide his true face so well in the deep palace.
Lin Qingwan now wants to know whether the queen knows whether her daughter is actually completely different from what she knows.
Not long after Beixiao proposed marriage, the incident of the marriage was spread to Changle Palace. Shen Luoyu had already made plans for Chu Wei's marriage, and she would never let Chu Wei marry Beixiao.
"Go and call Awei here."
Chen Luoyu knew the emperor. Even if the emperor would marry Awei, he would not be willing to marry Awei, but sometimes he was afraid of accidents.
There are only two princesses who meet the conditions of Beixiao, one is Chu Huan and the other is Chu Wei. If the queen and the prince try their best to protect Chu Huan, then the emperor will only have two choices, one is to marry Chu Wei to Beixiao, and the other is to reject Beixiao's conditions and take back the terms proposed to Beixiao.
In the emperor's heart, can Chu Wei compare the benefits that Nan Chu can get? Chen Luoyu really has no confidence.
Chu Wei talked to Yun Zhiyuan today and was still very happy. Although Yun Zhiyuan had been thinking of her for a long time, she felt that this was also the beginning.
Madam Feng went to Chu Wei's bedroom to look for Chu Wei, but she didn't see anyone. Chu Wei's maid didn't know where Chu Wei went, so she could only wait outside Chu Wei's bedroom.
Chu Wei's figure appeared in Madam Feng's sight. Madam Feng hurried over, "I have seen the Tenth Princess, and the Imperial Concubine asked the Tenth Princess to come over."
Chu Wei's first reaction was that she had done something wrong again, but she seemed to have done nothing recently. What did her mother ask her for?
Chu Wei followed Madam Feng to Changle Palace. She lowered her head and saluted Chen Luoyu, then secretly glanced at Chen Luoyu's expression.
Chen Luoyu's eyebrows were slightly lowered, with a slightly sad look, but Chu Wei didn't know why Chen Luoyu was worried.
"Awei, there is one thing my mother thinks she should tell you."
Chen Luoyu's tone made Chu Wei nervous, "What does the mother want to say?"
"Today your father went to court, and the envoy of Beixiao proposed to marry Nanchu in public and marry Nanchu Princess."
Tears passed through Chu Wei's face, and her voice trembled a little, "Isn't there...Fifth Sister..."
Chu Wei regretted after asking this sentence. How could it be the fifth sister? The fifth sister is the legitimate daughter, with a noble status, and with the fifth sister's temperament, if the father forcibly married her to Beixiao, she might have died to show her to her father before the order was issued.
Chu Wei knelt beside Chen Luoyu and buried his face on Shen Luoyu's legs.
If she hadn't met Yun Zhiyuan, she might not have been so sad, but she just felt that she had a little chance with him, but the news made her completely desperate.
"The Emperor arrived-"
Chen Luoyu didn't expect that the emperor would be so coincidental. Chu Wei heard the voice of the palace maid and quickly stood up and wiped the tears from her face, but her eyes were still red.
The emperor walked in and saw Chu Wei with red eyes. There was a faint sadness between Chen Luoyu's eyebrows and eyes.
"What's wrong?"
"Your Majesty, A Yu already knows what happened in the court today. If your Majesty is really hard to choose, then marry A Wei to Beixiao."
Chen Luoyu said while rubbing the corner of her eyes with a handkerchief. She wanted to make a choice for the emperor before the emperor made a choice. Only in this way can Awei have the chance to stay.
The emperor thought something had happened, but it turned out that it was because Bei Xiao proposed to marry Princess Nanchu today.
The emperor sat on the stool and waved to Chu Wei, "A Wei, come here."
