Chapter 9
Night, East Palace.

"Concubine Dong, what's wrong?"

Seeing Gu Ruoyun in front of the window of the inner hall who sometimes used thick needles to prick the silk cloth randomly, and sometimes was in a daze, a court lady who came to deliver meals asked in a strange voice.

The maid standing at the door shook her head lightly, and said in a low voice, "I don't know, since she came back from Bieyuan, Concubine Dong's condition has been not quite right."

"Oh, maybe there was an awkward quarrel with His Royal Highness..."

At this time, the maid on the other side of the door stared at the two whispering, and gave a warning.

"Concubine Dong dares to chew on the back of her tongue, don't want to live anymore?!"

The two maids stuck out their tongues and dared not speak any more.

A quarter of an hour later, Xia Chang walked into the hall reeking of alcohol.

"Your Highness~"

All the maids hurriedly saluted, but Xia Chang roared with red eyes.

"Get out! Get out of the palace!"

The maids were startled, but they didn't dare to ask any questions, they all walked out of the hall quickly with their heads down and without daring to breathe.

In the inner hall, Gu Ruoyun, who was in a daze, was also startled, and covered the rags on the table with the red juan, and stood up to meet Xia Chang with a confused expression.

"What's wrong with the prince? Why do you drink so much wine?"

While talking, Gu Ruoyun poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to Xia Chang.

"Have a cup of hot tea first."

However, Xia Chang knocked over the teacup with a wave of his arm.

"Drink tea? I want to drink blood!"

Gu Ruoyun trembled in fright, looking at Xia Chang whose eyes were red and staring at her firmly, she suddenly felt uneasy.

Could it be that someone found out that Xia Ao molested her?
Feeling guilty, Gu Ruoyun's eyes dodged a little.

"Prince, please calm down first. What's going on? Did you hear some gossip again?"

Xia Chang suddenly stretched out his hands, and his thick palms firmly grasped Gu Ruoyun's slender arms, causing Gu Ruoyun's heartbeat to speed up in addition to the pain.

"Didn't you say that Xia Ao has already agreed? Didn't you say that he already nodded clearly? Huh?!"

Gu Ruoyun was taken aback for a moment, and then felt relieved.

She thought...

"But why, instead of flattering me, why did he become more arrogant and domineering than before, and insulted me in front of so many people? Huh?!"

Shaking Gu Ruoyun vigorously, Xia Chang hissed and roared, wanting to eat people.

"Do you know that the prince of this palace has become a joke in the entire imperial capital? Ah!"

Gu Ruoyun had already calmed down at this time, and after gritting her teeth, she violently shook Xia Chang's hands away.

"Prince! Calm down! Xia Ao has indeed agreed, he is also a dignified prince after all, how could he go back on his word so easily?"

"Could it be that there is something hidden in it? Prince, what is going on, can you explain clearly first?"

Xia Chang calmed down a bit, but he was still a little irritable.

It was only after turning around and smashing several utensils one after another that he barely calmed down.

"Okay, since you want to hear it, then I will tell you!"

Immediately, Xia Chang told the whole story.

After listening, Gu Ruoyun also froze on the spot.

"It shouldn't be, how could Xia Ao do this? If he really regretted it and didn't want to stand with you, the prince, then he should also stand with the fifth and third sons. How could he offend everyone? "

"This old sixth, did he suddenly become insane?"

Gu Ruoyun murmured, gnashing her teeth in anger.

That bastard took so much advantage of her, and in the end he still wanted to wipe his mouth clean and refuse to admit it? !

"It's crazy, I think he's still crazy!"

Xia Chang sneered again and again, and murderous intent suddenly appeared in his eyes.

"Damn Xia Ao, you dare to scold Ben Gong and let Ben Gong's majesty be demolished, you are courting death!"

Gu Ruoyun was startled, and hurriedly pulled Xia Chang inside.

"Prince, you are crazy! How dare you say such words!"

While Gu Ruoyun cautiously glanced at the outer hall, she glared at Xia Chang hatefully.

"You are the dignified prince, the heir apparent of Daxia, and you will be born not long after Daxia..."

"He Xia Ao can be crazy, Xia Kui can be crazy, Xia Feng can also be crazy, but you are the only one who can't be crazy!"

"Not to mention whether it can be successful, even if it is successful, do you know how terrifying the turmoil and consequences it will cause?"

"Once the slightest trace is discovered, that seat will be completely insulated from you!"

"Not to mention, Xia Ao is behind them, and behind them is an army of more than [-]% of my Great Xia! If they start a ruthless attack, who knows what will happen!"

"Even if they don't have the slightest evidence, as long as they suspect you, they will definitely fall into the arms of the third and fifth brothers. Then, how can you fight?"

After being lectured by Gu Ruoyun, Xia Chang finally calmed down.

He also knew that he was dazzled by anger just now, so he came up with a very dangerous idea.

But even after calming down, he still felt extremely angry and aggrieved.

He is a dignified prince, yet he was ruthlessly despised by Xia Ao in front of so many rich and powerful children, with a hot face on the cold ass of a boss, how could he swallow this tone?
Of course, the most important thing is that Xia Ao's repentance caused him to miss an extremely important help, which may severely challenge his position as the crown prince!

"Then what do you say? Is it possible to swallow your anger like this?"

Xia Chang snorted coldly with a gloomy face, his eyes were full of resentment and unwillingness.

Gu Ruoyun thought for a while, then gritted her teeth and said, "The concubine will look for him tomorrow, and I must let him give an explanation!"

"If he really reneged on his promises and got fat and turned back on his promises, then the crown prince doesn't have to be polite to him. Although he can't be killed, it's okay to use other methods to punish him and the people behind him!"

Xia Chang pondered for a while, and after much deliberation, there was no other better way, so he could only nod in the end.

"Okay, then it's settled like this, Concubine Dong will make another trip tomorrow."

After saying that, Xia Chang shook his head and smiled apologetically at Gu Ruoyun.

"Concubine Dong, I'm sorry, I drank too much, I was a little confused just now, I scared Concubine Dong..."

As he said that, Xia Chang wanted to hug and comfort him.

Gu Ruoyun took a step back to get out of the way, her eyes flickering.

"The prince doesn't need to apologize, the concubine can understand."

"However, my mother sent a letter today, saying that it's been a long time since I haven't seen you, and I miss my concubine, so I want my concubine to go back to stay for a few days tonight. I wonder if the crown prince will agree?"

Xia Chang's smile froze slightly, and he withdrew his hand in embarrassment, then smiled gently.

"This is human nature, how can I stop it? Concubine Dong, let's go. By the way, I will also say hello to me by the way."

"Of course, thank you Prince for your understanding."

Gu Ruoyun bent her knees, and then went to pack her things.

The reason why she wanted to leave the palace to go to her mother's house was because she felt a little awkward and guilty.

What happened between her and Xia Ao today was a great disloyalty to the prince.

Therefore, she wanted to escape for a few days, allowing time to dilute this sense of guilt.
