Chapter 335
Xiaoju used a square towel dipped in wine to cool down Princess Yingxue.

While wiping, he muttered.

"It's true that the princess can't do anything but use her own body as a swordsman. Febrile diseases can be big or small. What if you really hurt yourself?"

"Be quiet."

Xiang Yingxue used all her strength and whispered.

"Princess, are you not asleep?"

Xiaoju stopped holding the handkerchief and looked at her in surprise.

Xiang Yingxue stroked her throat and coughed twice: "How could I sleep at such a critical time?"

"Princess."

Xiaoju leaned close to her ear, her expression full of expectation: "If I say all those things, Master Xiaoguang will take pity on us and let us go back to Chu Country?"

Xiang Yingxue thought for a while and shook her head.

"The brotherhood between Murong Guang and Murong Chen is no less than that between my imperial brother and I. Unless he is forced to a desperate situation, he will never betray that beast Murong Chen. This is why Murong Chen knows that Xiaoguang is friends with me. Well, that’s why I have to keep him in the house to take care of me.”

The light in Xiaoju's eyes suddenly dimmed, and there was a hint of urgency in his voice: "Then what should we do to make Master Xiaoguang willing to let us go?"

Before Princess Yingxue could think of a reply, Murong Chen's vicious look flashed in her mind.

"You'd better not play any tricks, otherwise I will throw you and your stupid maid into the barracks!"

Oh, the barracks!

If this is the case, life would be worse than death!

Xiang Yingxue clenched her fists tightly and looked at Xiaoju.

He said word by word: "If you don't succeed, you will become a benevolent person!"

In the next few days, Murong Guang visited Princess Yingxue from time to time.

Seeing the attentiveness of the Third Prince, the servants in the mansion did not dare to treat her badly in terms of food and clothing.

This is also the real reason why Murong Guang often comes here.

Of course, he was also afraid that if he softened his heart for a moment, he would have the idea of ​​letting her go back to Chu.

I'm afraid that my second brother will be disappointed when he comes back and completely lose trust in him.Therefore, he didn't talk to her very much and stayed by her side silently most of the time.

Three days later, Princess Yingxue's body had almost recovered and she invited him to play chess in the pavilion in the garden.

Murong Guang came as promised and brought her favorite sesame cake.

But still didn't say much.

The two of them just played chess in silence.

Finally, Princess Yingxue spoke first.

She picked up a white chess piece and placed it on the edge, and said calmly: "Is your second brother coming back soon?"

Murong Guang looked at her in surprise.

In the past, every time her second brother was mentioned in front of her, she would get excited.

Either curse or throw something.

Why did you take the initiative to ask about your second brother's return date today?

He dropped a sunspot: "Second brother is going back to Yunzhou City this time. It will take more than a month on the way. It can't be so fast."

Princess Yingxue seemed relieved.

There was still no wave in his voice: "I don't want him to come back soon, I just want to figure out how many leisurely and quiet days I have left."

Murong Guang felt sad, but still said nothing.

What can he say?

Say some words of comfort?
Say some words of persuasion?
These are of no use to Princess Yingxue.

Let her go back to Chu State?
This... is also impossible.

Since the second brother gave her to him, it was out of absolute trust.

Even though he had an old relationship with her, the second brother never had the slightest suspicion.

If such trust is betrayed, how will he face his brother in the future?
