She went to the East Palace to be a eunuch, and the prince became her subordinate.

Saying that, Ye Chenjue knelt down and held Ye Chenyu in his arms. The tenderness in his eyes was something Ye Xuwan had never seen before.

"Yu'er can't live without her brother, and I can't live without my sister. It's because I failed to protect her."

This was the first time that Ye Chenjue used the terms brother and sister to describe the two of them.

Why don't they want to be like a pair of brother and sister?

Ye Chenjue glanced at the tent with the flames soaring into the sky and spoke softly.

"Ye Xuwan, leave quickly. It's my fault. I shouldn't have brought you into this dispute. Leave here and go back to Mo Yunzheng."

"You deserve it better."

Ye Chenjue's words were like knives stabbing into Ye Xuwan's chest. She looked at the brother and sister with blurry eyes and stood still for a long time.

Ye Chenjue looked at her in confusion, with a rare hint of anxiety in his tone.

"Aren't you going to leave and wait to die?"

What on earth is this woman doing? She had to leave when she wasn't allowed to leave, but now that she was allowed to leave, she actually didn't move.

Ye Xuwan's eyes were downcast and she sighed.

"never mind."

Ye Xuwan said softly: "I will not let you die."

_

"Sister-in-law, isn't the food Yu'er brought delicious?"

Ye Xuwan took a deep breath and looked at Yu'er sitting next to her in panic, who was looking at her with big eyes.

Ye Chenjue also stared at her with some confusion, seeming a little surprised by Ye Xuwan's reaction.

"what happened?"

Everything that is alive is alive.

Fortunately, she had the skill of rewinding, and she finally retreated before Ye Chenyu was poisoned.

"Sister-in-law, you..."

"Yu'er!"

Saying that, Ye Xuwan hurriedly put down Ye Chenyu's chopsticks, looked at everyone present warily, and then looked at the food on her table.

Both of them have eaten the food on the table. The only thing that can be poisoned is this cup of tea!

Thinking of this, Ye Xuwan raised her hand and threw the tea cup to the ground, hugged Ye Chenyu and pointed at the assassin behind Ye Chenjue.

"The tea is poisonous! It's him, he wants to harm Yu'er!"

As soon as Ye Xuwan said these words, everyone present was stunned.

Ye Chenyu's dark eyes were lowered, cold light shot out from his eyes, and he stared at the guard with a pair of dangerous eyes.

"Oh?"

"..."

When the assassin saw this, he immediately prepared to rush out of the tent and escape. Before he could take two steps away, a sword fell on his shoulder.

"Tell me who you are."

Ye Chenjue narrowed his cold light and stared at the assassin.

Knowing that he couldn't escape, the assassin looked up to the sky and laughed.

"Who am I? His Royal Highness naturally doesn't know who I am, but I know it clearly!"

"Two years ago, my brother was captured by you as a young man! News of his death came within a few days. It's all you royals who treat the lives of us civilians as nothing. If it weren't for you, my brother would not have died!"

"My brother and I have been dependent on each other since we were young! I decided to avenge him!"

After that, the man took out a dagger from his chest and stabbed Ye Chenjue. Yechenjue took a step back and cut his throat with a swing of the sword.

Immediately, the man fell into a pool of blood.

"court death."

Ye Chenjue whispered.

Seeing that the assassin was dealt with, Ye Xuwan breathed a sigh of relief and let Yu'er down. She looked at Yu'er with relief.

Finally, both of their lives were saved.

"Ye Shen Jue, I..."

"Get her."

Ye Xuwan felt her shoulders sink, and her whole body was pressed down by the guards. She knelt on the ground with a clang, and two long swords were crossed around her neck.

If she was not careful, she would die.

"Ye Shen Jue, what are you doing!"

Ye Xuwan looked at him angrily. Come on, she wasted her points to come back and save both of their lives!

What about heaven?

"What?"

Ye Chenjue took Yu'er's hand and spoke with a cold tone.

"Why do you know this tea cup is poisonous? Are you afraid that you are not accomplices?"

Damn, just forget about it.

"Your Highness, if I were an accomplice, I would not be able to inform you of this matter."

"According to Your Highness's temperament, if the princess is killed, you will not be able to survive alone. The reason why you think I am also an accomplice is just that if I kill you, I can return to my motherland, but with my skills, I will definitely not be able to get out alive. , since I can’t live, why should I try so hard to expose him?”

Ye Chenjue's eyes darkened again, and he tightened his grip on Yu'er's hand.

"You know Gu very well?"

Ye Xuwan looked directly into Ye Chenjue's eyes without fear.

"I dare not speculate on your heart, but the only thing I am sure of is that your highness must be a good brother."

Ye Shenjue: "..."

"Brother Imperial, the Imperial Sister-in-law saved me, otherwise Yu'er would have been poisoned and died."

Only then did Ye Chenyu react from her panic. She hugged Ye Chenjue's neck with red eyes.

"Brother, the emperor's sister-in-law saved me, she saved me, don't punish her..."

Ye Chenjue sighed.

"Let it go, Ye Xuwan, go to the cliff and wait for me."

……

About an hour later, Ye Chenjue walked out of the tent. He looked at the bright moon in the dark night sky with his eyes downcast.

"Is it beautiful?"

How could Ye Xuwan be in the mood to admire the moon at this moment? Come on, this man almost killed her!

My life was almost lost!

"good."

"Ah……"

Ye Chenjue chuckled, the moonlight shining on him.

"Ye Xuwan, aren't you afraid that I will really kill you?"

She is afraid! Why isn't she afraid?

Who is not afraid of death? Help.

"You are Your Highness, and I am in your hands now. If you really want to kill me, I can't help it."

Ye Chenjue chuckled.

"Ye Xuwan, you are very smart, but you are wrong. Yu'er is my sister, yes. I am his royal brother and the current prince."

"Yu'er is dead, I will avenge her, but the prince's responsibility is to govern the country and bring peace to the country. There is no way I will waste my life. You imagine that I am overestimating the love between a son and a daughter."

No one knew what kind of expression flashed in the depths of Ye Chenjue's eyes, but it didn't matter at all.

Ye Xuwan knew very well the reason why Ye Chenjue said this.

He was defending, arguing that Yu'er was his weakness, so that he could ensure Yu'er's safety to the greatest extent and be able to fight alone without distractions.

If she hadn't almost died in the fire with him, Ye Xuwan would have really believed it.

"There is no one else here, so why would your Highness lie?"

Ye Xuwan stopped pretending and leaned down to sit on the ground. She looked at the moon in the night sky and spoke softly.

"Yu'er told me about your situation. You can't live without your sister, and Yu'er can't live without your brother, right? In fact, you are not as bad as I saw, Ye Shenjue, you are a good brother, and you will definitely be a good brother. monarch."

Ever since he was young, no one other than Yu'er had spoken to Ye Chenjue like this, and an inexplicable feeling took root in his heart.

He chuckled.

"Okay, you saved Yu'er's life, how about I grant you a wish?"

"really?"

Ye Xuwan stood up excitedly: "Can you please let me go?"

Ye Chenjue's eyes trembled.

"No way, I won't put you back."

"You have to know that we are destined to win. It will be difficult for you to survive in a defeated country if you go back. It is better to stay here. I, Ye Shen Jue, will definitely ensure that you will be prosperous, wealthy, and safe for the rest of your life."
