She is lonely

Chapter 74 Gu Cen, You Are Too Sticky 49
Concubine Xiang stood on the pavilion, watching the cold and indifferent figure leaving by the forest, until she disappeared at the gate of the courtyard, Princess Xiang slowly retracted her gaze, lowered her head, and looked at the broken body that was thrown at her feet. A pair of boots, she bent down and squatted down, picked them up, and silently wiped the snow spots on the boots with her sleeves.

Princess Xiang hugged the broken boots into her arms, tightly closed her eyes and gasped for breath.

It seemed that it was not the boots that were broken, but her own heart.

"Is the prince making you sad again?"

A familiar voice came from behind, Princess Xiang froze, she calmed down, just now she got up and turned her head, saw Mu Linchi coming from the backyard, she couldn't help being slightly startled.

Princess Xiang looked at him and frowned.

Mu Linchi explained: "I came in through the back door, but he didn't see it."

"Master Dudu shouldn't be here." Xiang Wangfei said softly, her tone was alienated and indifferent.

Hearing these words, Mu Linchi moved his lips, but in the end he didn't explain anything. He just stepped forward, put the prepared gifts on the pavilion, looked at the tools on the table, his eyes deepened and sank. He said: "Guan Pan, you have always known what I'm thinking, and I've never had any intentions for you in all these years. I just hope that you will take care of yourself from the beginning to the end, and those things outside don't matter. Whether it is the emperor or the prince has nothing to do with you, I don't want you to get involved in these right and wrong grievances again."

Princess Xiang turned her back to him, clasped her hands tightly, and said nothing.

"Guan Pan, don't seek your own death, understand?" Seeing that she was silent, Mu Linchi's words were a little bit harsher than before.

Princess Xiang closed her eyes, and finally said slowly: "Thank you for your concern, Dudu. I know what to do and what not to do."

"I don't think you know." Mu Linchi said coldly.

"The prince is rarely angry with me. This time, His Majesty must have done something that touched his bottom line. I can't just sit idly by." Princess Xiang could see that Mu Linchi's attitude was not forgiving, so she had to tell the truth.

After listening to Guan Pan's words, Mu Linchi murmured for a while, "I know what's going on, Your Majesty should just want to test the fourth son of the Gu family, but it happens that the fourth son is on the side of the princelings, the prince His Highness probably felt that His Majesty moved his people under his nose, so he couldn't be more angry, but he should not misunderstand that you still have a close relationship with His Majesty, the Crown Prince is too restless."

Princess Xiang asked worriedly: "Is there something wrong with Mr. Gu?"

"People are fine, don't worry." Mu Linchi looked at Guan Pan worried about the prince again, fell silent for a moment, and sighed softly, "Guan Pan, I will watch His Highness the Prince's movements for you, I won't Let him mess around, don't enter the palace, okay?"

Princess Xiang stared at him blankly, her eyes were a little dazed, but she forced herself to nod her head.

"It's almost Chinese New Year, you..." Mu Linchi looked at her, hesitating to speak.

Princess Xiang didn't give him a chance to continue, so she said calmly: "This year's New Year's Eve, the governor doesn't have to come again, the governor should leave time for his family."

Mu Linchi smiled bitterly. His wife died because of his dystocia. There are two children in the family, one of whom has been fighting in the battlefield all the year round and hasn't been home for three years. I hated him so much that I still can't forgive him, let alone come back to spend the holidays with him on New Year's Eve.

But what Guan Pan meant was that he was not allowed to come to her again on New Year's Eve this year. Mu Linchi never dared to force her to do anything. Hearing what she said, he had no choice but to agree.

The New Year's Eve has not yet come, but Mu Linchi seems to have thought of how depressed and lonely he must be that night.
