Chapter 21
"Back to His Royal Highness, the Seventh Prince, the slaves have been guarding the Photo Palace, and have not seen any suspicious persons appear." Li Shen, the chief who served He Lianqing, stopped in front of them. "Prince Qing fell asleep not long ago, if the smell of alcohol has not dissipated, if the temper comes up, the slave will..."

"Little Lizi, get out of the way. This matter is very important. If something happens to the third brother, be careful that the king peels your skin, and get out of here!" He Lianxiao turned cold and anxious, and said he took the lead towards walk inside.

"This..." Li Shen tried his best to stop him, but He Lianxiao pushed him away.

The prince immediately followed without saying a word, looking at Helian Xiao who was walking anxiously, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.

In the dormitory, An Zixun spilled all the wine on the floor, made the table messy on purpose, she also threw down the hairpin ornaments, put out the candles, and picked up Helianqing's coat and put it on.

He Lianqing didn't say a word, just watched her finish these in the dark.

"Just say what you want."

"My lord promised that my princess's position will remain unchanged and I will never worry about it. An Zixun really can't think of anything else." She didn't panic at all when she heard the approaching footsteps. "If the prince is willing to sell me a favor, I can give up any princess status."

Beside her ear, it was his low smile, and then his slender arms gently stretched out to hold her palm, the chill ran down her skin and made her feel cold all over.In the dark, his double pupils were particularly bewitching, "No one can make this king make such a promise, An Zixun, why do you?"

Not to be outdone, she smiled at him and narrowed her eyes, the Sansheng Gu couldn't work at this moment, he was as helpless as a newborn child, she completely pretended that she didn't hear Dongfang Feichi's conversation with him.

Secrets are always kept only by the dead. If she doesn't want to die, she has to learn how to play dumb.

"My lord can't do it without me at this moment." An Zixun was lying beside He Lianqing. His body was so cold that it was colder than the temperature of his palm during the day.

He was bowing his head, and the two looked at each other.He Lianqing's familiar breath brushed her cheeks, and suddenly remembered that she hugged him tightly three years ago, his body was as cold as ice, but she was as warm as fire, and the situation was also like this.

Of course, things are different.

The aroma of the wine was strong and surging secretly, but it couldn't hide the faint body fragrance of the person in his arms. He stared at An Zixun's bright eyes with fluctuating emotions, but she slowly closed her head and put her arm gently around his shoulder.

Immediately, the bedroom door rang, and the footsteps stopped suddenly, and someone walked in.

"Who?" He Lianqing stood up and faced the visitor as if alert, a cold and angry voice sounded in the bedroom.

"Third brother!" He Lianxiao said hastily, the room was filled with the smell of wine.

He Lianchen's eyes fell on the figure hidden beside He Lianqing in the tent.

He Lianqing's voice seemed displeased, "You boy, what happened in the middle of the night, and you came to me for help?"

"Third brother." He Lianchen said immediately.

"Second Brother?" In the tent, He Lianqing kept his sideways motionless. He had a very close relationship with He Lianchen, surpassing other brothers, and he directly called him Second Brother instead of Prince in the palace.

"There was an assassin in the palace just now, and the guards found another corpse. They guessed it was his accomplice who murdered him to silence him. The palace is surrounded by heavy siege. It is assumed that the assassin must still be hiding somewhere, so the second brother led people to search from room to room. I never thought of that. It's my fault for disturbing the third brother."

He Lianqing said with a smile, "Thank you for your concern, my second brother, there are no assassins here."

"Second brother was worried that you were drunk and didn't care. He was worried about your safety, so he came in to take a look because he was worried."

"It's okay to search, but I'm in the arms of a beautiful woman, you won't let me miss the beautiful scenery on a good day." The implication is to issue an order to evict guests.

"Brother Prince, what should we do?" He Lianxiao leaned over and asked.

He Lianchen naturally understood, but he stared at the figure in the tent. He smiled lightly at Helianxiao's question, his eyes were as cold as water.

"What does Lao Qi think?"

"Me?" He Lianxiao only said after hearing this, "The elder brother of the crown prince led the troops to search, of course he obeyed your orders."

He Lianqing seemed displeased after hearing their conversation, "This is the bedroom of my mother and concubine. If the second brother is really worried and wants to search, I have no objection! It's just that the emperor's place is there, and I will go to ask for an explanation tomorrow morning." !"

"Okay, don't disturb the third brother's rest." He Lianchen thought for a moment, the photo palace is special in the palace, when the concubine Ying died, the emperor thought about others when he saw things, and specially ordered that no one else could do it unless he had his imperial approval. Feel free to move one thing here.

"Second brother, forgive me, I'll be your host and apologize to you some other day." He Lianqing smiled, as if he was still drunk.

An Zixun was by his side, listening to the conversation between him and the prince, logically no matter how brothers they were, no matter how strict the hierarchy of the royal family was, no matter how much Helianqing was favored, he really didn't care about his elder brother's words.

How could He Lianchen be courteous to him?

Seeing them backing away, An Zixun raised her head and happened to meet his playful eyes, "Seeing that you are very courageous, how can you be afraid sometimes?"

She gave He Lianqing a blank look, but her palms were covered with cold sweat.He Lianchen let go of this opportunity so easily?
Just as he was thinking about getting up, the footsteps outside were hurried, and the palace door was suddenly pushed open again.

He Lianqing saw who it was, and frowned slightly. In this situation, An Zixun smiled rather complacently. This is the right way to develop, and it would be meaningless to pass the test easily.

"Third brother, I'm sorry, I'm on my duty. If the third brother insists on going to my father to discuss what happened tonight, I will be responsible for all the consequences." He Lianchen was unquestionably tough, Everyone stood by and waited for his orders.

He Lianxiao gave a look, signaling them not to act rashly.

"Come on, search!"

Seeing He Lianchen walking towards them step by step, An Zixun lay in He Lianqing's arms, subconsciously holding down his hand, her black hair like ink, leaning against the two of them.

"Offended." He Lianchen stretched out his hand and was about to set off the red luan tent.

"Second Brother!" His voice was loud.

"No!" An Zixun suddenly whispered.

He Lianchen froze, what was this voice?

Her shy and angry voice came out in a moment, "It's all you, it's all you, I said this is not the palace, sir, you drank too much today, and you insist on wearing men's clothes to play with you, you are so bad!"

"You and I are newlyweds, Yaner's boudoir should be like this. Who would have thought that there are assassins in the palace, and the second brother brought people to search for the assassins. I can't blame this king!"

The person hiding in the tent suddenly raised his head, "What kind of assassin! You and I have been here all this time! It's not your fault, it's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Stop talking nonsense!" He Lianqing said to her half drunk and half awake, and reached out to pinch her cheek. "Look, you were shy and called me bad just now, now you are not afraid of being known by outsiders, are you?"

An Zixun snorted softly, raised her hand and raised half of the red curtain, and looked up to see a few people standing not far away. "Don't hide, anyway, I don't want to face people tonight, I don't care, the prince is the one who harmed him!" Rou Mei said coquettishly, unexpectedly she acted so well.

It would be fine if He Lianchen had really left, if she hadn't expected that he would definitely turn back, she would have dealt with it early and waited.The people in the palace are too thoughtful, she thinks it is necessary to keep one hand.

He Lianchen never expected that An Zixun would be here, dressed in men's clothes, with a face of shame and anger, and he understood it in his heart.

"I'm too worried. With my third brother's skill, how can I not detect the intrusion of an assassin. I hope my third brother and younger siblings will forgive me." He Lianchen said apologetically and then led people away.

Lifting her head, she found that He Lianqing was looking at her deeply, but she smiled and got out of bed.The Three Lives Gu is so terrible, he raised it with flesh and blood, endured the pain, it turned out it was for his mother and concubine.

With the light of dawn outside the window, she picked up the clothes on the ground and put them on. There was a slight sound behind her, and she knew that He Lianqing had recovered her skills.

The corners of her lips curled up, and she suddenly coughed violently.He Lianqing supported her shoulders from behind, his movements were unprecedentedly gentle, An Zixun was slightly taken aback.

"Uncomfortable again?" He asked, frowning.

"It's okay." She nodded. In his memory, he never cared about her discomfort.

Look at her pale face, the new medicine is poisonous, and it is inevitable to suffer when it happens.Her body had been trembling since just now, and the familiar feeling of holding her made He Lianqing's heart tremble inexplicably, and she didn't even notice the unprecedented concern in her words.

"Let Dongfang show you later, this new medicine..."
