Chapter 33

On the first night in Yong'an Palace, Chu Yan tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

The bucket used for bathing was different, the incense burnt in the side hall was different, and the quilt and pillows were all different. She lay there looking at the bedspread with repeated patterns, then suddenly sat up, and walked out wearing unlined clothes like this.

Hanzhi was guarding outside, and Dong Yi came to wait on him in the middle of the night. When he saw Chu Yan come out, he was surprised, "Master, why don't you sleep?"

Chu Yan smiled, "I can't fall asleep, get up and walk, and go back to sleep when I'm tired from walking."

After finishing speaking, he walked to the backyard, Hanzhi hurriedly shouted, "Master, don't be so busy, there is wind at night and the weather is cold, servant girl will go in and get you some clothes."

She ran into the house in a hurry, but Chu Yan didn't wait for her, and just walked along the long corridor to the backyard.

Yong'an Palace is very large, with one main hall, three side halls, and a front courtyard and backyard.

She walked under the light of the lantern in the corridor, only the sound of a person's footsteps could be heard in the silent late night, and the shadow was elongated vaguely by the light and shadow, swaying gently with the footsteps.

Where is the prince's study?

After thinking for a while, she walked towards the study, but the goal was not the study, but the place in the backyard near the study.

There are two rockeries in the pool, with a small bridge connected between them, the moonlight is gentle tonight, Chu Yan looked up, and found that it was a full moon night.

That's even better, such a scene always makes people think of some lingering and beautiful things.

She walked up the small bridge slowly, sat on the floor leaning on the bridge railing, crossed her legs and looked up at the moon.

Hanzhi's voice came from afar, "Master? Master?" Obviously looking for her.

She didn't answer, knowing that the voice would attract the attention of others.

But the fact is that Gu Qi, who was still reading at night by the candle in the study, really heard the voice, put down the scroll in his hand, walked to the window and looked into the backyard, and saw the man sitting on the bridge in surprise.

The moonlight all over the place is full of color, and the courtyard is deeply alone.

Chu Yan was wearing pure white single clothes, leaning there alone, looking up at the moonlight motionless.

Gu Qi just looked at her like this, wondering if she was looking up at the bright moon and looking down at her hometown.

The Shuangyang Pond is water-soluble, and the north and south are connected by a small radius. The jade man is still leaning on the bridge railing, and there is an occasional breeze.

This scene was very pleasing to the eye, but Gu Qi's gaze was fixed on her thin clothes, and his brows frowned instantly.

On a chilly spring night, with constant cold wind, is she dying?
So when Chu Yan was raising her head to look at the bright moon, the moonlight above her head was suddenly covered by someone. She was taken aback, looking at the figure blocking her view, and hurriedly called out, "See Your Highness the Crown Prince."

Gu Qi looked down at her condescendingly, his eyes flicked on her thin single clothes, then he narrowed his eyes slightly, and said unhurriedly, "Is it rough?"

Chu Yan was stunned for a moment, and then realized that this guy was using her words to mock her!
She quickly patted her buttocks and stood up, and took the initiative to admit her mistake, "I came out casually, but I forgot to add some clothes."

Gu Qi understood, since they all took off their coats, they must have gone to bed, and now they ran out again, most likely they couldn't fall asleep.

He glanced at her, "Isn't it cold?"

Chu Yan hurriedly smiled and said, "It's not cold."

As soon as the words fell, the same situation as during the meal happened again-she had an itchy nose, and suddenly covered her mouth and sneezed.

Gu Qi's eyes swept over sharply, "Is this called cold?"

Her scalp was numb, she lowered her head with a mournful face, "...Chu Yan is guilty."

"You look quite small, but you are very courageous. When you tell a lie, your face doesn't change and your heart beats." Gu Qi commented on her like this. Seeing that her nose was flushed and her fragile appearance was likely to be blown away by the night wind, her heart immediately He sank, and his tone became a little cold, "You lie in front of me again and again, do you think you live too long?"

He is going to be the emperor in the future, although Chu Yan is not considered to be deceiving the emperor now, but the crime is not small.

Hearing what he said so seriously, there was still anger in his voice, Chu Yan hurriedly bent down, honestly admitted his mistake, "Chu Yan was afraid that His Highness the Crown Prince would be worried, so...that's why she lied, and I hope His Highness will make amends!"

Gu Qi looked at her with an unfriendly expression, "Worried about you? You are thinking too much."

As he said that, seeing her shivering again when a gust of cold wind came, he took off his coat with an ugly face, and put it on her body not very gently, "Put it on!"

Chu Yan: "...." Your Highness, can you be more arrogant?
Don't worry about her words, what to do to undress her?

The clothes on his shoulders still carried his warm body temperature, and when he looked up at him, he could still find the faint anger hidden between his brows and eyes, Chu Yan suddenly raised the corners of her lips to give him a generous smile, "Thank you, Your Highness. "

And at this time, Hanzhi finally saw the figure of the master from a distance, holding her coat in her hand, but when she saw that she was already wearing the clothes of His Royal Highness, Hanzhi smiled secretly, and lightly The feet disappeared beyond the corridor.

It was another moonlit night, and it was another scene of the two of them being alone together.

Chu Yan looked up at Gu Qi, and asked him suddenly, "What is your Highness thinking?"

"I think I should take the clothes back and freeze you to death. As long as the princess dies, I won't have to work hard to control the Zhao family's power." He answered without hesitation, and looked at her indifferently. .

Chu Yan's face darkened.

... This man changes three times a day.

Hearing his childish tone, Chu Yan became more courageous, and simply stretched out her hand to pull the clothes on her shoulders, and said with a smile, "Then I will return the clothes to Your Highness, if you freeze to death, you will freeze to death, always let Your Highness It’s good to get what you want.”

As soon as the words fell, the person in front of him suddenly shot two knife-like gazes, indulged in silence, and those vicious and sharp eyes clearly expressed what he hadn't said before - if you have the guts, try it?

Chu Yan's hands froze, but she didn't take off her clothes after all. She shrank back in despair, lowered her head and rubbed her toes on the ground, "Isn't this trying to calm you down..."

Because she was going to sleep earlier, her bun was removed to only a few small braids, and the rest of the hair was thickly scattered on her shoulders, like a black waterfall.

Gu Qi watched those strands of hair fall down her shoulders as she lowered her head, rippling slightly in the wind, and she was doing such a childish posture, the appearance of rubbing her feet on the ground was ridiculous and cute.

A corner of his heart suddenly collapsed, and the previous qi disappeared without a trace. He stretched out his hand to catch a strand of hair that was swaying in the wind, and murmured, "It's gone."

Chu Yan looked up at him, and said in a daze, "Huh?"

He looked into those bright eyes and couldn't help sighing, "I said, I've calmed down."

Then Chu Yan showed another big smile, her eyes were like lit little lanterns, "Really?"

He couldn't help laughing, reached out and nodded on her smooth forehead, "Really."

In this way, she is like a child, carefree and undisguised.

Gu Qi secretly thought in his heart, if this can really go on like this, it would actually be very good to see her look unburdened.It was better than seeing her in the study of Huayan Palace that day, full of tears, as if the whole world had failed her.

Thinking about it this way, some things seemed to become clear, the government is the government, Chu Yan is Chu Yan, as long as she lives in the small world he gave her, it is best to isolate everything else.

Just when Gu Qi was still thinking about something, he suddenly heard Chu Yan shout cheerfully, "Fireflies!"

He was taken aback, then looked in the direction of her finger, and saw a few small lanterns dancing in the air at the edge of the bamboo forest, the hazy light spots were like stars in the night sky, it was really beautiful.

And the person in front of him was indeed a child who hadn't grown up, so he walked briskly to the edge of the bamboo forest, his clothes were still on his body, and he didn't care about the road under his feet, just watching the fireflies running like this.

Gu Qi didn't move or speak, just stood quietly on the bridge and looked at her.

Chu Yan was determined to copy all the idol dramas Gongdouju that she had seen before for a hundred times. Against the steep night wind, enduring the goosebumps all over her body, she quickly ran into the fireflies, and then her posture was light Standing on tiptoe, I tried my best to reach the fireflies.

God help her, the auxiliary props of such an idol drama can also appear, must like it!

But all of this has been endowed with a new meaning in Gu Qi's eyes. The little person shuttles among the fireflies like a butterfly, tiptoes to touch those sparks, but whenever she is about to touch them, the sparks They quickly changed their route and moved away from her, so she persistently danced with them, stubborn and childish.

Gu Qi was fascinated by both his eyes and his heart.

In the 23 years since he grew up, no woman has ever shown such a beautiful face in front of him, acting recklessly, yet intelligent and beautiful.

Sometimes he felt that Chu Yan was an unfathomable woman, calm and calm, far better than him.

But more often, such as now, she became a child who didn't grow up, only showing such a vivid face in front of him, with a pure mind like a child.

Gu Qi felt that she was like a butterfly, so he had to catch her and not let her slip away.

It was really unbearable for the night wind to blow on her body, even though the moment when her robes were flying was extremely beautiful, Chu Yan endured the ravages of the cold wind bitterly, crying in her heart.

Just when she thought it was almost over, Gu Qi had already approached her, and suddenly grabbed her hand, she was startled, and the moment she turned around, she was embraced by him.

His embrace is warm and firm, even if it is not firm enough to be fully grown, it already reveals some kindness and firmness that are different from before.

Chu Yan was a little surprised, the plot of the idol drama was so powerful that the prince couldn't control it?

But in the next moment, his voice could not be heard more clearly, and with the trembling in his chest, he said softly on top of her head, "Don't catch any more, such a fragile thing, if you continue to torture it, it will die. of."

Chu Yan: "...." Torture your uncle!
