The carriage passed leisurely through the streets of the capital and went straight to Prince Yi's Mansion on South Street.
Chu Yuanqi followed behind on horseback, wondering in his heart: What on earth did His Highness King Yi want to see him for?
Is it a matter in court?
Or is it related to Cui Minjun just now?
After much deliberation, I didn't have a clue. Before I knew it, Prince Yi's Mansion had arrived.
Chu Yuanqi jumped off his horse and handed the horse's reins to the servants who came out of the palace. When he turned his head, he saw "Shen Wan" standing in front of the carriage holding candied fruits and extending a hand helplessly.
And the cold and majestic His Highness Prince Yi was holding her hand and getting out of the car leisurely.
Chu Yuanqi: "..."
He didn't know what expression to show for a moment, so he stared blankly.
His Highness King Yi seemed to notice his eyes, and he raised his eyes quickly, a cold light of unknown meaning flashed in his eyes.
It seems like a warning, but also like showing off.
Chu Yuanqi felt as if his thoughts had been read for a moment, and he quickly turned his head away, not daring to look again, feeling a little confused.
So he didn't see that as soon as Zhan Beihan got off the carriage, Xiao Lingyue let go of his hand and said coolly: "You deserve it, you were injured and refused to take proper medicine!"
The reason why she helped Zhan Beihan get out of the carriage was because of Zhan Beihan's sudden request when the carriage just stopped.
Xiao Lingyue's first reaction was to refuse: "I'm not a maid, why should I help you? Can't you go by yourself?"
Zhan Beihan said calmly: "I have an injury on my back. I just stretched it."
Xiao Lingyue: "..."
"It's not convenient when you get off the car." Zhan Beihan said again.
"..."
Xiao Lingyue had no choice but to get out of the car first and reached out to help him.
She didn't notice that Chu Yuanqi next to her saw this scene, and was still complaining that Zhan Beihan wanted to die. He was injured and refused to take medicine. He deserved to be inconvenient to even get out of the car.
Zhan Beihan noticed Chu Yuanqi's somewhat pale face and curled up his thin lips in a good mood. He didn't care about Xiao Lingyue's ridicule and pulled her towards the palace: "Follow me!"
Xiao Lingyue was pulled into the main hall by him for no apparent reason.
Chu Yuanqi followed behind with a complicated expression.
When they arrived at the main hall, Xiao Lingyue finally came to his senses, frowned and pulled away from him: "Don't you have something to do with Chu Yuanqi? Why did you bring me here?"
"I'm not looking for him, it's you looking for him."
"......ah?"
Xiao Lingyue was confused for a moment.
Zhan Beihan snorted: "Have you forgotten about breaking off the engagement?"
Xiao Lingyue: "..." She really forgot.
Chu Yuanqi: "..."
He couldn't help clenching his fists, and immediately remembered that his father, Marquis Zhenbei, came back from the palace two days ago and relayed a sentence to King Yi with a complicated expression.
Two days later, he was asked to go to Prince Yi's Mansion to cancel the engagement with "Shen Wan".
Chu Yuanqi thought it was a joke. What does his marriage to "Shen Wan" have to do with Prince Yi's palace?
His father, Marquis Zhenbei, denied his idea and didn't say much. He just patted him on the shoulder and said, "You should think it over carefully these two days. If you decide to break off the engagement, come and tell your father."
Chu Yuanqi still remembered the complicated mood at that time.
He couldn't figure out what he was thinking. Breaking off the engagement was a decision he had made long ago, and he never thought he would hesitate.
However, I don't know why, but I feel vaguely uncomfortable in my heart.
