Chu Xingchen was hesitant to speak. He wanted to ask directly, but he felt that it was wrong to ask like this.
If Zhou Buyan was really injured, it was because of her on the battlefield for Da Chu. She must understand, let alone dislike him, and help keep it secret.
But this is the worst case scenario. The old doctor didn’t diagnose it, so the problem may not be serious.
If she wanted to speak out frankly, she might not be able to make a fool of herself. Maybe Zhou Buyan was simply tired or didn't want to.
Finally, Chu Xingchen let the old doctor go back, and Zhou Buyan breathed a sigh of relief.
Afraid that Chu Xingchen would ask him directly, Zhou Buyan could only pretend to be relaxed and said, "I have been very tired during this period, but fortunately I am fine."
Chu Xingchen breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, "I must have been too tired before. Now that you are back, you can have a good rest."
It seemed that Zhou Buyan was just too tired.
He had never told her about the cruelty of the war, nor could he tell anyone about their pressure.
Although Zhou Buyan temporarily dispelled Chu Xingchen's doubts, the matter was not resolved.
At night, he couldn't hold it any longer, and when he wanted to talk to Chu Xingchen, there was a faint shout from outside, which seemed to go unnoticed.
Then there was a sound of footsteps.
"Your Majesty, something happened at Jinghong Hall."
Chu Xingchen originally thought to see if Zhou Buyan would take the initiative tonight, but then he heard this.
Suddenly all the charming thoughts flew away.
"What's going on? Is Xiao Jun okay?"
"I don't know, but it's burning over there."
When Chu Xingchen and Zhou Buyan went out, they saw smoke coming from the direction of Jinghong Hall. Zhou Buyan glanced at it and said, "Your Majesty, I will go and save people first."
Then he disappeared.
For Xiao Wang, his annoyance returned to annoyance, and his hatred returned to hatred, but he was unambiguous about saving people.
Chu Xingchen will definitely not be able to catch up with Zhou Buyan.
Fortunately, although the fire broke out, the fire was not very big. It was just that some curtains were missing and it was put out quickly.
When they heard that the fire had broken out, there was a lot of commotion, and the palace where Xiao Wang lived was on fire, so everyone was busy coming to save it.
When Zhou Buyan arrived, the fire had been put out, and Xiao Wang stood outside in a somewhat embarrassed state, with his coat wrapped around him.
Jinyan sent someone to find the imperial doctor, worried, "It's already blistering. Why would Mr. Xiao just grab it with his hands?"
Zhou Buyan stepped forward and took a look. Xiao Wang's slender white fingers were burned red and even blistered.
Zhou Buyan looked at the water basin in the hand of the palace man next to him. After confirming that the water was clean, he grabbed it directly, stretched out his hand to pull Xiao Wang over, and pressed his hand in.
Xiao Wang struggled, Zhou Buyan frowned and held him down, not letting him move.
"Don't move."
Xiao Wang saw him rushing towards him, disheveled, and knew that he was here to save him, and his heart suddenly became complicated.
"Thanks."
Zhou Buyan didn't want to accept his thanks. When he saw such a small fire and heard that Xiao Wang grabbed it with his bare hands, based on his previous knowledge of him, he suddenly overthought it.
"Just don't catch fire with your bare hands anymore. I never thought that the calm and rational Mr. Xiao would do such stupid things. I'm curious as to why."
After hearing this, Xiao Wang's expression changed slightly. Although he was also burned red but not that serious, he tightened his hands and unconsciously touched something that had been put in his sleeve.
Zhou Buyan raised his eyebrows when he saw Xiao Wang's reaction, "You didn't really make this noise on purpose, did you?"
It's no joke to cheat. Xiao Wang can't be so confused, right?
Xiao Wang raised his eyebrows, "Why do you say that?"
He suddenly understood, "Do you think I made a fuss on purpose?"
He asked back with an incomprehensible expression. Zhou Buyan thought things were a bit strange, so he made a casual guess, but he didn't expect Xiao Wang to react like this.
This really made him think too much.
"You're not afraid of self-defeating things either."
Zhou Buyan looked at Xiao Wang's hand soaked in the water and paused, "But with your meticulous plan, Xiao Wang must have made several preparations."
Amidst Jinyan's commanding and orderly voice, the two of them talked in a low voice in the corner with their backs to the crowd.
Outsiders only saw them living in harmony and worrying about each other, but they didn't know what they said.
Xiao Wang smiled and said, "Thank you for thinking so highly of me."
Zhou Buyan had no expression on his face, "I'm still wondering why you haven't taken any action yet. It turns out you were waiting here and used the torture trick. This burn is the most torturous, and you are really ruthless."
Xiao Wang's ambiguous attitude made Zhou Buyan really suspect that Xiao Wang had deliberately made such a fuss and wanted to prevent him from getting close to His Majesty.
Xiao Wang looked at Zhou Buyan, a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes.
In Zhou Buyan's eyes, he might really be the person who did such a thing. Zhou Buyan had a good sense and knew him well enough, so it was not an unjust accusation.
He had indeed thought about this, and he had often done so before.
But...this fire and even injuries were indeed accidental.
Xiao Wang was about to explain when he listened to Zhou Buyan's words, "Xiao Wang, as soon as he got close to His Majesty, he decided to monopolize His Majesty's heart. Even I can't touch him."
Zhou Buyan himself was already struggling with pain, but when he saw Xiao Wang acting like this, his tone made him grit his teeth.
"Aren't you afraid that your little thoughts will be exposed?"
Xiao Wang was stunned for a moment before realizing that Zhou Buyan seemed to have misunderstood.
Zhou Buyan seemed to have misunderstood that he had a close relationship with His Majesty.
He had indeed given guidance in this regard before, but at most he just wanted to make Zhou Buyan angry and did not want to deceive Zhou Buyan. After all, Zhou Buyan still had a shadow in his hands.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Buyan seemed to have completely misunderstood.
It seems that although Zhou Buyan had a shadow in his hand, he didn't make much use of it and actually believed everything he created.
Zhou Buyan thought that he and His Majesty had accomplished something.
No wonder Zhou Buyan was so hostile before and became so murderous when seeing him. It turned out to be a misunderstanding.
Zhou Buyan actually misunderstood.
Xiao Wang didn't know what to say for a moment.
Seeing Zhou Buyan's angry look, Xiao Wang remembered his painful and painful mood before.
Zhou Buyan's painful and angry look was very familiar to him, because he had been in pain before, was still in pain now, and would continue to be in pain in the future.
In this case, why not let Zhou Buyan suffer a little more?
He even chewed His Majesty before!
He can still sleep with His Majesty!
Xiao Wang thought like this, knowing that Zhou Buyan had misunderstood, but he didn't say anything or explain.
It would be weird if he could explain it, just let him misunderstand it.
As a love rival, he explained, that would be strange.
Anyway, as soon as he asks His Majesty, the misunderstanding will be cleared up, and the pain will not last long. He can make him uncomfortable for a while, and he has earned the extra quarter of an hour.
It would be best if Zhou didn't say anything about his pain and suffering and just accepted it. After all, he was still evil-minded.
There's no saying that it will come true someday. It's painful both in the morning and in the evening, so just get used to it first.
Xiao Wang thought about it and stopped denying it.
"I don't understand what you're talking about, it's just that everyone depends on their abilities."
He neither admitted nor denied, and deliberately gave ambiguous answers to mislead Zhou.
