Eunuch Cheng considered his tone and asked carefully: "My child, what's wrong with you? Who is being bullied?"

Eunuch Cheng has never seen Chu Xiaomeng like this. This girl's face has always been filled with smiles. No matter how big things happen, it's hard for her to bow her head. Today's abnormality makes him worried.

Chu Xiaomeng did not speak, and her eyes never moved away from meeting Prince Yan. Even if he was busy seeing off a few scholars, her eyes kept following him. Eunuch Cheng's voice was not loud, but the two of them

Everyone could hear it, and Chu Xiaomeng was feeling inexplicably bitter at this moment, not thinking about how to speak.

Prince Yan had not changed out of his court uniform. He came back early from the court today, but he was not idle. He was busy explaining to several scholars who were going to serve as officials in the court before he returned to the mansion earlier. As for Chu Xiaomeng's trip out of the mansion, he had not changed.

He couldn't spare the time to change out of his court clothes. The patterns outlined by the gold and silver threads on the official robes were lifelike, and the large court clothes really looked too much on his body.

He was very majestic. The hair crown on his head was taken off, and his black hair was tied up. His forehead was neatly combed, revealing his smooth forehead. His sharp facial features were more three-dimensional. When the sun shone down, a shadow fell on the bridge of his tall nose.

, there was also a layer of shadows under the eyelashes, which suddenly stirred up people's hearts, but it was a pity that Chu Xiaomeng did not have the intention to appreciate it at this time.

He turned around, his eyes immediately caught Chu Xiaomeng, and he stepped in front of her in three or two steps. Chu Xiaomeng looked at his tall figure walking towards her, and the uneasiness in her heart was relieved, and she was not so anxious.

.

I saw him chuckle, and his sharp and solemn facial features suddenly became vivid, and he was so approachable. I don't know if the sunlight behind him was too strong, but Chu Xiaomeng was enchanted by it.

"What's wrong?" It wasn't until a familiar voice sounded that Chu Xiaomeng immediately came back to her senses, as if she finally realized that her gaze was a bit inappropriate, and it was really embarrassing that she hurriedly looked back but was looking into someone else's eyes.

Chu Xiaomeng hesitated. The momentum in her heart had disappeared the moment she saw him walking towards her. Now she didn't know where to start.

Fortunately, Prince Yan did not press any further and asked everyone to enter the house. Maybe there were more busy things, and Eunuch Cheng didn't have time to say a few words to Chu Xiaomeng before he hurriedly followed.

Chu Xiaomeng walked back to Yongqinyuan by herself, her face as calm as if nothing had happened. The people who happened to meet her as they passed by seemed to have made an agreement, but they actually didn't say a word to her.

She didn't show anything strange. But the more this happened, the more uncomfortable she felt.

After returning to Yongqinyuan, all the girls were doing what they were doing, and no one came up to say anything. Chu Xiaomeng went back to her room, lay on the bed and closed her eyes to rest, but her mind was filled with what the woman said.

, and those thrilling scenes last night.

From last night to now, she has alternated between joy and anger so quickly that she actually feels tired. Thinking of what happened last night, she feels very confused.

Everyone was telling her that Prince Yan treated her very differently. When Chu Xiaomeng thought about it carefully, she didn't think there was anything strange about him. From the moment she met Prince Yan, she felt that Prince Yan was a very good person, but

She never had any other thoughts. She thought, Prince Yan treated her the same way. Wasn't it because she was disturbing others when she saved her, and was he just taking it easy?

But everyone was telling her that Prince Yan treated her very differently. Chu Xiaomeng had never really cared about it, but now she couldn't ignore it.

She also didn't understand her own attitude. She didn't understand why she was angry when she found out that Prince Yan was avoiding her last night. She was nothing but a little maid. No matter how different they were, there was always a relationship between her and him.

return

There was a barrier. That place was Prince Yan's secret place and was not allowed to be known by others. She went there rashly. Although Wang Youfeng brought her there, she still felt like she had peeped into other people's secrets. Prince Yan avoided her.

It is as it should be.

But the unhappiness in her heart last night was real. Not only that, she also showed it. Even Prince Yan could see that she cared. Now that she had calmed down, Chu Xiaomeng thought about it carefully. She really cared.

? If so, in what capacity does she care?

After thinking about it, I still felt that I had caused trouble to others. Prince Yan had so many people who were hostile to him in the officialdom. If it had any impact on his career because of her, Chu Xiaomeng felt that she would die of guilt.

All kinds of messy thoughts in Chu Xiaomeng's head finally stopped after she finally figured it out. She even slept in such a muddle-headed manner for a short while before being woken up by Dan Qing.

Danqing brought tea in, and the fragrance of Pu'er made Chu Xiaomeng's heart and lungs clear. She sat on the bed and stared at Danqing with hazy eyes. Her hair, which she had just combed in the morning, was as messy as if she were staring at a chicken coop.

A little more cute.

"Xiaomeng, you just woke up and your mouth must be very dry. Drink some water to moisten it first." Danqing handed the water to Chu Xiaomeng's hand. Chu Xiaomeng felt the warm touch and felt comfortable, so she opened the lid of the cup.

, I poured a lot of water into my stomach, and my dry lips were finally moisturized and not so pale.

"Xiaomeng, Eunuch Cheng asked someone to come here with a message. He only wants to talk to me. He wants you to have a good rest. He will be there for everything else, so you can relax and don't worry too much or think too much."

Danqing closed the door of the room and lowered her voice to talk to Chu Xiaomeng. Seeing that Chu Xiaomeng didn't look good, she felt very uncomfortable.

Chu Xiaomeng nodded blankly. It turned out that everyone knew that she was the only one who didn't know anything and was still worried.

Danqing didn't cry, but her voice was still choked with sobs. She grabbed Chu Xiaomeng's hand and said more sincerely: "Miss, how does Prince Yan treat you? If he doesn't care about you, no

You should keep entangled with the lady vaguely. The person who is most hurt by such rumors is the lady. I don’t care about others, I only care about the lady.

, I only care about the young lady. You were born in an innocent family. How can your noble status be slandered like that and compared with that brothel girl? Now that you have left the Chu Mansion and such a thing has happened, why don't we make your identity public?

The young lady and Prince Yan have an engagement, so saying this will calm down a lot of opinions and save people from pointing at the back in the future."

Chu Xiaomeng's empty mind did not hear Danqing's words at all, but her last sentence attracted her, and he immediately covered her mouth to prevent her from speaking any more.

She has long said that she does not care whether she is innocent or not. A person who is clean will be clean. No matter how others slander her or throw dirty water on her, they will not hurt her. Her identity must not be made public. She finally got out of it.

After Chu Mansion escaped, she really didn't know how Prince Yan would react if he knew that she was his fiancée. She really couldn't imagine how she would face him.

"Danqing, don't say these words again in the future! Since I have made up my mind to sever ties with the Chu family, I will no longer use my identity as the eldest lady of the Chu family. I am Chu Xiaomeng. I have a humble status but I am not contemptuous of others.

Your words can't hurt me, let alone trying to inflict crimes! I'm just worried...

...Sigh! Forget it, since Eunuch Cheng said he can handle it, then I should worry less." Chu Xiaomeng bit her lip, and the chapped lip broke when she bit it, and a small condensation formed.

As soon as she pursed her lips, warm blood poured into her mouth. The bloody smell overflowed between her lips and teeth, making her sick.

Dan Qing knew that Chu Xiaomeng would never agree to this matter. Her attitude had always been very stiff, and she had also expressed that if Dan Qing wanted to leave, she would let her go at any time. How could Dan Qing dare to say more?

Chu Xiaomeng, whose brain was switching on and off, could still remember that she had not finished her work. After taking a short rest, she packed up and headed towards Prince Yan's yard.

Prince Yan must be in the courtyard. Chu Xiaomeng made preparations in her mind before entering the courtyard, but she didn't know why she made preparations.

After walking through a small path, we passed the corridor. When we walked through the stone arch at the end of the corridor, we could see the pavilion and water pavilion in the front yard. Chu Xiaomeng stepped through the door and was attracted by the sound of the piano. It was brisk and clean, making people listen.

Comforting. Then a few gentle meows attracted her attention.

At a glance, Chu Xiaomeng saw the little monster wandering under her feet. The furry little lump was wrapped around her feet. His pink and tender tongue was licking her shoes, and he was getting close to her very intimately.

Chu Xiaomeng immediately squatted down and picked up the little monster, and patted its head as he wished, making the little monster purr comfortably. It also made Chu Xiaomeng feel very good. The little guy was still alive yesterday.

I'm sick, but I can walk around today. It seems to be much better.

"Little monster, why did you come here? Aren't you afraid that someone will drive you away?" Chu Xiaomeng said pointedly, holding the little monster and walking towards the sound of the piano.

The man was sitting in the pavilion. He was dressed in white and was playing the piano with his slender fingers. His face was calm and focused on the movements in his hands. Only small movements could be seen with the sound of the piano. Only those who looked carefully could notice it.

Chu Xiaomeng couldn't help but be stunned. She stood at a distance and looked at the figure. It was as hazy as if she had walked out of a painting. A gentleman is like jade. Yu Wuxia calls out? Yu Wuxia calls out? When he sees Qing, he says,

If you don’t see it, you don’t have it.

The glazed tiles and water droplets played, the water gurgled, the reeds fluttered, and the lotus in the pool was as pure white as cotton blooming on the water, and was so soft that it dripped on the water, as if it was dancing emotionally with the sound of the piano...

dance......

Chu Xiaomeng closed her eyes unconsciously, as if she wanted to blend in and experience this baptism of the soul. What made her happy was that she really blended into it, as if she was cheering and intoxicated with everything. (
