Chapter 59: Saving the Aloof Crown Prince 10

As soon as Xiao Su said that, the Imperial Study fell silent instantly.

Xiao Yunye was annoyed, "What do you mean?"

Xiao Su curled his lips: "I just suddenly thought of this."

Is this sickly weakling gone mad!

Xiao Yunye, both startled and afraid, looked at Emperor Yong Shun, "Father Emperor, your subject, your subject merely opened a shop on a whim."

He definitely did not secretly collude with General Liu.

He's not of royal birth; he only mentioned it once, yet Xiao Yunye actually threw himself into confusion.

Xiao Su let out a soft sigh, "In my previous life, I actually lost to someone like this."

Emperor Yong Shun kept a cold face, listened to Xiao Yunye's explanation, and gave no reply.

This matter can be discussed later; you may withdraw.

Su'er can move out of the palace today.

Xiao Su rose and bowed, "Your subject obeys the decree."

He turned and left the Imperial Study's main gate almost without any reluctance.

Li You immediately followed behind, seeing the Crown Prince's condition, he let out a faint sigh.

After each conversation with the emperor, the Crown Prince's mood would be terrible; sometimes, when he got angry, he would even cough up blood and faint for several days.

Xiao Su had taken a few steps when he suddenly asked.

Where is Ying Jiu?

Li You answered truthfully, "Your Highness, after getting out of the carriage, I haven't seen him."

Xiao Su immediately stopped in his tracks, recalling something.

Shortly before, after Zhao De had brought him a chair, he left the Imperial Study.

... Return to the palace.

His voice was extremely cold, his phoenix eyes congealing into ice.

——

Jin Chen was indeed speaking with Zhao De in the outer hall.

Earlier, because of the marriage bestowal, his breathing became disordered; he was discovered by the dark guards also in the Imperial Study, and he immediately went to report to the emperor, but they couldn't stop him.

Zhao De said, "We're not trying to make things difficult for you; after all, you took poison, you can understand why the emperor sent you to face the Crown Prince."

He flicked his duster.

Your Highness, do you have any actions now?

Jin Chen: "No, I've only been there for two days, I found nothing."

Hmm... we ask you, do you still remember who you are loyal to?

Zhao De narrowed his eyes, his voice soft and piercing.

Jin Chen: "Naturally, it is the most honored person in this world."

To him, the most honored person in this world is only Xiao Su, with no one else.

In that case, that's the best.

Only then did Zhao De let him go, "Go ahead, Your Highness has already left."

Here.

Jin Chen nodded.

Yet as he was leaving, his fingertip twitched slightly.

A flash of silver light passed, unnoticed by anyone.

——

When Jin Chen returned to the Eastern Palace, he saw Li You rushing over in a panic.

You still know how to come back!

Jin Chen: "?"

What tone is this.

What's the matter?

Li You, feeling choked up, said: "When the Crown Prince returned and couldn't find you, he became so angry he coughed nonstop and even coughed up a lot of blood."

He is currently resting in the Qin Gong!

Jin Chen frowned, hurriedly walking toward the Qin Gong.

Right! Remember to urge the Crown Prince to eat more! He hasn't eaten anything for breakfast!

Li You shouted.

Jin Chen pushed open three doors in succession, entered the inner chamber, and smelled a bloody odor.

Master?

By the bedside, the soft curtain drooped, faint and hazy, obscuring the inside.

Jin Chen lifted the soft curtain, only to have a familiar dagger pressed against his throat.

He offered no resistance, and didn't care at all.

He only gently and carefully asked, "How is the master's health?"

The Heart-Protecting Pill needs time to be absorbed; during this period, one must absolutely not let stagnation harm the heart.

This was his oversight.

Xiao Su did not answer, his phoenix eyes reddened, his voice icy.

Jin Chen, you deceived me.

Jin Chen shook his head: "I won't deceive the master; first put down the dagger, I'll slowly explain."

"Just say it like that."

When Xiao Su returned to the palace in the carriage, his heart was in extreme turmoil and anguish, and suddenly his qi stagnated, attacking his heart.

Clearly, he had just said last night they would share life and death.

Today he openly goes to report to Zhao De.

Jin Chen just like that… ruins his feelings?

"All right, master, don't be angry again; listen to my explanation."

Jin Chen sat in that posture and began to speak slowly.

"Indeed the emperor promised me, to come to your side, he gave me poison; each month I must report and monitor your movements."

Xiao Su hearing this, his phoenix eyes turned completely red, almost shedding tears, his arms trembling: "You really are deceiving me…"

"No, I didn't say anything."

Jin Chen pressed his arm and pulled Xiao Su into his embrace.

"That poison won't affect me; I did this so I could reach your side sooner."

Xiao Su threw the dagger down completely, offering no resistance to Jin Chen's approach.

It seemed he just wanted to hear a reason.

A reason that could convince himself.

"Then why did you approach me?"

Jin Chen gently stroked Xiao Su's slender back: "I know everything that happened afterward, and I know your story."

Xiao Su's body stiffened, incredulously lifting his head.

"The specifics I cannot say more; you only need to know that I came for you."

Jin Chen whispered softly, comforting, locking eyes with Xiao Su.

"You are the meaning of my coming into this world."

Xiao Su remained silent for a few seconds.

Suddenly he leaned forward, burying himself entirely in Jin Chen's embrace.

Although Jin Chen had only said a few words.

Yet he was willing to believe.

Originally he thought rebirth would be his lifelong secret.

Never did he expect that there would be another person who would know all his past sufferings and still wish to stay by his side.

He doesn't care where Jin Chen comes from; the world is inherently absurd.

Xiao Yunye can become a prince with a soul from another world; Yun Yihe has a bracelet that can store many things; he himself can be reborn.

As long as Jin Chen does not betray him, everything is fine.

Jin Chen's Adam's apple rolled, being rubbed by Xiao Su made him feel somewhat hot.

He slightly opened distance: "Master, quickly lie down to rest."

Xiao Su frowned: "You don't want to get close to me?"

"……No." How could that be.

"I'm just afraid I can't hold back."

Saying this, Jin Chen's voice low and hoarse, he tightly gazed at Xiao Su's phoenix eyes, a hint of lust in his eyes.

Xiao Su instantly understood.

He unconsciously gripped Jin Chen's collar, feeling awkward for a while before speaking.

"I… I am not forbidding it."

Xiao Su lowered his phoenix eyes, cheeks flushed.

Making him, with his cold nature, say such words.

Really too embarrassing.

Jin Chen chuckled lightly, no longer enduring.

He lowered his head, slowly approaching Xiao Su's cheek.

Close enough that Xiao Su could feel Jin Chen's scorching breath.

Holding his soft red lips, Jin Chen drew him near, arms embracing tightly.

While attending to Xiao Su's body, Jin Chen did not kiss long, then released, letting him breathe easier.

Xiao Su's eyes glistened, his waist went limp, powerlessly leaning in Jin Chen's embrace, panting, cheeks flushed.

"Subordinate dares to ask: may I change how I address you in the future?"

Jin Chen pressed his forehead against his, speaking softly.

"What?"

"Su Bao."

His earlobe tingled; Xiao Su felt happy inside, but his mouth felt awkward.

"I have already come of age."

Jin Chen stroked the long hair of the person in his embrace: "Here, Su Bao will always be treasure, unrelated to age."

Xiao Su gave a light hum: "Slick talk."

Yet he moved a bit closer, feeling completely safe and moved.

He hadn't felt warmth for a long time, inevitably greedy.
