After parting with Lu Mingyu, Chu walked for about a quarter of an hour and walked around the south side of the Imperial Garden.

King Qing and King Rui also came. The two brothers sat in the octagonal pavilion and talked. Prince Zhuang, Xiao Yi and Xiao Congjian were accompanying each other. Outside the pavilion, Xiao Huan, Ying Geer, Heng Geer, Third Prince, and Fourth Prince gathered together and muttered something. Chu Xing glanced around and saw his cousin next to the health pool, sitting on a stone facing the pool, motionless.

Everyone else has a companion, and he is alone. No matter how Chu Xing looks at it, his cousin may be sulking.

It was because his cousin bullied Lu Mingyu, but Chu Xing chose to help Lu Mingyu, but as his elder brother, seeing that his cousin was depressed and caused by his intervention, Chu Xing felt a little bit of self-blame. He understood Lu Mingyu's grievances, and at the same time, he also knew why his cousin did these things. Lu Mingyu hadn't been enlightened before, but now Lu Mingyu is already tall and graceful, so his cousin fell in love with Lu Mingyu as he did in his previous life.

Standing quietly for a moment, Chu Xing walked towards the health pool.

Chu Sui heard the footsteps of his brother, and he ignored it. The phoenix eyes continued to stare at a black pebble in the pool.

Chu Xing sat down next to him. Seeing that his cousin was expressionless, he didn't even look at him even though he knew it was him. He was a little angry. Chu Xing smiled gently, "Are you angry?"

Chu Sui was angry and thought that his brother would not give him face, but the brother really asked, and his stinginess also breathed out with his breath, pursed his lips, and glanced at his brother, "Brother, can you smile? You didn't see me like this just now. Those who didn't know thought she was your sister, and I was just an outsider."

They were all angry words, but Chu Xing didn't take it to heart. He looked at the rippling Chi Shui and said, "The more outsiders are, the more reasonable you need. No matter how the purse comes into your hands, she is a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl, in terms of relationships, we are younger generations, and you are so angry that you are so embarrassed to be petty with her?"

"She has never regarded me as an elder, and she never called me a cousin." Chu Sui picked up a small stone and threw it into the water, sneering. Lu Mingyu called her elder brother and cousin, how sweet it was. At the beginning, he didn't offend her. The thought fell. Looking at the rippling pool, Chu Sui suddenly remembered it. On the day Lu Si gave her her purse, she said she didn't like calling him cousin, and he asked her to call her second brother, and the little girl shouted sweetly.

Before Yueyang reunion, Lu Mingyu didn't seem to be that bad to him?

Chu Sui touched his face. Maybe Lu Mingyu refused to call him cousin because he was younger than his elder brother?

The depression in his heart was wiped out, and Chu Sui turned to his brother and told him his guess as if he was proof.

Chu Xing looked at the robe that had been clenched by Lu Mingyu and said lightly: "It's possible."

Lu Mingyu doesn't call her cousin and uncle because the two have a closer relationship. Unlike him, they are all elders.

After being echoed, Chu Sui raised his head and looked at the blue sky high. Thinking of Lu Mingyu's sarcasm when he mentioned Dong Yue's childhood and the words Lu Mingyu had severed his relationship with him in Yueyang City, he sighed and regretted touching Dong Yue'er even more. "Brother, I think A Nuan may have liked me early, so she gave me a purse and was angry again when she saw me and...Brother, you say, I'm starting to treat her well now, will she forgive me?"

Will it be?

Chu Xing didn't know, so he lowered his eyes and asked for a while: "You told her the truth?"

Chu Sui smiled bitterly, "I always treat her as a child, but I didn't expect that she could guess it."

When he was well-behaved, people couldn't help but want to hold her in his arms. He became cunning and agile and cute. If he had known that Lu Mingyu would have become so beautiful and charming, he would have known that Lu Mingyu might have secretly liked him when he was a child, but he would have fainted when he saw him holding others. Not to mention Dong Yue'er, even if he was a fairy descending to earth, Chu Sui would have kept his heart.

Chu Xing had never been moved by the woman, and he didn't know how to please a girl. He turned his head and looked at his cousin and asked, "Do you want to marry her?"

Chu Sui touched the bridge of his nose and said "yes". Lu Mingyu was the first girl to make him feel amazing, and the first girl to be close to him without doing anything. She looked extraordinary, had a good temper, and had a rare match for her family background. The more Chu Sui thought about it, the more he felt that he really wanted to marry Lu Mingyu and go home.

The man's love is just beginning to begin, and his face is unconsciously gentle, which coincides with Chu Xing's cousin in his memory. In his previous life, every time he mentioned Lu Mingyu, his cousin would smile like this and his joy came to his heart.

Since his cousin wanted to marry Lu Mingyu, according to his clever intention of pleasing Lu Mingyu in his previous life, Chu Xing felt that he could not help, and he could only give up one sentence. He looked at Chi Shui and said solemnly: "Since you want to marry, tell her the truth. Only by asking the fourth girl for forgiveness can you pass the stance of her parents, otherwise you will give up as soon as possible."

Speaking of this, Chu Sui punched the knee in annoyance.

"Bold, you dare to hit me!"

The two brothers had their own thoughts. Suddenly, the fourth prince shouted angrily from the pavilion. Chu Xing and Chu Sui turned around and happened to see the fourth prince kicking Heng Ge'er in the leg. Heng Ge'er was two years younger than him and was a little shorter. Suddenly, the fourth prince made a harsh kick when he saw it. Heng Ge'er staggered and fell to the ground immediately.

Chu Xing coaxed Heng Ge'er twice, and saw this and stood up. He was only about to rush over. When he saw that his cousin next to him also got up, Chu Xing's eyes changed and he changed to walking slowly.

Chu Sui has never liked the fourth prince. At this time, he saw that the fourth prince actually bullied his sweetheart's younger brother, Chu Sui certainly could not stand by and ran to the pavilion quickly. However, after only a few steps, Xiao Congjian walked out of the pavilion with a calm face, helped his nephew up, and asked the fourth prince coldly, "Why did the fourth prince take action?"

Brother Heng was beaten, but he didn't cry. He stood beside his uncle with his little mouth pursed, his tiger eyes wide open, full of momentum.

The fourth prince was not afraid of him, and pointed to his left arm and said angrily: "He hit me first." He is the prince, and he will hit anyone who hurts him. He was originally disliked Lu Jiaheng, but now he ran into him on his own initiative. Even if he just touched him gently, the fourth prince wanted to take the opportunity to vent his anger.

"I didn't hit you!" Heng Ge'er loudly defended himself, unwilling to be wronged.

On the side, Xiao Huan and Ying Ge'er of course spoke to their cousins, and they were really telling the truth.

There were five people in total, three of them accusing him of lying. The fourth prince was anxious and looked at the third prince who had not yet made a sound. "Third brother, he just hit my arm, did you see it too?" Knowing that the third prince was stupid, the fourth prince secretly blinked at his brother. At this time, he had long forgotten to deliberately compare his brother in front of his father.

The third prince also forgot about that, but he would not lie. He looked at his younger brother and then at Brother Heng, shook his head, "I didn't see it."

"The fourth brother is not apologizing yet." King Qing stood on the highest stairs of the pavilion with his hands behind his back and said in a deep voice.

The Rui King on the side smiled slightly, and looked at his half-brother's fourth brother with sympathy. So what? King Qing helped Brother Heng, and could please the Zhuang Prince's Mansion in a small way. What could he get if the Lu family helped the fourth prince? Not only would he not get it, but he would provoke those two big brothers.

The fourth prince has his own pride. Even if everyone doesn't help him, he raised his head high and refused to admit his mistakes: "It was him who hit me first. If you don't believe me, let's go find my father and let him judge him!" The third brother is a fool, and the eldest brother and the second brother don't like him, so he doesn't believe that his father and he is biased towards outsiders.

"Forget it, a little bit of a matter, boys will inevitably get bumpy and bumpy together. Today is New Year's Eve, please don't take it to heart." Xiao Congjian didn't want to touch Emperor Hui's bad intentions, and he smiled and pleaded for the fourth prince.

King Qing nodded and scolded the fourth prince again.

The fourth prince was holding his breath and led the eunuch who was serving him away.

Xiao Congjian bent down and patted the soil for his nephew. Confirmed that his nephew was only a little painful, he asked Xiao Huan to lead Heng Ge'er and Ying Ge'er back to Zhaoyang Palace. Heng Ge'er didn't want to play here anymore. He nodded obediently and turned to see Chu Xing, Chu Sui, and the boy showed a hint of grievance in his big eyes, "Cousin Uncle."

It was naturally Chu Xing who shouted.

Chu Xing gently patted the boy's shoulder, believing that after this, Brother Heng would understand the difference between the prince and the ordinary noble children.

"It's still early to leave the table. How about you guys playing with me?" Chu Sui bent down and smiled and said to Brother Heng, wanting to please the "brother-in-law" first.

But Brother Heng was anxious to go back and complain to his sister, but he was not familiar with Chu Sui, so he refused decisively.

~

"Sister, the Fourth Prince kicked me." There were more people in the main hall of Zhaoyang Palace. Brother Heng was sensible and did not disturb his mother. He ran to the warm room and found his sister to complain about his grievances.

After hearing this, Lu Mingyu felt so distressed that he bent down and gently pinched his brother's calf where he was kicked, "Does it hurt?"

Brother Heng felt a little painful, but he smiled and lied, "It doesn't hurt."

Lu Mingyu believed it to be true. When a person is in the palace, he cannot say bad things about the fourth prince. He can only remind his younger brother to avoid playing with the fourth prince.

Brother Heng wanted to get his sister's gentle comfort, but he didn't expect that his sister felt that he had suffered a great loss. He immediately said proudly: "Sister, uncle, cousin, Prince Qing and others all talk to me, and his cousin patted me on the shoulder. He must be standing on my side."

Lu Mingyu was stunned, glanced at the noble girls in the distance, and whispered to his younger brother: "Cousin? Which cousin?"

Brother Heng blinked his eyes, thought about the words for a while, and then suddenly realized: "It's the Duke!"

A man whom I had seen not long ago appeared in my mind. Lu Mingyu laughed in her heart. She knew that it must be Chu Xing.

When the palace banquet ended, it was almost 20 minutes later. On the way out of the palace, even if a little eunuch was illuminating the road with lanterns, he looked around at the sight, and there was no sign of which family was walking next to him. On the Lu family, Lu Zhan hugged Chong Ge'er and walked in front, Zhu followed him, Lu Rong hugged Nian Ge'er, who was also asleep, while Xiao was holding one.

It was too cold at night, and Lu Mingyu put on his head, and the fox fur on his hood blocked his left and right vision.

"Is Xiangxiang sleepy or not? My second brother is carrying you?"

As he walked, a slightly deliberate voice came from behind, which was Chu Sui.

Lu Mingyu sneered and continued to walk his own way, following the people and walked out of the palace gate, and accidentally found that the carriage from the Duke of Chu's Mansion was parked next to the Lu family. Lu Mingyu once married into the Chu family and recognized the two coachmen.

When he stepped on the wooden bench and got on the car, Lu Mingyu looked to the right by chance.

The lanterns far and near looked like stars falling on the ground. In the light of the stars, Lu Mingyu saw Chu Xing at a glance. He stood beside the carriage and just carried his own sister Chu Ying up. Chu Ying went in. He... looked at this side!

Lu Mingyuxin panicked, hurriedly lowered her head, and reached into the carriage with unprecedented neatness.

Chu Xing only saw a slender figure, which was fleeting in a flash.

The people are gone, the evening breeze blows in front of the car, and the lanterns sway in front of the car, making it even more cold and silent.

Chu Xing put aside the strange feeling in his heart and told his grandmother to sit down with his sister. After saying that, he turned around and turned around, but saw his cousin standing next to him, smiling on his face and phoenix eyes...

Chu Xing followed his cousin's gaze and saw the carriage that Lu Mingyu had just gotten on.

"Shi Qian?" Chu Xing asked in confusion. It was a cold day, my cousin was not in a hurry to go home, why are you giggling here?

Chu Sui looked at him meaningfully, and his smile became more and more mysterious. After taking the reins handed over by the eunuch, Chu Sui turned over the horse and looked at Lu Mingyu's carriage again. He felt unspeakable. The little girl was quite capable of pretending. She obviously didn't look back when she heard his voice, but she was about to get in the car, so she looked over?

The spring breeze is so proud that the horse's hooves are fast, and the heart is sweet. The cold wind on New Year's Eve has also become warm.

"Brother, let's stay together tonight?" Chu Sui turned his head and said to his brother who had just gotten on the horse.

Chu Xing looked at him again, but he still couldn't imagine that his cousin was happy about anything. But he pulled the reins and whispered.

It was the two brothers Ye who were drinking and talking, but Lu Mingyu sat in front of the copper charcoal stove with his chin. Looking at the purse in his hand, he was reluctant to make up his mind.

I wanted to burn it, but I felt a little reluctant to let go, but this reluctance has nothing to do with Chu Sui.

When it was almost midnight, the sound of firecrackers outside gradually became lively. Lu Mingyu hesitated for a while and finally threw her purse into the charcoal stove. The corners of the silk gradually curled up, and with a "pop", a small golden flame burst out. Lu Mingyu sat there, until her purse turned into ashes, and then she tightened her collar and got into the quilt to sleep.
