I wish you two lifetimes

When Liu Chupei woke up faintly, what caught her eyes was the flickering candlelight in the house. She didn't realize where it was for a while, but she felt that it didn't look like her own palace or the Xie family's wing. She blinked her eyes, trying to eliminate the sudden light. discomfort.

She tried to sit up, but she had just supported the edge of the bed with her hands, and she hadn't exerted any strength yet, when suddenly there was pain in her hands, she couldn't support her hands, and she fell down again.

This alarmed the maidservant who was on duty at night, she pushed the door open and entered, "The princess is awake?"

"Water." Liu Chupei avoided her injured wrist and propped herself up with her arms. The maid immediately came over to help her up, let her lean against the bed, and turned around to make a cup of tea.

The tea seems to have been replaced not long ago, and it tastes a little warm.

"Where is this?" Liu Chupei looked at her bandaged hands, in a daze, remembering that she had seen Wang Yanzhi before, and she remembered that he saved him, "Yanzhi saved me?"

The maid looked at her puzzled.

"It's Wang Ying?" Liu Chupei immediately changed his words, a little strange, don't everyone know his other name?
The maid just smiled and didn't speak.

"What about others?" Liu Chupei kicked off the quilt and was about to get out of bed.

"Princess, why don't you look for the master tomorrow, it's already time for you to rest, the princess should rest." The maid stepped forward, not planning to let her get out of bed.

"It's so late." Liu Chupei thought about it and gave up, "What's your name?"

The maid just smiled and didn't reply, "Princess, rest early." Then she turned and left.

He has a weird temper sometimes, and his subordinates also have the same temper.

Liu Chupei lay down again, nestled under the quilt, tossing and turning, a little unable to sleep, thinking about the scenes during the day, she shrank her body and hid herself in the darkness.

She closed her eyes and fell into a nightmare she couldn't shake.

The spring of the fifth year of Ming Dynasty.

Liu Chupei, who had just changed out of her winter clothes, ran wantonly in the palace in a new suit, and Xiang Nu followed behind with her calves.

"Princess, princess, where are you going?" Shanu was out of breath and stopped running.

"You go back, I'll be back later, I went to play with Uncle Huang, and Uncle Huang brought me something good." Seeing that Xiang Nu couldn't keep up with her, Liu Chupei ran over happily, only Shan Nu was left at a loss.

Liu Chupei took the palace card and left the palace smoothly, but before she got into the carriage, she was stopped by a person who came hurriedly.

"Where are you going?"

"Xie Heng?" Liu Chupei looked at him suspiciously, "Why are you here?"

"Where are you going?" He didn't answer her, but just repeated what he said just now. Seeing her in a hurry, he didn't know where he was going.

"I have something to go out for, isn't the spring banquet tomorrow? What are you looking for me today?" Liu Chupei didn't plan to talk nonsense with him, and got into the carriage immediately, "I can't accompany you today, I have something to talk about when I come back, or We can talk about it tomorrow.”

"Why didn't you bring some people with you when you went out?" He glanced around the carriage, and there was no one else except the carriage driver.

"I'll come back as soon as I go, what to do with so many people, it's troublesome." Liu Chupei glanced at him indifferently, opened the car curtain and sat in, "Let's go."

She didn't tell the truth. Uncle Huang said that she brought good things for her today, and said that she can go alone, don't bring others, and don't tell others. Xiang Nu should not be considered an outsider, so tell me if you tell , but Xie Heng can't, if he knows, he must be clamoring to go with him.

Xie Heng stood aside, watching her carriage slowly drive away.

If he knew what was going to happen to her, he would stop her from going, or go with her.

But there are so many ifs in the world, he still watched it happen after all.

Liu Chupei thought that he could get another good thing after a while, and hummed a little tune excitedly in the carriage, "Do you know what treasure the emperor brought me?" Liu Chupei opened the car curtain and asked curiously with the coachman.

The coachman was in his fifties, and Liu Chupei had met him once or twice in the Huaiyang Palace. She knew that the coachman was someone close to the emperor's uncle, so she got into the carriage with confidence.

"The princess is joking, how does this old slave know that the prince loves the princess so much, so what he can bring to the princess is naturally very good." The coachman smiled and looked at her kindly.

"Uncle Huang treats me very well. Whenever there is something good, he always clings to me. Brother Huang is so jealous of me." Liu Chupei opened his sleeve, and on his wrist was a bracelet made of blood jade. It was given to her, she likes it tight, and has been wearing it on her hand these days.

"Of course the prince treats the princess very well." The coachman looked straight ahead, his kind eyebrows and kind eyes just now gradually disappeared, and the corners of his lips curled up coldly where Liu Chupei could not see.

The Huaiyang Palace is only half a quarter of an hour away from the palace. As soon as the carriage stopped, Liu Chupei jumped out of the carriage eagerly and ran to the mansion, "Uncle Huang! Uncle Huang!"

"Chu Pei is here?" Liu Yu was sitting in the courtyard, drinking tea and resting, when he heard Liu Chupei's call from a distance, and as soon as he finished speaking, he saw a red figure running towards him.

Liu Chupei stopped in front of him panting, her face flushed.

"What are you in such a hurry for?" Liu Yu brewed a cup of tea and handed it to her, "Things won't run away."

"I'm afraid that Uncle Huang will be in a hurry." Liu Chupei took a sip of the tea and narrowed her eyes in satisfaction.

"No rush, I'm free these two days, but I don't have anything to be busy with." Liu Yu stood up, "Let's go, I'm not in a hurry, but you can't wait." He hooked her nose.

Liu Chupei stuck out her tongue, "Uncle Huang, what did you bring back? Tell me first." She tugged at his sleeve and said coquettishly.

"What? Can't wait so much? Why don't I take you there?" Liu Yu looked at her with a funny face. After a few months of absence, her temperament still remained the same.

Liu Chupei smiled awkwardly.

Liu Yu led her to the right side of the yard.

"Uncle Huang, isn't your study on the left? What are you doing going to the right?" Liu Chupei slowed down and tugged at Liu Yu's sleeve.

"Oh." Liu Yu explained: "I haven't had time to put the things in the study, they are still in my room."

"That's it." Liu Chupei was a little strange, but followed without thinking too much.

"Uncle Huang has something good here, did you tell others?"

"No, no." Liu Chupei shook her head like a rattle, fearing that Liu Yu would not believe her, she immediately said: "I didn't tell you, brother and sister, even when I met Xie Heng when I just left the palace. he."

She looked at him proudly, with light in her eyes, as if saying, "Be good, please praise me."

Liu Yu frowned slightly, but Liu Chupei didn't notice, he turned and looked at her with a smile on his face, "Oh? Then did you tell Xie Heng that you came to the emperor's uncle?"

"No." Liu Chupei pouted, "I won't tell him. His follower follows me all day long. When the time comes to let him know that Uncle Huang has treasures here, won't he rely on me."

Liu Yu's brows and eyes relaxed, and his lips curled up slightly.

Liu Chupei thought he was laughing at her, "Uncle Huang, don't laugh, I know Xie Heng, he is such a person."

"Uncle Huang naturally knows. You two grew up together, and I also watched you two grow up. I still know your temperament clearly." He stopped, "Okay, we're here."

Liu Chupei stood at the door hesitating, the emperor's uncle's bedroom, it might not be appropriate for her to go in.

"What's the matter?" Seeing that Liu Chupei, who was still in high spirits just now, became quiet in a blink of an eye, Liu Yu turned his head to ask.

"No, it's nothing, why don't Uncle Huang take it out and I'll watch it here." Anyway, it's all about watching, it doesn't matter where you watch it.

"What? Even the emperor must be on guard?" Liu Yu frowned and looked at her sadly.

"No, no." Liu Chupei shook her head hastily, "I'm afraid it's inappropriate for me to enter the emperor's uncle's bedroom."

"Oh? Our Chu Pei has also begun to understand the difference between men and women?" Liu Yu chuckled and joked: "It seems that he has indeed grown up."

Liu Chupei blushed three points with shame.

"In Uncle Huang's heart, you have always been a child who can't grow up." He rubbed her head, "With Uncle Huang, you never have to worry about so much."

Liu Chupei's heart warmed, she let go of her worries, ran forward happily, and pushed open his door impatiently, followed by Liu Yu.

As soon as Liu Chupei opened the door, she saw a coral tree that was as tall as her inside. The sunlight from outside shone like a jewel-like luster. Liu Chupei's eyes lit up, and she kept jumping up and down excitedly.

"Uncle Huang! Uncle Huang! Is this coral tree going to be given to me?" Liu Chupei looked at him expectantly.

"Otherwise? Do you like it?"

"I like it! I like it!" She touched and looked at the left side, unable to put it down, "Uncle Huang, did you go into the sea a few days ago? How come there are such beautiful coral trees?"

"It's fine if you like it. Uncle Huang didn't go into the sea. He found it in a nearby fishing village. It's really rare to find such a complete coral tree in good condition, but I remember you mentioned it before, so I bought it for you."

"I'm going to put it next to my bed, so I can see it every day when I wake up and go to sleep." It's not like she hasn't seen a coral tree before, but it's just a small one, and it's the first time for her to be so big See, thinking that this coral tree is my own, I feel very happy, and then I can show off in front of the emperor and Xie Heng.

"I'll send someone to take the things back to you first, and I'll see you right away when you get back to the palace." Liu Yu called two guards over and moved the coral tree out.

"Be careful, don't knock." Liu Chupei followed out worriedly, muttering all the time.

Before she stepped out of the door, she felt her hand was suddenly grabbed, and she turned her head, "Uncle Huang, what's wrong?"

"You're leaving just like that?" Liu Yu raised his eyebrows, "Don't thank Uncle Huang?"

"Thank you, uncle." Liu Chupei smiled obediently.

"There is no sincerity at all." Liu Yu approached her slowly, and closed the door, his voice became lower than before, "Would you like to thank Uncle Huang, eh?"

Liu Chupei was a little flustered, he felt that the uncle at this moment was completely different from just now.
