"Wan'er...I'm not here to ask you to reveal their identities. I just...just want to see you and talk to you..." Chu Xiyan sighed and said.
"Did something happen recently?" Chu Wan'er asked with a smile.
Chu Xiyan was stunned when he heard this. He looked at his cousin and didn't understand why she asked this.
"What's the matter? It's nothing!" Chu Xiyan shook her head and answered.
"Then since there is nothing to do, why did you come to see me suddenly, so late at night? Since there is nothing to do, why did you come to see me today after not visiting me for ten years?" Chu Wan'er's two questions were like sharp tips. The sledgehammer hit Chu Xiyan hard in the heart.
"Hey... Actually it's Qianxue... Qianxue suddenly mentioned missing you tonight... You also know that she can't come here, so I came to see you with her thoughts and mine." Chu Xiyan punched her He said dejectedly on his lap.
"Qianxue? Has she been rescued? That's great. Has she become a eldest daughter now? She has been good-looking since she was a child, and now she must be gorgeous. Has Qingguo Qingcheng found her husband's family? Huh?" Chu Wan'er said while stroking her hair, as if she was about to see her niece.
Chu Xiyan looked at his cousin's expression, and his heart seemed to be bleeding. No matter how strong Chu Wan'er's heart was, she was just a woman, and here, there was nothing but loneliness. This was also a mistake. The most frightening thing about the palace is that it tortures a person's soul with loneliness.
Chu Wan'er was indeed ill, a mental illness. Although she hid it very well, she was still discovered by Chu Xiyan. How could he, as an elder brother, bear it.
"Wan'er..." Chu Xiyan called in a low voice.
Chu Wan'er was startled for a moment, then sighed. She put down her hand stroking her hair, and then walked towards the closet.
When she came to the closet again, she reached out and touched the row of clothes, and tears flowed down her face.
"Without the company of these clothes, I might have completely collapsed like them." Chu Wan'er said, touching the clothes lovingly.
The people she mentioned here were the other people in Zhidou Palace.
Chu Xiyan closed his eyes in pain. At this moment, he seemed to be looking for the emperor to ask him to let Chu Wan'er go, but he knew this was impossible.
"Nineteen years...nine thousand nine hundred and thirty days...who of you understands the pain of a person?" Chu Wan'er said as she wiped her tears.
Chu Xiyan has fallen silent. He no longer knows how to comfort his cousin, and how can he persuade others to be kind.
"I'm sorry, brother Yan, Wan'er lost her temper..." Chu Wan'er wiped away her tears and said.
Chu Xiyan shook his head. How could he care about this at this time.
"You will always be the eldest princess that Grandpa has proclaimed, and this will never change."
"Okay, let's not talk about these unhappy things. I just mentioned Qianxue. She should be in her twenties this year. Has she ever gotten married?" Chu Wan'er sat down and asked.
"She has been in the Shenwu Empire in the past few years. She just came back this year. She said she had a little boyfriend. The little guy also secretly chased her. He was quite capable. He did several earth-shattering things in the past half a year." Xiyan also had a smile on her face when she talked about Daolin.
At their level, they don't care about being a good match, so who can be a good match to the Chu family?
"Oh? Shenwu's little guy? What's his name?" Chu Wan'er suddenly became interested.
"Daolin, the way of Taoism, the forest of woods!" Chu Xiyan said with a smile.
Chu Wan'er only felt a roar in her mind, Oh my God! Isn't this his own son?
"Wan'er, what's wrong with you?" Chu Xiyan asked quickly when she saw something was wrong with Chu Wan'er's expression.
"Oh, it's nothing. I just think this surname is a bit special. Young people who can make Brother Yan think that they are outstanding must be very outstanding. Remember to bring them to me if you have the opportunity." Chu Wan'er covered it up well.
"Don't worry, when that little guy is good enough, I will definitely bring him over." Chu Xiyan didn't care about Chu Wan'er's strange behavior before. After all, there are so many people in the Shenwu Empire, how could just pick one out and it happened to be the one the Chu family was looking for? of.
"It's getting late, Brother Yan should go back." Chu Wan'er nodded and said with a very nice smile.
When Chu Xiyan saw Chu Wan'er smiling, she thought she was touched by him coming to see her, so she comforted her a few more words and then got up and left.
After Chu Xiyan left, Chu Wan'er closed the door. As soon as the door closed, she couldn't bear it anymore and fell to the ground leaning against the door.
"Lin'er...my Lin'er..." Chu Wan'er shouted in a suppressed voice, and tears fell down like a bursting dam.
"Twenty years have passed. Are you handsome? You must be handsome, as tall as your father, right? No, no... the clothes may be too small." Chu Wan'er suddenly moved towards the weaving basket as if she was crazy. Run.
"It's too small... Lin'er can't wear it..." Chu Wan'er kept mumbling, and the knitting needle in her hand began to move rapidly.
After walking out of the Zhidou Palace, Chu Xiyan stopped at the vermilion gate.
"You must give the eldest princess the highest level of courtesy. If I know that she has been wronged, you will all die!" At this moment, he no longer looked like a high-ranking duke in the empire, but more like a brother who cared for his sister.
"Don't worry, Lord Duke, we will definitely not treat the eldest princess badly." The leader of the Golden Spear Guards said respectfully.
Chu Xiyan walked directly towards the carriage without even looking at him.
As the Duke's motorcade left the Zhidao Palace, the vermilion gate closed again.
"Pass this order, if anyone dares to be disrespectful to the eldest princess, he will raise his head to see the Duke." The leader of the Golden Spear Guards took a deep breath and ordered.
"Commander! Why should we obey the Duke's orders?" A golden gun guard asked in confusion.
"I'm not following his orders, but I have a hunch that the eldest princess will leave soon." The leader of the Golden Spear Guards took a deep look in the direction of Chu Wan'er's Villa.
"Follow the order!"
In the Zhongdu Imperial Palace, Chu Wudi was practicing with his eyes closed, and a black shadow slowly walked out of the darkness behind him.
"Report to the Emperor! Duke Xiyan has just been to Zhicou Palace and stayed in the eldest princess's courtyard for a quarter of an hour. He did not talk about the whereabouts of the father and son." The black shadow bowed respectfully to Chu Wudi and reported.
"I know..." Chu Wudi replied without opening his eyes.
The black shadow bowed again, and then slowly blended into the darkness.
Chu Wudi slowly opened his eyes. His eyes were like deep galaxies, making people unable to help but indulge in them at a glance.
"It seems that something interesting is about to happen..."
