Drunk Bamboo

Chapter 316 Husband and wife quarrel

"When does the prince plan to return home?"

Chaoyang watched his own prince pacing back and forth for a long time. He even stopped his daily martial arts practice and walked for several hours, scratching his ears and cheeks.

He really couldn't bear to watch it anymore. He either had to leave the palace to find the princess or continue lying down and pretending to be injured. What was the point of walking like this?

Hua Qinfeng was too concerned about his reputation. "If I don't go back, no one will care about me. What's the point of going back?"

Chaoyang was speechless.

"Your Majesty, don't you remember what the last words were before you passed out last night?"

Hua Qinfeng was stunned and pretended to have lost his memory. "What did I say? I was knocked unconscious by the smoke and I don't remember anything."

Didn't he say that just to appear more genuine?

Does he really have to recuperate alone in the palace?

The original plan last night was to take advantage of the small flame on the altar to fall into Fu'an Palace, and while the fire was out, enter the palace openly to search. Unexpectedly, after discovering the mechanism of the Bauhinia Garden rockery, a palace maid poured candle oil like crazy, burning the entire rockery, along with the Lin Hai Xue Lian hidden inside.

There was no other way. The entire Fu'an Palace was burned down, and he was worried that the matter would be investigated and would implicate the imperial soldiers, so he could only come up with this self-torture tactic.

So that his father can put down his suspicion of him.

Another thing is that he wanted Xie Yuzhu to worry a little and ease the deadlock of these days.

But he waited all night and all morning, but the person he wanted to see never showed up.

"Your Majesty, it was you who said not to worry the princess and not to tell her that you were injured."

"If I don't let anyone tell, then no one will tell? Does Changfeng Tower eat for free? Can't we get such a small piece of information from the palace?"

Hua Qinfeng is going crazy!

How come no one can understand his thoughts?

Isn't everyone smarter and more suspicious than him? How come everyone is stupid now?

Chaoyang was ashamed, "My Lord, you are such a scoundrel."

"Where are you going? I'm a patient, I'm injured, and my father told you to take good care of me, otherwise he will punish you severely..."

As soon as Hua Qinfeng turned his head, the person disappeared.

Chaoyang walked out of the door without looking back.

"Let the palace people take good care of you. I'm going back home!"

Hua Qinfeng stamped his feet in anger, "Chaoyang! You are so bold!"

A familiar person in the palace is gone, so why is he still staying here?

He hurried to catch up.

The little palace maid who happened to be delivering the medicine came in and hurriedly called him, "Your Highness, you can't get up yet. The imperial physician has told you to rest more!"

Hua Qinfeng looked guilty, "Tell my father that I'm fine now. I'll be back home first."

"Your Majesty!" The little maid tried to stop him but couldn't, her face showing sorrow, "What if His Majesty asks about it..."

Another maid smiled and said, "The prince is anxious to return home to see the princess. Your Majesty will not blame you."

The little maid was relieved now, and said with envy, "The relationship between the prince and the princess is so good."

……

Hua Qinfeng caught up with him, but saw Chaoyang standing still.

"Chaoyang, why don't you run away..."

He wanted to make a mockery, but when he saw the person in front of him, he was suddenly speechless.

To his surprise and joy, the person he was waiting for finally showed up.

However, his expression didn't seem very happy.

Xie Yuzhu approached slowly and said calmly, "Your Highness is as light as a swallow and walks as fast as flying. It seems that he is fine."

He continued to be stubborn, "Little Mars, how could you hurt me..."

Xie Yuzhu turned around and left, not wanting to listen.

Hua Qinfeng was surprised, "Why did you leave?"

"Your Highness, are you not planning on returning home? Are you going to live in the palace forever?" She stopped and turned her back to him.

Hua Qinfeng took a few steps forward and asked, "Are you here to pick me up?"

Xie Yuzhu raised her voice significantly, and said angrily, "Your Highness, is it possible that your eyes have been damaged by smoke? Can't you see such an obvious thing?"

I felt secretly happy, as the depression I had been feeling for the past few days was finally relieved.

Hua Qinfeng stuck to her, "My head hurts, my feet hurt..."

Wuqing threw away the heavy objects on his body and said coldly: "Go on your own."

Hua Qinfeng almost fell down and complained, "Why are you so fierce?"

"You can leave if you want. If you like the palace, just stay here. I'll take Chaoyang back."

Seeing her ruthless and cold, Hua Qinfeng also got angry, "Xie Yuzhu, you were the one who hid it from me first, and I had no right to hide it from you!"

Xie Yuzhu's face turned even colder. "But I was standing right in front of you, and you didn't come back all night."

Hua Qinfeng was stunned after hearing this.

It took a long time for him to come back to his senses, and he said blankly: "Yuzhu...are you concerned about me?"

Chaoyang shook his head, "The princess is really angry now."

Leaving him alone, Hua Qinfeng was depressed again, "What's going on? I'm still angry? How come she has a worse temper than me?"

Chaoyang's voice came from afar, "Please take care, Your Majesty."

Hua Qinfeng was stunned, "You... one by one..."

"Wait for me!"

On the carriage back home.

Xie Yuzhu didn't speak, and Hua Qinfeng didn't speak either.

This journey was like heaven and hell.

Finally arriving at the palace, Hua Qinfeng followed Xie Yuzhu into Changfeng Courtyard as usual.

He was stopped outside as soon as he entered.

"Your Highness hasn't been to Changfeng Courtyard for a long time. What is he doing here? Ask someone to move all of Your Highness's things away so that he doesn't have to come looking for clothes in the middle of the night."

"Looking for clothes in the middle of the night?!" Hua Qinfeng opened his eyes wide, "I came here to find you!"

He calmed down and stared at Xie Yuzhu, feeling angry and aggrieved.

"You know I come here every night, but you still pretend not to know, Xie Yuzhu, you are such a liar!"

Xie Yuzhu felt a little guilty, "Didn't the prince lie to my father and my mother? He also lied to me?"

"You...you..." Hua Qinfeng clenched his fists and lowered his voice, "You are always right."

Xie Yuzhu opened his mouth.

Hua Qinfeng spoke first, "Didn't you say that husband and wife should share joys and sorrows and work hand in hand? I remember everything you said and taught me to do."

"To please my father, to please my mother, to read books, to study literature, to think twice before doing anything. Even if my head hurts, I still have to think again. Only if I think more than them can I do better than them, not fall into danger, and not need you to bother saving me again!"

Hua Qinfeng raised his eyes, "I remember what you said. Why don't you remember it? Why do you have to bear it alone?"

Xie Yuzhu felt even more guilty after hearing what he said, "It's not... that's what you think."

The tall body suddenly pushed her against the door frame, with an oppressive aura.

Hua Qinfeng said, "Xie Yuzhu, you investigated the plague without telling me. You went to Zhang Xinghe instead of me. Do you care about me? What about the hand in hand you said?"

"Then, does the prince need to risk his own life?"

How anxious she was when she heard that he was injured.

"Yes, you are right. I was just pretending. I was deliberately trying to make Father worry. But..."

He lowered his head and placed his forehead against hers.

A warm breath came from Xie Yuzhu's forehead, making her feel tingling and numb, going straight to her heart, like a deer beating its heart's fluttering.

"But the person I really want to see is you. I'm hurt, why don't you come to comfort me? I just want you to look at me."
