Chapter 61

Zhou Gongyu decided that Xiaoman was not strong enough to do so, and did not force her to return to the palace, but asked Jiang Ruoru and Zhou Dingheng to help persuade her.

Xiaoman heard what Xu Yan said. She had no shame to keep it, but she was afraid that she would have nowhere to leave the academy. She kowtowed to Shi Xueqing while crying, so she was not driven out.

After Xiaoman found out, he did not show any mercy and gave her some money and let Xu Yan kneel outside the yard all night.

Zhou Gongyu failed to persuade Xiaoman to return to the palace, so he had to find time to come to the academy to see her.

When I came back, I happened to see Xu Yan kneeling outside the yard, her face was pale and almost fainted.

When Xu Yan saw Zhou Gongyu, tears fell in an instant.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince...please, I know I'm wrong..."

A few days ago, his mother finally changed her mind with Xiaoman, but she began to be dissatisfied with Xiaoman again during this period. She was picky about Xiaoman's words, and there were rumors in the court and the government, saying that he was attracted to a disaster and was addicted to women and wasted political affairs.

Several literati were even more verbal, and they spoke Xiaoman like the kingdom witch.

Jiang Susi, who were so serious and serious, were all fighting with others, blushing.

Although he had cured those people, it was the most difficult for everyone to speak.

Xiaoman was not at fault, but was guilty of possessing a treasure, because she was the only one in Zhou Gongyu's Eastern Palace, and he moved in without any name. However, he seemed a little relaxed in politics, so someone blamed her.

Zhou Gongyu looked down at Xu Yan, his eyes also made him look a little more exploratory.

Thinking of the stupidity and ambition that the woman in front of him could not hide, he had a thought in his heart.

"Release your face."

Xu Yan quickly wiped away the tears and raised her face happily to look at Zhou Gongyu.

Compared with ordinary people, Xu Yan is quite pretty, but no matter how she dresses up, she can't reach the side of the disaster... Although she is young, her eyes are shallow and her mind is stupid and vicious.

Seeing the joy on her face, Zhou Gongyu nodded as if she had grabbed some golden branch and said, "Good to help you."

——

Xiaoman returned to the room from the school and happened to see Zhou Gongyu's arm cut open, and blood flowed into the brown medicine juice.

His skin was fair and his arms were even more dazzling.

He always comes to the academy when he finds time, and is busy dealing with political affairs. Even if he is forced to keep his spirits up, he cannot cover up his fatigue.

When Zhou Qiaoyu saw her coming, she pressed the wound down and said in a warm voice: "Come and drink medicine, I won't bother you."

In the past few days, Lian Jiang Si came to persuade her... She said that she should not be angry with the prince.

She is not only herself, but also a member of the Jiang family.

Since he had something to do with the royal family, he had to worry about the face of the prince and the reputation of the Jiang family.

Xiaoman didn't drink the medicine, took the ointment, sat beside him, and applied medicine to him, while calmly saying, "I will go back with you, don't do this... Ruoru told me that you are dealing with someone in the court because someone in the court questioned my identity... I don't know what happened in the court, and it's hard to tell whether it's right or wrong.

But you are the crown prince of a country, don't blame your ministers for me..."

"A court official who is truly sensible will not say these words. No one is perfect, and it is not a strange thing to have occasional omissions. Some old ministers are dissatisfied with me, so they just took the opportunity to attack.

How can my own affairs be involved in you?

Not to mention that I did not make any mistakes, I really did it. It was just my own actions. It was incompetent to push it to a weak woman."

When Zhou Gongyu spoke, Xiaoman was looking at his wound.

Over the past period of time, blood scabs were also drawn on his originally tight and smooth arms.

It seems so familiar that it is sad.

Her bandaging movements were lighter again. Zhou Gongyu noticed them, his eyebrows were lowered, and he said gently: "What are you doing with a bitter face?

Really don't want to go back with me?"

"Don't you feel it hurt?"

Her heart felt a little stuffy and her eyes became sore.

Not because of anything else, just feel sad.

Zhou Gongyu turned sideways, put his arm over her and patted her gently.

"Compared with you, this wound is nothing."

He really feels sorry and regretful.

He disliked Han Shi's weight in Xiaoman's heart, but he also thanked Han Shi for saving her life in the snow.

Otherwise, in this life, there will be no see in the vast land of the sky.

Xiaoman looked at Zhou Gongyu's eyes, as if he was looking at his former self through him.

I was once the cheap self who was as low as grass and as low as dust.

She looked at Zhou Gongyu's face full of guilt and love, and suddenly laughed, and tears fell down.

Zhou Gongyu seemed at a loss when facing her tears, and even ignored her own injuries and went to wipe her tears.

"Brother Chaoyu."

His hands froze and he stared at her in a daze.

"I'd better have it been earlier."

She lowered her head and remembered that she was in the prime minister's mansion. When she looked up, she could see the covered wisteria, and the sunlight shone in through the gaps of the flower vines.

Turning around, Zhou Gongyu next to him looked hazy and high in the light, and even the outline was out of reach.

When he was the prince, he was not her brother Gongyu.

“I really liked you at that time.

But things in the world are so difficult to accomplish.

When I like you, I feel sad even if you frown, but if you like me, you can watch me die.”

It turns out that when I think about these things, my eyes will inevitably be sore.

"I was full of you at that time, but now I can't do it anymore.

You have always been calm in your actions, and you have to measure the importance of your life when encountering things, and my life can also be measured.

Even if I go back to the East Palace this time, what can I do? No matter how hard I force you, I will not have a good result."

The more she spoke, the calmer she spoke.

Zhou Gongyu's fingers placed on her shoulders slowly tightened, and after a few trembling, he slowly let go.

"It's not too late now. I like you. As long as you wait for a while, you and I can still go back to the past, so how can you say it's a forced effort?"

Rather than saying that he is comforting himself, he is not so much for Xiaoman to hear this.

Even if he is forced, he will not let go.

This time, Xiaoman didn't feel angry about Zhou Gongyu's words.

She has no regrets anymore.

Even if I haven't been together, I don't feel regretful.

She hopes that when she thinks about it in the future, she will still have more joy than resentment.

At that time, she lived in a daze. Zhou Gongyu was like a beam of light. When she met her, she didn't want to let go.

After so many things happened, she also doubted whether Zhou Gongyu was as good as she thought, maybe it was just an illusion.

If we compare, Han's second brother treats her better than Zhou Gongyu.

Actually, there is nothing like that, it’s just that the timing is different.

For Zhou Qiaoyu, this is the case.

At that time, such a person happened to appear, and he left an indelible trace in his heart.

Only after parting can we realize that the love is profound.

When you think about it, you will be hurt, and when you think about it, you will be hurt.

"Wait for me," Zhou Gongyu put his forehead against her shoulder and held her fingers.

"Don't give up so quickly, don't give up on me..."

She lowered her eyes and said nothing, and then patted him on the shoulder for a long time.

"Go back to the palace, otherwise the Empress should scold you."

"Then you and me."

"good."

——

When I returned to the East Palace, I couldn't help but look at Xiaoman when I saw Xiaoman's palace servants. I didn't dare to say a few words until the chariot disappeared.

Everyone in the East Palace knew Xiaoman and almost took care of the princess. They also saw the prince's care for her with their own eyes, so how dare they talk too much?
