Chapter 1295: Chapter 1290: Chu Heng Is in Danger

Chu Yifeng hesitated in steps, Xiao Qingyu took a deep breath, suppressing the dissatisfaction in his heart, and knelt on one knee, “Commoner Xiao Qingyu, greets Your Highness.”

“Oh.”

Chu Yifeng raised an eyebrow, looking at Xiao Qingyu’s face, he indeed had an impression. He remembered this man was someone whom Chu Yihan had brought from Yangzhou City.

But inexplicably, he disliked this man!

When he disliked somebody, he enjoyed playing dirty tricks, thus he did not ask Xiao Qingyu to stand up, so even with severe injuries, Xiao Qingyu could only kneel.

Xiao Qingyu, however, did not mind these formalities and kneeling, he asked, “I wonder, Your Highness, have you been well these past days?”

Had he given Rong Sheng a hard time again?

Chu Yifeng sneered, “What? Now even the Xiao family presumes to impose on Your Highness?”

Xiao Qingyu nodded, neither overbearing nor subservient, “Commoner wouldn’t dare, it is merely out of concern, after all… Your Highness knows the doctor of this commoner.”

“What doctor? Your Highness does not know.”

Chu Yifeng was completely unfazed, pressing Xiao Qingyu with his imposing aura to bow even lower.

This gesture would increasingly aggravate the injuries on Xiao Qingyu’s body. Xiao Qingyu bit his lip in pain, “It’s… a female doctor.”

“Your Highness does indeed have numerous female servants by his side, but Your Highness favors only the beautiful women, not the ones who flaunt their skills. There are no female doctors.”

Having said his piece, Chu Yifeng turned to leave, but then paused and added a remark, “For insulting Your Highness, you can kneel here and reflect.”

Punishing him definitely.

For making him endure so much nonsense!

He had just seen off his daughter and now his mood was particularly foul!

Xiao Qingyu’s legs fell down, kneeling rigidly on the ground, the pain all over his body nearly numbing him, but what ached his heart more was… Chu Yifeng.

He truly forgot Rong Sheng.

Oh Rong Sheng, you bore this man children and entangled with him ceaselessly. You drugged him to erase your memory; for what pain do you endure?

The moonlight was cold, with a frost-like whiteness all around, making the world seem embraced by a chilling cold.

Su Yingxue stood by the window, melancholy and unable to sleep.

Chu Yihan, already resting little, sensing no one beside him, put on his clothes and groping in the dark, suddenly wrapped his arms around the person lying on the window sill.

“Ouch!”

Caught off guard, the man’s arms were already tightly wrapped around her waist.

Despite having been married for so long, with children of considerable age, every time Chu Yihan held her, Su Yingxue’s passion was aroused, not for anything else but because of the deep affection Chu Yihan had for her, like a warm hot spring from the mountain stream.

Su Yingxue blushed in his embrace, muttering softly, “You were obviously asleep, no lights were on, yet you still managed to hold me!”

Was this man like her mother wrote in her letters, had he fitted something on her… like a tracker?

Chu Yihan, smelling the gentle fragrance on her, spoke infatuatedly, “The loneliness of a solitary pillow, leaving me alone, how do you expect me to rest?”

“Hmph, I think, it’s desire on your mind, isn’t it?” Su Yingxue was quick-witted, her mind involuntarily conjuring up certain images, as lately, they barely had the time or energy to do much…

Now coming over to her again.

Probably for lack of touch.

Chu Yihan’s chin rested on her shoulder, caressing her smooth, fine skin, “If you put it that way, you’re not wrong, Su Yingxue.”

Unsatisfied desire.

He admitted.

Su Yingxue’s cheeks grew even more flushed with shame, and even though she knew no one could barge in here and no one would hear him speak, her chest still burned fiercely. “Go to sleep! There’s a lot to do tomorrow!”

Lately, he had been so busy he hadn’t even had time to eat properly, let alone steal a tender moment with Chu Heng after sending him off.

What else did he want to do to her?

“Right now, there’s something very urgent we must do.”

Chu Yihan turned her over, his deep eyes staring intensely at her, his tone taut.

“What is it?”

Su Yingxue’s mind went blank for a moment, and by the time she regained her senses, Chu Yihan had already lifted her horizontally and was walking towards the bed.

“Chu Yihan, are you crazy! You’re so tired right now…”

“I am not tired.”

“You’re talking nonsense! You’ve only slept for four hours today.”

“I can manage.”

“…”

In a carriage traveling outside Hangzhou City, two little ones clung to the window, sighing at the moon, “Ah… I really miss Daddy!”

“Ah… I wonder if Mother misses Heng’er.”

Chu Xi and Chu Heng exchanged glances, seeing each other’s pitiful expressions before they simultaneously heaved a deep sigh, “Ah! We are so pitiful!”

Children separated from their father and Mother truly resemble drifting weeds, swaying back and forth in this carriage, uncertain of when they will return to Jiang Du City.

Chu Heng and Chu Xi were very restless all the way, and just at this time, the carriage behind them had someone even more restless.

Yu Lu had fallen asleep in the jostling carriage, but Leng Shuqing could not sleep. Her dark, deep eyes constantly watched the carriage in front, focusing on the two small figures leaning on the window frame.

The more she watched, the fiercer the flames of jealousy burned in her eyes.

Following Chu Yihan on this journey, she had endured cold treatment and suffering just to stay by Chu Yihan’s side.

Even though Chu Yihan imprisoned her, never allowing her to meet anyone, let alone see him!

But staying by his side was good enough!

In her lonely days in the deep palace, she always had some thoughts to while away the time.

But now, Chu Yihan had sent her directly back to the palace.

He left the palace with Su Yingxue and her, and now he had sent her back alone; how could she face her grandfather and family, how could she face the people in the harem?

Could she just let her Imperial Consort’s face be lost like that?

In her heart, Leng Shuqing felt more and more aggrieved; she had almost forgotten that she was the knowledgeable and sensible legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister’s residence, feeling that she was no different from Su Yingxue when driven by jealousy.

She was also a person, with desires, and she thought… of possessing Chu Yihan all to herself!

In this jealousy and aggrievement, she was tormented furiously all night long. The next day at dawn, Mo Qi led them to rest in Anshan.

From here to Jiang Du City was only a few hundred miles, it would take two days to arrive, and it was also the place where Mo Qi was supposed to handover duties with Lin Sisi.

But they arrived before Lin Sisi, who was leading the army and couldn’t match their pace.

Mo Qi then took the two children down, allowing them to play outside the carriage while waiting for Lin Sisi’s arrival.

Leng Shuqing also got out of the carriage, her cold gaze falling on the jubilantly shouting Chu Heng.
