Gu Junxiu wanted to pull her away, but he didn't expect her to be so strong. He hugged him tightly, and the unhappiness on his face disappeared as he asked, "What do you want?"

Chu Ying kept thinking about why Ruan Xiaonuan had not arrived yet, so after a while, she opened her mouth and said, "This servant has no one to rely on in the palace, the only person I can rely on is Your Highness."

Just as she finished speaking, the door that was initially ajar was opened. Ruan Xiaonuan looked in disbelief at the scene inside, and actually did not make any noise, but only spoke calmly, "Did I disturb the two of you?"

Chu Ying promptly let go of her hand in time, and Gu Junxiu immediately pushed her away. Seeing her at the door, she knew for the first time what it felt like to be dumbstruck.

"Your Highness, your servant will take his leave first." Chu Ying said with her face flushed red.

He unconsciously nodded, his eyes still looking at Ruan Xiaonuan who had a calm expression. Seeing that she had achieved her goal, Chu Ying walked with extremely graceful steps past her and said soundlessly, "Give up!" There was still a smug look on her face.

Ruan Xiaonuan opened her eyes wide, afraid that tears would fall unintentionally. She did not care about Chu Ying's warning and calmly said, "Miss Chu, please wait. The one who should leave is a servant." After saying that, she quickly left the Proclamation of Liberation.

When she returned to her room, she threw herself onto the bed. Not long after, she heard wailing sounds.

Gu Junxiu watched her leave anxiously in his heart, and when he saw Chu Ying still standing here, he raised his voice and said, "What are you still standing here for? Could it be that you want This King to chase you out? "

Although Gu Junxiu was in the army a few years ago and did not understand the scheming and fighting between women, he was not a fool. 's actions just now seemed to have been premeditated by him, and all of this was to cause a misunderstanding between him and Ruan Xiaonuan. He really hated this kind of scheming woman. When he looked at her, his eyes were filled with viciousness.

Chu Ying shrank back a bit and finally knew that she had offended the reverse scale. She hastily saluted and unsteadily left the main hall.

After she left, Gu Junxiu hurried outside Ruan Xiaonuan's room. However, the room was locked. He thought for a long time before letting her go, "Ruan Ruan, open the door first."

There was no sound from inside, only the occasional sound of suppressed weeping.

"If you don't open the door, I'll kick it open." Gu Junxiu said somewhat anxiously.

This door could not stop him at all, Ruan Xiaonuan knew this well. She tried her best to keep her voice calm as she said, "You can go. I want to be alone."

Afraid that she would overdo it, Gu Junxiu did not dare to directly barge in. However, no matter how much he tried to explain, there was no sound coming from inside.

"Your Highness, what happened?" When Zi Juan heard his summons, she hurried over. Gu Junxiu said a little embarrassedly, "Open the door."

Zi Juan felt that his words were extremely strange, but she still followed the instructions. She thought the door could be pushed open, but she didn't expect it to be locked. "The door is closed. Miss Nguyen should be asleep by herself."

Gu Junxiu glanced at her with his narrow and long phoenix eyes, Zi Juan immediately understood what was going on. His highness, the exalted Prince, had been locked outside the door, and he had invited her over to help. He could only try to say, "Miss, open the door, I am Zi Juan."

Gu Junxiu held his breath, and listened carefully to the sounds inside. To his disappointment, he did not hear any footsteps.

"Miss, are you asleep?" Zi Juan continued to ask. This time, a soft voice finally came out from inside, hearing Ruan Xiaonuan's hoarse voice, "You can all go back, I'm tired."

"But …" Before Zi Juan could finish her sentence, he was interrupted by her loudly, "Let's go quickly."

Gu Junxiu knew that she was being stubborn, with just those few words from Zi Juan, she wouldn't be able to open the door and vent his anger. He motioned for everyone around him to go down, but he stayed.

Ruan Xiaonuan had not heard a sound from outside for a long time and knew that they had already left. However, when she turned around, he saw a shadow at the door.

From her figure, she could tell that it was Gu Junxiu. She became anxious and wanted him to leave. However, just as he was about to get off the bed, he stopped. She sat down on the bed again and stared at the shadow on the door, wide awake. Gu Junxiu stood there until the assembly was about to start, and then left. He hadn't known all night that someone had been watching him all night.

A few days later, the palace was in an uproar. However, Ruan Xiaonuan looked gloomy, and seemed like she had no interest in anything. Zi Juan knew that she was not happy, and deliberately asked for a few very relaxed topics. She asked curiously, "I heard that the ones who came this time were the princes and princes of Dongqing Kingdom. They look completely different from us.

After she finished speaking, seeing that Ruan Xiaonuan was not listening to what she had just said, she could not help but ask, "Little Eunuch Ruan, aren't you curious?"

She answered as if waking from a dream, "Curious about what?"

"The princes and princesses of Dongqing Kingdom." Zi Juan repeated what she had said just now. Ruan Xiaonuan asked curiously.

"When they came to pay their respects before, were they also princes and princesses?" Although Zi Juan was young, she had already lived in the palace for many years, so she knew about many things in the palace.

She thought for a long time, then said with certainty, "Never."

Ruan Xiaonuan was suspicious, but then she knew the answer, and said with ridicule, "You probably want to get married with the Xiyue Kingdom."

Zi Juan asked in shock after hearing her words, "How did you know?"

Ruan Xiaonuan said very clearly, "If you didn't come for the marriage alliance, it would have been impossible to send a princess and prince over. But does the Imperial Family have any princesses that are of a suitable age? "

She had never heard Gu Junxiu talk about a princess of the imperial family, so it was even more impossible for Gu Qingcheng's children.

Therefore, it was impossible for her to be the princess who wanted to marry the Xiyue Kingdom. Most likely, she wanted to keep the princess of Dongqing Kingdom here in the Xiyue. She said sarcastically, "This Zhaoyang Palace will probably have a master."

Seeing that her expression did not change at all, Zi Juan hurriedly said coyly, "Your Highness only has Miss in your heart, even if you have a master, it would be the same."

If she did not see what happened between him and Chu Ying that day, she would have believed him. He said lightly, "This isn't something a small figure like us should be concerned about." She had forgotten the fact that she was the king of Ling Yue Kingdom. She did what she had to do and did what she had to do.
