C13 Hold your hands tight and don't let go

The conversation had finally ended.

Zhuo Qingyan was lying on the bed covered by a blanket, but she couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

During the entire day, he was dragged around until he was half-dead, then he was half-dead carrying an extremely heavy thing, then he worked so hard to burn his brain until he was half-dead, and finally, there was a soul-stirring night assault.

If someone were to say that this day wasn't exciting, would they believe it? Anyway, she didn't believe it.

It could be said that this was the most exciting day of her two lives!

Towards Chu Yi Chen's doubts, she was truly powerless.

The instinctive reaction of a person was not something that she could hide just because she wanted to be a fool. It was a reaction that was faster than the speed of her body and faster than her brain.

Her first conversation today had added a few more points of doubt to her mind.

If what he said was true, then even though he knew his mother from an early age, what kind of relationship did she have to make this high and mighty prince condescend to marry a fool like her?

Even if she wasn't a fool, she was still just a concubine in the Shang clan. The difference in status was too big, making her unable to help but doubt him.

Even though the imperial edict was giving him a marriage, he could just throw himself into a side courtyard and ignore it. Yet, he just let her stay in the master bedroom. He could live under the same roof as her. That was a bit unreasonable …

Originally, she was not very good at this kind of thing. Her brain was wracked with pain, but she was still unable to make sense of it. Under this kind of drowsiness, she fell asleep.

However, before she even closed her eyes for a while, she suddenly felt that someone was standing beside her bed.

She immediately opened her eyes in alarm.

He saw Chu Yi Chen, dressed in an ink-black robe with her black hair draped over her shoulders and a colorful fur mask on her face.

In the middle of the night, she was the only one with mental fortitude. Otherwise, she would have fainted from fright a long time ago.

"Move in a bit!" Chu Yi Chen raised his head towards her.

"What?" Zhuo Qingyan did not move. She decided that if he kept going like that, she would give it her all!

"There will be someone coming to check in the morning. You aren't trying to expose us, are you?" Chu Yi Chen was naturally able to see her resolute expression, and his mood immediately became better.

"Ah?" "Oh …" Although Zhuo Qingyan still did not understand, she still moved to give him a seat.

Chu Yi Chen picked up the quilt and laid down, covering her head as well. He leaned his head to the side and said, "Let's sleep a little longer. After dawn, we still need to enter the palace to show our gratitude."

"What?" "Can you not go?" Zhuo Qingyan had been beaten inside out by his words, wasn't this just exposing her secret?

"No way!" As for this matter, he was also unwilling.

"But …" "I … don't know anything …" Zhuo Qingyan helplessly closed her eyes.

"It's normal for a fool not to understand." Once Chu Yi Chen said those words, he felt a bit of regret. Carefully peeking out from behind his mask, he looked at Zhuo Qing Yan lying on the side.

However, he noticed that this girl wasn't angry. Instead, her eyes lit up for a moment, and then she nodded her head with a smile on her face.

He relaxed, turned his head, lay back, and stared at the top of the bed.

"That... Your Highness, if I were to make a fool of myself in the palace, would I embarrass you? " Zhuo Qingyan asked softly.

"Yes!" Chu Yi Chen said: "But don't be afraid!"

"Hmm?" Are these two sentences contradictory? She didn't understand.

"Weren't you trying to humiliate This King? Now that you've fulfilled your wish, let them see. The reason they're not afraid is because it's strange that you don't want This King to lose face … " Chu Yi Chen said indifferently.

"Oh …" Zhuo Qingyan responded as she quickly understood the meaning of his words. She was afraid that if she misunderstood, they would cause more trouble.

She found out now that in ancient times, it wasn't easy to grow a head on the neck. It was unknown who it was meant for, so it didn't matter.

Just like this, the two of them stared at the sky until dawn broke. Only after they heard a sound coming from outside the door did Chu Yi Chen get up.

Zhuo Qingyan did not know what to do, and could only tightly grip the blanket with both hands as she looked at him.

"Get up!" After Chu Yi Chen finished speaking, he took out a small porcelain bottle from the table on the side.

Zhuo Qingyan immediately jumped up from the bed and landed on the floor. There was a yellow square cloth in the position where she had been lying before, and he poured out the contents of the porcelain bottle.

Smelling that smell, it was blood. However, it was not the smell of human blood.

She blinked for a long time, but still couldn't figure out what it was used for. Just as she was still in a daze, she heard Chu Yi Chen say loudly:

"Someone, come!"

The door to the room was immediately pushed open, and the first two people to rush in were two well-dressed mama.

The two people paid their respects to the duo first. "Greetings to the prince and the wangfei!"

Then they rushed to the bed. When they saw the bloody cloth, they smiled at each other, picked up the cloth, folded it and put it in a box. Then, they blessed the two of them.

One of the mama said, "I ask that Your Highness and the wangfei hurry up and wash up. Today, we're going to the palace to show our gratitude …"

"This King knows, all of you can go down." Chu Yi Chen said coldly.

Perhaps these two mama also knew of his temper, so they immediately turned around and left. However, before they left, they even glanced at Zhuo Qingyan who was standing there in a daze, and nodded in satisfaction.

Zhuo Qingyan looked down at herself, puzzled.

A few servants came up to pull her, and she immediately took a step back. When she saw Qiu mama standing at the door with his head stuck out, she immediately pointed. "Let Qiu mama come, I won't trouble you guys anymore …"

Upon hearing this, the servants were all stunned. They looked towards Chu Yi Chen, who was standing to one side. Seeing him nod his head, they could only retreat to the side.

Qiu mama and Mo Yu immediately came in and helped her wash up.

When he was about to change clothes, Qiu mama went to get the wedding gown from yesterday. Zhuo Qingyan asked softly: "Is there anything else? "This dress is too long, it gets in the way..."

"Today, the King of Japan is wearing purple. Look for yourself, are there any with the same color …" Chu Yi Chen had already washed his face and was sitting in the chair. There was a servant girl combing his hair.

Qiu mama immediately rummaged through it and replied, "In reply to Your Highness, there is!"

"Then let's get changed. We'll enter the palace after breakfast." Chu Yi Chen had already combed his hair. He turned around and walked towards the back room.

While waiting for breakfast, Zhuo Qingyan was still worried about entering the palace. She didn't even have a single bite to eat.

"When that time comes, hold on tightly to This King's hand. Don't let go." Chu Yi Chen said.

"Hm!" "Hmm?" Zhuo Qingyan looked up at him.

Chu Yi Chen looked at her. "You don't need to understand. You just need to grab onto my hand and I will bring you in safely. I will bring you out safely, and you will still be able to make it in time for lunch."

"That's good …" "That's good …" Zhuo Qingyan nodded.
