Time travel is risky, and love requires caution

Pei Chufeng was completely defeated by the Sixth Prince's domineering act of asserting his sovereignty. He didn't know how he returned to the mansion, and he stayed at home for several days claiming to be sick.

Pei Chufeng used to be weak and often fell ill for a few days. But in the past year or so, Pei Chufeng has become much healthier, his spirit and complexion have improved a lot, and even his eyes are brighter and more energetic than before. He hasn't been sick for a long time, what happened this time?

The Southern Emperor and the Crown Prince had already sent people to visit him, and the Second Prince had also come to his house to see him, and he had reluctantly agreed.

When A'ran went to see him, although he didn't find any specific symptoms such as headache, fever, cough or wheezing, he looked very depressed and aggrieved. The servants said that he had not eaten much in the past few days and had hardly spoken. He just sat there in a daze all day and didn't allow anyone to disturb him.

Because of her arrival, Pei Chufeng had to be more alert to deal with it. Seeing him trying to hold on, Ah Ran was very disappointed and scolded:

"Third brother, you look so unlike yourself."

“What should I look like?”

"Where's your courage to ask the witch doctor to be your teacher when you were a kid?"

"I do have courage, but some things can't be accomplished with courage alone."

A'ran knew that Pei Chufeng was suffering from a heart disease this time. It would be strange if Pei Chufeng could remain indifferent since the seventh princess's fiancé had come to him.

She knew that her third brother liked the Seventh Princess, and if she were a man, she would like him too. But fate played tricks on her, and she was already taken. How hard did she try to encourage him and the Seventh Princess? But how did he send her there? Not only was she unmoved, she even scolded her. Now she is being rude, right? Too late! If he had proposed to the Northern Emperor in time, he might not have gotten the Sixth Prince of Ximo's turn? It would have been better to get himself a chance to compete openly, right? Now, it's even worse, and he's not even fighting for the right reasons.

And given his third brother's personality, he would only feel sad silently and would never do anything shocking to steal someone's love. So, he can only slowly relieve his pain by himself. It's useless for others to worry about it. I hope time can heal him. Oh~

Pei Chufeng felt very aggrieved these days, the kind of aggrieved feeling of being unable to advance or retreat.

Looking back at the development of his relationship with the Seventh Princess, it can be divided into four stages. At the beginning, because of his father's advice, he always reminded himself to keep a distance from the Seventh Princess, but he still couldn't resist the Seventh Princess's attraction. He couldn't tell what attracted him, maybe because of the mystery. He always felt that the Seventh Princess had many secrets, and a kind of beauty that seemed to be born with innocence and scheming, publicity and calmness that conflicted with each other.

Time and again, he used the seventh princess' new identity to cover up his true feelings: stepsister, junior sister, so his approach to her was all due to his responsibility as a brother, but later, he could no longer deceive himself.

When did he start to like her? Was it when they first met at the Chunrong State Banquet? She deliberately put on an ugly makeup that day, and every time he recalled it, he couldn't help laughing. And he didn't know why he gave the important jade pendant given by his master to the Seventh Princess, who he had only met once.

The master later said that in the Crow Country, that kind of jade pendant is given to the one you love, so did he fall in love with her at that time? If we count the fireworks at the Flower Fighting Festival, he has already expressed his feelings to her twice.

It really fits the saying "Love comes from nowhere, but it grows deeper and deeper."

His second brother had laughed at him for not understanding the relationship between men and women. Has he understood it now? So how can he close his mind?

He is really pathetic. He doesn't know when he fell in love, and he doesn't know when to stop loving.

At this moment, Lu Cheng, who was riding his horse at full speed towards Ximo, was also feeling very aggrieved.

He pretended to be sick and sneaked out of Ximo. It has been four days since he came out. He only slept for five or six hours in between. He still has to travel for another day and night to get back. He is now exhausted, but he still dare not stop to rest, for fear of being discovered if he returns too late.

What on earth is he trying to achieve by doing all this? That Ling Qiqi guy is so damn annoying.

What was the first thing I said when I saw him? "Why are you here?" Listen, how impersonal.

He came all the way here, and if she didn't throw herself into his arms and burst into tears, she should at least welcome him with a smile, right? But she said, "Why are you here?" It was as if he was superfluous. Was she dissatisfied with him for interfering with her love?

What a bastard, he is even more ungrateful than a wolf. He has been worried about her for the whole year.

How did he spend the past year? Every day felt like a year. Not only did he have to work on his career, but he also had to worry about Ling Qiqi's life and death.

When he was on his way back to Ximo, a secret guard came to report that the Seventh Princess was ill, but the cause of her illness was unknown. Later, the news became less and less optimistic, and he impulsively wanted to return to Beiwei several times.

But reason told him that he didn't know medicine, and going back would not only be useless, but would make the problem worse. He couldn't reveal that he had secret information, nor could he let people know that the Seventh Princess was his weak spot.

So he could only endure it and keep asking people to inquire about the latest situation of the Seventh Princess.

After he arrived at Ximo, he was as busy as a white-collar worker, even worse than the illegal 996 work schedule, because at least there was a time to get off work. And except for sleeping, he had almost no free time for himself.

King Ximo is old, but it can be seen that when he was young, he was a decisive, rough and bold man. Although his body is not as good as before, his momentum is still the same.

The Sixth Prince was sent to another country as a hostage by King Ximo at a young age. Perhaps he felt that he owed a lot to his youngest son, so out of a desire to compensate him, he was very generous to Lu Cheng and gave him a very grand and excellently located mansion in Shangyi, the capital. The scale of the mansion exceeded that of other princes and could even be compared with the prince's mansion back then.

In addition, King Ximo also granted him two fertile fiefs, which together covered a hundred miles. The rewards of people, money, and materials were not to be mentioned. For a time, the Sixth Prince was the most popular in the entire Shangyi. The mansion was crowded with people from all walks of life who came to visit and make friends with him every day.

The second prince was very close to Lu Cheng. He took good care of him in various matters and introduced some "usable" people to him.

But Lu Cheng knew in his heart that the Second Prince did not really regard him as his own. There was no sincerity in the face of huge interests. They were all outsiders.

What's more, there is no greater and more tempting benefit than being the head of a country.

The third prince and the fourth prince are now in an alliance. Compared with the other two, the third prince is more cunning. On the surface, he does not make enemies with others, but he is cruel and ruthless behind the scenes. He has death warriors but no close friends. He is the biggest threat to the second prince.

The fourth prince was hot-tempered, impulsive, and often fond of fighting. However, some tribesmen liked to make friends with the fourth prince, who had a wide network of contacts. Although he had loyal followers and close friends, he was not well received by King Ximo because he had no strategy.

The former may be called a king, while the latter can only be a general. The two can be said to complement each other.
