"clear."

Dong Xu just answered firmly and calmly.

Maybe he is indeed dull, but Dong Xu understands, he knows what he wants to do.

The emperor simply wanted him to be impartial and do things that others dared not interfere with.

He was alone, and his only family members were his younger brother and a parrot.

The emperor promised to protect his brother, so what does he have to fear?

He was not aware of the complex web of forces, but he knew that someone was hostile to His Highness.

Since you are an enemy of His Highness, then you are an enemy of him.

He likes His Highness.

Your Highness is special, unique, reassuring and trustworthy.

Even though he knew that His Highness had many men, even though he knew that His Highness was in a complicated situation, even though he knew many, many things about His Highness, he still felt that he liked His Highness.

I like her smile and like listening to her talk a lot.

I want to see her often, have dinner with her, and watch the locust flowers bloom and fall together.

Dong Xu was not afraid of anything. He was not afraid of the chaos in the imperial city, the party struggles, or the conspiracies and intrigues.

He now has the support of the emperor, and he would be happy to do so as long as he can help the emperor clear up the chaos and overthrow the enemies of His Highness.

Dong Xu felt that being loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and eliminating traitors was what a subject should do.

Dongxu felt that making Her Highness happy and overthrowing the obstacles for her was what he wanted to do.

"Loyalty is what I should do."

"Being loyal to His Highness is what I am willing to do."

"I'll wait for His Highness to come home."

Dong Xu said lightly, but the emotions in his eyes were full and sincere.

Xiaoyu felt an inexplicable soreness in her nose, and she stroked Dongxu's cheek with a wry smile.

"Idiot." Xiaoyu cursed in a low voice, with heartache in his eyes.

"Wait when I get home."

After a long silence, Xiaoyu finally raised her head and spoke gently.

Everything is left unsaid.

……

On the other side, Jiang Hao and Xiao Yun'er were playing with ice cream in the carriage.

Xiao Yun'er was having fun, but Jiang Hao was the only one who seemed absent-minded.

He looked out the window from time to time, but could not see the prince.

"What is the relationship between the Grand Tutor and His Highness?"

Jiang Hao just stared at the ice cream and asked in a nonchalant tone.

But the boy's thoughts were too obvious, his eyes were full of concern.

Xiao Yun'er saw it all and just smiled barely perceptibly.

"It's none of your business." Ice cream raised his head and said in a very arrogant manner.

"Hey! You bird!" Jiang Hao was angry and turned around to sulk by himself.

"If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me. I don't really want to know."

"I don't really want to know, please you are really pretending."

Jiang Hao muttered to himself, but he was extremely anxious in his heart, he really wanted to know the truth.

"Tsk, you're just pretending. You still have the nerve to accuse me of pretending. It's obvious that you really want to know."

Ice cream said sarcastically, very naughty Lululu.

"I won't tell you, I won't tell you~"

Jiang Hao was so angry that he just turned his back and stopped playing with the ice cream.

"Well, since you asked sincerely, I will be merciful and tell you~"

"The idiot has nothing to do with His Highness." Ice cream said playfully.

Jiang Hao quickly turned around with a look of surprise.

"Really?" He asked, still a little suspicious.

The ice cream kept the secret a secret, hummed playfully, and said slowly:

"It doesn't matter now, we can fix it later... hehehe."

He stopped talking halfway through his sentence, and Jiang Hao got up anxiously and asked them to speak quickly.

"Lululu, I won't tell you ~ you'll be so anxious."

After Xuegao finished speaking, he hid behind Xiao Yun'er in a despicable manner and refused to say anything.

Dong Xu, on his side, remained silent with Xiao Yu.

It was not until Xiaoyu said take care and turned to leave that Dongxu hurriedly grabbed her.

"What's wrong?" Xiaoyu paused and asked very gently.

"I like your highness."

Dong Xu mustered up his courage and remained silent for a long time before he spoke.

A pair of hands held the little fish tightly and did not let go.

His tone was particularly firm when he said this.

Xiaoyu was a little dazed and silent for a long time. She just looked at him, her eyes and eyebrows were unspeakably gentle.

"I like Ao, too."

Xiaoyu responded with a tender voice and curved eyebrows.

The howling autumn wind outside the city was cold. It had rained last night and the puddles on the road looked like small lakes.

Each lake is like a small world. The little fish stared at the puddles in a daze, not knowing what to say.

She knew in her heart that this was Dong Xu's intention after careful consideration, and she was extremely happy.

I also understand the preciousness of this word "like".

But she really didn't want it to be now.

I don't want to say it in such a situation.

I don't want him to get involved in this mess just because he likes me.

Otherwise, if anything happened to him, how could Xiaoyu forgive herself?

"Will Your Highness still marry me?"

Dong Xu just asked so directly and expectantly, his eyes shining brightly.

Xiaoyu looked at him in a daze for a long time.

"We'll get married if you want."

"As long as you are willing to stay with me."

Xiaoyu said gently, with unstoppable sadness in her eyes.

"But, you have to understand, I didn't marry you because you promised the emperor to help me."

"I married you because I said that as long as you like me very much and are willing to stay with me."

"Ah Xu, whether you agree to the emperor or not, we can be together."

"So will you still agree to the emperor?"

Xiaoyu asked.

Dong Xu did not hesitate and said with certainty: "Yes."

Almost out of the blue.

"I will wait for your Highness to return and marry me."

After Dong Xu said this, he hugged Xiaoyu tightly, with excitement in his eyes.

"Okay, wait until I come back."

Xiaoyu also hugged him gently and stroked his back.

In fact, Xiaoyu felt that it was a bit too fast and he was a little uncomfortable with it.

She didn't know whether Dong Xu really understood and was ready.

This relationship developed too quickly and too directly.

Dong Xu has a very straightforward personality, although slow but very direct.

Xiaoyu counted carefully and found that she didn't meet Dongxu very often.

But the relationship did develop quickly.

She simply stopped worrying about it because she really liked Dong Xu.

As long as Dong Xu really thinks it through and makes a decision.

Then, she would be very happy to marry Dongxu.

This kind of straightforward relationship was the first time Xiaoyu had experienced it.

She didn't say anything more, but just hugged Dong Xu's neck very warmly and gave him a long kiss.

Dong Xu was stunned. When he came to his senses, the kiss was already over.

He was just savoring the remaining warmth of her lips, and his face suddenly turned red.

"Wait for me to come back!" Xiaoyu smiled brightly and touched Dongxu's head.

She turned around and got on the carriage, leaving Dong Xu stroking his lips and sinking into the world.

Your Highness... kissed him! ?

Dong Xu felt his heart beating wildly at this moment.

It was as if he was about to jump out, he was so eager to go with His Highness.

It seemed as if this heart no longer belonged to him.

It has never beaten so fast before. It is beating so fast just for His Majesty.

Dong Xu thought that this heart belonged to His Highness.
