Spring Courtyard Forbidden Pet

"Snapped".

The teacup broke in Li Xuan'an's hand, and the tea mixed with a little bright red blood fell to the ground.

Sancho and Yun Zhui were both startled. Yun Zhui immediately took out his handkerchief and said, "Second Master, you..."

Li Xuan snatched the handkerchief and held it in his palm, then turned and went downstairs.

Those beautiful eyes were filled with ice, and the teardrops at the corners of the eyes were filled with coldness, not to mention that the footsteps on the stairs sounded from afar like a ferocious beast attacking.

Yun Zhui saw that Sancho was still in the mood to drink tea, "Aren't you going to chase him? There are so many people, what if the Second Master gets impulsive..."

Sancho chewed some peanuts and pointed at the impenetrable wall of people outside. "Let's see if he can squeeze through with his small body."

"Who made him so close to the water that he couldn't see the moon? He even pushed the moon away. Now he knows he's in a hurry."

Yun Zhui frowned, "I don't know what's so good about Miss Ye Er? Why does the Second Master always ruin his body for her?"

Sancho's mouth twitched. "You are wrong. It was your master who was the first to offend him."

Yun Zhui was puzzled, "How is that possible? There is no one in the entire Great Zhou who has let the Second Master down."

Sancho laughed so hard that his shoulders were shaking. "Hey, what a coincidence! He really is sorry for Miss Ye Er."

Yun Zhui was confused by him and couldn't refute for a long time.

Here, Li Xuan just came down from the second floor and ran into Meng Qianru. Seeing the blood-soaked handkerchief on Li Xuan's palm, she asked anxiously, "How did the Second Master get hurt?"

Li Xuan'an was completely immersed in the coldness of keeping strangers away. Unlike usual, he was still able to say a few polite words to her and whispered, "Get out of the way!"

Meng Qianru's body stiffened for a moment, and her heart felt as if a thousand pounds of snow were pressing down on it, cold and heavy, but she still smiled gently, "No matter how urgent the matter is, it is not as important as your health."

"There are so many people outside. You can't get through now."

She chased Li Xuan down the stairs, but as soon as she got out of the door, she was pushed back by the crowd. They were all young men who were full of vigor and shouting. No one noticed that the person behind her was the Great Zhou State Master. They were squeezed together and could not hear any other noise.

Li Xuan looked up at the east corridor again, but there were so many people there that he couldn't see Ye Zhen's purple clothes for a while. Because of this, he couldn't help but think of many images of her and Dong Zhang in his mind.

It didn't matter that he thought about it, but he suddenly felt a dull pain in his chest and Meng Qianru supported him from behind.

"Yinxiang, bring me some blood-stopping and pain-relieving medicine."

Li Xuan had to step back into the threshold and let Meng Qianru apply medicine and bandage him. He had to relax a little from the anxiety in his heart because he had no other choice.

He said expressionlessly, "The princess came out to watch the fun and brought medicine with her?"

Meng Qianru's eyes and voice were gentle as water, and her fingers moved back and forth on Li Xuan'an's wrist, "Since the Second Master returned to Beijing, I have been carrying medicine wherever I go."

Li Xuan was about to pull his hand away when Meng Qianru said, "Ye Zhen has a plain gauze that looks very similar to Second Master's."

Li Xuan lowered his eyes and looked at her, his bright eyes showed no emotion at all, "So?"

Meng Qianru gritted her teeth and let go of his hand. "Second Master, you should know when to let her use your name. She is not implicated in the Ye family's affairs, and the Dong family brothers and sisters treat her very well. Even without Second Master, she will not live a bad life."

"The Marquis' Mansion should have repaid her what it owed her long ago."

The sun outside was very strong and the noise was very loud, making Li Xuan feel cold and lonely, as if there was not a door between them but a wall that cut off his connection with the outside world.

His silent phoenix eyes were unusually cold. He looked Meng Qianru up and down for a moment and said in annoyance, "Didn't I make it clear enough to the princess before?"

Meng Qianru's defense was broken, and she said in a trembling voice, "The Imperial Master must be responsible for his own reputation, for the world, and for His Majesty!"

Li Xuan sneered, "I am not as broad-minded as the princess, who always talks about the world and the people."

"They can't pay back what Da Zhou owes me."

"I don't owe you anything, Princess. You don't need to worry about my reputation. Even if everyone joins forces to push me off the altar, what can it do?"

His voice and eyes were cold, forcing Meng Qianru to take a few steps back.

He doesn't look compassionate, but more like a fickle person.

Meng Qianru had no choice but to beg him, "Second Master, please think clearly. It's not easy for you to achieve what you have today. If you persist in doing wrong, you will be a heretic."

"Your mother, who had such great talent, became a laughing stock in the Taoist world because she married Marquis Dingyuan. Are you going to follow in her footsteps?"

Li Xuan pushed her hand away, glanced at the bandaged wound, and said with disgust, "The princess talks too much nonsense."

"Second Master!"

The noisy voices drowned out Meng Qianru's heart-wrenching pleas to stay. She watched Li Xuan leave and walked towards Ye Zhen bit by bit in the crowded crowd.

Meng Qianru's fingers were creaking, and the strong resentment and hatred that surged up in her head were suppressed by her cold smile.

Ye Zhen was exchanging smoothies with Dong Yuan at this time. Dong Zhang and his men surrounded an open space at the end of the corridor to prevent the two of them from being squeezed.

Ye Zhen's nose felt cold from eating so much, and she took another sip.

Dong Zhang was worried that she was feeling unwell, so he patiently advised her, "Be careful of stomachache."

Dong Yuan kept shaking his head while holding a smoothie in his mouth. "It's okay."

Dong Zhang couldn't help laughing, "I mean Miss Ye Er, she is weak, you have to be careful."

Dong Yuan raised an eyebrow, "Brother cares so much about Ah Zhen, I am almost jealous."

Ye Zhen was a little embarrassed and pretended not to hear, keeping her eyes on the dragon boat in the distance.

Dong Zhang stuffed another bowl of smoothie into Dong Yuan's mouth, "Eat it quickly! This won't stop you from eating."

Dong Yuan winked at him, "Go quickly! If not now, when will you send me off?"

Dong Zhang coughed lightly and his ears turned a little red.

Originally, in order to express his gratitude to Ye Zhen for choosing the purse for him, Dong Zhang, at Dong Yuan's instigation, picked a magnolia hairpin as a thank-you gift. Although it was a gift of reciprocity, the gift of a purse or hairpin between a man and a woman was no different from expressing love to each other.

Dong Zhang took a deep breath and slowly walked to Ye Zhen. Her light purple dress made the skin behind her ears look porcelain white, like a lotus root. Just one look at her made him nervous even when he was about to speak.

"leaf···"

His voice was too soft and Ye Zhen didn't hear it.

"Miss Ye Er."

Ye Zhen turned around and met Dong Zhang's blank eyes. "The general called me?"

Dong Zhang somehow hid the hairpin and gave a silly smile, "That's it..."

"Ye Zhen!"

A cold and stiff voice cut through the noise and fell into Ye Zhen's ears, and her eyes froze.

Why is Li Xuan here?

Li Xu'an came over and glanced at Dong Zhang's hidden left hand. His face was extremely gloomy. He said to Ye Zhen, "Come with me."

Ye Zhen didn't react for a moment, and Dong Zhang remembered that she was unwilling to get off the car last time, so he immediately stopped her, "What can't you say here?"

Li Xuan snatched the remaining half of the smoothie from Ye Zhen's hand and threw it directly on the ground.

Dong Zhang frowned, "What is the Imperial Master doing?"

Li Xuan turned his head and looked at Dong Zhang, saying word by word, "She has a weak constitution. This box of smoothies can make her vomit in the middle of the night. What is the general doing?"

Dong Zhang choked. He was a rough man and thought that all women were as strong as Dong Yuan. He never thought that eating smoothies would upset a woman's stomach.

Seeing Dong Zhang's guilty expression, Ye Zhen couldn't bear it, "It's so hot, it's not that..."

Before he could finish, Li Xuan glared at him. He instantly realized that it wasn't that he didn't feel uncomfortable, but that he would feel uncomfortable for him. He immediately lowered his head and dared not to argue anymore.

Then he was dragged away by Li Xuan'an, pulling his sleeve.

No one knew what magic he used, but everyone who was blocking the road voluntarily made way for her, and Li Xuan brought her out smoothly.

The corner was quieter, and Ye Zhen was finally able to catch her breath. She struggled to free herself from his hand, "What are you going to do?"

Li Xuan turned around abruptly and used his body to block her in the corner. His handsome eyebrows were covered with a layer of frost, and his breath was cold. "Are the candied haws and shaved ice delicious?"

Ye Zhen felt that his tone was not right. She didn't know whether to nod or shake her head, and she was afraid that he would vomit blood again like he did that day.

But why is he so angry lately?

Ye Zhen's eyelids twitched, and she suddenly looked at him so closely, "Second Master, don't you like me and General Dong being together?"

The coldness around Li Xuan'an suddenly shattered, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, but unfortunately Ye Zhen did not catch it.

At such a short distance, she couldn't tell whose heartbeat was faster, but the torment was too unbearable. She asked again, "But General Dong and I are not compatible? Or is there something else going on?"

She was really thoughtful and even thought of a reason for him.
