"Your brother has returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Hua Shu stood up from the chaise longue abruptly upon hearing this, grabbed his shirt in front of his chest, and asked coldly, "You sent him back?"

Chu Hengzhi frowned slightly, and his voice became a little colder: "What good will it do for me to send him back?"

Hua Shu's eyes were as cold as a sword, and her voice was so cold that it seemed to freeze people through.

"Because you want to use him to threaten me."

She can no longer trust anyone now, and she will suspect Chu Hengzhi at the slightest sign of trouble.

After hearing her words, Chu Hengzhi sneered, opened her hand, and said coldly: "It seems that I am really unbearable in your heart."

Hua Shu was already very weak from the poisoning. Even though Chu Hengzhi didn't use much force, she still fell heavily on the bed, and blood began to flow from the corners of her mouth.

Seeing this, Chu Hengzhi's eyes darkened and asked, "Your injury hasn't healed yet?"

Hua Shu didn't say anything. She clutched the quilt tightly, her face frighteningly pale. If A Xuan fell into Hua Huaiyuan's hands again, he would never let him go.

Thinking of the torture that Axuan had suffered before, Hua Shu bit her lips tightly. She now regretted leaving him in Chu Hengzhi's house very much.

Chu Heng saw through her thoughts at a glance. Although he was very angry, he still explained: "Whether you believe it or not, I didn't send your brother back."

"Today he said that the house was too boring and wanted to go out for a walk, so I asked the secret guards to follow him to protect him, but he came back after a while."

After he finished speaking, he paused for a moment, and then continued, "After he came back, he locked himself in his room. I asked the secret guards and learned that he went to the Prime Minister's Mansion and saw that the person Hua Huaiyuan married today was your mother."

After hearing this, Hua Shu reached out to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth and looked up at him: "Since he has returned to the Fourth Prince's Mansion, how could he return to the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

Chu Hengzhi listened to the questioning tone in her voice, his face darkened a little, and he took out a note from his arms and gave it to him.

"This is what your brother dropped when he climbed over the wall to leave the house. Take a look for yourself."

Hua Shu took the note and opened it, but when she saw the content and handwriting on the note, her eyes turned cold and the hand holding the note kept tightening.

She would recognize the handwriting even if it turned to ashes, but she just didn't understand it.

Why did Xiao Junru know that A Xuan was in the Fourth Prince's Mansion, and why did she write him a note asking him to return to the Prime Minister's Mansion?

Confused, she looked up at Chu Hengzhi and asked, "You have so many secret guards in your house, how could my brother have received this note?"

Hearing her question, Chu Hengzhi's eyes also became a little ugly. He said in a deep voice: "I found out that the person who delivered the letter entered the mansion mixed in with the people who delivered the food."

Hua Shu was silent. She found the few words written on the note, which expressed her longing for her son, ridiculous. She really doubted what kind of mood Xiao Junru was in when she wrote these words.

But what she couldn't understand the most was that Axuan knew clearly that Hua Huaiyuan was not their father.

And their so-called mother doesn't care about them at all, so why should he go back to the Hua family?

But she was not in the mood to think about these things now. The most important thing now was to rescue Axuan from the Prime Minister's Mansion.

After thinking about it, she put on a weak expression and looked at Chu Hengzhi: "Your Highness, I'm sorry, you know, I will lose control when I encounter something about my brother."

Chu Hengzhi looked at her like this and laughed out of anger.

"You change your expression really quickly."

Hua Shu didn't say anything to contradict him. She hooked her hand around his belt, looked at him with tearful eyes, and her voice was extremely soft.

"Your Highness, please help me rescue my brother because I risked my life to save you. I will be grateful to you."

Now that she is in the palace, there is no one she can trust. If she wants to rescue Axuan, she can only ask Chu Hengzhi for help.

Although he knew that she was acting, the coldness in Chu Heng's eyes dissipated a little.

When he met Hua Shu's eyes, his voice softened unconsciously: "I can help you save him, but you have to understand one thing, this time he was not captured by anyone, but he took the initiative to return to the Prime Minister's Mansion."

"Even if I am a prince, I don't have the ability to rush into the Prime Minister's Mansion and take away the young master of the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Hua Shu was silent again. Chu Hengzhi was right. This time it was Axuan who went back by himself. He had no reason to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to ask for him.

But if he left Xuan in the Prime Minister's Mansion, wouldn't he live the same life as before?

Thinking of this, Hua Shu felt a severe pain in his chest and started coughing violently.

Chu Heng subconsciously covered his chest with his hands, his face showing pain. This Tongxin Gu really hurt the enemy by a thousand and hurt himself by eight hundred.

But he still tried his best to suppress it, so as not to let Hua Shu see it. He didn't want to be threatened by her in the future.

Hua Shu thought for a moment, then looked up at him and said, "Can you help me bring a letter to my brother?"

Chu Hengzhi was silent for a moment, then said, "Okay."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Hua Shu said, and asked Caiyue to bring pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

When Caiyue heard that she wanted pen, ink, paper and inkstone, she felt a little strange but still brought them in.

When she saw Chu Hengzhi in the room, she guessed what her master wanted the pen, ink, paper and inkstone for.

After Caiyue put down her pen, ink, paper and inkstone, she glanced at Chu Heng and walked out, closing the door and standing guard outside.

Hua Shu picked up the pen and quickly wrote a few lines. After the ink dried, she folded the letter paper and handed it to Chu Hengzhi.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Chu Hengzhi took the letter and put it in his arms, ready to leave. After walking a few steps, he stopped and said in a low voice: "Hua Shu, live well, don't let yourself die."

Hua Shu was stunned for a moment, and just as she was about to speak, Chu Hengzhi spoke before her: "Don't get me wrong, I'm just worried that your death will affect me. After all, we both have the same heart Gu in our bodies."

As soon as he finished speaking, he disappeared from the spot.

Looking at the direction he left, a smile flashed in Hua Shu's eyes. He is really a person who says one thing and thinks another.

Retracting her thoughts, she began to wonder what Xiao Junru's purpose was in letting A Xuan return to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Until the evening.

Outside the door, the eunuch shouted, "The Emperor has arrived."

Hua Shu looked out the window and found that it was already evening. She patted her head, stood up and went forward to greet him, but before she knelt down she felt her legs go weak.

Fortunately, Caiyue was quick enough to hold her up, otherwise she would have fallen to the ground in a mess.

Seeing this, Emperor Wu Ren stepped forward and held her on the bed, frowning and asking, "Why are you so weak?"

Hua Shu smiled palely and said, "I'm fine. I just didn't get enough rest during this period of time. Or maybe I'm more sleepy because I'm pregnant."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Wu Ren said, "In this case, you must take good care of her and let her give birth to a plump and fair prince for me."

Hua Shu lowered her head shyly and called out, "Your Majesty."

Emperor Wu Ren smiled and led her to the bedside and sat down. He was about to say something but the words were yet to come out.

He Zhong walked in from outside: "Your Majesty, someone has come from Concubine Hui's palace."
