The abandoned concubine is charming and charming, and the sickly prince breaks his waist

The man in black stiffened for a moment, but still wanted to leave. Hua Shu called out again.

"Xiao Juzhu."

This time, the man in black stopped, sighed softly, turned around and took off the cloak on his head.

"cousin."

Hua Shu was just suspicious at first, but now that she saw clearly that it was really Xiao Juzhu, she was also a little surprised.

But she didn't show it on her face, instead she said with joy: "Cousin, it's really you."

Xiao Juzhu smiled gently and said, "Yes, it's me."

Hua Shu personally poured him a cup of tea and looked at him puzzledly: "Cousin, since you have been in the palace all the time, why don't you come to see me."

Xiao Juzhu paused for a moment while holding the tea, and subconsciously looked at her. After meeting her gaze, he quickly lowered his head and stammered:

"I was afraid of affecting you, so I didn't come to see you."

Hua Shu clearly saw the tenderness in his eyes. She frowned slightly and asked, "Then why did you come here tonight?"

Xiao Juzhu finished the tea in one gulp, put down the cup, and said, "I heard that the emperor would not come tonight, so I wanted to come and see if your poison had been cured. I didn't expect that you hadn't rested yet."

Hua Shu frowned even more tightly. It was not that she didn't want to believe Xiao Juzhu's words, but his words were full of loopholes.

If he really wanted to see me after I went to bed, why would he come in before the lights were turned off?

Or maybe it was because she herself was a liar, so she doubted everything they said.

Putting away her thoughts, she pretended to ask tentatively: "Cousin, how did you know I was poisoned?"

Xiao Juzhu's eyes were a little evasive as he said, "I... I just happened to catch up."

"Is it really just like that?" Hua Shu's voice became a little more serious.

Xiao Juzhu glanced at her and said helplessly, "Well, I saw your people in the palace rushing to the Imperial Hospital, and I was a little worried so I came to check on you. I happened to find that you were poisoned, so I gave you the Hundred Poison Pills I had on me."

Hua Shu's expression eased a little when she heard this, but she still felt it was too much of a coincidence.

Seeing that she had doubts, Xiao Juzhu did not explain too much, but pretended to hesitate and said: "Cousin, I heard a piece of news recently, and I don't know whether I should tell you."

Hua Shu poured herself a cup of tea, held it in her hands and played with it, saying, "You say."

Xiao Juzhu sighed and said, "I heard that my uncle announced that he would bring the fourth son back to the manor because he was not feeling well."

Hua Shu listened without saying anything, her expression remained the same, but her grip on the teacup tightened a little.

Xiao Juzhu had been observing her actions. Seeing that her expression remained the same, a hint of confusion flashed across his eyes. Could it be that she no longer cared about Hua Jingxuan?

Hua Shu took a sip of tea, looked at him and smiled, "It's good to go back. I'll feel more at ease if someone takes care of him."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Juzhu's confusion deepened. He wanted to say something else, but he saw the veins bulging in her hand holding the teacup.

A smile flashed in his eyes. It turned out that she didn't care about Hua Jingxuan, but she didn't believe in herself.

But it doesn't matter, he has plenty of ways to make her believe in himself.

After thinking about it, he stood up, looked at Hua Shu with a gentle smile, his eyes full of affection, and said: "Cousin, it's late, you are still injured, take a rest, I will come to see you in a few days."

Hua Shu was about to ask him something, but suddenly remembered something and nodded, "Okay, be careful."

Xiao Juzhu nodded and walked forward to rub her head like he did when they were children. Halfway through his hand, he suddenly remembered something, so he withdrew his hand, smiled, turned around and disappeared into the room.

Looking at the direction he left, Hua Shu frowned, wondering if it was an illusion.

She always felt that Xiao Juzhu had changed a lot, even to the point of making her feel a little strange.

Before she could figure it out, Chu Hengzhi appeared in front of her with a gloomy face.

"You sent someone to bring me a letter and asked me to come to you at night, just so I could see you having a secret meeting with someone?"

His voice was frighteningly cold, as if covered with a layer of ice, sending chills down one's spine.

He was already upset because of today's events, and then he saw the note that Hua Shu asked the eunuch to give him, asking him to come to the palace in the evening because she had something to tell him.

He didn't even have dinner. As soon as it got dark, he entered the palace through the secret passage. Unexpectedly, he saw a strange man in her room.

The two of them were chatting and laughing, which made him feel like he was being fooled.

Seeing that he was angry, Hua Shu stood up and walked to his side, stretched out her fingers and hooked them with his, and said in a charming voice: "Every time I see Your Highness jealous, I can't help but want to kiss Your Highness."

After she finished speaking, her lips were already touching Chu Hengzhi's lips.

Chu Hengzhi frowned, pushed her away, and said with disgust: "Don't disgust me."

nausea?

Hua Shu couldn't help laughing. She wiped her lips with her fingertips and said, "When we were doing something more intimate, why didn't Your Highness say it was disgusting?"

Chu Hengzhi had completely lost his patience: "What on earth do you want to say by calling me here?"

Hua Shu stepped forward again and hooked his belt and said, "Your Highness, you know that I am timid and cannot stand you talking so loudly."

Chu Hengzhi laughed angrily. He stretched out his hand and pinched her chin, saying, "Do you want me to coax you?"

Hua Shu nodded, put her hand into his clothes and said, "Of course, that woman doesn't want to hear her lover say sweet words."

Lover? Saying sweet words?

Chu Hengzhi pushed away her lips and snorted coldly: "I am not your lover."

Hua Shu was amused by his appearance. She took his hand and sat down at the table. She poured him a cup of tea herself, sat on his lap, and fed the tea to his mouth.

"You are not my lover, what are you doing in my room in the middle of the night?"

Chu Hengzhi snatched the teacup from her hand, drank the tea in one gulp, and sneered, "I'm not the only one who can enter your room. Could it be that they are all your lovers?"

Hua Shu put her arms around his neck, blew a breath of hot air into his ear, and said coquettishly, "Your Highness, no one will like a man who is too petty."

Chu Hengzhi pulled her hand off her neck and said impatiently, "Tell me why you called me here today."

Seeing him so bored, Hua Shu sighed, then leaned into his arms and said, "I called you here today for two reasons. First, I want you to check on Yun Cairen, who was just appointed by the emperor today. Second, I heard that the emperor suspected that the assassin that night was your man. I have a way to help you remove the suspicion."

After hearing her last words, Chu Hengzhi was stunned for a moment, then asked: "How do you know he suspects me?"

Hua Shu punched him on the chest and said, "Of course I am thinking about Your Highness all the time, but Your Highness came and gave me a cold shoulder."

Chu Hengzhi was about to say something, but before he could finish his words, his face turned cold and his arms around Hua Shu's waist tightened a little.

Hua Shu noticed something was wrong, frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"

Chu Hengzhi said in a low voice: "There is someone outside the window."
