Spring Drunk Chang'an

Is he a close friend?

He must be a close friend!

At first glance, Xiao Chuo's words sounded like a normal inquiry, but upon closer inspection, they were somewhat...

So sarcastic!

Liu Changan frowned slightly, narrowed his almond-shaped eyes, glanced at him carefully, and replied vigilantly, "Well, I wouldn't call you a close friend, but at least we're a small acquaintance."

"We're friends now!"

"Besides, Your Highness, it was I who met Brother Yu together. How did we get to know each other? You know it very well!"

Wasn’t it because of the sound of “suicide by the river” that I first met Liu Yu?

It was clearly she and the prince who rescued the person together.

Why are you still asking?

Liu Chang'an was full of confusion, but looking at the prince's stern face and deep eyes, he felt as if he had some vague understanding.

Just, I feel a little embarrassed.

Her almond-shaped eyes moved.

Seeing this, Xiao Chuo remained expressionless, but his fingertips couldn't help twisting, as if stroking something. He took a deep breath and suddenly clenched his fist.

"When you first met Liu Yu, it was indeed you and Gu together, but later, you met him frequently and became very close."

Still using a sarcastic tone.

Just, just...

Why does the air feel a bit sour?

Who knocked over the vinegar bottle?

Liu Changan wrinkled his nose and looked around with his almond-shaped eyes in confusion. Who noticed the vinegar jar there?

Is it a phantom smell?

She pursed her lips and subconsciously explained, "Your Highness, Yu Ge'er and I met a few times later. It was all, I guess, unintentional. We bumped into each other when I was out and about with Xiaoyue. It was fate, and we gradually became acquainted."

"Although Brother Yu is quiet and taciturn, he is not difficult to get along with. He has never looked down on my status as a servant and has treated me kindly. I also want to make friends with him."

"We're, we're pretty close."

Liu Chang'an raised his face, a hint of guilt appearing in his almond-shaped eyes.

She lied to His Highness.

Her acquaintance and friendship with Liu Yu was definitely not an 'accident', it was all intentional on her part, but it was not easy for her to say this to the prince. Should she say: I suspect he is my biological brother?

It doesn't make sense.

So she kept it a secret.

Xiao Chuo heard her words clearly and saw her guilty conscience. However, he did not doubt anything else, but focused his whole body and soul on Liu Changan's last words.

"We're quite close!"

Who is close?

How close?

How close are the little girl and Liu Yu, the two of them?

Xiao Chuo knew clearly how guilty her aunt felt towards Liu Yu and how much she liked the little girl. If her grandparents had not stopped her, she would have wanted to adopt the little girl as her own daughter!

Why did grandparents try to stop me?

They both admired the little girl, and had said time and again that her temper and personality were very endearing. She looked just like a child from the Song family...

So, instead of recognizing the little girl as the Song family's 'adopted daughter', are you planning to recruit her as your daughter-in-law?

Liu Yu has a handsome appearance and is taciturn. Although he didn't pass the imperial examination, he has talent for the same degree as Mo. He has a small acquaintance with the girl, but they get along well. If his leg can be cured, he would be a good match!

Is that what they mean?

No! !

He also worked hard, hoping that Liu Wang'er would make a great contribution so that he could be put in charge of Zhan's affairs and promoted to a fifth-rank official. Only then would the girl be able to participate in next year's draft!

He was thinking about how to use his father's fear, the Prince of Yan's arrogance, and the Ningguo Mansion's backstabbing to secure a position as Crown Princess for his little girl, but in the end...

She got 'close' to Liu Yu!!!

Xiao Chuo felt as if she had been severely shattered by something.

Thick black mist was rising from his entire body.

There was a sour smell in the fog.

"Aunt Gu treats you like her own daughter and loves you like her own daughter. Liu Yu is her son!"

You two are fake siblings, you can't be together!

I won’t allow it!

Xiao Chuo's brows were furrowed.

He was so jealous that he didn't even call him "Brother Yu'er" but called him by his real name.

"I, I..." Liu Chang'an looked at Xiao Chuo blankly, not understanding why he emphasized this?

Does she know that Yu'er is the lady's biological son?

Or did she help find it?

So, Your Highness, what is he trying to do by saying this? Could it be...

"Well, Your Highness, I, I come from a poor family and dare not accept the love and respect of the lady and become her daughter."

When he thought about the fact that half of her body was covered in blood and she continued to practice with Liu Xiu, Liu Changan felt that she was dirty.

No wonder Brother Yu'er feels so inferior and gives up on himself.

Who can feel comfortable with a bastard father like Liu Xiu?

It's because she doesn't deserve it.

"That's not what I meant!" Xiao Chuo said in a deep voice.

I don't want to hear her say this.

The little girl will stand shoulder to shoulder with him in the future. She is not worthy of being the Crown Princess? Who is worthy?!

There is no one in the world more worthy than her!!

Xiao Chuo made the decision unilaterally.

"Then Your Highness, you suddenly said this..." What do you mean?

Liu Changan became more and more confused.

From the second time she met Liu Yu, she had already determined that he was her brother, and all the interactions between them were filled with family affection.

She naturally couldn't understand the prince's, well, subtle feeling, somewhere between jealousy and defenselessness.

"Just tell me what you want to say. Why beat around the bush and leave me so confused?"

"You, you don't want me to get along with Brother Yu?"

She thought about it for a long time, but still couldn't figure out the prince's implication.

Just ask directly.

Yes!

I am alone!!

Xiao Chuo almost couldn't control herself and wanted to answer like this, however, thinking about the little girl's self-deprecating words just now - it was because she didn't deserve it.

If he agreed, the girl would think too much, thinking that he was talking too much and that he looked down on her, and that she was not worthy of being friends with the young master of the Duke's Mansion.

Love!! It will make people unconsciously become more thoughtful and cautious.

Even the crown prince of the current dynasty is no exception.

Even though I was shouting in my heart that I wanted the little girl to stay away from Liu Yu, and it would be best if she never met him or got close to him, and that he only had me in his heart and eyes, however, the thought of the little girl making her sad because of her inferiority complex made me feel sad.

Xiao Chuo swallowed back the words that were about to come out of her throat.

"You, ah, forget it, if you don't understand then you don't understand."

"You'll understand someday."

"Come with me to get a doctor."

Anyway, the little girl and Liu Yu were only ‘close’ to each other!! But she was truly loyal and devoted to him.

He knew the little girl much earlier than Liu Yu.

The little girl even jumped into his hot spring, and the two of them met each other frankly!

Can Liu Yu compare?

Can he?

Xiao Chuo held her head high and walked forward with her hands behind her back.

The confusion in Liu Chang'an's eyes became even more intense. She stared blankly at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, as if he was inexplicably complacent. She tilted her head suspiciously.

Your Highness, this is, this is?

What's wrong?

Liu Changan didn't understand.

However, since His Highness didn't want to talk anymore, she couldn't force him. She could only lift her skirt and catch up with him, feeling confused.

The two soon arrived at the front yard.
