Spring Drunk Chang'an

"Why do you keep your head down, looking so hopeless? What happened to him? Did anyone bully him?" Song looked at Liu Yu helplessly.

Tears in eyes.

Liu Changan's brows furrowed. He remembered that when he met Liu Yu a few days ago, he was not so depressed. "Madam, I'll go over and take a look."

She spoke softly, and without waiting for Song's answer, she ran forward in small steps!

"Chang'an!" Song was shocked. She didn't call out to anyone. She watched Liu Chang'an come to Liu Yu and pat him gently.

Liu Yu looked up at her, his eyes shining brightly.

Liu Changan bent down slightly, moved her red lips slightly, and said something to him.

Liu Yu pursed his lips, his expression gloomy. After a long silence, he seemed to answer.

Liu Chang'an frowned and asked repeatedly. At this time, Nanny Ji, who was burning incense in the main hall, also came out. When she saw Liu Chang'an, she couldn't help but shed tears.

She cried and complained.

The three of them started talking.

"What happened?" Song was in the sedan chair, feeling uneasy. She didn't want to stay in the sedan chair for a moment. She just wanted to rush to Liu Yu regardless of everything.

But, but...

"Aunt, Chang'an is still being hunted by Liu Wenrui, but he's quick-witted and handled the situation properly. Liu Wenrui is still waiting and watching. If he finds out about your presence, he'll be desperate and wipe out Liu Yu completely!"

Xiao Chuo said softly.

Song shuddered, her heart aching with reluctance, but she still let the curtain down.

"I, let's wait for Chang'an to come back, and then leave immediately. No, we should not stay any longer!" She whispered, inevitably begging: "Your Highness, this is my aunt begging you, please help me protect Yu'er. He lives under Qu Qiutong and Liu Xiu's control. I, I am really worried..."

Tiger poison does not eat children.

Liu Xiu is more vicious than a tiger, not to mention that there is also Qu Qiutong who deeply hates the Song family.

"Don't worry, aunt. I have been sending people to secretly watch over Liu Yu!" Xiao Chuo responded, but did not mention the scene that the secret guards saw last time, when Liu Yu was forced to be paraded through the streets.

The goal is to rescue the people as soon as possible.

But Liu Wenrui and Liu Qingru are really difficult to deal with!

Xiao Chuo's sword-like brows were deeply furrowed, and her cold face gloomy.

Under the tree in front, Liu Changan listened to Nanny Ji and Liu Yu...

It was mainly about Nanny Ji’s complaints, and then she comforted them angrily and helplessly.

Nanny Ji sighed and said, "Hey, Miss Liu, the young master and I have to go back, otherwise, the mistress will be angry again!"

"The master and mistress have been keeping a very strict eye on the young master lately. I had to beg them a lot before they could take him out for a while. I can't accompany you anymore."

"We have to go!"

She sighed at Liu Yu.

Liu Yu didn't reply, but just rolled his eyes slightly, with a look of reluctance on his face.

Just a little bit.

If you don't pay attention, you won't be able to see it.

"Then you guys go back quickly. I'll come to see you when I have time." Liu Changan understood his mood and didn't force him. He just smiled.

"Hey!"

Nanny Ji pushed Liu Yu's wheelchair and left with a wry smile.

Watching their backs leave, Liu Changan clenched his fists and turned back to the sedan chair. Xiao Chuo waved her hand, and the sedan chair carried them away from Yuantan Temple quickly.

Several people returned to the carriage.

"Let's go to Duke Cheng'en's mansion. I want to talk to my uncle about something." Xiao Chuo whispered.

Song nodded heavily.

The driver swung his whip, and the carriage left Yuantan Temple and headed straight towards the Cheng'en Mansion.

Xiao Chuo rode a horse and led the way.

Song held Liu Changan's hand, and the two sat opposite each other in the carriage.

The air was so quiet that it seemed suffocating.

After a long while, Song's lips turned pale as she asked anxiously, "Chang'an, what did he say to you? Why does he look so unhappy?"

"Madam..." Liu Changan bit her lip, thinking of what Nanny Ji had just said. Anger flashed in her almond-shaped eyes. She wanted to complain directly, but she was afraid that Song Shi would not be able to bear the stimulation, so she could only reply lightly, "That's it..."

"Isn't the Spring Examination coming up soon? Young Master Liu is very clever, good at handicrafts, and skilled in mechanical engineering. He wants to take the Imperial Examination, but the Duke and Qu Qiutong won't allow it. They gave Young Master Liu to..."

Liu Changan didn't dare to describe the "parade" part in detail and just mentioned it briefly.

But Song understood.

Thinking of Wenbo taking the imperial examination, the Duke, the old lady, her, Wenrui, and even Qingru all surrounded him, worried that he might be unwell and ruin his future. Even a proud man like Liu Xiu would humble himself to the point of finding out who the examiner was, going to great lengths to find out his hobbies and what kind of writing he liked.

The entire Ningguo Mansion was working on Wen Bo's behalf.

They praised him, coaxed him, and were just about to chop off a piece of wood and put him on a pedestal, but, but...

Yu'er.

That poor child just wanted to take part in the imperial examination to fight for a bright future.

"How could this be? Liu Xiu, why do you abuse my son like this?"

Abuse! !

Liu Xiu abused him. He even broke the child's legs to prevent him from making progress. He treated him like a dog and kept him in Liujiazhuang.

Yes, Liu Xiu did not kill him.

But he just didn't kill him.

Song felt a sharp pain in her heart.

Liu Changan held her hand, not knowing how to comfort her.

Song cried all the way until the carriage drove into the inner palace and arrived at the gate of Duke Cheng'en's mansion. Xiao Chuo sent someone to pass on the message!

The prince came to visit, and the doorman hurriedly opened the door and knelt on the side of the road.

The coachman drove the carriage into the house and all the way to the second gate. Song's biological mother, Old Lady Song, eldest brother Song Chengji, sister-in-law Jin, and several nephews and nieces were all standing there.

Xiao Chuo dismounted.

"I, my son and daughter-in-law, have come to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Old Madam Song bowed deeply.

Song Chengji and Jin also lifted their robes and knelt.

Xiao Chuo held them up with her hands and said, "Grandmother and uncle, please don't be so polite."

"I have something important to discuss with you. Let's find a quiet place."

He was straightforward.

The owner of the Cheng'en Mansion, Cheng'en Duke Song Bin himself, is defending the border against the enemy. Now the only ones who can make decisions in the mansion are Old Madam Song and Song Chengji.

The third generation is too young to accomplish anything.

Xiao Chuo only found the mother and son.

Looking at Xiao Chuo's solemn expression and their daughter/sister's red and swollen eyes, Old Lady Song and Song Chengji exchanged a glance, their hearts skipping a beat, and they inexplicably felt that something was wrong.

Their faces were solemn. "Your Highness, Lan'er, let's go to the study."

Xiao Chuo nodded and walked away with her back turned.

Liu Chang'an held Song's arm, and the few of them got on the sedan chair, walked through the garden of Duke Cheng'en's Mansion, and went directly to the study in the front yard.

Old Madam Song ordered the maids and servants to leave, sent the younger generations away, and asked Jin to guard the door.

There were only five people left in the room: Xiao Chuo, Mrs. Song, Old Lady Song, Song Jicheng and Liu Changan.

Song Jicheng glanced at Liu Changan with a puzzled look. Seeing that neither the prince nor his sister said anything, he felt that this person should be trustworthy.

"Your Highness, Lan'er, what happened?"

"Why are you crying like this?" He frowned and looked at his sister.

Old Madam Song's eyes were also filled with worry.

Song could no longer control her emotions due to her mother and brother's sincere concern. She let go of Liu Chang'an, threw herself in front of her mother, and burst into tears!

"Mom, big brother, Liu Xiu hurt me. He, he exchanged my child..."
