He reached out to take the inner garment that He Cui handed over and put it on. The outer garment had just been used on his body and got wet. He Cui got up and ran out to get Wu Qing another set of clothes.

Helian Han turned around and came back, holding a quilt in his hand. He raised his eyebrows at the sitting Wu Qing.

Without saying a word, he wrapped the person in a blanket, bent down and picked him up.

She was held again, like a princess. Even though she was rolled up like a worm, Wu Qing still laughed out loud.

Helian Han lowered his eyebrows and looked at Wu Qing with a gentle gaze. Such a gaze on a cold and handsome face like Helian Han...

Wu Qing pulled a hand out from under the quilt and touched the scar on the man's eyebrow. She had always cared about this scar, but only at this moment did she understand why. "You are too handsome. Who can stand this?"

Helian Han didn't know why he was so angry, and asked a question that made him regret it, "Scars are also handsome?"

"Handsome! He looks extra handsome with a scar. Your Highness, believe it or not, the first thing I saw when I saw you was this scar. Tsk, how come he has such a handsome scar." Wu Qing started to bombard him with nice words again.

I was thinking: He's so handsome. It's already unfair if I have a little resemblance to him in my eyebrows and eyes. Even the position of the scar is the same.

Helian Han had an impulse to let go and throw the woman to the ground, but when he thought about how she almost fainted just now, he had to grit his teeth and endure it.

He Cui took her clothes and ran back in a hurry. She saw Helian Han bowing hastily and about to run away. She was worried that Wu Qing was still in Dong'an Hall, and she did not look up at her master, so she did not see Wu Qing.

Helian Han watched the little palace maid leave and reminded her, "Wait at Xifeng Pavilion."

He Cui heard it and couldn't disobey, so she looked towards Dong'an Hall.

Wu Qing turned around when she heard Helian Han talking, "He Cui, go back!"

He Cui was startled when she heard this. She looked up and met Helian Han's eyes. She immediately lowered her head in fear, "This servant deserves death..." What had she just seen? Let her think about it...

He Cui stood up again and followed Helian Han.

Wu Qing started to get naughty again, "Your Highness is so handsome, Your Highness is so handsome, wow! Your Highness's chest..."

Helian Han wanted to throw the person away again and took a deep breath.

The man took two deep breaths, and his chest muscles pressed against Wu Qing. Wu Qing reached out and poked him, "Your Highness..."

Before she even uttered a word, Helian Han already knew what she was going to say. Unable to bear it any longer, he shouted, "Shut up!"

Wu Qing's ears were buzzing because of Helian Han's shout of "Shut up", but it finally quieted down.

He rubbed his ears and was thinking about what to say.

Helian Han suddenly said: "You can go to Prince Yi's mansion and be the housekeeper."

Wu Qing, who was still rubbing her ears, stopped moving her hands. She heard the seriousness in Helian Han's tone.

He wanted to protect her, but what was she to protect?

The beauty hidden in the golden house? The bird trapped in the golden cage... It's not that Wu Qing looks down on herself. After all, in this era, no one can treat women as independent individuals.

Helian Suxue can do it, simply because she is a royal daughter, and an unmarried royal daughter, so no one can objectify her, but there is no one else in Dayu.

Helian Han wanted to take her in for the same reason, because he didn't believe she could exist in the world as an independent personality.

He felt that she had to depend on somewhere. If the palace was not suitable and she was always hurt, then she should depend on Prince Yi's Mansion.

Wu Qing doesn't want to depend on anyone.

At the same time, she also saw another side of Helian Han. His icy shell was silently melting because of her.

She didn't know why he froze himself, but she could feel that he was sealing himself up.

Wu Qing suddenly thought of Helian Han who was frozen in the water that day. Was he, a prince, bullied by someone?

In a flash, scenes from palace fighting dramas and novels that I had watched before, where the unfavored prince had no mother's protection, was ostracized by his brothers, and even bullied by the eunuchs, all replayed in my mind one after another.

He was so engrossed in eating melons that he forgot his own situation.

Because of her own imagination, she felt sorry for Prince Yi, the former ninth prince of the great Yu Kingdom and the current Prime Minister.

But she didn't know that Helian Han had frozen himself, not because of external factors such as being unpopular, but simply because of himself.

He felt that he did not deserve warmth, but he unconsciously leaned towards warmth.

He envied her enthusiasm, and something indescribable was quietly taking root in his heart.

"No, no, no." Wu Qing shook her index finger, smiling warmly. "It wasn't easy to get in, and I don't want to leave the palace so easily. Besides, where would I get a gift for His Highness if I left the palace?"

Helian Han felt that he had given in again and again. He didn't want to be a concubine, nor did he want to be a housekeeper. He wanted to see what this person was pursuing.

Having lost her previous life, Wu Qing has already decided to boldly confess her feelings to the one she likes! It doesn't matter if she's so bold as to be shameless.

As for Helian Han, a prince who has been brought up with rules since childhood, let's see how he responds.

It was only a few steps away, and they were about to return to Xifeng Pavilion. Wu Qing said, "Your Highness, I forgot something..."

Helian Han was thinking about who to send to help Wu Qing get it.

Wu Qing said, "I forgot to tell Your Highness that Wu Qing loves Your Highness."

Helian Han never knew that he had such good self-control and he still hadn't abandoned anyone.

The sparks and lightning along the way stunned Helian Han, who could only walk quickly into the western-style room, put the person on the couch, turn around smoothly and walk away without stopping for a moment.

Wu Qing was very happy. She had successfully forced Helian Han to leave, and she could change her clothes openly.

He Cui watched Helian Han leave, breathed a sigh of relief, and took Wu Qing's clothes to help her change.

Wu Qing looked at He Cui's wet clothes and wrapped herself in the quilt, looking like she didn't want to come out. "I'll lie down for a while, you change first!"

After returning to the East Bedroom, Helian Han felt something was wrong the more he thought about it. Was Wu Qing hiding something from him?

He had clearly sent people to investigate her. She had a simple background and a clean background. Her growth process could also be verified by others. So what could have gone wrong?

In fact, there is a point in his heart that he doesn't want to touch. He has always wanted to avoid it, but today it is almost unavoidable and he is about to collide with it.

He knew that this woman's enthusiasm moved him, but this woman wanted to be an enemy of the entire Dayu. Could he stand by her?

No!

As Prince Yi of Dayu, he has too many things to protect, and he cannot stand by her unconditionally.

Helian Han took a deep breath, but he still wanted to escape for a while longer if he could.

This was not the first time Wu Qing fainted. The imperial physician had examined her pulse and found nothing wrong, but she remained calm, which meant she knew why.

Helian Han rubbed his face. He wanted to talk to her, right now, but what excuse could he find to go to Xifeng Pavilion where she lived so late at night?
