Chapter 54 Chapter 54 Meeting

Chapter 54

The sun had not yet completely risen, and the room seemed dark. Lian Zhi was called back by Shen Ma.

She stood in front of the Crown Princess and said respectfully, "I went to the teahouse to get hot water. On the way, a little eunuch suddenly stuffed this thing into my arms."

"I was shocked and was about to ask, but the man said that Mr. Mu outside the palace gave it to me."

"When I heard Mr. Mu, I realized that this was the one from last time... I thought it might be something important, so I brought it back."

Lian Zhi remembered that when the Crown Princess was still in the palace, she had secretly met this Mr. Mu. The two talked alone for a while. She naturally didn't know what they talked about, but the Crown Princess got angry after she came back. She knew that this person probably had something bad in his hands that was not good for the Crown Princess.

Because the Crown Princess was furious, but she could only endure it. Wasn't she caught with a handle or something? Otherwise, if it was someone else, according to the Crown Princess's character that couldn't tolerate any sand in her eyes, they would have been dealt with long ago.

As expected, the Crown Princess's eyes were heavy, but she didn't say anything else.

Lian Zhi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at Nanny Shen, and saw that she nodded slightly, so she retreated.

After waiting for Lian Zhi to leave, the Crown Princess said to Nanny Shen, "You are not going to let me go."

The word "Du" in Du Haoyu's name is split into "Mu Tu", and the first character is taken, so he calls himself Mr. Mu. The Crown Princess just thinks that Du Haoyu is simply unnecessary.

Nanny Shen didn't dare to say anything, just lowered her head. It was a bad relationship at the beginning.

He once said that he would not enter the officialdom, but who knew that he actually changed his mind, otherwise he would not be reunited with the noble princess

as a commoner. The Crown Princess lost her temper again, and Nanny Shen was like a quail, lowering her head and not daring to speak.

No matter how angry the Crown Princess was, she didn't dare to make trouble at another critical moment. She stood up with a dark face and let Nanny Shen wait on her out the door.

The agreed place was at a sparsely populated alley. The peeling wall paint showed the desolation of the place. The Crown Princess was afraid of being recognized, so she changed into a maid's outfit. Even so, she was very careful and confirmed several times that no one followed her before she showed up.

Du Haoyu was on duty in the study for a night. Although he slept for a while in the middle, it was not enough. His eyes were red and he looked very tired, but even so, it did not damage his demeanor. He was elegant and gentle.

Shen Ma had to say that the princess had a good vision at the time.

Waiting for the Crown Princess to come over, the two looked at each other, one with a heavy look, and the other also looked impatient, as if the time of love had long gone with time.

"We agreed that day that we would never meet again. Why are you still entangled?" Before Du Haoyu could speak, the Crown Princess spoke first, speaking harshly and very unkindly.

Du Haoyu's eyes were cold, "Your Highness, I advise you to be polite."

The Crown Princess saw the warning in her eyes, and thought that this was an unusual situation, so she had to endure it and showed a serious look of listening. "Please speak, my lord."

Du Haoyu also knew that this was not the time to drag time. It was inappropriate for him, an outsider, to be alone with the Crown Princess. So he said, "I heard that the emperor's eldest grandson was missing."

"How did you know?"

Du Haoyu reminded, "Your Highness, I was on duty in the palace yesterday."

The two looked at each other, and a strange feeling of suffocation spread around. The Crown Princess's eyes gradually showed a bit of panic. She quickly lowered her eyelids to block the thoughts in her eyes.

Du Haoyu was a little strange, but he didn't think much about it. He immediately continued, "This matter involves my daughter. Please say a few good words in front of His Majesty."

The words were so polite, but Du Haoyu's expression did not look like he was begging for help.

The Crown Princess naturally understood. This was because Du Haoyu was afraid that she would make things difficult for his daughter, so he came to warn her in a hurry. Although he had hidden his fear just now, he was also a little sour. "Lord Mu is really a kind father."

Du Haoyu warned, "My queen, don't forget what you promised me."

The Crown Princess remembered the first time they met. She was so panicked at that time, fearing that Du Haoyu would reveal her past, and even thought about killing her to silence her. Who knew that Du Haoyu came for Jiang Yu.

The two quarreled fiercely.

It turned out that Du Haoyu had recognized her when he entered the capital, but he didn't recognize her until that incident happened. Du Haoyu came angrily.

Of course, Du Haoyu had no evidence to prove that Jiang Yu's humiliation in the palace was related to her, but Du Haoyu's tone was very firm, as if he had seen it with his own eyes. He only threatened the Crown Princess fiercely, saying that if something happened to Jiang Yu again, don't blame him for ignoring their old relationship.

Now, the Crown Princess certainly doesn't care about Du Haoyu, and even thought about making him disappear from this world, but looking at the two men who used to love her, one is Du Haoyu, and the other is the Crown Prince, both of them are for Jiang Yu, so they are naturally holding back a breath of anger.

Not to mention, if Du Haoyu didn't come today, the Crown Princess really wanted to throw dirty water on Du Qing, killing two birds with one stone, why not?

Seeing her acting like this, Du Haoyu guessed a lot, and finally couldn't help but say, "How did you become like this?"

I still remember how noble the Crown Princess was. Even though the two of them lived in poverty, they didn't complain at all. They smiled every day, cleaned the house spotlessly, and ate in simple pottery basins, and they didn't show any impatience.

Both of them loved reading. When the ink ran out, they used branches to write on the snow to see who wrote faster and better.

The Crown Princess's handwriting is elegant and graceful, and his handwriting is free and easy, and the two characters are matched together, which is very beautiful.

At that time, Du Haoyu thought that it was nothing more than having such a beautiful wife in life.

So before meeting the Crown Princess, Du Haoyu always felt guilty about her.

"What qualifications do you have to tell me this?" The Crown Princess suddenly flew into a rage, and her eyes suddenly turned red, thinking of all the past she had endured, "The prince was demoted, leaving me alone in the capital. My father asked me many times to bow to the witch queen, but can I? Others will not say that I was forced by the situation, but will only say that I am a person who curries favor with the powerful, not a woman who keeps chastity."

Du Haoyu frowned.

"In the temple, I lived in fear and anxiety every day, being extremely cautious, just because I wanted to stay alive. In the end, they still refused to let me go, so I had to escape into the mountains." "

When I met you, I thought that all the hardship had paid off, but who knew that you were a self-important sour scholar. Not only do you not know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are, but you only think about me living a precarious life with you every day. Do you know that you have frostbite on your hands from washing clothes!"

"You said you would be together for a lifetime, but in the blink of an eye you married my cousin. How many years is the age difference between that child and our eldest grandson?"

The Crown Princess was really throwing away the whole thing. What's more, Du Haoyu had seen her in a more miserable state.

Du Haoyu was unmoved, his eyes full of sarcasm, "If you honestly admit that you can't bear hardship, I would have thought too highly of you. Things in this world are always difficult to have the best of both worlds, but you wanted to gain both fame and fortune. You didn't want to offend the Demon Queen, and you also wanted to leave a good reputation for loyalty. In the end, you had to suffer, but it was as if everyone felt sorry

for you." "When I took you in, didn't I explain my situation clearly? If you had a better place to go, would you still follow me so unjustly? To be honest, I saved your life, and allowed you to have food and drink in the mountains, and you can recuperate, right?

Don't treat everyone else like a fool!" "You didn't let yourself be wronged, did you? Later, when you found out that the Demon Queen was gone, didn't you leave without a care? You even deliberately left a bloody handkerchief, as if you were caught by a wild beast. I guess you're not completely shameless. You should save some face for me."

"You?" The Crown Princess glared angrily.

"I have already warned you about what you did to A Yu last time. Don't think of involving Qing'er because of the matter of the emperor's eldest grandson this time, otherwise don't blame me for being merciless."

"My queen, don't force me. I only have this one child. If anything happens to her, I don't want to live. At worst, we will die together." If the past between the two people really came out, not only the Crown Princess, but also Du Haoyu would find it difficult to drag it out.

Although the Crown Princess was so angry that she almost fainted, she could only hold it back. Du Haoyu was not an ordinary person. He must have made full preparations to say that. She didn't want to cause trouble at this time, so she could only swallow this anger.

The sun gradually climbed up, and the surroundings became brighter and brighter, sweeping away the gray dawn before.

The Crown Princess's face was frighteningly pale. She was furious, pinching her handkerchief fiercely, looking at Du Haoyu who was going away, and almost couldn't help but say that sentence, do you know the true identity of the emperor's eldest grandson?

She said secretly, "Du Haoyu, when you know the truth, you will regret it."

Du Haoyu was not as calm and indifferent as he appeared. His steps were steady, but when he turned around, his eyes were a little confused. The familiar face of the Crown Princess flashed through his mind. She was very thin, even thinner than when she was in the mountains. It seemed that she would fall down if the wind blew.

Thinking of the rumored cold treatment of the Crown Prince to him, and the sickly body of the Emperor's eldest grandson, she had to worry about it all the time. Her life must have been very difficult.

But now, the two of them are just strangers.

Thinking of the Emperor's eldest grandson, Du Haoyu felt a little strange in his heart. It was strange to say that every time he saw the Emperor's eldest grandson, he always felt particularly distressed because he was too thin.

When he reached the palace gate and saw Jiang Yu waiting for him, he threw away all these thoughts and smiled gently, just like the bright morning sun, warming people's hearts. "Ayu, you're here."

Jiang Yu was relieved to see Du Haoyu and said, "I heard that the emperor's eldest grandson is missing."
