Under the flower tree, Gu Nuo’er’s skin was tender and fair. She blinked her watery eyes and looked at Yun Linzhou curiously.
“Linzhou, how did you become the crown prince of the Xili Empire?”
Yun Linzhou explained with a smile, “It’s a long story. When I was young, my father’s political enemies stole me from the palace and sold me off. “I was lost outside and somehow ended up in Great Qi. Coincidentally, I was found by someone sent by Father and was taken care of.
“It was because the situation in the Xili Empire was grim at that time and I was clumsy and insensible that Father wasn’t in a hurry to get someone to bring me back.
“Now, my mother misses me too much, so she wrote a letter to look for me. I also just found out that my biological parents are the Xili Empire’s emperor and empress.”
When Gu Nuo’er heard this, her watery eyes flickered.
She didn’t say anything, as if thinking about what he’d said.
Yun Linzhou deliberately hid some details.
When he saw Gu Nuo’er’s expression, he couldn’t help but feel a little nervous.
Gu Nuo’er had always been smart.
Would she suspect anything?
Yun Linzhou continued, “Although I’m not as clumsy as before, I’m still not used to life here.
“Nuo’er, you won’t despise me, right?”
Under Gu Nuo’er’s curved eyebrows, her big grape-like eyes blinked twice.
“That won’t happen. Moreover, Linzhou, perhaps you’re not stupid at all.” When she said this, Yun Linzhou’s heart skipped a beat.
However, the child quickly added, “It’s just that your wisdom is developed later than others.
“I’m still happy for you as a friend to see that you’ve returned to normal.” Yun Linzhou heaved a sigh of relief.
He chuckled. Apart from the deep affection and gentleness in his eyes, there were also a lot of emotions.
“Nuo’er, I was originally extremely uneasy about this place, but with you here, I feel much more at ease.
“At least I have a friend now and am not alone. Don’t you think so?”
Gu Nuo’er’s voice was soft as she smiled sweetly.
“Linzhou, you’re just not used to things yet. Now that you have your own father and mother, you’re not alone anymore.
“By the way, you just said that your father’s people were raising and taking care of you in Great Qi. Are they Prince Xuan and his wife?”
There was a hint of confusion on the child’s milky-white face.
“In that case, have Prince Xuan and the others also returned to the Xili Empire?”
Yun Linzhou avoided her gaze.
He lowered his head with a gloomy expression. “My father is a decisive person.”
“My adoptive parents were dissatisfied when my father found out that they had risked their lives to save the Great Qi’s emperor.
“On the day we were supposed to return to the Xili Empire together, they were killed.”
When Gu Nuo’er heard this, she couldn’t help but look up at Yun Linzhou quietly.
Yun Linzhou lied. He knew that if he continued to talk about this matter, Gu Nuo’er would definitely find out.
He then changed the topic.
“Nuo’er, actually, I’m really uneasy and very afraid.
“Although I’ve been conferred the title of crown prince now, the court officials don’t support me.
“When I first moved into the Eastern Palace, the head palace maid sent by Mother actually entered my room in the middle of the night and almost
stabbed my heart with a dagger.
“Fortunately, the guard by my side discovered it in time. Otherwise… I wouldn’t have had the chance to see you again.”
He had used cruel methods to kill Wansi.
Gu Nuo’er would definitely find out about this matter.
Therefore, Yun Linzhou took the initiative.
When he told the story, he made himself out to be the victim.
Gu Nuo’er sighed. “It’s so dangerous? Linzhou, you have to protect yourself well..”
