Chapter 461 A Weak Mind for Life

Chu Liuchen gave a meaningful chuckle.

“Thank you, Your Highness!” Shao Wanru stood up and bowed to Chu Liuchen respectfully.

Chu Liuchen elegantly waved his hand, pointed to the seat and gestured her to sit down. He said in a very easy-going way, “Our current relationship has been made clear, so helping you is helping me and I will not haggle over this! But…”

When saying this, he stopped.

Shao Wanru held the handkerchief in her hand and her heart was in her throat. She waited for the crucial turning point to come.

“I heard that Duke Xing has a good temper and seldom gets angry. Even if there is something wrong, he would just turn around and leave at most, so his reputation on the court has always been very good. I actually feel strange. Is Duke Xing’s temper really so good? Did he get angry last night?”

Chu Liuchen smiled leisurely.

Shao Wanru thought for a moment and said honestly, “He got angry yesterday. It can be seen that he was really angry.”

“Did he hit someone?” Chu Liuchen said with a smile.

“No, he didn’t.” Shao Wanru spoke frankly. Then, she added, “At least he didn’t before I left.”

“This kind of thing brought shame to the whole Duke Xing’s Mansion. What’s more, there were so many people who had seen it. It almost pointed straightly at Madam of Duke Xing, but Duke Xing did not lose his temper. If he is not a person who really has a good temper, he must have ulterior motives.”

Chu Liuchen stretched out his slender fingers and gently knocked on the table twice, and said in a lazy way.

So he was either a loyal person or a traitor. Shao Wanru understood what he meant.

She had thought about it carefully. After rebirth, some things had become clear, and she had also seen them more clearly. Everyone said that her Second Uncle Duke Xing was a good-tempered person, and he also had a good-tempered look. He was chubby and always laughed before saying a word.

However, there were many people in this world whose appearances did not match their characters, just like this Prince Chen in front of her. If someone was confused by his sickly appearance, he would die without knowing how he had died.

After this elegant and sickly Prince Chen waved his hand, there would be blood flowing like stream in the palace and those strong opponents would kneel at his feet one by one.

In her last life, she had not seen Duke Xing, but rumors had been spread everywhere that he had good temper and got along well with Madam of Duke Xing. Many Misses from aristocratic families had thought that they had no need to marry into wealth or to marry handsome people. It was fine to marry someone like Duke Xing.

There was no need to talk about the character of Madam of Duke Xing. She obviously showed happiness on the face with bitterness in her heart. Duke Xing got along well with her, but was it really because of his good temper that he could bear with everything? If so, she would not think highly of him, because those who could bear the great evil had no difference from great evil!

What’s more, she always thought that this Second Uncle was not simple. The so-called good reputation was to show people, and he plotted to achieve something bigger, right?

“He must have ulterior motives!” Shao Wanru did not conceal this and spoke out what was on her mind with a straight face.

“If you return to Duke Xing’s Mansion, help me find out who is behind him!” Chu Liuchen leaned back comfortably and said casually.

“Who do you think he had sought refuge with, Prince?” Shao Wanru could not help but ask. Since he said so, he must have some evidence.

“I’m not sure yet. Since you are mine, investigate this matter for me.” Chu Liuchen was happy to see that this matter would cause Shao Wanru enough headaches.

“I’m afraid you have to wait three years for this.” Shao Wanru hesitated for a moment and said.

“I can afford to wait three years!” Chu Liuchen raised his eyebrows and smiled. He seemed to be in a good mood, “You do not have to worry about it and you can deal with the matter in Yuhui Nunnery first. You have to pay attention to Pushan Nun, the painting teacher of Shao Yanru in Yuhui Nunnery!”

“What is wrong with her?”

“As for the specific problem, you just need to be careful. Don’t feel that you cannot stand it only after staying there for a few days. Besides, your elder sister is now in the Yuhui Nunnery too. She is not a quiet person!”

Chu Liuchen said meaningfully.

It was hard for Shao Wanru to reply his words. No quiet in Yuhui Nunnery? Did this match what she was thinking?

“I am tired, too. You can walk around on your own!” Chu Liuchen held his head with one hand and closed his eyes slightly.

“Yes, Your Highness!” Shao Wanru stood up and bowed to him respectfully. Then she turned and left, followed closely by Yujie.

After a few steps, she suddenly found that she was still holding Chu Liuchen’s handkerchief in her hand, so she turned back in a hurry.

In front of the table, Chu Liuchen slightly bowed his head and did not look well. He supported his forehead with one hand and covered his face with the wide sleeves of his robe as if he was sleeping.

Shao Wanru suddenly felt something wrong. The hand that was supporting his head trembled slightly. She took a quick step forward and grabbed his hand.

Following her hand, Chu Liuchen went limp.

Shao Wanru hurriedly reached out to hug him and she could not help but sit on the ground. Before she could sit up, she put her hand on the pulse on his right hand. She felt that the skin on his hand was as white as snow and his face was so pale that it was almost bloodless.
