Did the Seventh Prince attend court today?

Poor?

The eldest prince stared blankly at Meng Shi.

Undoubtedly, this woman still looks pitiful, but beneath her seemingly weak and innocent exterior lies a heart dirtier than the mud in a sewer.

The one who is truly pitiful is his younger brother.

It was his younger brother who risked his life to protect him.

He's so young, he's only just been found...

"Waaaaah..."

The eldest prince, his shoulders trembling, covered his face and sobbed uncontrollably, "Give me back my seventh brother...give me back my brother!"

He suddenly sprang to his feet, lunging forward to grab Meng's neck, his voice hoarse as he growled, "Since you keep saying you want to die, then come and die with me for Seventh Brother!"

Caught off guard, Meng was pushed down onto the muddy grass, and the feeling of suffocation returned.

She instinctively wanted to escape, but forgot to struggle when she met the man's ruthless gaze.

The man who was dejected and dejected just a moment ago was now more terrifying than someone who wanted to kill him. His gentle, smiling eyes were now bloodshot and his refined and handsome face had become ferocious and distorted. If no one stopped him, he would really strangle the woman beneath him to death.

The Pixiu, rushing back and witnessing this scene, was so frightened that its tail stood on end. [Oh dear, this is going too far! No, I have to hurry back and tell the boss!]

It dared not delay, and with a swift movement, it turned around and flew away.

Inside the cave, a deer was happily munching on a roasted sweet potato.

The freshly roasted sweet potato has a wrinkled and cracked skin with a slight oozing of sugar. When you gently break it open, you'll find a soft, sweet, and honey-colored flesh inside. The aroma is so enticing that it makes your mouth water. One bite, and all the wounds in your heart are instantly soothed.

After a busy afternoon and half the night, the deer were already starving. At this moment, a fragrant, soft, and sweet roasted sweet potato would be the perfect treat.

【Oh no! Oh no! Eldest brother, your royal brother has gone mad!】

Suddenly, the anxious voice of the Pixiu came from outside the cave.

The sweet potato in her hand fell to the ground with a thud, rolled twice, and was covered in dust. Without a second thought for the potato, Youlu stood up and asked urgently, "What happened?!"

Even from some distance from the cave, the Pixiu began to roar at the top of its lungs. Upon approaching, it plunged into the cave, throwing itself into Youlu's arms and shouting, "[The Crown Prince has gone mad! He's trying to strangle Meng Shi! Eldest brother, you must stop him!]"

You Lu was shocked. "How could this be? With the eldest prince's temper, it would be a miracle if he beat Meng Shi up, how could he want to kill her?"

Pixiu blinked, nervously fidgeting with its fingers. [It's all Cang Shuyue's fault for adding fuel to the fire. Not only did she verbally provoke the Crown Prince, but she also didn't give him time to process it, directly exposing the Meng family's conspiracy. Then Gu Cheng and Xu Ruohuai were adding fuel to the fire. The Crown Prince was so overwhelmed by this shock that he couldn't handle it and lost control of his emotions. He's going to drag the Meng family down with him.]

He didn't mention a word about how he had pushed the rocks down the mountain ahead of time, scaring Meng into revealing his secret prematurely.

What did the beast do wrong? The beast just wanted to see the young couple meet as soon as possible and didn't want to drag out the plot.

Youlu: "..."

He could tell from the Pixiu's expression that it had played a part in this, but now was not the time to investigate; he had to stop his eldest brother immediately.

"Do you still have the energy to grow bigger?" he asked urgently.

"Yes, yes, we have it all!" The Pixiu nodded hurriedly, immediately transforming back into its original form. It lowered its body and raised its chin. "Boss, come sit down quickly, I'll take you there!"

It originally planned to save some energy for later sneaking food, but now, in order to let the young couple meet as soon as possible, it's going all out!

Without hesitation, Youlu straddled the Pixiu's back. But before he was even properly seated, the Pixiu shouted energetically, "Pixiu fighter jet, take off! All for candy!"

With a whoosh, the beast had already darted several miles away.

A deer nearly fell off, so someone quickly grabbed its neck to steady it, asking in utter bewilderment, "You little monster, what's going on in your head?"

How come he can come up with any word?

Don't pry into the affairs of CP fans!

The wind whistled in their ears, the shadows of the bushes receded rapidly, a deer brushed the fine raindrops from its face, and heard the solemn voice of the Pixiu.

He couldn't help but twitch his lips slightly; the child had grown up and was no longer under his control.

The Pixiu was incredibly fast, crossing the mountain in the blink of an eye and arriving at the ruins of Xikou Village. It hovered in the air, flapping its wings, and asked, "[Wouldn't it be bad if we just went straight over like this? It'll be hard to explain later.]"

"Then how about I swim over? And then help Meng collect her body?" Youlu smiled kindly.

The Pixiu blinked innocently. "Alright, I'll take you there."

It soared into the air, dozens of meters high, and the man and the beast crossed the river under the cover of night, circling above everyone's heads as they slowly descended.

Pixiu wanted to show off and make a grand entrance, but it ran out of energy halfway through its flight, and the majestic beast instantly turned into a round, fat ball.

The human and the beast stared awkwardly at each other in mid-air. The Pixiu, cupping its face, cried out: "Oh no!"

A deer was caught off guard and fell uncontrollably.

A strong feeling of weightlessness washed over him, and all he could hear was the whistling wind. He closed his eyes and couldn't help but scream, "Aaaaaah!"

[Boss, I'm here to save you!] The Pixiu pounced on him and grabbed his belt, trying to lift him up. However, it underestimated its strength and instead of saving him, it was pulled down with him.

"Boss, you're too fat! The beast can't pull you!"

"You jerk!"

Curses drifted on the wind.

Cang Shuyue felt a hurricane sweep over his head, as if something was swirling above. He looked up sharply and, through the fine rain, glimpsed a point of vermilion in the night sky approaching from afar, followed by a familiar sound.

As the ground drew closer, a deer closed its eyes in fear and instinctively cried out, "Brother Imperial Uncle, help me!"

The next second, my waist tightened, and a familiar cool fragrance wafted into my nostrils.

"It's okay, don't worry."

A deep voice sounded above my head, and I was pulled into a warm, broad embrace.

The fear and tension vanished instantly.

His hands and feet regained their own consciousness and clung tightly to the person in front of him.

"Ugh..." A suppressed cry of pain reached her ears through her chest. You Lu suddenly looked up. "What's wrong?"

Cang Shuyue's face was a little pale. She gently placed him on the ground, shook her head, and said, "I'm fine."

The Pixiu, panting, floated over, its tongue lolling out. "I told you you were too heavy! Cang Shuyue dislocated his arm trying to catch you."

It was exhausted. Although it tried its best but still couldn't hold onto its boss, it at least slowed down the pace. Otherwise, Cang Shuyue would have not only dislocated his shoulder, but his hand would have been ruined.

Youlu's heart tightened, her eyes reddened as she grabbed his drooping arm and choked out, "Brother Imperial Brother..."

"Hmm?" Cang Shuyue lowered her head slightly, listening intently to what he was saying.

"I'll put your dislocated arm back in place." You Lu's expression changed instantly. Before Cang Shuyue could react, she pushed and shoved, and the dislocated arm was back in place.

"..." Cang Shuyue's lips twitched slightly.

Pixiu sighs, "[This is utterly pointless. There's a reason some people stay single for centuries. You wasted that precious moment of reunion after a short separation and a heroic rescue.]"

Youlu blinked in confusion. Shouldn't an injury be treated immediately?
