Chapter 223

The death of her mother, the thorn in her heart.

"You are the master," Chu Yeming did not ask much. He took out his sleeve again. A golden light flashed by, and the red gems of Jiulong Chaofeng swayed. Xiao Liuyan was slightly surprised.

"Your Highness."

"You are a woman who has never taken it, so you have to do it yourself. By the way, I have something for you. Here -- "

He motioned for a small box on the table next to him. Xiao Liuyan got up and opened the small box, which contained a box of transparent white diamonds, top-quality rubies the size of his thumb, and a stack of banknotes.

"This is from my mother's dowry?"

"It's hidden in Hu's secret. These things are more than silver. I'll bring them to you." Chu Yeming's words made Xiao Liuyan smile. She looked at the box of gems. It was estimated that all the gems that Hu had picked up for so many years were here.

"This should be Hu's dowry for Xiao Liuyue."

Chu Yeming: "this is your dowry now."

"Your Highness is right." Xiao Liuyan closes the box and slightly hooks his lips. Hu has been greedy for her mother's dowry for so many years. Now it's time to return it.

"Don't throw it away, or you'll break your head. Never break your promise. " Chu Yeming treasures that step to shake in Xiao Liuyan's ink hair, Xiao Liuyan holds that step to shake slightly speechless.

"Your Highness, it's not that my daughter refuses to take it. It's too heavy."

This shake was left by the empress. It was originally brought on important occasions, but he put it on her directly. All of a sudden, she felt that her head was much heavier.

"Take it with you

Chuyeming pursed his lips, and xiaoliuyan nodded, "yes, I'll take it with me, but I'll take it with me on important occasions. Can I?"

"Well."

Chu Yeming's eyes fell on a jade pendant in her hair. "Is this from Anning?"

"Yes Xiao Liuyan caresses the jade pendant with a warm smile on the corner of his mouth. When it comes to tranquility, her look will always become very gentle. Chu Yeming is jealous and gets up to leave.

“？”

Xiao Liuyan was puzzled. When ah Liu came with tea, he asked curiously, "Miss, has your Highness the prince left? I usually want to have a cup of tea with you for a while? Why did you leave so soon today? "

"Who knows, Xu is smoking again what crazy!" Xiao Liuyan muttered, ah Liu didn't hear clearly. When he asked, he saw the dazzling red light in Xiao Liuyan's hair.

"Miss!"

"What's the matter?" Xiao Liuyan was startled by her sudden excited scream, some inexplicable, ah Liu pointed to her head, shivering excited to say, "this, this is..."

"Miss, what's the matter, ah Liu?" Ah Jiu heard his sister's scream at the door and rushed in. Since the fire, he felt that he was not able to protect himself, and now he is more energetic.

"Isn't this the first queen's step shake?"

Ah Liu stammered and said, ah Jiu also looked at Xiao Liuyan's hair room, lowered his head, and his eyes were also shocked. He knew his highness was looking at the important lady, but he didn't expect that he paid so much attention to it.

This is what the queen left him

"Miss, your highness is very kind to you! You must treat him well, too! " Ah Liu talks, and Xiao Liuyan smokes. Is this still his servant girl?

Even Cuizhu nodded, "yes, madam, the prince's Royal Highness looks at you coldly, but it's really good for you. How many delicious and funny things have been sent here for free these days, and they really care for you!"

Cuizhu thought happily. Her royal highness treats her eldest daughter like this, and she will surely have a happy life after she is married. At this time, she obviously forgot the rumor that her royal highness will not live beyond 25 years.

"Miss, you can't marry your Highness the prince!"

A familiar female voice rang out. Xiao Liuyan turned his head and laughed, "jade mother, why are you here?"

"Mother Yu!" Ah Liu and Cui Zhu called happily. But Yu Niang came in step by step with a serious face. She looked at Xiao Liuyan and said word by word

"Miss, you can't marry your royal highness, absolutely not!"

"Yu Niang, what's the matter with you?" Xiao Liuyan felt that her attitude was not right. Ah Liu also changed her face. She looked at Yu Niang, "mother Yu, why is this? Your highness is very kind to the first lady. Maybe you are not here these days. I don't know..."

"No, no matter what he does to the first lady, she can't marry him.""Why?"

Xiao Liuyan saw Ah Jiu guarding the gate well, and even had a warning. Ah Jiu knew what she meant, nodded, went out, and stood at the gate of the yard, just like a door god.

"Young lady, would you like to listen to the old slave?" Yu Niang's expression pleads, Xiao Liuyan definitely looks at her, "you have to give me a reason."

"He, it's said that he can't live more than 25 years. If you marry him, you won't have a good life. Isn't that what makes you young and widowed?" Xiao Liuyan doesn't believe Yu Niang's words. It's definitely not because of this.

"Yu Niang, come in with me. Ah Liu, green bamboo, you are guarding outside the door

"Yes! Miss Two maid Mou Guang worry of looking at them to leave, six is some unconvinced even more, "jade mother nonsense, how can your highness live but 25!"

"But it seems that there are such rumors in the market." Cuizhu also thought of it. For a moment, it was a little tangled.

Ah Liu is also silent. She knows more about the prince's body as a dead man. Besides, it's impossible for her to say that she didn't know as the prince's bodyguard.

Now it's up to the young lady's choice. Ah Liu looks at the closed door with some worry.

Inside the door.

Xiao Liuyan sat on the chair and looked at Yu Niang, "Yu Niang, why?"

"Miss, I said. I'm worried about the future of the prince. You have a hard time. You know that he's not the ordinary prince. He's the prince. How hard it is to be a crown princess, the royal family's fight is more terrible than Xiao's

Jade Niang is very kind-hearted. Xiao Liuyan looks at her and feels that she has not told the truth. To Xiao Liuyan's clear and Lingling eyes, jade Niang is a little flustered and doesn't dare to face it.

But she was very firm about it.

"Do you mean that, or does my grandfather mean that?" Xiao Liuyan's sudden words stunned Yu Niang, and then she said, "Miss, the old slave came to you. The Duke of Zhen knew about it, but he didn't..."

"I know."

Xiao Liuyan raised her hand and stopped Yu Niang's words. She looked at Yu Niang's nervous eyes and said with a smile, "don't worry, I won't be angry with my grandfather. I know you and he care about me."
