Chapter 119 There's Sand in My Eyes
"That's pretty much it."
Wu Qingwen was satisfied.
Wu Qingyue and Xiao Shiyi stayed in the palace for a few days, and the one who was most dissatisfied was Xiao Shiyu.
After finally waiting for them to return to the palace, he hurried to the side hall where they lived.
"Royal brother, you are back!" He came forward with a wronged look.
"I'm only away for a few days, and you can't stand it? But you were alone in the palace for years before, and I didn't see you say anything."
"That's different." Xiao Shiyu muttered softly.
In the past, because his royal brother was away all year round, he was used to staying alone in the palace; but now, he can see his royal brother every day, and the feeling is different.
"Shi Yu!"
Xiao Shiyi said seriously, "You are already a man. You have to learn to stand on your own feet, understand? Instead of relying on your brother for everything, you have to learn to grow up!"
"Shi Yi..."
Wu Qingyue tugged at his sleeve: "Why are you so fierce? Shi Yu didn't say anything!"
That he is fierce?
Xiao Shiyi looked at her doubtfully, and she winked at him.
Xiao Shiyi looked at Xiao Shiyu again and found that he had a look of forbearance on his face, with tears welling up in his eyes, but he was stubborn and didn't let them fall.
His mood suddenly became conflicted.
"My brother wasn't mean to you." He explained awkwardly.
It would have been fine if he hadn't said it. As soon as he said it, Xiao Shiyu's tears flowed down like a dam bursting!
"Don't cry!"
Xiao Shiyi became even more panicked!
He frantically wiped his tears, but the more he wiped, the more tears flowed!
Finally, Xiao Shiyu burst into tears!
"What's wrong with you?" he growled.
"What are you yelling about?"
Wu Qingyue rolled her eyes at him.
She walked up to him, squatted down, took out her handkerchief, and patiently wiped his tears.
"Shi Yu, what grievances have you suffered? Tell the Empress Dowager about it, okay?"
Her voice was very gentle, and Xiao Shiyu really wanted to tell her about the grievances in his heart.
But he didn't want them to worry about him.
"It's okay, it's just... there's sand in my eye."
Is there sand in your eyes?
Wu Qingyue's mouth twitched slightly.
He could even come up with such a lame excuse.
"All right."
She patted his arm and wanted to say something, but heard a low cry from him.
Wu Qingyue: “?”
She grabbed his wrist and pretended to lift his sleeve -
"do not want!"
Xiao Shiyu was shocked. He pulled his hand out and hid it behind his back.
Xiao Shiyi finally realized that something was wrong!
"Put your hands out!" he ordered.
"Do not......"
"Don't make me say it a second time."
Xiao Shiyu couldn't help shivering.
He was already very scared even when his royal brother didn't get angry, let alone when he got angry?
He stretched out his right hand tremblingly, and Xiao Shiyi grabbed his hand with a dark face.
As soon as his fingers touched his sleeve, he subconsciously pulled his hand back -
"do not move!"
Xiao Shiyu immediately didn't dare to move.
Xiao Shiyi rolled up his sleeves, and a series of crisscrossing wounds appeared before their eyes!
"Oh my God!"
Wu Qingwen couldn't help but exclaimed.
Even though she was mentally prepared, Wu Qingyue was still shocked by the scene before her.
She subconsciously looked at the man's reaction...
His eyes were bloodshot, as if they were about to spit fire; the veins on his forehead were bulging, as if they were about to explode. His thin lips were tightly closed, and Wu Qingyue knew that this man was extremely angry.
He silently pulled up Xiao Shiyu's other hand, lifted up his sleeve and took a look -
His arms were also covered with scars.
"Who did it?"
A voice that's about to storm.
"Brother, brother..."
"Say!"
His tone was so gloomy that Xiao Shiyu was so frightened that his body kept shaking.
"I, I accidentally touched it..."
"Xiao, Shi, Yu."
Xiao Shiyi called his name word by word, and Xiao Shiyu was almost scared to tears.
He didn't want his brother to know. He was afraid that his brother would impulsively take revenge for him, and if he did, he would put his brother in an irreversible situation...
Do not!
He can't say!
He quickly pulled back his hand and put down his sleeve!
"Royal brother, could you please stop asking!"
He shook his head like a rattle.
"Don't want to say it?"
Xiao Shiyu pursed his lips tightly and didn't say anything.
Xiao Shiyi stopped forcing him.
He stood up, took out a dagger, pointed it at his arm, and "Swish--"
"Brother Emperor!"
"Shi Yi!"
Wu Qingyue was stunned, and the next second, she realized his intention.
Xiao Shiyu was terrified. He trembled and asked, "What are you doing?"
"'The eldest brother is like a father'. You were bullied, and as your older brother, I didn't know about it. It's my fault."
"Chi la——"
Another sound.
"My mother entrusted you to me, and I failed to take good care of you. I feel guilty towards her."
Blood dripped down his arm.
He raised the dagger again—
Xiao Shiyu hugged his arm and said, "Royal brother, I'm telling you, it's my brother the Crown Prince! Stop hurting yourself!"
Xiao Muheng!
A chill flashed across Wu Qingyue's eyes——
He was so cruel that he attacked Shi Yu!
Xiao Shiyi slowly put down the dagger, his lips tightly closed, his teeth pressed tightly against his back molars, "Very good."
He squeezed out these two words from between his teeth.
"Brother, I'm not hurt, really! Don't be angry!"
It was clearly him who was abused, but he was so sensible that it made people feel distressed, as if someone else was the one who was hurt.
But how could the angry man listen to him?
He turned around and walked away without saying a word!
Realizing what he was going to do, Wu Qingyue hurried to follow.
"Let's go and take a look too." Wu Qingwen said to Ji Chenglin.
"Ah."
Seeing that everyone had left, the dazed Xiao Shiyu came back to his senses.
"Wait for me!"
It's terrible! It's terrible!
The emperor is angry!
Since Xiao Muheng and Wu Yanzhen held their wedding, they have not yet consummated their marriage due to Xiao Muheng's "defects".
Wu Yanzhen's initial hints and now open urging have forced Xiao Muheng into having no way to escape.
"Your Highness, why are you so reluctant to consummate your marriage with me?"
So, Wu Yanzhen blocked the man in the study room in an instant.
A hint of gloom flashed across Xiao Muheng's eyes.
"I haven't recovered from my last injury yet, so consummating our marriage... let's wait a little longer."
"Injuried?"
Wu Yanzhen looked him up and down, and finally his eyes fell on his "that place"——
Xiao Muheng's heart tightened, fearing that he would reveal his flaws, he moved his body quietly.
"Your Highness, could it be that your 'root' has been injured?" Wu Yanzhen said bluntly.
"Shut up! What outrageous things are you saying!"
