Terrified

Maybe it won't work once or twice, but as long as Little Eleven often goes to the lake to play, it will happen sooner or later.

Gu Qizhen asked in a trembling voice: "Cousin, is someone really harming me?"

"I'm afraid so."

Gu Qizhen shrank his neck and murmured: "Who is it? Why does he want to hurt me again? I have never done anything wrong..."

Li Fucheng looked at his fearful expression and sighed secretly.

This kid is really not ready to be a prince or an emperor.

He doesn't like to study, is not motivated, and has no plans for the city. He is in the palace and is well protected by Concubine Shu and him. He just plays wantonly every day, and his mind is not as good as that of a five or six-year-old child outside.

But this is his own child after all, and he must be protected no matter what.

Li Fucheng knelt down, wiped away Gu Qizhen's tears, and said gently: "Your Highness, don't be afraid. I am here now and I will protect you."

"But you can't be by my side all the time."

"So His Highness needs to cultivate his own strength." Li Fucheng said softly, "You are now the Prince of the East Palace, and you are no longer the little Eleven before. You must strengthen yourself and accumulate your own strength so that you can protect yourself and protect yourself well.

The people around you.”

Gu Qizhen nodded in understanding, but his eyes were still full of fear that could not be dissipated.

He was completely frightened.

Yingning said: "Brother, have you reported this matter to the emperor?"

"I was just about to go. I saw you and the prince when I passed by, so I came over to say something to you."

"Then go quickly. You must ask the emperor to investigate clearly. You cannot let your aunt die so unjustly."

"I understand." Li Fucheng said, "Shall I take you back first?"

"Such a big thing just happened. The other party won't do anything again in a short time." Ying Ning said calmly, "Xiao Shiyi's mood is not right now. We can't let him go to his aunt, lest he be further stimulated.

"

Li Fucheng nodded, his eyes falling on his sister's face: "Sister, are you okay?"

"Me? I'm fine. Brother, just go and be busy. I will take good care of Xiao Eleven these days."

"That's good."

Li Fucheng felt relieved when he saw her calm expression and stable mood.

After he left, Ying Ning took Gu Qizhen for another conversation. When it was already dusk, she said she would send Xiao Eleven back to the East Palace.

Unexpectedly, when Gu Qizhen heard this, he hugged him and cried tremblingly: "Sister Ying, I don't want to go back to the East Palace!"

"Then, do you want to go to Yuming Palace?"

"No, I won't go, I won't go!" Gu Qizhen shook his head firmly.

"Why?" Yingning asked.

"I..." Gu Qizhen couldn't hold back and started crying again, "I'm scared!"

Ying Ning patted him on the back: "Don't be afraid."

Gu Qizhen trembled his lips: "Sister Ying, I don't dare to go to the concubine, I don't dare to see her... I'm scared. I don't dare to stay alone in the East Palace, I'm scared too, I'm really scared, so scared.

!”

"I know, I understand everything."

Ying Ning comforted him, "Let's do this. You can stay in my Yufu Palace tonight, okay?"

"Um!"

He wiped his tears with his sleeve, his blue-white face covered with tear stains. He pinched Ying Ning's sleeve pitifully, not daring to let go.

He was completely frightened and regarded Ying Ning as a life-saving straw and the last safe harbor. He clung to her tightly and refused to let go.

Yingning took him back to Yufu Palace, had some dinner with him, and asked the eunuchs to take a bath with him. Then she watched him fall asleep, called four appropriate people, and ordered them to guard him and not leave even an inch.

Gu Qizhen lay on his side and huddled on the bed. When he fell asleep, his expression was full of fear.
