Gu Lang went back to the East Palace to get his clothes. In order to make it easier for him to take care of Zhao Zhuo before, the prince transferred him as a personal guard, and he no longer had to be on duty in the East Palace every day.

On the way, he met the prince who came back from the imperial study. This was the first time he had seen Murong Yan wearing a dragon-patterned python robe. It is no longer a white robe with wide sleeves and elegant, and there is no romantic smile. The apricot color of that body reveals the majesty of the emperor's family, jade and gold.

They looked at each other on the porch. Wu Liu, who was following behind the prince, was confused, thinking that the prince was angry when he saw that Gu Lang did not salute, and was about to speak, when he saw the prince turned away again.

Wu Liu hurriedly chased after him, wondering why every time the prince saw Brother Gu, he would turn around and leave.

Gu Lang lowered his eyes, stood there for a while, and then left.

In the evening, thunder roared, and an autumn rain poured down.

Seven or eight guards from Zheng Mansion walked through the bamboo forest in the rain, but they couldn't find the direction as they walked, and they were shivering because of the rain.

"His uncle, why can't he find his way?!" A big man in the lead raised his hand to wipe the rain off his face, and said irritably, "Where is this dark man going?!"

A younger man behind him complained in a low voice, "Everyone said it was going to rain, so I couldn't go into the woods, you don't believe me..."

The big man turned his head and slapped him on the back of the head, scolding: "You still have the face to say?! The big man explained that he was looking for someone. After so many days of searching, he couldn't even find a hair! If you drag it on, be careful that the big man will chop you off with a knife. Now feed the dog!"

The young man also knew that they hadn't found anyone for so many days, so Zheng Yufei scolded them a lot and didn't dare to speak again.

"Brother Jiang," the other said to the big man, "there seems to be a fire in front of you, there should be a home, let's take shelter from the rain."

The big man stretched his neck and looked, and saw a faint light ahead. He couldn't keep his eyes open due to the heavy rain. He just wanted to quickly find a place to hide, so he waved his hand: "Go, go and have a look."

Zhao Zhuo and Inunsi were sitting under the bamboo building, drinking tea and chatting while listening to the sound of rain.

"When the young master came back, he locked himself in the room and didn't eat dinner." Zhao Zhuo said worriedly, "How can my body survive this way?"

Inunsi held a plate of peanuts, rubbed the skins one by one and ate them, and said, "Does the Crown Princess miss His Highness? Should I go and find His Highness?"

Zhao Zhuo: "Maybe they quarreled so fiercely before..."

"Yes," Inumi nodded and said, "Your Highness has come down, will we quarrel again?"

Zhao Zhuo sighed and said, "I thought that Young Master Murong would be happier if Young Master Murong didn't die, so why... alas..."

At this moment, Inumi rubbed Peanut's hand for a while, and suddenly looked up to the front. The noise of rain and thunder covered the footsteps of the people in the woods, which he hadn't noticed before.
