King Rui's cheerful expression seemed to be high-spirited.

"Why are you coming back at this time?" Yue Chenyan's face was extremely cold.

The smile on Chu Yunyi's face froze. He didn't expect Yue Chen's banquet to question him so harshly.

After a moment, he said angrily: "Don't worry, I know you value the river embankment, so I surveyed it very carefully. It's really okay..."

"Is everything okay? What guarantee do you have?" Yue Chenyan's eyes were sharp.

King Rui touched his nose in embarrassment, smiled dryly and said calmly: "Everything is a bit unexpected, isn't it..."

Yue Chenyan didn't wait for him to finish, and said in a deep voice: "Why are you so eager to come back when you know there is an accident?"

He felt a little unhappy in his heart. He knew that Yue Chenyan was cold-tempered and unsmiling, but such an unpretentious rebuke to him made him feel that Yue Chenyan was a bit aggressive.

No matter what, he is a dignified prince, but he doesn't give himself any face, almost treating him as a subordinate.

It made him even more uncomfortable than the prince's arrogance. King Rui tried his best to suppress the unhappiness in his heart, but the dry smile he forced out could not be maintained, "Zi Chen, we have been in love for many years, you need to be like this." To me?

I traveled hundreds of miles in the rain and went to find you as soon as I came back, just because I have always regarded you as a good brother.

But you were not in the house, and you knew that I was back. Not only did you not go back immediately, but you also sent someone to ask me to come over.

Okay, that's nothing, it's just a matter of walking a few more steps.

But I just walked in, and you didn't even let me sit down before you scolded me. Don't you think it's too much?Unexpectedly, it was just my wishful thinking from beginning to end. You have already changed. "

"Since you have worked so hard, why do you have to come back in such a hurry? Since you came to me and feel that you have been wronged, why should you be condescending?

Do you want to see me flattered?Or do you want to see me show gratitude?Have I changed, or do you have too many ideas? "

Yue Chenyan laughed angrily, "It's just because I regard you as a good friend. I thought you knew the importance, so I entrusted you with such an important matter.

But you didn't hesitate to come back in the rain at this critical moment. Chu Yunyi, if something happens, do you know how big the consequences will be? "

Chu Yunyi's expression also turned cold, "The embankment is fine, what can happen? Hasn't it always been fine for so many years?

Do you hold me back like this because you have a problem with me, or are you worried that I will ask you to help me at this time? "

Chu Yunyi felt that it was time to speak out. There was no need to think about expecting Yue Chenyan to take the initiative to help him.

Yue Chenyan was suddenly stunned upon hearing this, "So you know the news that the prince has been deposed and imprisoned?"

After Chu Yunyi came back, he heard about the prince being deposed and thrown into prison, but after hearing it from Yue Chenyan's mouth, he was confirmed.

The unhappiness he just felt was half gone in an instant. He coughed and did not dare to tell the truth, "I only found out when I came back and heard other people talking about it."

Yue Chenyan did not want to continue to have a meaningless entanglement with King Rui, "You can go."

Chu Yunyi's thoughts buried deep in his heart could not be suppressed now. It was time to make an agreement with him. He simply said bluntly: "The prince has been deposed, and the position of heir apparent will not be vacant for long. Zi Chen, you Will you help me?"

Yue Chenyan's eyes were dull, and he couldn't argue with emotion or anger, "Is that position so important?"

"Who wouldn't be interested in that position? It's okay if there is no chance. Now that the opportunity is right in front of me, why can't I fight for it?

I admit that I am a layman, Zichen, and I need your support.As long as you are willing to help me, in the future you and I will rule the world together and we will be invincible..."

King Rui was a little excited. After speaking with enthusiasm, his eyes were fixed on Yue Chenyan. His palms were sweaty due to nervousness.

Yue Chenyan's eyes were cold and silent, his thin lips parted slightly, "The Yue family's ancestral motto is not to participate in the Chu family's succession."

Chu Yunyi immediately sneered when he heard this, "How can I not understand who you are? Why do you use such excuses to deal with me?

Everything is just a matter of your thoughts, Zichen, after so many years of our friendship, do you really not care and are unwilling to help me? "

Chu Yunyi paused as he spoke, and said with some sincerity, "You know, my father and my grandmother only care about fighting for power..."

Chu Yunyi stopped talking in time. If he continued talking, it would be treason.

"For the sake of our friendship over so many years, I'll just say one more thing. It's not your turn. I'll just say it here so that I can take care of myself. When the wind comes, I'll see you off." After Yue Chenyan finished speaking, he stood up and walked towards the inner room.

The clothes on his body were damp, and he felt a little uncomfortable, so he wanted to change his clothes first.

Chu Yunyi's heart surged and he raised his voice: "It's not my turn? Are you saying I'm not worthy? Or are you saying that neither my father nor my grandmother will consider me?"

Yue Chenyan, I thought you were cold-hearted, but I didn't expect you to be so cold-hearted and not miss our friendship for so many years. "

Chu Yunyi said with a mocking laugh, "That's right, you are no different than the uncrowned emperor now, so you certainly disdain me, a humble beggar.

However, for me, if I miss this opportunity, I will never have another chance in the future. No matter what, I will fight for it.

Yue Chenyan, just watch with your eyes wide open, I can still succeed without you! "

After saying this, Chu Yunyi walked away angrily, feeling furious in his heart. He was determined to win the position of crown prince.

Yue Chenyan frowned slightly. It was not that he had not noticed Prince Rui's hidden ambition. He never talked to him about such sensitive topics because he hoped that he would know how to keep a low profile for the time being.

But I didn't expect him to be too impatient.

When Feng Shi came back from seeing Chu Yunyi off, Yue Chenyan was changing clothes.

"Master, I'm afraid that King Rui really annoyed you today..." Feng Shi clicked his tongue, "I think King Rui was confused by that position, and he didn't even think about it. Without the prince, there would still be King Mu and King Wei. , it’s not his turn no matter what.”

Yue Chenyan tied his belt and said calmly: "Even you know something, how can he not know it?"

Feng Shi murmured: "That's right, King Mu is the daughter of the emperor's noble concubine, and everyone in the world knows about the emperor's love.

The King of Wei is the daughter of Concubine Li. Concubine Li's status in the palace is the same as that of the queen in the heart of the current Emperor Tai'an, and she is not well received by Emperor Tai'an.

Because Concubine Li was also chosen by the Queen Mother, she naturally did not please the emperor, so King Wei was sent away.

In this case, King Rui is a little overestimating his capabilities..."

Yue Chenyan shook his head, "He's not overestimating his abilities, he's just trying to gain a glimmer of hope."

Feng Shi rolled his eyes, "I don't think he is seeking a glimmer of hope, he is forcing the master to support him, but he only sees your strength, master.

Little did they know that you didn't do anything. Both mother and son of the Chu family regarded the Huainan Palace as a formidable enemy. If you really got involved in seizing the legitimate son, he would be very close to losing his life. "

Yue Chenyan shook his head and flicked his sleeves, "I know that King Rui's city is deep and his relationship with me is not simple.

It doesn't matter, no matter who inherits the throne in the end, as long as they don't try to touch my Yue clan.

But I still seem to think highly of him. He is so anxious. The emperor is still in his prime. As an emperor, he has not yet taken away the imperial power. A mere reserve position has made him obsessed..."

What Yue Chen Yan didn’t say is that no one knows what will happen until the end.

"Master, where are you going?" Feng Shi asked immediately as he saw his master walking out.

"Entering the palace..."
