Traveling through the Gaowu Tang Dynasty, Li Kuan and Li Shimin became the second sons of the Prince

"Your Highness, why do you think so?" Seeing that His Highness the King of Chu was gradually showing signs of using force, Hong San hurriedly said, "I just feel that... 'highly respected' is not enough to describe your noble character..."

"Hong San... I see you are really hungry..." His Royal Highness the King of Chu didn't know why, but every serious-looking "big villain" would gradually become unserious after joining his camp. Li Ji was one in the past, and now Hong San is also...

Alas... the world is deteriorating, the world is deteriorating!

"Your Highness, you are joking..." Hong San saw that His Highness the King of Chu finally put back the rolled-up embroidered robe, so he said again: "Your Highness, don't worry, I will definitely not let the news of what happened today leak out."

"That's not important," His Royal Highness the King of Chu waved his hands after hearing this, "I don't care anyway. But you, remember to stay away from Gao Shilian in the future. This old man is petty and holds grudges very well..."

"Your Highness, you are quite good at judging people." Hong San did not expect that His Royal Highness the King of Chu would have such a profound understanding of Gao Shilian.

"It's not me who is good at judging people, it's my grandmother who is good at judging people." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu sighed after hearing this, and then said, "But don't worry, he doesn't dare to provoke me. By the way, he didn't verbally insult you just now, did he? If so, let's go back and prepare our troops and go settle the score with him!"

"Your Highness, Duke Shen is a duke after all. How could he bother with a eunuch like me..." Hong San was loyal to His Highness the King of Chu, but he did not want His Highness the King of Chu to cause trouble for Gao Shilian because of him.

After all, he was the Queen's uncle, the Prince of Chu. After his display of power, he would probably be chased around the palace with a feather duster by the Queen...

"Don't keep calling yourself 'eunuch'..." When His Royal Highness the King of Chu saw Hong San like this, he felt uncomfortable for some reason: "Hong San, you are more manly than many men with penises! In my opinion, regardless of the fact that you fought for the country at the border, you entered the palace to work for your family's livelihood. Just for this reason, you deserve respect! Don't be burdened by the secular gaze! Learn more from me!"

"Are you going to follow your example and 'exile people to Lingnan' for no reason?" When Hong San heard His Royal Highness the King of Chu say this, he quietly suppressed the waves of emotion in his heart and began to tease the "intimate King of Chu" in front of him.

"Alas, I was just talking. When did I really exile people to Lingnan? That's all slander!" His Royal Highness the King of Chu saw that Hong San had understood what he meant, so he patted his shoulder with satisfaction and said, "Okay, anyway, this is what happened. You and Yun Shang don't have to worry about Gao Shilian, I will definitely protect you! But now, I have to go back to have lunch with Xiao Sizi..."

"Your Highness, may I dare to ask you something?" When Hong San saw that His Royal Highness the King of Chu was about to leave, his eyes flickered slightly, and he finally asked the question that he had hidden in his heart for a long time: "Are you really right..."

"Hong San," His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu said before Hong San finished speaking, "If I had grown up with that tyrant, I might have tried to fight for the throne, but I was raised by my grandmother, so I have a mission. Do you think I was joking when I said that in the palace? No, my father knows I'm not joking, but he just can't accept this reality for the time being."

"Your Highness..." Hong San's tone was filled with deep worry at this moment: "In my humble opinion... you really shouldn't have said those words so openly..."

“I usually like to tell little lies, but this time is different.” His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu knew that the old eunuch in front of him was truly thinking about him, so his tone unconsciously softened a bit: “Hong San, if I don’t do something for the Royal Grandmother, then there really won’t be many people in this world who will remember her anymore…”

-------------------------------------

After the turmoil caused by Gao Shilian ended.

His Royal Highness the King of Chu finally spent some relatively peaceful days.

But after the first snow fell in Chang'an, things became interesting again.

"Dou Shilun, is this what you call taking good care of the young master?!" - When the sky cleared up after the snow, in the back garden of Dou Shilun's mansion, a sturdy old man with a seven-foot tall figure and a ruddy face, wearing only a green linen robe, sat in the viewing pavilion beside the pond, glaring at Dou Shilun who was standing not far in front of him with his hands clasped.

"Mr. Yu... I..." Dou Shilun knew that things couldn't end so simply, but he really didn't expect that this person would come to Chang'an in person: "The reason why I didn't do anything about this is because His Royal Highness the King of Chu personally ordered us not to hold Gao Shilian responsible..."

"Alas... that silly boy is too kind-hearted!" After hearing what Dou Shilun said, Yu Zan shook his head helplessly: "Just like the old patriarch..."

"..."Dou Shilun really didn't know how to respond to Yu Zan's words.

Perhaps only this cruel and murderous person would be qualified to think that His Royal Highness the King of Chu is too kind...

"What is the young master doing now?" Seeing that Dou Shilun didn't say anything, Yu Zan narrowed his eyes slightly, and then asked about the recent situation of His Royal Highness the King of Chu.

"His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu plays and frolics with his brothers and sisters in the palace every day. Occasionally, he goes out of the palace to visit the Yu Mansion and the Xiao Mansion. Of course, he usually goes in and is beaten out by Duke Yu and Duke Xiao. After that, he goes to the residences of Wei Zheng and Dugu Yanyun, but... he can hardly even enter the doors of these two. Of course, he also often brings some gifts to visit Feng Ang's daughter and the young lady of the Duke Ying's family - Yu Gong. Speaking of this, let me say one more thing, His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu is really... very good at keeping things in balance. Except for going to the Yu Mansion more often, his visits to the other five families are basically the same..."

"Yu Shinan... Xiao Yu... Wei Zheng... Dugu Yanyun?" After listening to Dou Shilun's words, Yu Zan was not moved by the other party's joke at the end. The old man just slowly read out the names of the four people.

"Mr. Yu! You must not be impulsive... Yu Shinan and Xiao Yu both teach His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu as their last disciples. As for Wei Zheng and Dugu Yanyun... one has always been at odds with His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu, and the other wants to... avoid suspicion... um... avoid suspicion..."

“Alas…” Yu Zan saw that Dou Shilun was having such a hard time explaining, so he just looked at him deeply and said, “Forget it… I won’t interfere in these matters! But you should know who I want to meet in Chang’an this time, right?”
