The villain's pet apprentice sister is not to be trifled with

Si Qingyu came close to Butler Li and whispered, "Butler Li, is the prince a good person or a bad person?"

Butler Li lowered his head and said nothing, humming in his heart: My God, can you stop talking to me! Do you think I want to pay attention to you? If you keep doing this to me, I will be exposed! His Majesty will chop me off!

Butler Li ignored him, but Si Qingyu didn't get angry. He continued to ask questions with a smile, "Who is more handsome, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, or the First Prince?

I am a newcomer to this world, and I have never experienced the world and I still have many things I don’t understand.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is going to be the emperor in the future? From this point of view, following him is more promising than following the eldest prince!"

Butler Li could no longer bear it and paused for a moment, "Miss, please be careful with your words."

Nangong Chiyang didn't say a word the whole time. Butler Li deliberately walked to Nangong Chiyang's side and observed his expression, but found that he didn't seem unhappy at all.

Butler Li felt a little sad and sighed deeply, thinking, His Highness has been trained for so many years, how come he still can't judge people and is completely unguarded against others?

This little girl is obviously not a loyal person, yet he still keeps her by his side!

Boss, oh boss, please be more careful!

While they were talking, they had already reached the gate.

Nangong Zhurong was riding a tall, fiery red horse and leading a team of red-clad cavalrymen waiting at the door.

It was not until he saw Nangong Chiyang that Nangong Zhurong's eyes moved slightly, a smile appeared on his lips, he dismounted from his horse and walked towards Nangong Chiyang.

"Royal brother, you are really still alive! Very good!" Nangong Zhurong reached out and patted Nangong Chiyang's shoulder.

Nangong Zhurong's appearance is 70% similar to Nangong Chiyang, but he is less cold and aloof than Nangong Chiyang, and more luxurious and elegant.

"Yeah." Nangong Chiyang just responded indifferently.

Nangong Zhurong was a prince born to one of the emperor's concubines.

My father had many women, some of whom were legitimate and some of whom were not. Therefore, my father had many children, some of whom he had known since childhood, some of whom he had known later, and I heard that there were some whom he didn't know at all.

Nangong Zhurong was someone he had known since childhood. She was his mother's cousin and the daughter of his father's favorite concubine, Concubine Hui.

Unfortunately, Concubine Hui died early, and Nangong Zhurong lost his mother at a young age.

Fortunately, he was raised by the queen's side, who treated him as her own son and even treated him better than her own son, Nangong Chiyang.

Therefore, everyone in and outside the palace compared him with Nangong Chiyang.

This contrast became even more evident when Nangong Zhurong was eight years old and Nangong Yihui named him the crown prince. After he moved into the Eastern Palace, the contrast became even more obvious.

Many court officials began to implicate Nangong Zhurong, saying that he was not worthy of the position of crown prince and was not the son of the Empress Dowager. Many court officials also began to show goodwill to Nangong Zhurong and frantically belittled Nangong Chiyang.

The meaning of the names of the two noble princes was brought up at this time.

The Flame Nation reveres fire, and the eldest prince is named Chiyang. It was thought that he would be the crown prince, but he is in Prince Lin's palace.

From this perspective, the emperor named the prince Zhu Rong, which is a metaphor for the ancient god Zhurong.

Because there were so many voices, these discussions naturally reached the ears of the two princes.

The young men who used to study and practice martial arts, archery and horse riding together are gradually drifting apart under the trend of the times.

Nangong Chiyang began to be sent to various military camps to command wars, traveled far with the imperial envoys for disaster relief, bestowed favors on the people, ran around everywhere, was assassinated many times, fell off a cliff, and sank to the bottom of the sea.

He had experienced betrayal by the secret guards he grew up with, and his closest confidants died before his eyes.

The first time Hua Wuying saved him, he was hit by two arrows in the heart and was almost burned to ashes by fire.

The second time Hua Wuying saved him, he was poisoned and was dying.

Nangong Chiyang heard that his younger brother was in the imperial city, sitting peacefully in front of the palace, being entertained by his father the emperor and his mother the empress, being revered by thousands of people and being bowed to by court officials.

He once had resentment, but when he thought about it carefully, his younger brother was younger than him at the time and had no choice.

Nangong Chiyang had seen refugees from famine and plague, as well as many displaced beggars, and had experienced life-and-death situations.

So, he can take it easy.

What about holding imperial power, having tremendous authority, being loved by parents, and being praised by everyone.

There is nothing important except life and death.

After Nangong Zhurong was named the crown prince, the brothers hardly met each other for ten years. Nangong Chiyang couldn't say how much he liked his younger brother, but he no longer blamed him.

"Has the emperor had dinner yet? You just came back, and I see the mansion is rather deserted. Why don't you come to my place so that I can give you a good welcome." Nangong Zhurong seemed sincere.

Nangong Chiyang refused very straightforwardly, "I've already eaten, no need to bother."

People who have transcended this mundane world will naturally not rack their brains to be euphemistic.

Nangong Zhurong nodded without any displeasure.

Nangong Zhurong's gaze fell on Si Qingyu. He smiled very friendly and asked politely, "Royal brother, I wonder who this girl is...?"

Si Qingyu sent a message to Nangong Chiyang, "Big Brother, tell him that my name is Yu Qingsi, and I'm a miracle doctor. I saved you, and I escorted you all the way back to Beijing."

Nangong Chiyang told Nangong Zhurong according to Si Qingyu's words.

The only one who knew the truth was Nangong Yihui, but Si Qingyu was certain that the emperor had sent everyone away at that time and would not tell anyone, so she could talk nonsense.

Nangong Zhurong bowed to Si Qingyu and thanked her for saving his royal brother.

Si Qingyu responded generously, "Sure, sure. It's nothing to do."

After Si Qingyu finished speaking, he moved closer to Nangong Chiyang, put his hand on Nangong Chiyang's back, and said to him, "Come on, senior brother, cough twice for him."

Nangong Chiyang: “???”

Although he didn't understand, Nangong Chiyang did as he was told.

Si Qingyu frowned, very into the play, "Your Highness, your injury has not healed yet, you should go back to your room to rest and take your medicine well."

Nangong Chiyang hummed, very cooperatively. It just happened that he was about to be unable to continue acting.

Nangong Zhurong saw this and asked with concern, "Excuse me, young lady, what happened to my brother?"

Si Qingyu smiled and said, "It's just an old illness. I need to rest and recuperate. It's nothing serious."

Nangong Zhurong suddenly realized, "Then my Royal Brother, please go back to your room and have a rest. I will come to visit you again tomorrow."

Nangong Chiyang wanted to refuse, but he heard Si Qingyu's voice transmission to him, "Big Brother, don't refuse, let him come!"

The next day.

As expected, Nangong Zhurong came and brought several carts of good stuff, including various precious medicinal materials, and countless gold, silver and jewelry.

Nangong Chiyang had a meal with the prince. After the meal, Nangong Chiyang coughed twice and said to Nangong Zhurong, "Your Highness, I am not feeling well and should not leave the house.

Miss Yu has just arrived in the capital. If she goes out to play, I hope you can take care of her when it is convenient."
