Ce Yu forgets his worries for a thousand days

He thought of the golden needle that he had lost on Rin Kong City in a daze.

If I choose the senior brother, will I never be able to step into the legendary city, and will never have the opportunity to explore the hidden side of that person's heart?

There is some reluctance in my heart.

Zhou Yu forced himself not to think about the person beside him.He opened the window, and the cool wind blew slowly, and his heart calmed down a little.

"Tomorrow, I want to go to Banxi Village to take a look. It was the people there who saved my brother and me before." Zhou Yu said.

"Well, I'll accompany you." Sun Ce's tone was still light, and no emotion could be heard.

Zhou Yu opened his mouth, but finally did not say the words of rejection.

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in." Sun Ce said.

It was a middle-aged man who opened the door and entered. Although he was dressed as a junior, his rough clothes could not hide the heroic spirit between his brows.

Zhou Yu thought to himself that he should not be an ordinary person.

Sure enough, after the man came in, he turned around and closed the door, knelt down on one knee towards Sun Ce, and said, "See the owner of the door."

"Well," Sun Ce nodded to signal him to get up, and asked, "How is the investigation going?"

The man tilted his head and glanced at Zhou Yu, hesitant.

"But it doesn't matter."

A look of surprise flashed in the man's eyes, "Yes."

"Cao Mengde, King of Pingyang, is the elder brother of the current emperor. His mother was a court lady, and died of dystocia when she gave birth to him. Because of his humble status, he was not favored by the late emperor since he was a child, so his temper is different from ordinary people... a little different."

"Oh? What's the difference?" Sun Ce asked curiously.

The middle-aged man blushed, and stammered: "When I have sex with people..., I often take pleasure in abusing them. Therefore, he is over thirty...and has never married a wife."

Zhou Yu was not very surprised by what he said. If it hadn't been for the sadism, Guo Jia would not have fallen into such a situation.

"In my opinion, no one dares to marry him," Zhou Yu said.

"...Yes. However, it seems that the Pingyang Prince's Mansion is preparing for a happy event recently, but there has been no movement in the past few days."

Sun Ce and Zhou Yu looked at each other.

Could it be for Guo Jia?

But even if he is not favored anymore, as a prince, how could he hold a wedding for a man regardless of his status.

"The bride ran away?" Zhou Yu guessed.

"No," the man shook his head, "the rumor is... the prince is crazy."

These words took the two of them by surprise.

"Have you ever checked?" Sun Ce asked.

"Too short a time, never."

Sun Ce nodded, "Where are the things?"

Hearing this, the man immediately took out a neatly folded white silk from his pocket and spread it on the table.Zhou Yu took a closer look, and saw that the silk had a bird's-eye view of Pingyang Palace.In just one hour, the people from Qingmen were able to collect so much information that Zhou Yu had to admire Sun Ce's ability with admiration.

The man pointed to a few places on the map and said, "This is Cao Mengde's bedroom. When the subordinates went to visit, he stayed behind closed doors in the study. There are so many people in the daytime that there is no chance to sneak in."

"Well, you go down."

"Yes."

After the man left, Zhou Yu put away the map of the palace and asked Sun Ce, "Do you think he is really crazy?"

Guo Jia was bruised all over by his torture, but he himself went crazy later on, this is too strange.

"Whether it's true or not, you'll know when you check it out," Sun Ce said.

Zhou Yu smiled, tapped his foot, jumped out of the window, and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye.

Sun Ce raised the corner of his mouth, moved his body, and followed him.

Night visit

The defense of the Pingyang Prince's Mansion was not relaxed at night. After sneaking in, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce hid in a huge rockery in the garden, and patrolling guards walked by from time to time, which made it difficult for the two to take any further action.

At this time, a man humming a little tune came from a distance.

"Hey, brothers have worked hard." This should be said to the guard.

The man didn't get a response, but his good mood didn't seem to be affected by this, and he continued to walk leisurely.

"Tsk tsk tsk, this time, my lord, don't be moved by the truth."

As soon as the man's voice fell, a footstep came from far to near, panicking towards the man.The man stopped, turned around, and said with a smile, "My lord."

Could it be that the prince is here?

The two held their breath and continued to listen.

The man ran up to the man and stopped, panting continuously, he must be very tired.

"I said Master Chen, why are you still hanging around here!" The man sounded like he was older than the man.

The man smiled, "Since the marriage is over, I can only hang out here."

"Hush!" The man hurriedly covered the man's mouth, "You don't think things are messy enough, do you?"

"Am I not telling the truth?" the man asked back.

"Oh," the man sighed, "you and I can't figure out what the prince is thinking. Just go ahead and prepare. If the prince thinks about it again one day, you can be prepared."

It turned out that he was not Cao Mengde.

"Okay, okay," the man said helplessly, "It's just that I think it's better for me to make the wedding dress a size bigger, maybe the prince will beat him up again..." Halfway through the words, the man was covered by the man again Mouth.

"You don't want your head anymore? The prince tolerates you, but tolerance has a limit."

"Ahem, yes yes, thank you Lord Xun for your teaching, I will prepare now." The man still looked fearless, and the man couldn't help sighing after hearing this.

After the people around had gone far away, Zhou Yu said in a voice that they could only hear: "Listening to the conversation between those two, Cao Mengde doesn't seem to be crazy, and the happy event was indeed prepared for Ah Yin."

Sun Ce nodded, "There is no one at this time, let's go."

The two flew out from behind the rockery and headed towards Cao Mengde's study, but encountered another group of guards on the road, so they had no choice but to turn around and enter a separate courtyard.

No one lives in the courtyard, and there are no guards patrolling here, but red lanterns and curtains are hung in front of the gate.Zhou Yu guessed that this was the residence reserved by Cao Mengde for Guo Jia.

Various deeds encountered after entering the mansion show that Cao Mengde is not without feelings for Guo Jia.However, this person's psychology is too distorted and perverted. Even if Guo Jia is redeemed by him, life will definitely not be easy afterwards.

But Guo Jia... seemed to have a crush on him too, which made things even more difficult.

Hearing the footsteps of the guards in the distance gradually fading away, Zhou Yu just wanted to leave this place, but was held back by Sun Ce.

"Don't want to go in and have a look?"

Although I don't know why Sun Ce suddenly asked this question, but it also aroused Zhou Yu's curiosity, so the two quietly walked into the main house.

Pushing open the door, a scent of bamboo came blowing to my face.The house is not very big, but what is surprising is that all the objects in the house, from tables, chairs and beds to teapots, are all made of bamboo.

Sun Ce closed the door behind Zhou Yu, turned into a ball of light and held it up in his hand, and the dim light illuminated the whole room. Only then did Zhou Yu realize that no matter it was on the ground, on the walls, or on the furnishings in the house, there were deliberate designs. Old traces.

"Why is there such a scene in the palace?" Sun Ce couldn't help being curious.

Indeed, although this room is elegant, it is really not suitable to appear in the royal residence, on the contrary, it is more like the home of ordinary people.

Zhou Yu suddenly remembered that when he chatted with Guo Jia before, he had talked about his life experience.

"Ayin is from Dian County, and his family makes a living selling bamboo products, so he is very poor. Later, his family had no choice but to sell him into Fengyuelou..." Zhou Yu said slowly.

Based on this, it is not difficult for the two of them to think that this house was built according to Guo Jia's previous home, Cao Mengde was really well-intentioned.

But thinking of the shocking scars on Guo Jia's body, Zhou Yu lost his affection for Cao Mengde again.

"Let's go."

All questions need to be answered by only one person.

It was late at night, and the lights in the study were still on. The two of them lay on the roof and listened carefully to the movement inside.

After a while, the footsteps of Mr. Xun just now sounded, and in the distance a man about 40 years old walked quickly from the direction of the garden and entered the study.

"My lord, I heard from the people in the building that a doctor suddenly came yesterday. After his diagnosis and treatment, the person is fine."

Zhou Yu knew that the doctor he was talking about was himself.

Cao Mengde heard this, but he didn't say anything, only Master Xun continued: "My lord, that quack doctor has already sent someone to kill him."

After a long silence in the room, Cao Mengde finally spoke.

"Xun Yu, tell me why this king has become like this..."

Listening to the tone of his speech, it is no different from a normal person, not only does not seem crazy, but there is a little guilt in his words.

"My lord was just impulsive." Xun Yu replied calmly.

"Oh, impulsive." Cao Mengde repeated his words with a smile, and then, the sound of drawing a sword came from the room.

"My lord! Never!" Xun Yu's voice suddenly turned into panic, and then he knelt down on the ground, holding Cao Mengde's sword hand firmly.

"If these hands are chopped off, I won't be impulsive anymore." Cao Mengde's tone was flat, but there was a hint of madness.

Sun Ce carefully removed a piece of tile in front of him, and the two of them could see everything in the house by lowering their heads.

I saw Cao Mengde holding the sword in his left hand and placing his right hand on the table. The sharp blade had already left a bloodstain on his wrist.

Zhou Yu now believes that he is a little crazy.

"My lord, please think twice!" Xun Yu didn't care about his dignity at this time, he grabbed the sword from Cao Mengde's hand and threw it on the ground, "If Mr. Guo wakes up and can't see his lord, how sad it would be."

Hearing Guo Jia's name, Cao Mengde seemed to wake up suddenly. He took a step back and sat down on the rattan chair. His bloody right hand trembled slightly, but his voice was very calm, with a little self-mockery, "I can't see this Wang... huh... is also a good thing."

"My lord! Think twice!"
