Chapter 17: The Holy Will Is Unfathomable

Zhuo Yichen never asked about the origin of this jade.But Zhuo Yun often looked at this thing, and lost his mind after looking at it several times.

This thing is not important, Zhuo Yichen doesn't believe it.

Seeing the worried look on his brother's face, Zhuo Yun smiled and said, "What are you doing with a sour face? This is a good thing. I should thank you. Actually, you are helping me."

"Will you exchange the only precious thing for silver?"

"It's just something outside of me, my only precious thing, and it's still by my side."

He turned his head and looked at Zhuo Yichen with a smile, his eyes were full of brilliance.

Zhuo Yichen looked at the jade in his hand, and then at Zhuo Yun in front of him.He jumped out of bed suddenly, stuffed the piece of jade back into the box, then closed the box door forcefully and locked it.

Seeing that Zhuo Yichen still disagreed, Zhuo Yun said bluntly: "Brother, you are much more important than that thing. I just want to make you happy."

"But I must not want this," Zhuo Yichen still shook his head firmly, "I'll think of a way to get the money, at worst, I'll have the cheek to borrow some from the Shao Mansion first. But this jade is your only keepsake, if you don't have this, Do you still have a sense of belonging here?"

Zhuo Yun asked in surprise: "Sense of belonging?"

Zhuo Yichen explained: "I know you are no longer the 'Zhuo Yun' from before, but this is the end of the matter, you and I must live on. Good or bad, you still have a token to place your thoughts on. That piece of jade is What really belongs to you. But I am here, but nothing really belongs to me. That feeling... like I am just a bystander, and it seems that I don't belong here."

Zhuo Yun looked at his brother with a little surprise.Although this person doesn't ask questions, he sees many things clearly.

"You're right," Zhuo Yun chuckled, feeling a sense of mutual comfort in his heart, "but you still have a word wrong. That piece of jade doesn't really belong to me, and I'm in the same situation as you."

He held Zhuo Yichen's hand, pulled him back to the bed, stuffed him into the quilt again, and lay down beside him.

Zhuo Yun's palm was very hot.

"Up to now, I haven't heard the news of my own death. This shows that the person who killed me may not be the Zhuang family."

Hearing this, Zhuo Yichen's heart skipped a beat and he shivered.He immediately turned his head to look at Zhuo Yun nervously, but Zhuo Yun looked indifferent.In contrast, the speaker is much calmer than the listener.

"The Zhuang family? The Zhuang family with power over the court?" Zhuo Yichen has been here for a long time, and he must have heard of the prosperous Zhuang family, although he doesn't know the details.

"You...you have a problem with the Zhuang family?" Zhuo Yichen had already guessed that Zhuo Yun's status was either rich or noble, but he still didn't know what it was.

"Which power struggle needs any celebration?"

Zhuo Yichen was silent for a while, "Could it be that the people on your side suppressed the matter? Isn't it a good thing that no news of the death was released?"

Zhuo Yun said lightly: "A good thing? Maybe..."

If his death was really caused by Concubine Zhuang, that woman would make it known all over the city.Zhuo Yun had already taken precautions against Concubine Zhuang, so how could he easily fall for it?Zhuo Yun thought that there was no Concubine Zhuang's eyeliner in his Yulin Palace.And that woman's methods are really not enough. Sending the eunuchs in the palace to harm people outside the palace is completely stupid. How can this kind of method alone kill him?Drugs, food, and even every item he touches in Yuxiu Palace must be carefully tested for drugs in advance.Zhuo Yun concluded that Concubine Zhuang did not have the ability to let him die quietly.

Therefore, Zhuo Yun thought of another person.King Jing.

This uncle with a different surname can be described as ambitious.He didn't pay attention to the imperial court at all, privately recruited troops and horses, and secretly prepared for war!All kinds of actions have already proved that he really has the heart of disobedience!King Jing, who is brave and good at fighting and has made great contributions, has now become a serious threat to the court.

If the country has no heir, King Jing will get rid of the emperor in the name of beheading the faint king, and he will become the lord of the country.But if the prince is still there, it will be much more difficult!

Since ancient times, the establishment of the East Palace has the effect of stabilizing the country, because it can restrain the evildoers.

Even if King Jing could lead the army to serve the king under the guise of "eliminating the faintness of the country", he did not have any legitimate reason to kill the young crown prince. Once the crown prince also died under his sword, it would not be "eliminating the faintness of the country". Instead, he settled down on the crime of killing the king and stealing the country!Infamy through the ages!Therefore, the prince must die quietly.

If Zhuo Yun knew that Prince Jing threatened Taichang Temple Minister to inquire about the situation of the East Palace under the pretext of offering sacrifices, he would only be more certain of his speculation.King Jing sent someone to poison him, but he didn't know whether the prince was really poisoned to death.The emperor sealed the matter tightly, only saying that the prince was sick and recuperating.Even an ant can't crawl out of the Yulin Palace today, let alone someone capable of delivering the news.

However, how to convince the hesitant treacherous officials and the covetous King Jing that the prince is really just sick?

The emperor appointed Zhuang Yan as Prime Minister of the Left, and handed over the Phoenix Seal to Concubine Zhuang, and the Zhuang family lost power for a while.If the prince really died, how could the emperor not grieve?How can you have the mind to support foreign ministers?But they all underestimated the ability of the royal family. After the crown prince died, a second or third one could be established, but no one was allowed to use this to shake the country.Favoring this thing can make people paralyzed and dizzy.As a result, the Zhuang family and Prince Jing couldn't see the current situation clearly, only felt it was more confusing.

"Now that the Zhuang family is favored by the emperor, isn't it bad for your faction?" Zhuo Yichen asked again worriedly.

"No," Zhuo Yun hooked the corners of his mouth sarcastically, "Once the emperor favors someone, he actually wants that person to die. You can see what happened to Marquis Wu Lie. No matter how big he is, how can he be more powerful than the imperial power? A truly wise person , you will know how to suppress your own limelight and power, and you must not arouse the emperor's fear. The reason why the emperor favors the Zhuang family is just to paralyze the Zhuang family and King Jing, so that King Jing hesitates, and buys time for the deployment of soldiers to kill When the time comes, it will be eradicated by the roots. The nine clans will be implicated, and no one will be left behind."

Zhuo Yun's light last words made Zhuo Yichen shiver.

It's too cruel to implicate the nine clans.

Zhuo Yun said: "Don't worry, nothing will happen to Zhuo's family, the big tree attracts the wind. And I suspect..." He stopped suddenly when he said this.

Zhuo Yichen asked: "What do you suspect?"

Zhuo Yun did not speak.

In fact, what he suspects is that the emperor has already learned about the "mystery of twin lives".In the Great Inner Palace, there are eyeliners of the current emperor everywhere, which thing can really escape the emperor's eyes?It is a great blessing that the Zhuo family ended up being reduced to a commoner in the power strife.At first, Zhuo Yun thought it was because the Zhuo family wasn't so big, but now that he thought about it, the emperor might have done it on purpose.Besides, they are powerless, but they can live a stable life in the countryside and outskirts.Obviously on the day of Zhuo Yun's rebirth, Concubine Zhuang dared to send someone to harm her, so wouldn't Zuo Xiang Zhuang Yan and Prince Jing be able to deal more serious murder?But Zhuo Yun is safe and sound until now, not only him, but everyone in the Zhuo family is also safe and sound.Zhuo Yun didn't believe it was just because of "ancestors accumulated virtue".This may indicate that someone is secretly protecting.

Zhuo Yun boldly guessed that this was the emperor's order.

However, since the emperor already knew that this was the prince's twin brother, why didn't he send someone to bring him back to the palace?

Zhuo Yun guessed that there were two reasons.First, the imperial court and King Jing are at war with each other, and a little carelessness will lead to catastrophe. Keeping people outside the palace can actually protect them.Second, the emperor didn't have that much affection for this son who was not raised in the palace, maybe he wanted to test how ambitious this son who was living outside was?Or maybe he doesn't really want to make the wandering prince the new crown prince.For a prince who is too ambitious, the emperor would rather enclose him for the rest of his life than take him back to the palace as the crown prince.Since ancient times, which emperor likes to form a clique with ambitious people?That kind of person would even threaten the supreme imperial power.

Once beyond the imperial power, it is death.So what if they are father and son?I'm afraid it will be removed soon.

If the emperor knew about this matter, but he did not let people recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors.The intent of the test couldn't be more obvious, how dare Zhuo Yun take the initiative to return to his position?I'm afraid that the emperor will be extremely jealous from now on, thinking that this son will come to grab the dragon chair from him!

So Zhuo Yun was extremely thankful that he did not act rashly.The time Master Jimin came to make trouble at home, he had no choice but to behave himself, and no longer rushed back to the palace.Thinking about it now, that step was actually not bad at all.

The mind of the emperor is unfathomable, and Zhuo Yun may not have fully grasped the meaning of the emperor.But the emperor is patiently waiting, so all he can do now is wait, and wait peacefully.

How could this younger brother of the prince who lived outside the palace show his sharpness before entering the palace?In fact, there are very few emperors who are in their prime really want to establish a crown prince, and they have to do so in order to stabilize the country and the society.A prince who keeps his own place and is even mediocre and undisputed is the best candidate for the heir apparent in the emperor's mind.

After getting rid of Prince Jing, the emperor might take him, the "obedient" prince, back to the palace.It's just that this kind of probing and waiting made Zhuo Yun unavoidably disheartened.He remembered that the emperor still doted on his former self, so why was he so indifferent to this miserable brother?

Zhuo Yichen tugged at Zhuo Yun's sleeve, and then called him out of his thoughts.

Zhuo Yichen urged: "You continue what you just said."

It was rare for Zhuo Yun to see that Zhuo Yichen was so interested in things other than cooking, he turned over with a smile, and hugged her in his arms.

"You don't have to worry about so much, prepare for your famous knife meeting. You must enter the palace!"

Zhuo Yichen thought for a while, then raised his face and asked, "Do you want me to enter the palace to help you sue? Okay, I will do my best..."

Zhuo Yun's eyes stayed on his brother's lips.

In fact, this sentence really made people laugh. Zhuo Yun didn't need someone to sue him for impeachment. He just thought of the time to tie this person logically and let him stay by his side forever.

His stupid brother is so stupid...

So what if his aloof father treats him indifferently?So what if the people in the palace are cold?

As long as he has this brother, it is enough.

Zhuo Yun couldn't help but hugged him tightly again and again, pressing his face against Zhuo Yichen's neck.

I don't know if it's because of his psychology, since he wanted this person, Zhuo Yun always felt that he could smell a unique smell in the other person, which was alluring, and he couldn't stop.

I really want to eat...

Zhuo Yun's eyes were getting darker and darker, but Zhuo Yichen didn't see it, he remembered another thing, and asked: "When you brought me hot water, it looked weird, why did you still splash it with water? I?"

Zhuo Yun was dragged back to reality by his annoying brother, and he replied, "The scene at that time was like a dream." , this scene is simply too unreal, okay?

Zhuo Yichen didn't look into it carefully, but asked with a smile: "Then did you wake up after pouring the water?"

"Wake up," Zhuo Yun paused, then pointed out, "I realized that this is not a daydream."

Zhuo Yichen naturally didn't understand the deep meaning of this sentence.

Zhuo Yun thought to himself, if this was just a dream, the scene would be many times more beautiful!Anyway, he should be in the water too.

Zhuo Yichen didn't know Zhuo Yun's wicked thoughts, so after saying a few words, he stopped making jokes and said, "Going to sleep."

Zhuo Yun got out of bed and blew out the candle, then came up lightly.

Zhuo Yichen closed his eyes and fell asleep quickly, and after the two of them were quiet for a while, he breathed evenly.

After his brother fell asleep, Zhuo Yun slowly opened his eyes again, staring at the people around him intently.

"It doesn't matter if you don't belong here." He pressed a kiss on Zhuo Yichen's forehead and closed his eyes again, "As long as you belong to me."
