After I feel sorry for the cannon fodder prince, I wear a book

The dark cell was covered with piles of dirty straw, and the stone wall was cold and hard. A pale man was leaning against the wall, his long hair was loose, and dried blood was hanging from the corner of his mouth.

A jailer pushed open the cell door: "Your Highness, the emperor is here."

The man didn't move, he just raised his eyelids and looked at the man behind the jailer.

"Father."

Yu Yinjiang frowned, his voice sounded hoarse: "I'm here—"

"Where's Xiao Tan?" The man interrupted him impatiently, as if he didn't care at all why the Ninth Five Lord came to this dirty, bloody prison full of dead people.

"You still only think about Xiao Qin!? I have loved you for so many years, and you did this kind of thing!" Yu Yinjiang finally couldn't help shouting angrily. The impenitent attitude was quenched.

The man closed his eyes irritably, not intending to answer his words.

Yu Yinjiang laughed angrily, said "yes" several times, and said: "You care about Xiao Tan, I tell you, he has already returned to Prince Xiao's mansion!"

"Oh, back to Prince Xiao's mansion, is it safe or not? Your Majesty wants to punish him, or not?" The man finally had a reaction when he heard the words, and tried to stand up while leaning against the wall.

"You know what I mean." Yu Yinjiang calmed down, with pity in his eyes, "Sometimes I wonder if I have spoiled you, and I can't even see right from wrong."

"You think that Xiao Tan is a lover just like you, but he can see the situation more clearly than you!"

The man hadn't had a drop of water or rice for a few days, and he finally had no strength to stand up.He fell down on the straw, panting heavily, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth: "The dying person, but he has thought through his last thoughts, why does the emperor use these lies to disgust me."

Yu Yinjiang shook his head, as if he had nothing to say, "You know if it's a lie or not."

"You, you really let me down." After finishing speaking, Yu Yinjiang walked away in a huff.

disappointment?What are you disappointed about? Disappointed that he "doesn't know people clearly"?Disappointed that he "rebelled against the law, and offended the next"?Or is he disappointed that he doesn't understand tactics, and that he is going to die in this prison at the very beginning of seizing the throne?

After Yu Yinjiang left, the cell became silent again.The man laughed at himself, and turned his head to look at a beam of light leaking from the skylight.

He knew what Yu Yinjiang meant, but he didn't think it was true, Xiao Tan would not harm him.

He was just rejoicing, rejoicing that his unfinished words would never have a chance to be uttered again. Now that the two of them are inevitably separated, why use his so-called sincerity to waste that person's good time...

……

"Your Highness, Your Highness—" Duan Fangzhu called Yu Yi softly, being careful not to wake Xiao Qin up.

The Eldest Young Master was tired after guarding His Highness all night, so he should take a good rest.

"Yeah." Yu Yi frowned, pulling herself out of the dream with difficulty, and relieving herself from the dizziness when she just woke up.

Xu was pissed off by Xiao Tan today. For the first time since he was reborn, he dreamed about the things in his previous life.It's no wonder that Yu Yinjiang would say the word "disappointment". In his dream, he was too stupid and foolish. He was deceived by someone, and he vowed to speak for that person.

"Your Highness," Duan Fangzhu brought a cup of tea to Yu Yi, and said, "Yue Yang is waiting outside the door."

"Well, let him go to the study, I'll be there right away." Yu Yi's voice was hoarse, the cold from yesterday hadn't subsided, and he didn't sleep well at night.

He propped himself up, saw Duan Fangzhu about to push the wheelchair over, frowned and said: "It's only a few steps, no need to take a wheel... why is he here!?"

Yu Yi looked over with gloomy eyes. Xiao Tan was sitting at the table, with his back straight and his head propped on one hand, sleeping soundly.

"Your Highness, Eldest Young Master guarded you all night yesterday. Changing clothes and feeding tea are all done by yourself, and the servants are not allowed to touch it."

Duan Fangzhu showed a gratified smile as he spoke. He also grew up watching Yu Yi. If you ask him to say, the emperor's marriage is a good one, and the eldest son is really safe and caring.

The corner of Yu Yi's mouth twitched, and he pressed the veins on his forehead, barely suppressing the breath.

Logically speaking, the two had just met now, so he couldn't treat Xiao Tan too badly, otherwise it would arouse suspicion.

After all, when something like this happened to the crown prince, no one dared to host a wedding banquet, let alone his younger brother.After this period of time passes, he still finds an excuse to bring Xiao Qi into the house. As for Xiao Tan, he can go wherever he likes, and do whatever he likes. As long as he doesn't stand next to him or get close to him, he doesn't bother to go. Tube.

"Clean up a room for him and let him sleep there." Yu Yi put on her clothes, picked up the cloak on the chair, and went out.

"Okay——" Duan Fangzhu saw him off behind him, his eyes were almost squeezed out of his smile, His Highness felt distressed, he took care of Yu Yi for so many years, and this was the first time he saw someone he cared about.

Yu Yi didn't know what Duan Fang Zhunao had done. He pressed his collar and walked quickly to the study against the bone-chilling winter wind in the north.

The Huayu Tower exploded yesterday, and everyone who knew the news was still locked in the palace, and now only he and Xiao Qin have been released.

In the previous life, this case involved a lot of people, after many investigations, Yu Yi was finally found, and only then was Yu Yinjiang exposed it lightly with thunder and rain.

The mastermind behind the scenes did this very cleverly. The evidence presented at the beginning seemed to have nothing to do with Yu Yi. It was just an ordinary jade pendant. It was from Yu Yi's hands.

In his previous life, he was too naive, he didn't continue to investigate after the accident, and he didn't know who planned the case until he died, but it doesn't matter, the one who can benefit after the crown prince is disabled is nothing more than that person...

"master!"

As soon as he entered the door, Yu Yi saw Yue Yang kneeling on the ground.

"Get up, what did you find?" Yu Yi closed the door, sat down at the desk with a chill in her body, and sipped the hot tea prepared by Duan Fangzhu.

"Master, when the crown prince had an accident, the woman who was with him was indeed the court lady you gave the jade pendant before, that jade pendant..." Yue Yang seemed to be hesitant, which clearly meant that someone wanted to use that palace maid to frame him. , I'm afraid His Highness will be angry if I say it.

"Well, I know that, but you can find out who the court lady had contacted before." Yu Yi asked lightly.

He had already forgotten about this.The palace maid, Azhi, was originally the maidservant of the concubine mother. A few years ago, Yu Yi bumped into her when she was offering sacrifices to the concubine in the palace, and rewarded her with a jade pendant.He was only ten years old then.

"Returning to the master, Azhi was released from the palace and turned into a brothel. His subordinates questioned the people in Huayulou. They said that Azhi had only received one guest the day before the incident, and he didn't look like a rich man with his clothes. , but the shot was very generous, and someone has already been sent to investigate."

Yu Yi nodded, it is not difficult to know who this person is, but how to bring the evidence to the court without a trace, and how much the evidence can implicate that person, the key lies in the power of the court .

But the problem is that he has just been reborn not long ago, so it can be said that he has no manpower. In his previous life, he had no intention of power, and was innocent and innocent. It's not that the ministers of the court and China did not want to make friends with him, but he blocked them all openly and secretly.

But it is not difficult to do.

The position of the crown prince was stable before, and there was nothing wrong with supervising the country several times. Naturally, the ministers of the court and central government wanted to support the crown prince.

He Yuyi has no influence, and the third prince naturally has no influence, it depends on who moves quickly, after all, their natal families... are all Prince Xiao's mansion now.

"It shouldn't be difficult to find out the identity of that person, just find someone to watch him, and you can do another thing for me."

"Yes." Yue Yang agreed neatly, wondering what would happen this time?Go to the south of the Yangtze River to search for the traces of the items left by the concubine Xiang when she was among the people?Or has His Highness had enough of the novelties he found last time?I heard that an eldest son has recently come to the house, he is His Highness's sweetheart, shouldn't it be...

"Secretly, the news was released, saying that Duan Wang's Mansion is recruiting dead soldiers. Anyone who is desperate, has old, weak, sick and disabled relatives who cannot take care of them, and anyone who wants to make money, you can try it."

……what! ?

Yue Yang was thinking wildly, when he heard the words, he suddenly raised his head, and happened to meet Shang Yu Yi's eyes that had turned ice-like, for a moment he didn't dare to look at him, and lowered his head in panic.

Your Highness, is this enough?Do you want to get down to business?

Yue Yang was a little excited.

Although since you have recognized Yu Yi as the master, you should not complain no matter what you do, but who doesn't desire to make contributions, who doesn't desire to make their own abilities useful, and who is willing to sign a life-and-death contract, but they can only do it for him every day. Master doing something fun?

"Subordinate...obey." He suddenly knelt down and solemnly saluted Yu Yi.

His Highness's move today is to announce to them that the people in Duanwangfu are about to start working.

*****

When Xiao Tan woke up, he found himself lying on a strange bed, and the surrounding furnishings were somewhat similar to his bedroom before he put on the book.

Suddenly, he thought that he had really had a big dream, and he was dazed for a while, until he was sure that his body was not tired or weak, and then turned over and sat up.

"Eldest son, the slave came in to change your clothes?" Duan Fangzhu was guarding the door when he heard a knock on the door.

"En." Xiao Qin sat on the edge of the bed, straightening his somewhat messy neckline.

Yu Yi lost his mother since he was a child, and Yu Yinjiang was busy with court affairs, so he couldn't be with him all the time. When he was a child, Yu Yi was always surrounded by two people, the Queen Mother and Duan Fangzhu.

The queen mother was in good health in the early years, and she went everywhere with anxiety. Later, she got old and lost her mental strength. Duan Fangzhu almost followed her every day, and took him to the emperor and the queen mother to pay her respects sooner or later.

In Yu Yi's eyes, he is the closest relative besides the emperor and queen mother.

Xiao Qin was a little nervous, afraid that if he did something wrong, Duan Fangzhu would feel unworthy of Yu Yi.

"My lord, breakfast is ready, shall we go eat with His Highness?" Duan Fangzhu asked tentatively while straightening his belt.

Xiao Qin nodded as a matter of course, and naturally he should eat with Yu Yi.

So when the conscientious Second Highness finally discussed the next step with Yue Yang and went back to the bedroom to have breakfast, he saw Xiao Qin dressed in brocade, with a face like a crown of jade, sitting at the table talking to Duan Fangzhu. Is waiting for him to eat.

"Your Highness, do you have any special hobbies?" Xiao Qin asked earnestly.

"Your Highness knows a lot of things, but there are only a few things you really like, such as martial arts, archery, horse riding..." Duan Fangzhu cheerfully added a cup of tea to Xiao Qin.

"Practicing martial arts? Your Highness is not in good health, can you do these things?" Xiao Qin was a little puzzled.

"Of course it can't be done, but—"

"Duan Fangzhu!" Yu Yi couldn't bear it anymore.

"Oh, sit down quickly, Your Highness. You went to discuss things in the morning without using anything. How can your body bear it..." Duan Fangzhu hurriedly sat down with Yu Yi's arm, and ordered the waiting maid to pass on the meal.

Yu Yi glanced at him in dismay, thinking how old she was, why would she still bother about the love of her children? The clothes Xiao Qin wore, the jade pendant around his waist, and the jade crown on his head were probably all paragraphs. Fang Zhu figured out his preferences to arrange.

"Your Highness." Xiao Tan greeted warmly, looked at the pale face of the person in front of him, and frowned slightly.

When he returned home yesterday, obviously, his complexion was not so ugly.

He has been ill in bed for more than 20 years, and he can understand the pain of being sick for many years without improvement, but this His Highness is a little too careless about his body.

Yu Yi turned her head to avoid the gentle smile on Xiao Qin's mouth and the faint worry between her brows.

In his last life, he was deceived by this person's face, and he missed and worried about him, so he felt as if someone really liked him.

It can't be blamed that he was too pure in the previous life. Anyone who looked at Xiao Qin's eyes that seemed to be full of stars would be moved by it.

"Since you have come to the mansion, you must abide by the rules of the mansion. Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, don't look at what you shouldn't look at, and don't do what you shouldn't do." Yu Yi drank the porridge with her eyes downcast, expressionless. Said.

"Yes, Xiao Tan remembered."

Xiao Tan was a little amused, why didn't he remember that the Second Highness in the original book liked to pretend to be this kind of majesty.

"Yesterday in the palace, Your Highness..." Xiao Qin paused, as if he didn't know how to continue.

Yu Yi glanced at him, in the palace yesterday?What happened in the palace?This man was so restless that he began to inquire about news for Xiao Zhengze as soon as he came to the mansion.

It was right to think about it, Xiao Zhengze was not able to go to the East Palace yesterday, and the prince didn't know what was going on, so he must be in a hurry.

Yesterday Xiao Qin knelt down and begged his father to follow him back to the mansion, maybe he was instructed by Xiao Zhengze to pass the news out of the palace, and stay in Duanwang mansion to monitor his movements.

It really kills two birds with one stone.

"Your Highness, how did Xiao Tan behave yesterday?"

...?

How did it perform?

What is this asking?

Yu Yi didn't realize it for a while, and frowned at Xiao Tan.

The latter looked back quietly, with a suave look on his brows.

"It's okay." After a long while, he said something indifferent.

Xiao Tan laughed when he heard this, of course he wouldn't ask Yu Yi about the situation in the East Palace, the original owner of the original book also asked, Yu Yi also said, and Xiao Zhengzheng knew about it the next day.

He didn't want Yu Yi to feel that he approached him just to use him.

Thinking of this, Xiao Qin picked up the chopsticks and first put a piece of coconut and date paste cake for Yu Yi.

This is Yu Yi's favorite snack. It is said that the concubine Xiang often made it for the emperor in the palace, and Yu Yi should have eaten it too, but she is too young to remember the taste of the jujube cake made by her mother.

"I don't like to eat it." Yu Yi put the jujube cake out in disgust, and continued to drink the porridge.

Not only Xiao Qin was stunned, but Duan Fangzhu was also stunned.

"Your Highness, this is the cake made of coconut paste and dates sent by the emperor this morning. You, don't you want to eat it?" Duan Fangzhu was a little puzzled. The taste and style should not have changed. Why did His Highness suddenly not like eating it.

Yu Yi didn't speak, she finished her porridge in two mouthfuls, stood up and went out.

"Your Highness, where are you going—" Duan Fangzhu chased after him with a cloak, "It's windy outside, so you need to put on some clothes first!"

"Go to the Ministry of War, don't follow." Yu Yi shouted impatiently, coughing a few times due to the wind.

The guard pushed the wheelchair over, and Yu Yi sat on it. Just as she was about to get into the carriage, she was covered with a fur coat.

It's hot, warm, just off Xiao Tan's body, still carrying his body temperature.

Yu Yi wanted to take it away, but Xiao Qin said warmly: "Your Highness, please wear it, it's too cold today."

People who have been ill for a long time are most afraid of the cold. In the past, Xiao Qin had to put on clothes while sitting in the house, but Yu Yi dared to wear a single shirt before going out. No wonder he caught wind and cold at every turn.

However, the original owner's health is indeed good. In the cold winter weather, he gave the fox fur to Yu Yi, and he didn't feel cold standing outside.

This feeling is a bit novel to Xiao Qin.

Yu Yi was covered by fur clothes, and slowly stopped coughing.

He looked at Xiao Tan's reddened eyes, first he was in a daze, and then he couldn't help laughing at himself.

He is too familiar with this scene, wearing a piece of clothing today, bringing a box of snacks tomorrow, taking care of him non-stop at night, and even shutting his eyes for days and nights, Xiao Tan has always been very good at these distressing little tricks .
