Chapter 3 The Idle Prince

Everything that happened afterwards was both something he had experienced and something he hadn't experienced.

Under the influence of strong drugs, he lost his sanity for a short time, and he was ups and downs in desire, but Si Yuanting was the only one who caught him.

Before last night, Si Yuanting gave him the opportunity to give up and escape, but in fact they knew each other very well that he had no way to escape. Since Chu Yuelei had murdered him, there was only one way left for him Walk.

So he forced himself to adapt to accept all the humiliation Si Yuanting brought him during several secret meetings with Si Yuanting.Si Yuanting is always testing the limits of what he can bear, time and time again, constantly destroying his previous bottom line, not allowing him to resist, only allowing him to learn how to be happy amidst a strong sense of shame.

And last night, driven by the effect of the medicine, he begged Si Yuanting not to stop, and in the end he was physically incontinent because he had nothing to vent, and he was humiliated to such an extent. He was mentally prepared, but he just didn't know if he would be completely destroyed in such seemingly endless humiliation one day.

Shaking his head, pulling his thoughts back from the memories of last night, Chu Yuezhi drank all the herbal tea in the tea bowl, and said to Zhou Ji: "The soldiers who were dismissed when I handed over the military power, how many trustworthy people are still willing to be recalled?" ?”

He has held the military power for ten years. He once trained an invincible team in the army to perform tasks that ordinary soldiers were unable to perform. Every soldier in that team was personally selected and trained by him. The fighters who can be left after the assessment and screening are capable of individual combat or teamwork, and they are the elite of the elite.

This team was formed secretly by him. Every soldier in it has absolute loyalty to him and only obeys his orders. Before handing over the military power, he was afraid that Chu Yuelei would make use of it after discovering the team. He was also afraid that Chu Yuelei would directly deal with the soldiers secretly because he could not drive the team, so when he decided to hand over the military power, he disbanded the team and ordered everyone to flee as far as possible immediately. In this way, he lives in peace in anonymity, or changes his face to become another person. In short, if he does not get his order, he will not be allowed to step into the capital for life to avoid accidents.

He only left Zhou Ji by his side, because Zhou Ji was the supreme commander of this team, and also the bodyguard who had been by his side since the day he entered the barracks, so he had absolute trust and confidence in Zhou Ji.

Zhou Ji raised his head, without showing too much emotion on his face, but the eyes that looked at Chu Yuezhi were clearly delighted, it seemed that what Chu Yuezhi asked was exactly what he had been waiting for all this time: "The Heron Camp All the soldiers, swear allegiance to the prince to the death, as long as the prince is willing to issue an edict, all of them will return to the camp!"

Turning the tea bowl in his hand, Chu Yuezhi tapped his chin with a smile that was not a smile, and said, "This king sees that the day will change, and it's time to let the herons go home."

"Subordinate, take orders."

Chu Yuezhi put down the tea bowl, clenched five fingers into fists, tapped his knuckles on the table a few times, and said, "Zhou Ji, get up and answer."

Although he grew up in the palace, countless eunuchs and court ladies knelt down to him since he was a child, but he never liked others kneeling down to talk to him.His biological mother was just an ordinary dancer, who was favored by the late emperor at the palace banquet, and she was pregnant twice with a dragon fetus. He was the lucky one who was born, and after he was born, he Fang's biological mother was promoted from talented person to concubine.His biological mother was a dancing girl, so he knew from a young age that he was not destined for the throne, so he never coveted the throne, let alone hold the world in his hands.I thought that after the emperor brother who protected me since childhood became the throne, I only had to fulfill the responsibilities of assisting him, but I never imagined that after seven years, I would eventually be like most princes in history, walking on the path of fate. The road to rebellion and usurpation.

Zhou Ji stood up, lowered his head again, only dared to look at Chu Yuezhi's toes like Shicai, and heard Chu Yuezhi say: "I remember, Fang Benhe has a son who just entered the Imperial Academy not long ago and became a relative last month." , I forgot what it was called."

"My lord, Fang Benhe's son is called Fang Zhili. Although he is well-learned, he is lustful by nature. His new wife is also from a famous family. He is already married, but he doesn't want his reputation to be tarnished by Fang Zhili's drinking. I was wronged to marry into Fang's family, and my subordinates heard that the woman was violent, she went on hunger strike and even mutilated herself before she got married, and in the end it was for the sake of the family that she had to follow." Zhou Ji went to investigate last night's incident this morning, and also included Fang's family's affairs After checking, it became clear that although Chu Yuezhi didn't say anything clearly, since he was asked to check, it was impossible to just check Fang Ben and this person.

"Naturally lustful, it sounds quite interesting." Chu Yuezhi supported the edge of the table and stood up, looking at the bruises on his wrists left by the iron chains, and said slowly: "Send someone to Fang Zhili and those dandies who liked to have fun with the king before spread the word, saying that the king has nothing to do these days, and heard that the new head of Yunnifang looks like a fish and a wild goose, not only proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also very Good at dancing, I am very interested in inviting you to go and appreciate it in the future."

He is an idle prince, and going to court is just a show, and since he has nothing to do on weekdays, he should enjoy the pleasure in time, and enjoy the extravagant and extreme happiness amidst the noise of the orchestra and the movement of hairpins, isn't it?

In the early morning of the next day, Chu Yuezhi asked for leave on the grounds of feeling unwell.

Another day later, Chu Yuezhi did not participate in the early court again for the same reason.

After the morning court, Chu Yuelei paced back and forth in the imperial study, while Si Yuanting stood aside with his hands down, his flat expression did not show much respect, more of an indifference that had nothing to do with him.

Chu Yuelei's face was gloomy, with his hands behind his back, and there were still many unapproved memorials on the desk, which had already been drafted by the cabinet and approved by the two eunuchs who held pens, and were only submitted after being reviewed and sealed by Si Yuanting The memorial that came up, but now, he has no intention of reviewing it.

After the palace banquet, he asked Fang Benhe to answer him, to make sure that Chu Yuezhi's meal at the palace banquet was indeed given the medicine as ordered.However, no matter whether it was at the palace banquet or after the palace banquet that night, Chu Yuezhi behaved normally, and he participated in the morning court the next day without any abnormality.

He has always ordered Si Yuanting to monitor Chu Yuezhi at all times, so when Si Yuanting replied, he also said that Chu Yuezhi had not taken any detoxification medicine before entering the palace to participate in the palace banquet, so why? Heavy medicine, but Chu Yuezhi is fine?

And for the past two days, she asked for leave consecutively and did not come to the morning court. Is it because she is really unwell, or is she using this to imply something else?

Stopping and pacing, Chu Yuelei turned around and glanced at Si Yuanting who was standing silently, and asked, "Si Yuanting, from what you can see, what is the meaning of my seventh younger brother not coming to the morning court for two days in a row? "

"I think that there are two possibilities for Prince An's move. One is that the medicine at the palace banquet that day did work, but it was forcibly suppressed by Prince An with internal strength. After all, Prince An was the emperor who commanded hundreds of thousands of troops. General, the cultivation of martial arts is not inferior to the minister, but forcibly suppressing the effect of medicine will definitely hurt the body, so he took leave of absence for two consecutive days on the grounds of being unwell." Si Yuanting told Chu Yuelei without changing his face. After preparing the speech, he deliberately paused for a while before continuing: "Secondly, although Prince An has not taken any action, he has already taken precautions against His Majesty and ministers, so he can avoid the medicine at the palace banquet, and now he is asking for leave. In the early court, I am afraid that Prince An will have a different heart under His Majesty's temptation."

"Different heart..." Chu Yuelei narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking of Chu Yuezhi, who was talking and laughing with him at the palace banquet, with such a defenseless and unintentional attitude, is it really just a show?

"Did I push him too hard? He has handed over his real power to become an idle prince as I hoped. Is it too much for me to try again?" Chu Yuelei turned his back again and muttered whisper.

These few words of his were asking himself, and there was no need for Si Yuanting's reply, and Si Yuanting knew it very well, so he put on the expression that he hadn't heard anything.

Chu Yuelei was anxious in his heart, he walked back and forth a few steps, pondered for a moment and then denied the idea just now: "He has held the military power in his hands for so many years, even though it has been three years now, he still has a very high prestige in the army Even if I take back the military power, so what, these hundreds of thousands of troops are not loyal to my righteous emperor, let alone he helped me usurp the throne in the past, so there is no guarantee that he will not usurp my throne in the future."

"Si Yuanting, you said he had a strange heart, what kind of strange heart did he have?" Chu Yuelei suddenly asked Si Yuanting again, the affirmative tone seemed not to doubt Chu Yuezhi, but to have already I am convinced that my seventh brother is going to rebel.

"Your Majesty, what is Prince An's different intentions? I dare not speak in vain. The eyeliner arranged by the minister in Prince An's mansion, as well as the people transferred from Dongchang to guard Prince An's mansion, did not report that Prince An had any abnormal behavior in the mansion in the past two days. Move." Si Yuanting said bluntly, the guards of Prince An's Mansion have five guards on the left, right, front, back and middle, with two people from a thousand households and ten people from a hundred households.As for the commander of the palace guards, there are six members from one thousand households, six members from one hundred households, and two 670 members from the Zhengqi Army.Half of them are from Dongchang. It can be said that they are called guards, but they are actually surveillance.

Chu Yuelei was still worried after hearing this, and asked, "What about Zhou Ji, did the bodyguard next to the seventh brother make any changes?"

Si Yuanting said: "Zhou Ji has always been in Prince An's residence, and never left."

"Is it really unwell?" Chu Yuelei asked himself again, but every word revealed strong suspicion. He touched the wrench in his hand, looked at Si Yuanting and asked: "With the keenness and intelligence of the seventh brother, You can definitely see that the drug was drugged at the palace banquet, probably with my order, but he didn't say it, Si Yuanting, what do you think he is thinking, and what is he planning behind my back?"

While Chu Yuelei was speaking, he took two consecutive steps towards Si Yuanting, and there was an aggressive coercion between his brows, which clearly meant that Si Yuanting would not let this question be perfunctory.

Si Yuanting didn't change his expression at all, he still had that indifferent expression, he bowed his head and bowed his hands in salute, and said: "Prince An now has no title, no real power and no ministers to follow him. Even if you know that the palace banquet was ordered by His Majesty, you will only continue to bear it."

For Si Yuanting's words, Chu Yuelei couldn't listen to a word. He had seen Chu Yuezhi commanding the army to respond to everyone's response. He was definitely not a thing in the pool. He said with absolute certainty: "No, definitely It's not that simple, my seventh younger brother has never been a weak and incompetent person, he is a person who will persevere even if he is at the end of his life, so I can't let him go, and I can't believe that he will be willing to be an idle prince!"

Si Yuanting raised his eyes, just in time to catch a glimpse of the coldness and ferocity in Chu Yuelei's eyes that were very similar to Chu Yuezhi when he returned to the desk and sat down. The madness and cruelty that were born later.

Two days later, Fang Zhili, the son of Fang Benhe, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, was discovered by several beggars in the back alley of Yunnifang. Bloody and bloody, the state of death is extremely horrific.
