Help! The innocent prince always tries to seduce me clumsily

The man in black gritted his teeth and got up from the ground. He took a deep breath and said, "This subordinate is also considering your Highness's plan..."

This sentence made Chu Shifeng, who was on the verge of a rage, laugh out loud, "So? You killed Chu Shixuan?"

The man in black lowered his head and dared not say a word.

"You keep saying that you did it for my plan, so did it succeed?" Chu Shifeng's anger flared up again, and he raised his voice several degrees higher when talking to the man in black, "You didn't kill Chu Shixuan! You even hurt King Qi on your own initiative! Do you know how King Qi will view me after you did this?!"

He couldn't restrain himself and kicked the man in black several times, each time without mercy, as if he was going to kill someone. With just a few kicks, the man in black collapsed to the ground, spitting out blood.

"Come here! Take them away! Punish me! I want to see if you losers have rebelled! You are useless except for eating and drinking from me! All the secret guards, come and accept your punishment!!"

Chu Shifeng sent nearly five hundred secret guards and death warriors to Jingzhou this time, mobilizing almost all the strength at his disposal.

But even so, Chu Shixuan was not injured at all.

Instead, Chu Shitong was almost killed because of his subordinates' private actions.

Chu Shiyu has already sent people to Jingzhou to investigate the matter. This time the plan was completely defeated and the result was a loss.

The man in black was dragged away for punishment, and the servants serving in the hall didn't even dare to breathe, for fear that the fire would burn them at the next moment.

Jiang Ronger, the only concubine in Prince Yu's Mansion, came all the way to the palace after hearing that Chu Shifeng was angry.

But before he even entered the hall, he was unable to speak because of the depressing atmosphere in the room.

She was already afraid of Chu Shifeng, and now that Chu Shifeng was angry, if she didn't show up, Chu Shifeng would definitely not forgive her when he remembered her someday. If she showed up, she would most likely be beaten and scolded.

Jiang Ronger hesitated at the entrance of the palace for a long time and didn't dare to go in.

Chu Shifeng also slowly calmed down.

The plan failed at this time. If Chu Shitong suspected that he had murderous intentions towards her because of this incident, and chose to stand on Chu Shixuan's side in the future, wouldn't the hard work of the past two years be in vain?

But his own people had indeed injured Chu Shitong seriously, and it seemed that this matter would not be settled so easily.

"Someone is coming."

He called over a servant and said in a cold voice, "Go to my mother's palace and pick up a maid named Huaying. Send her to the backyard and take good care of her. Don't make any mistakes. Do you understand?"

"The slave obeys."

At this point, Chu Shifeng could only quickly do what Chu Shitong had asked him to do, hoping that this could serve as an opportunity to restore the relationship between them.

Jiang Ronger listened at the door of the palace, but still did not dare to go in.

The maid hurried forward and whispered something in her ear. Only then did Jiang Ronger feel relieved and mustered up the courage to enter the hall.

"Your Highness." Jiang Ronger stepped forward and saluted, "I pay my respects to Your Highness."

When Chu Shifeng saw Jiang Ronger, he felt even more irritated.

"Get out, I have no interest in seeing you today."

Jiang Ronger did not leave quickly as she would have done in the past, as if she were avoiding a snake or scorpion. Instead, she stood there without moving.

Chu Shifeng raised his eyebrows impatiently and looked over.

"Jiang Rong'er, can't you hear what I'm saying? Or do you no longer want your ears?"

Jiang Ronger's heart was beating wildly. She tried hard to control her fear and said, "Your Highness, I know that you are in a bad mood, so I found someone for you who may make you feel better..."

Chu Shifeng's eyes were cold and slightly suspicious.

"What if you can't make me feel better? I'd rather cut off your tongue and ears. From now on, you can stay in the bronze tripod where I keep poisonous snakes. It will also help you not to hang around in front of me and annoy me for no reason."

Jiang Ronger was so frightened that her legs went limp and she knelt on the ground, speaking quickly.

"Your Highness, please spare my life! Please first take a look at the people I brought with me!"

Chu Shifeng didn't say anything, as if he was willing to give Jiang Ronger a chance.

Jiang Ronger immediately winked at her maid, and the maid went out and brought back someone.

Chu Shifeng looked in the direction of the voice and suddenly saw the man's appearance. He was panicked for a moment, then his eyes widened slightly, and he almost looked the man up and down.

"Jiang Ronger, what do you mean?"

Chu Shifeng's voice was calm and cold. When it reached her ears, it was as if a cold snake was slowly crawling on her neck, its scales moving and touching her skin. Jiang Ronger's hair stood up.

"I...I don't mean anything else, I just think...Your Highness might..."

Her voice became smaller and smaller, and when she got to the end, she could no longer speak.

Chu Shifeng stared at the young man who came in with the maid, and a smile of ambiguous meaning suddenly appeared on his originally cold face.

"It seems that it is not unreasonable that you have lived longer than Si Xunhuan."

Hearing Chu Shifeng say this, Jiang Ronger finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then I will not bother Your Highness."

"Ah."

Jiang Ronger was helped up by the maid and walked out of the hall.

Chu Shifeng lay lazily on the couch, his chin slightly raised, and spoke to the young man.

"Why don't you come forward? Are you afraid that I will eat you?"

The young man walked forward with his head lowered, knelt on the ground and saluted without saying a word.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness Prince Yu."

His voice was a little trembling, as if he was forcing himself to speak, but the tone was very pleasant, a clear and bright young voice, clean and pure.

"Get up."

Chu Shifeng said, "Come forward."

The boy stood up, took two steps forward and then stopped.

Chu Shifeng's tone was emotionless as he continued, "Go forward again."

The young man hesitated for a moment, then took a few steps forward and was almost in front of Chu Shifeng. The distance between them was less than one step.

Chu Shifeng picked up the pipe beside him, lifted his chin, and asked him to slowly raise his face.

He has a handsome face, eyes as pure and innocent as a deer, and slightly drooping eyes. He is born with an innocent and pitiful feeling, which makes people have a strong desire to protect him for no reason.

Her facial features are delicate and three-dimensional, and her lips are the kind of cherry lips, small and thin, a peony red color like rouge, which makes her skin look whiter and adds a bit of incongruous charm to her original purity.

Chu Shifeng's eyes swept across other parts and landed on those lips.

"The most similar thing about your face is just this mouth."

The young man suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Chu Shifeng, with innocence and even a little immature recklessness in his eyes, and said: "The concubine said...the most similar part is the eyes."

Chu Shifeng was stunned for a moment, then he couldn't help but laugh.

He had never seen anyone so bold as to look him in the eye and talk to him.

"How many times has that idiot Jiang Rong'er met Prince Qi?" Chu Shifeng said, "Prince Qi's eyes don't look anything like yours. Your face is only 60% or 70% similar at best."

Although the eyes of the young man in front of him were yellow-brown, they were far inferior to Chu Shitong's amber eyes.

The young man lowered his eyes slightly, with a hint of loss between his brows.

Chu Shifeng asked, "Do you know why Jiang Ronger asked you to come see me?"

The young man shook his head.

"The Concubine gave my mother thirty taels of silver and told her to bring me here to see you. If I am to your liking, I can eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks every day in the future."

Chu Shifeng seemed to be pleased by these words. The corners of his lips curled up slightly, and the slender pipe tapped lightly on his fair face, and his voice became low and somewhat ambiguous.

"Then do you think that you are now in line with the king's wishes?"

The young man lowered his head in frustration and said, "Probably... no, because I don't look like His Royal Highness Prince Qi."

“Although some places are not similar, there are still some places that are very similar.”

Chu Shifeng seemed to be giving a gift, saying: "Stay by my side, as long as you serve me well, not to mention the delicious food and spicy drinks, even if you want to walk sideways in the capital, I can let you do it."

The boy's originally sad expression immediately became happy, a smile appeared on his face, and his deer-like eyes showed a hint of light.

"Really? Thank you, Your Highness Prince Yu!"

----

September 10th.

The autumn wind always brings a chilly chill.

Chu Shitong woke up from a nightmare, still breathing rapidly with a layer of cold sweat on his forehead.

Bishui was so excited that she almost cried, "Your Highness! You finally woke up!"

Chu Shitong looked confused for a moment, and only after looking at his surroundings did he determine the scene before him.

Bishui immediately brought the tea over and helped Chu Shitong take a sip.

Chu Shitong felt a dull pain in his lower abdomen and asked, "How long have I been unconscious?"

Bishui looked at her with tears in her eyes, "You have been in a coma for ten days. His Highness is almost dying of worry, and I am also almost dying of worry."

"Where is His Royal Highness?"

Chu Shitong looked around the room but did not see Si Jingli.

"His Royal Highness was called out by Doctor Gu. He was out not long ago and should be back soon."

"Ah."

Chu Shitong lay back down and listened to Bishui talk about what had happened in the past few days.

Upon hearing that Gu Qiu Shui had used the Jade Dew and Qiong Heart Pill on him, Chu Shitong felt it was a pity, but it was not a loss at all to be able to save his life.

"Any news from the capital?"

"Four days ago, Brother Ji Shu sent a letter, His Majesty sent several letters, His Royal Highness Prince Han sent one, Master Fan... Marquis Anding also sent one, and there were also letters from some officials in the court."

"I haven't seen you for a few days. My cousin has been granted the title of Marquis." Chu Shitong calculated the date and realized that he had indeed missed the day when Chu Shifan was granted the title of Marquis. However, Ji Shu should have sent a gift to the princess's residence. "Go and bring it to me."

After Chu Shitong finished speaking, Bishui did not move.

Chu Shitong thought she didn't hear him, so he repeated, "Go get the letter."

Bishui curled her lips and whispered, "Doctor Gu said that you are not allowed to worry about these things after you wake up, and you should focus on healing first."

Chu Shitong said: "It's not a big deal, I just want to see what they wrote."

"But if you write back, it would be a sign of worry..."

"Who said I should reply?" Chu Shitong coaxed confidently, "I can't even get out of bed now, how can I reply? If I don't reply, I'll just take a look. How can I worry about it? Don't you think so?"

Bishui thought about it and it seemed to be true.

"Okay, Xiao Bishui, go get me the letter quickly. Otherwise, if I don't read it, I'll get angry and it will take me longer to recover."

Bishui then reluctantly said, "Well, Your Highness, don't get angry. I'll get it right away."

Bishui had just gone out when Si Jingli came in soon after.

Chu Shitong looked over when he heard the voice, and the moment the two looked at each other, it seemed as if the air froze at that moment, and their eyes were more shocked than the other.

"Chu Shitong?" Si Jingli rubbed his eyes in disbelief, "You're awake?"

Chu Shitong frowned unconsciously.

The days in coma seemed like just a good night's sleep, as if yesterday Si Jingli was still in the inn throwing a tantrum because Chu Shitong didn't take him to Chunfengdu Restaurant, and now it seemed like a long time since they met again.

He had lost weight, and he was no longer wearing any of the gorgeous accessories he was wearing, such as the jeweled belt, the jade crown, and the silk earrings. He looked as plain as if he had just come out of a temple, but it was clear that he had never been so plain even in the temples.

Those peach blossom eyes were slightly swollen, with a blush at the corners of the eyes showing how many times she had cried. The dark circles under her eyes had never appeared before, and she probably hadn't had a good rest for a long time.

Such a clean-minded man now had an unshaved stubble on his chin, looking pitiful and haggard. The torment of the past few days made him look as if he would break at the slightest touch.

When Chu Shitong saw his appearance and the light that finally appeared in his eyes, his heart ached.

"Your Highness..."

Si Jingli slowly approached, staring at Chu Shitong intently, and touched Chu Shitong's face with trembling hands, feeling her warm skin and her living aura. He was sure that Chu Shitong had really woken up. The grievances accumulated over so many days finally made him burst into tears.

"Chu Shitong! You made me worry to death!"

He yelled, and then burst into tears. The tears that had been held back for days finally found a way out and fell like beads from a broken string, and he couldn't stop them.

Chu Shitong held him in his arms, endured the pain from his wounds, and kept comforting him.

"I was wrong, Your Highness, please stop crying. I'm fine, right?"

"Are you okay?" Si Jingli cried, "You almost died, did you know that?"

Seeing Si Jingli worrying so much about him, Chu Shitong couldn't tell whether he was happy or guilty.

For whom had Si Jingli ever been so miserable? Even though he had raided Prince Rong's Mansion in his previous life, and Prince Rong's Mansion became a laughing stock in the entire capital overnight, the next day Si Jingli appeared in front of everyone as handsome as ever, and had never looked so decadent before.

What virtue and ability does she have, Chu Shitong?

"It was almost there, but I am alive now. How could I bear to die with His Royal Highness here?"

Si Jingli felt extremely aggrieved, and the emotion that he had been holding on to Chu Shitong for a long time collapsed at this moment.

"Do you know that when I saw you, your whole body was icy cold, and you were only breathing your last breath? I was so scared that I almost lost two and a half of my soul! It was not easy for you to survive, and now you still have the mind to joke here. If there is a next time, I will chase you and beat you up even if I have to go to hell!"
