Help! The innocent prince always tries to seduce me clumsily

Chu Shitong smiled awkwardly, not knowing what to say. She felt that everyone present was looking at her with a look that seemed to mean "you know what I mean".

"Master Zhou Tong is too polite. My royal brother was just speaking casually. I cannot afford such a grand ceremony."

She was afraid that others would say too much about this matter, so she quickly raised her glass and said, "No more talking, let's drink."

"Good! Your Highness Prince Qi is straightforward!"

After a few drinks, Chu Shitong felt a little dizzy.

It wasn't the feeling of being drunk, but a dizzy feeling. Looking at the grimace-like smiles of the people at the table, she was shocked.

——There’s something in the wine.

The feeling of dizziness became more and more intense, and the turmoil in Chu Shitong's heart did not stop even when he fell in front of the table.

This group of people actually dared to attack her openly, are they fucking crazy?

Or are the people of Jiangzhou as crazy as Chu Shifeng?

Chu Shitong dared to come because she was sure that these people would not dare to do anything on the surface. After all, she was sent by Chu Shiyu himself. No matter what happened in Jiangzhou, Chu Shiyu would not let them go.

But she really didn't expect that this group of people would be so bold as to collude with Jiangzhou City officials to set up a blatant Hongmen Banquet.

But she could only think of this, because she couldn't think of anything else.

Inside the house, the noisy voices stopped at this moment.

Everyone looked towards Chu Shitong with sharp eyes.

Most of them are around 40 or 50 years old, old, ugly and fat, obviously because they eat too much oil and water.

Staring at them like will-o'-the-wisp lights, each one striking makes people's hearts tremble.

Zhou Tong put down his wine glass and chuckled, "I didn't expect that Prince Qi and His Royal Highness Prince Yu said exactly the same thing. They had no ulterior motives and clearly came to Jiangzhou to find trouble. They even drank the wine we gave them without hesitation."

Someone asked, "Should we go and inform His Royal Highness Prince Yu?"

"Of course." Zhou Tong stood up and said, "Don't stay here, disperse, I'll go find His Highness."

Everyone stood up, some completed their tasks and turned to leave, while some stared at Chu Shitong for several times and stayed where they were, reluctant to leave.

"His Royal Highness Prince Qi is really good-looking. With this look and this figure... no wonder His Royal Highness likes him so much."

Zhou Tong glanced at him coldly, "Do you have the guts to touch what His Highness likes?"

The man immediately laughed and said, "No, no, no."

"If you don't have the guts, get out of here right away. If you displease His Highness, you will lose more than ten heads."

Zhou Tong drove away all the people in the palace, ordered people to guard the palace gate, and then got on a carriage and left the mansion.

The carriage stopped again in the backyard of the prefectural government's residence.

The hall is filled with gold, white jade steps, emerald glazed screens and painted fans, carpets woven from tiger and bear skins, and the snow-white floor reflects a seven-color luster, all of which are solidified by polishing with pearl powder bit by bit.

All you see is luxury.

Chu Shifeng was lying in a rocking chair, his handsome face with a relaxed brow, his body relaxed and enjoying himself. He held a slender pipe in his hand, and the smell of tobacco filled the air.

A slender figure is seen behind the screen, and her song, like that of an oriole, echoes in the air.

"Your Highness." The servant knelt at the door and said, "Lord Zhou Tong requests to see you."

Chu Shifeng said without even raising his eyelids: "Let him go."

The servant left in a hurry and came back after a moment.

"Your Highness..."

Chu Shifeng opened his eyes impatiently. In Jiangzhou, he seemed to be able to conceal his bad and violent temper, and his capricious cruelty without any hesitation.

"You want to die?"

The servant knelt down and trembled and said: "Master Zhou Tong said there is a happy event... He must see you..."

"Humph, what good news can that old man have?"

Chu Shifeng suddenly remembered that this time seemed to be when Zhou Tong brought many Jiangzhou officials to invite Chu Shitong to dinner.

Finished eating so quickly?

As if by some strange coincidence, Chu Shifeng said, "Let him in."

"Yes."

Zhou Tong came to the front of the house, but like the servants, he could not step into Chu Shifeng's room at all. He could only kneel at the door and bow his head.

"Your humble servant pays respect to His Royal Highness Prince Yu."

Chu Shifeng glanced at him lazily, with a look of condescension in his upturned phoenix eyes.

"You said there was some happy event? What happy event?"

When this was mentioned, Zhou Tong immediately put on a flattering smile.

"Your Highness Prince Yu, I want to give you a great gift. You will definitely like it!"

Seeing his arrogant look and the gleam in his eyes, Chu Shifeng finally laughed. All officials in Jiangzhou were like this. They did not recognize Chu Shiyu as the emperor, but the prefect of Jiangzhou and Prince Yu, and tried various ways to please them.

Chu Shifeng was in a good mood, so his attitude towards him naturally became better, "Come in and talk."

"Yes."

Zhou Tong stood up and walked into the house, as if these few steps into the house were no longer a road, but a path for him to get promoted and make money.

Chu Shifeng was a man with little patience, so Zhou Tong did not dare to keep him in suspense. He approached Chu Shifeng mysteriously as soon as he entered the room and said, "I heard that Your Highness has been fond of His Highness Prince Qi for a long time?"

"Yeah." Chu Shifeng responded and lay lazily in the rocking chair, which was considered an admission.

Zhou Tong immediately said excitedly: "His Royal Highness Prince Qi is already in my residence. If His Royal Highness is interested, you can go there at any time."

Hearing this, Chu Shifeng's face turned slightly colder, and his squinting eyes slowly opened. He glanced at Zhou Tong casually, with a hint of danger in his eyes.

"What do you mean?"

The smile on Zhou Tong's face froze, and he began to explain carefully: "I know that Your Highness likes Prince Qi, so I specially invited Prince Qi to your house for a drink. I put a drug in Prince Qi's wine, and now Prince Qi has fallen asleep at the table."

He looked very excited when he said this, as if he was showing off his hard work.

However, Chu Shifeng's face became darker and darker, and his breathing became more and more rapid.

Zhou Tongdao said: "Don't worry, Your Highness. The drug is a full dose. No matter what Your Highness does, I guarantee that Prince Qi will not wake up. Besides, even if he wakes up, he is already Your Highness's man. At that time, Your Highness will have the final say..."

He did not realize that although Chu Shifeng had remained silent, his emotions were already on the verge of rage.

Chu Shifeng was so angry that he laughed instead of being angry, and asked word by word: "You made Qi Wang faint?"

Zhou Tong immediately followed suit and nodded rapidly.

"Yes, yes, it's right here in my house!"

Chu Shifeng stood up from the rocking chair and kicked Zhou Tong hard, sending him flying and smashing the glass screen next to him.

Zhou Tong fell down with blood all over his face. The secret guard on the roof came into the house and picked Zhou Tong up from the ground.

Chu Shifeng was about to explode with rage. All the viciousness on that handsome face was replaced by anger. He simply reached the point where he could no longer tolerate it. He stepped forward and kicked Zhou Tong hard in the abdomen several times, almost making him vomit blood.

Chu Shifeng grabbed his hair and angrily asked, "Who gave you the courage to attack King Qi?"

Zhou Tong's face was covered in blood. He realized that he had caused a big disaster and quickly begged for mercy: "Your Highness, please calm down. I misunderstood you. I thought your Highness came to Jiangzhou this time because..."

He wanted to say that he thought Chu Shifeng came to Jiangzhou just to have something happen with Chu Shitong in Jiangzhou. Anyway, the mountains were high and the roads were long, and Chu Shitong was powerless to resist.

From the moment Chu Shitong set foot on the land of Jiangzhou, he had already become a fish on the chopping board.

Chu Shifeng exerted more and more force in his hands. Blue veins were faintly visible on the back of his hands, and the hair that was grabbed was almost detached from the scalp with blood.

Zhou Tong bared his teeth and raised his lips in pain but dared not make a sound.

Chu Shifeng was already angry to a certain extent. Last time, his subordinates made the decision privately, and Chu Shitong almost lost his life because of it. Although Chu Shitong did not care about this matter afterwards, Chu Shifeng was still very angry.

Now that Chu Shitong has arrived in Jiangzhou, not only is he forced to drink alcohol every day, but he is also drugged and knocked unconscious by his fellow officials. If this matter gets out, or if Chu Shitong is bullied by some blind man, wouldn't the relationship between the two of them, which has lasted for so many years, be completely severed?

"Why do you think I didn't do anything to her?" Chu Shifeng lowered his voice, like a demon from hell with a rage in his heart, "If I only wanted her body, why would it be your turn to do it? I want her to be willing! What do you know about a loser like you who only knows how to drink and be lustful?!"

Zhou Tong finally understood why Chu Shifeng had never taken action against Chu Shitong. For the position that Chu Shitong had climbed to after more than ten years of hard work, he frantically begged for mercy: "I know my crime! Your Highness, please forgive me!"

"Forgive me? I will kill you now! Do you think your position as a state leader is important?"

Chu Shifeng no longer dared to imagine how to deal with this matter. No matter how he handled it, Chu Shitong would realize that there was a problem after he woke up.

If anything is not handled properly, the dependence and trust that he has worked so hard to build up over the years will be completely shattered.

Zhou Tong's tearful plea made him extremely irritated. He waved his hand and asked the secret guards to take him away. "Kill him for me! You are asking for your own death! Kill his whole family!"

"Your Highness Prince Yu, please spare my life..."

......

Chu Shitong felt a sharp pain in her neck. She opened her eyes dazedly and saw Ying kneeling beside her with a few silver needles in his hand.

She dared to come out and drink without worry because she naturally brought enough people with her. Even if she fainted, there were many secret guards guarding her in secret.

"what happened?"

Chu Shitong looked at the empty side hall, the food that had already gone cold, and touched his neck.

There were several silver needles inserted into the neck.

"Your Highness, don't move. You have enough drugs in your body. You can only stay awake with the silver needle inserted in your body. If the silver needle is pulled out, you will pass out again."

Jianying said, "After His Highness fainted just now, Lord Zhoutong dismissed the others and got on the carriage alone to the backyard of the prefect's mansion. I heard from the secret guards that His Highness Prince Yu was among them."

Chu Shitong took a deep breath. What was Chu Shifeng going to do next?

Could it be that he regretted his decision and was afraid that he would incite rebellion in the middle of his investigation, so he decided to get rid of himself in Jiangzhou?

But if this is the case, he cannot escape the blame.

Or does he simply not trust me at all, so he deliberately lets others do something to me?

Originally, Chu Shitong had some conscience, because Chu Shifeng was so good to her. However, today's dinner made the little conscience that Chu Shitong had accumulated with great difficulty disappear.

"What do they want to do?"

Jianying said, "It's not clear at the moment, because there are too many secret guards near the palace where Prince Yu is. If you go there rashly, you will be discovered. But it is said that an incense stick ago, Prince Yu was furious and ordered the secret guards to drag Lord Zhou Tong out and chop him up."

Chu Shitong couldn't believe it and even raised his voice a pitch.

"He dares to chop off the state directly?"

What is this equivalent to? It is equivalent to the entire Jiangzhou. Chu Shifeng killed the governor of Jiangzhou, who was second only to his grandfather. It had no impact on the entire Jiangzhou.

At the very least, he must have done similar things many times before he dared to do this directly.

"Does the prefect of Jiangzhou know about this?"

"I don't know. It was said that it was Prince Yu who made the decision. He was dragged to the courtyard and chopped off on the spot."

"Jiangzhou is really a bunch of crazy people."

Chu Shitong couldn't help but curse, and was about to stand up while holding the table. Seeing Ying hurried over to help him.

But as soon as he stood up, Chu Shitong sat back down.

"No, I can't leave like this. I have to stay here and see what Prince Yu wants to do."

She was really curious as to why Chu Shifeng went to so much trouble to get Zhou Tong to invite her, and then turned around and killed Zhou Tong.

Could it be murder to silence the witness?

But is it too early? She is still in Zhou Tong's mansion and has not fallen into Chu Shifeng's hands.

After waiting for an unknown amount of time, when Chu Shitong was getting tired and was about to leave, he heard the sound of sword fighting outside. The intruders seemed to be very cruel, and the screams in the yard were horrific.

"See Shadow!"

Jianying immediately appeared, "Your Highness."

"But King Yu sent people to slaughter the clan?"

Chu Shitong guessed that perhaps Chu Shifeng wanted to use Zhou Tong to kill himself, and then kill Zhou Tong, and then put all the blame on the dead man.

But if you think this way, there's always something wrong and it won't work.

"Outside..." Jianying was silent for a moment, then said, "It's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Chu Shitong was stunned.

"Who?"

"His Royal Highness."

"Why is he here?"

"Rushuang was here just now. It seems that Rushuang went to the inn to look for His Highness. At that time, His Highness had already come to Zhoutong Mansion. Later, Rushuang came here to find me. I was trying to find a way to wake His Highness up at that time. These silver needles were sent by Rushuang."

It seems that it was Rushuang, the big mouth, who told Si Jingli about this.

Chu Shitong stood up and walked out the door. If this matter became too big of a fuss, it would be difficult to resolve. Not only would he not be able to know what Chu Shifeng was going to do, but he might also alert the enemy.

The moment the door opened, a cold light flashed in the air.

A human head fell to the ground, blood splattered everywhere, a few drops dyed Chu Shitong's clothes red, and a few drops fell on her face.

Chu Shitong looked at the figure in front of him, the familiar thin face under the gray hood, the long sword in his hand was stained with blood. The strange feeling after not seeing him for several days collided with the familiarity of his former name, and his body couldn't help but tremble slightly at this moment.

"His...His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
