Help! The innocent prince always tries to seduce me clumsily
Chapter 66 Returning to Beijing to See the Prince, Rumors Begin
Chu Shitong glanced back unconsciously and said, "It's a great harvest."
"wrong."
Chu Shifeng chuckled and tapped the tip of Chu Shitong's nose, his tone gentle as if he was talking to a child.
"Gold, silver and jewels are nothing to me. All I gained is the words you said."
"Which one?"
We have talked so much in the past few days that when we suddenly talk about this topic, Chu Shitong can’t remember anything.
Chu Shifeng laughed twice, picked up the wine glass and took a sip, and said, "Xiao Qi will know in the future."
Chu Shitong said speechlessly: "It keeps people on suspense."
……
After a long journey, we finally arrived in the capital on July 14th.
When they arrived at the gate of Prince Qi's Mansion, Chu Shitong got off the car only to find that Chu Shijing's carriage was still following behind.
Chu Shifeng lifted the curtain and said, "Xiao Qi, take the things Qiongzhou sent back to the mansion."
Seeing his generosity, Chu Shitong glanced at the eight full carriages behind him and said, "No, it's not for me. Since it's for my brother, you can keep it yourself."
To avoid any trouble in the future.
Master Chu got off the carriage and saw him off.
"See you later, Xiaoqi."
Chu Shitong asked, "Why didn't the imperial sister return to Kaiyuan Temple?"
Chu Shijing said: "Master Wuji asked me to deliver something to the palace, so I have to go to the palace again."
Chu Shitong said politely: "Then my brother and sister can go and do their work first. Xiaoqi will take his leave now."
Chu Shijing nodded and returned to the carriage.
Chu Shitong said goodbye to Chu Shifeng again, and watched the two leave before returning to the palace.
Tired from running back and forth and drinking all the time in recent days, Chu Shitong took a shower and went to bed as soon as he returned home.
……
semi-consciously.
I seemed to hear some noise coming from outside.
Chu Shitong opened his eyes and saw that it was still light outside. It was early morning when he came back, and now it was already afternoon.
Chu Shitong got up and put on his clothes, wanting to see what was going on outside. Just as he walked to the door, he heard Rushuang's voice behind him.
"Your Highness."
"Why are you back?"
Rushuang lowered her head and said, "Because the prince came to see your highness."
Chu Shitong listened quietly to the sounds outside the door.
Bishui pleaded, "Your Highness, please put down your sword first."
Ji Shu said helplessly: "Your Highness, rumors should not be taken seriously. Don't be impulsive. This matter cannot be true."
Si Jingli said angrily: "You can't do it? Then why are you stopping me?"
Bishui: "Your Highness is very tired after coming back. He went to sleep after taking a bath. Please put down the sword first, Bishui begs you."
Chu Shitong looked confused. What rumors?
Si Jingli became even angrier.
"What do you mean sleeping? Could it be that Prince Yu is in there so you don't dare to let me in?"
Chu Shitong's expression was simply indescribable.
She asked Rushuang.
"What gossip?"
Rushuang said, "After your highness left the capital, Si Xunhuan recovered a little. She started to spread the story about your highness and Prince Yu, saying that your highness and Prince Yu were gay. She sent many people to spread the story, and the whole capital was in an uproar. Your highness also heard about it, and angrily confronted Si Xunhuan, but Si Xunhuan exaggerated the matter, and the two had a big quarrel. Although your highness didn't believe it, he was still very angry. When he heard that you were back, he came to find you with a sword."
Chu Shitong: “…”
?
It was rare that she felt so absurd and dull.
She and Chu Shifeng?
Is it gay?
How come she herself doesn't know?
Just as he was thinking about it, Rushuang suddenly disappeared, and then the door was broken open.
The three people who were arguing and pulling each other outside the door stopped moving instantly when they saw Chu Shitong standing in front of the door.
Bishui immediately said, "Your Highness, the Crown Prince has misunderstood you! I want to stop him but I can't!"
Ji Shu also said, "Please forgive me, Your Highness. You said before that His Highness can come and go as he pleases, so no one in the palace dares to stop His Highness."
Chu Shitong came back to his senses and said, "I understand. You can go down now."
Bishui and Jishu retreated, closing the door behind them.
Chu Shitong and Si Jingli were the only two people left in the room. Si Jingli still held the sword in his hand, looking as aggressive as last time.
"Chu Shitong! Explain clearly to me today! What is your relationship with Prince Yu?"
He was so angry that he rushed in with a knife and ignored the rules.
But Chu Shitong just looked at him calmly.
After not seeing him for half a month, the young master seemed to have grown taller.
The words were spoken so harshly, but that handsome and enchanting face did not show any anger at all, but rather a sense of grievance.
The narrow and long peach blossom eyes were flushed, and the longing flashing in them was frozen.
The atmosphere in the room was quiet for a moment.
Si Jingli became even angrier when he didn't see Chu Shitong's answer.
"Why do you keep looking at me but don't say anything? Are you admitting it? You didn't take me to Qiongzhou just to be alone with Prince Yu, right?"
Chu Shitong spoke slowly, "I haven't seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for a long time. I miss you so much that I don't know how to speak."
Si Jingli's hand holding the sword froze, and his heart was suddenly moved.
"You... don't think that I will not pursue you just because you say something nice!"
"Your Highness wants to hear an explanation. The explanation is that Your Highness Prince Yu and I are just brothers, with the same father but different mothers. What is there to explain?"
The sword in Si Jingli's hand slowly fell to the ground.
The anger on his face had disappeared, but somehow his eyes turned red with grievance again.
"Then why did you take him and not me?"
"That's because there's no way to reject him outright right now."
Chu Shitong stepped forward and took the sword from him.
"Your Highness, please stop playing with these dangerous things in the future. If you fail to kill me but hurt Your Highness, I really don't know what to do."
This rumor was so absurd that Chu Shitong was too lazy to explain it.
Si Jingli is not stupid, he definitely didn't believe it.
He barely had time to hold the sword when Chu Shitong snatched it away. It was obvious that he was jealous that Chu Shitong didn't take him to Qiongzhou.
Chu Shitong put the sword aside and wanted to pull Si Jingli to sit down, but Si Jingli stood there stubbornly and refused to move.
"What's wrong, Your Highness?" Chu Shitong asked, "Did I not explain it clearly just now?"
Si Jing turned away without looking at her, his voice was unusually soft, as if he had suffered some great injustice.
"Then why do you always play with him? You only wrote a few letters to me. You haven't written to me again for such a long time since you left. You must not like me anymore..."
Chu Shitong said in a gentle voice: "How is that possible? I like His Royal Highness the most."
"Stop saying nice things here. If you really missed me, how could you write such a short letter? I finished reading it right after you left."
Si Jingli was being petty and tried to shake off Chu Shitong's hand, but Chu Shitong held it tightly and refused to let go.
Chu Shitong felt that he had died unjustly.
She expected to be away for half a month, so she wrote thirty letters.
Who would have thought that Si Jingli read all thirty letters at once.
"I was wrong. I wrote too little."
Chu Shitong could only go over with a smug look on his face to comfort her.
"Your Highness, please stop being angry, okay? Next time I will definitely write you a lot, or take you with me. Your Highness, please don't be angry."
She hugged Si Jingli, stood on tiptoe to kiss his face, and stayed close to him.
"Your Highness, please stop being angry, okay?"
Si Jingli wasn't very angry at first, but he instantly calmed down after being coaxed like this.
She felt that she was suspicious of Chu Shitong and seemed to distrust him. She felt guilty but was afraid of losing face if she did so. So she said in a tough voice, "Then you have to spend more time with me in the future, otherwise... otherwise I won't forgive you..."
Chu Shitong smiled and said, "Your Highness is tolerant and generous. Of course, I am happy to accompany Your Highness."
Si Jingli's strength was shattered by Chu Shitong's blow. He no longer cared about his face and hugged Chu Shitong tightly with a red face, as if he had thrown away a broken jar.
"Why did you walk so long..."
There was a hint of resentment in the voice, like a dog abandoned by its owner, missing him and complaining about him.
"I miss you so much. I miss you so much when I don't see you for a day..."
Chu Shitong said in a rare gentle voice: "I miss His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, too."
"You don't even write to me..."
"Writing a letter only makes me eager to come back. After all, writing is like seeing the person. When I picked up the pen to write, I already wanted to come to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
When Si Jingli heard this, the depression in his heart turned into an indescribable joy, but he didn't dare to show it too obviously.
"Don't think I'll forgive you just because you said that..."
"Then what can I say so that Your Highness can forgive me?"
Instead, Si Jingli remained somewhat silent and shy.
Chu Shitong had already understood what he meant.
Although Si Jingli looks like a decent person, he is actually very clingy. On days when he is not mentioned, he sticks to Chu Shitong all the time.
Every time I come, I want kisses, hugs and sweet words for a long time.
In order to prevent people from talking about his frequent visits to Prince Qi's Mansion, Chu Shitong even modified a side door so that Si Jingli could come here anytime and anywhere without being discovered.
Chu Shitong put his arms around Si Jingli's neck, pressed his head and kissed him.
After not seeing each other for more than ten days, it seems that the feelings have not been diluted by the distance, but have become more intense and warm.
At this moment, Si Jingli no longer pretended to be tough for the sake of so-called face. He hugged Chu Shitong and kissed him fiercely.
The longing that had accumulated over the past few days burst out in an instant. His attack was not as soft and shy as before, but an intense possession that could not be restrained.
Migratory birds fly across the sky, as if they want to travel all over the sky.
It was not until Chu Shitong once again noticed something wrong with Si Jingli's body that Si Jingli stopped his actions.
At the moment of separation, Si Jingli's beautiful eyes were full of lust.
There was still a hint of ambiguity on his lips.
Chu Shitong asked, "Does His Royal Highness need a little help?"
If it were in the past, Si Jingli would definitely refuse.
But now the rumors make him feel anxious and worried. Even though he knows it is impossible, he still feels a strong sense of crisis.
He didn't dare look at Chu Shitong, fearing that his blushing face would embarrass him.
Si Jingli spoke in a very light voice, even with a risk-taking attitude, "If...if you insist on helping me...it's not impossible for me to accept it..."
Chu Shitong couldn't help teasing him as he looked at his stubborn attitude towards face.
"If His Royal Highness doesn't need it, forget it. I'm overthinking it. His Royal Highness doesn't have that idea."
Si Jingli felt his face getting even hotter.
He felt a little regretful for his stubbornness just now, and spoke like a rogue.
"That's not what I meant..."
"What does His Royal Highness mean?" Chu Shitong touched it with his fingertips with evil intentions.
"Does His Royal Highness want to?"
Si Jingli was so embarrassed that he could not stand, and his body was shaking slightly from the light touch.
He closed his eyes tightly, his voice choked with pleading.
"Chu Shitong... stop teasing me..."
Chu Shitong just wouldn't let him succeed so easily.
"If your highness doesn't want to, forget it."
Just as he was about to reach out and push Si Jingli away, Si Jingli pounced on him and hugged him. In that instant, all his dignity was gone.
"think……"
Chu Shitong withdrew his hand with satisfaction and stopped teasing him.
"Okay, I'll listen to His Royal Highness."
…………
Night falls slowly.
Si Jingli left Prince Qi's Mansion only after having dinner.
Chu Shitong politely declined a certain invitation from a certain person to help each other because she really did not have the conditions.
Chu Shitong came out of a cold shower, her snow-white undergarment making her skin look so rosy and smooth that it looked as if it could be blown away.
She went to the study to look through the letters that had recently been sent to Prince Qi's Mansion and the restaurant, and found a letter from her second brother Song Nian.
It is said that the jade pendant was taken away by a man who claimed to be Chu Shitong's elder brother, and asked Chu Shitong to visit Jingzhou next month.
Chu Shitong always felt something was strange.
Song Nian was a very smart man, and his trust could not be gained with just a few words. The fact that Chu Shixuan had taken the jade pendant from him was made to sound light by the two of them. Logically speaking, the token of brotherhood was very valuable and should not be taken away so easily.
But on second thought, Chu Shixuan did bring the same full moon jade as himself, so it was normal for him to take it away.
Chu Shitong remembered that before long, the deficit in the national treasury became more and more serious, and Chu Shiyu would be furious about the taxation in Jingzhou and would send people to Jingzhou to investigate.
The person who went there in the previous life was Chu Shifeng. It took Chu Shifeng two months to find evidence of corruption, and in one fell swoop he captured an extremely close network of corrupt officials and nearly 1.8 million taels of silver!
This is no small number.
Ordinary people may never have seen a thousand taels in their entire lives, but this is 1.8 million taels.
Converted into coins, it is 180 million (equivalent to 100 million) coins.
This is the amount that Chu Shifeng reported alone, not to mention how much he pocketed. It must be at least one million.
Chu Shitong would not miss this opportunity. He planned to investigate the case, make some money, and take Si Jingli and Song Nian out to play for a few days, killing two birds with one stone.
In addition to the letter from my second brother, my eldest brother Zhan Qing also wrote to me.
He said a lot of things, all of which were about asking how Chu Shitong was doing.
Finally, I said something serious. I would probably go to Beijing at the end of the month, and then I would go back to Michelin to find Chu Shitong.
Chu Shitong only knew that Zhan Qing's family was in the capital, but he had no idea where they lived.
This year's trip to Qingliang Villa has been postponed again and again. The time set is after Chu Shitong returns in the next two days. I don't know whether I will be able to wait for Chu Shitong to return.
It's probably too late.
Chu Shitong could only instruct his men at Michelin to be ready for Zhan Qing to arrive at any time so that he could be notified as soon as possible while thinking of a countermeasure.
……
In a blink of an eye, it was time to go to court the next day.
