Sansheng

Ever since Lin Lin was taught a lesson yesterday, Chu Ao felt extremely at ease. He rushed from the General's Mansion to the Crown Prince's East Palace early, humming a little song all the way, and before the palace staff could pass it on, he couldn't wait to get in.

"Guo'er!" shouted excitedly to the people inside.

When Lin Zhong heard his voice, he only raised his head in response, looking very depressed.

"What's the matter, Guo'er, you're not happy to see me, who made my Guo'er unhappy? I'll teach him a lesson!" Chu Ao pinched Lin Zhong's small pointed chin, and was about to kiss him.

"Oh, don't make trouble, I'm not in the mood right now." Lin Zhong knocked his hand off lightly, only frowned and turned his face away.

"Ah! Guo'er! You don't like me anymore!" Chu Ao covered his heart with one hand, and pointed at him tremblingly with the other, making an exaggerated sad appearance.

With a "poof", Lin Zhong couldn't help laughing.

"Oh, that's right. My smile is the prettiest. Don't frown all the time. It hurts me to see it." Seeing Lin Zhong's smile, Chu Ao hurried up to admire Lin Zhong's smile. I really don't think it's too much after watching it a hundred times. God knows, for his smile and tears, he, Chu Ao, sacrificed a few lives in private.

"You just came from outside the palace, maybe you haven't heard the news yet." Seeing Chu Ao's ignorant look, Lin Zhong frowned again, and said slowly.

"What's the news?" Chu Ao hugged Lin Zhong from behind, rubbing against his neck like a puppy, begging to be good, not paying attention to Lin Zhong's words.

"Brother is dead."

Chu Ao froze immediately.

"According to the coroner who performed the autopsy, he died last night. His whole body was bloody and bloody, and no part was intact. He seemed to have been injured by the sharp teeth and claws of wild animals. His arms were also broken. He died with his eyes wide open. , the expression on the whole face is terrified, the mouth... the mouth... is still full..."

"what?"

"Dog food."

Chu Ao groaned inwardly, thinking that the mantis was making up for the cicada, and the oriole was behind. He might not be a mantis, but a cicada.

"Hey...Although my elder brother and I are half-brothers, and we had a holiday before, but now that he's gone, I don't feel good. Father, I don't know what it's like to be sad..." Lin Zhong didn't notice Chu Ao's face was gloomy, and he only said to himself.

"Chu Ao, Chu Ao!" Lin Zhong looked at Chu Ao who was stunned, and pushed him, "Are you listening?"

"Oh, oh, I'm listening, I'm listening." Chu Ao quickly recovered.

"You said, the majestic prince would be assassinated at night, not to mention my eldest brother is also good at martial arts, how capable this man must be, this heavily guarded palace is not safe." Lin Zhong's eyes were a little bit Worried, thinking of the described Lin Lin being bitten to bloody flesh, he couldn't help his scalp numb, curled up his hands and grabbed Chu Ao's sleeves.

"Don't be afraid, Guoer, you are absolutely safe, if anyone wants to harm you, I will protect you!" Seeing his frightened look, Chu Ao immediately patted his chest.

"En!" Lin Zhong cooperated with him this time and nodded vigorously.

He was about to stand up and walk around, but Chu Ao stretched out his feet, and was about to fall to the ground, and was hugged by him.

"Guo'er! I'll protect you!" Chu Ao had sword eyebrows and staring eyes, with a righteous face, he looked like a hero!

"Hmm..." Lin Zhong was sweating profusely.

After a long time, Chu Ao let him go, Lin Zhong panted slightly, "Is it protective enough to kiss?"

When the two were in love, they suddenly heard the sound of iron armor and swords touching from the outer corridor, as well as the sound of neat marching footsteps. Lin Zhong looked out the window, and it turned out to be a group of Imperial Forest Army.

"The humble Qin Yuan kowtowed to His Highness the Crown Prince, His Highness is a thousand years old!" The leading commander knelt down and saluted.

"Get up, General Qin, what are you doing here with your soldiers?" Lin Zhong was puzzled.

"His Royal Highness, the eldest prince Lin Lin passed away last night, and the emperor is very sad. I ordered you to search the palace carefully to see if there is anyone suspicious."

"How do you search? Do you have any clues?" Lin Zhong also wanted to know who the perpetrator was.

"His Highness the First Prince hid a bloody dagger in his sleeve before he died. There were blood stains on it, which should be left when he fought with the assassin."

"Just a short dagger stained with blood, what can it mean?" Chu Ao asked as he came up from behind.

"General Chu didn't know that the short dagger was one of the gifts from the defeat of Northern Huns. The willow-leaf blade and plum blossom scabbard was never used in Northern Li. The wound caused by that sharp weapon was very different from other swords. , I can recognize it myself."

"So, what are your plans?" Lin Zhong's face was sullen. If he came to the East Palace like this, could it be that he suspected me of killing the emperor?

"Forgive me for my lowly position and rudeness. The emperor has an order. The whole palace, from the prince to the palace servants, will all be inspected without exception. If there is any disobedience, it will be dealt with against the order!" Qin Yuan said. The name is monolithic, and there is no intention of giving in at all.

"You..." Lin Zhong was about to get angry, but then he thought about it again, his father must be heartbroken now, it is inevitable that some orders are unreasonable, but he can't resist the order and make him angry again, so he gave up.

"His Royal Highness, please follow me to the back of the screen. I only want to check whether there is any trauma on my body." Qin Yuan stretched out his hand to signal, and Lin Zhong sighed and followed.

After a while, Lin Zhong tidied up his clothes and came out from behind, "How about it, General Qin, am I suspicious?"

"Back to His Royal Highness, you can be excluded." After finishing speaking, he turned his eyes to Chu Ao, "General Chu, it's your turn."

"I live in the general's mansion outside the palace, do I need to check?" Chu Ao was startled.

"The emperor has ordered that the ministers and their relatives who often enter the palace should also be inspected routinely."

Chu Ao's face was troubled, he didn't move half an inch, he was thinking about how to deal with the difficult General Qin in front of him.

Seeing him not moving, Qin Yuan leaned forward, "What, General Chu, didn't you hear?"

Lin Zhong was also very puzzled, tilting his head and looking at him, "Chu Ao?"

Chu Ao frowned and looked at him with a hint of pleading for help in his eyes. Lin Zhong noticed that he quietly touched his left arm with his right hand.

Suddenly there was an uproar in my heart.

Is it possible...

Chu Ao, you are too...

No matter how disrespectful Lin Lin is to me, just bickering in the garden, you will kill him?You are too cruel!

But the most urgent thing right now is not to catch him and ask him what happened, but how to help him tide over the crisis is imminent.

General Qin Yuan waved his hand, and several soldiers stepped forward to capture Chu Ao.

"Bold! The prince's people, you dare to move!" In desperation, Lin Zhong had only one idea in his mind.

"General Qin, do you know why he doesn't let you see yourself?"

"I don't know the humble job."

"Because he has injuries." Lin Zhong walked over, put his arms around Chu Ao's waist, and only made intimate and ambiguous movements under the surprised eyes of everyone.

"However, it's the bite mark on his body that I love last night. Do you want to see it too? He didn't let you see it just now because he was afraid of embarrassment. But even if he wants to, I won't agree to it. My people, what? I can let men other than me see my body."

"This..." Qin Yuan opened his mouth wide in shock, unable to speak for a long time.

"Master Chu was with me last night, how could he go out and kill people?"

"But... what if when you fall asleep..." Although Qin Yuan's face was already red, he still asked in a low voice.

Before he finished speaking, Lin Zhong interrupted, "Impossible, we were awake all night last night." After finishing speaking, he stared into Qin Yuan's eyes and smiled slightly: "I said so, You still don't understand?"

"Humble... I understand..." After finishing speaking, he rushed out of the door with his head down and his soldiers.

This scene seemed to be similar. About a year ago, when Nanhua was helping Lin Zhong out of the palace, Chu Ao held Lin Zhong in his arms with a piece of jade deed from the prince, and got past Nanhua's palace gate guards. Now However, Lin Zhong used what he learned from the past and used it today, and he did it in the same way, and it still worked.

However, this silly prince only cared about the present and didn't think about the future at all.

As soon as he left the East Palace, Qin Yuan hurriedly went to face Sheng Fuming.

Leaning down to Lin Yihuan's ear, he repeated Lin Zhong's words that made people blush just now.

As a result, Longyan was naturally furious, but he couldn't do it openly. After all, it was related to the face of the royal family, so Lin Zhong could only be quietly passed on.

Although he tried his best to suppress his anger, due to differences of opinion, more and more intense quarrels came from the imperial study room, accompanied by Lin Yihuan's more and more anxious coughing from time to time.

"Guo'er, my father never expected that you would have a habit of cutting off your sleeves! Last time I said I would marry you, but you didn't agree, it must be because of him?"

"Father, Guo'er really likes Chu Ao."

"Shut up! From today on, you are not allowed to see him again!"

"Father, you are killing my son!"

"If you dare to resist the order again, don't blame your father for taking his life!"

"Father!"

"If you don't shut up, you don't want the crown prince anymore!"

There was no reply from Lin Zhong again in the room.

Chu Ao, who was still waiting in the East Palace after returning to the East Palace from the Imperial Study, saw Lin Zhong approaching from a distance, and hurriedly greeted him.

"Guo'er, what's the matter, what did His Majesty say?"

Seeing Chu Ao's expression, he felt even more sad, and wanted to go forward and let that person hug him, but there were people watching from left and right, so Lin Zhong could only grit his teeth cruelly:

"Chu Ao, let's go, I don't want to see you again." After finishing speaking, he passed by and walked into the hall.

Then, the door was closed.

Chu Ao froze in place, as if there was a cracking sound in his chest.

Guoer, you must have a hard time, right?I guess so, you love me, how could you be reluctant to see me.Saying you can't see me must not be what you mean, right?Just now, your heart hurts too, right?

But, I don't know, will your heart be as painful as mine?

A mouthful of blood spurted out from his mouth.
