Today's weather is not hot, but Ji Yu felt a bit stuffy after rushing all the way.

As soon as the spring breeze passed, the half-yellow and not green leaves on the tree fell with the wind, and fell scatteredly before Ji Yu's eyes. He raised his hand and brushed the fallen leaves into his palm, curled them up, and the sweltering heat dissipated a bit.

Taking a breath, he raised his hand to block the gate of Zhaohui Palace, looked at Ling Chaogang's back as he stepped into the gate, and called out: "Third Highness."

After Ling Chao paused for a moment, he said, "If Shizi has anything to say, come in and say it. The strong wind outside is not good for Shizi's health."

At this time, Ling Chao was still thinking about himself, Ji Yu only felt that his breathing was stagnant, and his heart felt a little painful.

This is the first time in his life that he feels that he should not be calculating, and it is also the first time that he feels that he is cruel. What Ling Yu said is correct, he did push Ling Chao out to cover his name, even though he was not planning for the Fifth Highness , It's not that he didn't think about Ling Chao at all.

But when the facts were exposed, he couldn't say anything to quibble, he kept telling himself that he was born in the royal family, even if he didn't want to fight, there was no way out, so he dragged Ling Chao into the water to save him and help him.

He even wanted to tell Ling Chao that none of this was planned for Ling Jun, but he just wanted to support each other and rely on each other, if one day...

But all of this, he still didn't say it, and he didn't come in time to say it...

When he entered, Ling Chao was already sitting on the low couch waiting for him, his expression was so indifferent that no emotion could be seen, after Yun An poured tea, he saw Ji Yu coming in and retreated voluntarily.

Ji Yu stepped forward, but when he got close, he couldn't say anything.

"Have a cup of hot tea and warm yourself up," Ling Chao said first, looking down at the teacup in front of him.

Ji Yu stabilized his mind, held the teacup in his hand, took a sip of the tea, cleared his throat and said, "It was my fault for today's matter, I didn't explain clearly to the Third Highness, what the Second Highness said. …”

"His words are true, but I can't tell the good from the bad."

Ling Chao interrupted Ji Yu's words, but his brows relaxed a little, he turned his head to look at Ji Yu, and asked, "If there is no matter about the second brother today, will the son be honest with me in the future?"

"It's natural!"

Ji Yu looked at him for a while, afraid that he wouldn't believe it, and said tightly: "Although you don't notice it right now, you will eventually understand after a while. Although I lied to you, I will definitely not to kill you."

Ling Chao was silent for a while, and murmured: "When I was young, my concubine mother was very favored but passed away early. Before she left, my concubine told me to be careful. At that time, I was young and couldn't understand why my concubine said this. I am the prince, how can it not be good to have the love of the emperor in this palace?"

"But it is precisely because I am the prince that I realize the dangers in the palace. The mother and concubine are away, and the emperor gradually seems to have forgotten me. A prince who is not valued is not as good as a favored slave."

Ling Chao smiled softly, his tone as if he was talking about other personnel matters.

He took a sip of tea from the cup and recalled: "There are always wild cats running around in this palace, and I don't know which empress came out of the palace. At that time, no prince liked to play with me, so I spent all day with those cats." The cats mixed together and fed them with their own meals, until one day, the cat ate my meal and died at my feet with a bloody nose and mouth..."

Ling Chao's expression did not change, but his body trembled almost imperceptibly.

Ji Yu clenched his fists and called out: "Your Highness..."

"It's nothing..." Ling Chao said with a smile: "Your Majesty treats me very well, I know it well, if you think about it from another angle, it might as well help me take this step."

The more Ling Chao was like this, the more Ji Yu didn't know what to say.

Ling Chao didn't care, he sniffed and continued, "Because the prince treats me very well, I am also willing to trust the prince."

Ji Yu's heart trembled slightly, and a somewhat determined look gradually appeared in his eyes.

He cleared his throat and said seriously: "Your Highness trust me, I will protect His Highness!"

Ling Chao looked at him without saying a word.

When the two were silent, Yun An came in from the outside and saluted politely, and replied: "Your Highness, Concubine Shu sent someone to inform His Highness and Shizi that the matter of the meal has come to an end, and it is the responsibility of the dining room. Therefore, Concubine Shu would like to ask His Highness and Shizi how they want to deal with this person?"

The owner of this dining room is the distant relative of Concubine De, and he treated Ling Chao so harshly to curry favor with Concubine De and the Second Highness. Now Concubine Shu sent someone to ask them how to deal with them. Outsiders feel that she takes it seriously enough.

Another meaning is to let them bear the name of offending people.

Neither of them spoke. Ji Yu didn't know what Ling Chao did, but Ji Yu felt that even if Ling Yu and Concubine De were punished lightly, they must have offended them. It's hard to say anything.

"Stand dead."

Ji Yu said lightly: No matter how small the prince's matter is, it is a big matter, and these servants cannot be allowed to deviate, so you can just go back to Concubine Shu. "

Yun An's eyes flickered, and he looked up at Ling Chao, who nodded slightly at him, and Yun An then bowed and retreated.

At night, the West Palace.

Hearing Fu Hai's words, Ji Yu understood what Ling Yu meant when he came to the daytime.

After careful calculation, it turns out that there was no one else who had conflicts with Qian Yue in the past few days except himself.

Ji Yu is not a fool, so naturally he would not be charged with crimes that do not belong to him. When he thought of Qian Yue, he wondered: "Is it really disabled?"

Mentioning Qian Yue Fuhai gave a "tsk" and sighed: "Your Majesty doesn't know something. The person sent by the servant to inquire back said that Young Master Qian was robbed by someone as soon as he came out of the Zuihualou. When they find someone At that time, Young Master Qian was already unconscious, and there was no other injury, only the patellas of both legs were taken away, and I am afraid that he will not be able to walk again for the rest of his life."

It really doesn't leave any leeway, such a neat attack without taking human life is really like seeking revenge, but this kind of method is too harsh.

Ji Yu lowered his eyes and didn't know what he was thinking. After a long while, he laughed: "Qian Yue has offended many people. Right now, Ling Yu and the Qian family are stopped by the crown prince. They're making a fuss."

"What does the prince mean?"

Ji Yu stood up, rubbed his eyes, and walked into the inner room: "Enemies are extremely jealous when they meet each other. Whoever has an affair with the Qian family can't take advantage of this moment to counterattack, and when?"

Fu Hai was taken aback for a moment, then he understood, and laughed: "Yes, there are so many people who have had feuds with the Qian family, so naturally it has nothing to do with us, the son can just sleep in peace."

Ling Chao stood in front of the window, watching the candles in the West Hall go out before looking away.

"Your Highness, is this really the case?"

Yun An stood with his hands down, standing behind Ling Chao, and asked softly.

Uncharacteristically, Ling Chao didn't show any repulsion towards Yun An, and said indifferently, "We have to take this step sooner or later, what difference does it make if we take an early step or a late step."
