Chapter 45 The Hidden Sheath

As soon as the door rang behind him, Chu Yu turned around, unfolded the cloak that Yuan Jing had untied before entering the door, and covered him, not even a trace of the cold wind blew him.Seeing this scene, Yan Bo waved to him, beckoning him to go in and talk.Before Chu Yu could respond, Yuan Jing simply replied, "Here we are." He tugged at the corner of Chu Yu's clothes, and said worriedly, "Be more polite to the Grand Tutor."

Chu Yu smiled and scratched his nose: "Who do you think I am?" After entering the door, he greeted him with respect and dignity.Yan Bo said: "Thank you, my son, for bringing His Highness here. When we parted, I was able to see him once. Finally, I feel a little regretful."

Chu Yu said lightly: "The prince also means this. Since he has a wish, I will help him achieve it. You don't need to thank me."

Yan Bo said: "Very good." He got up and flipped through a pile of books for a while, and found a thin page, the paper was slightly wrinkled, obviously it had been a few years ago: "This is the war strategy handed in by the prince a few years ago, As soon as I saw it, I knew that this was the pen written by the prince on his behalf. Many years ago, General Shenwu brought you to Beijing, and the emperor held a banquet at Baojin Pond. During the meeting, he asked about the resettlement of the newly recovered northern tribes. The general asked you to answer for him. Said, "The wandering barbarians, when the Yan army arrives at their land, they should surrender with bare hands to meet the king's division. But they tried in vain to act as a chariot and resist for four months. The current plan is to slaughter all their clansmen, hang their heads high, and Police Wan Guo.' These words are in my ears, and I will never forget them. Later, when I saw that you were so close to the prince, I was worried that your murderous intentions would make the prince violent. But after watching these years, the prince has not changed at all. , but I was too worried."

The tone is casual and ordinary, not like a compliment.Chu Yu said: "He will not change, let him be happy."

Yan Bo nodded and said: "The crown prince is too gentle and kind, just like a scabbard without a sword. It is inevitable that people will covet it. Someone needs to be his sword."

Chu Yu glanced outside, Fang said: "The Taifu's words mean something, I'll take a guess, but because Shun'an Hou Yuanxi is coming back?"

Yan Bo was surprised: "This is a secret decree in the palace, how did you know?"

Chu Yu said calmly: "It's no secret no matter how careful you are when you say something out of your mouth."

Yan Bo looked at him for a moment, then sighed softly: "Your Majesty has not changed at all, that's all. The Emperor called Shun'an Hou back at such a time, it is really worrying. He has been away for many years, and the old man is also worried about his temperament now." It's hard to say too much, but he has been a man with a strong heart since he was a child. If he thinks about it... Since ancient times, the battle for succession has hurt the country. Dayan must not have any more infighting. The crown prince will not be on guard against him, so I can only ask the prince to be more careful."

Chu Yu thought for a moment, then said abruptly: "Teacher, according to what you see, what is the relationship between the crown prince and his elder brother?"

Yan Bo said: "Brothers and friends are respectful and close. The prince is very dependent on him. The prince will not believe ordinary gossip."

Chu Yu sneered and said, "Really, that's a bit troublesome."

Yan Bo picked up a pen, wrote down a few names in a hurry, and handed a piece of jade to him: "The old man still has a few disciples who are useless. I have explained to them before, and I will definitely keep the crown prince's position stable. If it is useful, I will get it." place, you just take the token to find them."

Since the founding of Dayan, civil and military affairs have been favored. These instructions can be said to be very useful. Chu Yu memorized the names one by one in his mind, burned the paper in front of him, and said: "I wrote it down. day, no one will hurt him."

It was almost dawn, and there were more and more officers and soldiers patrolling the city, and there were voices on the road. In order to avoid people's eyes and ears, Chu Yu walked in the deep and deserted alleyway.Yuan Jingshen walked along with him step by step, sizing him up repeatedly.Chu Yu pretended not to know, but when he walked into a dark alley where he couldn't see his fingers, Yuan Jing finally couldn't help it, tugged at his sleeve, and said with some resentment: "Why don't you look at me!"

Chu Yu said casually: "Why, do you want me to take you away?" Then he stretched out his hand.Yuan Jing immediately put his hands behind his back: "No, I want to know what the Taifu told you?"

Chu Yu simply said: "Forgot." Immediately, the people around him were very dissatisfied. If he had claws, he might have scratched them by now.Chu Yu covered his mouth and said threateningly: "What's your name? Are you afraid that people will find you?" Yuan Jing remembered this incident, but he didn't make any more trouble. When he let go, he gave him a hard look: "You You just made me anxious on purpose, you don't really like me at all!"

Chu Yu was dumbfounded by his small appearance of resentment, lowered his head and said, "I don't like you enough?" He embraced his shoulders: "Your Taifu's confession is a confidential and important matter, so I don't want to say more. If His Royal Highness really wants to know, then give me some benefits and buy me off."

Yuan Jing said blankly: "...what's the benefit?"

I couldn't see his expression clearly in the darkness, I just felt that he lowered his head slightly, and the hot air blew past his ears: "What do you think?"

Listening to his tone, Yuan Jing was three parts serious and seven parts joking, knowing that he was deliberately teasing himself, so ashamed and annoyed, he pushed him, "I'm ignoring you!"

Chu Yu chuckled, held his hand, and his face returned to seriousness: "He didn't say anything, just let me protect you." His eyes darkened, and his tone was flat: "Also, your Yuan Xi brother is coming back."

Yuan Jing stayed for a few seconds before he could react, and his happy voice changed when he spoke: "Really?! He's coming back?"

The corner of Chu Yu's mouth moved, showing a mocking expression: "So happy?"

Yuan Jing was overjoyed, with smiles on the corners of his eyes and brows: "Of course, I dream of him coming back!" Since then, the smile has not faded all the way, and he has repeated Yuan Xi's name many times, and said that he must have let him go. The sky lantern from here worked.Chu Yu didn't have the slightest affection for this person. Seeing that Yuan Jing never forgot him, he was furious. It's a pity that this time is different from the past, and it is impossible to get angry with Yuan Jing like before.

He held back all the way, and took Yuan Jing into the Prince's Mansion. When he passed a rocky rockery, he had a thought, grabbed his back, and pushed him against the rock wall.

As soon as his tall and strong body pressed over, Yuan Jing panicked and leaned back in a hurry, the back of his head fell into his generous and warm palm, only to hear Chu Yu lightly say: "What are you moving about? It hurts you It's going to make trouble again." While speaking, he bullied himself and fell down.Yuan Jing wanted to bluff at first, but when he rubbed against the tip of his high nose, he felt a thump in his heart, and his resistance was much weaker. He said in a weak voice: "...will be seen by others. arrive……"

Chu Yu stretched out his cloak and completely covered him in this world. Under the dim light, his eyes were as deep as an abyss: "No one can see it now." Touching his cheek with his fingers, his voice was hoarse : "I talked about other men all the way in front of me, huh?"

Yuan Jing didn't expect that he cared about this, and said dissatisfied: "That's my brother!" Sensing his body getting closer, he grabbed his skirt nervously, not daring to argue any more.Chu Yu felt him trembling slightly in his arms. He didn't know if he was shy or afraid, so he pretended to be displeased: "I know it's your brother, but I'm not happy either." Looking at him, his eyes became hotter and his voice became a little bit The meaning of bewitching: "Kiss me? Kiss me once and I won't be angry."

Yuan Jing bit his lip, hesitated for a moment, hugged his neck gently, and left a wet kiss on his lips nervously and boldly.When the figure left, Chu Yu only felt the blood rushing all over his body, his lower abdomen seemed to be on fire, and his breathing became hot. Instead, he pressed his hand on the rock wall and wanted to kiss him, Yuan Jing said in a panic : "You said you'd be fine with a kiss!"

Chu Yu's arrow was on the string and stopped abruptly.Leaning on his shoulder to calm down for a moment, she got up with a slightly tired expression, and tidied his messy hair reluctantly: "Forget it, I'll let you off this time."

Yuan Jing also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, obediently put his hand in his palm, and followed him back, not daring to talk nonsense on the way.It was Chu Yu who took the initiative to ask him, and asked Yuan Xi to live without a fixed place after he came back. Does he have any arrangements as a younger brother?Yuan Jing couldn't figure out whether he really wanted to know or was testing himself, and looked at him with fluttering eyelashes.Chu Yu smiled and said, "Can I really be jealous of your brother?"

Yuan Jing thought: "Didn't you just now?" The two sat together, Chu Yu thought about Cao Ruyi's words, asked Xiao Liu to bring some warming and nourishing food, and watched him eat.Yuan Jing settled a big event in his mind, and gained some appetite, so he ate some with him.I just heard Chu Yu say: "You brothers have a good relationship. He must miss you very much when he is away all the year round. Why don't you invite him to live in the Prince's Mansion so that you can catch up with him? Called back, based on your respect for elder brother, most likely your restraint will be released."

Yuan Jingxi said: "That's exactly what I mean, it's rare that we can think of it together."

Chu Yu smiled and chatted with him again.When leaving, Yuan Jing reluctantly sent him to the door: "Thank you for taking me to see the Taifu last night."

Chu Yu looked at him: "Thank you, my little prince is in a bad mood, of course I want to make you happy, this time I just want to take you to relax, and my brother will take you to more places in the future."

Looking at his handsome face, Yuan Jing's heart was beating so fast, he suddenly threw himself into his arms, kissed him on the heart, rubbed him again, raised his head and smiled at him, and flew like a bird Ran.Chu Yu watched his back disappear, only then did he understand his intention just now, the tide of emotion surged for a while, and it took a long time before he was willing to take a step forward.Going out of the palace gate, his figure suddenly changed, and Yun Cong who had been hiding from eavesdropping was pulled out from the corner.Yun Cong hissed in pain as his neck was pinched by his iron-like hands.Chu Yu said sternly, "Why did you eavesdrop on us?"

Yun Cong's eyes were full of tears, and he looked very pitiful: "You are my lord, and you are here, of course I want to see you."

Chu Yu sneered, but withdrew his hand: "Did I promise you to recognize me as master?"

Enduring the severe pain in his throat, Yun Cong took out a token from his waist, which was exactly the one that Chu Yu exchanged with the scholar at the Lantern Festival last year.Chu Yu raised his eyebrows: "Why is this thing in your hands?"

Yun Cong took a few deep breaths and calmed down his voice: "From birth, people are destined to be rich and honored, and such generous gifts are unbearable for ordinary people. That scholar doesn't believe me, after getting this token He was born with arrogance, bickered with others in the teahouse, and was severely injured by a mistake, I only exchanged a piece of silver with his family, and his concubine brought it to me immediately." He paused, Looking up at Chu Yu: "I know this is a family token of the Chu family. There are only two tokens in the world. The person who gets it can ask the Chu family to fulfill a wish. General Shenwu gave the other token to the current emperor, so he changed Come to him to win the victory, now the token is in my hands, I don't want the world, I just want to stand by your side."

Yun Cong knelt in front of him, and held the token high in front of Chu Yu with both hands. Chu Yu took it over and weighed it with a sarcasm on his face: "Ghostly." Smiling, let out a long sigh of relief.
