Chapter 205: Waiting for the Moment
Yun Jinshu put away the knife and looked at him silently: "How did you do it?" ”
"When I went to see my father, I hid the bracelet under his pillow and poured a lot of water on the mattress.
He slept on it, and he would definitely notice it in a day or two, and I would be around for the moment whenever he went back to his room.
That day, I deliberately angered Nangong Mian, crashed into the room, and caught the current. ”
Nangong Miao said.
"You told me to look for it, and I hope that someone will find the bracelet directly from your father."
"Yes...... Since Grandpa Yun knew that it was with my father, why didn't he go and get it and return it to Princess Yuning earlier? Yun Jinshu's eyes lit up: "You dare to ask me?" Nangong Miao was suddenly frightened and took a step back.
"It doesn't hurt to say it."
Yun Jinshu walked over, "Actually, I didn't know at that time. ”
Nangong Miao lowered his head and didn't dare to look into his eyes.
Yun Jinshu's tall figure stood in front of him, and the pressure was terrifying: "Fortunately, this time it's not a big deal, for the sake of His Royal Highness the Prince's face, I will spare the third prince first." ”
Nangong Miao whispered thanks.
"But on the princess's side."
Yun Jinshu warned in a deep voice, "You'd better do it yourself." ”
As soon as the words fell, the white clothes floated away.
Nangong Miao stood stiffly for a long time, and when he looked back, he no longer saw the figure of Yun Jinshu.
…… After retiring from the court, the old emperor heard that his baby daughter had come to greet him, so he hurriedly hurried back to the Chenji Palace.
Chu Yuewan was eating shortbread in his room, and when he heard the news that everyone had come to kneel, only Chu Yuewan reluctantly stuffed the remaining half of the shortbread into his mouth before wiping his mouth and crawling down.
It's a pity that she was a step late, and the old emperor had already come in, and picked her up and hugged her back.
"Do you miss your father and the emperor in the evening?" The old emperor smiled.
Chu Yuewan nodded and said, "I've thought about it, I've thought about it every day", and I really thought helplessly: "Father, I don't come every day but every day or two, do you need to be so excited as if you haven't seen you for half a year?" "But to tell the truth, it's just a brief meeting, and the father is always busy with a lot of things, and it's not easy to find a chance to talk.
In the previous life, it was rumored that my father was a mediocre monarch and had no achievements in his life, but Chu Yuewan felt that if these were all "mediocre monarchs", then the subjects would have too vague requirements for the monarch.
"What has my father been busy with lately?" Chu Yuewan asked.
"Those bad things, huh."
The old emperor didn't want to mention it, but once he complained, he couldn't stop, "Naturally, Zhen Song Guo knew that he was blocking me in the day, and none of the small countries around him had peace of mind, they only knew that they wanted money and money, and they were becoming more and more greedy......" He muttered and complained to Chu Yuewan about the things of the previous dynasty, but he didn't talk about the inside story very deeply, and Chu Yuewan sounded like an ordinary daily life.
Since childhood, her father likes to "release himself" on her and her mother's side, which led to the early moon evening following and listening to the daily life of many officials, and admiring those who dare to play directly and fight with their father.
Maybe my father thinks she doesn't understand anything and doesn't care about anything, so he can talk to her about everything so relaxed, right? Chu Yue Wan thought so.
However, the early moon night really listened to the left ear and the right ear bubbled, and I didn't care at all.
This time she paid a little attention, Zhen Songguo and King Jingjun's affairs were linked, and she felt that this time it was more or less related to herself.
"In short, it will be solved, don't take it to heart later."
The old emperor finished complaining, and rubbed her head as usual.
The early moon handed him a shortbread: "Father is wise and martial!" The old emperor was triumphant, and his mustache curled up with his lips.
"Why did you run to Jingjun Wangfu again in the evening?" After the old emperor finished speaking, he circled back to his heart.
"Because I had strange dreams."
Chu Yuewan did not shy away this time, "I dreamed that the Jingjun Wangfu was empty, and when I saw the third prince in the Ferris Tower that day, I went to condole by the way." ”
"Hahaha, isn't his family fine, how can he go to condolences for a dream scene?"
"The chaotic dreams of the evening are sometimes foreshadowed, of course, you have to go and see them to feel at ease."
The old emperor sighed and felt that this was indeed the case.
"But you can also ask someone else to comfort you in the future."
The old emperor said.
Chu Yuewan is not good at arguing with his father about this kind of thing, so he simply shakes his head and plays tricks: "Wanwan sometimes can't control himself......"
"Okay, okay, my father is worried about you."
The old emperor immediately relented.
Chu Yuewan can easily take him down every time, so unexpected.
"Father, there is a small request."
The first moon put on a sincere expression.
"What are the requirements? Say it late. ”
The old emperor eats shortbread.
"If King Jingjun can't escape punishment this time, I hope that my father can let him go for the sake of the third prince of Nangong taking the initiative to provide clues."
Chu Yue said in the evening.
The old emperor did not hesitate: "Of course you can, such a simple thing, I said it every night, then this kid will be lucky." ”
Chu Yuewan happily leaned over and kissed him on his old face.
"Oh, I'm so pathetic."
The old emperor frowned deliberately, "If you want to get close to your daughter, you have to borrow the light of outsiders." ”
"Father~ You're starting again!"
"Don't make trouble, don't make trouble, I'm closest to my father and emperor tonight, and it has nothing to do with others, hahaha."
…… At night, the East Palace.
Nangong Miao has been granted the grace of the Holy Order, and now he has returned to live in the palace, and someone is specially protecting him.
Chu Yongwang's brief stay is over.
After Yun Jinshu explained the results of today's inquiry to him, he also went home, saying that maybe he would come out again to act publicly after King Jingjun's trial.
Chu Yongwang just went with him.
Maybe it's because of the cold spring, every night the wind is terrifying, and the lanterns seem to be blown over.
Jia Jingjing ordered someone to block the window and lit a stove in the dormitory.
Chu Yongwang had already freshened up and returned to the couch, ready to sleep, but he couldn't lie down in peace.
"Father-in-law Jia."
Chu Yongwang called him.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, what do you command?" Jia Jingjing hurriedly walked over.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, what do you command?" Jia Jingjing hurriedly walked over.
"Leave a door tonight."
Chu Yongwang said, "Let the people who serve not come in first." ”
Jia Jingjing was a little uncertain in her heart, and was about to persuade her, but Chu Yongwang shook her head.
"Can the old slave stay?" Jia Jingjing still didn't worry about him.
Recently, Chu Yongwang seems to be getting more and more lonely, and he can still be by his side many times, but now he locks himself in the dormitory every night, and the nearest attendant can only stay at the door.
Since the last time there was a big fuss in the study, Jia Jingjing felt that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was getting more and more wrong.
"Father-in-law Jia ......," Chu Yongwang said and shook his head, "I'm just...... I want to be alone and quiet. ”
"Yes."
Jia Jingjing had no choice but to agree.
Everyone packed up their things and retreated one by one, leaving the door of the dormitory behind, and everyone retreated to the outside of the corridor to station.
Chu Yongwang got up from the bed, sat in front of the mirror, and grabbed the rouge box with trembling hands.
Every time he feels nervous and helpless, he wants to break free from the shackles of the identity of the "prince".
And no matter how much he looked at himself, he always felt that he was tightly bound and could not break free, and only by jumping out of this skin, denying his majesty as a prince, and denying all those lofty and serious definitions, he seemed to be like a man.
He put on women's clothes and painted women's makeup, never because he wanted to be a woman.
is only the identity of "Jiu Niang", which is the most incompatible with "Prince".
Chu Yongwang looked up at his haggard self in the mirror, this paleness and powerlessness deeply eroded the bone marrow, and the eyes of others were judging his every move every moment, he was like a caged bird in the water and the moon, at the mercy of others, and it would be broken at the touch of a button.
But if it goes on like this...... If this continues...... Are you going to go crazy? Chu Yongwang hurriedly let go of the rouge box, the small porcelain jar fell to the ground, he leaned over to pick it up, and when he got up, he suddenly felt a strange feeling, and turned his head to look in the mirror.
He froze in astonishment.
In the mirror, behind him, a figure appeared.
The candlelight in the room was faint, and he couldn't see the man's face clearly.
Chu Yongwang was a little puzzled.
"Qiu Ming?" He asked.
The other party did not answer.
"Do you think the East Palace is a vegetable market? Come and go as you want. ”
