The young man in a red robe lying on the jade railing turned his head lazily when he heard the sound, and his eyes narrowed slightly on his handsome face.

His whole body seemed to be as soft as no bones, but when he looked at people like this, he looked like a napping tiger suddenly opened his eyes, which made people feel a chill in their hearts.

Even if he has been with him day and night for many years, Chen Zihan will instinctively feel worried every time he sees this look.

But fortunately, the young man in red looked at it twice and then fell back, and said expressionlessly, "Zihan, you're here." ”

"Second Highness, don't scare me, I'm just joking, are you like this?" Chen Zihan walked to the young man's side from behind, and his heart palpitated.

"Why are you still on duty in the palace tonight?" The red-clothed young man didn't answer his words, turned his back to the young guard and said lightly, "Shouldn't you take a break today?" ”

Chen Zihan frowned slightly when he heard this, clenched the long knife at his waist, and said lightly, "That's the case, but when I went home, I found that my eldest brother had come back, saying that he was going to stay at home for two days." ”

"You know my mother, if you see me, you have to ask me to compare myself with that person," Chen Zihan's face flashed with disgust, "What's the point of comparing it for so many years, it's better to continue to go back to the palace on duty." ”

"So you transferred shifts and ran back to hide from Qingjing?" The red-clothed young man sneered when he heard this, "How rare is Xiu Mu, what's wrong with you competing with your eldest brother?" ”

There was a hint of anger in the young man's eyes, "You can't compare to him." ”

"How about beating him?" Chen Zihan's face was expressionless, "What if all Nanchu knows that I am stronger than him?" ”

Could he be able to take the place of the son of that man's wife? Or will his mother get rid of his stepwife's position as she wished?

"Besides, the Elementary Ceremony is coming, but I beat our Nan Chu's stepson all over the ground in my house?" Chen Zihan looked at the thin young man beside him wordlessly, "Second Highness, are you okay?" Are you still our Second Highness of Nanchu? ”

In the night, Chen Zihan, the second son of the Great Sima of Southern Chu, silently looked at Jiang Liang, the second son of Jiang Liang, the king of Southern Chu, and Jiang Yuan, the second highness of Southern Chu.

Xindao is not a spy sent by the enemy country, right?

"There's no one else here, I told you, just call me by my name." The red-clothed young man looked at the guards beside him lightly.

"Okay, no problem," Chen Zihan nodded, and called out with kindness, "Jiang Yuanyuan." ”

With a bang, a pop exploded above the young guard's head, and His Royal Highness Jiang Yuan, Second Highness of Nanchu, Oh no, Jiang Yuanyuan withdrew his hand, "How long will your name last?" ”

Chen Zihan looked helpless, "It was when you first met me that told me that your name was Jiang Yuanyuan instead of Jiang Yuan." ”

The young man in red was stunned, looked at the bright moon in the sky and stopped talking.

"Yuan Yuan, after my mother leaves, you will beg your father if you have something in the future."

Jiang Yuanyuan was the name given to him by his mother when he was a child in the cold palace, and when he was born, the man didn't even remember to give him a name.

If it weren't for the fact that the man's son died one litter after another, the man probably wouldn't have remembered for the rest of his life that he still had a son left in the cold palace.

And after Jiang Yuanyuan's mother died, no one expected that His Royal Highness, who was originally in good health, would suddenly fall ill and linger on the sickbed, and he was finally remembered by the King of Southern Chu and taken out of the cold palace.

He was asked his name, and the man was silent for a moment when he heard his name, and then said, "You will be called Jiang Yuan in the future." ”

Overnight, Jiang Yuanyuan became Jiang Yuan, and the nameless prince in the cold palace became the hot second highness of Southern Chu.

Jiang Yuanyuan rarely explained this, and there were few people in this world who would call him by his name, except for the crazy boy in front of him who did not have to inherit the family business and was determined to live unscrupulously.

"If you want to call it, call it," Jiang Yuanyuan lazily leaned back to the railing, "Why did you suddenly mention the former Qin princess just now?" ”

Chen Zihan stiffened, thinking that this stubble had been removed. He imitated Jiang Yuanyuan's appearance, let go of the handle of the knife, leaned on the railing, looked up at the moon and said lightly, "Isn't this because our Highness is hurting the gods in this pair of moons." ”

"Which eye of yours saw me hurt?" Jiang Yuanyuan glanced at him.

"Princess Qianqin arrived, and your majesty let her live directly in the National Teacher's Mansion without even seeing anyone," Chen Zihan patted him on the shoulder, "After all, it's your original fiancée, so it's normal to be sad." Brother, I know everything, you don't have to be embarrassed. ”

Even if you don't have to inherit the family business, this kid is too presumptuous, Jiang Yuanyuan just wants to throw this kid under this high platform now.

Looking at the rare bright smile on the young guard's face, Jiang Yuanyuan's eyes were speechless, but it was also a little complicated. Although Chen Zihan has a lot to hide, every time he arrives at this time, he will realize that the "cold-faced guard" in the eyes of the people of Nanchu Palace is indeed the younger brother of Chen Zichu, the "peach blossom boy" of Jixia School Palace.

"Others don't know, don't you know," facing Chen Zihan's teasing gaze, Jiang Yuanyuan said lightly, "You know very well how this marriage contract fell on Ji Jiashu." ”

Chen Zihan retracted the smile at the corner of his mouth, and quietly looked at the sixteen-year-old red-clothed young man in front of him, but it was already impossible to see the depth clearly.

That's right, others don't know, but he, the henchman of the Second Highness, knows it clearly.

Know what kind of means this weak young man has.

For example, how he secretly manipulated the court of Nanchu, and asked the king of Nanchu to open his mouth and reward the marriage contract that would have fallen on him to the people below.

"You obviously know that I'm not interested in that woman," Jiang Yuanyuan said lightly, "Why did you suddenly remember to mention her?" ”

"Not interested?" Chen Zihan glanced at him, and then surrendered under the young man's scrutinizing gaze, "Okay, when I went home, I met my eldest brother, said a few words, and mentioned that woman." ”

Jiang Yuanyuan nodded, Chen Zichu went out of the city to pick up the princess at the behest of Ji Jiashu, this matter had already come from the border, and the Royal Intelligence Department had already received the news.

But Chen Zichu looked frivolous, but he actually knew the severity very well, and it was impossible to say too much to Chen Zihan.

For example, what happened today in the Jixia School Palace.

Otherwise, Chen Zihan would be interested in another woman at this time.

"My eldest brother didn't say anything, but there were officials at the border who had seen that princess before, and there was a lot of news," Chen Zihan leaned on the railing and laughed, "I heard that it's a beauty." ”

"I asked my eldest brother, he didn't deny it, he didn't deny that the proof should be good," Chen Zihan looked at Jiang Yuanyuan and said, "You don't regret it?" ”

"Regrets?" Jiang Yuanyuan chuckled, since he became the second highness, he has never seen any beauty, how many Nanchu families want to stuff beauties to him, but what he needs is not these, "My marriage must be sold at a good price." ”

The young man smiled lazily, and the smile was not as good as his eyes.

What he needs is help, what he needs is support. He no longer has a strong maternal family, and if he wants to gain a foothold in the court, survive in this harem, and snatch that position from his eldest brother, his wife must be able to bring him enough power.

But none of these were available to the former Qin princesses.

"I'm more interested in another piece of news than this," Jiang Yuanyuan said lightly.

"What's the news?" Chen Zihan's eyes widened.

"News has just come from the Intelligence Department," Jiang Yuanyuan squinted his eyes as he looked at him.

"Today, there is a female bachelor in the Jixia School Palace."
