After being trapped in the villa for two whole days, he didn't even see the shadow of the prince.
However, everyone in the villa was very polite to Qi Changyi and Chengfeng, providing them with good food and drink, but refusing to let them leave.
The situation outside is still unclear for the time being, so Chengfeng held his breath and stayed by Qi Changyi's side.
On the third day, someone finally came to the villa. It was a confidant of the prince. He said that he was following the order of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to take the prince to the palace.
Qi Changyi looked at Chengfeng happily and said, "Afeng, can we go now? Is Brother Pei waiting for us in the palace?"
Chengfeng glanced at the team escorting them into the palace. They were all dressed in brocade clothes and well-equipped with armor. They were not ordinary guards.
He clenched his sword and blocked the door to the room.
Seeing that the two people in the room were taking a long time to come out, the confidant took out the prince's badge.
"Since you are the guard beside Lord Pei, you must know this. Why don't you salute when you see the badge of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
Cheng Feng nodded slightly, then said coldly, "His Royal Highness cannot follow you into the palace."
"How dare you! Do you dare to disobey the order of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
Chengfeng drew his sword. He sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere of these people, so he could not let His Highness go with them no matter what.
The confidant gave a signal, and the guards around him all went into the house and surrounded the two people inside.
Chengfeng was about to summon up his internal strength, but he felt as if all the internal strength in his body had been drained away, and he couldn't even swing his sword.

The confidant picked up the teacup that had not been put away on the table and said with a smile, "Isn't it too late to find out now? But don't worry, the food and tea these two boys eat are only slightly toxic. It's just that they can't use their internal energy. They will recover in two days. Your Highness the Crown Prince doesn't have the heart to do anything heavy to the prince."
After he finished speaking, his expression changed, "Take them both away!"
The carriage swayed all the way into the palace. Qi Changyi was locked up alone in the carriage with his hands tied tightly, unable to break free at all.
After the carriage stopped, Qi Changyi was led off the carriage, and then his eyes were covered with a black cloth. Someone led him forward, passing through several roads and corridors. He didn't know where he was going, but suddenly he entered a palace. It was very warm inside, and there was a strong smell of burning incense.
The people around him left, and Qi Changyi stood there alone, turning around twice in a daze. He didn't know where he was, and he couldn't see, so his hearing became more sensitive.
He heard footsteps behind him and his body tensed up nervously, then the black cloth in front of him was suddenly pulled open.
"ah!"
"It's me."
The surrounding environment was a little dim, and the curtains of the bedroom were drawn to block out the light.
Pei Zheng was still holding the black cloth in one hand and had his other hand around his waist. The little guy's eyes were full of fear and panic, and he stared at Pei Zheng's face for a long time before he recovered.
"Did you see it clearly?"
Qi Changyi blinked hard.
Pei Zheng asked again, "No more shouting?"
Qi Changyi continued to blink hard. Now that he knew it was Brother Pei, he was no longer afraid and would not scream anymore.
Pei Zheng then slowly loosened his fingers. He hadn't seen the person he had been thinking about day and night for several days. The longing and desire were like poison that was deeply pent up in his heart. Now that he finally saw the antidote, his temper became even more out of control.
Before the little guy could react to what was happening, Pei Zheng had already pressed him into his arms, holding the back of his head with one hand, burying his face in his delicate neck, and breathing hot air into him.
"My dear, I'm in pain. Give me a hug, brother."
Qi Changyi's hands were still tied behind his back, and Pei Zheng was holding him tightly. His soft waist was bent backwards unnaturally, and the posture was a little uncomfortable. He muttered aggrievedly, "Brother Pei, why did you find me just now?"
Pei Zheng kissed his neck, "It's my fault."
Qi Changyi complained in a low voice, "Brother Pei, you don't know, it was the Crown Prince who locked me up. He also had someone poison me and Afeng, and tied me up."
Pei Zheng rubbed his red wrists but did not help him untie them. His eyes were dark.
"I know."
Pei Zheng had also been trapped in the Eastern Palace by Qi Hanlian for two days, and had been secretly collecting information about Qi Hanlian's crimes in Jiangnan. Pei Zheng had also investigated clearly what treasonous things the Eastern Palace had been doing in the past few days.
Since Qi Hanlian had the guts to set his sights on his people, Pei Zheng didn't mind playing along with him.
Ever since Qi Hanlian returned to the palace, Pei Zheng had placed spies around him. When the prince's men brought Qi Changyi into the palace, he had someone bring Qi Changyi to him first.
His little darling had been locked up for two days. Even if he hadn't suffered any harm, he must have been scared, so he had to comfort him himself.
"Brother Pei, why don't you untie me?"
Qi Changyi turned his back and raised his hands to Pei Zheng, signaling him to untie him.
Pei Zheng turned him around.
"I don't understand it now, just be good and listen to me."
After listening to Pei Zheng's words, Qi Changyi pouted and kept silent.
Pei Zheng lifted his chin and asked carefully, "Are you wronged?"
Qi Changyi hummed and said "hmm".
Pei Zheng smiled and kissed him on his pouting lips.
"Are you still feeling aggrieved?"
Qi Changyi turned away, her earlobes turning red, "Brother Pei, you are cheating..."
Before he could finish his words, someone pinched his chin and turned him back.
"Only playing tricks on you."
Then the lips and tongue were entangled tightly again, and were released after a long time. This time the little guy was just breathing slightly, with a pair of watery and misty eyes half-closed.
Pei Zheng pressed his lips with his fingertips and chuckled, "After we go back this time, you don't have to practice swordplay anymore."
Qi Changyi finally came to life, "Really? I don't have to practice anymore?"
Pei Zheng looked at the simple and innocent little guy, his mind was filled with unspeakable images.
This breath kiss is enough, but I don’t know if it’s enough to do something else.
"But Afeng said that I have to study for another year or so."
"I'll tell him."
"But didn't Brother Pei dislike my poor health?"
"I don't dislike you. I love you so much that I can't wait."
“But I almost fainted last time.”
Pei Zheng suddenly laughed, his voice deep and mellow, "What did you say? What happened last time?"
Qi Changyi bit his lower lip and stopped talking. He would never say such an embarrassing thing a second time.
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and someone outside the palace door said softly, "Sir, it's almost time. If no one comes over there, people will become suspicious."
Qi Changyi looked at Pei Zheng eagerly, "Brother Pei, I'm leaving now."
"Well, wait for me."
"You have to come quickly, you know? I'll be scared if I'm alone."
"good."
Pei Zheng tied the black cloth around Qi Changyi's eyes again, then kissed him on the lips comfortingly before handing him back.
Qi Changyi followed Pei Zheng's words and pretended that he had not seen anyone and nothing had happened. He followed the people around him and kept walking, not knowing where he finally stopped.
"Your Highness, the prince has been brought here."
"Well, you go down first."
Someone walked out and the surroundings suddenly became quiet. Qi Changyi's eyes were still blindfolded, and his fingers behind his back were unconsciously clenched together.
Although Brother Pei told him that the Crown Prince would not hurt him, he still couldn't help but feel afraid.
Suddenly, a flash of light appeared in front of my eyes, and the black cloth was split into two halves and fell at my feet.
When Qi Changyi opened his eyes, he saw a sword pointing at the tip of his nose. The person holding the sword was none other than Crown Prince Qi Hanlian.
"Your Highness, my brother, I haven't seen you for so many years. How is he doing?"
Qi Hanlian gave Qi Changyi a fake kind smile, then slowly put away the sword in his hand.
“Oh, who dared to tie up my brother? I will not let them off easily!” Qi Hanlian walked towards Qi Changyi, “Come, I will untie you.”
Qi Hanlian walked behind Qi Changyi and untied him. Seeing the red marks on his delicate wrists, he held them up and pinched them, pretending to be distressed. "Look, you are different after being raised in the palace. You look so delicate and tender, like a little girl."
Qi Changyi pulled his wrist back. He felt that the way the prince looked at him was very uncomfortable, but he couldn't avoid it.
Qi Hanlian was not angry at all when he saw that Qi Changyi was very wary of him. When his younger brother was still young, he was sent to Jiangnan by his father, so the two of them had no interactions and no feelings for each other.
It’s been so many years since we last met, and I didn’t expect that the little baby has grown up to be so beautiful and charming. No wonder she was taken away by Pei Zheng so early.
"Don't be afraid. Don't you remember me? You used to like to play with me, but it seems you have forgotten everything now that you have grown up." Qi Han twisted his fingers and looked at Qi Changyi.
"No, I, I never went to play with Brother Crown Prince. I always went to play with Brother Tang."
"Zhao Litang? Are you still in contact with him?" Qi Hanlian looked a little surprised. "Then did you know that he died in battle at the border?"
Qi Changyi's eyes suddenly widened and he didn't react for a long time.
"What? Impossible, absolutely impossible! Brother Tang will be fine. You must have heard it wrong! It can't be Brother Tang!"
Qi Hanlian shrugged nonchalantly, "Forget it if you don't believe me. This prince has spies in the border areas. The news I just received will probably reach the imperial capital in a while."
