Zhou Shizhi put on a sympathetic expression, and sighed softly after a while of silence: "In this way, His Royal Highness is really wronged! In this case, why does Your Highness endure this useless attitude, why don't you tell the truth in front of the emperor and queen? One or two? Even if the emperor doesn't believe it, the empress will definitely believe His Highness the Crown Prince!"
When the prince heard Zhou Shizhi mention the queen, his expression flashed unnaturally, but he quickly covered it up and sighed: "The queen mother is the biological mother of the lonely king, so naturally she believes in the lonely king, and the lonely king also follows her." The queen mother has complained about her grievances! But we can only shut the door and let our mother and son talk about it, so what? Although the father didn't say anything, he was actually annoyed in his heart. The third child had already entered the father's place. Slander, at this time the lonely king will distinguish, how can the father believe it? Maybe he will be even more angry, thinking that the lonely king does not know how to repent! Besides, this kind of thing is groundless and will only become darker and darker. Instead, it's better not to say it! It's still the same sentence, the clear will become clear and the turbid will become turbid. After a long time, Father will naturally understand!"
"In this way, His Highness the Crown Prince has been wronged! His Highness will leave Beijing in a few days, and it seems that he was involved in this incident for no reason!" Zhou Shizhi echoed and sighed.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was secretly happy when he heard his injustice, and at the same time, he really felt a little good, but he shook his head and sighed: "When it comes to grievances, there is nothing you can do! But it is reasonable to go out of Beijing to worship the ancestors." As it should be! It’s not worth getting involved.”
"His Royal Highness is really an open-minded person! I made a slip of the tongue, ashamed, ashamed!" Zhou Shizhi said with a smile, half-seriously, half-jokingly: "In fact, it's good to go out of Beijing, maybe the ancestors heard the prince's heart, Seeing the grievances of the crown prince, I wish the crown prince in the dark to turn the bad luck into good luck, and make the disaster auspicious, so that everything will be smooth sailing and everything goes well from now on!"
"Yo, then I will lend you a good word!" The prince was naturally very useful when he heard this, but he didn't think about whether he was really wronged or not.
The two looked at each other and laughed.
"Tell me, should you be on guard against someone like the third child who pretends to be a pig and eats a tiger?" The prince raised his eyebrows and said coldly.
"If so, of course it should!" Zhou Shizhi followed his words.
"You're right! It should be!" The prince said again: "He has a gloomy mind and deep scheming, and he is not the only one who is scheming. Cousin, you have also been scheming by him!"
"Me?" Zhou Shizhi never expected that His Royal Highness had poured out his grievances for a long time, and when he said this sentence, he was immediately taken aback—he was really stunned.
Immediately, Zhou Shizhi laughed, and said with a disbelieving smile: "His Royal Highness, are you joking? I have nothing worth calculating!"
Hearing this, the prince stared at him deeply, and smiled meaningfully, which made Zhou Shizhi laugh so hard that his heart ached.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince has something to say, you might as well just say it. Your Majesty, it's really strange! How come I don't know anything about the Third Highness plotting against me..." Zhou Shizhi asked full of doubts.
The prince couldn't help laughing out loud, and said, "If you knew, how could he be calculating? That's not called calculating!"
Zhou Shizhi was taken aback for a moment, and said with a broken smile, "What the prince said is absolutely true!" He still looked at the prince eagerly.
The crown prince looked directly at him, and asked word by word in an unhurried manner: "Gu Wang has something to ask you first, is Miss Lu Er from Changping Hou's Mansion your fiancée?"
Zhou Shi's heart trembled, and he guessed about what the prince was going to say.
He was suddenly a little embarrassed and embarrassed, and said with a smile: "It's not considered..."
"That's about the same!" The crown prince interrupted him involuntarily, and said, "Although you haven't had a clear path, you are just short of a clear path! Didn't you two go through hardships together and have a deep relationship? One is right and wrong, and the other is not married. Won't you marry me?"
Zhou Shizhi immediately looked a little embarrassed, but looked at the prince in confusion.
"You don't have to be embarrassed," the prince said with a faint smile, "You don't have to think about how the lonely king found out, you just say yes or no!"
The prince wants to force Zhou Shizhi to form an alliance with him, what better reason than this? With the relationship and status between him and Lu Xiaoshu, if he knew what the third child was thinking, how could he not hate him
Zhou Shizhi nodded embarrassingly, and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness laughed! Xiaoshu and I are indeed—haha!"
Calling so affectionately, it can be seen that the relationship is really good, that's good! The prince was secretly happy and relieved.
"What's so embarrassing about that, you two are really a natural couple!" The crown prince smiled, suddenly his expression changed, he snorted and said: "Then you know, the youngest also likes Miss Lu Er! "
Under Zhou Shizhi's shocked eyes, the prince continued: "The second girl Lu went to the East Palace last time as a guest, and when she came out, the youngest happened to be looking for the lonely king. He stared at the eyes of the second girl Lu. It's so clear, Gu Wang can see that he really likes Second Miss Lu! Thinking about it now, it's not without reason that he saved Second Miss Lu in the palace that day!"
When the third prince rescued Lu Xiaoshu in the palace, it was his concubine who made things difficult for Lu Xiaoshu. The prince felt a little embarrassed when talking about this matter, so he didn't go into details, but only vaguely mentioned it. past. His purpose was just to make Zhou Shizhi believe his words.
Zhou Shizhi already knew the third prince's thoughts on Lu Xiaoshu, but he was still very unhappy when he heard what the prince said at this time, and he couldn't help showing a little bit of it on his face, which was a bit unpleasant.
The prince was secretly happy when he saw it, glanced at him and said: "Maybe my cousin doesn't know yet? The third child has already asked the queen mother to give him the second girl Lu as his side concubine! If it wasn't for the lonely king that day When I went to hear these few words, I stopped him, I am afraid that the Lu family has already accepted Yi's decree!"
Although Zhou Shizhi clearly knew that the prince was lying, he still felt a little sweaty in his heart. He stood up and bowed his hands to the prince to thank him: "Thank you, prince, I really can't repay you!"
"Cousin, please sit down, there is no need to be so polite!" The prince waved his hand and said, "The reason why the lonely king did that is because he couldn't bear to see your lovers being torn apart. Secondly, the lonely king really can't see the old man. San's idea is flamboyant! He clearly likes the second girl Lu, and while he was thinking of accepting the second girl Lu as his side concubine, at the same time, he wanted to rely on a powerful Yue family and marry someone else's girl as the princess! The second girl Lu What a good person, how can he be bullied like this! The lonely king really can't stand it!"
Zhou Shizhi couldn't help but sneered twice, and remained silent.
Seeing him like this, the prince knew that he had listened to at least half of what he said, so he sighed: "It's just that the lonely king was able to stop him once, but he can't have such good luck every time. Next time, it will be hard to say! Cousin Can you really swallow the hatred of taking your wife!"
Zhou Shizhi still didn't speak, but his expression became even more ugly.
The crown prince didn't urge him, and added another rage: "As long as you are a man, you can't swallow this breath!"
As he spoke, he smiled softly again, and said: "Princess Qinglan is kind enough to help the second girl Lu protect her cousin, but who can protect the second girl Lu? It depends on whether the cousin has the heart Already!"
Zhou Shizhi was silent for a moment, and almost squeezed out a word between his teeth: "My wife, Zhou Shizhi, of course can't be calculated so easily! Let alone the relationship between me and Xiaoshu. The Third Highness is really deceiving!"
The prince was overjoyed when he heard this, but he sighed: "He doesn't even pay attention to the elder brother, the lonely king, and he is so deliberate and scheming, let alone you?"
Zhou Shiyi raised his eyebrows, looked at the prince and said bluntly: "I am a straightforward person, if you say something wrong, your highness, don't blame me! Your highness told me this, did you have any good ideas! Your highness, please give me some advice!"
"You really think so?" the prince asked.
Zhou Shizhi nodded: "Is there still a fake?"
The prince's eyes froze, and his eyes shone brightly. He locked him tightly and said word by word: "Prince Baoben! As long as you, Prince Baoben, ascend to the throne, won't this matter be solved?"
After talking for a long time, it turned out that it was because of this sentence! It's really embarrassing for him, it took so long to speak out!
"You are supposed to protect you, you are His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" Zhou Shizhi agreed without thinking, but before the Crown Prince was happy, he continued: "But before the death of my father, the king left a precept from the ancestors. , the children and grandchildren are not allowed to participate in all kinds of struggles for the emperor's heir, so what the humble minister can do is just protect the crown prince..."
Zhou Shizhi's words were almost equivalent to disharmony: Don't ask me to do things like assassination and assassination!
Zhou Shizhi's brain is not broken. Once he did that kind of thing, there is no possibility of going back after the beginning. He doesn't want to get caught up in this.
The prince was stunned for a moment, then became silent, but he was thinking quickly.
The crown prince knew about Zhou Shizhi's skills, and he originally wanted to count on him to work for him, but now it seems that it will not work!
The crown prince doesn't believe a single word of the old prince's dying ancestral precepts! He obviously didn't want to join in.
However, he also showed that he would not fight against himself, right? Moreover, since he said to protect himself, he can't refuse to ask him to help with something when necessary, right
No matter how good the second girl of the Lu family is, she is still a woman. Even if Zhou Shizhi has a good relationship with her, can he lose all his wealth and life for a woman? If it was him, he couldn't either!
Therefore, it is not bad to have this harvest today.
The future is long, and other things can come slowly...
"The cousin must have misunderstood! The lonely king didn't do anything else, but the third child did too much, so teach him a lesson, lest his heart get bigger and do other things that shouldn't be done to make his father The emperor and queen mother are sad!" The prince thought it through in a blink of an eye, and said with a smile: "You have always been a person who values promises, and the lonely king can rest assured with your few words! Don't worry, in the future the lonely king will be on the great treasure, Lu No one can take you away from the second girl of the family! If you can't even keep your own wife, it will be a waste of your life!"
