Xu Wei knew that his friend's temperament had always been dull, and no matter how big things happened, he would not change his color.
Something big must have happened today to make him so anxious that he called out in the middle of the night!
But he never thought that this would happen.
"Cough cough cough..."
Before Xu Wei took a sip of hot tea, he was shocked by the news and started coughing.
Unexpectedly, the eldest prince, who had always looked weird, finally showed a reassuring smile!
"Seeing that you are also scared, I am relieved!"
Just as Xu Wei was about to say something, when he heard this sentence again, he almost died of anger.
"Is it fun?"
Hearing this, the eldest prince smiled wryly and shook his head, "It's not fun at all!"
Xu Wei still had a sullen face and didn't want to pay attention to him.
"Okay, okay, don't be angry, I was also frightened, why do you think the father will make the crown prince at this time?"
Xu Wei was not really angry, he also knew that Chu Jiyao must have been frightened, after all even he, an outsider, was frightened.
When it comes to business, Xu Wei is no longer cold-eyed.
"What you should think about is, why did the emperor choose you?"
"Yes, the timing is a bit mysterious right now!"
Both are thinking.
There is only a faint fragrance in the room.
After a long time, Xu Wei opened his mouth and asked solemnly, "Have you really thought about it?"
Chu Jiyao smiled wryly, "Do I have a choice?"
"Actually, over the past few years, you have accumulated quite a lot of influence, so you really haven't thought about that seat?"
Xu Wei couldn't believe it.
Only those who have obtained the right can appreciate the beauty of it!
Just like, poverty restricts a person's imagination, he has never obtained rights, he has never experienced the feeling of being aloof and looking down on everything in the world, it will never be understood!
The former Xie Jingtian probably didn't have ambitions, let alone think about these things.
But now this man, he is the eldest prince of the empire, almost the heir in line, how could he not be tempted
"If I say no, you won't believe it!"
Chu Jiyao smiled slightly, somewhat bitterly.
"Before, I really thought about it, because she wanted the best in the world..."
Xu Wei understood before he finished speaking!
"That's why you accepted the identity of First Prince frankly back then?"
"Yes, I want to give her what she wants, but I was wrong..."
Chu Jiyao seemed to think of something funny, so he laughed out loud.
"Actually, do you really know the Ninth Princess?"
Although Xu Wei couldn't bear it, he has never persuaded his friends for so many years.
After all, when it comes to emotions, it's not that no one involved can understand that emotion.
But now he had to say it.
In the future, Chu Jiyao is no longer an independent person, let alone the eldest prince, he is the monarch of the future empire!
Will bear the unimaginable pressure of ordinary people.
Power and status often correspond to corresponding responsibilities.
"hehe… "
When I went out, I turned my head to look at my friend.
"Drink with me!"
"Okay!" Xu Wei agreed without thinking.
He knew that Chu Jiyao was in a very bad state right now, so he didn't follow him for fear that something would happen to him.
When a person wants something, but can't get it, when he doesn't want it, but finds that he has to accept it, he must be very disappointed!
The bright moon is in the sky, the stars are dotted, and in the middle of the night, the mist shrouds the earth like thin smoke, giving people a sense of hazy silence!
Xu Wei and Chu Jiyao were sitting on the roof, drinking to the moon and chatting casually!
"Maybe I really just have an obsession with her!"
After a long time, there were quite a lot of wine jars in front of the two of them, but they were not drunk at all.
Xu Wei glanced at him, then took another sip of wine on his back, without saying anything.
As for emotional matters, some people say that those in the authorities are confused by the bystanders, but in his opinion, they don't understand when they are in it, let alone bystanders.
So, he never issued any advice.
"Do you know? At the beginning, I told her that she saved my life, so I never forgot her, but when she heard the news, she looked at me helplessly. At that time, I knew she had no feelings for me..."
"If..."
Chu Jiyao took two gulps of wine before continuing.
"Sometimes I wonder, if I agreed to this marriage at the beginning, would she also be tempted by me?"
Xu Wei turned his head to look at him, and said nothing for a long time.
I don't know how to persuade, I don't know what to say, I can only accompany him quietly, maybe after tonight, he no longer has the right to be willful.
"But there are no ifs in this world. I obviously had the opportunity to meet her first, but I was still one step too late..."
Chu Jiyao talked a lot. He was not usually a talkative person, but at this moment the clips of his words were opened, as if he had been holding back his thoughts for many years, and he vomited them out one by one.
At the end of the drink, there was no more wine. The two lay flat on the roof and looked up at the sky. Both eyes were open, but they didn't say a word!
In the winter night, even if the evening wind was gentle, it was chilly, but the two of them lay there quietly as if they didn't notice it.
"Actually Miss Xiao Liu is a good match for the Ninth Prince!"
Xu Wei said softly.
"It's really rare. In the eyes of the world, which woman can be worthy of a character like my Uncle Jiu Wang?"
Chu Jiyao scolded him back.
"Ask yourself, if it were you, even if you gave your all for Miss Six, you would not be able to protect her!"
"Whether you admit it or not, the Ninth Prince seems to be an inscrutable person, but he treats Miss Six with sincerity, and it can even be said that he is reckless!"
"hehe… "
Chu Jiyao burped in disdain, "Regardless of everything, you grew up with him, what kind of person is he? Is there anyone in this world who knows better than you? How dare you say such a thing!"
Xu Wei sighed softly, straightened his hands and put them on top of his head.
"I used to think that he was born cold-blooded. He only cared about Xiaoyun and the emperor in this life. No one else could catch his eyes, including Yuchi Xinhan. But since the sixth girl married into the Ninth Prince's Mansion, everything that happened made me have to change my original thinking. People really change!"
"My Uncle Ninth Prince calculates clearly every step he takes. Don't you know if others don't know? How many times has he used Xiao Ting?"
"These things are not something we can worry about, you just take care of yourself!"
Seeing that he was agitated, Xu Wei said this to him for the first time.
"But I just don't worry!"
"What are you worried about?"
Xu Wei looked at him suspiciously, always feeling that there was something on his mind.
Chu Jiyao's expression was very complicated. He didn't know whether he should talk about this matter, and he didn't know whether it was true or not.
"There's something I never told you!"
"I shouldn't know, you'd better not say it!" Xu Wei has always known his identity, and he has always obeyed the emperor.
Even if this person is his good friend, he will never do anything to betray the emperor.
After so many years in the palace, he knew that sometimes the more he knew, the faster he would die, and there were some things that he would not even dare to touch.
Not because of self-protection, there are many clansmen behind him.
"But I..."
Chu Jiyao lay there and hammered his chest, looking very tangled and uncomfortable.
"Okay, tell me!"
Xu Wei looked like he would risk his life to accompany a gentleman.
The two looked at each other and smiled, then looked away again.
"Presumably you have also heard that the yin-yang physique is about to appear in the world?"
Bringing up this incident for no reason made Xu Wei stunned for a moment.
"This rumor has been going on for a few years, and I haven't seen these Taoist masters see anything. Maybe it's a non-existent thing!"
Xu Wei didn't care too much about this, after all these people were far away from him.
As long as the empire is not subjugated, he will still be a loyal subject.
Those so-called people who endanger the peace of the entire continent are beyond his ability to deal with.
Naturally, it was not his turn to think about it.
"What would you do if I said, I know who this person is?"
"What?" Xu Wei turned over in shock.
"What did you just say? You know who this person is, how do you know?"
Xu Wei's reaction was very special.
"I thought you were going to ask me who this person is first?"
Xu Wei was so angry that he cursed.
"Do you think I'm stupid? You really know his identity, so does he know you?"
After all, Xu Wei was just worried about Chu Jiyao.
Knowing his friend's intentions, Chu Jiyao stopped joking with him.
"Don't worry, he won't hurt me!"
"What do you mean? He knows you?"
Seeing that Chu Jiyao was still shaking his head, Xu Wei almost went mad with anger.
"Say it quickly!"
"You also know this person."
"Me?" Xu Wei pointed at himself in disbelief.
"I know, could it be, is it a person from the empire?"
If it is a member of the empire, then the empire will really be in great trouble. Is it because of this matter that the emperor is so anxious to establish a crown prince
Does that mean that the emperor also knows the identity of this person, if so, is he planning to cover it up
The identity of this person...
Xu Wei quickly analyzed the direction of the matter in an instant.
"We just mentioned it!"
After Chu Jiyao said this, his whole body relaxed.
"What?"
Xu Wei felt that he had received too much fright tonight.
He needs to repeat it again and again, no, his mind is still a little confused.
"You mean, Nine, Nine Princes?"
After receiving an affirmative answer, Xu Wei froze in place!
Nine Princes
It turned out to be the Ninth Prince, how could this be possible
How could the Ninth Prince of the mighty empire become the chief culprit who endangered the entire continent in the future
What's more, there is an empire among them.
"This is impossible!"
"I don't want to believe it either. Besides, I told you that this matter is not true or false!"
Although Chu Jiyao said so, Xu Wei knew that this matter probably could not be faked.
Reminiscent of what the emperor is doing now, I am afraid it is true in all likelihood.
"Then, in your eyes, what should this person who endangers the world look like?"
In order to ease the atmosphere in front of him, Chu Jiyao suddenly asked him such a question.
Xu Wei seriously thought about it.
