Su Jie finally listened to Zhou Zaiyue's words patiently.
"Did you talk?" After a moment of silence, Su Jie asked.
Zhou Zaiyue bowed deeply to him, his cloudy but wise eyes were full of deep and sincere expectations, he knew that he needed to give Su Jie time to digest these words, so he didn't ask Su Jie to make a decision immediately, but Said: "The old man is stepping back first. I hope you can think about it carefully. During this time, the old man will live in Prince Rui's Mansion to protect your safety."
explain. Zhou Zaiyue didn't wait for Su Jie to answer, but left consciously.
Su Jie took a deep breath. His brows were tightly frowned, and there was a feeling of unreality in his mind. He watched Zhou Zaiyue close the door of the room for him with complex expressions, and his thoughts were extremely disturbed for a while.
"By the way, I haven't asked what is the relationship between Zhou Zaiyue and Xiao Shengnian?" Su Jie had the urge to never see Zhou Zaiyue, so that he would not know so many things, and now he has to worry about these things trouble.
He has believed most of what Zhou Zaiyue said, after all, he has nothing worthy of such respect from an old man, unless what Zhou Zaiyue said is true.
But all this is too dreamy, Su Jie never thought that his life experience would be so tortuous and rough.
When he was three years old, his family was slaughtered, Su Shuzhi and Jinzheng took him away, after that, Zhou Zaiyue worked hard to find him for sixteen years.
It's a pity that Su Jie has no memory of before the age of three. The hometown in his memory has always been that simple and peaceful village.
Su Jie has been in the same place since Zhou Zaiyue left. He kept this posture until the comatose Yujiang woke up. Opening the mouth interrupted Su Jie's thoughts: "My lord?"
Yu Jiang got up from the floor, looking a little dazed, and asked, "My lord, where is that old man?"
"gone."
"Gone? Then why did I faint on the ground?" Yu Jiang tilted his head.
Su Jie didn't answer. He was silent, like a statue.
Xiao Shengnian didn't come back until after lunch, he just put Dahua in the cage today. Then he received an imperial decree from the palace, and the emperor wanted to summon nine princes in the imperial study.
Xiao Shengnian still beautifully maintained her cowardly and incompetent image in front of the emperor. The well-behaved one had lunch with the brothers, and then dragged the tired gentleman back.
Meet Su Jie. Xiao Shengnian suddenly remembered that he promised to take Su Jie to see Zhou Zaiyue after lunch. But Su Jie replied: "I have seen him before."
Seeing that Su Jie was not very affectionate, Xiao Shengnian knew that the conversation between the two might not be pleasant, and Zhou Zaiyue might choose to leave without saying goodbye when he was in the palace. Therefore, Xiao Shengnian sighed with some regret: "Unfortunately, I still can't keep the teacher after all."
"teacher?"
Su Jie's ears moved slightly, and a trace of surprise flashed across his eyes.
Zhou Zaiyue is Xiao Shengnian's teacher
Could it be that Xiao Shengnian is also a pawn that Zhou Zaiyue has laid out for sixteen years
Su Jie's mind naturally had the idea of using Zhou Zaiyue to kill Xiao Shengnian, so that he could leave Prince Rui's mansion as soon as possible and return to King Qin's sect to be a sharp knife. Just like before.
Unfortunately, from the moment Zhou Zaiyue appeared, Su Jie's fate cannot be decided by him alone.
And Su Jie can't kill Xiao Shengnian for the time being, because a living Xiao Shengnian may be of more use value to King Qin, if he kills all the princes except King Qin, the emperor will definitely be furious. And King Qin could not ascend the throne smoothly.
What King Qin wants is to inherit the throne in a legitimate way, not to bear infamy.
"Did the teacher return the jade pendant to you?" Xiao Shengnian asked casually when he saw the jade pendant hanging from Su Jie's waist, but he didn't intend to wait for Su Jie's reply. Xiao Shengnian had the habit of taking a nap, since Zhou Zaiyue has already left, so there is no need for him to stay with Su Jie again.
"The old man didn't leave, he said he would live in Prince Rui's Mansion." Seeing that Xiao Shengnian was about to turn around and leave, Su Jie subconsciously reached out and grabbed his sleeve.
Su Jie had an illusion, an illusion that Xiao Shengnian would never come in after stepping out of this door.
At this moment, Su Jie suddenly thought of why Xiao Shengnian's attitude towards him had changed before - because of Zhou Zaiyue.
It was probably because Xiao Shengnian saw the pattern on his jade pendant here, and knew the importance of this pattern to Zhou Zaiyue, so he rushed to find Zhou Zaiyue a few days ago.
And Zhou Zaiyue recognized Yupei, so he came to the capital specially to confirm his identity.
Moreover, from Xiao Shengnian's tone, it seemed that he respected Zhou Zaiyue very much. If Zhou Zaiyue left, Xiao Shengnian would definitely feel regretful and dissatisfied, and therefore neglected Su Jie.
"Teacher wants to stay?" The smile on Xiao Shengnian's lips was full of sincere joy. He has absolute trust and admiration for Zhou Zaiyue. If he can get Zhou Zaiyue's help, he will definitely be able to ascend to Yanhui Kingdom the throne.
The current emperor of Yanhui Country is hardworking and a wise monarch. It is precisely because of the extraordinary ambition of the current emperor that any prince who stands out and is eager to show off will be feared and suppressed by the emperor.
If not, Xiao Shengnian would not have tried his best to pretend to be so harmless and weak, because his father wanted to expand his territory and his name would last forever, and even his own capable son could not show outstanding talents, because what the emperor needs is A filial and obedient son, not an outstanding heir who is ambitious and wants to ascend the throne.
