Some people say that the emperor's words were a sign of establishing a crown prince. Although Chu Yi has never been favored, this time he did things that were in line with the emperor's wishes, so the emperor began to train him in order to enable him to inherit the throne in the future.
Some people also say that since ancient times, the prince has never held any actual duties. The emperor did this just to let Chu Yi feel at ease and become a prince like the King of Chu.
There were many opinions for a while, but no one could guess the emperor's true thoughts.
Chu Yuanzhou found Chu Yi in the restaurant. As soon as he entered, he smiled and said: "Congratulations to A Yi for winning the beauty home and successfully attracting the emperor's attention."
But there was no joy on Chu Yi's face. He sighed softly and said: "What is calculated, what is there to celebrate? As for Nangong Wushuang, as you said, it will be over in a few years."
Just put her back."
Chu Yuanzhou smiled when he heard this, but Chu Yi sighed softly and said: "I finally sold myself."
After he said this, he drank the wine in the glass in one breath. He rarely drank alcohol on weekdays because he knew that now that he was back in the capital, what awaited him would be a life of shock every step of the way.
Carelessness will cost him his life.
Chu Yuanzhou heard the bitterness in his words, but chuckled: "I think you can change your mind. I have some contact with Nangong Wushuang. This woman is not bad. How can you be so sure that she is not your destiny?"
share?"
Chu Yi said quietly: "Even if she is my destiny, this marriage will always make people feel that it is a transaction, and the object of this transaction is my feelings."
Chu Yuanzhou glanced at him and said: "Ayi..."
"You don't have to persuade me." Chu Yi glanced at him and said, "I know what to do in the future."
Chu Yuanzhou felt a little uncomfortable when he heard Chu Yi's words, but for a moment he didn't know how to persuade him.
Chu Yi smiled faintly at him and said: "Father gave me such a position, so my life in the past will not be too boring."
"I think the emperor's decision to ask you to be the commander of the Jingji Guards this time is just a test." Chu Yuanzhou said with his arms folded in front of his chest.
Chu Yi asked: "What's the explanation?"
"You have been out of favor for many years, but you are so talented. This is a bit surprising to the emperor, but overall he is overjoyed. No father does not hope that his son will excel. But you have been in Ningde before, and he
He knows very little about you. Your position as editor of the Hanlin Academy was given to you at random by him, but this position was definitely carefully considered. Firstly, he wanted to see your ability, and secondly, he wanted to see your character. If you
If you are qualified for this position and are not arrogant or impetuous, you will be even more popular with him." Chu Yuanzhou said seriously.
Chu Yi let out a long sigh and said, "As you said, I'm afraid I'm going to be on the edge of a knife for the rest of my life."
"What are you afraid of? The soldiers will stop you, and the water will flood you." Chu Yuanzhou said disapprovingly: "It is better than being forgotten until you die in Ningde."
Chu Yi glanced at him and said slowly: "Yuan Zhou, sometimes I think that maybe when I get what I want one day, I will look back and think, maybe what I want now may not be me."
What I really want, what I have lost, may be the greatest happiness in my life."
