This villain is really like the hero

Chapter 104

Rong Chen looked at the person indifferently, without any emotion in his voice, "Why are you here?"

Seeing the alienation and guard in Rong Chen's eyes, as well as the involuntarily closed fingers, obviously not welcoming him, the expression on the prince's face didn't change a bit, "I'll come and see you."

"Rong Chen has never had any friendship with His Highness, and this Leng Palace is not a place for His Highness to come. Your Highness, please go back."

The meaning of chasing guests is already very obvious.

A person with a keen mind like the prince can naturally sense Rong Chen's hostility towards him.

He didn't care about Rong Chen's indifference, and continued to say in a peaceful tone: "Gu and you are brothers."

Rong Chen didn't say a word, but the sarcasm on his lips because of this sentence made the prince see it clearly.

A stranger-than-stranger... brother?

The prince probably guessed what Rong Chen was thinking, and was silent for a moment.

I also know that there is no brotherhood between them at all, and what they say on the scene is too false, so I didn't continue the topic just now.

"Gu is here to thank you today." The prince expressed his intentions simply. He pushed his hands forward, overlapping his palms, and bowed slightly towards Rong Chen, "You invite yourself to go out and solve the most urgent problem for Gu. Gu is very grateful to you for the things that make Gu distressed."

Many ministers in the court proposed to let the children of the royal family go to the battlefield, and it was clearly aimed at him.

Although he is not afraid of life and death, and has a talent that the Taifu can't help but praise, he has no idea how to lead troops to fight.

The prince knew very well that if he went to the battlefield, he wouldn't be able to help anything. On the contrary, because of his status, he would cause the soldiers to worry a lot, and distract too much attention from protecting his safety—generally speaking, he was the one who dragged his feet.

Whether he goes to the battlefield or not is not a good decision, just when he was most distressed, Rong Chen stood up...

"I'm not helping you, but I want to leave the cold palace." Rong Chen avoided the prince's gift without any hesitation, he had no intention of shaking hands with the prince.

——Because they are rivals, both contenders for the throne.

"But you helped Gu, that's a fact." The prince looked at Rong Chen calmly, "You can ask Gu for anything you need, and Gu will satisfy you."

Is the prince trying to show in front of him that he has a heart of benevolence and kindness?

Rong Chen looked at the man in front of him with a bit of sarcasm who was well-mannered, extravagant, and possessed an air of nobility that was incompatible with this dilapidated cold palace.

"I don't need your thanks, let alone your things. I'm only helping myself." Rong Chen's answer was firm. Those gloomy eyes contained absolute confidence in his own strength, as well as his love for the prince. Hostility, "If I want anything, I can get it with my own ability, so why bother begging for mercy with you!"

The prince stood up straight again, looking at the boy in front of him who was shorter and thinner than himself, his eyes flashed with surprise.

He has always known that his younger brother is not simple, but he has never had direct contact with him before, and he can roughly piece together his impression of this person from the few words reported by his subordinates. He thought he knew Rong Chen well.

But now he feels that he still knows too little...

"You want to compete with Gu for the throne?" The prince had already guessed what Rong Chen was thinking.

If it was someone else, they would only avoid this question at this time, but Rong Chen seemed to declare war on the prince, and his tone was sonorous: "Yes."
