Chapter 621 Arrangement
Youlan said softly, "Your Highness, there is no need to force it. You can practice anywhere."

"Aunt, why are you trying to fool me with this!" Chu Zhiyuan said unhappily, "If it really is the same, let them all come back to practice, and don't go to the Great Bright Peak!"

Youlan said helplessly: "Since the emperor has forbidden us, we can't just barge in. If we really anger the emperor, we will be confined to our rooms."

"So what if you break in by force? Being under house arrest is a good opportunity for you to practice in seclusion." Chu Zhiyuan snorted.

Youlan said hurriedly: "It's different. Your Highness, you can retreat for a month, can you retreat for a year? Or even three years?"

"...Okay." Chu Zhiyuan's expression changed slightly.

House confinement for one or two months is okay, but house confinement for one or three years would be terrible.

Youlan said softly: "Those who survive a great disaster will surely have good fortune in the future. Your Highness knows that you need to practice now, and it is not too late."

"I have good aptitude. No matter how late I start practicing, I can catch up with them!" Chu Zhiyuan said proudly.

Youlan nodded with a smile: "Yes, Your Highness has excellent talent. As long as you work hard, you will catch up with the others soon."

Chu Liezhao has excellent aptitude, but he is restless and restless. He works for three days and rests for two days, and cannot calm down and practice hard.

In fact, she was afraid of suffering and difficulty, and she also knew that the Infinite Light Sutra was extremely difficult.

There are many such cases among the princes, but none of them is as serious as his.

More importantly, he also has some self-destructive tendencies, self-abandonment and self-exile.

Youlan sighed secretly when she thought of this. The root of everything was the early death of Concubine Yun.

She shook her head secretly.

Good people don't live long. Concubine Yun was so gentle and beautiful, but she died young. It was really God's fault.

Whenever she thought of Concubine Yun holding her hand and asking her to take good care of His Highness before her death, she felt guilty.

After all, I failed to live up to the Queen's trust. I failed to take good care of Your Highness and make him happy. Instead, he became depressed.

Chu Zhiyuan looked up at the sky.

The sky is clear and sunny.

The sun shines obliquely, shining with golden light.

He said, "Aunt, I'll go check on those two secret guards."

Youlan looked at him with relief.

After all, His Highness inherited the character of Concubine Yun, and has a kind nature.

I'm just protecting myself with a layer of irritable and aggressive protective shell.

-

Xiao Guangming Peak is a small hill located in the imperial city. It is a hundred meters high and covers an area of ​​about a hundred acres.

The whole mountain is covered with lush forests, and from a distance it looks green like smoke.

Once you step into the mountain, you’ll feel quiet and peaceful. Although you’re in a busy city, it feels like you’re deep in the mountains.

There is a cemetery halfway up the mountain.

Chu Zhiyuan was dressed in a purple robe, standing quietly in front of the two tombstones.

Youlan, dressed in a plain silk gown, stood aside, her whole body neat and tidy.

The two tombstones are adjacent to each other, with clusters of flowers and paper ashes still fresh.

Chu Zhiyuan stood motionless in front of the tombstone, looking at them as if he was looking at the owner of the tombstone.

He tried to recall in his mind, but he couldn't remember what these two people looked like.

Chu Liezhao usually didn't take these secret guards seriously at all.

In his eyes, the inner court secret guards were a group of people, not any one individual, so there was no need to know who they were specifically.

Anyway, they take turns on duty and are not responsible for any specific prince.

He never treated them as human beings, but only as tools.

So I didn't pay any attention to their appearance or names.

Thinking of this, he shook his head.

It was really not worth it for these two people to die for Chu Liezhao.

As orphans, they were screened through layers of screening and eventually became the inner court secret guards, having passed countless levels.

As a secret guard of the inner court, he practices top-notch martial arts, is trained with enormous resources, and is paid very well.

This is actually selling your life.

They can only blame their bad luck for having to deal with this jerk Chu Liezhao.

Guarding other princes wouldn't be so dangerous.

He could imagine how much the inner court secret guards disliked him now and they wished they could stay away from him.

The Chu Liezhao that he was reincarnated into was indeed a failure in life.

I always feel that I am the most miserable person in the world and blame everyone and everything.

He was irritable and easily angered, and would beat and scold people at will, and dared to do whatever he wanted, no matter who they were, even in front of the emperor. This was tantamount to cutting himself off from others.

In this vast world, the only people who truly treat him well are Youlan, Chuzhen, Chuqiao, and Concubine Hui.

Concubine Hui tolerated him in every way, most likely to repay the kindness of her biological mother, Concubine Yun.

It's impossible to say how deep my feelings for him are.

Anyone who meets someone like Chu Liezhao would have already become disheartened.

"Have they started a family?" Chu Zhiyuan asked slowly.

“They all have children.”

"You have a wife and children?"

"Zhou Juzhi's two children are now ten and six years old, respectively. Chen Haoming's two children are now twelve and eight years old."

"Bring their wives and children into the house," Chu Zhiyuan shook his head.

"Your Highness is wise!"

Youlan smiled immediately.

Secretly sighing.

It is said that after experiencing a life-and-death catastrophe, one will undergo a complete transformation.

Now it seems that after experiencing this catastrophe, His Highness suddenly became wise and sensible.

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head: "If their children want to study, they can go to Bailu Academy, and if they want to practice martial arts, they can go to Baiyun Sword Mansion."

"Yes!" Youlan nodded vigorously: "Their wives are doing odd jobs in the mansion."

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head: "Raise them, don't let them work, be a manager."

Youlan nodded: "Your Highness is still thoughtful."

Chu Zhiyuan turned and walked out, stepping on the white jade steps, his footsteps clearly audible.

The surroundings were extremely quiet, with only the chirping of birds and no other sounds.

Not long after walking, I ran into four young men in tight clothes.

When they saw Chu Zhiyuan, they were stunned for a moment, then clasped their fists in salute.

Chu Zhiyuan nodded, but kept walking.

Youlan looked solemn and did not look around, walking slowly, as if she did not see them.

After Chu Zhiyuan and the others went far away, his figure disappeared.

The four of them began to whisper.

"The Ninth Prince is here, how strange!"

"He still has some conscience."

"It is said that this prince is a ruthless person who does not know what gratitude is. It seems that this is not true."

"Maybe he was forced to come here, just for show."

"Alas... this is our fate. He came to see us. No matter how he came, it was a favor. Old Zhou and Old Chen finally did not die in vain."

The four of them nodded silently and continued forward until they came to the tombstones of the two men.

-

Chu Zhiyuan paced in the city with his hands behind his back, and said to Youlan: "I want to see what they brought back."

Youlan asked: "Your Highness, are you looking for clues about your enemy?"

Chu Zhiyuan nodded: "And the two traitors in the mansion, have the yard been searched?"

"The two secret guards Zhou and Chen brought back a piece of torn sleeve, which has been taken away by the Supervisory Department... The two courtyards in the mansion have not been touched."

Chu Zhiyuan said coldly: "Return the sleeve. I want to see it."

"Your Highness, the ability to track and investigate is still better in the Supervisory Department, there are many extraordinary people in it."

"Then I want to take a look too."

"...Yes." Youlan agreed reluctantly.

Although His Highness has changed a lot, his temper has not changed much.

Chu Zhiyuan quickened his pace, not paying much attention to the noisy crowd around him, as if he was oblivious to it.

He was actually observing in secret.

Almost all the pedestrians on the street are practicing cultivation, and their aura may be strong or weak.

Almost everyone wore a weapon around their waist, even the girls in the boudoir wore swords and knives.

This is a world where everyone practices cultivation.
