Oops, I've become the puppy apprentice of my stupid master.

Song Zhili replied honestly, "I am afraid. It is because of fear that I have been your little brother for so long without any regrets. I would never do that to anyone else."

He raised his hand and hooked the other person's shoulder, joking as usual: "Besides, I treat you as a friend, why be so reserved."

"certainly……"

Song Zhili suddenly let go of the other person, and without saying a word, he lifted up his robe and knelt down.

"If your highness the Crown Prince minds, I will begin to pay my respects to you now!"

"..."

Chu Jinning really couldn't stand the other person's behavior, he quickly stepped forward to support the man, pressed his lips and chuckled, "I didn't ask you to kneel, why are you kneeling, it's better for you to be normal in front of me."

"okay!"

When their eyes met, they suddenly started laughing.

The man in black standing next to them suddenly started to grin foolishly when he saw this.

Song Zhili looked at him in confusion and asked, "Why are you grinning like an idiot?"

Yu Qianlin raised his finger and nodded, "If my disciple is happy...happy, I...I will be happy."

Hearing this, someone's heart couldn't help but warm up. He raised his hand, touched the other person's head and said, "I'm never unhappy."

The implication is that you also need to be happy forever.

Song Zhili turned around and looked at Chu Jinning again.

"Your Highness, can you now tell us about the eldest prince's condition?"

The other party nodded and then began to tell the story.

The eldest prince was first enthroned when he was born to a maid shortly after the emperor ascended the throne.

The maid thought that she could win the emperor's favor by climbing onto the dragon bed, but she didn't expect that the emperor didn't even remember who she was.

Later, she died of illness shortly after giving birth to the eldest prince.

Before her death, she shamelessly begged the queen at the time to take in her son.

At that time, the queen had no children. Although she looked down on this maid, she adopted her into the palace when she thought that the child was innocent.

But even so, the eldest prince was still criticized and despised in the palace.

It was not until Chu Jinning's arrival that the other party's situation changed slightly.

Chu Jinning never disliked the other person's mother because of who she was. He only knew that his elder brother was a good person, and nothing else mattered.

When Chu Fengyi was less than sixteen years old, he was often sent by the emperor to fight in wars. No one knew whether he was lucky or had a strong fate, but he always came back alive after each battle.

But ever since he came back from being poisoned last time, his health has completely collapsed.

So far no imperial physician has been able to detoxify it.

This is also the reason why Chu Jinning suddenly went to Yuhua Mountain to become a trial disciple.

After all, with his current abilities, it is simply impossible for him to enter the Fantasy Beast Forest.

Song Zhili could tell that Chu Jinning cared very much about his elder brother.

It’s a pity that things don’t always go as planned.

"So why was the eldest prince charged with colluding with an enemy country?"

Chu Jinning shook his head. "My eldest brother is dying. Father didn't like him in the first place. Now he is bedridden and has lost the ability to help the country. So, Father will naturally let him make the greatest contribution to the country with the last bit of his life."

"What contribution? What does this have to do with his secret dealings with the enemy country?"

"It's a big deal. The brave and warlike eldest prince has now been convicted of treason. How can the people of the enemy country sit still after hearing such news? Father used this to capture those masters."

The young man lowered his eyelashes and sighed softly, "My eldest brother said that he still has a wish that has not been fulfilled, but he just doesn't want to tell me. I know that he did this just because he didn't want to implicate me."

"So all I can do is to extract the spiritual herbs so that he can live a few more days."

Ever since Chu Fengyi came back from being poisoned, the emperor has sent people to keep a close eye on his Royal Highness the Crown Prince's movements at all times, for they were afraid that he would rescue people out of the palace.

Oh, after all this time, he, as the younger brother, still doesn’t know that the other person has someone he likes.

Song Zhili figured out the situation, and then told the other party about the eldest prince and Su Xiner.

Chu Jinning was shocked for a long time after hearing this. He widened his eyes and said, "Big brother is usually a taciturn person. I didn't expect that he would have a beloved woman!"

Song Zhili was enlightened instantly, "It turns out that the eldest prince is still a taciturn person. No wonder he abandoned the girl and ran away when they had a disagreement. He doesn't feel uncomfortable keeping it in his heart."

"He is just that kind of person. He never tells anyone about his suffering. It was right for Big Brother to do this. Otherwise, that woman would have been implicated."

Chu Jinning looked in a certain direction, his eyes were blank for a moment, "He chose not to tell me about this because he was afraid that I would do something to displease my father in order to help him."

As they were talking, the little fellow hidden in the sleeve finally couldn't hold it in anymore and jumped out.

Song Zhili was worried that the other party would run out and hurt someone again, so he almost immediately grabbed the little figure, then pinched the other party's little head and stuffed it into his arms.

"Didn't I tell you to stay inside? Why did you suddenly come out? Are your paws itching again?"

Xiao Shuda first glanced at Chu Jinning in front of them, and then shouted unhappily: "Your sleeves are too stuffy, and I also want to see who this prince is!"

Last time in the Fantasy Beast Forest, it used Chu Jinning as bait to trick Song Zhili into jumping off a cliff, but in fact it had never seen what Chu Jinning looked like.

On the day they left, it was being held and played with by the boy named Qiao Sufeng. Even if someone was standing next to it, it had no chance to see it.

Song Zhili couldn't help but roll his eyes at it, then he held it in front of Chu Jinning and said speechlessly: "They say curiosity kills the cat, this is absolutely true, this is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, take a good look at it."

Chu Jinning's eyes were rather kind when he looked at Song Zhili, but they were rather sharp when he looked at other things.

Being stared at like that by the other party, little Shuda was instantly frightened and meowed.

"I won't watch it anymore. It's not good at all. This person is too fierce!"

Song Zhili held it in his arms again and gently stroked its hair with his hands.

Chu Jinning frowned and asked, "This cat can actually talk?"

Song Zhili nodded: "Yes, after all, it was raised in the Magical Beast Forest, so it's not surprising that it can talk."

"So you like cats."

“It’s mainly because it feels good.”

He said as he pushed the little Shuda in front of the other person, "Do you want to touch it too? It's so soft!"

Chu Jinning couldn't help but take a step back, the corners of his lips twitched slightly, and he said awkwardly: "I don't like cats, you should touch it yourself."
