The Crybaby Prince is Reborn, Where is the Prince Going?

This seemed to be the third time he cried since entering the Regent's Palace.

Daddy said he didn't like seeing him cry, as it was a sign of being spineless, so he never cried.

Only when it was late at night and everyone was asleep would he cry secretly when he missed home.

But this time is different.

His concept of "home" became increasingly vague, and the gentle figure of the woman in his mind became increasingly blurred, as if all this was a dream, as if he had never had a mother, and was just the prince in this palace.

But he still remembered one thing: the woman in his memory gently caressed his eyebrows and called him softly...

"Sir, the prince invites you."

The good sad atmosphere was interrupted.

He Jinyou lowered his head and wiped away his tears with his sleeves, but his eyes were still red.

He didn't dare turn around and look at Si Tong. He knew that if Si Tong saw him crying, he would definitely tell He Qianzhao.

He just replied dully: "I know, I'll be right there, you go back first."

"You cried?"

"I didn't cry." Jinyou turned around and glared at him angrily, his doe eyes still red from crying.

Unfortunately, Si Tong only laughed at him: "Wow, you really cried? I'm going to tell the prince!"

"How can you be so childish and still complain!"

"Hmph!" Si Tong turned away proudly. "I won't complain. Fine, give me your banned book in exchange! I saw Wen Yan and the others go to that bookstore."

"Okay, I'll give it all to you. Don't tell me I'm crying."

"Okay, okay, my dear little prince, please get up quickly. Do you need me to massage your shoulders and legs and then carry you to the study?" Si Tong rubbed his hands like a fly in a servile manner.

"yue~get out!"

"Okay!" Seeing that He Jinyou was really angry with him, Si Tong ran away.

"How disgusting!" Jinyou said, and kowtowed to the blank tablet several times. "You'er, aren't you talking about Grandfather? You'er is leaving first. I will definitely bring some fruit to see you next time!"

There was only a blank tablet in the ancestral hall. In fact, Jinyou didn't know the name of this "grandfather". After several years, he still didn't know much about this capital city, this palace, and He Qianzhao.

It was as if he shouldn't have existed in this place.

He Qianzhao was the bright moon high in the sky, while he was just a beggar who almost froze to death in the snow.

But he finally embraced the mysterious moon, and he was no longer a beggar...

Fate, like a tangled thread of cause and effect, is inextricable.

He was lost in thought like this, and the maids and servants who passed by saluted him. He had a blank expression on his face, as if he had become He Qianzhao No. 2 again.

Standing outside the study were Azhou, who was usually elusive, and the two sisters Aque.

The three of them were like door gods, only Xiao Que'er secretly made a face at Jinyou and was slapped by A Que.

Jinyou stopped outside the door and bowed, "Dad, Jinyou wants to see you."

"Come in." The man's voice was still indifferent, perhaps he was just one step away from going crazy.

Jinyou sighed inwardly, it was really not as good as Xiao Yunzhen's words, "It's better to die!"

In fact, he had a vague suspicion in his mind that the boy would become a gloomy person.

He must have been tortured by this damn place!

He collected his thoughts and stood in front of the desk, but he didn't expect that Ji Zhonghuan was also there.

How could two people who are so incompatible with each other talk calmly in a study?

The sun rises from the west? The sun and the moon shine together.

Then he bowed to Ji Zhonghuan as a junior: "Master Ji."

Ji Zhonghuan leaned slightly and returned the greeting: "Prince."

"You'er, do you know that you were wrong about what happened today?"

"Yes, I know I was wrong. But Daddy, I don't understand..." Jin You tilted his head and glanced at Ji Zhonghuan. He was not sure if he could say these words in front of Ji Zhonghuan, but it seemed that he had no intention of leaving.

"Just say it."

With He Qianzhao's words, Jinyou felt relieved: "Yes."

"You'er didn't understand the whole situation today. He just thought it was a conspiracy between the Queen and the Imperial Concubine. It took a lot of effort for Daddy to support the Imperial Concubine. You'er doesn't want to see the Imperial Concubine suffer."

"There's nothing wrong with your thinking, but we can't just look at one side of the story. This may seem like a simple plot, but what if Concubine Xi was the Queen's lover from the very beginning?"

Jinyou's brain froze for a moment, and he cupped his hands, "Daddy, please clear up my confusion."

He Qianzhao looked up at Ji Zhonghuan and when he saw him nod, he said, "You are eight years old now, so I should explain these things to you clearly."

"It seems I'm in control of the situation right now, but the Emperor's power is also rising in secret. He's tried to get rid of me from the harem more than once, but his schemes are not very clever, and they tend to kill one thousand enemies but lose eight hundred of his own."

But I have to say that if Emperor Xuan succeeded, even if no harm would be done, it would still disgust people.

"Just like this situation, the Imperial Concubine actually did nothing, and the Empress did nothing either. The incense was given by the Emperor, and it was Concubine Xi who burned it herself, and the letter was also written by Concubine Xi herself.

If the Queen could lure the Imperial Concubine away to destroy her innocence, she would be doomed, but it is impossible for the Imperial Concubine to go to the tiger mountain knowing that there is a tiger there.

Xipin and Lin Yue were childhood sweethearts, and it was Lin Yue who offered Xipin to Emperor Xuan for the sake of an official position."

"Since entering the palace, Concubine Xi has always stood behind the Empress. Every time she had an affair with Lin Yue, it was with the tacit approval of Emperor Xuan."

Everyone knew what was clear to Lin Yue, who was the only one who didn't know. He thought he had both power and beauty. That was why when Emperor Xuan tried to guide him, he turned against He Qianzhao out of fear.

"But the imperial concubine seems...not to know either?" He Zhiyi didn't look like she was acting.

He Qianzhao chuckled and didn't deny it. He Zhiyi really knew nothing. That idiot only knew how to seduce Emperor Xuan and become his empress. Unfortunately, although Emperor Xuan was lustful, he was not a fool.

"You'er, the affairs of this palace are too complicated. I didn't want to let you get involved too early, but time waits for no one. The situation changes in an instant. Only those who can see through everything can be considered the real master of the situation. I just don't want you to become a pawn in the future. So your father decided to let you follow Master Ji."

"Huh????" Jinyou's face was filled with so many questions that he couldn't hide them. He really didn't understand why. But everyone was saying that the two of them were sworn enemies?

Isn’t it said that Ji Zhonghuan, who got the top spot in the imperial examination without relying on his family, hates genius second-generation aristocrats like He Jinyou the most?

The two would argue whenever they met, but He Qianzhao would usually remain silent, while Ji Zhonghuan would become more and more angry and return home in frustration.

"That's what I said. Don't just look at one side of things. What if my relationship with Master Ji is just a casual affair?"

He Qianzhao wrote the last stroke of his pen, put it away, and let the letter dry. He stood up and patted Jinyou on the shoulder as he passed by.

"Some things can't be learned just by reading. Zhong Huan has a lot of cases on his hands. You can learn from him how to understand people's hearts. I may not be at home recently. If you go to the palace, remember to bring both sisters with you. You can decide for yourself if you come to the palace to see me. If I'm not at home, you can go with the Regent."

He Qianzhao left a word and called Azhou.

"Send the letter to the southern border."

The Southern Territory again... The old doctor said that the medicine is from the Southern Territory, and this letter will also be sent to the Southern Territory. What unspeakable secrets are there in the Southern Territory?

He wondered, maybe Lin Yue was the breakthrough point.

"Dad, if Lin Yue is being interrogated, can I go and watch?"

He Qianzhao hesitated for a moment, but he nodded. "He's in the dungeon. Someone will call you for interrogation later."

After saying that, He Qianzhao left. It seemed that he always had endless things to do and endless calculations.

Only Ji Zhonghuan was left in the study with a cold face, and Jinyou didn't know what to say.

Instead, Ji Zhonghuan suddenly spoke up: "The emperor didn't let me investigate the last incident. I guess He Qianzhao told you his guess. The third prince was confined for a few days, and the matter was dropped. For the time being, the emperor won't act rashly, but you still have to be careful."

This was the first time Jinyou heard the serious Ji Zhonghuan talk so much, except when he was scolding his father.

"You'er, save yourself the trouble."

"He Qianzhao has been away from home for a while now and he's worried about leaving you alone, so he handed you over to me. There aren't many people he can trust in the capital, but you must know that he won't harm you."

Jinyou was stunned. He really hadn't thought of this level.

It turns out that we can’t just look at the surface of things.

"But." Ji Zhonghuan changed the subject: "You also know where the Dali Temple is, so start following me on the cases tomorrow!"
