Prison Dragon

No one knows exactly what Yang You is thinking, or if he is thinking nothing at all.

He didn't confide his mental journey to anyone, but just hugged Ao Chen and cried.

Ao Chen was by his side, not asking about his pain and struggle, the tight embrace represented everything.

Yang You put his chin on Ao Chen's shoulder, "You go, I'll ask someone to come in and take a bath."

Ao Chen drew circles on the back of his neck with his fingertips, and murmured: "I'll accompany you?"

Yang You said lightly, "Follow you."

Yang You's screams just now had alarmed many people, but no one dared to come in and disturb them.

They all knew that this was the only arrogance Yang You gave him, and he was able to release his suppressed emotions freely.

Yang You got up with his clothes on, his whole body was sore and weak, he was supported by Ao Chen to open the door, and Ruifang led the maids to guard the door.

"My lord..." The voices of the girls trembled and looked forward to.

Yang You saw pairs of eyes casting their hopes on him.

A bright smile suddenly appeared on his thin face, his dark eyes were covered by his broken hair, and only the corners of his lips were raised, "It's all right, call someone to come and wait for me to take a bath."

Ruifang could hear that his voice was hoarse, and he didn't take it seriously.

Yang You sat in the tub, dismissed the servant girl, and wiped his neck and chest with a towel.Ao Chen was very careful and did not leave excessive marks on his body, only some red marks could be seen in the places covered by the clothes.

Ao Chen was afraid that something would happen to him, so he stood by and watched Yang You take a bath, and Yang You cleaned himself up, always feeling a little uncomfortable under Ao Chen's sight.

His face blushed unknowingly.

Ao Chen coughed, turned his back and said: "Actually, you don't need to clean it so carefully. The human figure you see now is not my body, but the object of my soul. It is a state of spirit body. Everything will be turned into aura, dissipated or absorbed by people. It will not stay in your body."

"Yeah." Yang You's face turned even redder.

He wiped his body, and the sound of water was heard from time to time. Looking at Ao Chen's tall and straight back, he said, "What I said before counts."

Yang You slowly stood up from the tub, dried himself and sat on the bed.

Ao Chen took a dry towel, pulled up his wet hair and wiped it carefully, "I see."

Yang You couldn't tell what was going on in his heart, he just smiled lightly, "If I had known that today would come, I might as well have promised you earlier."

Ao Chen rubbed his temples, and Yang You leaned his body into his arms, "Without today, how could you promise me? Time and fate."

Yang You held Ao Chen's hand, put it on his chest, and pressed against his beating heart, "Tell me, what should I do?"

Ao Chen said calmly, "Yang You, think about it carefully. At the beginning, you said that you wanted to support the fourth prince and let him be the emperor, and then persuaded Yang Shi to let me go. Is that right?"

Yang You nodded, that was his original idea, so that he would not have to face a cruel fight to save himself, and at the same time save Ao Chen.

"But what did you do when Yang Shi returned to Beijing?" Ao Chen stroked his temples, "Not only did you not cooperate with him, but you were making false claims with him and making trouble secretly. Isn't it?"

Yang You subconsciously argued: "That's because he used me as a shield as soon as he entered Beijing, so I..."

"Hush!" Ao Chen pressed his lips, "Do you still want to argue? Even if you didn't intend to cooperate at the beginning, think about what you did later, have you ever half remembered your original intention of supporting the Fourth Prince? ? Have you introduced the people from Taichang Temple to him, and have you told him all the information you have learned?"

Yang You looked back at Ao Chen, with so much force that his neck was almost sprained, he finally knew what was different about him.

Ao Chen smiled and continued: "Do you understand?"

"You watch princes fighting each other, don't you enjoy the joy of watching tigers fight in secret? You watch everyone in Taichang Temple give advice to you, don't you enjoy the pleasure of dominating others? Admit it, Yang You, power makes people happy, Just the path to pursue it can be addictive."

If it was Yang You who originally had the heart of a saint, he would definitely refute Ao Chen out of the need to maintain his gentlemanly appearance.Such a wonderful dream was the only happiness he had in the deep palace.

Yes, he pretended not to care and escaped a few disasters, but what about the tragedies caused by his indifference and so-called cleanliness?

He never takes the initiative, does not take the initiative to fight, nor takes the initiative to save.

He knew it clearly in his heart, so he could only keep deceiving himself. Yang You was different from others. They were all ordinary people. Those laity are different, he is not wrong.

Yang You is an innocent person, the cleanest person in the palace.

Who can be fooled?

The dandy appearance he pretended to deceive everyone, and the saint in disguise deceived himself.

It's just that the layers of camouflage are gradually being torn off by the power.

In this struggle around the supreme power, he is no different from the people he despises, the same dirty, nothing more than the difference in means.

It is their inherent sin, and it follows them all their lives from the moment they regard their kinsmen as undying enemies.

But now Yang You can see clearly, seeing the sage himself under the disguise of the saint.

He has never been a lotus that emerges from the mud and remains unstained.

He is silt.

"Yang You," Ao Chen looked at him with a smile, "Admit it, in this game, you are a natural player. If you want to firmly occupy that position, you must have the heart of a king. Of course you can It’s not cruel, but you can still be tender. The only thing is that you have to admit your ambition and the price you are willing to pay for it.”

Who has no desire in life?

He finally saw the desire deep in his heart, even if it was a desire for power, so what?

"Don't resist it, because that's what you really want."

There was an earthquake in Yang You's heart, everything was overthrown and reshaped, he nodded, leaning his face on Ao Chen's chest, smelling his familiar scent, "Why do I think, you are better than Lu Shanjian?" Like a magic stick?"

Ao Chen embraced his shoulders, stretched out his hands to pull his ears, "This shows that the kung fu is not good enough."

Yang You suddenly laughed, "He is a monk, not a Taoist priest, and he is always arrogant."

Ao Chen snorted, touched his face and asked, "Is it alright now?"

Yang You lowered his eyelashes and thought for a while, then said, "It's not good, but it's not important anymore."

A greater purpose had emerged in his life.

Yes, he wants revenge.

He wants to live for those who have been in his life.

Now that he has fallen into darkness, let him use the law of darkness to reshape this world, and reshape a world that allows those people to live well.

If souls are reincarnated, please let those souls who loved him and he loves live in the new world created by Yang You.

However, it will take a long time, and now we have to take it step by step.

With Ao Chen's company, Yang You slept peacefully, without nightmares or blood.

It's a new day when you wake up.

With the help of Ao Chen, he got dressed, and Ao Chen analyzed with him while arranging his clothes: "There are about three things you have to do now, first, consolidate your existing power; The emperor's trust; third, to expand one's own power."

"You only have people from Taichang Temple and Lu Shanjian who can see it. You have done a good job of binding them with you. I don't need to teach you about this. Just one thing, you have to remember to keep them and you together." Evidence of your relationship, in case of accidents. If Li Chu has the support of the emperor, he can get twice the result with half the effort. Taking a step back, even if you can't gain the emperor's full trust, you must make him inseparable from you in the government. You must guarantee him It will not hinder your hands and feet in major matters. Although you have the support of Taichang Temple, it is not enough. You have no real power and no mother clan. You must have a strong force so that you can become a A pivotal bargaining chip.”

Yang You nodded, "I'll go to see the teacher first today. After finishing the housework, if there are no accidents, I will leave the capital."

Ao Chen said: "Let's discuss the matter of leaving the capital later, you should deal with the current matter first."

He stroked Yang You's arm and said, "Relax, with me here, they can't beat you. You don't have to be suspicious of someone, and you don't have to be suspicious of someone. You have to believe that you have a sense of proportion. Don't be afraid to make mistakes."

Yang You responded.

Ruifang was waiting for him in the front hall, serving him breakfast.

Seeing her hesitant to speak, Yang You felt a little uneasy, and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"My lord," Ruifang handed a small piece of paper to Yang You. Yang You took it over and read it. It was written on the address of a farmer's family in Yuyao, Jiangxi.

Yang You was puzzled.

Ruifang said: "This is the address of my hometown, my lord, I thought about it, I will definitely encounter something like Sister Zhanfang in the future, I will not make things difficult for my lord, my lord has my family's address..."

"No need." Yang You tore off the paper casually, took Ruifang's hand and said, "I believe you."

Ruifang's lips moved, she cried softly, choked up and kowtowed to Yang You, sobbing: "My lord, I..."

"It's okay." Yang You smiled and stroked her hair.

Ruifang wiped away her tears and said, "My lord, sister Zhanfang's belongings have been sorted out, and the Buddhist beads she mentioned have also been found. Is there anything else my lord wants to tell you? If not, our servants will take her away in private." buried."

Ruifang knows that Yang You still has old feelings for Zhan Fang, and she doesn't want Yang You to leave any regrets, so she decides to ask more questions.

The food in Yang You's mouth immediately lost its taste.

He thought for a while and said indifferently: "It's up to you."

Ruifang got up, ready to step down and deal with Zhanfang's affairs.

"Wait," Yang You suddenly stopped her, "Where are the Buddha beads?"

Ruifang held the Buddhist beads in her hand, and she actually carried them with her, "Sister Zhanfang has many valuables from her mother, and it took a long time to find the Buddhist beads. I think it may have other meanings to her."

Yang You couldn't remember which time he gave Zhan Fang the string of Buddhist beads, but looking at the patina, it was obvious that he had played with it for a long time.If it has special meaning, he has no reason not to remember it.

"The empress gave me a string of Buddhist beads before, and the few turquoises on it are very valuable. If your highness will show mercy to me after I die, you can use that string of Buddhist beads to set up a tomb for me."

Yang You stood up abruptly, pushed the table away, and grabbed the prayer beads.

One hundred and eight bodhi seeds are divided into three sections by three turquoises, each section has 36 pieces.

three……

"After all, the fifth brother is one of the two dragons, so I have to watch carefully to avoid accidents?"

Yang You held the Buddhist beads firmly.

As Ruifang said, Concubine Li gave Zhanfang countless things, and turquoise is not a precious gem. In the palace full of treasures, it can almost be regarded as something of little value.If she just wanted prayer beads, why did she specifically say "precious turquoise"?

"My lord?" Ruifang asked cautiously seeing Yang You's ferocious expression.

"It's okay." Yang You tried his best to control his expression, "It's okay."

"The Clothes Tomb?" Rui Fang looked at the Buddhist beads held tightly by Yang You.

Yang You lowered his head and wrapped the Buddhist beads around his wrist, taking this opportunity to adjust his expression, "You can use other things to set up a tomb for her."

Ruifang didn't dare to ask any more questions, so she had to step back and prepare the carriage for him.

"Long Jun." He called.

A man in black knelt in front of him, this was the secret guard Zhuo Xinhong had found for him.There are places in Jianghu that specialize in cultivating dark guards. The dark guards who come out are all drugged, and the antidote is in the hands of the master.

At first Yang You wanted to hand out all the antidote, but was stopped by Zhuo Xinhong.

He still remembered what Zhuo Xinhong said.

"One day, you'll need it."

At that time, he still laughed at Zhuo Xinhong for being suspicious.

Yang You said, "Yuyao, Jiangxi Province...a peasant family named Cheng has a daughter who works as a maid in the palace. Your task in the future is to monitor this family. You don't need to do anything superfluous. Report their news to me regularly. "

Long Jun disappeared without a sound.

Yang You looked at the Buddhist beads in his hand and smiled slightly.
