Only love Zheyu

Chapter 7: Princess Ziyin

After that day, every time Mr. Gong came to the bookstore, he would always pester me.

Mr. Gong is innocent by nature, loves to joke, and soon became my first friend of Rong Ziyu.

Sometimes he would pat me on the shoulder, and then smiled maliciously at Yan Fei and said, "What? I'm touching your master! Catch me!"

Yan Fei frowned and remained silent, staring straight at Mr. Gong.

Mr. Gong grabbed my arm with one hand and said jokingly, "Oh! Ziyu, I'm going to stare at Brother Yan to death! Help!"

I watched Yan Fei's face getting redder with anger, and laughed out loud.

Until one day, Mr. Gong said he was going back to the capital, so he cried in front of me.

Mr. Gong asked me if I would go to Beijing to visit him when I was free, but when I remembered that the prince had said that I hope I would not be too far away from him, I shook my head and said to Mr. Gong, "I'm sorry, Xiao Gong, I promised to stay alone. Zhangyue City..."

"Woooooo!...Which person is so vile and imprisoned Zi Yu here?! Woohoo...I will ask my brother to arrest that person and imprison him when I get back!"

"Don't talk nonsense!" I stroked his head, "Well, I promise you, I will write to you, so don't cry, okay?"

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..."

"..."

"Stupid boy..." Before Yan Fei could answer, I embraced Mr. Gong in my arms. "Don't cry..."

Before leaving, Gongzi pointed at Yan Fei and yelled, "Don't let Zi Yu suffer!" and got into the carriage.

The day calmed down again.

During this time, I started selling poetry for a living.

I asked myself that my literary talent should not be very good, but probably because of the prince's face, my poems are always sold at a good price.

Time flies, October passed, at the end of winter, the little prince was born.

The little prince's hundred-day banquet, the prince invited me to attend as a guest of honor.

The hall is full of high-ranking officials, relatives and relatives of the emperor, including Yu Shangshu, who is now a celebrity beside the emperor, and Princess Ziyin, the number one beauty in our country, all came to congratulate him.

I looked at the man and woman following Princess Ziyin, and couldn't help but feel a little familiar.

"Young Master Rong." A voice suddenly sounded beside him.

I looked up, "Ah! General Cui?"

The general smiled faintly. He is wearing a dark blue cotton robe today, and the hands stretched out from the silvery white sleeves are no longer as rough as before. Although he has been on the battlefield for a long time, his skin is white and delicate now. I saw that elegant smile hanging on such a delicate face suddenly felt his face heat up, and couldn't help turning his face away.

"Master Rong?"

"Ah! Hmm... General Cui, long time no see! Are you here to congratulate the prince today?" Nonsense!

"...Well, yes. The prince finally gave birth to an heir, which is really gratifying."

"Um……"

There was an awkward silence.

"I heard that the lord has redeemed you, and you have changed your name to Rong Ziyu?"

Hearing him talk about my past as a male favorite, I couldn't help but answer timidly, "Yes..."

"Rong Ziyu... is really a good name, it suits you very well."

Seeing the general smile at me, my face only got hotter.

"Young Master Rong, are you not feeling well?" He looked at my face and asked sympathetically.

"Ah? Well... maybe, the weather is a bit abnormal these days..."

"I see. I still want to play chess with Mr. Rong tonight..."

"Huh?!"

"But you are unwell now, son, I'd better visit another day."

He put his hand on my shoulder, and Yan Fei stood beside me.

General Cui looked at me and Yan Fei.

Finally, a sneer appeared on the originally gentle face, and he said lightly, "Farewell."

Although I don't want to think about it, did I get misunderstood by the general just now? Yan Fei and I are innocent!

"Yan Fei! If anyone touches me in the future, don't you just stare at them viciously, okay?!"

After the Hundred Days Banquet, Yan Fei and I have already returned to Rong Mansion.

"But the prince said..."

"The lord said it! The lord said it! I'm afraid he won't remember what the lord said!" In a fit of anger, I rushed into the study and fell into the big chair.

At the Hundred Days Banquet just now, the prince almost treated me as if I didn't exist.

There was only a faint "you are here", and he never spoke to me again.

I wandered among the high-ranking officials, listening to people whispering, saying that I, a redeemed male favorite, dared to attend the hundred-day banquet of the little prince, so I didn't want to face him.

I listened, only to feel aggrieved.

Could it be, my lord, that you invited me because you wanted others to make fun of me and scold me?

Before the redemption, you were the prince who said you would keep me by your side. After the redemption, you never came to see me!

I hid my face in my hands, thinking that I could hold back my tears. I pressed my chest with one hand, hoping that the unreasonable pain in my heart would be stroked away by myself.

Why……

"master……"

"You get out!" I raised my voice, it was my rare anger.

Then I heard the door being closed.

I made sure I was the only one in the room, so I wept.

When I woke up the next day, I was lying on the soft bed in the study, and someone had covered me with a quilt.

"Master, are you awake?" Xiaozhen asked softly outside the door.

"Xiaozhen? Come in."

"My lord, there's a gentleman in the hall. He's been waiting since this morning!"

"This morning? How long did I sleep?"

"It's almost lunch time!"

I asked Xiao Zhen to sort it out for me in a hurry, and when I arrived at the lobby, "Zi Yu!"

"Little Palace!"

Mr. Gong ran into my arms. I looked at Yan Fei, he didn't do anything, he just looked at us carefully.

I can't help thinking of losing my temper with him last night, and I feel a little sorry.

"Xiaogong! You didn't tell me why you came here? Are you coming to Zhangyue City again?"

He took out the letterhead from his sleeve and handed it to me, "I told you, but the letter came late!"

We spent the day laughing and joking, and at dusk, there was one more person.

"My lord, General Cui is here."

"General Cui?!" Mr. Gong and I said in unison.

Seeing Lao Huang leading General Cui to the inner courtyard, I stood up and prepared to say hello.

Unexpectedly, General Cui took a look at Mr. Gong, and suddenly knelt down on one leg.

"At the end, I will see Princess Ziyin!"

I was so terrified that I couldn't react!

"Hmph! Dead General... don't you understand that I'm going on tour in a micro-service?! Shouting so loudly, I'm afraid no one will know who I am!"

"Zi...Princess Ziyin! Zi Yu sees Princess Ziyin!" As he said that, he was about to kneel down.

But the princess supported me with both hands, "Hey! Hey! Why are you kneeling, Ziyu? Don't learn from this bad general!"

"But the princess..."

Before I could finish a sentence, the princess suddenly wrapped her arms around my neck, "You are my favorite Zi Yu!"

"Your Highness, I'm afraid that men and women will not be able to kiss each other..." General Cui did not forget to mention.

"Idiot general, shut up!" The princess still held me with one hand, turned around and cursed at the general.

"Besides, the princess doesn't know, Young Master Rong is still the favorite of the Fourteenth Prince..." I felt the princess in front of me froze, "Although she has redeemed her body, she was once a favorite after all. Mr. Rong has a very close relationship, I'm afraid..."

"Excuse me...what is the so-called visit by General Cui today?" The more I heard him talk, the more painful I felt, so I had to change the subject.

"...I came here today to play chess with Mr. Rong."

"Alright...Xiaozhen, prepare the chessboard in the study."

Then I looked at the princess who was still clasping my neck with one hand, and wanted to push it away gently, "His Royal Highness..."

"I don't care!" Suddenly the princess yelled, "Zi Yu is Zi Yu! I don't care what kind of male favorite he used to be, he has redeemed himself now, he is the gentle and gentle Mr. Rong Ziyu!"

I was so moved that I really wanted to cry and thank you thousands of times.

"Young Master Rong, I'd better take Her Royal Highness back to the Prince's Mansion to rest today." The implication was that the chess game was cancelled.

Don't leave when the princess is making a lot of noise, I coaxed, "Your Highness, it's almost nighttime. Let's play again tomorrow."

"You will wait here for me tomorrow, you are not allowed to go anywhere!"

"Yeah! Ziyu takes orders."

"What do you want! Just say yes!"

After a lot of tossing and sending the two away, the house fell silent again.
