After the shadow guard was disheartened

Chapter 38

Chu Cang stood in the hall maintaining an upright posture, not daring to relax for a moment.The whole room was solemn and silent, and a needle could be heard. A sapphire incense burner placed in the hall spit out purple smoke, weaving a lavender curtain for the whole room.

The man on the dragon chair is heroic and majestic, he is his father, Emperor Chu Yan of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Chu Yan is over forty years old, and he still looks like someone in his thirties, and his every move is full of unfathomable superiority. Even if he is his own father, Chu Cang dare not say that he fully understands Chu Yan's intentions.

He stood for a stick of incense before Chu Yan raised his head from the mountain of memorials, and his kind smile dispelled the fierceness that seemed to be born with him: "Sit down."

Chu Cang breathed a sigh of relief, and sat on the chair given by the palace man.

"What do you gain from going back to Dasheng?"

Chu Cang turned his head slightly: "Shen Zhuoyu has lost his real power and cannot move freely. Chu Mingge controls Dasheng and intends to make friends with Dazhou."

"Chu Mingge..." Three short syllables flowed between Chu Yan's lips and teeth: "I haven't seen him for many years. I remember that when his mother committed a crime and I sent him away, he was still a child. I thought he would die in Dasheng, but I didn't expect..."

Unexpectedly, Chu Mingge not only survived, but also walked one step away from the throne.

Chu Cang didn't expect that he would suddenly go back to the past, looking down at his toes: "He is very different from when he was a child."

"The authority is falling, and Dasheng's officials are probably jumping in a hurry. So what about Chu Mingge's outstanding ability and character? After all, he is not from his own family, not from my race, and his heart must be different. Everyone understands this truth. At this time, he can It is indeed a smart man to abandon the past and invest in Da Zhou."

Chu Yan looked at Chu Cang: "How is Dasheng's prime minister?"

Chu Cang's heart moved slightly, thinking to himself: Sure enough, it's here.

He bowed his head respectfully, and carefully considered his words: "Master Murong is all well, I heard that his daughter will marry Chu Mingge soon."

Chu Yan smiled slowly: "Cousins ​​and sisters get married, it's more intimate."

Chu Cang felt that his smile was extremely strange, so he didn't speak to him immediately.

"Where is the person Chu Mingge sent?"

Chu Cang was startled, subconsciously stood up, and looked at Chu Yan in amazement.

Chu Yan had a panoramic view of his reaction, and sneered: "If you don't even know about this, I'd better make room for you as soon as possible."

Chu Cang muttered: "I, I dare not..."

Chu Yan interrupted him coldly: "Bring him, I want to intervene in person."

Chu Cang had no choice but to bite the bullet and said, "Yes, my son will go right away."

He paused for a while, and pleaded hesitantly: "I heard that my mother is suffering from a serious illness, and my son is worried. I want to visit him in person, and I hope my father will allow me."

Chu Yan's tone could not be refused: "No need, your mother is exhausted because of overthinking. She used to plan for the Phoenix position, and when she became a queen, she tried every means to make you the crown prince. I have agreed to her request time and time again. She is still not satisfied, and now she is probably looking forward to my death again."

"The queen mother...has no such idea."

"I have been husband and wife with her for more than ten years. I know who she is better than you. You are the future emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the lord of all peoples. You can't even let go of the mere love of mother and child. What big things can you accomplish?"

Chu Cang let out a cold snort of contempt: "If you continue to be so indecisive, I'm afraid you'll even be worse than that bitch's son."

He scolded Chu Cang blushingly and knelt down speechlessly. Chu Cang waved his hand and closed his eyes impatiently: "Get out."

Chu Cang's back was like a thorn, and a bitter taste filled his mouth.

"My son knows."

Chu Yan nodded lightly, indicating that he knew.

Chu Cang walked out of the palace step by step with great difficulty.

Everyone in the Great Zhou Palace knew that Chu Yan and the Empress were like strangers, and he was not welcomed even with him, so what about the Prince of the East Palace, he was not even as good as Chu Yan's favorite concubine.

In Chu Yan's eyes, Yuan Jieyu was a slut, and her son was a slut. As for him and his mother, they were a little better than them.

I don't know if this is consolation or irony.

Chu Yan is selfish and indifferent, he only has himself in his heart, and Murong Zhao, who has made a life and death pact with him, can be discarded at will, let alone others.

Chu Cang shook his head, tried his best to get rid of the haze covering his heart, and returned to the East Palace. Yunfei had already woken up, and stared out the window blankly with his knees folded, with a look of ecstasy.

Chu Cang called him twice, and Yun Fei suddenly turned around, the confusion on his face still not dispelled: "...Your Highness?"

Chu Cang sighed and reminded: "This is Da Zhou, the lonely East Palace."

The young man was shocked, and immediately lowered his head.

"You have been sleeping for three days, now you should wake up. Put on your clothes and go into the palace with Gu."

Yun Fei dressed like a puppet without a soul, and only then did he wake up when his feet touched the ground: "Entering the palace?"

Chu Cang nodded: "The emperor has something to ask you."

The dull brain struggled to turn around.The emperor, that is Chu Cang's father.Chu Cang brought back a male favorite from Dasheng, and as Chu Cang's father, it was reasonable to intervene.

He had just taken two steps when Chu Cang suddenly grabbed his wrist, and Yunfei shook his hand almost instinctively.

For a moment, both of them were stunned, the gentleness in Chu Cang's eyebrows and eyes no longer existed, and the light in his eyes was like lightning, which could almost stun people.

Yunfei's lips turned white, and Chu Cang looked closely at his eyes, as if trying to find a little bit of fear from his eyes.

"You're really not afraid of dying."

After a long time, after Chu Cang said this, he turned around and stepped out of the East Palace. Yun Fei had to follow closely. The north wind blowing in his face was bleak, and he stopped for some reason. Chu Cang also stopped for some reason, and looked back. he.

"Your Highness, I know I was wrong."

Before Chu Cang reprimanded him, he was the first to admit his fault with a very sincere attitude.

Chu Cang looked worried, as if he was weighing the apology in his words.

"There will be a next time, loneliness will never be forgiven."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and threw him a ruthless back. Yunfei hurriedly nodded in agreement, and followed him into the chariot.

Chu Cang closed his eyes for a rest along the way, but Yun Fei didn't dare to look directly at his face, his eyes fell on the void, and it was Chu Cang's indifferent voice that broke the silence: "After entering the palace later, you should understand what to say."

Yun Fei gave a soft "hmm": "This subordinate is dull, and I am worried that it will spoil His Highness's affairs."

"As long as you don't take such an arrogant attitude towards the father, the father will not do anything to you."

There was a bang in Yunfei's mind, and all the blood on her lips disappeared instantly, Chu Cang was expressionless, and she was not moved at all when she saw his appearance: "I am so temperamental and willing to take care of you, but my father will not let you ride on his head. "

"Also, don't have one subordinate at a time in the future, you are Chu Mingge's secret guard, you are not alone."

After Chu Cang finished speaking, he closed his eyes again and rested on the cushion. After a long time, he heard nothing. When he raised his eyelids, he saw Yun Fei kneeling at his feet, motionless.

Chu Cang didn't hit a single point of anger: "Are you angry with me?"

Yunfei shook her head, with a blank expression on her face: "This subordinate is guilty, please punish me, Your Highness."

Chu Cang laughed angrily: "Have you forgotten everything Gu told you just now?"

Yan Ba ​​fell back nonchalantly: "If you like to kneel, just kneel."

He clenched his fists tightly, and the circles of his eyes turned red involuntarily.

When he arrived at the place, Chu Cang got out of the carriage with a stern face, his steps were fast and windy, Yun Fei hurried to catch up with him, barely kept up with him, until he entered Da Zhou's palace, Chu Cang turned his head and reminded him solemnly : "Remember to be careful, if something goes wrong, I can't protect you."

That night, Chu Yan did not summon his concubines, and the palace was brightly lit, just like daytime, dispelling the darkness in every corner.Chu Yan was well-dressed and waiting for them.

As soon as the two entered, Chu Yan asked Chu Cang to stand up after saluting. His cold gaze passed him and landed on Yun Fei behind him.

Scratching across his face, Chu Yan withdrew his gaze and finally saw his appearance clearly.

Chu Yan cut to the chase, pointing at his secret every sentence: "What task did Chu Mingge entrust you with? Is it his life or my life?"

Yunfei's tongue seemed to be knotted, and his pupils dilated and shrank back. Every question Chu Yan uttered was murderous, and he could even feel an invisible dagger on his neck.

He is a good assassin, but verbal swords are not his forte.

Yun Fei forcibly calmed down, knelt on the ground, and slowly spit out the lines that had been in her heart countless times: "Before leaving, Your Highness wants this servant to serve the Crown Prince wholeheartedly, and this servant dare not disobey His Highness's will. As for what His Majesty said, this servant really doesn't know. "

Chu Cang didn't expect him to make trouble suddenly, so after thinking for a while, he took a step forward: "Father, don't be impatient. My son is also planning to interrogate this person. Since father also has this intention, why don't you help me?" ..."

"Shut up for me!"

Chu Yan directly shouted him back, and then turned to Shang Yunfei: "Aren't you willing to say yes?"

Chu Yan's voice was as strong as cold iron: "Shut me to the water prison."

Everything happened too hastily, Chu Cang turned pale, and watched Yunfei being dragged down by force, but there was nothing he could do.

The two heavy palace doors closed with a bang, and every word Chu Yan said, every word was like a poisonous snake, slipping into the gap in his heart.

"Anything can get into your eyes. You are a disgraceful waste. Go back to the palace and reflect on yourself. You don't have to come out these days!"

……

The big wedding is coming soon, Chu Mingge doesn't have much free time to do other things.

Occasionally, in the time that was finally leaked, a familiar face would flash back without warning. At first, he just felt bored, but then the outline of that face gradually became less clear, and he thought he had almost forgotten him.

He didn't intentionally let people pay attention to Yun Fei's news, how Chu Cang would treat a gift, he had no way of guessing, nor did he intend to speculate.

It's just that there are some things he can't pretend.

It's like a piece of my heart has been gouged out, it doesn't hurt, but it will overflow with bitter taste every sleepless night,

He couldn't figure out when that person carved himself into his heart.

Time flies like a white horse, and soon, it will be the wedding day.
