Chapter 456: Pulled Away
For a moment, Xie Jingyu didn't know whether his second brother was unlucky or had a strong life.
My father used my mother to lure my cousin out and persuaded him to return to Dongliang, which almost killed my second brother.
His cousin thought he was looking for his second brother, so after leaving Beijing, he sent someone to tell him that his second brother was in Meiyuan in the south of the city. If it had been two days later, he would have really collected his second brother's body.
Zhao Yunkuo gave Xie Jingze some medicine. The rest depended on whether his high fever would recur. It was inconvenient for him to stay here, so he said goodbye and would look for him again if needed.
Zhao Yunkuo was about to leave when Chen Guo came in and said, "My Lord, the prince is here."
Xie Jingyu glanced at Xie Jingze and said, "Father is here to take you back to the palace. I will leave first."
Xie Jingze wanted to speak, but suddenly started coughing.
Xie Jingyu and Zhao Yunkuo left together.
When he reached the gate of the courtyard, the prince came in. Xie Jingyu bowed to the prince and left.
Zhao Yunkuo, “…”
I always feel like something is wrong, but I can't put my finger on it.
The concern of Prince Jingbei for his half-brother does not seem fake, but it is also true that Prince Jingbei found evidence and wiped out the Wen family, almost killing the entire family.
Second Young Master Xie is the biological son of Concubine Wen and the grandson of the Wen family. He found Second Young Master Xie and told Prince Jingbei to take Second Young Master Xie back to the palace. Isn't he worried at all that Second Young Master Xie will repay his kindness with enmity?
If he were to ask himself honestly, he would definitely not have such a broad mind. No wonder the Prince of Yuzhang and others followed the lead of the Prince of Jingbei.
Xie Jingze leaned on the big pillow. He had never been so frightened before. He wanted to escape, but he was so weak that he even had difficulty getting out of bed and fell directly to the ground.
The prince strode over and helped him up. "How did you get hurt so badly? You've been living outside and suffering for so many years. Father will take you back home."
Although he is not his biological son, he is adopted and is his son.
Xie Jingze's nose felt sore and tears welled up in his eyes.
Can he still go back to Jingbei Palace?
Xie Jingze shook his head, "I'm not going back..."
If it weren't for the man who suddenly appeared, he would have already walked as far away from Kyoto as possible.
The prince knew the reason why he was unwilling to go back. "If you don't investigate the Wen family, Yu'er will. Even if you brothers don't do this, the Wen family has committed so many crimes, and sooner or later they will be exposed."
"It wasn't you and Yu'er who sent the entire Wen family to the guillotine, it was the Wen family themselves."
On the way back to Beijing, he casually rescued the third young master of the Yun family who was being assassinated. It can be seen that after so many years of wandering outside, he still has a kind heart.
The prince really wanted to know how the Wen family bullied him, which made him extremely angry. He wanted to find evidence and send the entire Wen family to the guillotine.
But this is Xie Jingze's scar. If Xie Jingze doesn't tell you himself, the prince won't ask.
No matter how the prince persuaded him, Xie Jingze was unwilling to go back. He had lived well alone these years and he didn't want to go back.
But the prince came to pick him up late at night, so how could Xie Jingze just not go back? If he wanted to live a good life, how could he be injured like this?
Xie Jingze refused twice, so the prince took a tough approach. Two secret guards lifted up Xie Jingze, who was so weak that he was almost dying.
…
Besides, Xie Jingyu and Zhao Yunkuo left the courtyard in the south of the city. Zhao Yunkuo was going to have a drink with Prince Yong and others, while Xie Jingyu was returning home and happened to pass by Deyue Tower.
The two of them went to Deyue Tower together.
On the second floor, Prince Yong, Young Master Ling, and Prince Weiguo were standing by the window. Seeing Xie Jingyu, they said, "Brother Jingyu, come and have a drink together."
Xie Jingyu declined politely, "I'm in a hurry to go back and be with my wife. I'll see you next time."
After saying hello, Xie Jingyu left.
Prince Yong was melancholy. "The Lantern Festival used to be so lively, with brothers drinking together. Now, everyone is either accompanying their wives or accompanying wives who haven't married yet. Only a few of us are left who are neither married nor engaged."
Xie Jingyu wants to go back home to accompany Shen Wan.
Chu Yang accompanied Shen Ling to visit the lantern festival. Although he preferred to drink with his brothers, Shen Ling was pregnant and there were many people coming and going at the lantern festival. If he dared not to accompany her, his parents would break his legs.
Zhao Ang was not there either because he was accompanying Ling Xue in guessing riddles.
With fewer people, drinking is not fun. Besides, seeing the brothers in pairs, I feel a little envious.
Prince Yong was eager to make a move. He patted Prince Weiguo's shoulder and said, "Why don't we go for a walk on the street? We can drink anytime. Lantern Festivals don't happen often, after all. Maybe we can run into someone we like..."
The Prince of Weiguo thought of the girl he saw on the street that day and felt that drinking was boring.
Several people left the private room together.
When Zhao Yunkuo was halfway up the stairs, he was taken out of Deyue Tower by the Prince of Yongwang, holding his arm in his arm.
Zhao Yunkuo, “…”
A few people wandered aimlessly on the street, and then found that it was not as interesting as drinking in Deyue Tower.
I was about to find a place to continue drinking, so I walked across the bridge and ran into a masked man and woman.
The two were talking, but stopped abruptly when they saw them.
One of the men turned and was about to leave.
But it was too late.
"The Prince——"
It would have been fine if he hadn't shouted, but Prince Yong shouted and the man ran even faster.
But after being recognized, how could he run away? It would be too unkind to turn around and run away after being caught while he was with the girl under the moonlight.
The Prince of Yong jumped up and blocked the way of the Prince of Yuzhang.
Prince Yong asked, "Why are you running?"
The Prince of Yong had a look of disappointment on his face. The Prince of Weiguo had always disliked him. He was visiting the lantern festival with the Fourth Miss Wei and was caught. He was afraid of being beaten, so he left the Fourth Miss Wei and ran away. How irresponsible of him.
The Prince of Yuzhang dodged and was about to leave by the Prince of Yong.
The Prince of Yong reached out and grabbed his shoulder, preventing the Prince of Yuzhang from leaving.
The two men started fighting.
Young Master Ling also went over to join in the fun. He stretched out his hand and took off the mask of Prince Yuzhang.
Seeing the face of Prince Yuzhang——
Prince Yong, "..."
Young Master Ling, "..."
There was a very clear slap mark on Prince Yuzhang’s face.
Even though it was a little dark by the river, you could still see that his lip was bitten.
No wonder they turned and ran away when they saw them.
If they were so impulsive, they would definitely take off his mask.
Young Master Ling, holding the mask in his hand, "..."
Young Master Ling quickly threw the mask to Prince Yuzhang, then turned to the Prince of Weiguo and said, "Brother Wei, you got the wrong person."
He actually concealed it for Prince Yuzhang.
The Prince of Weiguo frowned, but did not expose the truth.
His eyes fell on his sister. What was wrong with his sister? Yesterday she was complaining about Prince Yuzhang's flirting with other women, but why was she visiting the lantern festival with Prince Yuzhang today?
There was also the Prince of Yuzhang, who was discovered and left his sister behind and walked away. His sister followed him without any backbone. The Duke of Weiguo's Mansion was completely embarrassed.
"Come back home with me."
The Prince of Weiguo grabbed her hand and dragged her away without saying a word.
Prince Yuzhang turned around and saw this scene. He wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by Prince Yong. "Brother Wei let you go, but you still chased after him? Aren't you looking for a fight?"
"Even if I'm going to get beaten, I have to go."
Prince Yong asked, "Do you enjoy being beaten so much?"
"He dragged my cousin away."
Prince Yong, "..."
Young Master Ling, "..."
Zhao Yunkuo, “…”
The corners of Prince Yong's mouth twitched twice, and his voice drifted, "That girl just now is your cousin?"
"What's wrong with the prince of Weiguo? He's wearing a mask. Doesn't his own sister recognize him?"
He can recognize the Prince of Yuzhang at a glance, but can't recognize his own sister. Is he a biological brother?
Prince Yuzhang stood there watching, and when he thought of something, he smiled. Prince Yongwang said with a frown, "Why don't you go after them?"
"I won't chase you anymore."
"He took my cousin away. If he doesn't return her to my Prince Teng's Palace, I will break his legs."
After being beaten so many times by the Prince of Weiguo, he finally got to hold his head high thanks to his cousin.
His mother had made the right decision to bring his cousin to the capital because of him and Wei Mingzhu.
Isn’t this solved?
The cousin said that she would help him capture the Prince of Weiguo, and it would be the same if she was captured by the Prince of Weiguo.
Besides, the Prince of Weiguo dragged away Qin Nian'er, the cousin of the Prince of Yuzhang, as if she were his own sister. The Prince of Weiguo was very angry and said, "Go back and reflect on this to me, big brother. What is there to be happy about a man who is afraid of being beaten and leaves you and runs away?..."
There was no further joy.
Because the Prince of Weiguo saw his sister holding a lantern and coming towards him with her maid in the crowd.
The Prince of Weiguo thought he was seeing things.
The person in front is his sister, yes, but who is he pulling the strings to?
A bad premonition came over me.
Then I heard the girl say, "My cousin is not that bad, right?"
The Prince of Weiguo, "......!!!"
