Chapter 481 Nanfeng Pavilion
In the past six years, Su Chenyu could be said to have never had a good night's sleep, and it was common for her to stay awake all night.
But she never thought that she would sleep for more than a month at a time. Perhaps because she knew Jiang Zhi was by her side, she felt very at ease and fell asleep peacefully.
"But why didn't you send me back to Haoyanfang directly, instead of bringing me to the capital?"
Jiang Zhi pursed his lips, not knowing how to explain his strange behavior.
In fact, he hesitated for a long time before bringing Su Chenyu back to the capital. If he sent Su Chenyu back to Haoyanfang, he might never see her again in this life.
Just thinking about this, Jiang Zhi felt his heart ache. He couldn't stand this, so he was selfish and brought Su Chenyu back to the capital.
He thought Su Chenyu would be very angry after waking up, but he didn't expect Su Chenyu to ask this question so calmly, as if she really just wanted an answer from him.
"I, I'm worried that the pirates will find you and you're not safe in Cloud City." Even Jiang Zhi himself didn't believe this lame and poor excuse.
Su Chenyu didn't say anything, and Jiang Zhi didn't know what her attitude was, so he continued to ask her carefully: "Do you want to?"
"That man saw my face when I was on the boat. If I don't catch him, he will definitely find me. According to our original inference, this person is very likely to be in the capital. Now that we have arrived in the capital, let's see if we can catch him." Su Chenyu replied, "Let's talk about it after we solve this matter."
"Okay." Jiang Zhi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Su Chenyu had no intention of taking him away immediately.
There was a knock on the door, Jiang Zhi said "Come in", and the person outside pushed the door open and came in.
"Your Highness, this is the freshly cooked bird's nest soup." Lianxiang asked.
Jiang Zhi took the bird's nest soup that Lianxiang brought and said, "You will stay by Miss Su's side and serve her for the time being."
"Yes." Lianxiang responded and left.
Jiang Zhi scooped a spoonful of bird's nest soup and brought it to Su Chenyu's mouth: "Eat something."
Su Chenyu obediently opened her mouth and drank the bird's nest soup. Jiang Zhi fed her while explaining: "Lianxiang is a trustworthy person. I feel more at ease if she stays by your side to serve you."
"Don't you trust anyone else in this mansion?" Su Chenyu asked after finishing drinking the bird's nest soup.
Jiang Zhi put the empty bowl aside: "Everyone in this mansion has their own thoughts, and I am too lazy to care about these things. Lianxiang is an orphan who sold her body to be buried. At the beginning, I felt sorry for her and let her work in the mansion. This girl is grateful and repays her kindness."
Jiang Zhi stopped there, and Su Chenyu understood what he meant. He was afraid that the people in this mansion were all sent in by other forces, and only Lianxiang was loyal to him.
"You just left Lianxiang with me, what about you?"
"Although the other people in the mansion have ulterior motives, all they can do is monitor us. We still need to do our best where we should."
"Aren't you a prince? Why are all the people in the palace like this?"
This time, Jiang Zhi did not avoid the question: "Your Majesty said that I am the prince of King Zhao. I had been fighting on the battlefield beside the old King Zhao. Later, I was involved in the dispute between Beirong and Dayu. The old King Zhao died tragically, and I was injured and sent back to the capital. When I woke up, I forgot everything because of my injury. Your Majesty still let me inherit the position of King Zhao."
When talking about this experience, Jiang Zhi did not reveal a trace of grief, as if he was just an outsider. Even he himself did not know why he was so indifferent when mentioning the old King Zhao?
"Did South Vietnam also participate in the Northern Rong affairs back then?"
Jiang Zhi nodded: "I heard that Nanyue helped Beirong, otherwise Beirong would not have won so many times when it attacked Xixia at the beginning. But Beirong is now just the northern border of Dayu, and everything is in the past. Of course, I just heard these things from others, after all, I have no memory of those things."
