Chapter 226 Lu Chenyang is a wild man
Yan Xing thought of the guarded courtyard in the Prince's Mansion, and said, "It is precisely because I trust you that I come to ask you in person." Otherwise, he would have directly visited the Prince's Mansion at night.
The prince met his gaze, was silent for a moment, and said, "I promise you, Miss Lu is not with me, and I don't know the whereabouts of her sister!" After a pause, he said solemnly, "I swear by my mother."
Yan Xing still understood the prince, and seeing that the prince was so serious, he believed it.
The prince had great respect for the deceased queen, so what he said was obviously true.
Yan Xing breathed a sigh of relief. He said, "I believe the Crown Prince, but Chen Yang is very worried about his sister. The Crown Prince, please help me look for her. If there is no news, I'm afraid he won't have the heart to fight the Yilin Army."
The prince nodded and said, "I will do my best, both for the public and for my own benefit."
The prince thought for a moment and then said, "He said he wanted to redress your wrongdoing. Does he have any plans? Does he need my help?"
Although Yan Xing entered the capital quietly, everyone knew everything they needed to know. It was just that everyone pretended not to know. Yan Xing entered the capital with Lu Chenyang, and Lu Chenyang's move was clearly to support Yan Xing.
Now Emperor Qianyuan needs Lu Chenyang's help and does not dare to turn against him at this time.
This is Yan Xing's own business, but he doesn't seem to care.
Yan Xing smiled and said, "No need. He said it's not a good idea to involve the Crown Prince in this matter, and it's better for the Crown Prince to avoid suspicion." His expression became increasingly gentle. "He is a man of great plans and has his own agenda. We just need to wait."
His words clearly showed his complete trust in Lu Chenyang, especially the tenderness in his eyes when he mentioned Lu Chenyang. He was very familiar with this look.
That was the look he gave to his beloved, and for a moment, the prince felt extremely complicated.
How should he put it? What should he say? He seemed to be at a loss for words.
If Yan Xing was his sister, he might have given her some advice, telling her not to trust men too much. He was also a man, and he understood men's sweet talk best.
As an older brother, he has the responsibility and obligation to advise his innocent and ignorant sister who has been bewitched by a wild man outside.
But the problem is, Yan Xing is not like that! He is not a simple and ignorant little girl, he is Yan Xing, the Yan Xing who can protect him at such a young age, and deal with the Fourth Prince, the Fifth Prince, and Concubine Lan without losing the upper hand!
His cousin has been precocious since childhood, open-minded and smart, and has always been a decisive and strong person.
Such a person is always difficult to control, as he is used to controlling his own destiny.
But now he has complete faith in Lu Chenyang. Even when it comes to something as important as his own innocence, he completely relies on Lu Chenyang and believes that he will arrange everything for him.
Is this still his overbearing and domineering cousin? !
The prince felt bitter. He licked his lips and couldn't help saying, "Cheng Xiao, since ancient times, there have been many men..." This wasn't quite right. "Men don't always say..."
This is also not true.
For the first time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who was known for his literary talent, felt at a loss for words.
The prince finally said, "Anyway, just be aware of this and don't rely too much on others. As a man... a man must be independent and strong. Even as brothers... supporting each other is the only way to last."
Why did this sound so awkward? Was he trying to persuade his brother? He had always wanted a sister, so why did he feel like his wish had come true?
The prince's face was blank, and he himself felt uncomfortable with these words. It was as if he was advising his sister on the principles of marital relations.
God bless him, why would he do such a thing?
Yan Xing frowned. "What are you talking about?" He looked at the prince with dissatisfaction. "He's devoted to me, so of course I have to trust him. How can I doubt him without reason? His character is known to everyone in the world, and he has the best reputation in the whole of Dagan. He's not one of those people who seek fame and reputation. He has truly saved the people and done good things. He is a man of his words. Since he said it, I naturally believe him!"
The prince looked at him with complicated eyes, as if his own pampered sister had been deceived by the sweet words of a wild man outside.
He sighed deeply, feeling exhausted.
Yan Xing thought for a moment and asked, "Are you still upset with him for suspecting you about his sister? He didn't mean it." Yan Xing spoke up for Lu Chenyang as a matter of course, "He's just too concerned. A man like him must love his sister very much. He finally saw a clue, so he suspected you. You are the crown prince, but he still questioned you out of concern for his sister. Doesn't this just speak volumes about his character?"
At this time, the "sister" seemed to trust the wild man very much. She was devoted to him wholeheartedly and did not pay attention to the earnest advice of her brother.
For the first time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince felt a little aggrieved.
The prince quickly comforted him: "I know, I know, I don't mean to doubt him."
"Then you don't blame him?" Yan Xing asked, staring at him.
How could the prince dare to blame him? He shook his head repeatedly, "No." He got back to the point: "Lord Lu is indeed a man of great promise. Since he said so, then we just have to wait and see."
Yan Xing finally smiled, his expression of complete trust: "Well, since he said so, he will definitely make arrangements. Prince, you haven't had much contact with him, but if you knew him, you would know that he is a very reliable person. If he said so, he would definitely do it. He would not lie to me." He said firmly: "I believe him!"
The prince: "Haha."
It seemed that his 'sister' was beyond saving, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had a blank expression on his face.
The prince said, "Okay, it's getting late. You should go back quickly. I won't keep you for dinner."
He didn't want to see him now.
Yan Xing stood up: "Well, I really should go. I also need to talk to Chen Yang so that he won't worry." He sighed again: "Where on earth did Miss Lu go?"
Yan Xing said, and suddenly looked at the prince: "Since Miss Lu is not with you, why do you have her medicine on you?"
The prince remained calm and said, "After Lord Lu said that, I had someone investigate. It turns out that a few years ago, Eunuch Yuanbao was injured while away from home, and someone gave him this medicine. Seeing how effective it was, he secretly kept it."
After the prince said this, Yan Xing understood.
Normally, the medicines used by the princes were obtained from the Imperial Hospital, but that was normal. Everyone knew that the Second Prince was not favored by the Emperor. Even if the Imperial Hospital dared to give medicine, would the Second Prince dare to use it?
Therefore, the second prince never used medicine from the Imperial Hospital.
Eunuch Yuanbao is an old man left by the late queen. He has been taking care of the prince since he was a child. He protects the prince as if he were his own apple and leaves all the good things for him.
However, the prince had designed a feud between Emperor Qianyuan and Concubine Yun. In order to teach the prince a lesson, Emperor Qianyuan had Eunuch Yuanbao assassinated secretly.
Now that Yuanbao is dead, there is no way to find out where the medicine came from.
Yan Xing nodded, turned and left.
The prince looked at his back and frowned. Will Lu Chenyang... believe it?
When Yan Xing got the news, he immediately ran to the post station to find Lu Chenyang to claim credit.
After hearing this, Lu Chenyang's face darkened.
Yan Xing thought Lu Chenyang didn't believe the Crown Prince. He said, "The Crown Prince is telling the truth. He swore an oath on the late Queen's behalf. The Crown Prince has great respect for the late Queen. The late Queen is his Achilles' heel. He absolutely would not lie in the name of the late Queen."
The prince spoke with great confidence, even bringing up the late queen, so Yan Xing believed him.
Lu Chenyang asked: "What did he say?"
Yan Xing recalled the prince's words and repeated, "He said, 'Miss Lu is definitely not with him.'"
Lu Chenyang sneered. Of course Miss Lu was not with the prince, because the one with him was not Miss Lu!
The prince is playing word games with him!
