When Xiaozhanzi saw Xu Tianze like this, he looked a little dazed. Xu Tianze, who was leaning against the osmanthus tree, asked him for something with a smile.
It was just like an ordinary fight, not an order but a request, as if if he said he didn't give it, Xu Tianze would just retract his hand and would not punish him at all.
But this feeling, Xiaozhanzi, came and went quickly. He shuddered violently, and then obediently placed the jade pendant that the prince had stuffed into his hand in the prison in Xu Tianze's hand.
Xu Tianze brought the jade pendant in front of his eyes and carefully observed the texture of the jade pendant facing the sun. The pattern of the Clivia inside the jade pendant was lifelike, as if it was about to emerge victoriously from the jade pendant.
"You also serve the royal family, so you should know what this jade pendant represents, right?" Xu Tianze played with the jade pendant in his hand and looked at the small cup.
When he was in the Heavenly Prison, he noticed the little tricks of the prince and Xiaozhanzi, but thinking about the situation at that time, it was not easy to expose them directly, so he pretended not to know and just kept a watchful eye on them.
Now that the prince has left, there are only him and Xiaozhanzi in the Xu Mansion, so naturally there is nothing to worry about.
"My lord, this jade pendant was left to me by His Highness so that I can take care of things for you in the future. It has no other meaning." Xiaozhanzi wanted to kneel down and apologize, but when he thought of what Xu Tianze said at the entrance of the secret passage, he held back.
Xiaozhanzi's little movements did not escape Xu Tianze's eyes, but Xu Tianze did not think there was anything wrong with it. Instead, he appreciated Xiaozhanzi a little more.
After all, a person's actions that have remained the same day for more than ten years have long formed their own conditioned reflexes, but Xiaozhanzi actually held back because of what he just said.
Such people are incomparable to ordinary people in terms of details and perseverance.
"Xiaozhanzi, at the beginning I just regarded you as a male concubine sent to me by the prince. Even though you have demonstrated your due value, I still think this way, do you understand?" Xu Tianze looked at Xiaozhanzi, not missing a single expression on Xiaozhanzi's face.
"Xiaozhanzi understands that no matter what the master wants me to do, Xiaozhanzi will obey the master's orders." Xiaozhanzi felt infinite humiliation in his heart, but still acted as if his obedience was harmless.
He has been working very hard because he doesn't want to be just a plaything that relies on his beauty and charm to gain control of others. If women are unwilling to sell their smiles, how can men really bow down to them?
But the big shots would not care about the thoughts of an ant like him. This was the case with the prince at the beginning. No matter how much he trusted the prince, the prince never gave up the idea of sending him away as a male concubine.
Now that he has come to Xu Tianze, he has met a different master. Perhaps he can really rely on his own strength to show his due value.
He didn't expect that all his performances would be defeated in an instant by Xu Tianze. Just one sentence made all his efforts go to waste.
"But now I have changed my mind. You do have refreshing abilities. If you are truly loyal to me, I will delegate power to you." Xu Tianze leaned lazily against the osmanthus tree, admiring the beautiful boy in front of him.
As for the humiliated expression on Xiaozhanzi's face, Xu Tianze simply ignored it. He thought that he was telling the truth, so he didn't care about this matter.
Sometimes, the truth is hard to accept, but being honest with each other will always make the relationship between each other closer, of course, except for those who are narrow-minded.
"Yes, what?" Xiaozhanzi responded subconsciously, but when he realized what Xu Tianze had just said, his mind went blank.
"What? You don't want to? You just want to be a male concubine?" Xu Tianze saw Xiaozhanzi in a daze, raised his eyebrows, and suddenly felt a sense of evil and asked.
"If I become your male concubine, I will have to spend every night in bed and feel drowsy during the day." Xu Tianze looked regretful, but there was a smile between his eyebrows.
"No, master, listen to me, I think I can still demonstrate my value." Xiaozhanzi became a little anxious when he saw that Xu Tianze was going to directly label him as a male concubine.
He was just a beat slow to react, but he could still distinguish between making his own decisions and making decisions for others. He didn't want to give up such a good opportunity.
Live with dignity in the future, and a bright future lies here.
Seeing that Xiaozhanzi was trying to decide whether to cry or not, Xu Tianze coughed several times to hide his almost uncontrollable laughter, then turned around and looked at the osmanthus tree, feeling a little relieved.
"I've come to see you. You see, I also have someone who truly loves me and is willing to follow me loyally."
When Xiaozhanzi left with Xu Tianze, he didn't hear any more promises from Xu Tianze, which made him feel a little disappointed.
But thinking of his own identity, Xiaozhanzi did not delay things even if he was depressed. He quickly took care of Xu Tianze, and then left Shangjing City quietly as soon as the city gate opened.
"Aunt, are you really not going to see Brother Tianze?" Prince Chang accompanied Long Qingyi. They stood on the city wall and watched the carriage moving away.
"If we meet, what will we say?" Long Qingyi asked back.
They had already chosen different paths. For the sake of her extremely calculating royal brother and the future of the Dagan Dynasty, she had no choice but to continue on her path.
It was destined that she would come into conflict with Xu Tianze sooner or later. In this situation, their meeting would only add to each other's troubles.
Prince Chang looked a little anxious, but when he heard Long Qingyi's words, he opened his mouth several times but didn't know what to say. In the end, he could only look dejectedly at the carriage going away.
"You and I may both die. Everyone in the royal family is paving the way for him. Perhaps we are unwilling to do so, but for the sake of a bright future, Li'er, Auntie hopes you understand what you should do."
Long Qingyi glanced at her youngest nephew and could only whisper a few words of comfort.
Afterwards, Long Qingyi was the first to go down the city wall. She had to return to the palace and continue to be a licentious empress, so she naturally could not stay here.
When Prince Chang saw Long Qingyi leaving, he looked into the distance where there was no carriage anymore. In the end, he could only curse in his heart a few words of treason, then he got down from the city wall with an annoyed look and chased after Long Qingyi.
After Prince Chang and Long Qingyi completely disappeared, two young men walked out from the corner of the city wall, stared at the direction where Prince Chang had just been looking for a long time, then turned around silently and walked down the city wall and left.
At the very end, in an unnoticed corner, Monkie quietly watched the city wall where all the people had just appeared. Only when no special figures appeared on the wall anymore did Monkie quietly leave.
