"How did Minister Jiang offend the Ninth Prince? Why would you want to put him to death like this?"
"Why, he is a good friend of the Emperor's nephew?"
"My king, of course my king has nothing to do with him." King Hui was so anxious that he didn't even care about the seniority.
"My king?" Lu Zhenzhi stroked Fu Tong'er's peaceful sleeping face and said in a low voice, "It seems that my nephew and Jiang Cheng and..."
"I have nothing to do with him. Even if the Ninth Prince sends someone to investigate, I have never had any dealings with Minister Jiang."
Fu Tong'er was a little sleepy at first, but when she heard this, she couldn't help but feel a chill down her spine. It was said that the Regent Ninth Master should not be messed with, but now that she was lying in this man's arms, listening to bits and pieces of what had happened, she probably knew what this man had done for her.
However, she hadn't expected this man's hand to reach every corner of the imperial city! Isn't this the example of powerful officials manipulating politics in history? It's too, too terrifying.
Thinking of this, he moved his body slightly and murmured, "Jiu Ye, kiss me."
Lu Zhenzhi: “…”
King Hui frowned slightly. What did he just hear?
"The girl is talking in her sleep." Lu Zhenzhi said gently.
"My nephew, what is your intention in using a disguise to deceive your father?"
"younger generation……"
"My nephew, I know a thing or two about you. Be careful what you do and what you say."
"Ninth Uncle!" King Hui looked at Fu Tong'er sleeping peacefully in Lu Zhenzhi's arms and called out in a low voice.
"What else?" Lu Zhenzhi was already a little angry.
King Hui was unwilling to leave and went to sit on the stone couch in the cell. Just as he was about to lie down, Lu Zhenzhi said, "Nephew, don't force me to take action against you! Go outside!"
Fu Tong'er snorted and continued to lie on the man's chest with her eyes closed.
King Hui was mesmerized by her. When had this woman ever been so obedient?
So, she stood up, walked slowly towards Lu Zhenzhi, stretched out her hand, wanted to touch her hair, but put her hand down helplessly.
Seeing Fu Tong'er lying so quietly and lovingly on the Ninth Prince, he was extremely jealous.
"I do love her," King Hui murmured, "Give me another chance, and I will really treat her well, never hit her again, and never scold her again—"
Before she finished speaking, Fu Tong'er whispered in Lu Zhenzhi's arms: "Um... Master Jiu, it's so noisy..."
King Hui couldn't help but laugh, and his smile was bitter.
Just stood there for a long time.
Fu Tong'er pulled out a hand and pulled the edge of the cloak at her neck up to cover her head——
"She, she thinks I'm noisy? Tong'er has the Ninth Prince looking after her, so she's become fearless."
Fu Tong'er opened her eyes slightly and said, "Can you stop talking?" Then she closed her eyes again.
"Fu Tong'er, are you awake?"
"You're not leaving, right? Okay!" Fu Tong'er stretched out her hand, hooked it around Lu Zhenzhi's neck, and moved closer. "Master Jiu, I'm sorry. Kiss me." As she spoke, she kissed him awkwardly.
King Hui closed his eyes and said slowly, "Don't put on a show for me. I won't bother you now. If you like to lean on Uncle Nine's arms, I will... obey you."
Having said that, he turned his back.
"I just want to be with you right now. It's okay to see you love someone else."
Fu Tong'er couldn't help but open her eyes and turned to look at King Hui's pitiful back. No, this bastard was truly pitiful! Turning back again, she inadvertently looked up and met Lu Zhenzhi's deep eyes, which looked somewhat displeased. So, she huddled obediently against the man's chest, rubbing circles against it in a flattering manner, carefully observing his drooping expression.
Lu Zhenzhi frowned slightly, raised his hand to touch the corners of Fu Tong'er's slightly moist eyes, and frowned even tighter. His fingers also lingered there: Is this girl moved by King Hui!
"Master Jiu..." Fu Tong'er called softly.
"Um?"
At this time, King Hui also opened his eyes and listened carefully.
"It's okay, I just want to scream." Fu Tong'er smiled and closed her eyes.
Lu Zhenzhi smiled faintly, the previous episode was no longer important.
King Hui felt as if a feather arrow had pierced his heart, making it difficult to breathe. He could only close his eyes and said, "Tong'er, I'm kindly asking you to leave the Ninth Prince. If one day he doesn't want you anymore, he will mercilessly use his methods on you. How can a little girl like you defeat him? I won't take your life no matter what. But if the Ninth Prince gets ruthless, your death will be a miserable one."
"My nephew knows me well." Lu Zhenzhi said calmly, "Someone come!"
Two soldiers came over and clasped their fists and reported: "Master Jiu!"
"Send His Royal Highness Prince Hui back to his palace." Lu Zhenzhi said, "The imperial city has been in turmoil lately. The two of you will guard outside Prince Hui's palace and not allow him to enter or leave."
When King Hui heard this, he stood up suddenly. Two soldiers responded and came over to take King Hui away.
"Uncle Nine, you imprisoned me!"
"To protect your safety." Lu Zhenzhi said calmly, "Take it away."
"Yes! Master Jiu!"
