When the Fourth Prince knelt down, his mind was completely blank, and he couldn't even react...
Looking at Prince Ke's innocent expression, Yan Shiyue was really convinced.
This guy...even if he has no emotional intelligence, he should have some basic judgment, right? ! He said such things without hesitation. If you don't know him, you would think he has some deep hatred with the Fourth Prince!
No one could have imagined that the Crown Prince would stand up as if nothing had happened, and with a smile, he pulled the Fourth Prince up and said, "Silang, it's not the first day that Fourteenth Uncle has been outspoken. You don't have to take it seriously."
"That's right! Fourth brother!" Yan Shiyue also smiled and cooperated, walking over and saying, "Fourteenth uncle always says things that shock people. If you take it seriously, you will lose."
Prince Ke opened his mouth and wanted to speak, and then Yan Shiyue said to him with a smile: "If you keep talking nonsense, I won't hire you tomorrow!"
Prince Ke stopped talking immediately.
The Fourth Prince's palms were cold. He forced a smile, thanked the Crown Prince, bowed and left. When he sat down, he realized his back was soaked with sweat.
Yan Shiyue turned around and smiled at everyone, "My Fourteenth Uncle is always a weird person. Two days ago, when I was drawing the picture of the Sun Chariot, he complained to Aye that I was drawing talismans... Just yesterday, he told me mysteriously..."
She imitated his serious and calm manner: "Your eldest son is too greedy! He was asked to divide the 17 cents, and he kept nine for himself and eight for me!"
...
...
Everyone laughed, and then she said with a smile: "I asked him, how else can we divide it? I often hear people say that ordinary people break a penny into two halves to spend... but you have to be able to break it!"
All the officials laughed in unison.
Prince Ke was standing nearby, and he obviously wanted to say something, but he held back.
The atmosphere was finally saved.
When the palace banquet was over, Prince Ke followed them out of the palace. As soon as he got on his horse, he said, "Why are you doing this? I am telling the truth!"
Yan Shiyue asked him: "Do you want Fourth Brother to die?"
Prince Ke was stunned: "I haven't thought about it."
"You can't help but think about it." Yan Shiyue said seriously: "You are a prince, you are in the royal family, your brother has the power of life and death, every word you say may cost you your life, so you can't speak carelessly, you have to consider the consequences."
"But……"
"Don't tell me you are telling the truth. First of all, you don't even know if what you said is true! For example, when you complained about me drawing talismans, you also thought you were telling the truth, right? But what about now? Is it the truth? Besides, if you say something like this, and Aye doesn't trust me enough, and I, a royal princess, draw talismans at home, Ajing and I will both die!"
Prince Ke was stunned.
After returning, Prince Ke felt a little depressed.
The next day, he went to Yuegaofang as usual. Prince Ke was helping people pack when suddenly a woman in plain clothes and wearing a veil came in slowly, lifted the veil with her bare hands and looked at him.
Prince Ke immediately smiled and gestured to her with the snacks.
The woman looked to be about thirty years old, her youth had faded, but she was still extremely beautiful. She looked at him and said, "Do you still recognize me?"
Prince Ke was stunned. He looked at her, had no impression of her at all, and shook his head honestly.
The woman was stunned for a moment, then she laughed and murmured, "You didn't recognize me... You actually said you didn't recognize me..."
She suddenly pulled out a dagger from her bosom and stabbed him: "You actually said you didn't recognize me! You hurt me like this, and you still say you don't recognize me!"
Prince Ke knew Kung Fu, and he was pretty good at it. The woman was just a weak girl, so she shouldn’t be able to hurt him… But the strong emotions that burst out from the woman stunned him, and he actually forgot to resist. The dagger immediately pierced his clothes, and his skin was broken and bleeding.
The Shadow Guard and the Dragon Guard then realized something was wrong and rushed forward quickly, tore the woman apart and pressed her to the ground.
The woman Judas laughed and said, "You actually said you don't recognize me! You made me stay in the family temple for so many years, what right do you have to say you don't recognize me!"
Prince Ke covered his wound, feeling confused and aggrieved, but his mute point had not been unblocked yet, so he could not speak. He just looked at her in bewilderment.
Yan Shiyue got the news quickly.
Prince Ke's injuries were not serious. After all, she was just a weak woman, and she only had two shallow skin wounds. This woman was none other than his ex-fiancée, Chu Xueru, who was sent to the family temple by him.
Yan Shiyue really didn’t know what to say for a moment. She just comforted her family and then sent her back safely.
When he told Prince Ke about it, Prince Ke suddenly realized, "So it was her? But why did she do this? Didn't that incident happen a long time ago?"
Yan Shiyue frowned and looked at him.
His eyes were clear; he really didn't understand.
So, does he have some kind of emotional disorder or emotional deficiency?
She thought that he must have heard everything in the story told by Aunt Fu.
Imagine a prince who is pampered and treated like a star, but when he is sick, he suddenly sees such a horrible side of his closest relative... How shocked and panicked he must be. From then on, he feels that everyone around him is insincere and everyone is acting. This is really normal.
He has absolutely no empathy and cannot feel other people's joys, sorrows, anger or happiness. He is also confused about the mechanisms behind these emotions.
But he is in a high position, surrounded by servants, not even loyal ones, and the shadow guards are invisible men who don't speak... No one taught him these things, and this is not the age of information explosion. He can only guess and explore on his own.
Therefore, it is understandable that he is used to testing, observing, and then making his own judgments.
For example, yesterday, in fact, even if the Fourth Prince really died, he would not feel sad, so he would not think too much and just said whatever he wanted to say.
She just looked at him quietly. Prince Ke became flustered by her look and said, "How about you give me some money and I'll give it to her?"
Yan Shiyue felt a little troubled.
She said, "Take a rest first."
She came out, and then she thought about it, and suddenly remembered someone: "By the way, what is Sheng Qi doing now?"
Jiahe went out for a walk and came back to reply: "He has been locked up by his grandfather to study again. It is said that this is the third time. Grandpa Sheng seems to be obsessed with making him study and become famous."
I see. This is the kind of egg that can't fly high by itself, so it lays an egg and lets it fly hard.
So Yan Shiyue said without any psychological burden: "Call him to me."
Sheng Qi came soon after. When he saw her, he almost burst into tears: "Ayue! You are the best! Fortunately, you think of me! I haven't been out for three months. I am almost stupid from studying..."
He kept talking, and Yan Shiyue nodded and said to him: "My fourteenth uncle, Prince Ke, do you know him?"
Sheng Qi shook his head: "I haven't seen it! But I have heard of it..."
"Well," Yan Shiyue whispered, "He can't speak, so he has no friends since he was a child. I want you to accompany him for a while, and then teach him everything you encounter, such as how to behave, benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom, and trustworthiness. In short, everything... You don't have to be deliberate, just explain it slowly."
Sheng Qi understood immediately and patted his chest: "Don't worry! Leave it to me!"
