Chapter 94 Come on, take advantage of it!

"Royal brother", these two words seemed to be squeezed out from Shen Zhaoheng's teeth.

Shen Zhiwu smiled. He found Shen Zhaoheng's expression very interesting, as if he had done something unforgivable.

"I have submitted the memorial a long time ago," Shen Zhi leaned on the bed leisurely, "otherwise why would the fifth brother come here?"

Shen Zhaoheng clenched his fist subconsciously, and his lips trembled.

No wonder, no wonder his father was furious and ordered him to rush to Zhuozhou immediately to rescue the victims.

It turns out that the emperor would also be afraid. He was afraid that his son, the current crown prince, would do something irreparable.

When the flood spread in Zhuozhou, the prince not only did nothing but also had the leisure to marry a male wife.

The prince might have gone insane and was behaving strangely and frighteningly, so the emperor did not dare to take any gamble.

Although he did not care about the victims, he cared about his reputation. It would be fine if the prince accidentally contracted the plague and died after the flood. But if the prince relied on his status as the crown prince to do whatever he wanted and ruined the reputation of the royal family.

That is something that is absolutely irreversible. The emperor does not know why the prince has become like this. Perhaps he first saw the clues after the prince became blind.

Shen Zhi chuckled, "If the emperor doesn't send the fifth brother, I'm afraid I'll burn down Zhuozhou. After all, this place is really dirty. It has to be burned thoroughly before we can smell the fresh smell."

"I am Lord Chu, how could I come to such a filthy place, hahahaha", Shen Zhi laughed out loud at the end, looking a little crazy.

Shen Zhaoheng stepped back in fear, staring blankly at Shen Zhi's deep and sinister eyes with a panicked look on his face.

"My royal brother's jokes are really not funny," Shen Zhaoheng realized that he had lost his composure and immediately restrained his expression, pretending to be his usual gentle and elegant self.

Shen Zhi didn't care whether Shen Zhaoheng believed it or not. It was enough for him to know that he could make them unhappy.

Shen Zhi couldn't stop sobbing at the end of his laughter, with clear tears at the corners of his eyes, just like the tears of an immortal in the sky, it was beautiful.

But it made Shen Zhaoheng feel extremely cold.

The 80,000 people of Zhuozhou were nothing in Shen Zhi's mind. He spoke of it as if they were ants that could be crushed at will.

Shen Zhi wiped the tears from his eyes and raised his soft red lips, "The East City is already burning now, why don't you go take a look, Fifth Brother?"

Shen Zhi spoke in a light and floating tone, and the words he uttered formed sentences that made Shen Zhaoheng unbelievable.

Shen Zhaoheng's face completely sank. He no longer cared to verify the truth of Shen Zhi's words and strode away.

Shen Zhi closed his eyes and could even clearly hear Shen Zhaoheng's angry roar outside the door.

So wonderful.

The gloomy sunlight outside the window shone into the main room, but it was not bright enough to penetrate Shen Zhi's eyelids.

It was pitch black, without a single ray of light.

Shen Zhi could smell the pungent smell of burning smoke at the tip of his nose.

"Your Highness, let me take your pulse," Chu Cunjian walked in carrying a medicine box.

Shen Zhi did not move, still keeping his eyes closed, and said in a calm voice, "No need."

"Have you developed a medicine to cure the plague?" Shen Zhi did not feel any discomfort.

He thought Chu Cunjian had already developed it.

But unlike what Shen Zhi imagined, Chu Cunjian did not look happy, and shook his head, "No, it can only be contained temporarily, with little effect."

Chu Cunjian did not miss Shen Zhi's frowning brows and explained in a low voice: "Your Highness was able to recover because of the two evil spirits in his body, which counteracted each other."

Shen Zhi slowly opened his eyes. The faint light that leaked in could not illuminate his expression. Hidden in the darkness, his jade-like profile was covered with a layer of shadow.

"So that's how it is. In this case, I should thank it," Shen Zhi said with an inexplicable sarcasm in his tone.

Chu Cunjian lowered his brows and said nothing. After a while, he said in a deep voice, "Your Highness, I asked my master. The pigs in the palace came from the Western Regions. Now they are exclusively owned by the royal family of Cang Kingdom."

Shen Zhi turned a deaf ear to it, as if he already knew the answer.

Chu Cunjian raised his head, a knot in his eyes, and was about to speak.

Shen Zhi took out a dagger from somewhere and cut his own white wrist. Blood gushed out and dripped onto the ground, forming a trail of blood.

Shen Zhi let the blood flow, and casually threw the dagger in front of Chu Cunjian, blocking Chu Cunjian's unfinished words, "Just give me medicine, since I can live, others can live too."

Chu Cunjian's eyelids twitched. He picked up the dagger respectfully and followed the order.

Arriving at the door, Chu Cunjian couldn't help but look at Shen Zhi. The high and mighty prince was like a fallen and bloody immortal, a gorgeous evil flower blooming in the abyss.

Chu Cunjian's heart was beating wildly for the prince. He could not resist his desire and asked hesitantly, "Your Highness wants to marry a man?"

Shen Zhi didn't know about Chu Cunjian's struggle, and this matter was insignificant to him, so he nodded and said, "We'll get married soon."

Chu Cunjian's body was half bathed in light and shadow, and his shadow on the ground was a little sluggish. His Adam's apple moved unconsciously, and his voice was hoarse: "Congratulations, Your Highness."

The prince did not say anything else. After Chu Cunjian left, the room was silent.

Shen Zhaoheng arrived in time and rescued all the remaining people in East City. Fortunately, someone secretly sent a message today saying that bandits were going to rob East City, and the people left one after another after hearing the news. I am afraid that the fire will burn all the people in East City.

This also made Shen Zhaoheng fully realize how crazy Shen Zhi was now.

Shen Zhaoheng couldn't understand why Shen Zhi only tortured ministers when he was blind, but after he recovered, he became more rampant, like a Rakshasa from hell or a ghost seeking revenge.

Shen Zhaoheng had no energy to fight with Shen Zhi, so he sent memorials to the capital, all of which accused Shen Zhi of evil deeds.

Instead, the news of the crown prince burning 80,000 victims of the disaster in Zhuozhou became a hot topic, and the rebel army used this incident to raise their flags and win over the hearts of the people.

The situation had to be such that the Crown Prince would be deposed before they would stop.

However, these words could only deceive the people. Shen Zhaoheng knew that they wanted to change the dynasty in Cang State.

Whenever Shen Zhaoheng faced the common people, he always felt his heart pounding, as if the people were staring at him from behind and would eat his flesh and suck his blood if he was not careful.

And the culprit, Shen Zhi, was still in the mood to go out for fun, which really made Shen Zhaoheng very depressed.

Now that the plague is under control, the people with mild symptoms are slowly recovering, and Shen Zhi's position as crown prince has become the focus of the struggle between the court and the rebels.

If Shen Zhi was really deposed, the rebels would have tasted the sweetness and the next target would be the throne. The court did not want the rebels to gain power, so it would definitely keep Shen Zhi firmly in place.

The emperor even allowed Shen Zhi to marry a man in order to fight the rebels.

What else does Shen Zhi have to worry about?

Shen Zhi strolled along the street. The main and small roads were all covered with lime. The smell was a bit strong, but it was more comfortable than the previous rotten and smelly smell.

The plague gradually improved, medicine was supplied to the people day by day, and the whole place was peaceful and happy.

As Shen Zhi was walking, someone pulled his hem and he lowered his head to look.

It was a little girl. She tilted her head and said with a smile, "Brother, I am cured."

Shen Zhi also smiled and said, "Very good."

The little girl's cheeks had grown some flesh, making her look lively. "Brother, you really didn't lie to me. Now that the prince is here, we are all saved."

"I saw the prince. He was riding a tall horse and smiling," the little girl tried hard to recall and describe the scene she saw to Shen Zhi.

The little girl didn't know that what she saw was not the crown prince, but the fifth prince.

Shen Zhi didn't expose her, he just patted her head and sighed, "That's great."

The little girl nodded affirmatively.

Shen Zhi patted her shoulder, his eyes gentle: "Go back quickly, your family will be worried if they can't find you."

The little girl sensitively noticed that this angelic brother was unhappy, so she nodded quickly and ran away like the wind.

Shen Zhi looked up. The dizzying sun was hanging brightly in the sky. Just one glance at it made his eyes hurt terribly.

Shen Zhi's body swayed uncontrollably, and the next second someone held his forearm firmly.

Shen Zhi closed his eyes for a while, wanting to thank the person next to him, but when he opened his eyes again, the person had disappeared.

Shen Zhi came back very late and Zhong Wenyan was waiting for him in the room.

"Your Highness, it's time to take your medicine," Zhong Wenyan handed the still warm medicine cup to Shen Zhi.

It is for replenishing blood. Shen Zhi's face turned extremely pale. Zhong Wenyan couldn't help but persuade him, "Your Highness, if you continue to ruin your body like this, it will be difficult to recover in the future."

Shen Zhi took the medicine as if he was drinking water. He was not affected by the bitter taste at all and drank it all in one gulp.

"Later? There is no later?" Shen Zhi sounded like he was joking, but Zhong Wenyan somehow heard some sincerity in his words.

Shen Zhi took off his outer robe and lay on the bed. He was too exhausted to say a word. He could have said a few more words to Zhong Wenyan, "We'll get married when we return to the capital. You should go out and have a rest now. You'll have work to do in two days."

Although Zhong Wenyan knew that the Crown Prince had no other intentions, he still couldn't help but blush when he heard the word "hard work".

Zhong Wenyan took a deep look at Shen Zhi lying on the bed, then retreated silently.

Perhaps Shen Zhi had a bad fate since childhood. When he was born, Concubine Xin happened to be pregnant, so the emperor did not even look at the newly born prince.

Yes, the crown prince is chosen from birth.

Shen Zhi thought that he was not close to his father because he was the crown prince. Later he found out that it was because his mother was not liked by his father. In his father's heart, the position of crown prince actually belonged to his fifth younger brother.

Shen Zhi was young at the time and felt very upset. He asked his mother if he could give the position of crown prince to his fifth younger brother.

The Queen Mother, who always responded to requests, refused. She said that it was not something he could decide, nor could it be decided by his father and mother. It was decided by the court. The position of Crown Prince was his, and no one could take it away.

Shen Zhi always regarded his mother's words as a motto, and facts proved that it was indeed so, because even if his mother passed away, the position of Empress in the harem would be vacant, and his father's favorite Concubine Xin Gui could not sit in that position.

But now, Shen Zhi has the ability to remove himself from the position of crown prince.

But his methods were so despicable and cruel that even after his death, even his loving mother would not tolerate it.

On the day of Shen Zhi's wedding, the rebel army had officially declared war on the Cang Kingdom and captured three cities overnight.

The emperor had no choice but to send envoys to negotiate peace.

The rebel was also a character. He left behind 50,000 troops and came to the capital alone, saying that he wanted to taste the Crown Prince's wedding wine.

This is the first time that a prince has married a man, and he wants to meet him.

Shen Zhi was drunk and staggered into the bridal chamber. There was a shadowy figure sitting quietly beside the bridal bed.

Covered with a red veil.

"Zhong Wenyan," Shen Zhi called out vaguely, but the person beside the bed did not respond.

Shen Zhi walked to the table and poured himself a cup of tea. He poured it down his throat, and the cold tea made Shen Zhi sober up a lot.

Shen Zhi turned his head to look at the person on the bed. The tall person was still dressed in a bridal gown, which looked a little out of place.

Suddenly, the candles in the room went out, and an unidentified male voice rang out, "Your Highness, it's time to rest."

A light laugh came from the room, coming from Shen Zhi's mouth. Shen Zhi and the bride were facing each other, separated only by a red cloth.

"Is it interesting? Xiao Lang."
