Lord Zhong's original name was Zhong Wei. He was the Crown Prince's tutor in the Eastern Palace. There must be something going on in the palace.
Geng Qi then remembered and asked, "Why didn't you go to court today?"
Rong Yu: "No bathing today."
"Oh." Glancing at the people outside who hadn't left, Geng Qi said, "You'd better hurry, they're still waiting for you..."
How can I get there like this?
Glancing down, Geng Qi couldn't help but laugh.
In real life, aren't you quite capable? Without cultivation, you've lost even this basic self-control?
"Actually, this thing, once you go outside and get a cold breeze, it will naturally... um."
Finally, after being half-forced to help him by the hand, the man got up feeling refreshed and left, giving him a reluctant kiss on the lips before leaving.
Rong Yu knew he was telling the truth. Whether it was the feeling of skin touching skin, the excitement of kissing, or even their intimate interactions, everything felt very familiar to him.
Why don't you remember?
I don't want to think about it, and I dare not think about it.
Trying to maintain a smile as he saw the person off, Geng Qi's eyes darkened, and he shrank back into the covers, saying, "System, something's not right!"
Why aren't you saying anything?
He wanted some peace and quiet.
Suddenly realizing something, Geng Qi glared at him: "You didn't hear everything, did you?"
System is furious:
If he could take human form, he would definitely have a look of utter despair right now!
Geng Qi said insincerely, "Sorry, sorry, I'll definitely remember to turn you off next time!"
"Let's get down to business. I don't think this place is entirely Rong Yu's illusion."
Geng Qi: "..." Sure enough.
The illusion was created by the consciousness of the Desolate Swamp Secret Realm. If it can control the illusion, it will be very dangerous for them to stay here for too long.
If he didn't have the system, would he gradually lose his past memories and be assimilated by the illusion?
Startled by his own guess, Geng Qi quickly got up, put on his clothes, and was about to get out of bed when he suddenly noticed a heavy weight on his ankle. The pitch-black iron was still firmly fastened to his foot.
"..."
You've inspected the goods but haven't paid? Are you trying to get something for nothing?!
She dangled her legs over the edge of the bed and swung them around. It didn't seem to have any effect, so she put on her shoes and socks again and, supporting her aching body, left the room.
Since he couldn't leave the villa for the time being, he could only walk around inside. Queyan still followed him closely, and was much more attentive than before. She never let go of the fox fur coat, ensuring that the young master would stay warm whenever he felt cold, even though he refused to wear it.
After walking around the villa, although I didn't see anyone, I could tell where people were hiding. These were the places with the best view in the villa, like they were equipped with panoramic cameras, and no movement could escape their surveillance.
Whether it was his body's fault or the villa's sheer size, Geng Qi was exhausted after just one walk around. Instead of going back to his room, he sat in the courtyard outside his bedroom.
"Young master, this stone bench is cold. Why don't you go back inside?"
Geng Qi didn't move, but instead asked, "Que Yan, do you know me?"
The young maid, who was only thirteen years old, paused for a moment upon hearing this, seemingly puzzled.
He's been taking care of the young master for over half a year, how could he not recognize him?
Seeing her blank expression, Geng Qi understood that Que Yan must not know his former identity.
He turned his head to look at me, smiled, and said, "When you have some free time, could you go to the street and buy me a few things?"
Queyan said, "Young master, please feel free to tell me what you need."
"Finding what I need might be a bit troublesome, so you'll have to go yourself. I don't trust anyone else to do it."
Queyan was immediately in a dilemma: "This..."
If she leaves, there will be no one left in this courtyard. His Highness the Crown Prince has instructed her to stay by the young master's side at all times.
Geng Qi took out a jade pendant from his bosom and handed it to her. "Keep this. I know you don't dare to accept things from me. It's not worth much, it just looks nice. It will fit you well. Go ahead and buy it. I will stay in the room when you go out and won't even leave the courtyard."
A few words dispelled all the girl's concerns. She held the jade pendant in her hand. It was indeed not very good, far inferior to the ones the Crown Prince had given her. However, this piece of jade was red and white with distinct layers, and the patterns carved on it were extremely exquisite. People always love beauty, and once they held such a beautiful thing, they were reluctant to let go. After hesitating for a while, she agreed.
Geng Qi then took out paper and ink and wrote down a few items, instructing Queyan to buy them accordingly.
After the person left, he actually sat in the room, looking at the snow piled on the houses in the distance outside the window, and asked, "How is the court now?"
If we let nature take its course, Rong Yu will eventually ascend the throne!
The father and son are harmonious, and the brothers are friendly and respectful. In reality, Rong Yu also longs for family affection!
But the beautiful things he built were destined to be shattered.
Geng Qi stroked the jade thumb ring on his hand. He originally wanted to take it slow and try to find a way to wake people up without resorting to extreme measures, but the methods of the secret realm forced him to choose a quick victory.
A few days later, the news that the Crown Prince frequently left the palace finally caught on and people noticed something amiss. In just a few days, waves of spies appeared outside the villa. Although they were all dealt with immediately, this only fueled suspicion.
Human hearts are greedy and fickle. Previously, the Crown Prince had done things flawlessly, and the court could not find any fault with him. Some people with ulterior motives had no way to deal with him. Now that they have finally found a "handle" on the Crown Prince, they will never let it go. Therefore, more and more people will appear outside the villa.
Rong Yu still comes every day, but he doesn't stay as long as before.
Geng Qi knew his troubles and didn't hide them. After being alone with him for a while, he thoughtfully suggested, "Why don't we go somewhere else? Something they can't find us."
