Chapter 711 Leaving early
In the past, Zhong Yuzui did not think highly of Prince Rong, but he could not say it openly due to his status.
But she has been blind and didn't care at all, and was blinded by preconceived impressions and was blinded by one thing.
Now, she can still make amends, but Zhong Yu is gone after all.
Zhou Chang was secretly sad.
Prince Rong suddenly snorted again: "Humph, now that I think about it, you are not as simple as you seem, hehe... If you hadn't planted undercover agents around Prince Duan and Prince Xian, how could you have known their plans in the hunting palace in advance. So, I should have someone of yours around me, right? It turns out that you are pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger. It was I who failed to guard against you before and underestimated the enemy, underestimated the enemy..."
"We shouldn't be enemies, and no one is necessarily your enemy." Zhou Chang didn't intend to explain and looked directly at King Rong.
"Stop pretending, we are the same." At this point, Prince Rong could no longer believe what others said, and his smile was distorted. "The whole world is already in your pocket. You used to act as if you didn't like power and didn't get involved in government affairs. But as you said on the mountain that day, in the end, it all depends on who benefits from the outcome. So can you still be innocent?"
"I'm not innocent..." Zhou Chang put on a bitter smile and thought of Zhong Yu again.
She was not innocent from the beginning, and she became even more innocent after Prince Duan broke his leg.
Prince Duan broke his leg, and Gu tried to win him over.
Let her develop unnecessary ambitions and selfish desires in her heart.
If it weren't for this selfish motive, perhaps I could find a reason not to come to Yuebei.
If she doesn't fight this battle, someone else will.
But if she hadn't come, Zhong Yu wouldn't have worked himself to death.
Now that Zhong Yu is gone, the guilt in her heart will accompany her for the rest of her life.
No one can tell this bitter fruit, so I can only swallow it silently.
There was really no point in talking to Prince Rong. Zhou Chang didn't want to talk to Prince Rong anymore. He slowly stood up and walked out.
"Wait..." Prince Rong stopped him, "I've said so much, but you can't even agree to one request?"
Zhou Chang was stunned, he couldn't remember what request Prince Rong had made.
Prince Rong's eyes were filled with despair: "Let me die."
Zhou Chang's gaze met Prince Rong's desperate willow-shaped eyes. After a while, he slowly shook his head, then walked out of the tent without saying a word.
Behind him was the sound of Prince Rong laughing crazily.
After just this short conversation, Zhou Chang felt as if all his energy had been sucked out of him.
I originally thought that she would hate Prince Rong very much, and Prince Yi would hate his brother very much.
However, Zhou Chang suddenly discovered that Prince Yi was not that hateful, or rather, he hated himself more.
I hate myself for being stupid, I hate myself for being confused, I hate myself for being incompetent.
Why can't I get rid of the feeling of being hurt even though I know I'm being hurt?
This made her feel deeply powerless, a feeling of powerlessness she had never felt before.
Zhou Chang walked back with dragging feet, putting Prince Rong's wild laughter out of his mind.
Everything is passing, everything will pass, everything is past.
Zhou Chang had originally wanted Prince Rong to return to the imperial city for trial, as he would only feel relieved when his crimes were exposed to the world. However, after the conversation just now, he no longer had such thoughts.
Then he thought of Yuan Qi. That day on Fengming Mountain, Yuan Qi would rather die than take revenge on King Rong.
"How has Yuan Qi been these days? Has she ever thought about seeking revenge on Prince Rong?" Zhou Chang asked the skinny monkey.
The skinny monkey followed beside him and thought for a moment before replying, "Miss Yuan must have not taken care of her these past few days. She vomited blood on the mountain that day, and was imprisoned for so long before that. During the three days when the prince was unconscious, Miss Yuan was actually also ill. But she got much better today before leaving the tent."
Zhou Chang's heart tightened: "Why didn't you say it just now?"
"It's not serious. Everything is fine now. I don't want Your Highness to worry." The skinny monkey said carelessly.
What Zhou Chang was thinking about was that Yuan Qi had been ill for the past few days, and as soon as he recovered, he did not think of seeking revenge on Prince Rong, but instead looked for his childhood sweetheart first.
It can be seen that Wen Qingyan means a lot to her.
The more I thought about it, the more uncomfortable I felt.
As they walked, they arrived in front of Yuan Qi's tent.
Liu E was just walking out and she knelt down to greet Prince Yi.
When Zhou Chang woke up today, he wanted to see Yuan Qi first, but he didn't have anything important to say. Now that he thought about it, he felt uncomfortable and there was nothing more to say.
Just as he turned around to go back to his own tent, Yuan Qi heard the noise in the tent and came out: "Your Highness Prince Yi, if you are well, can you come in and sit down?"
Zhou Chang couldn't refuse to follow in.
Liu E went out to make tea, and the skinny monkey also tactfully retreated outside the tent to wait.
Zhou Chang didn't know what to say for a moment, so he thought of what the skinny monkey had just said and asked, "After vomiting blood that day, are you in any serious condition?"
Yuan Qi asked Zhou Chang to sit down and smiled gently: "It's nothing. The military doctor said that what you vomited out was all blood clots. It's better to spit it out."
Zhou Chang nodded with relief.
"How is the recovery of the prince's injuries?" Yuan Qi asked again, "According to what the skinny monkey said, the military doctor said that as long as the prince wakes up, he will have passed the most dangerous stage, and he just needs to recuperate well. Did the military doctor say how to recuperate?"
"Don't worry, it's okay. The wound will heal completely in two days." Zhou Chang did feel that he was fine, but his mind was full of thoughts about what to say to Yuan Qi.
Yuan Qi was also relieved: "That's good. I'm leaving tomorrow. I can rest assured knowing that the prince is in good health before I leave."
"Leaving tomorrow?" Zhou Chang's tone was uncontrollable, "Where are you going? Aren't you going back to Jindu with me?"
Yuan Qi seemed to have made a decision long ago: "Jindu must go back, but I have been missing for such a long time, and there are many things waiting to be dealt with at home. Once they are almost dealt with, I will rush to the imperial city as soon as possible."
"There's no one living here, how are you going to leave alone?" Zhou Chang couldn't figure out why Yuan Qi was in such a hurry to leave.
Yuan Qi had already made arrangements: "It doesn't matter. According to the time, they should have learned about my rescue and should arrive tomorrow."
The day after Yuan Qi was rescued, he sent someone to send a message to Yufengshe, informing them of his whereabouts and asking Wu Hong to come to the Jizhou military camp to pick him up.
"You're leaving so early..." Zhou Chang was reluctant to let you go. He tried to find a reason to keep you, but he couldn't think of anything.
Yuan Qi seemed not to care at all and asked again: "Did Your Majesty go to see Prince Rong just now?"
"Yes..." Zhou Chang was reminded, "By the way, you have always said that you want to avenge your father. Now the people of King Rong are here, and the evidence is irrefutable. If you want to take revenge in any way, just tell me, and I will definitely help you with all my strength. Don't worry about what happens next, I will find a way to deal with it."
Zhou Chang had had this idea before when he was at the foot of Fengming Mountain.
At that time, if Peng Liang was handed over to Liu E and Gao Yuan to let them vent their anger, then Prince Rong could also be handed over to Yuan Qi to let Yuan Qi take revenge.
