"What did you say? Make me the prince?" Shao Yan smiled bitterly: "Prince Long, I admit that I was wrong when I pretended to be you before, but it was also a temporary measure. In fact, I never thought about becoming this prince.
, and I have no interest in what you call Jiangshan Sheji. You, sir, have a lot of money. Please don’t make such a joke with me. I am very timid. Besides, I am very busy. I still have a lot of things to do. Otherwise, this is the case.
, I will carry you to find Bai Mei."
Prince Long was slightly startled, "Do you know Mr. Baimei?"
Shao Yan couldn't help but want to laugh when he saw Prince Long calling Baimei "Master". What kind of Master Baimei? At best, he's just an old boy who doesn't grow up. He talks about benevolence, justice and morality, but doesn't even have any compassion.
"To be honest, Brother Baimei and I have been together during this period. He regards me as the prince. I originally wanted to finish my work and tell him the truth. After all, the prince's position is yours.
It has nothing to do with me at all.”
"Brother Shao, what you said is wrong. The life and death of the prince is related to the survival of the Donglin Kingdom. Can you bear to watch a great river and mountain being taken captive by traitors? Can you bear to watch more innocent people lose their lives? Can you bear to watch it?
Is it because the people of Donglin Kingdom are in ruins?"
Damn, this guy can use parallel sentences and make it sound as if it is true. Is it that serious? Shao Yan thought for a moment and smiled heartily: "What Prince Long said is very reasonable, but I still said the same thing,
I don’t want to be a prince, let alone an emperor?”
Seeing Shao Yan's resolute attitude, a trace of loneliness flashed in Prince Long's eyes, and he suddenly fell to the ground. Shao Yan was startled, "Your Highness, what are you doing?"
Prince Long did not answer, and Shao Yan shouted several more times. Seeing Prince Long lying motionless on the ground, Shao Yan was a little scared, and then he remembered what Prince Long had just said, "When a person is about to die, his words are also good."
, could he be dead? Shao Yan carefully turned Prince Long over, but saw that his seven orifices began to bleed, and his whole body was shaking slightly, as if he had been poisoned?
"Your Highness, Your Highness." Seeing that he was still breathing, Shao Yan patted his face. Prince Long slowly opened his eyes and said feebly: "Brother Shao, please promise me to take good care of your father and mother."
"I don't understand. We just met for the first time. Why would you trust me so much just because I look a lot like you? Aren't you afraid that I will be the same as your enemy?"
After hearing Shao Yan's words, Prince Long looked a little sad and said in a deep voice: "Although I have been playful since I was a child, my vision is not wrong. I absolutely believe in Brother Shao's character. Ever since I saw you for the first time,
I knew you were the one I was waiting for."
Shao Yan was a little puzzled. The implication was that Prince Chen Long seemed to have been at the bottom of the valley for a long time, otherwise his hair and clothes would not be so dirty. Also, this guy's face was also very pale, or maybe it was
Hungry, the whole thing is in a sickly state
Prince Chen Long spit out a big mouthful of blood before he could say a few words. Shao Yan was caught off guard for a moment, and his clothes were all covered with Prince Long's blood. Prince Long coughed a few times before saying: "Brother Shao doesn't know something. Someone poured it into my body."
I administered a chronic poison, which can take as little as half a month, or as long as one month. During this period, I may die at any time. I have been waiting here for a whole month. You are the one I saw.
The first person, and the one who can replace me, I..."
Shao Yan didn't wait for him to finish and said hurriedly: "Your Highness, I really can't promise you. I've already told you that I will go back as soon as I find the person I'm looking for."
"Who is Brother Shao looking for?"
"His name is Wu Hai, he is my second senior brother"
"Wu Hai?" Prince Long's face changed greatly, and he continued: "Brother Shao, there is no need to look for him. He is in Donglin Country. You can find him by taking out my badge."
Shao Yan was surprised and happy, "Is what you said true? Is he really in Donglin country? Then tell me, where is he specifically? Is he an official, a businessman, or an ordinary citizen?"
Prince Long did not speak. When Shao Yan turned around, he found that he had stopped breathing, but saw that there was still a smile on the corner of his mouth, obviously without any regrets. Shao Yan shook his head helplessly, not knowing whether he was happy or sad.
After finally getting the news about Wu Hai, it turned out to be another mystery. If you want to solve this mystery, you have to go to Donglin Kingdom, and doing so is tantamount to indirectly agreeing to Prince Long, inheriting the ancestral business on his behalf, and stirring up the whole
country
After burying the Dragon Prince, Shao Yan took the waist tag he left behind and walked out of the valley. Along the way, he felt a pain in his calf, so he squatted down and pulled up his trouser leg, only to see a plum blossom-shaped patch left on his calf.
On the seal, there are two words "East Palace" engraved on it. Doesn't the East Palace refer to the prince? Shao Yan suddenly realized that this must have been done by Prince Chen Long while he was asleep. No wonder I seemed to be bitten by the mad dog in my dream.
took a bite
Prince Chen Long has worked hard for the Donglin Kingdom. If I refuse again, it seems a bit unjustifiable. However, entering the palace is not a trivial matter after all. If it is not done well, he will be beheaded. What happened to Prince Chen Long is
A good example. There are hidden conspiracies and intrigues everywhere in the palace. If you don’t pay attention, you will fall into the trap. After thinking about it, Shao Yan decided to return to Donglin Kingdom temporarily in the name of the prince, treating it as a trip.
It was the next morning after leaving the valley. Shao Yan walked all night. His body and mind were already exhausted, and his steps became heavier and heavier. He took difficult steps and arrived at a small village near the capital.
After traveling all night, he was hungry and thirsty, so he went to a random house and asked for a drink of water. The couple at that house were very enthusiastic, so they took out some steamed buns from home and handed them to him. Shao Yan saw their family of four nesting together.
Knowing that this was a poor family in a small thatched house, they took out some silver coins, but the couple refused to take them life and death.
There are still many good people in this world. Shao Yan was eating steamed buns while walking and unknowingly walked on a country road. After eating and drinking, he smiled and sang a childhood song, "Walking on a country road."
On the road, the old cow returning at dusk is my companion. The blue sky with the setting sun is on my chest. The colorful clouds are the clothes of the sunset. The lotus holds the hoe on my shoulder..."
Just halfway through the song, a group of big men holding sticks suddenly appeared in front of them. Shao Yan thought their faces were very strange. They didn't look like the group from the Animal Village. Since they weren't sent by the Animals, they should be some little gangsters nearby.
Just give me some money and you can spend it. Thinking of this, Shao Yan took out a fifty-tael banknote from his arms and smiled: "Fellow gentlemen, I only have this little money on me. Please let me go."
life"
The fat man at the front of the queue snorted angrily: "Don't follow me, someone will pay us to kill you. Boy, I'm sorry, you will die today."
"What did you say? Someone wants to kill me?" Shao Yan found it funny. After thinking about it, I did do a lot of sorry things to the bad guys, but it was not worthy of death. I met robbers when I went out. What a fucking piece of luck.
Seeing that Shao Yan remained silent, the fat man thought he was frightened and said coldly: "Boy, you don't need to be afraid. Everyone dies. You just reincarnated early. I will come back to you in eighteen years."
"Revenge my enemies." After saying this, he led several other people and walked toward Shao Yan with sticks in hand.
"Wait a minute" Shao Yan shouted, and those people stopped in a hurry. The fat man said impatiently: "Boy, what else do you want?"
"Brothers, I want to know who sent you to kill me?" Seeing the other party's hesitation, Shao Yan continued: "This eldest brother just said that I would go to my enemies for revenge after I turn 18, but you should always
Tell me, who is my enemy?"
"This?" The fat man paused for a moment and then said: "This is the rule of the world. We only take money to do things and won't interfere too much. I'm sorry, we cannot meet your request."
"In that case, let me ask how much they paid you?"
The fat man stretched out his palm proudly, and Shao Yan's eyes widened, "Only five taels?"
"Fart, it's fifty taels," the fat man said angrily
"It's only fifty taels. That's too little. An outstanding young talent like me should be worth this amount at least." Shao Yan also extended his hand.
"Five hundred taels?" the fat man asked in surprise
Shao Yan shook his head
"Five thousand taels?" The fat man was shocked.
"It's fifty thousand taels, idiot," Shao Yan said as he secretly took out the dagger in case of emergency.
"Fifty thousand taels? Hahaha -" The people present laughed, and the fat man laughed contemptuously: "Boy, do you think you are a prince and worth so much money?"
"That's right. I am the prince. What's wrong?" Shao Yan patted his chest confidently, and a rogue mocked: "If you were the prince, we would all become emperors." Then there was another burst of laughter.
"You are so brave, how dare you be rude to the prince." At this moment, a woman's voice came from the front. Before she finished speaking, five people on big white horses rushed over. They were one woman and four men.
The leader is a girl wearing emerald green clothes. She is eighteen or nineteen years old, with a round oval face, dark eyes, and flushed cheeks. She exudes a youthful and lively atmosphere. The four behind her
The men all had their heads wrapped in red cloth, holding scimitars and wearing long riding boots on their feet. They looked very energetic.
"Who is coming?" The fat man obviously didn't pay attention to these people, and immediately led his men to the front. The fat man looked at the girl, pointed at Shao Yan and said: "Smelly girl, you said he is the prince
?Are you treating me like a monkey? Come on, brothers."
The girl looked indifferent. The four tiger generals beside her jumped off their horses and slashed at the fat man and the others with their swords. The fat man and others raised sticks to block the enemy. The four tiger generals were as skilled as swordsmen and cut the opponent's throat directly with one knife.
, the fat man saw how ferocious the intruder was, and quickly escaped with his men. The four tiger generals wanted to chase him, but the girl shouted: "Don't chase after the poor bandits, it's important to protect His Highness the Crown Prince."
Four people came to Shao Yan with knives in hand. The girl changed her indifferent expression and knelt down in front of Shao Yan excitedly. Shao Yan was so frightened that he took two steps back. He thought, how does this girl know that I am the prince? Could it be that she is the prince?
What is Baimei saying?
"The rescue is so late, please forgive me, Your Highness."
It turns out that she is really like this. I saw this girl's eyes were bright and lively, and there was a trace of tears in the corners of her eyes, like pear blossoms with rain, she was very beautiful. I heard that Yunyun and Prince Chen Long were childhood sweethearts since they were young, and the two had a very deep relationship.
Feelings, if this girl knew that the real Prince Chen Long was dead, she would not faint on the spot. Shao Yan thought about it and decided to keep this secret in his heart for the time being and find an opportunity to tell her later.
"Please get up quickly. If you hadn't arrived in time, my prince would have been killed by these gangsters. You have saved me, so why are you guilty?"
