King of Han Dynasty of Ming Dynasty

This statement came out.

The whole place was silent, and everyone's eyes unconsciously fell on Yang Shiqi who was kneeling on the ground. The atmosphere in the whole room became depressing and solemn as the prince asked this question.

Yang Shiqi, who was kneeling on the ground, was slightly startled when he heard such a question. He was shocked and felt the murderous intent gathering around him. He did not dare to hesitate and quickly replied:
“No, no, no.”

"No one has whispered provocative words in my ears behind my back."

"This is really a spur-of-the-moment action by this humble minister. If Your Highness does not believe me, you can order the Royal Guards to conduct a detailed investigation of the places I have been to today to verify the authenticity of my words."

While replying.

Yang Shiqi understood instantly and probably guessed why the prince was so angry. He was worried about him. He was worried that he might have been tricked by others and become a pawn in the hands of others, or that he might have other thoughts and secretly connected with certain people to commit a betrayal.

After hearing this, Zhu Gaochi was slightly stunned, his pupils shrank, he frowned and pondered for a moment, then continued to ask with interest:

"Oh?"

"Is it really just a spur of the moment?"

"Why is it that in the past, when I did certain things, you were so sensible and never happened like this? Why is it that this time, at this time, you did something so unreasonable?"

"Yang Shiqi"

"I am giving you a chance. If you don't want others to know about things in this world, then don't do them yourself."

"You'd better put away your self-righteous thoughts and tell me the truth. If I really find out that you have deceived me in the slightest, don't blame me for not considering our friendship for so many years."

"Or"

"Give us a reasonable explanation for your decisive answer just now."

"Give me an answer that will convince me and put me at ease."

Dele.

Yang Shiqi understood.

As for what happened today, if he doesn't give a reasonable explanation, the Jinyiwei may find out that he has not interacted with anyone, and his fate will not be good.

Even if he could leave the Jinyiwei prison safely this time, he would never be able to gain the trust of the crown prince in the future, and he would definitely be marginalized gradually.

in this way.

Naturally, Yang Shiqi could not accept this. To Yang Shiqi, he still had so many ideals and ambitions that had not been realized. Just being lost among the crowd made him feel more uncomfortable than if he were killed.

As for this explanation
Why would he do such an abnormal thing?

As he thought about it, Yang Shiqi slowly raised his head, narrowed his eyes and looked at Han Wang Zhu Gaoxu, who was sitting next to the prince and had never said a word from beginning to end, and fell silent.

Noticing the gazes falling on him, Zhu Gaoxu, who had been watching the show, was slightly startled. A hint of curiosity flashed across his eyes, and some doubts arose in his heart.

What the hell?
This bastard. Could it be that this matter has some connection with him? Is there any connection between him and him?
It shouldn’t be!

You know, Yang Shiqi is a bastard with a stubborn temper. Over the years, they have been seeing each other every day, but this old guy has never given him any good face. Every time they meet, he always acts as if Yang Shiqi owes him a lot of money.

As he thought about it, Zhu Gaoxu couldn't help but become interested. He half-closed his eyes and looked back without hesitation. He smiled at Yang Shiqi who was staring at him, and teased:

"What's the matter?"

"Master Yang, are you trying to say that your abnormal behavior today has something to do with us?"

"It seems that over the years, Lord Yang has only spoken to me a few times, and even when he did, it seems that what Lord Yang said to me was not good."

"The relationship between the two of us has always been like fire and water."

Having said this, Zhu Gaoxu paused, his face still calm, but it was obvious that his expression gradually became colder and more solemn as he spoke, with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes, and he continued:
"This matter."

"My king, I didn't want to intervene and I don't want to say anything more."

"But judging from Lord Yang's expression, this matter seems to really involve this king."

"So, I also hope that Lord Yang can give me a reasonable explanation. If it cannot satisfy me, if Lord Yang is just trying to use me as a shield, I think you also know my character."

"You have to think about the consequences of this."

"I'm not the boss, I'm not as soft-hearted as him."

"Then we will settle all old and new accounts with you."

Not to mention that Zhu Gaoxu noticed Yang Shiqi's intention, the prince sitting next to him naturally saw this move and naturally noticed Yang Shiqi's intention. Especially when he heard Zhu Gaoxu's cold questioning, the expression on his face became more and more gloomy, and a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

After hearing this, feeling the meaningful gaze falling on him, Yang Shiqi's expression showed urging, but he did not retreat at all. He simply sorted out his thoughts, his face suddenly became serious, gritted his teeth, and spoke out his innermost thoughts, saying:
"Return to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince"

"My humble servant, this action was indeed a spur of the moment action."

"Of course, there is a reason for this."

"In fact, I saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Prince Han together, and Prince Han's heart..."

"This happened today. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Prince have traveled to so many places and done so many things. Although I don't know what the deep meaning is, there must be some plan behind this."

"And I am worried."

"That's why I did this."

Having said this, Yang Shiqi tactfully stopped talking and did not say anything else.

Although the words were vague, they were not fools and could naturally understand what Yang Shiqi meant.

Zhu Gaoxu: “!!!!!!!!!”

Hey!
He almost couldn't hold back from swearing.

No, no, is it that serious?
Look, look, is this human language?
Do I have to be so defensive and harsh? Is his reputation really that bad?
Who else said that the prince is a cunning person, does he really think he can be fooled so easily?
These words also made Zhu Gaoxu wonder whether the old guy Yang Shiqi was deliberately looking for an opportunity to scold him and deliberately behave in this way to disgust him.

However, this explanation seemed to make sense. After all, based on his understanding of these sour and corrupt scholars, these things were indeed something that these corrupt and sour scholars could do.

At the same time, it could also explain why Yang Shiqi looked at him in that way just now.

As he thought about it, Zhu Gaoxu took a deep look at Yang Shiqi who was kneeling on the ground, then turned his head to look at the prince who was stunned on the spot, and said sarcastically:
"Okay!"

"Boss! Boss!"

"Look, look, you are a loyal subject."

"It's just that today, the two of us brothers spent a little longer together, but we just did a few things together."

"Everyone was afraid that I had deceived and fooled you, the prince, and they almost lost their composure and did something so inappropriate."

"Fortunately, this is in Yingtian City, not somewhere else. If you leave with me and go to other places to handle business, I'm afraid all the civil officials in the capital won't be able to sleep well."

"I'm afraid we might kill you."

"The middle of the night is the most comfortable time to sleep, but I was forced to get out of bed by your words, and I didn't expect you to watch such an 'interesting' scene."

"Interesting, interesting, really too interesting."

This is said.

The prince, who was already feeling extremely embarrassed, felt even more embarrassed at this moment, and he wanted to dig out a three-bedroom apartment with his feet.

to be frank.

Yang Shiqi's answer was beyond his expectations. He never dreamed that this bastard Yang Shiqi would do this for this reason. If Zhu Gaochi had known that Yang Shiqi was doing this for this reason, he would never force him and would not summon Zhu Gaoxu to come.

This, this, this…it’s amazing!

Even though Zhu Gaochi was an eloquent speaker, facing the current situation, he didn't know what to say or how to answer this question.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the whole room was extremely awkward.

Apart from Zhu Gaoxu's occasional sneers, no one said a word.

It's not that I don't want to talk, nor am I dumb. It's just that I really don't know what to say.

At this moment, the whole room seemed to have stopped in time.

That's it.

After a long while, Zhu Gaochi simply sorted out his thoughts, looked at Yang Shiqi who was kneeling on the ground with a gloomy face, and then slapped the table heavily, shouting angrily:
"Bastard thing."

"What bullshit."

"who……"

The words have not yet fallen.

Before he could finish his words, Zhu Gaoxu, who was sitting next to him, interrupted him with a wave of his hand and said:

"Okay, okay..."

"Boss, stop acting in front of me."

"What's the point of scolding me?"

"Which of us brothers doesn't know who?"

"Happy...happy, laugh if you want to, it's okay..."

"Anyway, these things are not unknown to everyone."

"There's nothing to be surprised about."

"but……"

Having said this, Zhu Gaoxu paused, narrowed his eyes, looked at the prince with interest, and said with a smile:

"Boss..."

"So what do you think we should do about the current situation?"

"Are you still willing to give it up?"

"Are you still willing?"

"Are you still going to continue with what you said before and what you thought before?"

"Hahaha……"

Zhu Gaochi: "!!!!!!"

This question was asked.

It just silenced him.

Are you willing to do so?
Still want to continue?

Do we really want to send Yang Shiqi to the imperial prison to keep him company with Chen Ji?
To tell the truth.

Just when he didn't know why Yang Shiqi was like this, Zhu Gaochi really thought so.

But now that he understood the inside story and knew why Yang Shiqi did such an inappropriate thing, he couldn't help but hesitate.

There are so many people in the court who support him and adore him.

It is rare to see so many people who can face Yang Shiqi directly and care about him like Yang Shiqi does. Especially what happened today made Zhu Gaochi have a deeper understanding of him.

Someone so loyal and caring about him.

He was sent to the imperial prison in this way, although it was not really an imperial prison.

But is it really good?
To be honest, Zhu Gaochi was really reluctant in his heart.

For a moment I didn't know how to answer this question and fell silent.

"puff……"

Seeing this, Zhu Gaoxu chuckled. He could probably guess what the prince was thinking. He also knew that he was hesitating and reluctant. He frowned and pondered for a moment, then said quietly:

“When Heaven bestows a great responsibility upon a man, it must first make him work hard and starve.”

"If jade is not polished, it cannot be made into a useful tool; if a man does not learn, he will not know the meaning of

"Remember... this is not about taking anyone's life."

"Boss..."

"That's all I have to say."

"As for the rest, we won't force you. You can choose for yourself."

"Just think about it clearly."

boom……

This statement came out.

It was like a loud thunder that suddenly exploded in the prince's mind, causing his expression to change.

Yes!

If jade is not carved, it cannot become a useful object; if people do not learn, they cannot know the righteousness of the world.

There is no doubt that Yang Shiqi is loyal and righteous, and there is no doubt about his ability and skills, but his temperament...

In a sense, he is indeed not calm and mature enough and needs to be polished.

If Yang Shiqi could temper his temper, then this person would definitely undergo a drastic change.

She is also able to shoulder heavy responsibilities and can truly share his worries.

"call……"

Just like that, after a long while, Zhu Gaochi came back to his senses from his daze, exhaled a long breath, turned his head and looked at Zhu Gaoxu with deep eyes, then retracted his gaze to Yang Shiqi who was kneeling on the ground, his expression gradually softened, and he said in a deep voice:
"Shiqi..."

"Don't you want to know what we are planning with the King of Han?"

"I can tell you."

"But once you know something, there is no turning back."

"Then starting today, you will have to spend at least one or two years in this dark and cold imperial prison."

"What's worse... maybe you will never be able to step out of this prison in your lifetime."

"I just don't know if you have the determination and are willing to do so?"

"I will give you the opportunity to choose for yourself."

"Think it over and answer me!!"

Yang Shiqi was slightly stunned when he heard this, and stood there in shock.

Will you have to stay in the imperial prison for a year or two at the least, or even a lifetime?

What happened in the end?
It took him a long time to come back to his senses, and he couldn't help feeling bitter. It seemed that he had been given the opportunity to choose, but he was not stupid. After coming here, did he really have any choice?

is it possible?
Yang Shiqi didn't dare to gamble, nor did he dare to believe it. He bowed respectfully without any hesitation:
"I am willing."

"Your Highness, please grant me your blessing."
