3.6

When Zhou Yunsheng was recruited to the East Palace, the Crown Prince was standing in front of a huge mirror, surveying his body with an obscure and inscrutable gaze.

He took off his brocade robe and blasphemous clothes, and only wore a single pair of blasphemous pants. The muscles on his back and chest were very strong, and the lines were beautiful and smooth; the two mermaid lines were hidden into his crotch, setting off his neatly arranged and tight abdominal muscles, and his bronze-colored skin exuded luminescence under the sunlight. This is a body full of explosive force and seductive power, just one glance can make people deeply fascinated.

The two palace maids holding the Crown Prince’s robes had long been blushing with shame, but they couldn’t help but secretly cast their burning gazes over.

Zhou Yunsheng froze, then immediately bowed and saluted, not daring to look at him more. He liked strong and handsome men, and the Crown Prince happened to be the type he appreciated the most.

“There you are,” the Crown Prince dismissed the palace attendants and spoke slowly while stroking his abs, “Do you think this physique can be considered perfect?”

Zhou Yunsheng glanced quickly and nodded in reply.

The crown prince laughed coldly, “It’s a pity that the exterior is perfect, but the interior has already been corrupted.” Speaking here, the hidden violence, hatred, despair, madness and other negative emotions in his eyes were released, layers and layers of them squeezed into the air, causing people to be unable to breathe.

Zhou Yunsheng closed his eyes and said in a warm voice, “If Your Highness can give up the cold food powder and take care of it for a few years, the body still has the possibility of recovery.”

“Just maybe?” The Crown Prince put on his outer robe and walked over slowly, the height difference of ten centimeters and his innate powerful aura made Zhou Yunsheng feel slightly uncomfortable.

“If you don’t abstain it will be equivalent to drinking hemlock to quench your thirst, after serving five years Your Highness will surely die.” Zhou Yunsheng had to take two steps back, leaving the range of his hormonal radiation.

The Crown Prince was silent for a long time before he finally waved his hand and said, “Then quit.”

Zhou Yunsheng bowed and made a bow, pleading, “In that case, I will ask Your Highness to grant an oracle stating that no matter how disrespectful I am to you during the period of abstinence from medication, I will not be punished for my sins.”

The Prince did not answer, but only surveyed him with a deep and inscrutable gaze.

Zhou Yunsheng added, “If you, Your Highness, are in an accident, I will accompany Your Highness to the Yellow Springs.” The words fell as he raised his head and looked over with a gaze as clear as water.

The crown prince seemed to be impressed by him, the frost strewn face slightly warm, a few moments later nodded and said, “Take pen, ink, paper and inkstone.”

Half a year passed in a flash, and on this day, Zhou Yunsheng untied the silk belt binding the crown prince’s limbs and exhaled a mouthful of turbid air.

“How does Your Highness feel?” He applied the ointment delicately to the man’s red, swollen, festering wrist.

The Prince rested his hand on his knee, staring at his gentle movements without comment. How does it feel? From strong to weak, it was naturally a very difficult feeling, not to mention what kind of bone-breaking pain he had experienced in half a year. But compared to the heavy body, his mind was unprecedentedly clear, reviewing all the past one by one, it was like waking up from a dream and returning to the world.

“How many years do I have left to live?” He knew in his heart that even if he abstained from the medicinal properties, he feared that it would still be a hindrance to his longevity.

“I don’t know about the micro-minister. But with proper maintenance, there should be no harm.”

“Well maintained? How can you settle down and take care of yourself when you’re in Lone’s position?” The Crown Prince laughed in a low voice, his eyes filled with mockery.

Zhou Yunsheng had nothing to say, bowed and bowed to leave. Sanity back to normal Prince is far more difficult to get along with than the Prince of madness, in the past, although he is uncertain of joy and anger, but at least you can still see one or two emotions, today has been as deep as the sea of ancient wells, even if the heart of the heart and how the ups and downs of uncertainty, but also do not show the slightest clue.

Just like the polished and completed world-class sword, convergence of the sharpness but kills in the invisible. This half a year, he claimed to be sick and secluded in the East Palace, not only to the bitter trick to reclaim the favor of the Emperor Tianchen, but also the layout of the second, third and fourth prince of the successive mistakes and frequent stupefaction, in the dynasty prestige greatly reduced, the rest of the Prince by the impact of the honesty of a lot of Benben.

He seems to have changed back to the old wise and powerful Crown Prince, but only Zhou Yunsheng knows that his heart has changed, and all the benevolence has turned into dust that dissipates in the wind, leaving only hatred to fill his heart.

The prince saw him and his own more and more raw, expression some gloomy, also do not call him up, Xu said, “your father and son two choose to serve for lone, but did not expect lone is a half-dead person, I am afraid that can not protect the Shen family a hundred years of glory.”

“Your Highness is the rightful ruler of the Great Zhou, it is only right to serve Your Highness.” Zhou Yunsheng hung his head and arched his hand. Now even he could not guess the mind of the Crown Prince, so he had to say less and be less wrong, lest he be killed by the Crown Prince before his mission was completed. Although his soul is immortal, this shell of Shen Yi Bin will die.

The Prince wasn’t sure exactly what answer he wanted from the other man. Did he want a big show of loyalty? Or to swear to the heavens that his help for himself was not for selfish purposes, but came entirely from his heart? That no matter who he was or what position he was in, he would always be there for him?

Why should he? And why does he have to be treated as he is?

The crown prince could not understand, fixedly looked at him for a long time, then waved his hand to send him out.

“In the future, you may call Lone Snyder.”

Zhou Yunsheng had just walked to the door when he heard a deep, husky voice ring out behind him. Shi Nian? These two words caused him to jolt fiercely, turning suddenly to look back.

“A hot scenic calendar, billions of years. This is the word of Lone. Do you have a word?” The Prince raised his jaw.

“Yun Sheng, microcosmic word Yun Sheng.” He stared dead at the pale and haggard-faced man.

“Yun Sheng, seems to have heard of it before.” The Crown Prince looked stunned.

Zhou Yunsheng almost wanted to run over and tug on his lapels, asking after him when he had heard of it, but he pressed down in time. That person was just a string of data, death meant disappearing forever, how could he possibly follow him? Moreover, how could S’nian have heard of the name Zhou Yunsheng?

He forcibly suppressed the throbbing in his heart and said cautiously, “Your Highness don’t worry, your body will definitely get better, the micro minister will definitely think of a way.” Although this world didn’t have any elixir, but the female lead had a spiritual spring there that made people wash their marrow and shed their bones, sooner or later he would think of a way to get it for the crown prince.

The young man’s eyes were so clear, and his tone so firm, as if these words were his beliefs, and would be carried out by him throughout his life. The prince suddenly felt that even if he had selfish motives for joining him, as long as he stood here, it was already enough.

“Your words, Lone remembered. As long as there is Lone, there will be the Shen family.”

Zhou Yunsheng wanted exactly what the Shen family stood for, smiled gratefully at the Crown Prince, bowed and retreated.

—————-

Three years later.

Prince lingering sickbed, this day finally well, but the body is much thinner, the skin has become as pale as paper, only a pair of eyes deep bottomless, a pair of thin lips scarlet like blood, without saying a word stood there will let a person feel depressing for no reason.

He is no longer as uncertain as in the past, took over a few piles of errands sent by the emperor of Tianchen, up and down the point of very beautiful, even if there are people who do not want to eye staring also can not catch the slightest handle. Tianchen Emperor examined a few months, finally completely put down his heart.

On this day, the two rivers area was flooded by torrential rains, flooding countless cities and towns along the way, causing the people to lose their homes, and they were unable to keep their heads above water. The courtiers have to report this matter, requesting Emperor Tianchen to make a decision. Emperor Tianchen thought about it and appointed the Crown Prince and the Seventh Prince to go to the two rivers to deal with the matter.

Because of the Prince’s hot hand, a few princes are he fixed can not turn over, only filial piety and respect for the humble seventh prince escaped a disaster. If you can do a good job on this errand, you can show your face in front of Emperor Tianchen.

The seventh prince was extremely happy in his heart, and on the surface he obeyed the crown prince, but when he went back, he discussed with several wise men how to stand out.

Zhou Yunsheng, who had been promoted to the Ministry of Public Works at that time, was also among the accompanying.

Several people dusty to the two rivers, the flood is still raging, as the governor of the two rivers Yu Baotian personally to the disaster area to pacify the people to inspect the disaster, heard the Prince driving, and quickly set up a banquet in the official residence hospitality.

Said it is a banquet is an exaggeration, but a broken round table, a few missing dishes and cold steamed buns and a few pickles, if there is no tea to serve, really can’t get down the mouth.

As soon as the Crown Prince saw this mat, his expression clouded over, but the Seventh Prince was at peace.

Yu Baotian pretended not to know, respectfully gave the crown prince a cold hard steamed bun and a few shredded vegetables, said, “Because of the flooding and road blockage, this Koon City is already out of food, really can not find a good wine for your highness to accompany the meal, please your highness do not blame.”

Due to quit the cold food, the Prince has not been a long time to drink, but in the eyes of the world, he is still the previous alcohol-free and unrestrained Prince. Yu Baotian is a man of integrity, the Prince’s unruly quite a few words, so several times on the petition to abolish the Crown Prince, can be regarded as a thorn in the Prince’s side.

These two did not see eye to eye with each other, and as soon as they arrived, they were secretly pitted against each other.

The crown prince’s face was expressionless, but a few hints of hostility surfaced in his eyes.

The seventh prince did not say a word, only waiting for the crown prince to make trouble. Yu Baotian is a capable minister of the Great Zhou Yi, and is the heart of Emperor Tian Chen, this disaster relief is important, if the crown prince came to punish the most capable assistant, this errand must be done badly. In this way, his opportunity to get out of the way has arrived.

The Crown Prince put down his chopsticks with a snap and was about to speak when his left hand, which was placed under the table, was gripped by a warm and delicate palm. His mind was slightly shaken, but his face did not show any sign of it, only glancing quickly at Zhou Yunsheng who was sitting beside him.

Three years past, the teenager has just been crowned, his features have grown a little, more and more appear to be like a crown of jade, beautiful, a pair of sparkling water eyes quietly handed a little peace and quiet eyes, so that his heart trembled at the same time only felt itchy – itchy – intolerable.

Backhand will be that hand hold, gently squeeze, the Prince slowly spoke, “Yu adults are not in the capital, since I do not know lone has been abstaining from alcohol for several years. Now the people are suffering, I feel the same, that is, not to quit drinking is also like a fish in the throat, food tasteless. I can still eat a few cold buns, do not know that the people have long been to the point of easy to eat. This table noodles withdrawn it, first lone brought food distribution to the states and counties before. Saving people is like putting out a fire, there can’t be a moment’s delay.”

Yu Baotian was stunned, completely unable to believe that these words were coming from the mouth of the extravagant crown prince. The Seventh Prince also stared blankly at his elder brother.

While the two were dumbfounded, the Crown Prince picked up two steamed buns, one handing it to Zhou Yunsheng, and one taking it himself and eating it as he walked away, his back hasty.
