Liu Boxuan trembled slightly, and a strange brilliance suddenly burst out from his slender eyes.
He grabbed Xiao Yu's arm, and the strength in his hand subconsciously increased a bit: "The prince's words are true!"
Xiao Yu couldn't help but let out a sigh when he felt the pain in his arm.
When Liu Boxuan saw this, he quickly let go of his hand. He looked frightened and quickly lowered his head to apologize.
"Don't worry, Uncle Liu Shi... everything I said is true."
At this time, Xiao Yu looked up at the cold moon in the sky. This desolate courtyard was not the place to talk, and his stomach rumbled again, "Uncle Liu Shi, it's cold outside, let's go inside and talk!"
"I was so arrogant just now. I actually forgot that the prince is a man of gold, and gold is as noble as jade..." Liu Boxuan handed over his hand and wanted to bow again.
"What kind of body is there? Uncle Shi, I'm just a prisoner. Don't bow to me again and again! I'm not the Sanqing Master in the temple. I just think it's a bit cold outside..." Xiao Yu Shrinking his neck and smiling helplessly, he turned around and greeted again: "Manager Zhao, get us some food. Am I still hungry now?"
The old man nodded quickly and went to work in another shabby room next door.
Then the two of them walked into the broken room where Manager Zhao slept one after another. This was the first time Xiao Yu came in consciously.
The furnishings here are also very shabby. There is at least a low couch with a straw mat in my room, but here there is only a pile of broken straw and a few broken wooden stakes used as stools.
Xiao Yu stood for a long time not knowing where to sit. He saw that Liu Boxuan had moved two broken wooden stakes and placed them next to Xiao Yu and himself, so the two sat down opposite each other.
"My young prince, I really condescend to wrong you." Liu Boxuan's words revealed an indescribable emotion.
"It's nothing... at least I have a decent bed over there..." Xiao Yu said silently, "In the event of a disaster, I will be a hundred times stronger here than my father in Jiankang Palace."
"By the way, little prince, what's the prince's current situation like!" Liu Boxuan subconsciously raised his buttocks and leaned towards Xiao Yu.
So Xiao Yu told Liu Boxuan from beginning to end the process of entering the palace yesterday and what he saw and heard.
Hearing Liu Boxuan break out in a cold sweat, he hurriedly said: "Although the prince of Jiangxia is fine for the moment, who knows if the foolish king will come up with other tricks to torture the prince... This matter cannot be delayed. I will wait as soon as possible." We need to find a way to rescue the prince."
This is easier said than done. Once action is taken, it will definitely be rebellion. But the Liu Shishu in front of him has a serious face. It seems that he is not just talking, but he seems to have a plan in his heart.
But Xiao Yu's mind was not stable at this time. Although he had the intention to rescue his father, he would not rashly participate in some people's plans. At this time, he just smiled helplessly and glanced at the handsome man with a sad face opposite him. .
"Uncle Liu Shi, right now I am a clay Buddha and cannot save myself when crossing the river. Some things need long-term consideration."
"What the young prince said is absolutely true. Although I am anxious, I will not act rashly!"
Xiao Yu nodded slowly. At this moment, he also saw that although Liu Boxuan had grand words, he did not think of any good ideas, he was just trying to make his heart easier.
He sighed softly and then changed the subject.
"Thanks to meeting the eldest princess Yongning yesterday, otherwise my father would really be roasted on the fire now."
In Xiao Yu's mind, Xiao Yuwan's beautiful and graceful figure suddenly jumped into view.
Liu Boxuan seemed to understand something on Xiao Yu's face, and he immediately poured a basin of cold water on it.
"Hmph, is that temptress really so kind? She must have other intentions!" The bearded man said disapprovingly.
"Why did Uncle Shi say this? It was indeed the father she saved. Why do you still want to slander her as a witch?" Xiao Yu asked in confusion.
"Slander? Haha... Little Prince, you have been locked up in this claustrophobic place all day long, so naturally you don't know what's going on outside, let alone the rumors about that witch."
"Rumors? What rumors?"
Liu Boxuan glanced at Xiao Yu, who looked curious, and then turned his attention elsewhere. He smiled helplessly: "The young prince is young and not experienced in the world, so he will inevitably be confused by female sex. Don't be fooled by her good at bewitching. The appearance of people's hearts is deceived. You must know that the temptress is the best at discerning people's hearts, especially those who are greedy for her beauty. From the emperor's relatives to ordinary people, few people can escape her charming mind. Of charm."
After hearing this, for some reason, Xiao Yu suddenly felt an indescribable sense of gap in his heart, and that sense of gap made him feel a little depressed intentionally or unintentionally.
"It seems that the young prince has a good impression of this beautiful princess."
"That's true... that's not true." Xiao Yu said with evasive eyes, "This is the first time I met her."
"It's common for a young man to have his first love after seeing such a beautiful woman, but young prince, you must not be deceived by her again. Don't forget your current situation and the prince who is trapped in the palace."
"I understand, Uncle Liu Shi, I will remember your words." Xiao Yu lowered his head and said silently.
Liu Boxuan clearly noticed that Xiao Yu seemed to be resistant to his kindness. The young man was full of blood and it was okay to be impulsive. All he can do is follow the lead.
"Hey... If it were an ordinary beautiful woman, I wouldn't say anything. It's just that Princess Yongning looks dignified and noble, but in fact she has a heart of snakes and scorpions. It is said that her favorite young man, the consort Pan Duo, is a first-rate handsome man. But she kept another three hundred beautiful young men at home for her pleasure, but the prince-in-law only dared to be angry but dared not speak out. She also caused trouble in the palace for a long time, and often bewitched the king with her strange fragrance. When he entered the palace, he would be like that foolish king. Sleeping on the pillow, those horrifying and absurd tragedies were all committed by her sister and brother... And none of the important officials in the former dynasty could escape her charming skills. Now the government is in ruins and officials are alienated, it is precisely because of this woman! That's it! Daji and Baosi would not be as good as this witch in this world."
I don't know why, even though Liu Boxuan persuaded him so earnestly, the light and graceful figure still lingered in his heart.
Could it be that he was really obsessed with this beautiful princess? No, no matter what, they couldn't. After all, she was his cousin, and his good impression of her should only exist because of the grace of saving his father that day.
"Uncle Liu Shi, thank you for your reminder. Maybe you misunderstood. No matter what, she is still my imperial sister. I have an indescribable affection for her, but that does not exist in the relationship between men and women." Xiao Yu said lightly. said.
"It's good that the young prince knows it in his heart, but that temptress may not be as pure and simple as the young prince. Her charming way never distinguishes between people."
Xiao Yu didn't want to mention this stunningly beautiful princess anymore, he was eager to change the topic.
"By the way, Second Uncle Liu, I have indeed been crazy for a while in the past few years. I really don't know what is going on outside. I woke up a little bit yesterday and was recruited into the palace by the emperor Xiao Yuheng."
"We can learn about the current situation slowly, and we are not in a hurry. But so far, after communicating with the young prince, I have a lot of confusion in my heart and I don't know how to ask."
"Uncle Liu Shi, please tell me."
"It stands to reason... the young prince unfortunately got this mad disease that year, and he should be eight years old now. Even if the young prince has such a vigorous body, even if he is young and mature, his mental aspect should be..."
Liu Boxuan was embarrassed when he said this and didn't know what to say.
Xiao Yu smiled slightly, and he understood the beard's doubts. This man with a rough appearance was indeed extremely thoughtful in his heart.
But how should I explain it? According to common sense, my IQ should be that of a ten-year-old child at best. After traveling through time, my eighteen-year-old body contained a thirty-year-old soul.
"Uncle Liu Shi's worries are indeed reasonable, but please don't worry, Uncle Shi. Do you think my mind is like that of a ten-year-old child?"
Liu Boxuan's face suddenly flashed with a look of realization. In his eyes, this young prince was as wise and heroic as the prince of Jiangxia.
"Could it be that...could it be said that this is all Tao Hui's strategy?"
In Liu Boxuan's eyes, the young prince in front of him had quite the spirit of the prince of Jiangxia, so he fell to the ground and worshiped: "I am stupid and don't know the secret strategies of the young prince over the years. I just realized today that the young prince is really wise and powerful. Comparable to ordinary people."
Xiao Yu didn't expect that Liu Boxuan would think that he was pretending to be crazy during the years, but since someone understood it this way, he didn't need to explain it anymore.
"Get up quickly, Uncle Liu Shi!"
I saw Liu Boxuan smiling happily with a face: "The Prince of Jiangxia is lucky, and I, Daqi Sheji, are lucky. As long as the young prince is here, I think there will be hope to help Sheji in the future. I will return to Jingxiang's hometown and contact the prince's old subordinates. , when the time comes, I will definitely rescue the prince and create my great power again!"
