At that time, the drunken late Emperor had uttered many strange words. Chu You also did not understand and only treated it as drunken words.
After a pause, Chu You calmed himself down and continued, “It wasn’t until after my Imperial Grandfather passed away that my father realized that there were a few missing handwritten notes. He couldn’t announce it, so he silently sent someone to search Yangxin Hall, but he still couldn’t find it. He thought that my Imperial Grandfather had destroyed a portion of the handwritten notes before he passed away.”
“If those notes were not destroyed but discovered by my brother…”
Chu You opened his eyes and turned to walk down the hunting platform, unable to stand it anymore.
“Your Highness, calm down.” Yuan Zhe pressed down on Chu You’s wrist and tried his best to persuade him to stop.
Chu You raised his sharp eyebrows, and his eyes were sharp.
Yuan Zhe casually tidied the creases in his sleeves and calmly pointed at the most luxurious shed below. He said indifferently, “There must be someone more anxious than you.”
His tone was meaningful, but he was not referring to Chu Yi. Instead, he was talking about Baili Yin, who was drinking beside Chu Yi.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtChu You narrowed his eagle eyes and also looked at Baili Yin thoughtfully.
The power of the new flintlock would definitely make Baili Yin wary. The State of Yue was ambitious, so how could they sit back and watch the Great Jin own such a divine weapon?
Baili Yin would make a move sooner or later!
“Therefore, there’s no hurry, Your Highness.” Yuan Zhe patted Chu You’s shoulder. A confident smile appeared on his refined face, and his eyes suddenly flashed with a cold light. “The Eldest Prince has been in the State of Yue for eight years. This is his merit and his greatest weakness.”
“If the Eldest Prince makes any mistakes, whether intentionally or unintentionally, it will be a serious crime.”
Chu Yi had served the country in the State of Yue for eight years. Therefore, both the courtiers and the commoners had to remember his sacrifices over the past eight years.
However, this was also a stain that Chu Yi, the Eldest Prince, could never erase!
Yuan Zhe casually waved his sleeve and stood with his hands behind his back. His every move was confident and calm.
With Yuan Zhe’s pointers, Chu You returned to his senses, and his heart immediately lit up.
When he looked down at Chu Yi again, his eyes were filled with mockery.
“I’m afraid you’ve miscalculated this time…” Chu You said as he gently rubbed the nine dragon patterns on the jade pendant by his waist with the pad of his index finger. The corners of his lips curled up.
The Emperor had asked Chu Yi to replace him to entertain Baili Yin. He naturally had his own plans and wanted to pave the way for Chu Yi.
However, if this plan was not handled well, it might backfire.
Chu Yi had been in the State of Yue for so long. If anything went wrong with his errand this time, they could impeach Chu Yi for sacrificing the benefits of the Great Jin and flattering the State of Yue.
Neither the courtiers nor the commoners understood Chu Yi.
The gap created by the missing eight years in the past was not easy to bridge!
Seeing that Kang Wang had calmed down, Yuan Zhe was relieved. He stroked his sleeve and smiled again, then said seriously, “This situation is beneficial to you, Your Highness.”
“The Eldest Prince is in the limelight today because he wants to gain a foothold as soon as possible.”
In Yuan Zhe’s opinion, the Eldest Prince was really too young and rash. He should have hidden a weapon like the new flintlock and secretly mass-produced it as soon as possible to become their trump card.
In that case, it was the best solution.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, the Eldest Prince was clearly anxious and wanted to establish himself in the royal court as soon as possible. That was why he made such a stupid move. He even took out this new flintlock to show it off. He was really trying to impress the crowd!
In the end, it only aroused the vigilance and covetous eyes of the people from the State of Yue!
How stupid and short-sighted.
Sigh, the Eldest Prince had indeed been raised to be useless by the people of the State of Yue. Yuan Zhe sighed faintly in his heart.
As Yuan Zhe spoke unhurriedly, Chu You completely calmed down. He let out a long breath of relief and nodded. “Cousin is right.”
“It’s all thanks to my cousin’s advice.”
Chu You cupped his hands at Yuan Zhe.
Yuan Zhe smiled faintly. After receiving Chu You’s bow, he was neither arrogant nor anxious. He naturally had the extraordinary bearing of a descendant of an aristocratic family.
The mountain wind was still howling beside him, and the chill was bone-chilling.
Occasionally, a few broken leaves would be blown over by the mountain wind and fly around the hunting platform.
Yuan Zhe gently brushed away a remnant leaf that had fallen on his shoulder and reminded him, “Your Highness, Emperor Taizu’s handwritten letter is secondary.”
He was also worried that Chu You would be confused by the immediate benefits and forget their longer-term goals.
