Be Stupid and Live a Hundred Years
No background?
Who would believe that he had a group of loyal subordinates?
However, it also showed that he was not a simple person.
Jing Rong did not want to blow up the matter. Moreover, Wei Yi was just frightened and would recover after two days of rest.
That brat should taste the consequences of throwing a tantrum.
Fang Mingsan bowed. "Your Highness, do you want this official to …"
Punish Yun Tongyang!
Jing Rong interrupted him before he could finish.
"You just need to order people to guard this courtyard and take care of Young Master Wei. Don't let him run around."
"Yes!"
Jing Rong leaned towards her and whispered in her ear, "This Prince has already sent people to the Chang and Li Residences as repayment for warming this Prince's bed."
Ji Yunshu was speechless.
She glared at him fiercely.
"You've been tired for two days. Hurry back to the courtyard and have a good rest. If you collapse from exhaustion, you won't be able to find out the truth of this case even if I give you ten days to half a month."
Without waiting for Ji Yunshu's reply, he pushed her towards Shi Zijin. "Take your master back to rest and guard the door. If she dares to come out, use the sword in your hand to break her legs!"
Ugh!
You're too cold, too cruel! "
Unfortunately …
Shi Zijin replied, "Yes!"
Yes, your sister.
Ji Yunshu's face turned green.
In the end, she was forcefully dragged away by Shi Zijin.
Afterwards, Jing Rong sent Fang Mingsan and the others away and called Shi Ziran to one side.
He asked in a low voice, "How are things in the capital?"
Shi Ziran replied solemnly, "It's just as Your Highness predicted. Zijin and I didn't even enter the city gates, but we already sensed Prince Yi's troops surrounding the perimeter of the city gates. It's not a brazen move. It seems like Prince Yi has already prepared for this. If Your Highness returns to the capital, they will definitely try to stop Your Highness from returning."
Just as expected!
Jing Rong furrowed his brows and his expression hardened. "Jing Yi's actions are expected, but …"
"What does Your Highness suspect?"
"This Prince has only just left the capital, yet he has already deployed his own secret guards. Isn't this too groundless?"
"Does Prince Yi have other plans?" Shi Ziran was puzzled.
Jing Rong's eyes darkened. "When the Crown Prince besieged the palace to commit regicide, the Eastern Palace's troops surrounded the entire Fuyang Hall. If Jing Yi wants to follow suit, it's not impossible."
"It can't be, Your Highness. Prince Yi doesn't have the guts to do that."
"If even the Crown Prince has the guts, why doesn't Jing Yi? What's more, he deployed his secret guards outside the capital. I'm sure he's preparing for a rainy day. If one day, father emperor's decision is not within his acceptable range, who knows, what happened in Fuyang Hall that year might turn into a siege of the capital to seize the throne. "
Besiege the capital and seize the throne!
It was shocking!
Even Shi Ziran, who had seen much of the world, was stunned.
Jing Rong could not understand what Jing Yi was afraid of.
It was a fact that the Crown Prince was an idiot. No matter how much the Emperor doted on him, Jing Hua would never be the one to ascend to the throne in the end. Moreover, Jing Hua could have been a good Prince Yi, waiting for the Crown Prince to be deposed, waiting for the Imperial Court to turn against him, and then crowned the heir apparent.
Isn't that good?
Can't he even wait for a few years?
Jing Hua was so heartless that he would rather kill a few of his own brothers than leave a way out for himself!
In the end, the Crown Prince died, and Jing Rong was forced to fight for the throne.
Now, it was a new path, a new situation.
Everything that happened today was caused by Jing Yi's so-called 'groundless fears' and 'preparation for a rainy day'.
Thinking of this, Jing Rong sighed.
He did not speak.
Shi Ziran said, "I've only left the capital to become a vegetarian for half a year. Why has the capital changed so much? It's really lively. "
He hugged the sword in his hand.
Jing Rong glanced at him. "Alright. In short, return to the capital every few days and gather information. Also, check if Jing Yi's secret guards have made any further moves. Keep me updated."
"Understood."
"Also, tell Lu Jiang not to keep an eye on Prince Yi's estate, in case Jing Yi finds out. As for the future arrangements, wait for this Prince's notice."
"Yes."
While the two of them were talking, Mo Ruo was in Wei Yi's room.
He sat on the edge of the bed and stared at the person lying on it.
He muttered, "You brat, you really have eight lifetimes' worth of good fortune! Miss Ji treats you so well. If you were still alive and met someone like her, you would either marry her or marry her. "
As he said this, he sighed regretfully. "I pity you silly brat. Even if a beauty is a dove, she won't be occupying your nest."
What a pity!
Although Wei Yi was sleeping on the bed, he looked like a lazy person sleeping soundly. He wriggled his body and rubbed against the blanket.
How adorable.
Mo Ruo tucked him in, got up, opened the door, closed the door, and went out.
Jing Rong and Shi Ziran had just finished talking.
"Since when did the two of you have a secret? You're just whispering to each other. "
Mo Ruo teased.
He did not forget to smile evilly. He narrowed his eyes at them, then sat down on a bench in the corridor outside. He propped his feet up and looked lazy.
Jing Rong waved his hand, signaling for Shi Ziran to leave. He walked over and kicked Mo Ruo's leg.
Mo Ruo almost fell to the side.
"What kind of medicine are you taking?"
He patted his robes and glared at him.
Jing Rong looked indifferent. "How is Wei Yi? Tell me the truth. "
"What truth? Didn't I tell you? He's just in shock. He'll be fine after two days of rest. "
"I want the truth!"
"That's the truth!"
Jing Rong's expression turned cold. "Mo Ruo, we grew up together. Others might not know if you're lying, but I do."
This feeling of being seen through was really unpleasant!
And so …
Mo Ruo took a deep breath.
He shrugged. "Fine, I'll tell you the truth." He sat up straight and looked straight at Jing Rong. "Do you know why Miss Ji sent Wei Yi to my Yuhua Pavilion?"
"To treat his illness."
"That's right."
"So?"
"Wei Yi's condition used to be very bad. I've been treating him for the past few months, and his condition has improved to the point that even I'm surprised. I still remember when he said that he had a headache. Then, I noticed that his condition was slowly improving. This time, it's not much different from the last time, but it also proves that he's getting better."
Jing Rong listened attentively.
He glanced at the closed door. "So, you're saying that he's not stupid anymore?"
Mo Ruo shook his head. "The line between being stupid and not being stupid is not clear. It's just the difference between knowing and not knowing. It can't be determined by the naked eye. There are two other ways to look at it. Either he's getting better, but he doesn't realize it, or he's pretending to be stupid. But the possibility of that is not high."
"Why do you say so?"
Mo Ruo laughed, not bothering to hide his mockery. "I say, Great Prince, you're obviously smarter than others, but you're still pretending to be stupid? Isn't that too ignorant?"
Jing Rong's expression darkened.
He retorted, "Sometimes, smart people don't necessarily live long. Dumb people live to a hundred years old."
F * ck!
