Shen Yu tilted her head, "Your Majesty, just ask. Don't touch me."
Shang Junlin pinched Shen Yu's neck and let go. He said honestly, "I like to touch A Yu. Does A Yu like it?"
Shen Yu blushed. She looked down and didn't say anything.
Shang Junlin was worried that he would scare her away if he teased her too much, so he changed the topic, "Prince Yue has been clamoring to see me."
"Prince Yue?" Shen Yu looked up, "What does he want?"
"He said that he is innocent. He hopes that I will find out the truth and clear his name." Shang Junlin's eyes darkened when he mentioned Prince Yue.
"What about the people behind Prince Yue? Nothing happened? "Shen Yu remembered that Shang Junlin said that the late Emperor left many good things for Prince Yue.
"It's strange. The He family didn't do anything after they came to the capital. It seems that they are just here to have fun." Shang Junlin ordered the Hidden Dragon Guards to keep an eye on the situation in the capital, "I thought they would do something."
"What about Young Master He?" Shen Yu pondered. It would be fine if Young Master He did something, but if he didn't do anything, it would be unsettling.
"Everything is as usual." Ever since the prison break, Shang Jun Lin had become even stricter with the Young Master He. If there was a chance in the past to secretly rescue him, there was no chance of that happening now.
"Don't worry." Shang Junlin walked to Shen Yu and pulled her into his arms. He kissed her neck, "I will take care of it."
"The He family won't come to the capital for no reason. Since they are here, they will definitely do something." Shen Yu stopped thinking about it. Worrying wouldn't solve the problem.
"A Yu said that Xing is right."
In the He family's courtyard.
"Father, are we really not doing anything?" Young Master He didn't look good, "My brother is missing. We came to the capital but didn't tell us what to do. Does Xing think that it is fun to walk us around?"
"I'm also worried about your brother." Patriarch He knew where his youngest son was. Wasn't he worried? That was the Star Dark Prison. No matter who went there, they would lose a layer of skin. But what was the use of being anxious? Could it be that he could still break into the prison?
"I don't think so," Eldest Young Master He said coldly, "If Xing was really worried, father should have asked around for brother's whereabouts after coming to the capital. But what did father do? He warned us to behave ourselves, not to reveal our identities, and not to do anything. "
"I naturally have my reasons for doing this," Patriarch He said helplessly.
"What reason could there be? What's more important than finding my brother? " Eldest Young Master He was dissatisfied. "I don't think Father has any intention of looking for my younger brother. Father, you don't want a star. Give me some men and I'll go look for a star myself."
"Shut up!" Patriarch He was so angry that he was trembling. "What did my Star say before we came? Be careful. The capital is not like home. If you are not careful, you will make a big mistake. Stay here. Without my orders, you are not allowed to step out of the courtyard! "
Eldest Young Master He couldn't believe it. "Father!"
"You don't have to worry about your brother. I said that I can bring him back this time!" Patriarch He flung his sleeves and walked away.
Eldest Young Master He stood in the courtyard and slowly clenched his fists.
"Young Master?" The servant walked forward.
Eldest Young Master and Youngest Young Master were born from the same mother. They had a good relationship since they were young. If Youngest Young Master went missing, Eldest Young Master would be the most anxious. He finally had some clues but was told not to act rashly. How could he accept that?
"If father doesn't want to look for him, I'll go. You," Eldest Young Master He pointed at the servant. "Bring our men and secretly ask around. Remember, don't make too big of a commotion and don't let father's men find out."
"Xing." The servant replied and left.
Eldest Young Master He's actions were considered secretive. However, he couldn't hide from the Hidden Dragon Guards. The moment he made a move, the news was sent to the palace.
"Eldest Young Master He is very close to his younger brother." Shen Yu flipped through the letter. "It seems that Patriarch He didn't tell Eldest Young Master about his younger son. Xing probably thinks that Eldest Young Master is not reliable. Even if he hid it, he would cause trouble."
"Xing gave us a loophole. We might be able to find out something through Eldest Young Master He."
Shen Yu thought so too.
"I plan to meet King Yue. A Yu, do you want to come along?" Shang Junlin asked.
Shen Yu nodded. Shen Yu was quite interested to see King Yue in trouble.
The beginning of spring had passed and the weather was getting warmer. Shen Yu took off his thick winter coat and wore a blue casual outfit. He looked even more handsome.
When he met King Yue again, he didn't look as elegant as he usually did. If King Yue was rated seven points in the past, he would only be rated four points now.
His hair was messy and his face was pale. His eyes were sunken and he looked dispirited.
King Yue stared blankly at the tall figure approaching with the jade-like young man. Shen Yu was more charming than when he first met him. Shang Junlin took good care of him. His complexion was ruddy and his face was chubbier. He wasn't as thin as before and his temperament was more restrained.
Seeing the two people getting closer and closer, King Yue didn't know why but a strange feeling rose in his heart. It was as if something important had left him and there was no possibility of it returning.
He opened his mouth but the words he wanted to say were stuck in his throat. He couldn't make a sound for a long time.
"How can you not salute Your Majesty?"
While he was in a daze, the jailer couldn't stand it and scolded him harshly.
King Yue recovered from his trance and noticed Shang Junlin's arm around Shen Yu's waist.
He stared at the arm as if he wanted to dig a hole in it.
Noticing his gaze, Shang Junlin quietly tightened his arm and let Shen Yu get closer to him.
Under the watchful eyes of the jailer, King Yue reluctantly saluted them.
"Greetings to Your Majesty, Your Majesty."
King Yue knocked his forehead on the ground for a long time but didn't hear Shang Junlin's voice. He raised his head slightly and looked up.
Shang Junlin looked down at him with no emotion in his eyes. It was as if he wasn't looking at Xing but at an inconspicuous ant at his feet.
Xing was like this again.
Xing was like this again!
King Yue tensed his body and didn't allow himself to lose his composure.
In the past, he was Imperial Father's favorite prince. Everyone tried to curry favor with him. Shang Junlin was only Xing's son who was disliked by Imperial Father. No one in the palace took him seriously. Even the powerful eunuchs and palace maids could step on him. However, it was Shang Junlin like Xing who sat on the position they all dreamed of and became the biggest winner.
Shen Yu looked at King Yue who was kneeling on the ground. He saw his unwillingness, but so what? In this life, he was destined to carry his unwillingness to the end of his life. He would find that no matter how hard he tried, Shang Junlin was still a towering mountain in front of him. He couldn't cross it.
Thinking of this, Shen Yu chuckled softly.
His laughter broke the frozen atmosphere. Shang Junlin looked at King Yue for a while and said, "I heard that you threatened to see me with your life?"
King Yue was embarrassed. Once upon a time, he was the one who was superior to Shang Junlin. Every dog has its day. Today, in front of Shen Yu, his position was reversed.
He couldn't say. His star was angry purely because Shang Junlin was one rank lower, and his star was angry because this situation happened in front of Shen Yu. Even though so much time had passed, he still couldn't forget that first startled glimpse and the first throbbing of his heart.
He really wanted to straighten his back and be a little more strong-willed, but now that he had a favor to ask of someone, he couldn't.
"I want to ask Your Majesty to give me justice. What the military officer did really has nothing to do with me. I beg Your Majesty to judge clearly!" He could only kneel in front of Shang Junlin and beg him to let him go this time.
In front of Shen Yu.
King Yue clenched his teeth tightly. His heart was burning. He must take back his position. The one who had the last laugh must be him!
"I know."
A cold voice came from the top of his head. King Yue looked up in disbelief, "Your Majesty knows why you still …"
His voice gradually disappeared, and his face became more and more ugly.
King Yue was not stupid. He thought carefully. Since Shang Junlin knew that he was wronged, why did he let the rumors spread and even spread to his ears?
There was only one possibility — —
"You did it on purpose!" King Yue could no longer maintain his calm appearance, "Why did you do it? You know that I didn't do these things. Why did you put the blame on me? "
"You didn't do this, but what about those women?" Shen Yu looked at him coldly.
King Yue looked at Shen Yu in astonishment, "You did it?"
Shen Yu avoided the question, "Your people went to cause trouble for the Residence of Northern Marquis. Xing found the right person."
In the eyes of the outside world, Shen Yu and the Residence of Northern Marquis were inseparable. As the legitimate son of Northern Marquis, the relationship between the two was bound together. When Shen Yu entered the palace, many people laughed at Northern Marquis for sending his legitimate son into the palace. Now, many people felt that Northern Marquis was far-sighted. So what if he was the legitimate son? Who could be so lucky to be favored by His Majesty alone?
"Why did you do this?" King Yue was so shocked that he moved forward a few steps, "Are you still angry with me? There is nothing between me and Shen Qingran. I only looked for him because …"
"King Yue, be careful with your words." Without waiting for him to finish, Shang Junlin interrupted him coldly.
Feeling the strength around his waist increasing, Shen Yu reached out and patted the big palm on his waist to comfort him. When he turned to look at King Yue, there was only coldness in his eyes.
"King Yue, don't talk nonsense. We have nothing to do with each other. You don't need to tell me about your relationship with Shen Qingran. I don't care. Whoever you are with has nothing to do with me. Do you understand?"
The young man's voice was as cold as ice. The biting cold air was like an ice blade cutting through the skin and spreading from the outside to the inside. For a moment, King Yue almost felt that his heart was frozen.
Once again, he deeply realized that he had completely lost Shen Yu.
No, he didn't get it from the beginning. How could he lose it?
King Yue smiled bitterly, "You gave Xin Xing to those women? How do you know this? "
"When you hid your identity to get close to me, you also used the same method to get close to others. Did you really think that I didn't know anything?" Shen Yu answered carelessly.
King Yue collapsed, "So you knew from the beginning that I approached you with a purpose?"
Shen Yu didn't answer. In King Yue's eyes, Xing Xing had acquiesced.
"I thought that we had feelings for each other. I was sad for a long time because of what happened in the past …" King Yue murmured in a low voice.
What happened in the past? Shen Yu suddenly remembered how Xing Xing, who was disgusted by his previous life, was disgusted. He was silent.
Shang Junlin also thought of something. He looked sideways at Shen Yu and intimately stroked the hair on his temples, "Speaking of which, in terms of seniority, King Yue should call A Yu Imperial Sister-in-law Cai Xing."
King Yue felt as if he was struck by lightning.
