Chapter 234 Past events (10)
The closer Xi Jingzhi got to Shi Yunan, the faster his heart beat.
When he walked in front of him, he lowered his eyes and looked at the person he had been thinking about day and night.
Trying to act serious, he said, "Now that you've come to Beijing, why don't you come to see me?
Xi Jingzhi looked a little nervous and raised his hand, clenched it into a fist and placed it to his lips.
For some reason, when he saw Xi Jingzhi like this, Shi Yunan's anger dissipated a little, and he even felt like playing some tricks.
"Do we know each other?" Shi Yunan raised his eyebrows and said.
Xi Jingzhi's originally nervous expression suddenly froze. He bent down in disbelief and looked at Shi Yunan, as if he wanted to see a hint of truthfulness in the other's eyes.
However, he saw nothing.
Shi Yunan seemed to have really forgotten him.
"Of course I know him, how could I not know him? Don't you remember me?"
Xi Jingzhi had some injuries on his face, but he still held on.
At first, he didn't believe the words that the eldest son of the Wei family asked someone to bring to him.
Shi Yunan's whereabouts have been unknown since he separated from him. He has never given up looking for him over the years, but after so many years, there is still no news.
"Ahem, Your Highness the Crown Prince"
The servant brought by Xi Jingzhi finally rushed to the door. When he looked up, he found that his prince was so close to a strange man.
Xi Jingzhi turned around and looked at the person who spoke with an unhappy expression. Xi San's eyes widened and he looked at Shi Yunan with some disbelief.
This, this, this, this, isn't this the man who disguised himself as a woman and tried to deceive his Royal Highness the Crown Prince? !
How could he be here! Could it be that the prince finally knew about this?
Perhaps it was because the expression on Xi San's face was too wonderful, Xi Jingzhi's face flashed with suspicion, "What's wrong?"
"Reporting to His Royal Highness, no, nothing."
Xi Jingzhi frowned and said, "Speak!"
Xi San trembled violently and was about to say it out loud when a cold voice sounded.
"His Royal Highness"
Xi Jingzhi turned around and found that Shi Yunan had quietly distanced himself from him.
"I have something else to do in the palace, so I won't keep His Royal Highness as a guest."
After Shi Yunan finished speaking, he bowed and greeted the guest.
Wei Changyi felt only guilt at the moment, and had no idea that Shi Yunan was trying to drive the Crown Prince out.
Only Wei Changqing was coughing quietly beside him. He had never expected that An An would be so bold as to order the prince to expel him.
"An An..."
Xi Jingzhi frowned and was interrupted by Shi Yunan before he could finish his words.
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince, respects himself"
Shi Yunan's eyebrows were cold and he didn't even look at him.
Xi Jingzhi pursed his lips and looked at him for a while. When he found that Shi Yunan remained in this posture, he sighed.
Then, he left the Wei Mansion according to Shi Yunan's wishes.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came and left in a hurry, and he stayed in the Wei Mansion for less than a quarter of an hour.
"Little boy, ah," Wei Changyi sighed and ordered the butler to send some nourishing herbs and money to Shi Yunan.
"Uncle Wei, there's no need to be like this. I understood it when I was little."
Shi Yunan, who had already been observing Wei Changqing's every move, how could he not understand that it was he who had asked Xi Jingzhi to come over early in the morning.
It made sense and reasonable for them to adopt him first of all out of kindness, and secondly they allowed him to go to school with the same treatment as the legitimate son.
He has never suffered any hardship or injustice here, and the consequences now are his own responsibility.
Whether Wei Changyi took action or not, Shi Yunan would not resent him.
"Xiao Shi, you, you really are having an affair with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
Shi Yunan didn't have to die, and the happiest person was Wei Changsheng, and his gossip soul was burning at this moment.
Hearing this, Shi Yunan glanced down at Wei Changsheng, and in the other's expectant eyes, he calmly said: "No"
-
"My mother is looking for me?"
As soon as Xi Jingzhi's carriage entered the palace gate, it was stopped by Cuizhu, who was beside the queen.
"Yes, Your Highness."
Cuizhu bowed respectfully and said.
"I understand"
Afterwards, the carriage turned towards Kunning Palace.
Your Highness the Crown Prince has a handwritten order from the current emperor, which states that carriages are not allowed to stop at palace gates and can be driven through any palace without any worries.
"Mother"
Xi Jingzhi lowered his head and saluted.
"Jing'er is here, look up and let me see you. You haven't come to visit me for such a long time, and you look thinner."
The queen walked down from the seat with a look of heartache, raised her hands and gently touched Xi Jingzhi's face, her eyes full of heartache.
"Thank you for your concern, mother. I have been very busy lately."
Xi Jingzhi had a blank expression on his face, his eyes lowered, and he did not meet the Queen's gaze.
Looking at Jing'er's appearance, the queen sighed in her heart and silently moved her hand away.
"Jing'er, please sit down. Recently, the Queen Mother has taken a liking to several ladies. When the banquet is held, Jing'er must be present."
The queen said this and sat back in her original seat.
Cuiwei, another caring palace maid beside her, served her hot tea, and then poured a cup for Xi Jingzhi.
"Mother, I thought I had made myself clear."
A cold voice sounded, and the queen immediately became angry.
The hand painted with bright red nail polish slammed heavily on the table, and all the servants and maids present knelt on the ground, with their foreheads pressed tightly against the ground, not daring to say a word.
"Jing'er, are you going to disobey your mother?!"
"If this is what your Majesty wants to talk about this time, then I'm sorry I can't accompany you."
After Xi Jingzhi finished speaking, he stood up and left. The sound of a carriage gradually moving away could be heard.
The queen was so angry that she slammed the table again, and her carefully made long nails broke into pieces, with blood oozing out from her fingertips.
"Queen, please calm down!" Cuiwei saw this and quickly stood up to help the Queen treat her injuries.
Seeing this, the others also shouted, "Queen, calm down!"
"After all, it's better to keep the ones around you. After all, they will follow the wild nature of the outsiders."
The queen leaned back with her eyes closed, looking exhausted.
If she hadn't been unable to conceive again and could only have Xi Jingzhi as her child, would she have been so angry?
In the carriage, Xi Jingzhi also looked unhappy and gloomy.
The saying that once you enter the palace, it is like entering a deep sea is not false.
He and Shi Yunan grew up together. Both of them were adopted children. Although they were not biological children, they were better than biological children.
The early years were so good that Xi Jingzhi thought that this was how his life should be lived.
It was not until he was fifteen years old that he was discovered by the emperor and empress who were on a secret visit. After confirming that he was his son, he was forced to be brought back to the palace.
Just like what is written in all novels, he was just a wild child who was suddenly brought back from outside. Even though he looked like the queen, he was not raised properly in the palace.
It took him five years to go from nothing to his current position.
No one knew how much he had suffered, and no one asked him whether he had a good life in the palace.
