Jiapingguan Chronicle

Chapter 1189 The Cruel Truth 2.0
"Wait a minute!" Hei Lu'er stopped A Piao, "Tell me what your name is first, and what kind of errand do you have by your highness's side."

"The villain's name is Ziyi, and he is His Highness's personal servant. Apart from those gentlemen, he is one of His Highness's most trusted people."

"Ziyi..." Hei Lu'er looked at A Piao, then at Wushu Dan, "Aren't you a Jin man? Are you a Xia man?"

"My lord, the villain has been in the palace and with His Highness since he can remember. He has never seen his own parents. What kind of people are they? Are they Jin people or Xia people? What did they go to?" The place, what is the situation now, the villain does not know."

"Didn't you ask about your parents?"

"I did ask, but there was no result." Ziyi thought for a while, then shook his head towards Hei Luer, "I remember when I was very young, about six or seven years old, the villain once asked His Highness about this matter, Your Highness He said that he was not very clear about how the villain got here. The villain was picked up by His Highness’s nanny outside the corner gate in the backyard of the palace. I heard that when the nanny picked up the villain, the villain was only three months old. It was placed in a bamboo basket at the entrance of the corner gate of the Wangfu. There was nothing in the bamboo basket that could prove the origin of the villain. It was winter and the weather was freezing, and the nurse couldn't bear to leave such a small child behind. There, I asked for the consent of the old prince and His Highness, and brought the villain back. Therefore, the villain can be regarded as growing up by His Highness's side and watched by His Highness. The name Ziyi was also given to the villain by His Highness. .”

"It turned out to be like this." Hei Lu'er nodded, "You are also lucky, because you were raised by that Highness, and you know that you can't have a second master besides him, and it's impossible Double-minded, so, like this..." He raised his chin towards Yi Qianzhang, "You are responsible for handling such things, aren't you?"

"No, only Mr. Yi is handled by villains. Mr. Yi is still very special to His Highness."

"Special?" Ah Piao raised his eyebrows, and took the hand stove from Wushu Dan, "Why is it special?"

"Your Highness loves and cherishes talent very much. When this Mr. Yi was in high school, His Highness had already taken a fancy to him and wanted to take him under his banner. That's why he frequently sent invitations to Mr. Yi, inviting him in various ways. Mr. Yi went to the mansion for a detailed discussion." Ziyi looked at the three people standing in front of him, "Just now I said that His Highness invited Mr. three times, but it is actually inaccurate, just the post of inviting him to the palace for a banquet is no less than ten times. This Mr. Yi refused every time. Even so, His Highness was not annoyed or angry. He even advised the villains not to care. Most young talents are like this. If they are like those gentlemen, they will come when they are called. , Wandering away, then he is not the young talent he likes."

"Isn't this a big belly?" Wu Shudan looked at Ziyi with great interest, "What happened later that made His Highness angry? Did you come to invite him personally and was rejected?"

"That's not true." Ziyi shook his head lightly, "No matter how much Your Highness cherishes talent, it's not enough. Besides, Mr. Yi is not the only one he likes. If he enters Mr. Yi's door, Isn’t it bad to ignore other people?”

"Unexpectedly, His Highness Aoki is quite particular about these things."

"Forgive me for speaking bluntly, the adults are prejudiced against our Highness. Our Highness is really not big-minded. When I was young, I did a lot of things that shouldn't be done because of this narrow-mindedness, but that is also ignorant. Our Highness always thinks about what we did when we were young, and regrets it very much. Just like what the little companion said just now, it is actually a knot in our Highness's heart. Every year on the birthday and death day of this little companion, Our Highness must pray for him to atone for the crimes he committed when he was young and reckless."

"However, no matter how atonement is made, that child is gone."

"But my lord, our Highness still knows that every time this is the time to pay homage to him, and his parents..." Ziyi sneered, "I have long forgotten about this child."

"Oh?" Ah Piao looked at Hei Lu'er, then at Wushu Dan, and saw the same confusion on their faces, "Why do you say that?"

"Because our Highness will send gifts and money every year. No matter what we send, the family will accept it as it is. Then one year, our Highness personally went to deliver it. He came from outside the city and happened to be on the way I went by myself. The couple thanked you a lot, accepted the gift from His Highness, and then..." He sighed, "After the door was closed, before we had time to leave, we heard a commotion inside."

"What's the noise?"

"They want to share the gifts and silver that His Highness sent over, and then go back to their homes and live their own lives." Ziyi shrugged helplessly, "It wasn't until this time that we knew that they had already reconciled. , and we have been separated for many years, waiting for this time every year to wait in that courtyard, divide the gifts and money sent by His Highness, and then leave separately."

"It turned out to be like this, it's unbelievable." Ah Piao sighed, "Come back to business, why did His Highness Aoki bother Yi Qianzhang? If it wasn't because Yi Qianzhang rejected him."

"Speaking of this matter, you adults should also understand our Highness's mood at that time, and the reaction is probably the same as our Highness's."

"Then tell me and listen."

"Yes!"

"Wait a minute!" Wu Shudan interrupted Ziyi, "How can you guarantee that what you are going to say next is true and not lying to us?"

"The villain can swear that if there is even half a lie, the sky will be struck by lightning!"

"No!" Wu Shudan shook his head lightly, "Not ruthless enough."

"In this way, if you tell a half lie, you will die immediately." Hei Lu'er grinned at Ziyi, "How? Dare you?"

"Dare!" Ziyi stretched out two fingers and pointed to the sky, "If the villain tells half a lie, the villain will die immediately."

"Okay, let's talk!"

"Yes! His Highness is about to give up because he has repeatedly failed to attract Mr. Yi, but he overheard Mr. Yi talking nonsense." Ziyi took a deep breath, "The villain just said that our Highness has a small heart, but It's not like just because the other party rejected him, you have to shout and kill him, and you have to toss people to death to relieve your anger. To be honest, after so many years, there have been many people who have objected to our Highness, and it is impossible for His Highness to retaliate , right? Don’t talk about other people, just say you three, all these years, when did we see our highness have a good face? Our highness didn’t do anything to the three, did he? But this Mr. Yi is not like that When we were eating in Zuixianju, we overheard the sound of laughing and joking from the box next door, and heard Mr. Yi say that His Highness fell in love with him, which is why he recruited him so many times. But he He doesn't like His Highness at all, and thinks that the children of the royal family are ignorant, so he doesn't want to serve these brainless fools."
