After the hero goes crazy

Chapter 188 The Big Secret

Chapter 180 Eight

Yao Shouning always felt that there was something in Lu Zhi's words, but when she raised her head, her eyes were at Shizi's chin level, and she could almost smell the faint sandalwood scent on Lu Zhi's body.

It wasn't until now that she realized that the two of them were a little close, and Liu's past teachings finally surfaced in her heart. She was so frightened that she took two steps back one after another, and moved a little further away from the prince, asking:

"Who is he?"

She asked this purely by instinct, and after she asked, she saw that the prince paused, and after a while, he said softly:
"Chen Taiwei."

"Who?" Yao Shouning rubbed his ears and asked.

"Chen Taiwei." Shizi frowned slightly, and said again.

"Chen Taiwei..." Yao Shouning was thoughtful. She thought the name sounded familiar, but she couldn't remember it for a while.

"Who is he?"

Lu Zhi turned his face and looked down at her, feeling that she was trying to annoy others on purpose.

"Chen Taiwei! Chen Taiwei! Chen Taiwei!"

"Why are you yelling so loudly?" She muttered softly, then remembered that he had to help her find the 'River God', and quickly changed into a flattering smile:
"Chen Taiwei, I remembered, I remembered."

When she spoke, she really remembered the identity of this person.

"He is Chen Taiwei, a Taoist priest beside the emperor."

Today, the emperor is obsessed with cultivating immortals, and he pays special respect to Chen Taiwei.

In the gazebo that day, Luo Ziwen mentioned this person with a rather apprehensive tone.

Lu Zhi stared at her for a while, then hooked a stool with his legs boldly, and sat down with his legs apart.

After getting out of the previous embarrassment, he returned to his cold and dignified appearance, like a real lady.

He stared at Yao Shouning until the girl was terrified, and then he turned his gaze to the table.

There was an open book and a pile of melon seeds.

"Want to eat?"

Seeing that his expression was wrong, Yao Shouning was secretly worried that this son would suddenly fall into evil again, so he carefully pushed the melon seeds in front of him.

He looked disgusted.

When Chen Taiwei appeared, the two were arguing, she grabbed the melon seeds nervously and did not let go, she was frightened by the Tsing Yi Taoist from the back, covered in cold sweat, and the skin of the melon seeds was soaked with sweat.

Yao Shouning thought very carefully of the time when he went to Yao's house to drive away the "River God" for him. He didn't even like Yao's cakes. He came from a noble family, so he definitely wouldn't eat such melon seeds.

She recalled the scene of the onlookers picking up things, first stuffed the book back into her collar, then brought the small pile of melon seeds in front of her, and whispered:

"If you don't eat, I will eat..."

Before she finished speaking, Lu Zhi pushed her hand away and reached out to snatch the melon seeds she was protecting in his palm:
"Who says I won't eat?"

The prince looked disgusted, and while speaking, he deliberately grabbed a handful in his palm, making a 'click' sound.

"This Taoist entered the Imperial Capital four years after Shenqi entered the capital."

As soon as he said this, Yao Shouning realized that he was telling him about Chen Taiwei's background.

Logically speaking, she doesn't care about the affairs of the court, whether it is Taoism or the emperor, they are far away from her as a boudoir girl.

When did Chen Taiwei enter the imperial capital, and how long did it take to gain the trust of the royal family? This should have nothing to do with her as a boudoir girl.

But she had dealt with Lu Zhi several times, and although she vaguely felt that the son would occasionally lose control of his behavior after being bewitched by evil spirits, when he was sober, his words and actions were not aimless.

Thinking of this, she didn't make a sound, but quietly listened to Lu Zhi.

Unexpectedly, after he finished this sentence, there was no more to say. She sat down with her palms on the table, and asked curiously:
"anything else?"

"Please beg me." Lu Zhi said while eating melon seeds.

He had already played this kind of routine once when he was in the car. Logically speaking, Yao Shouning had been fooled once, so he shouldn't be fooled again.

But her personality is different from Lu Zhi's imagination, as if curiosity trumps everything, and she is full of trust in people.

Hearing this, he put his hands on the table, pressed his shoulders, and looked up at him, with those big eyes twinkling:

"please."

Lu Zhi smiled slightly, this time he didn't tease her again, but said seriously:
"Did you know that the royal family has a secret rumor?"

"I don't know." Hearing what he said, Yao Shouning was really curious.

She didn't know much about the treachery of the officialdom, nor was she interested in understanding the intricacies and checks and balances among officials, but when it came to such secret rumors, Yao Shouning immediately became interested.

"But I want to know."

Shizi gave a light 'hum':
"You are so bold that you dare to listen to anything."

Yao Shouning said: "It's just the two of us here. After you finish speaking, I will keep it secret. No one will know when you leave this room." After she finished speaking, she added:
"I'm pretty good at keeping secrets."

As soon as the words fell, she remembered Liu Shi and the "Yingtian Bookstore" she mentioned. At that time, she also promised Liu Shi to keep the secret, but things changed later, and she failed to keep her promise completely——Thinking of this, She felt a little guilty again.

Lu Zhi saw her eyes wandering from side to side, not daring to look at himself, so he guessed what she was thinking.

She has a transparent mind and doesn't seem to be able to hide things. She is in the same room with her cousin who is possessed by evil spirits, and she doesn't know how to hide it.

Thinking of this in his heart, he immediately stopped his curiosity abruptly, and then turned the topic back to the royal family.

Since Shizi mentioned this matter to her, he has already thought it over carefully, and he is not afraid that she will not be able to keep the secret.

However, he found Yao Shouning's guilty and serious look on his face very interesting, so he intentionally teased her and told her coldly:
"I hope you can really keep the secret!"

"I swear, I can really keep it safe." The more 'seriously' Lu Zhi was, the more curious Yao Shouning became. She seriously raised her hand to swear, and then urged the prince:
"My son, tell me quickly."

Seeing her urging her several times, Lu Zhi said unhurriedly:

"As early as the founding of the country, the royal family had a secret that was passed down from generation to generation, saying that Daqing died in the 31st generation."

This is really a big secret!

Yao Shouning was dumbfounded.

She originally thought that she would hear some gossip about the royal family, but she didn't expect to hear such a terrible thing.

"..."

But more important news came from Lu Zhi one after another:
"Inherited so far, the current emperor is the 30th generation king."

Combined with what he said earlier, that is to say, after Emperor Shenqi, Daqing will be close to death.

Her scalp was numb, and she felt that the secrets she heard today exceeded her expectations.

Even though she doesn't know the general situation of the court, she still vaguely knows how terrible such a secret is.

"Could it be fake news?" She asked weakly.

"No." Lu Zhi shook his head.

When he was talking about the business, his expression became indifferent, and he glanced at Yao Shouning for a long time after he swept away his appearance when he was arguing with her before, and then released the heavy news again with great meaning:
"According to the rumors, this kind of news originally came from the mouth of the Bianji family."
