Quickly wear: The male protagonist Jue Si is manipulated by a pregnant Jiaojiao

Chu Yi was stunned for a few moments, then quickly reacted.

She wanted to do the same thing as she did to Chu Rui before, disguising herself as a beauty and going into the palace to look for the Lingxi horn.

Chu Yi felt uncomfortable when he thought that she would accompany the emperor and compromise with him.

But he didn't show it, and just said gently: "My father no longer selects concubines."

Nanzhi frowned, "Then he will always choose new people to enter the palace, right?"

"Yes, there will be a selection, but the process is complicated and requires multiple rounds of screening. When you finally enter the palace, there will be a maid to verify your identity. I'm afraid..."

Nanzhi patted his chest and said, "I am not afraid of these. I have plenty of strength and means."

Chu Yi saw that she was determined to enter the palace. He was silent for a while and said, "My father is very suspicious. If you disguise yourself as a concubine to get close to him, it will be difficult to find the Lingxi Horn. In fact, there are other ways..."

"Hurry up and tell me, don't hesitate and keep me in suspense."

Who would have thought that Chu Yi would go even further? He looked at her, his lips slightly raised, with expectation in his eyes: "Kiss me, okay?"

Nanzhi narrowed her eyes and looked at him, and Chu Yi lowered his eyes feeling guilty.

He thought she wouldn't agree, and was about to tell her, but unexpectedly, she came up and kissed him on the lips, "Come on, tell me now."

The curve of Chu Yi's lips never dropped. He held her hand and said, "You can go in disguised as a eunuch."

"Eunuch?" Nanzhi screamed, "You want to castrate me?"

"It's not true." Chu Yi quickly comforted her, "I will find a way to help you hide this, you don't have to worry."

Nanzhi snorted coldly, still disagreeing, "I am too manly to play the role of a eunuch."

Chu Yi looked at her thin and small appearance and was silent.

I can't play the role of a eunuch, but I can play the role of a beauty.

Yeah, very manly indeed.

He held her in his arms and said, "I know you are a man, so why don't you pretend to be a guard?"

Nanzhi leaned in his arms and thought about it. Although she thought it was feasible, but...

"I still really want to be a concubine, mainly..." She looked at him with a perverted look in her eyes.

Chu Yi understood what she was thinking.

She just wanted to take advantage of him.

He didn't say anything, just looked at her tenderly and lovingly.

Nanzhi’s heart softened a lot when she saw this.

"Okay, I don't need to be a concubine, but you have to call me something nice."

Nanzhi held his face and rubbed it hard, then said with a smile: "Call me 'sister'."

She seems to be very keen on being a woman.

At this time, Chu Yi didn't realize anything. Although she always acted weird when they were intimate and didn't let him touch her, Chu Yi just thought that she didn't like it.

He rested his forehead against hers, staring at her with a stringy gaze, like a vixen, totally a source of trouble.

"elder sister."

Nanzhi felt his heart suddenly beat at an astonishingly fast speed.

The tips of her ears turned red unconsciously, and she avoided looking at him, "Okay, that's enough, help me arrange it quickly."

After saying that, she slipped out of his arms like a fish, climbed out the window and left quickly, her back looking like she was fleeing in panic.

Chu Yi looked at this scene, and thought of her red ears, with smiles in his eyes and brows.

But as he smiled, his eyes dimmed.

He coughed quietly, and looked at the blood on the handkerchief, and the light in his eyes disappeared.

[Chu Yi, I admit that I was a little emotional when I kissed you before, but you know, men's brains are always controlled by their lower body.

I have never been sincere to you, not before, and everything in the future is just a fake, so please don't take it seriously. 】In fact, he was very glad that she said that.

Although he was unwilling, he was already a dying man, and asking her to stay with him was already selfish. Forcing her to fall in love with him and leaving her alone in the end was too cruel.

That day she told Doctor Zhou that she used rhinoceros horn for beauty and skin care, but he actually didn't believe her.

She must have some other important use for it.

His life, compared with hers, will always be insignificant.

Chu Yi spread out the drawing paper, picked up the brush, and continued to paint the unfinished painting. From a distance, he could already see the outline of a person...

I don't know how much time passed, but it was already completely dark.

Ye Ren appeared behind him silently, "Master, there is still no news about the Lingxi Horn."

Chu Yi had expected this, his face darkened, "Add more people, keep looking."

"As you command." Ye Ren wanted to leave, but then he thought of something and said, "Prime Minister Li's daughter has been very close to a man from the underworld recently. This man is known to Nan Zhi. He is the eldest disciple of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion. Nan Zhi seems to have a special relationship with him and even said...she likes him..."

Hearing this, Chu Yi's eyes moved slightly, and the ink on the brush in his hand fell down, almost dripping onto the drawing paper. He reached out to catch it in time.

Ye Ren hurriedly took out the handkerchief and handed it to him.

Chu Yi showed nothing on his face, but Ye Ren could still sense that something was wrong with his mood.

Ye Ren continued to add information, trying to divert his attention: "This person also attended the birthday banquet of King Rui. I'm afraid he is King Rui's man. King Rui may want to use him to get the help of Wanjian Pavilion."

"Understood, let's go down."

Ye Ren looked at his back, even more indifferent than usual. He said nothing more and retreated silently.

After Ye Ren left, Chu Yi looked at the ink marks on the palm of his hand. No matter how hard he tried to wipe them, he couldn't wipe them clean.

Just like feelings, once they invade, no matter how hard you try to erase them, they will still leave traces.

But fortunately, she has someone she loves and will not be sad about his departure.

……

As soon as Chu Ning arrived at the main hall of the East Palace, he heard the conversation.

"Congratulations, Your Highness. Your health has improved greatly. Now you just need to take good care of yourself. You will be completely cured in a year or two at most."

Chu Ning paused and heard Chu Yi laughing inside, "Really? No wonder I don't feel cold anymore and I don't cough as much recently."

The butler beside him also said happily: "Your Highness, do you want to ask Doctor Jiang to go back and report to the Emperor, the Empress, and the Fifth Prince, so that they can also be happy?"

"No need." Chu Yi said, "I want to wait until I am completely well before telling them, so that I can give them a surprise."

Hearing this, a smile appeared on Chu Ning's lips.

He already knew about this surprise in advance, which was great news.

Since Chu Yi doesn't want him to know, he will just pretend not to know.

Chu Yi was quite capable. In just two days, he helped Nanzhi successfully become a small guard.

Whenever Nanzhi had time, he would search everywhere for the whereabouts of the rhinoceros horn.

Chu Yi also helped check the files to see if any rhinoceros horns had been sent to the palace.

Before the truth was revealed, something big happened.

The Imperial Astronomical Observatory calculated the prince's fortune and said that the prince lacked the element of earth and needed to marry a woman of the earth element, only then would his health improve.

In short, a woman is needed to bring good luck.

And this woman is the eldest daughter of Prime Minister Li—Li Qiurou.

The two were born on dates that showed they were a perfect match, and the emperor agreed immediately without even asking Chu Yi's opinion.

When the imperial edict was delivered to the East Palace, Chu Yi was discussing the whereabouts of the Lingxi Horn with Nanzhi, who had sneaked out of the palace.
