Chapter 696
Chu Yuanzhou's eyes closed slightly, and Chu Yi's eyes closed slightly: "I also thought about just staying in Ningde for a lifetime like that and being an idle prince, but I found that even if I was like this Thoughts, but they will not let me go. Over the years, the things I have faced are far more complicated than what I thought when I was a child."

"You have done a good job." Chu Yuanzhou opened his eyes slightly, but they were full of coldness.

No one knows better than him how difficult Chu Yi has been in these years.

During these years of living in Ningde, how much suffering Chu Yi has endured. The exiled prince is a bit worse than the tramp on the street. Watching in the dark, a little carelessness can lead to more indifferent treatment. Several times, Chu Yi almost entered the clan's mansion.

It is precisely because of these that he and Chu Yi are more sympathetic to each other.

Chu Yi said in a low voice: "I never ask how well I do, I just ask for my life."

He spoke very helplessly, but he revealed his situation, and it was precisely because of these that he had to climb up and walk towards that extreme position step by step.

Gaining the emperor's trust is the first step, leaving Ningde is the second step, and entering the Imperial Academy is the third step.

He knew that the further he went, the more thorns would be on his path. Without Chu Yuanzhou's help, he would not have dared to think whether he could bear such swords and swords by himself.

Although he and Chu Yuanzhou are not blood brothers, in his eyes, Chu Yuanzhou is closer than blood brothers.

Chu Yuanzhou's eyes became colder, and Chu Yi said in a low voice: "My mother and concubine are not favored, and I have been superfluous since I was born. Over the years, some people think that I am a useless prince, but it still makes people Don't worry. You have always wanted to be an idle person all these years, but because of the halo of your youth and the power of Chu Palace, you are destined not to be idle in the future."

Chu Yuanzhou said slowly: "We all understand these things, you don't have to say it so bluntly."

He said this, but he felt a little dark in his heart. He didn't believe in fate, but he couldn't escape the arrangement of fate.

"The reason why I speak so bluntly is because among the royal family, you are my only brother and friend." Chu Yi's voice was full of stability: "In my life, you are the only one other than my mother." The most important person to me besides my concubine, even if I lose my life, I don't want to lose you, and I don't want you to be misunderstood."

Chu Yuanzhou said indifferently: "This jade pendant is very important to you. You have always carried it with you very carefully. It is probably not accidental that it was lost this time!"

"It was accidental." Chu Yi said softly: "I only found out after I lost it. I wanted to go back and look for it, but it was not appropriate. I had some selfish intentions in my heart at the time, and what happened later was beyond my expectation. Besides, my heart has calmed down again.”

Chu Yi's words were a bit cryptic, without any details, but Chu Yuanzhou could guess a little bit of Chu Yi's mind at that time, and he said softly: "You shouldn't have thought that way back then."

"Yes." Chu Yi said slowly: "Maybe she saved my life that day."

Chu Yuanzhou's eyes slanted slightly: "So you want to make a promise with your body?"
