Chapter 212 The Most Trusted Henchman (1/2)
“Your Highness, this way please!”
Qin Wanru blinked her eyes and looked towards Chu Liuchen beside her. It turned out to be Xiao Xuanzi’s voice.
“Where is he?” At the intersection from which Qin Wanru and Chu Liuchen came, three people appeared. One was Xiao Xuanzi, the others turned out to be Prince Chu Liuyue and a little eunuch, who should be Chu Liuyue’s intimate eunuch!
“Gee, my master was here a moment ago. Where is he now?” Xiao Xuanzi said in astonishment. Looking around only to find no one, he was so anxious that his face turned pale.
“Where will third brother go?” Chu Liuyue did not panic, but only asked slowly after looking around with his cold eyes and finding nothing.
“Uh… I really don’t know. Hearing that Your Highness have come, my master asked me to pick you up. Uh… I really don’t know where has he gone after that. Please wait a moment, Your Highness. I’ll go to ask the servants of the mansion of Rui’an Great Elder Princess!” Xiao Xuanzi said hurriedly.
Chu Liuyue waved his hand, and Xiao Xuanzi hurriedly stepped backward.
Chu Liuyue walked into the pavilion, leisurely walked around in the pavilion with his hands on his back, and then stood casually and began to admire the plum blossoms in front of him.
For a long while, there was no sound in the pavilion.
“Your Highness, Prince Chen is probably not here. Do you want to visit other places?” The little eunuch who followed Chu Liuyue said involuntarily.
“It doesn’t matter. I can wait for a moment!” Chu Liuyue said leisurely.
“Your Highness, did Prince Chen leave you here alone like he did last time?” The little eunuch felt indignant for his master. “He did this last time. He promised to wait for you here, but finally left early, leaving you waiting here with an empty stomach!”
The little eunuch said discontentedly.
As the prince which was the most likely to inherit the throne in the future, why his master was so kind to Prince Chen who was seriously ill and at the pit’s brink. Prince Chen was just a dethroned crown prince with no more chance to win the position. Even if he could recover, he could not make a big difference, not to mention the fact that he was so sick now and would probably die at any time.
“Do you think that he does not deserve my kindness?” Chu Liuyue suddenly smiled.
“Yes, I feel sorry for Your Highness.” The little eunuch hurriedly expressed his loyalty.
“Others will also think so!” Chu Liuyue stopped talking, but the smile remaining on his face indicated that he was very satisfied. This situation was very rare based on the fact that he had always been a poker-faced Prince. It was obvious that he was really happy, and did not feel sad because Chu Liuchen deliberately avoided meeting him.
Qin Wanru’s gaze fell on Chu Liuchen’s face. These trees were very close to each other. Basically no one would find that two of them and a wheelchair were behind the trees.
Chu Liuchen slightly closed his eyes, leaning against the wide wheelchair behind him. The sun shone through the shadow of the trees, making mottled patterns on his face. His face was white like the jade, as if it was transparent. His curling up long eyelashes well matched his handsome and delicate facial features, making him look like an elegant master coming out of the painting.
Even the pale lips did no harm to his appearance.
Such a person should actually live in a picturesque environment!
Qin Wanru inexplicably bit her lips, with a trace of inexplicable feelings.
Chu Liuyue had made it very clear by saying that. The reason why he accommodated himself so much to Chu Liuchen was that he did that on purpose and wanted others to see that. The more Chu Liuchen embarrassed him, the better his impression on others would be.
Chu Liuchen was just a tool for his seeking reputation.
Perhaps he did that not only for seeking reputation, but also for ingratiating himself with Empress Dowager. It was said that Empress Dowager liked Chu Liuchen, who was sick, a lot.
No one had ever thought that he would inherit the throne in the end. No one would regard him as a strong opponent based on his current identity, not to mention his former identity as a crown prince. But even so, the emperor would never let him go. Someone could still stir up big trouble by making use of his identity.
The emperor could neither arrest him or let him go. He did not expect that Chu Liuyue dared to make use of him!
“Your Highness, you can befriend several other princes, but in terms of Prince Chen… The emperor may not like it!” As Chu Liuyue’s henchman, the little eunuch dared to say something. In particular, there were no people around now, and his master was obviously in a good mood.
“Father does not like it?” Chu Liuyue looked calm and said.
Seeing his peaceful face, the little eunuch became more daring and instantly nerved himself to say, “Your Highness, with Prince Chen’s identity, the emperor will certainly not like him. If you are close to Prince Chen, the emperor may, may…”
The little eunuch did not finish his words, because he did not dare to say too much.
Nevertheless, he had expressed his view. Chu Liuyue smiled in a low voice and said in an extremely good mood, “Father will not really do anything to him. Anyway, as a dying person, it will be fortunate for him to live for another one or two years. He could not live for long. He is in such poor health that he will definitely die even if father does not do anything to him!”
He said with great certainty. The little eunuch suddenly raised his head and his face became pale at the moment.
