Chapter 70 A plan in mind [two-in-one]

At this time, Fu Zhiyuan was standing quietly in the palace, looking out the window at the scenery, which was nothing but an empty palace.

There were guards on patrol, and groups of eunuchs occasionally passed by.

Not knowing what she was thinking in her heart, Xiao Yunzi stood aside and did not disturb her.

Fu Zhiyuan has always been like this since he ascended the throne. Little Yunzi didn't know what to see outside this window.

Time passed by and the sky became darker.

"Your Majesty, it's getting cold, why not close the windows."

Xiao Yunzi interrupted his daze, saying that after standing like this for a long time, it was time to rest.

"What time is it now?" Fu Zhiyuan did not accept his suggestion, but asked about the time.

"Chen Shi three quarters." Xiao Yunzi looked at Shi Chen and said.

"Leave the palace." Fu Zhiyuan said, holding the Buddhist beads in his hand and carrying them behind his back, he stepped out of the palace door.

At this time, the palace door is not locked yet, but it is not advisable to leave the palace.

"Your Majesty, it's so late, so don't leave the palace..." Xiao Yunzi didn't want to. What if Fu Zhiyuan had an accident outside the palace when it got dark?

Fu Zhiyuan stopped and turned around, staring at him with deep eyes. Naturally, Xiao Yunzi encountered such cold eyes, so she had no choice but to stop trying to persuade him and lowered her head.

Fu Zhiyuan then continued to walk forward, but Xiao Yunzi couldn't help but ask: "Your Majesty, where are you going so late?"

It’s also good to be prepared.

"Prince An's Mansion." Fu Zhiyuan looked calm, and the beads on his back were still spinning.

Prince An's Mansion was the former residence of the second prince. Now, he is a commoner, but he still retains Prince An's Mansion and is imprisoned in the palace.

Little Yunzi was shocked. Ever since Fu Zhiyuan ascended the throne, he had never been to Prince An's Mansion. Why did he want to take a look today?

It was hard for him to ask, and he almost angered Fu Zhiyuan just now, so he had to follow him honestly.

The area around Prince An's Mansion is heavily guarded, even at night.

These officers and soldiers were not protecting the former second prince Fu Zhixuan, but monitoring and trapping him.

The officers and soldiers outside the palace were surprised when they saw that the person coming was the current emperor, but they did not ask any more questions and let him in.

Fu Zhiyuan stepped into the door of the mansion, but there was no one there.

Even the courtyard is a bit messy, as if it has been dilapidated for a long time.

Also, all the servants in Prince An's Mansion have been killed. Fu Zhixuan is already a commoner, so naturally he doesn't need anyone to take care of him.

Prince An's Mansion was still very large, but Fu Zhiyuan didn't know where he lived yet, so he just walked to the study.

There was a candle burning in the study, and Fu Zhiyuan guessed that this was it.

He stepped into the study room, and there was a futon in the middle, which was very old.

On top of the futon, a monk wearing white robes sat cross-legged.

However, there are no ring scars.

That cannot be considered a serious monk.

Fu Zhixuan heard the footsteps approaching and thought to himself, if he came to Prince An's Mansion at this hour, he would definitely not be delivering food.

Slowly turning around, it turned out to be Fu Zhiyuan, the current emperor and his third brother.

When Fu Zhiyuan saw his appearance, he seemed much older, with wrinkles appearing on his face.

But he is only one year older than Fu Zhiyuan, but he seems to be ten years older.

Fu Zhixuan was now a commoner, so he naturally had to bow when he saw Fu Zhiyuan, but he turned around and did not move on the futon. Instead, he said: "Amitabha, what is the purpose of the emperor's visit late at night?"

"Bold, you don't even show courtesy when you meet the emperor!" Xiao Yunzi was angry. Fu Zhixuan was already in such a situation, and he was still so rude and without rules. After all, he didn't want to live anymore!

"Humph, if I don't show courtesy, what can you do to me?" Fu Zhixuan said with a snort without turning his head.

He was imprisoned in this mansion and wanted to die a long time ago. If he was punished for this, it would be a good ending.

"Second brother, it seems that you already want to die."

Fu Zhiyuan still called him the same name as before, but it was not as respectful as before, but instead there was a hint of ridicule in his tone.

If it weren't for this good second brother, Egret wouldn't have died!

"So what if you want to die? Will you let me die?" Fu Zhixuan clasped his hands together, hooked the prayer beads in his hands with his thumb, lowered his head slightly, closed his eyes, and never looked back from the beginning to the end.

He is confident and knows that Fu Zhiyuan will not kill him.

Fu Zhiyuan raised the corners of his mouth, and the hatred in his eyes could no longer be concealed. He walked to his side, squatted down, and looked at his side face, as if he was very pious to the Buddha.

Unfortunately, even Buddha could not save him.

"Won't."

"How can you empathize with me after you die?"

Fu Zhiyuan's face was calm and calm, but there was a trace of hatred flashing in his eyes, which made people feel a biting gloom.

Fu Zhixuan didn't speak, but his clenched teeth could make people feel that he was holding back.

"Second brother, how come you have stayed in the mansion for so long, and you even shaved your head and still wore a monk's robe?" Fu Zhiyuan laughed again, and the sarcasm in his words could not be concealed at all.

The former second prince is now imprisoned in the palace and even shaved his head. Is he trying to see through the world of mortals?

Fu Zhixuan listened to his ridicule, snorted and said: The daily meals are vegetarian, not meaty at all. My wife, concubines, and children were all killed by you. Even if I am not a monk, I am still a monk."

"Oh? If the six roots are pure, what's wrong with that?" Fu Zhiyuan stood up and stopped looking at him. He looked at the Buddha statue on the table and said, "If the Buddha saves you, then he is not a Buddha."

"Buddha saves all living beings, and I am no exception."

Even if Fu Zhixuan is imprisoned in this mansion, he doesn't want Fu Zhiyuan to have the upper hand.

"Just you? An unfilial and unjust person? That's a joke." Fu Zhiyuan turned the beads in his hands behind his back and said, "By the way, I forgot to tell you one thing."

Fu Zhixuan ignored him and didn't even want to know what he wanted to say.

Anyway, Fu Zhiyuan has already gone crazy!

When he came back from Youzhou, he was already crazy.

It's like a person whose soul has been taken away, and he is like a walking corpse in this world.

He was doing the calmest thing and the most sensible behavior, but all he heard was just crazy words.

How could he not be the same person he was three years ago?

It's just presented in another way.

"You don't want to hear it? But I have to tell you." Fu Zhiyuan smiled, looked at the Buddha statue in front of him and said, "Princess Chang'an is already married."

Fu Zhixuan opened his eyes suddenly. This should be the best news he has heard in these years.

Are you finally married?

That's fine, I'll spend the rest of my life in peace.

"It's a pity that her husband is a manly man with a violent temperament."

Fu Zhixuan couldn't bear it anymore, stood up and wanted to grab his neck, but was blocked by Xiao Yunzi.

"It's your fault!"

"Second brother, you can't blame me for this. If you want to blame me, you can only blame her for her bad luck." Seeing that he finally got angry, Fu Zhiyuan became more and more happy. The corners of his mouth raised as if to tell him, what can you do to me?

"Why do you need to implicate others? If you hate me, kill me!" Fu Zhixuan roared, his veins bulging out, like a small beast. In front of humans, it can only be helpless and furious.

"You are my second brother, how could I commit the act of killing my brother? Second brother, you have to live well. There will be better news in the future."

Fu Zhiyuan waved his sleeves and left the study.

Fu Zhixuan sat slumped on the ground, the hatred in his eyes unable to dissipate.

Fu Zhiyuan was in a good mood. This time, it was not in vain. Seeing him feel uncomfortable made him feel better!

"Um...Your Majesty, what's going on with Princess Chang'an?" Xiao Yunzi has been wondering, why doesn't he know about Princess Chang'an's affairs?

"Oh, I lied to him."

Fu Zhiyuan's steps were brisk, as if he was talking about the most ordinary thing.

But, as an emperor, how can he lie?

"Your Majesty...if he knew that the Emperor was lying to him..." Xiao Yunzi didn't understand. Even if this was a lie, it would only be a temporary lie. The truth would eventually be revealed.

"He is imprisoned in the mansion and has no contact with anyone, so how can he know about it?" Fu Zhiyuan didn't care. As long as it made Fu Zhixuan unhappy, it was worthwhile even if he lied.

Xiao Yunzi nodded, that's what she said.

Besides, Princess Chang'an is far away in Youzhou, so the news cannot reach here.

Zhang Anchu was lying on the bed, flipping through books. She had already thought of how to send the golden hairpin to Prince An's Mansion.

As far as she knew, a team of eunuchs from the palace went to deliver meals every day.
