The emperor had already restrained his emotions, but his face turned a little pale, and he was breathing almost inaudible.

He said calmly: "The emperor's aunt is fine, she has just stopped. The seventh prince should not bother her to rest. When she wakes up, you can go see her again."

The emperor said this reasonably, and Chu You didn't know how to insist, so he nodded and said, "The emperor's brother said it. The emperor's aunt is fine, and my brother's heart has been relieved."

"Brother, I wonder what the disease is with my aunt?" Chu You asked with concern.

The emperor didn't care about Chu You's temptation, and sighed and said, "The emperor's aunt is not young, she is old and weak, and she is suffering from old diseases over the years. She is the most afraid of others worrying about her, so she always hides her. This time, I will let her take a good rest."

The emperor said a few casually, but it seemed that he didn't say anything.

"The emperor's aunt's personality has always been like this." Chu You's eyes flashed with a faint light. "When the father was alive, he often advised the emperor to not be too strong and to take care of the phoenix body. The emperor's aunt is lucky and has a natural appearance, so it will be fine."

The emperor's knuckles inadvertently knocked gently on the coffee table without saying a word.

Sitting in the corner, Gu Yanfei was holding a pastel enamel teacup and silently savoring the good dragon-jing in the teacup.

After a pause, Chu You sighed and changed the subject: "It's almost a year since my father passed away. If the emperor's brother intends to go to the imperial tomb to worship his father, I want to go with you, so that my father can see my brother's princess."

"Unknown to me, it's been a year." The emperor sighed with emotion and sigh, neither saying he would go nor saying he would not go.

Chu You's lips pursed a little, his eyes darker, and he said, "After I worship my father and queen, I plan to take the princess back to the fiefdom, and ask the emperor to agree."

While the last word fell, Chu You lowered his head, still clasped his fists, and respectfully made a gesture of surrender.

The emperor sitting by the window looked at Chu You quietly. Under the backlight, his expression seemed a little deep, and there was no sign of joy or anger.

Chu You didn't care and continued, "I used to be ignorant. If I had disrespectfulness to my elder brother, I hope my elder brother will be with me. Now I have already married, so according to convention, I should take the princess to the fiefdom with me."

The emperor's knuckles were still knocking gently on the coffee table, as if thinking.

The room became quiet, and only the rustling sound of the wind blowing on the flowers and trees was heard outside the window.

After a while of silence, Chu Yi put down the teacup and suddenly asked, "I remember that the fief of the Seventh Emperor's Uncle should be in Yangzhou, right?"

The late emperor preferred Chu You, the youngest son, and gave Chu You the wealthy land of Yangzhou as a fief. On the other hand, Yangzhou was far away from the capital and the sky was high and the emperor was far away. The late emperor considered Chu You, the youngest son. When he was alive, he thought that if he could not support his youngest son to succeed to the throne, he would have to leave a way out for his youngest son.

Yangzhou is the way of retreat prepared by the late emperor for Chu You.

Even if the late emperor did not say this clearly, others, including the emperor, could understand this.

Chu You's eyes slowly moved from the emperor to Chu Yi, silently responding, and guessing in his heart: Chu Yi knew how to ask, but he didn't know what it meant.

Chu Yi didn't plan to wait for the other party to answer, and then said, "Speaking of this, nine years ago, the Seventh Emperor went to Yangzhou to see the fiefdom."

"The emperor's nephew remembered wrongly. I went to Yangzhou at that time to visit my grandfather's family when the Empress Dowager Dian went to Linchuan City to visit my grandfather's family." Chu You's narrow eagle eyes were half-closed, and a sharp light flashed, and his cold eyes swept over Chu You's face.

This is just an external reason. In fact, everyone knows that the biggest purpose of King Kang's visit to Yangzhou is to choose a location to build the Kang's Mansion.

Chu You thought Chu Yi would like to mention Gu Ce case again under the topic of Yangzhou, but Chu Yi was gossiping and asked, "What does the Seventh Emperor think of Yangzhou?"

The uncle and nephew stared at each other for a moment, and Chu You said lightly: "There are thirty-eight counties and 195 counties under Yangzhou. The land is vast and the people are simple, and the Grand Canal directly leads to the north and south. It is a beautiful and prosperous place."

He answered in a proper manner and was nothing surprising. In the end, he threw a question to Chu Yi, "When the emperor returned from Yue Kingdom last year, didn't he also visit Yangzhou?"

"The Seventh Emperor Uncle is really..." Chu Yi opened a folding fan with a slight sound, and the folding fan shook it gently, "At that time, Yangzhou was in chaos, and the people and soldiers were killed and injured. The Seventh Emperor Uncle paid more attention to the landscape style."

The folding fan is painted with a flying vermilion bird. When the folding fan is gently swaying, it attracts people's eyes to fall on the bright red vermilion bird. The flying vermilion bird is as bright as fire and blood, and is so bright that it is almost dazzling.

What does it mean?! Chu You's pupils twitched slightly.

Chu Yi turned his head and looked at the emperor with a faint look, "Father, I recently obtained a new file, which is about the Yangzhou case nine years ago."

"This file comes from Yue State and is given by Xiahouqing, the Lord of the Tianyuansi, who is now supervising the dynasty."

"Oh?" The emperor stopped his fingers.

Xiahou Qing? Chu You raised his thick black eyebrows slightly higher on one side, and his lips curled invisibly. He looked at Chu Yi with a look in his eyes, "Does the emperor's nephew be very familiar with Xiahou Qing?"

Chu Yi smiled like the spring breeze, looked at Chu You calmly and said, "When I was in Yue Kingdom, I met several times with Lord Xiahou."

"It was the Yue people who claimed that Gu Ce opened the city gate to surrender the enemy, so the case still had to be investigated from Yue." The folding fan in his hand stopped and asked Chu You, "Isn't it?"

The Vermillion Bird painted on the folding fan on the white background is raised with its sharp beak, as if it is chanting for a long time, and as if it is sneering contemptuously.

"..." Chu You's eyes twitched for a moment, and he felt that Chu Yi was really despicable.

Chu You avoided answering Chu Yi's question and said in a tone of teaching: "Nephew, you have only met the Lord Xiahou in Yue State, but you only met a few times. As the saying goes, knowing people but not your heart, and no one knows the truth or falsehood of this document."

"I'm not allowed to say anything, it's what he is?"

Chu You's expression remained motionless, without any change, and his tone was cold and arrogant.

While talking, the wind outside became stronger, making the branches rustle, and the chaotic catkins and petals danced with the wind. Occasionally, a few catkins floated into the house through the window.

Chu Yi brushed off a small cluster of catkins floating on his shoulders, and his tone was still calm: "Father, Xiahou Qing has sent someone to send the file from the capital of Yue State with great speed."

"I believe the truth about what happened back then will be revealed soon."

He said to the emperor, but his eyes looked at Chu You on the other side. The dark Ruifeng's eyes were as clear as water, and the red tears at the ends of her eyes were bright and bright.

"In the letter from Lord Xiahou, the seven emperors did a lot of efforts in the battle between the two countries."

He didn't say how King Kang "worked". At first glance, it seemed to praise King Kang who helped defend the city in Tailing City.

"..." Chu You's handsome face was tense tightly, and the tail finger of one hand twitched gently.

He glanced at Chu Yi with the end of his eyes and thought coldly: I'm really talking lies with my eyes open! If Baili Yin didn't lie to him, then Xiahou Qing would probably be in the capital in recent days.

Baili Yin had no reason to lie to him in this matter. After all, where Xiahou Qing was concerned about the power struggle in the Yue Kingdom's court, it had nothing to do with his great scenery.

Chu You's twitching tail fingers relaxed again, and said to the emperor calmly: "Brother, Xiahou Qing is a ruthless man and kills people. He not only has the atrocities of slaughtering people, but also killed the censor on the spot in Fengtian Palace, which is outrageous."

"I think this person has a bad reputation outside, I think the words of this person are unreliable!"

"Recently, the saint of Yue Kingdom was seriously ill and was worried in the country. Xiahou Qing was insidious and cunning. It must be that he intends to provoke civil strife in the great scene. On the one hand, he exempted him from foreign troubles in Yue Kingdom, and on the other hand, he also wanted to enjoy the benefits of a fisherman."

Chu You's words were justified and passionate, making people unable to make any mistakes.

Gu Yanfei, holding a sweet candied crabapple, thought to himself: It's a pity that he can be sophistry that he didn't go to the Censorate to be a censor.

Chu Yi laughed softly.

"Civil strife?" Chu Yi raised his eyebrows, smiled softly, and looked puzzled, "Why did the Seventh Emperor think that Lord Xiahou wanted to provoke my civil strife in Dajing?"

“Or…”

"The Seventh Emperor's Uncle already knows what is written in the file sent by Lord Xiahou?"

Chu Yi's eyes were even more smiling, but the meaning in his words was extremely sharp. He just wanted to directly ask what King Kang was guilty of!

"..." Chu You realized that he had lost his words, and the muscles on his cheeks jumped, and his face was as stern as cold as iron.

The house was quiet, and only the emperor slowly covered the tea cup with tea, and the subtle sound of the collision of porcelain made the surroundings look quieter.

Chu You's face became a little gloomy, and he bit his back teeth hard and said in a deep voice: "The emperor's nephew has thought too much. How did I know what was written in the file sent by Xiahou Qing? I just don't believe in Yue people."

"I have been in Yue for eight years. How treacherous people in Yue are? I think the emperor's nephew knows the best, right?"

His deliberate tone sounded sharp and harsh at this moment, and he looked at Chu Yi coldly: Chu Yi can dig a hole for himself, and he can do the same!

Chu Yi smiled but said nothing about Chu You's provocation that he thought he was fighting back. The folding fan in his hand gently swayed, with his usual elegance.

His gentle smile was obviously like the spring breeze and rain, but with his actions, there was an inexplicable sarcasm.

Chu You's tail finger couldn't help but twitch again, his chest rolled and his eyes were cold.

Gu Yanfei on the other side was also looking at Chu Yi, but she was looking at the jade ring worn by Chu Yi on his thumb.

The jade ring is engraved with simple lines of Qilin pattern, and the warm jade material makes his fingers look white and delicate, and his jade-like fingers become more and more slender.

This jade ring looks so good when he wears it! Gu Yanfei praised it with complacent smugness in his heart.

She knew that the jade material she chose was suitable for him and that she could carve it well!

What will she give him next time?

Gu Yanfei was thinking, suddenly, her half-hung eyebrows trembled and she looked towards the door curtain. The next moment, the door curtain was beaten from outside, and a middle-aged eunuch hurriedly lifted the curtain in and reported, "Your Majesty, Your Highness, Princess, has just woken up."

Chu You, who originally wanted to say something, shut up and the topic of Xiahou Qing and the file was terminated.

The emperor stood up first, and Chu Yi, Gu Yanfei and Chu You also followed the emperor to visit Fengyang a little while.

Two imperial physicians from the Imperial Hospital were also inside. The Imperial Physician Ling kept reporting, saying that they had just handed Fengyang the pulse, that Fengyang had insufficient qi and blood, qi stagnation and blood stasis, and that the yin and yang were all weak.

The call that the imperial physician Ling said sounded nonsense to Chu You, without any point. Chu You went in and out of his left ear, and was not at all relieved. He didn't say a word, but just looked at Feng Yang lying on the couch with a dim look.

Although Fengyang woke up, he was still very weak. He forced a smile and said to the emperor, "Emperor Lao is worried" and fell asleep again.

Sleeping Fengyang's face was as pale as paper and his lips were slightly blue.

Since the purpose of this trip was achieved, Chu You didn't stay in Nanshu for too long. After a while, he proposed to leave on the excuse of "not disturbing Fengyang's rest."

Chu Yi personally sent Chu You out of Nan Study.

After stepping over the high threshold, Chu You stepped down step by step on the white marble steps. When he reached the last level, Chu Yi's unspicable voice suddenly sounded from behind: "Does the Seventh Emperor really plan to return to the fiefdom?"

Chu You stopped and neither looked back nor answered Chu Yi's question.

His broad shoulders were slightly stiff in the shadow cast by the eaves above.

Chu Yi seemed to not care whether Chu You replied or not, and said in a slight tone, "There are tens of thousands of people buried in Yangzhou, and the ghosts will not disperse. When the Seventh Emperor Uncle returns to the fiefdom tomorrow, remember to ask a few Taoist priests to do a good job of rituals to save those who died in vain, so as not to wander around the world."

Chu You's hands, which were placed on the side of his body, couldn't help but clenched into fists. This time, he couldn't help but turn around.
