Chapter 182 - A Single Misstep Could Lead to Endless Hatred
“Did it work?” In Prefecture Lord's Mansion, Old Prince was sitting in his study room, waiting for the news.
A young man in gray was kneeling on the ground. He looked gloomy and said in a low voice, “It did work, but I didn't hear anything big had happened in the Crown Prince's Palace.”
“Haha, how could such a thing be publicized? It is normal that we could not find out. It is just that the two spies we have buried in the crown prince's residence are probably doomed.”
“Your Royal Highness, if those two people are caught as well… Wouldn't it be obvious that it is a trap at a glance? Then what's the point of us planning for so long? We all know it's a trap, so how could Crown Prince Zhao believe it? He was not stupid.”
Old Prince stroked his beard. He still looked pleased. “You really don't know men, especially men in high positions. How can someone like him tolerate his wife cheating on him? So what if it's a trap? We did it, didn't we? “If it was a woman, she would probably have crashed into a pillar and died on the spot.”
“But Tang Yue is not a woman. Even if he is, he is still a woman. A woman from the 21st century. It's not like you're going to die with a man in your arms.”
After Crown Prince Zhao heard Tang Yue's explanation, he didn't speak for a long time. Tang Yue looked at him nervously. “You will believe me, won't you?”
He looked at Crown Prince Zhao with innocent and innocent eyes. Crown Prince Zhao turned away and muttered to himself, “I really don't know how he chose you.”
Tang Yue heard what he said and defended himself. “Because I am handsome, smart, kind, and virtuous. It is normal for him to like me.”
Crown Prince Zhao could not help but glance at him. “Let's go back to the room and wash up. I smell like another man.”
Tang Yue subconsciously raised his sleeves and sniffed. Of course, he couldn't smell anything strange. However, he knew he was in the wrong. He ran to the backyard.
Crown Prince Zhao also walked out of the house. He looked back at the clean and clean yard and said coldly, “Divide this yard and dig it into a pond to feed Crown Princess some fish.”
“...” The guards looked at each other. A few of them had strange expressions. They looked like they wanted to laugh but did not dare to.
Wait. When the butler heard this news, he almost rolled his eyes and fainted. Fortunately, it was just a physical contact. If something really happened, wouldn't his master tear down the entire mansion and rebuild it?
After Crown Prince Zhao sent Tang Yue away, he went to the place where Ziyu was imprisoned. In a short period of time, this outstanding musician had become a crippled man with messy hair and bloodstains on his face.
“Has he been interrogated?” Crown Prince Zhao sat down on a chair. His eyes did not fall on the gloomy man at all.
Wang Dingjun took a handkerchief and wiped the blood off his hands. He walked over and said, “Not yet. Your mouth is very tight.”
“Then there is no need to interrogate him. Let him go.”
Wang Dingjun looked at him in surprise. His highness did not seem to be such a generous and compassionate person.
“Are you really going to let him go?” Wang Dingjun asked uncertainly.
“If I don't let him go, do I have to raise him for nothing?” Crown Prince Zhao got up and walked to the young man. After a moment of silence, he called Wang Dingjun over and said, “Give him a pot of herbal tea and throw him to the Harmony House on West Street. Send someone to spread the news and guard there.”
Wang Dingjun knew exactly where the Harmony House was. This herbal tea was probably no ordinary medicine. Thinking back to what he had just heard, Wang Dingjun did not think that there was anything wrong with Crown Prince Zhao doing this.
“Does His Highness want to lure the master behind the scenes out? But will he go?”
“We'll know if he will.” Crown Prince Zhao kicked the young man. When he saw the young man lying on the ground indifferently, his expression was indifferent. He did not look as smart and gentle as before. It could be seen that someone had specially trained him.
Tang Yue took a shower and changed into a new set of clothes. The weather was getting hotter. He only needed to wear a single set of clothes. He took a look at the bronze mirror and specially chose a long robe with wide sleeves and a wide waist. There was a layer of gauze covering the robe, revealing a pair of delicate collarbones.
He had little flesh on him, and the long robe he wore made him look even thinner. He actually had the ability to move people's hearts.
“Looks like the heavens are still fair. They didn't give me a handsome face and gave me a good figure.”
The sky was already dark. Tang Yue asked someone to bring dinner to the house and wait for Crown Prince Zhao to come in.
He had already thought of a hundred ways to apologize. If he really couldn't do it, he would sacrifice himself. With his ability in bed, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to subdue a teenager.
He waited left and right, waiting for the dishes to cool down. Tang Yue didn't see Crown Prince Zhao's figure.
“Don't tell me he's so angry that he doesn't want to see me?” Tang Yue muttered to himself. He called for He Lai, “Go and see what Crown Prince is doing.”
He had a straight face. It was rare for him not to show kindness to Tang Yue. Instead, he looked at Tang Yue with pity and reproach. “You don't need to see this servant to know. I heard that His Highness has gone out.”
“Yes, he has left the manor? Could it be that he is going to run away from home?” Tang Yue smiled awkwardly.
“This servant doesn't know. Maybe he went to do something. He still felt more sorry for his master and comforted him. Don't worry. This servant will go and ask Uncle Butler again. When Crown Prince comes back, he will be the first to inform you.”
“No need to ask. He will come back when he should come back.” Tang Yue gritted his teeth and glanced at He. “Ahem,” he said. “How about… you go and take a look for Young Master?”
He left in a hurry. Tang Yue thought that he would have to wait for a long time. Just as he was about to order someone to bring the food down and heat it up, He ran in with a panicked expression.
“What's wrong? Is he being chased by a dog?” The big wolfdog in the manor had been holding a grudge against him ever since he plucked the dog's fur. No matter how he fed it, it could not feed it well. Tang Yue's intestines turned green with regret.
Why did he have to pluck the dog's fur as a brush back then? A single misstep would bring endless hatred.
“Young master…” He cried out with a sullen face. Under Tang Yue's confused and curious gaze, he said, “There is bad news. Don't be impulsive after you hear it.”
Tang Yue's heart skipped a beat. He thought to himself, No way. Could something have happened to Crown Prince Zhao?
“Hurry up and say it. Don't waste time.”
“Yes… I just heard from the servants in the manor that His Highness… His Highness… he…” He stuttered for a long time before saying, “His Highness has brought people to Nice House.”
“What kind of place is the Harmony House? He wants to treat tonight?” If he didn't tell him about this, the news would be bad enough.
It's just that kind of place… It's better if you don't ask. When His Highness comes back, you should accompany him properly. Say a few good words and His Highness will definitely change his mind.
Tang Yue knew very well what kind of place that kind of place was. He was stunned for a while, but he still could not believe it.
“Who did you hear it from? Where is the family?”
“They are the servants guarding the second door. He said he heard it from Crown Prince personally. He just left not long ago… young master, go and chase him!”
Tang Yue was just a little stunned. He only understood where Crown Prince Zhao went when he came back to his senses.
Tang Yue would never believe that Crown Prince Zhao would give up on himself because of such a small matter. He would go to a brothel to find a man or a woman.
But why would he go to a brothel for such a good reason? Could it be that he was doing official business?
Tang Yue's heart was like a dozen ants crawling. He wanted to rush out and catch the man and ask him what he was thinking. Why did he go to a brothel for no good reason?
As a person who had no backyard, he had not thought of looking for someone for more than ten years. How could he go to a brothel at a time like this? Even if he wanted to go out, the mansion didn't lack all kinds of beautiful young men. Why did he have to go out and spend money to suffer?
Perhaps it was because he agreed with that sentence: Wild flowers on the roadside compare with the fragrance of flowers?
“Master, you are chasing after him. Do you really want to watch Crown Prince fall into someone else's embrace?”
“What's the rush? He probably hasn't even taken off his clothes in such a short time. Go and find out if His Highness is going out to do something or not… Also, find out if that young man is still in the mansion.”
Tang Yue actually wanted to ask if that young man was still alive or not. Did he ask which side he was from?
When He Yi heard this, his face turned green. “Why do you still remember that bad man? Could it be true?”
“Do you want to have a marriage with him?”
“What nonsense are you talking about? I only want to know how the Crown Prince will punish him. If it's too light, I don't mind giving him another kick.”
He secretly curled his lips. He didn't know if he would believe Tang Yue's words.
This time, he didn't let Tang Yue wait for long. He quickly ran back. His expression changed from sympathy to deep sympathy. “Young master, you have to hold on.”
“Say!” Tang Yue looked at him angrily. What kind of shocking news had scared this kid to this extent?
“I heard that His Highness went with the Zither Master in the carriage. The elder brother at the door even saw the Zither Master leaning against His Highness's clothes. If they went to the Harmony House together, could you say that they went to drink tea?” He finished his sentence in one breath and sighed deeply.
Why did he feel that his master was about to lose his favor?
The corner of Tang Yue's mouth twitched. Let's not study the authenticity of this news for now. It seemed like he was destined to be the only one to eat this meal.
