Chapter 36.2
He didn’t know if it was because of the medicinal bath, but the hot water scalded his whole body. Or maybe it was because he really sealed the acupoints of both eyes, causing the eyes to be pitch black and unable to see anything.
A strange feeling started to ferment in his heart……
Then Zong Luo suddenly realized– yes, this was already his third life.
Just the same as the people in this world not knowing that he was actually a book transmigrator, they were just people inside the book. People in this life would never know that the Third Prince, who was famous all over the world in his previous life, finally killed himself under his own Imperial City absurdly because of an imperial edict.
No one also knew about his rebirth, the wind and rain he experienced in his previous life, the turbulent waves, and those grievances that he had nowhere to vent. The only person who knew……..was his most hated rival.
It was difficult to describe this sudden feeling of loneliness.
But in the next second, Yu Beizhou suddenly leaned close to his ear, and pulled him back from his distant thoughts.
“So, I can only wrong Senior brother to wait, now is not the time.”
The general in red was sitting on the floor, resting his chin with one hand, while squinting his eyes, “It’s like singing an excerpt, when it reaches its climax, with–a–bang, give senior brother the pleasant surprise, that’ll be more interesting.”
Meaning to not fight him now.
May as well, if he really did it, he, who was only wearing an inner garment and had his acupoints sealed, would be the only one who’d suffer in the end.
Strange to say, as long as they met together, the first thing they did was fight. It seemed that this was the first time that they’d sat down and talked peacefully like this.
If it wasn’t for Zong Luo’s inability to fight Yu Beizhou now, they might have already been fighting a while ago.
Zong Luo: “…….”
He was unexpectedly interrupted, thus he no longer felt that sentimental.
The prince in white paused, and suddenly asked, “Why do you think I will rebel?”
Yu Beizhou was surprised and said, “Why do I think you won’t rebel? Don’t I know what kind of person you are? Senior brother, those superficially calm and humble, who love all living beings facade, it can deceive others. Do you still want to conceal the truth from me?”
Zong Luo got stuck.
The person who knows you best will always be your opponent.
Just as he was well aware of Yu Beizhou’s inner distortion, Yu Beizhou also knew that he was rebellious at heart.
Zong Luo pulled back his hair, “Then why is it necessary for you to ask this question? Today’s son of heaven wants my life, the body and skin are given by the parents and killing oneself is simply returning them back. What’s wrong with that?”
Yes, yes, that’s right, but it’s not the answer he wants to hear.
Yu Beizhou thought for a while, and then said, “Everyone thought you would rebel.”
Zong Luo went silent for a while, “…including Emperor Yuan?”
Yu Beizhou said nothing.
It’s a pity that Zong Luo had his back to him and couldn’t see his expression.
“If you had taken Zhanlu and went back to the borders, pulled the flag then turned back, you could still bring a hundred thousand troops back to fight with the garrison guarding the Imperial City. Those garrison troops do not fight at ordinary times and only eat away their salaries, and yes, you still might also not be able to win against them. Don’t you wonder why Emperor Yuan wants to force you away, are you not curious why there is such an imperial edict……even before Emperor Yuan collapses, you can ask clearly. Quitting the chessboard like a rogue, it made all my preparations useless.”
“Senior brother, at the end, is it because you’re unwilling…..or is it that you didn’t dare to?”
“Shut up!”
The prince in white let out a low growl.
He swept his hand back, with a sharp wind on his fingertips, “The Great Witch is on his way, if you don’t want to get into trouble, you’d better get out of here now.”
Zong Luo didn’t know why Yu Beizhou suddenly asked him this question.
Him answering to Yu Beizhou’s questions, it was because he realized that this stinky younger brother was at least a person who had experienced his whole life with him. He lost his head for a moment while soaking and felt a strange amount of sympathy for him for some reason.
But now, Zong Luo only felt that he was a fool.
Sure enough, it’s better to strangle Yu Beizhou to death.
“Ah, Senior brother, are you angry?”
Yu Beizhou grinned and grabbed his hand, as if fearing that the world would not be chaotic.
He fondled the cold temperature on his fingertips, narrowed his eyes comfortably, and the white fur cape on his shoulders only made him look like a lazy white tiger waiting to be groomed.
While obviously being soaked in the medicinal bath, the temperature on Zong Luo’s body was still low. Just holding it like this made Yu Beizhou’s mind miraculously calm down, as did with the restlessness that had never dissipated, which was even more effective than the thousand-year-old cold jade bed he collected in his previous life.
Like an antidote that belongs to him alone.
“Senior brother, you are still as aggressive as before, just like those times when you looked at me in the Ghost Valley.”
Yu Beizhou sighed with deep feelings, and suddenly changed the topic, “However, even I have never thought of it, that the senior brother who was so decisive in killing and attacking on the battlefield, would actually be like this deep in his heart…….someone who is craving for family affection.”
In the next second, Zong Luo grabbed his wrist with his backhand out of embarrassment and anger, and suddenly exerted force.
Plop—
The sound of water splashing was especially harsh in the silent wing room.
Yuan Jia, who was guarding outside, was startled, and was about to ask questions when he suddenly saw someone coming.
Seeing the man’s iron mask, he quickly stood up and said respectfully, “Your Excellency, the Great Witch.”
Inside the door, Zong Luo, who had just pulled Yu Beizhou into the pool, became startled, and stepped on the latter who wanted to float up, to the bottom of the pool.
