Chapter 133 Departure to Qingzhou
Chapter 133 Departure to Qingzhou
In the south of the city, the residence of the fifth prince Zhou Heng.
He was a prince who was even more idle than Zhou Chuxuan. He usually just fought crickets and walked birds. He would barely attend court, but not every time, unless envoys from other countries came or Emperor Wu had something important to do.
Emperor Wu basically let his son do whatever he wanted, and his attitude was the same as he had towards the foolish Zhou Chuxuan.
"Sixth brother, why are you visiting my residence?"
Zhou Heng was surprised to see Zhou Chuxuan coming. He gently patted the beautiful woman in his arms and said, "Go ahead. I think my sixth brother wants to talk to me about something!"
"Here!"
Soon, Zhou Chuxuan and Zhou Heng were the only ones left in the room.
Zhou Chuxuan took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "Fifth Brother's mansion is a bit quieter than mine. When I have money in the future, I will definitely build a mansion next to Fifth Brother's!"
Zhou Heng showed no sign of modesty and laughed heartily, "That's right! That's right! Although my mansion isn't as quiet and peaceful as the inner palace, I've cleared out the surrounding residents. With some money, I can build some gardens around it, and some brothels and theaters for my own entertainment. Wouldn't that be even better?"
"Good, fifth brother is really free and easy!" Zhou Chuxuan couldn't help but give a thumbs up.
"Well, the throne won't be mine anyway. I don't have any ambitions to rule the world, and I don't want to have so many worries. I just want to be free and happy and live my life happily!"
Zhou Heng leaned back in his chair, stretched his legs, and then stretched vigorously: "Free! Free! But you, Sixth Brother, you are not enjoying yourself in your mansion. Why do you come to me today if you have something to ask?"
"It's nothing serious, I just wanted to come and visit my fifth brother!"
Looking at Zhou Chuxuan's smiling face, Zhou Heng sneered and said, "Sixth brother, although I, your fifth brother, don't really care about the affairs of the court and officialdom, I'm not a fool!"
"We brothers never come to each other for no good reason! Tell me, if you need help with money, it's okay. Although your fifth brother doesn't have much, he still has a few taels of silver!"
Zhou Chuxuan smiled faintly: "If that's the case, then I'll tell you!"
"Fifth brother, I'm sure you know that I told this old man to find evidence from the Lotus Village within a month to prove their innocence, but now half a month has passed and there's still no progress!"
Zhou Heng glanced at Zhou Chuxuan in surprise: "Sixth brother, I, your fifth brother, can't help you with this matter!"
"Fifth Brother, I'm not here to ask for your help. It's just that your family has a lot of people, and I want to go with you to the area near Lotus Mountain. On the one hand, I want to use your manpower to investigate, and on the other hand, Fifth Brother, you can just treat it as a trip to enjoy the mountains and rivers!"
Zhou Heng nearly spit out the hot tea in his mouth when he heard this. "Sixth brother, you are kidding me, right? You know how lazy your fifth brother is, and you actually want me to leave the capital with you?"
"If you need help, I can lend you a few dozen of my skilled servants. I don't want to go. I'd rather stay in the capital!"
Zhou Heng shook his head repeatedly, his brows filled with a lazy look, showing no sign of anything unusual. However, Zhou Chuxuan did not give up: "Fifth brother, you know, I haven't been in a good mood recently, and the other royal brothers don't think much of me!"
"Now, only seeing Fifth Brother's open-minded attitude towards life can cheer me up!"
"By the way, Fifth Brother, I also heard that Lotus Mountain is a land of fish and rice, and it's teeming with beautiful women! Why don't we go there..."
This time, before Zhou Chuxuan finished speaking, Zhou Heng had already stood up from his chair, drank the hot tea on the table, looked at Zhou Chuxuan strangely and said, "Sixth brother, aren't we leaving yet? What are you waiting for?"
Zhou Chuxuan: "......"
"Still going to Qingzhou?"
Elsewhere, Yang Li, having learned of Zhou Chuxuan's movements, slammed his fist on the table, his eyes gleaming with a strange light: "Hasn't he already sent Murong Xue there once? Why is he going again? Could it be that he has found some clues?"
The guards whispered, "Your Highness, do we still need to go?"
"go with!"
Yang Li looked ahead with a scorching gaze, his eyes filled with coldness. "Give orders immediately. This time we'll travel light and don't let anyone know!"
The guard said with some embarrassment: "Your Highness, you are the Crown Prince of the Wu Dynasty. How can you hide your movements from the various forces in the capital?"
"Do you have a pig brain? Can't you move?" Yang Li shouted angrily, "Go find a substitute for me to lie in the bedroom in my place. If anyone comes, tell them I have caught a cold!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
After the guards left, Yang Li looked towards the secret room in the corner and sneered, "Xu Hanyan, Zhou Chuxuan, you two really left me some good stuff!"
There is a secret passage behind this secret room, which leads to the outside of the palace. He can change his clothes and leave the capital quietly. This time he wants to see what Zhou Chuxuan is up to.
After Zhou Chuxuan returned to the mansion, he called Su Qiaoer and Murong Xue together and announced that they were going to Qingzhou.
Murong Xue was stunned for a moment: "Your Highness, hasn't the clue to that matter been cut off? What else are we going to do?"
Zhou Chuxuan didn't explain too much: "This time, let's be a little extravagant and get a more luxurious carriage. Also, hire some maids and give each of them ten taels of silver!"
Murong Xue slowly widened her eyes and looked at Zhou Chuxuan: "Your Highness, even if you wanted to indulge in pleasure, you wouldn't have to make such a big fuss and run to Qingzhou, right? Isn't the capital city enough for you to have fun?"
Zhou Chuxuan looked at Murong Xue speechlessly. Is there something seriously wrong with this woman's brain? Or is Su Qiaoer so well-behaved and obedient that she just follows his orders.
"Just do it, I have my own plans!"
"Hmph! You already know that it's a waste, yet you still do this!" Murong Xue couldn't help but roll her eyes at Zhou Chuxuan, feeling very puzzled by his behavior.
"Your Highness, we are here!"
As they were talking, Han Bin and Ma Sandao appeared at the door, followed by Su Hongye, but Su Hongye's hands were handcuffed again.
"And bring them with you?" Murong Xue was surprised, not knowing what Zhou Chuxuan was going to do.
Zhou Chuxuan smiled and looked at Su Hongye: "It seems that Master Su is still a little resistant!"
Before this, he had told Han Bin and Ma Sandao that if Su Hongye dared to resist or refuse to cooperate, they should just lock her up in handcuffs.
If you still don’t cooperate, you can directly threaten me with the equality of all beings.
That day, he demonstrated the power of AK on the training ground in order to intimidate Su Hongye.
