Chapter 468 Zheng Burke and Duan Yuyan

"Keeping sugar in your mouth all the time is bad for your teeth. Eat a few more bites and swallow them. There will be more later, so feel free to eat as much as you want." Zhou Chang was undecided when he entered the palace and wanted to ask others, but unfortunately he didn't get any answer.

In the past, no matter who became the crown prince among Prince Rong, Prince Duan, and Prince Xian, it was none of Prince Yi's business. But if he could choose, Zhou Chang only hoped that it would not be Prince Duan. He did not have much idea about Prince Rong and Prince Xian.

But now, Prince Yi is about to be brought in, and apart from Prince Yi, the remaining candidates are only Prince Rong and Prince Xian.

If you insist on not wanting Prince Yi to participate, then given the current situation, it is impossible for him not to take sides.

However, if I had to choose between King Rong and King Xian...

If it were before, there would be no need to hesitate, but now it has really become a century-long problem.

Feng Suo swallowed the candy obediently and started chewing it.

Zhou Chang's throat had not yet recovered, and seeing this scene, his throat became dry: "Forget it, I'll take you back to Yunqin Palace and ask for a drink of water by the way."

Feng Shuo was very happy: "Great, it's rare for Brother Nine to come over."

The two men turned and walked out of the Imperial Garden, and Shouhou and Yuanjie followed.

Feng Suo quickly finished eating the two sugar figures in his hand, and suddenly whispered: "Nine Brother, I actually don't like Brother Rong."

"Ah? Why?" Zhou Chang was surprised. He had never noticed it before.

Feng Suo said in a voice that only the two of them could hear clearly: "It feels a little fake."

"Huh?" Zhou Chang thought he didn't hear clearly.

How do children know what is fake?

Feng Suo turned around and glanced at the group of people following him ten steps away. He no longer had the candy figures in his hands, but he still felt unsatisfied.

"Don't eat it yet, otherwise you won't be able to eat later. Save those for dinner, they're all yours." Zhou Chang was also worried that it would be bad for the child to eat too much candy at one time.

Feng Suo turned around and continued the previous topic like a little adult: "Once I saw a young eunuch being beaten with a stick for some unknown reason, so I went over to take a look out of curiosity. As a result, I found that Brother Rong was hiding on the side and peeking from a distance. Seeing that the young eunuch was about to be beaten to death, Brother Rong stepped forward to stop him and saved the young eunuch's life. The young eunuch thanked Brother Rong profusely and said that he would work like a cow or a horse in the next life to repay him."

"It's nothing, it's just that Prince Rong is kind-hearted." Zhou Chang didn't hear anything wrong with it.

The only problem is that the "beating with a stick" that Feng Suo mentioned is probably a severe punishment like a cane in court, otherwise it wouldn't be so severe that it could kill someone.

Feng Suo raised his head and glanced at Zhou Chang with a look of disdain: "Why is Brother Nine so stupid?"

"What's wrong?" Zhou Chang couldn't figure out what was wrong.

Feng Suo acted like a "teacher" and patiently persuaded him: "Brother Rong saw it before me. I was watching from behind for a while. If he wanted to save the eunuch, why didn't he step forward at the beginning and save the eunuch from suffering? Why did he wait until he was about to be beaten to death before stepping forward?"

"Uh..." Zhou Chang didn't expect Feng Suo to have such meticulous thinking at such a young age.

Feng Suo further explained: "That's because the young eunuch was about to be beaten to death and his life was in danger. If Brother Rong went there, it would be a life-saving favor. If he went earlier, it would just be a way to avoid punishment. Wouldn't it be a big favor?"

Zhou Chang's ears echoed with Gu Yan's words from that day, in which he said that Prince Rong was good at winning people's hearts.

She didn't care at the time.

And now, it felt like a door in my heart was kicked open, and the cold wind blew in.

Feng Suo looked at Zhou Chang's expression and licked the sugar residue on his lips: "Brother Jiu, do you not believe it? These teachers have said that Duke Zhuang of Zheng defeated Duke Duan in Yan, and that's what he did. It's just that Brother Rong did it the other way around."

"'Zheng Bo defeated Duan Yu Yan' isn't what it means, is it?" Zhou Chang suspected that she had read all the books in her previous life in vain. Why didn't she remember such an interpretation?

Feng Suo was also unconvinced: "Why not? That's what I meant. Sir, you said that although Duke Zhuang is wise, he lacks kindness..."

"Sir, which sir? Is that Mr. Chen, the president of the Hanlin Academy?" Zhou Chang, or rather Prince Yi Fengming, didn't recognize many people in the Hanlin Academy. The only one he knew was Chen He.

Feng Suo shook his head: "Mr. Chen would never say that. He always talks about the great principle of 'all under heaven should be one and all for the public'."

"What he said makes sense. You should listen to more such truths." Zhou Chang said this, but he recalled the scene of horse racing in Xianwang City just now.

"You have to listen to the big principles, but to be a good person you must not only understand the big principles, you also have to know the little tricks. This is what my mother said, so I'm learning them all." Feng Suo grinned.

As expected, Zhou Chang couldn't help but sigh how important early education is. Feng Suo was so lucky to follow Concubine Qin, Sun.

Unlike her and Prince Yi Fengming in their previous lives, who were limited by their environment since childhood, many truths were only figured out by themselves after they grew up and experienced a lot of hard work.

If you think about it carefully, everyone has learned the story of "Duke Zheng defeats Duan in Yan", but it is rare that Feng Suo is so smart that he can use it in reverse.

"After you tell me these words today, don't tell anyone else, okay?" Zhou Chang put his arm around Feng Suo's shoulders and pulled him into his arms. As they were talking, they saw Yunqin Palace.

Feng Suo said proudly: "Needless to say, mother said that brother Rong is very cunning, brother Duan is arrogant, brother Xian is ambitious, only brother Jiu is the best, he is kind-hearted."

"Did Empress Qin tell you all this?" Zhou Chang was so shocked that he stopped in his tracks.

"Of course not. It was when my uncle came to the harem to see my mother and they were talking, and I overheard it." Feng Suo blinked mischievously, "I told it to my ninth brother because I wanted him to know that he and I are the best friends."

"Alas, it turns out that the children think he is a naive little white rabbit." Zhou Chang was speechless and helpless.

However, why is it that Concubine Qin Sun, a woman deep in the palace, can judge people so accurately?

How did she know that Prince Rong was so cunning?

While the two were talking, the people in Yunqin Palace had already seen them go in to report.

After a while, the head maid came out to greet them.

In the past, whenever Prince Yi went to the palace to see Feng Suo, he would not usually come to Yunqin Palace, because the harem etiquette was complicated and required multiple reports. Unless there was a special summons, or there was no other way to meet in the Imperial Garden, it was best not to meet with the women in the harem.

But today, Zhou Chang wanted to meet Concubine Qin, Sun.

When Concubine Qin heard that Prince Yi came back with Feng Suo, she also personally went out to the main hall to welcome him.

As soon as they met, Zhou Chang bowed first, and Concubine Qin Sun congratulated Prince Yi on the posthumous title of Concubine Lan.

Zhou Chang couldn't say anything about this matter, those who understood would understand.
