Chapter 1848 Cynical sarcasm 2
"Brother means..." Chu Ye deliberately looked at the prince with a confused look, "I hope my brother will forgive me. I really don't understand what my brother means."
Chu Ye's confusion fell in the prince's eyes, and it was not something that was particularly surprising.
The position of a prince of a country is not something that a prince like Chu Ye, who has been neglected and ridiculed since childhood, can imagine.
In the prince's heart, the third prince may be able to compete with him, such as Chu Ye and Chu Qi, one has an unknown fate and the other has a humble background.
Such people are not qualified to compete for these things. Their greatest use is that they are only worthy of being a chess piece of their own and giving themselves some strength to compete for the throne.
"Does the Seventh Brother really understand these?" The prince looked at Chu Ye with a little sarcasm and ridicule, as if he was looking at a beggar. "The father has not many sons, and after all, only a few brothers are the ones. Now the third brother has been trying to compete with me for the throne. If the seventh brother is unintentional, why should he come and help me?"
In the prince's opinion, his willingness to take the initiative to invite someone like Chu Ye to his side is a gift to him. Chu Ye should have agreed without thinking, and he is even less qualified to refuse these things.
Because of this idea, the prince looked at Chu Ye with a look of anticipation.
Who knew that Chu Ye frowned and thought for a while before slowly saying, "I thank my brother for looking down on me so much, but I really don't have the idea to get involved in these things. I'm sorry, brother should look for someone else."
He saw the anger in the prince's eyes and continued before the prince spoke, "Of course, I will never reveal what my brother said to me today. Please don't worry about this."
After Chu Ye said this, the prince was not angry, but he still had an indescribable anger in his heart. He could only snort heavily, "I respect you so much that I would say these words to you. I didn't expect you to be so ignorant!"
In the prince's mind, Chu Ye's rejection of his invitation was indeed an act of ignorance.
Not only was Chu Ye not angry, he also smiled and said with a plea. "Brother is right, it is because I don't have the blessing to help my elder brother. This time, the reason why my father asked me to come to Jiangnan to find news about my elder brother and the third prince was really lucky. After I went back, I explained the matter here clearly to my father, and I would definitely not become a stumbling block for my elder brother. Don't worry about this."
The prince was so angry and helpless that these words were said.
People said bluntly that they had no interest in fighting for the throne, and even expressed their unwillingness to get involved in these things.
If he still wants to make things difficult for Chu Ye, it would be a bit too much to think about it.
"Seventh brother really planned this way?" Seeing that Chu Ye was not in trouble, the prince felt that it might be a good thing if he could really go to the fiefdom after he knew about Jiangnan. "I'm afraid that if the seventh brother thinks this way, General Gu doesn't think this way."
Emperor Longzong always had suspicion and suspicion towards Gu Zhao, and the prince grew up by his side for many years, which led to the prince having no trust or favorable feelings towards the Gu family.
