Wait until the two of them return to the room.
Xiao Chen was not in the mood to continue and closed his eyes to rest.
Ji Hongluan didn't bother, just walked back and rubbed his shoulders.
After a while, she asked again:
"When you go to court tomorrow, have you thought about how to impeach Zhou Tianfu?"
Xiao Chen said with a smile:
"Impeaching Zhou Tianfu is nothing more than attacking his sore spots."
"Actually, the key issue is not this, but Chu Yanwu's attitude after the incident is over."
"Chu Yanwu's attitude?"
Ji Hongluan was stunned for a moment: "You helped him get rid of Zhou Tianfu, which can be regarded as a meritorious service... I feel that even if he doesn't reward you, he should let you take charge of Dongchang again."
"If you lose, I believe Chu Yanwu will protect you. After all, he doesn't have many available people."
She also deduced this because she recently collected some information in the East Field.
Xiao Chen shook his head:
"You're thinking too much."
"Chu Yanwu is not an ordinary person in power, he is the emperor of the day, the emperor of Chu."
"His suspicions are beyond your imagination. Moreover, the country of Chu is so big and has so many talents, there is no guarantee that no one can match his psychology! The reason why I am important is because I am bolder."
Ji Hongluan didn't think Xiao Chen was wrong.
The fact that Xiao Chen dared to attack major aristocratic families and academies in Jiangdong Road was enough to show that he was "bold."
However, she also heard something different: "How do I feel? Do you think Chu Yanwu might be willing to kill the donkey? He shouldn't be so immoral, right?"
"If you talk about morality with him, that's really outrageous! The so-called morality in the emperor's mind is always aimed at other people."
Xiao Chen smiled: "But don't worry, there are prerequisites for killing the donkey!"
Ji Hongluan had a thought in her mind and asked thoughtfully: "If you lose, they will kill the donkey, right?"
"really."
Xiao Chen smiled coldly: "Chen Jin and Chu Yanwu actually don't think I can win. They just prepared for the worst, so they forced me to go to court."
"But it's a pity..."
Having said this, Xiao Chen smiled secretly.
Ji Hongluan asked: "What's the pity?"
"It's a pity, I won't lose."
A cold light bloomed in Xiao Chen's eyes: "Even if it's just for that one breath, I will never lose!"
Ji Hongluan was silent for a moment:
"Chu Yanwu is worse than I thought."
"Originally I thought he was just a mediocre emperor, but now I see that he is not only mediocre, but also cowardly!"
Xiao Chen chuckled: "If you carefully study the period when he ascended the throne, you will probably understand why he is like this today!"
"Born in a deep palace, raised in the hands of a woman, after ascending to the throne, he was severely manipulated by the elders of the two dynasties, and he did not take power until he reached adulthood!"
"His desire for power is very common... but he can be described as ambitious and talented. Letting him become the emperor would be a tragedy for Chu."
Ji Hongluan was filled with indignation: "When I traveled around the world, I often heard people everywhere complaining. People like him are really not worthy of being an emperor! You might as well rebel!"
"This way you don't have to suffer from that dog emperor's jealousy!"
Xiao Chen also smiled after hearing this.
What Ji Hongluan said actually reflected her sincerity towards herself.
He gathered Ji Hongluan into his arms again and said softly:
"Don't say that either."
Ji Hongluan hammered his back:
"Why can't I say that?"
"The people are in dire straits, and officials are corrupt. From the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty to the lowest level officials, the only one who is reliable is you, the eunuch!"
"If you become the emperor, not only what will this country become, but at least the people can be human beings."
Xiao Chen sighed.
As a traveler from modern times, he actually misses the prosperity and beauty of modern society from time to time.
Maybe, some people always complain that they can't live in a big house, drive a luxury car, but compared to the people of this era, ordinary people in modern times are really happy.
When he went south, it was not that he had not seen ordinary people who had their land taken away from them and were forced to sell their sons and daughters, and it was not that he had not seen tenants who were starved to death and were so hungry...
Hasn't he ever thought about changing?
Of course I have thought about it.
But if you are not careful on this road, your body will be shattered.
He sighed and said: "Everything has to go as it should. This is good for everyone."
Ji Hongluan nodded thoughtfully and hugged Xiao Chen tightly again.
Xiao Chen held Ji Hongluan in his arms, but looked out the window.
Across the endless ridges of roofs, he saw the dark blue sky, dotted with stars one after another, and could also see the moon with its cool radiance.
The world was vast, and he felt his own insignificance in a physical sense.
However, he also knew that a spark would eventually start a prairie fire.
At that time, the roaring flames will illuminate the dark sky.
"Crack!"
A slight sound came, Xiao Chen's ears twitched and his eyes glanced over.
I saw a black shadow flashing through the woods nearby.
Xiao Chen's eyes narrowed.
this……
But he wasn't very nervous.
Because this feeling is very familiar.
During this period, whether he was fighting against a killer or encountering a crisis, he could feel that someone was protecting him.
That person will not leave until there is no danger to him.
Xiao Chen chuckled and thought to himself:
"It seems that my life is still very valuable..."
Moreover, Xiao Chen vaguely guessed something based on some recent events.
The magic skill of "Shrinking the Yang into the Abdomen" that he first obtained was not from Gu Nanfeng, but from someone else.
It was most likely the person who secretly protected him who gave it to him!
After being gentle with Ji Hongluan for a while, he went to rest.
He still needs to recharge his batteries, otherwise he won't have the energy to spray Zhou Tianfu tomorrow morning.
The next morning, morning.
All civil and military officials filed into the palace as before.
Chu Yanwu also asked everyone to start playing as a routine.
Xiao Chen coughed and stepped out of the queue.
The cultural relic officials also focused their attention on him.
Xiao Chen is no longer the governor of the East Factory. Under normal circumstances, there is no need to come to court.
When he goes to court, he is bound to want to cause trouble again!
Zhou Tianfu spoke in a nonchalant manner:
"Isn't this our Eunuch Xiao? If you remember correctly, you should be resting at home now!"
"But I can understand..."
Xiao Chen chuckled: "What do you understand?"
Zhou Tianfu twitched the corner of his mouth and said coldly:
"You just want your true life, that's why you come here at the slightest sign of trouble!"
"But the truth is, you are too impatient. It's not clear who will win this time!"
