Yun Zhonghe took Jin Chengzhong, and their figures blended into the night again.
Xiao Chen was sitting in the small courtyard minding his own business, recalling what he had just seen and heard, still feeling like it was a big dream.
He slowly closed his eyes and bathed in the moonlight, but his mind kept thinking about what happened after he traveled through time like a flashlight.
At first, he was unwilling to be an ordinary eunuch, so he used his talents and wisdom to do things for Chu Yanwu.
But after experiencing Jin Chengzhong's incident and learning the true identity of Yuan Yuan, he couldn't help but feel tormented in his heart.
Obviously knowing that Chu Yanwu is not a good guy, do you still want to continue to be loyal to him and be a powerful official?
The clouds changed and time passed. Xiao Chen's heart was like a surge of waves that could not calm down for a long time.
He didn't know how long he had been sitting here. The starry sky was beautiful and the wind was gentle. It was like singing a lullaby to his ears, but he was not tired at all.
Just when he was depressed, Xiang Yichun came to report: "Sir, Concubine Shu has come to see you."
"Let her in."
I saw a woman wearing a black robe, not coming from the direction of the front door, but being taken from the direction of the back door.
She raised her eyes slightly, and the moonlight shone on half of her face. The white skin in the recent photo, and the bright red lips reflected the moonlight, making them appear plump and crystal clear.
Xiao Chen was in a daze for a moment, and couldn't help but make a joke: "No matter how beautiful the moonlight is today, it can't compare to the beauty of the empress."
Concubine Shu glared at him angrily. There was no one around, so she sat directly next to Xiao Chen.
When I brought up the jug book, I thought about having a drink to warm myself up, but I found that it was already empty.
Concubine Shu stepped forward and said, "It seems that you drank a lot. Are you worried?"
"No one knows me better than Concubine Shu~"
Here Xiao Chen straightened his body slightly, straightened his body and looked at her: "You came to me in the middle of the night, but because you missed me?"
Is not this nonsensical?
She clearly knew that this moonlit night made people miss her the most. If she hadn't been pregnant with the moon, she wouldn't have been so anxious that she would have run here in the middle of the night.
There was no wine, so Concubine Shu poured two cups of tea and handed one cup in front of him.
Even though Xiao Chen appeared free and easy on the surface, the sadness in his eyes could not be ignored.
Having known him for such a long time, Xiao Chen always acted like he was strategizing, but now he seems to be very little in control, seeing him doing something scandalous.
Concubine Shu showed some interest, and couldn't help but joked: "It turns out that I want to see you so uncontrollably today. It seems that I have arrangements for attending lectures, and I am just waiting for me to solve your problems."
Concubine Shu raised her chin slightly and stared at him with interest: "Tell me, what can make our Governor Xiao worry?"
Seeing her look like a psychological counselor, Xiao Chen couldn't laugh or cry.
But it's a good idea, there's no point in holding things in your mind alone, it just adds to your worries.
Tell someone you trust, and you might be able to find new answers and directions.
After sighing, Xiao Chen sighed: "I am indeed worried about my current situation."
"In front of me, there is Chen Jin who is forcing me, and in the middle there are eight aristocratic families who are vying to win over me. I am wary of insulting Xing Cun, but Zhang Dongyang regards me as a member of Chen Jin's party and is hostile."
"You said that no matter which way I lean now, it's inappropriate and I'll offend other people. It could easily lead to death."
Xiao Chen really couldn't figure it out, "I just want to make a name for myself and live well. Why do you think it's so difficult?"
Judging from his current situation, Zhu Bajie looks in the mirror and is not a human being, that is, he is in a dilemma!
I originally thought that no one would be offended by my pedantic dealings.
But now that I think about it carefully, I am now being fought over by them as a piece of cake. If a bowl of water is not balanced, anyone will be offended!
Concubine Shu looked at Xiao Chen distressedly, her eyes flashing with helplessness.
She suddenly said: "The situation in the imperial court is chaotic. If you are exposed to it, it is like being exposed to a mountain of swords and a sea of fire."
"In my opinion, the best policy is to leave and stay away from these power struggles."
"Anyway, you are rich and famous now. If you take me away with you, you will be happy even if you wander around the world. Why do you have to look for trouble here?"
Concubine Shu was a little excited. On the one hand, she yearned for a normal life, but on the other hand, she didn't want anything to happen to Xiao Chen?
How can one escape the power struggle so easily?
Besides, Xiao Chen also has a fatal weakness, that is, being a fake eunuch.
Once someone finds out and gets the handle, he will become a lamb to be slaughtered.
Xiao Chen looked at Concubine Shu's bright eyes, and the color of vitality in them was self-evident.
He remained silent and did not answer, but he felt unconvinced in his heart.
Suddenly, he suddenly jumped up, and all his emotions were accumulated at this moment: "The method you mentioned can certainly protect yourself wisely, but I am not willing to do it."
"I put so much thought into Chen Jin's work, and was treated as a swordsman by Chu Yanwu, and I had to show flattery in front of those people."
"After suffering such humiliation, I finally became the governor of the East Factory, but in the end I had to leave everything behind..."
What is a man without ambition?
He can leave this place of right and wrong, but it also means that his previous business has come to nothing.
Concubine Shu looked at him eagerly, her words of persuasion stuck in her mouth.
She stood up slowly, and gently placed a jade hand on his shoulder. Her eyes suddenly became a little more determined: "If you are not willing to give in, then just kill Chen Jin, and you will be the nine thousand years old!"
"Gain the emperor's trust, secretly win over the powerful, and turn the emperor into a puppet!"
"If you are unwilling to be mediocre, then achieve great things!"
His voice was clear, but it was more like an encouragement than his previous obedient escape.
Xiao Chen couldn't help but look at her delicate face, her sharp eyes bursting with murderous intent. He knew that Concubine Shu was not joking.
And these words seemed to open up his two channels of Ren and Du, falling steadily on the apex of his heart.
Xiao Chen couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Hahaha, it's so exciting and bold. Things that I don't even dare to think about came out of your mouth!"
Unless he comes from a scholarly family, he is knowledgeable and sensible, and his literary skills have always been weak.
But I didn't expect that a woman like her could actually say such shocking words, which indeed somewhat subverted Xiao Chen's understanding of her.
Concubine Shu raised her lips slightly, "Aren't you just waiting for me to say these words?"
"Actually, you already have the answer when you are struggling. You just need a more affirmative voice to support you, and I am willing to be this guide!"
Concubine Shu walked leisurely around him and talked eloquently, "When you mentioned your situation just now, you knew that you would either rise up or live a free life."
"Based on what I know about you, you will never be willing to choose the latter."
"In that case, let me help you make the decision!"
