Du Fengju wanted to say something else, but seeing Zheng Ji's smiling face, he didn't know what to say for a moment.
At this time, he belatedly remembered that he seemed to have just come out of the shower.
Then, wouldn’t His Highness... wouldn’t it be...
It was already late at night, and he had taken off the mask he usually wore, revealing his true face.
In other words, he is the most real him now.
The tips of his suddenly red ears and his unconscious eyes all fell into Zheng Ji's eyes.
At this moment, Zheng Ji's heart was filled with excitement.
She moved her hand hanging by her side, and she couldn't help but want to reach out and touch Du Fengju's face, and her eyes couldn't help but reveal that greedy and predatory look.
Although Du Fengju had no martial arts skills, his perception was extremely sharp, and he immediately noticed something was different. He subconsciously looked up at Zheng Ji, and immediately saw the undisguised greed and encroachment in his eyes.
This familiar look, Your Highness, is here again...
Seeing Zheng Ji like this, Du Fengju's heart beat faster and his mouth suddenly felt dry.
Such His Highness made him feel as if His Highness would pounce on him at the next moment.
He knew he should stay away, but he didn't want to move, and there was even an unspeakable joy in his heart.
Zheng Ji never imagined that Fengju would have such a moment, and that she could see Fengju like this.
Fengju, are you being shy? It turns out that the phoenix sentence when you are shy is like this.
When she saw Fengju in her previous life, Fengju could not change his face even if a mountain collapsed in front of him. He looked calm and calm, as if he was not affected by anything.
Little did he know that Feng Ju, who had not yet reached the crown, could be so innocent and childish.
So good, so good!
She couldn't help but sigh once again that luckily she was able to discover so many beautiful things again, and the smile on her lips became deeper and deeper.
Seeing Zheng Ji looking at him with a smile, the greed in his eyes gradually faded away, which made Du Fengju feel much more comfortable and couldn't help but laugh.
He didn't know what would happen in the future, but His Highness would always look at him from time to time as if he wanted to take him as his own.
The strange thing is that I don't feel disgusted...
This is so weird, it doesn't look like him at all!
Countless thoughts were rolling and surging in his heart, but he suppressed them all and just smiled at Zheng Ji.
For some reason, he didn't want to talk, and he couldn't bear to disturb the two people's interaction at this moment.
In the end, it was Zheng Ji who took the lead to break the silence: "Fengju, why did you let Shen Chen come to this palace?"
She still wanted to know this question.
"Don't you really need someone around Your Highness? Shen Chen can be used. He is good at making weapons and can help His Highness in the future."
Shen Chen gained a lot of strength from the bed crossbow he developed previously, which is why he transferred Shen Chen from Shannan Road to Jingzhao.
In Shannan Road, Shen Chen could indeed develop weapons without any distractions, but after Du Fengju returned to Jingzhao, he realized that Shen Chen's mere ability to develop weapons was not enough.
Shen Chen does have a talent, but this talent is too lethal, so he must have people around him who can protect him.
Du Fengju had previously thought that since his adoptive father could protect Shen Shen, he would naturally be able to sink as well, until he met His Highness Chang Ding.
His Highness Chang Ding is in a position that is more suitable to protect Shen Shen than him, and Shen Shen will definitely play a greater role by her side.
He didn't know how far His Highness could go, but he hoped that His Highness would go further than anyone expected, and he believed this very much.
He took a few steps toward the window, getting closer to Zheng Ji, and then said: "Your Highness, this is not just because of you. In fact, this is more out of my selfishness."
Shen Chen does have extraordinary abilities and can indeed help His Highness, but there are countless talented and capable people in the dynasty, and Shen Chen is just one of them.
Just one of them.
He believed that once His Highness sat in that position, there would be countless available talents and countless trustworthy people around him, but the friendship that started in the early days and the friendship that started in difficult times were different.
Only Shen Chen appears next to His Highness from this moment on. No matter how many trustworthy people there are in the future, Shen Chen's status will be different.
At that time, Shen Chen can truly focus on developing weapons and do what he wants to do.
"Your Highness, Shen Chen was left to me by my adoptive father. I am responsible for him. This is my selfish intention. Only if Your Highness takes him from Guichang, Your Highness will become more familiar with him, and he will be properly placed in the future. , I have fulfilled my adoptive father’s wish.”
He had no intention of hiding this selfish intention from His Highness.
Of course Zheng Ji could understand what he wanted to express.
If she hadn't had the experience in her previous life, she might have agreed with Feng Ju's statement.
However, she lived an extra life and already knew what Shen Chen was like later on, so she became more aware of what Feng Ju did for her at this moment.
Although he said he was doing it out of selfishness, she knew better that if it weren't for her need at this moment, Shen Chen would definitely still be in Shannan Road.
Seeing her silence, Du Fengju thought for a while and said with a smile: "Your Highness, we are of the same mind and we are conspiring together. Why should Your Highness care about this matter?"
Zheng Ji nodded, still looking at Du Fengju intently, his eyes always full of smiles.
She understood everything Feng Ju said, and her heart became more and more at ease.
Du Fengju looked away slightly, feeling that the other person's eyes were like fire, almost burning him.
Your Highness... it's really, really... to look at people like this...
He tried his best to adjust his breath and deliberately caused another incident: "Your Highness, you have Cao and Shen Chen by your side now. There are still two people left. Is there anyone who can choose?"
Of course, he has other people in the martial arts pavilion, but they are not the most suitable candidates.
Unlike Shen Chen, who would let him be placed next to His Highness without hesitation.
More importantly, His Highness has not moved yet. He must have made some arrangements in his mind, right?
Sure enough, Zheng Ji replied: "I have already thought about the remaining two candidates, so there is no rush."
Du Fengju knew very well that what His Highness said "not in a hurry" meant that he would not say it now.
No matter how much he asks, he won't know the answer to the things His Highness doesn't want to talk about.
He was not that eager to know about these two candidates.
"Fengju, what's going on with Dou Shiyuan? You invited him to come over, but the master didn't object?"
Grand Tutor Du Tong was loyal to both the emperor and the court. He had his own set of principles and was quite stubborn at times. He would never look back until he hit the wall.
She has already fully experienced this.
The reason why Du Tong helped her in the previous life was because he was extremely disappointed and saw a glimmer of hope from her, so he risked his life to help her.
But now, Du Tong just ignores the affairs of the court, and his father still relies heavily on Du Tong.
With Du Tong's temperament, he would allow Fengju to interact with court officials. This was something that would never have happened in his previous life.
How is this going?
