Chapter 101

Lu Yuchen raised his eyes and stared at Ding Shichang, waiting for his answer.

"Your Highness, Your Majesty and Lord Jiang attach great importance to this matter, especially regarding Zhou Zexun's matter. It's not that I don't want to do it, it's just that this matter is too risky. If you are not careful, it will be a serious crime of losing your head." ah!"

"So, you are timid because of this?"

Lu Yuchen sneered: "Ding Shichang, the one who achieves great things is so timid, do you think you are worthy of great things?"

Ding Shichang lowered his head and said, "What His Highness taught you is that the officials are as cowardly as a mouse..."

But he clearly knew that there was a trap ahead, so why would he choose to jump into it foolishly?
That's not boldness, that's courting death.

Brave but not resourceful, he is regarded as a reckless man, and as the vice president of the Academy of Arts, he is naturally more comprehensive in thinking.

Over the years, he has gotten used to it.

After all, in the officialdom, how many things can't be controlled?

"I don't need to pursue this matter, but Zhou Zexun entered Yuntian Academy this time, and he is the first double-academic student in the academy for a long time. He is a rare talent. If he can be used by us, then we It’s easier to do it if you want to do it.”

Ding Shichang nodded quickly when he heard the words: "Your Highness said..."

But before he could finish his words of agreement, Lu Yuchen spoke again.

"But if he is determined to help Lu Ming and Jiang Chujiu, then he will be a big threat to us."

Hearing this, Ding Shichang's echoing words stopped short, and his movements were unavoidably a little stiff.

But soon he realized it: "Your Highness taught me the lesson, I understand."

"As long as you know."

Lu Yuchen looked back indifferently.

Ding Shichang is still useful to him, if it weren't for that, Lu Yuchen wouldn't have come here specially to tell him so much.

Lu Yuchen stood up and straightened the wrinkles on his clothes: "You should pay more attention to this matter. It would be best if you can keep it, if you can't keep it..."

Although Lu Yuchen didn't say the rest, Ding Shichang understood what he meant.

So, he replied: "Yes, rest assured, Your Highness, I understand."

Lu Yuchen left, and Ding Shichang sat on the teacher's chair and let out a long sigh of relief.

How could he not understand what Lu Yuchen meant?
Now anyone with a discerning eye can see that Zhou Zexun is more inclined to Jiang Chujiu and Lu Ming.

To be precise, he should be more inclined towards Jiang Chujiu.

But Zhou Zexun is indeed a rare talent, it would be a pity if he were to be destroyed like this.

Although Ding Shichang could not bear it, he had no other choice.

All he can do now is to obey Lu Yuchen's words.

Otherwise, once the matter is revealed, Lu Yuchen will not survive, and he will also die!
……

After returning to the palace for lunch, Lu Ming asked Jiang Chujiu to go back to rest for a while, saying that she woke up too early in the morning.

To be honest, it wasn't too early for Jiang Chujiu to wake up, even after her injuries had fully healed, Lu Ming looked at her like a child.

I always feel that she is thirsty, hungry, or sleepy all day long, and she is protected very well, and I can't find anything wrong with it.

Back in the side hall, I saw that little girl Mengtang sitting beside the table in a rage.

Jiang Chujiu was a little puzzled for a while.

Didn't Mengtang go to find Jiang Huainian in the morning?
How could you be so angry?
Jiang Chujiu felt that with Jiang Huainian's temperament of pampering Mengtang so much, he shouldn't make her angry, right?

So, Jiang Chujiu walked over and sat beside Mengtang.

"What's the matter, little girl? Why do you feel so unhappy?"

Seeing Jiang Chujiu, Mengtang's small mouth instantly pricked up, and he looked aggrieved.

"My lord, me, Xiaonian..."

Jiang Chujiu saw that she couldn't explain clearly when she was in a hurry, so she quickly said, "Okay, okay, don't worry, talk slowly, did my elder brother bully you?"

Mengtang quickly shook her head: "No, it's just that I just went to find Xiaonian. It was nothing to worry about, but then Xiaonian received a letter from my family, which said that the family found a suitable marriage for Xiaonian, and asked Xiaonian When do you go back in the new year, you must meet the young lady of that family as soon as possible."

"what?"

Jiang Chujiu frowned as she listened.

Is this an arranged marriage?
"Then what did my elder brother say?" Jiang Chujiu asked.

Mengtang shook her head: "Xiao Nian didn't know about it either, she only found out after reading the letter."

Jiang Chujiu frowned slightly: "I'll go ask him."

"grown ups!"

Mengtang quickly grabbed Jiang Chujiu's wrist, looked at her with pleading eyes, and kept shaking her head.

"Don't go, my lord."

Mengtang has always been gentle and lovely in front of Jiang Chujiu, this is the first time she has seen Mengtang like this.

For a while, the mood was extremely complicated.

"Little girl, do you have any concerns?"

Mengtang bit her lower lip tightly and clasped her hands tightly.

Jiang Chujiu could tell that Mengtang was hiding something in her heart.

But she didn't want to force Mengtang to speak out.

"It's okay little girl, if you don't want to say anything, I just don't ask."

Mengtang shook her head, and replied: "It's not that this servant is unwilling to say it, it's that this servant feels that she is trying to gain ground."

She was just a little court lady, but Jiang Huainian was no longer the servant of the clothes bureau.

He is the only son of the martial arts leader.

The son of the leader of the martial arts, how could she, a little court lady, be able to climb up?
I'm afraid that in the end, only the name of a housekeeper will be left.

Ke Mengtang is not willing to do this.

She has seen the ending of those liaison girls.

I really don't want to think about those anymore.

Jiang Chujiu hugged Mengtang, felt her slightly trembling body, and patted her gently to comfort her.

"You're not Gao Pan." Jiang Chujiu's loud voice rang in Mengtang's ear: "Silly girl, you have to trust my brother, if you don't trust him, then what's the point of him persevering What's the point?"

Mengtang paused, turned her head to look at Jiang Chujiu, but only saw her fair neck and soft jaw.

"Don't think about it yourself. I'll ask him what he means first. Don't think about things so badly, okay?"

Jiang Chujiu withdrew a little and looked at Mengtang.

Mengtang nodded obediently, Jiang Chujiu looked even more distressed.

After soothing Mengtang, Jiang Chujiu left the side hall and went to find Jiang Huainian.

When Jiang Chujiu came, Jiang Huainian was sitting on the steps outside the palace in a daze, dragging his chin with one hand, and staring at somewhere in the distance.

So much so that when Jiang Chujiu came to him, Jiang Huainian didn't notice it.

Jiang Chujiu sighed slightly in her heart, but she still walked over, patted Jiang Huainian on the shoulder, and sat down on the steps beside him.

"Brother, what are you thinking?"
