Chapter 59 The Sisters Fight Each Other (2)
"Why are you so incompetent? You didn't even blink your eyes when you killed people in Tianxiang Pavilion. I've never seen someone as cruel as you." Shen Cui shouted, "I still have nightmares thinking about it now."

"So I shouldn't have knocked them out at the time, and let you and I experience what happened to Wang Yueniang, right? Maybe now we can join hands in the palace to serve the old emperor." Ji Cheng sarcastically said, she felt that Shen Cui was so unreasonable that the bodhisattva couldn't help but lose his temper.

"You..." Shen Cui was so angry that Ji Cheng jumped, pushed the bowl away and said, "Don't eat." Then he got up and walked out.

Although Ji Lan was not happy that Ji Cheng spoke to Shen Cui like this, she also knew that Shen Cui's words just now were exaggerated: "She is your sister, even if you say something wrong, you should give way."

"If Ah Cui wasn't my younger sister, I wouldn't say anything about her." Ji Cheng lowered his eyes slightly.

This is the truth, if Ji Cheng hadn't been for Shen Cui's good, following her words and praising her ignorantly, she would suffer in the future, but even so, Shen Cui might have to suffer a little in the future to learn how to be a human being.

"Have you had breakfast yet?" Ji Lan asked Ji Cheng.

Ji Cheng had used it before, but after hearing what Ji Lan said, she knew that she had something to talk to him, so she shook her head, and Linglong cleverly arranged the bowls and chopsticks for Ji Cheng, and served a bowl of porridge with red dates and barley.

Ji Lan waved her hand and told the people who were waiting on the side to back out. She scooped a spoonful of porridge and put it to her mouth and blew it slowly, but she didn't eat it. She waited until the score was enough before she said: "Ah Cheng , are you planning to fight my shop to the end?"

Ji Cheng smiled, and she and Ji Lan were basically talking with each other, and now it won't do any good to stop, but offended Ji Lan for nothing.

"How come? They are all in business. The monthly profit of those big shopkeepers is not good, and it is not easy to explain to Daddy. They have no intention of competing with Auntie's shop." Ji Cheng also imitated Ji Lan. The appearance is blowing porridge.

Ji Lan frowned, and put the bowl in her hand heavily: "Then I can only let your father take you back."

Ji Cheng raised his eyes and said, "Don't bother, I'll just move to Lanhua Lane. Anyway, my sister-in-law is going to come to the capital to accompany my elder brother, so I happen to be with her."

Ji Lan sneered and said, "Oh, then your plan to go to the capital will come to nothing?"

"Even if I don't move away, wouldn't my plans come to naught? I was almost sold by my aunt. I didn't tell my dad because I was afraid of hurting his heart. I didn't tell the old lady either. After all, my aunt helped Ah Cheng, I have always respected my aunt in my heart, but I can't let my aunt arrange without limit, it is a lifetime thing after all."

"Are you threatening me?" Ji Lan's eyes nearly popped out.

"Don't dare. You are my aunt. We are tied relatives at any time. We can't let other people see the joke. My aunt has no face, and others will feel ashamed when they think that I am your niece." What Ji Cheng said was the truth.

Ji Lan's face was so dark that it couldn't be darker, and she knew that Ji Cheng was mocking herself: "Your father really raised a good daughter with a sharp tongue."

Ji Cheng put down the spoon, his shoulders slumped, and he looked at Ji Lan and said, "Auntie, you and I are both from the Ji family, and we both know that people like us won't tear ourselves apart unless we have to. Only kindness can make money. I'm not forced to. I will never make such a bad move and make my aunt hate me. But I don't understand why my aunt must send me to the palace? I came to the capital to help my father, my elder brother, and my mother. The Ji family is also helping me to live a better life. But although the harem looks prosperous, it is not suitable for me."

After all, Ji Cheng is young, has too many expectations for life, and is still looking forward to a happy life in the future, so of course he refuses to enter the harem, even if the emperor is as handsome and young as Shen Che, he will never be in her consideration.

"So if I enter the palace, either I will die, or the people who sent me in will be killed together." Ji Cheng looked into Ji Lan's eyes and said.

Ji Lan originally wanted to say that you are so young now, and you know what it means to die, but when the time comes, you may not be willing to die, but when she looked into Ji Cheng's eyes, she felt that she was serious.

In fact, after being cheated last time, Ji Lan has more or less given up on sending Ji Cheng to the palace.

"I don't have that kind of plan anymore. Since you are so determined, why didn't you say these things to me before, and insisted on threatening me with dirty means?" Ji Lan said.

"I talked to my aunt, but you couldn't listen to me, so I had no choice but to do something wrong. Auntie treated Ah Cheng kindly, and Ah Cheng always remembered." Ji Cheng said.

Ji Cheng has repeatedly emphasized that he is not an ungrateful person, just to let Ji Lan understand that she does not want to fight against her sincerity.

"Since you remember my kindness, give me back what you took from the shop." Ji Lan said.

"Of course the shop will be returned to my aunt, but it depends on my aunt's sincerity." Ji Cheng did not avoid Ji Lan's fierce eyes at all.

Ji Lan sneered several times: "Are you not afraid that I will tell your father?"

"My dad won't care about it." Ji Cheng replied.

Ji Qing really didn't care about it, Ji Lan wrote several letters to Ji Qing, Ji Qing only had one sentence, he couldn't help himself, everything was under Ji Cheng's command.

Ji Lan said with a cold face: "Now it's not a question of whether I can help you or not. The people we have to deal with together are the Wang family and Wang Yueniang. Do you think that Wang Yueniang will just let it go after suffering such a big loss? The reason why she is willing Committing yourself to the emperor, you must want to take revenge on us. You should first think about how to deal with her revenge."

Ji Cheng picked up the spoon again and scooped up a spoonful of porridge to drink. The heat and cold were just right, making one's spleen and stomach very comfortable. "The person Wang Yueniang had to deal with at the beginning was A Cui. After all, it was A Cui who stole her limelight by performing in the middle altar. I was just punished because I helped A Cui. After all, in the eyes of the Wang family, the Ji family has nothing to do with it. It's just insignificant. Later, when something happened to Wang Yueniang, she knew it was the Shen family's fault, and it was the entire Shen family that was going to face her revenge, and I was just an insignificant pawn."

Ji Cheng saw the situation clearly, Ji Lan wanted to use this incident to scare her, but made a wrong calculation.

It was only now that Ji Lan was willing to fully admit that she had always underestimated Ji Cheng.

"Yes, it is the Shen family that she wants to take revenge on, our third wife. If the Shen family is overthrown, how can there be any eggs under the overturned nest? The reason why I wanted you to enter the palace was for your third uncle. As long as your third uncle Even Wang Yueniang has to rely on him from being an official to cabinet minister." Ji Lan changed her strategy and said in a persuasive way, "The last time the minister of the Ministry of War was vacant, I just didn't have money, so your uncle was not promoted."

All in all, it's still money, Ji Cheng thought that she had done a good job in this move, and finally had a bargaining chip in her hand to negotiate with Ji Lan.

"Although I am an outsider, I also know that if uncle wants to go further, it may be more difficult than reaching the sky." Ji Cheng said.

Ji Lan stared at Ji Cheng: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"Whether I am talking nonsense, my aunt knows in her heart. Although the emperor is sick, his brain is not sick. He has been in power for so many years, and he has already mastered the emperor's power. power within."

"What do you know? It depends on man's effort." Ji Lan said.

Ji Cheng said: "I don't think so. If my uncle wants to stand out, unless my uncle gives up his military power and returns to Beijing. But the Western Regions have been eyeing them all these years, and it's all thanks to my uncle's reputation that they don't dare to act rashly. Daqin has no uncle to guard the border, and there is a border The common people of the Li people will not live in peace, so the court will not touch him."

Ji Lan remained silent, she also admitted that Ji Cheng was telling the truth, but she never thought that a little girl like her would have such insight.

Ji Cheng sighed softly: "Since uncle's position cannot be moved, no matter how much money my uncle and aunt send, it will be useless, but my cousin has a bright future."

Ji Cheng's words immediately scratched Ji Lan's itch, and she signaled Ji Cheng to continue talking with her eyes, but her face showed an expression of whether you like to talk or not.

"Uncle is getting old, and there will be a day when he retires. At that time, the Shen family will have to rely on his cousin to support him. Cousin is a good student. If he is in high school next year, he will be the same as Cousin Yu." If Cousin Jing’s future looks brighter, I think the ancestors will definitely support Cousin Jing. After all, in the second and third rooms, the old lady supports the second room at the expense of the third room. The backs of her hands are all flesh, and they are all her own sons, so she must be indebted to her uncle in her heart."

Ji Cheng was right, if the old lady didn't feel that she owed Shen Ying, how could Ji Lan marry in, but she wanted Shen Ying to be unhappy in her official career, so she had to marry someone she liked to make up for it.

"There is a debt in my heart, if my cousin is more upright, the old lady will naturally favor my cousin. At that time, my aunt can relieve all her anger." Ji Cheng said.

Ji Cheng's words really touched Ji Lan's heart. Before, she was all for Shen Ying, thinking that if Shen Ying went up, Shen Jing would naturally be able to go up, but now that Ji Cheng said this, she suddenly realized, she Indeed, more attention should be put on Shen Jing.

Ji Lan fell into silence, began to think about Shen Jing's affairs, and worried about Wang Yueniang's stumbling in the palace, so she waved Ji Cheng away.

After Ji Cheng and the others went to the school, Ji Lan went to the old lady's room to inquire about news, mainly about Wang Yueniang.

"I asked Archer to inquire about this matter. He has many friends and is well-informed." The old lady said.

Ji Lan thought to herself, isn't it true that Shen Che has the most crooked friends, but unfortunately each one is more useless than the other, she wonders if the old lady is old and incompetent, why is she relying on that prodigal son Shen Che for everything?
"Alright, Ah Jing also has some acquaintances in Dongshan Academy, and he may have some contacts to inquire about. I'll ask him to ask quietly." Ji Lan said.

The old lady said "hmm".

As for Shen Che, whom the old lady placed high hopes on, he was seeing Rui Yu off at the pier.

Probably because there was no hope with Shen Che, and she was very tired of the life in Jiangnan Tower.Rui Yu knew that what Shen Che said was right, even if the other party was him, maybe five or ten years would be fine, but after ten years she might not not regret it, regretting getting old and fading, the old love is gone, and she herself lost The goal of life is obscured by everyone.

After Rui Yu left, the first destination she chose was Jiangnan. Shen Che went to the pier to see her off on the boat. Rui Yu traveled lightly and only brought a maid to serve her. Just like Fang Xuan back then, she went there in pursuit of her dream. Yes, not for enjoyment.

Rui Yu waved to Shen Che from the bow of the boat, thinking that she was about to leave the capital where she had lived for more than [-] years, the reluctance in her heart was naturally inexplicable, while the man on the bank whose robe was flapping by the river wind People are also hard for her to let go of.

Rui Yu was really not reconciled, she ran off the boat and rushed to Shen Che like the wind: "Can you kiss me?" Rui Yu, who was so disgusted by him that he had never even kissed, really hated her so much.

Shen Che spread his hands, and Rui Yu plunged into his arms, feeling his kiss lightly on her forehead, like an elder brother pampering his younger sister.

Rui Yu laughed loudly, the flowers were messy, and she said with tears: "I don't know which Bodhisattva will accept you, a bad person who only hurts people's hearts, on behalf of Tian Xingdao in the future."

After Rui Yu turned and left, Chu De whispered in Shen Che's ear: "How can it be a Bodhisattva? It must be a monster who came to accept you as a Buddha. You are so thorough in sex, you should abstain from alcohol and meat tomorrow." , you can go to the Bodhi tree to achieve enlightenment.”

Shen Che glanced at Chu De: "What are you so angry about?"

"It's hard for me to listen to Miss Rui Yu's songs for a few days after being in your favor, but now it's great, I've been mad at you again."

"You also said that you are in my favor." Shen Che said coldly to Chu De.What right do the well-wishers have to complain?

After hearing this, Chu De was even more dissatisfied: "I said that each of these girls has a problem with their brains. It's obvious that you are the one who starts to mess up and ends up abandoning them. They are still infatuated with you and have no regrets. They are willing to be responsible, willing to be responsible, and able Why don't they look down on the responsible man?"

"They're not blind." Shen Che showed no sympathy for Chu De, "What's going on in the palace these few days?"

"Nothing happened. Wang Yueniang hasn't gained a firm foothold yet. She will definitely be a person with her tail between her legs for a while. Don't worry about it for now," Chu De said.

"I'm not worried. Wang Yueniang hated Dafang to death. People are always more likely to hate people around her than outsiders. She and Concubine Wang Shu will meet sooner or later. Watch carefully and help Concubine Wang Shu if necessary, Wang Yueniang This malignant tumor, after the emperor gets tired of playing with it, pull it out as soon as you can."

"Tsk tsk tsk, you are really cold-blooded. It's a shame that the little girl is so infatuated with you. Look at how you treat her?" Chu De shook his head.

"If you feel sorry for her, go ahead." Shen Che said.

One word from Shen Che silenced Chu De.

Chu De waved his hand and said: "Forget it, she is now a concubine. You know that the one in my family is weak and hasn't conceived for several years. My mother and concubine were in a hurry and urged me to adopt a decent girl. That cousin of yours..."

Shen Che turned around and walked back, while walking, he said: "My cousin is not a concubine."

"Hey, I haven't said which one yet." Chu De chased after Shen Che.

"None." Shen Che replied to Chu De without turning his head.

Chu De scolded: "Your family is even a dog that is more noble than others, right?"

Shen Che had already gotten into the carriage at this moment, and he didn't know if he heard it or not. Chu De scolded again: "A big man, he rides in a carriage every time he goes out. Are you embarrassed? Can you ride a horse? What kind of woman are you pretending to be?!"

Chu De cursed and got on the horse brought to him by his entourage, and just turned over and sat still, when something hit him in the chest. If he wasn't fat enough and the chassis was stable enough, he might have to fall off the horse immediately .

"Second Shen!" Chu De's screams could be heard across the river.

Two long followers hurried forward to support Chu De, one supported his leg and the other held his buttocks, making him sit still again.

Chu De furiously kicked away the long follower who was holding his leg: "What are you looking at, quickly pick up that ball of paper for Grandpa."

The murder weapon for beating people could not be crushed to vent his anger, and he had to put it away carefully, and then opened it when he was in a safe place. Chu De felt that there was no one more useless than himself in this world. Why was he so naive back then? Was kindness coaxed into his boat by Shen Che?
