Therefore, at this time, the most appropriate choice is to remain unchanged in the face of ever-changing circumstances.

Mei Changsu said, "You were originally a very important part of my plan, but I was worried about ruining your breakthrough, so I had someone replace Baili Qi from Beiyan with a fake one and attend Nihuang's son-in-law selection meeting."

Zhou Chen was shocked. Fortunately, he appeared late. If Mei Changsu’s original idea had really happened, wouldn’t he have met Mu Nihuang?

Fortunately, fortunately.

"So what do I need to do next?"

"Not for now, but I have an appointment with Jingrui and Yujin tomorrow to go to Yingfeng Tower to watch the fun. Will you come with us?"

"Go to Yingfeng Tower to compete in the Son-in-law Selection Conference?"

When Zhou Chen heard this, he immediately shook his head and said, "Forget it, I won't go."

"Hey, haven't you been fond of lively things in recent years? Now that there is such a lively event, you don't want to go. Is there a problem?" Mei Changsu looked surprised.

Zhou Chen cursed in his heart, being too smart is not a good thing.

"Nothing, I'm just a little tired from traveling all this time, so I want to have a good rest."

"I'm just going to watch the fun, not to do anything else. It just so happens that you go there tomorrow, and you can help me check out the people participating in the competition. Although I sent Baili Qi, his strength is also qualified to compete for the bottom of the Langya Master List, but I'm still a little worried that some unexpected people will appear in the middle. If you follow me, I can make preparations in advance if I find anyone."

Mei Changsu is extremely intelligent, but he also knows that he cannot predict everything in the world. He is mostly just hiding in the dark, making plans unintentionally.

But sometimes man proposes, God disposes. Who knows if there will be any accidents? What if there is some hidden master who also wants to win the championship, that will affect his plan.

He asked Zhou Chen to go over just for safety. With Zhou Chen's current strength that allows him to compete for the best in the world, even if an accident occurs, it can be discovered early and the problem can be solved quickly.

Zhou Chen said: "I think your plan is so dense, there will definitely be no accidents."

Mei Changsu became more suspicious: "You are very abnormal. Why don't you want to go to Yingfeng Tower?"

"No, forget it. I can't even take a break. I'll go with you tomorrow, but what identity should I go with? Gongzi Yu, or Rakshasa?"

Zhou Chen did not refuse again. With Mei Changsu's intelligence, if he continued to refuse, he would definitely guess something.

In fact, he had thought about confessing to Mei Changsu, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say them. The main reason was that this matter was very embarrassing and Mei Changsu was not in good health. He was afraid that it would make Mei Changsu feel uncomfortable and affect his mood and body.

"Young Master Yu's identity will make subsequent plans more convenient, so it's better for Luosha to hide behind the scenes." Mei Changsu said.

"Okay, let's do as you say. Sit down and I'll take your pulse to see how you are doing."

Zhou Chen sat down and asked Mei Changsu to sit next to him.

Mei Changsu sat down and said, "I am in good health. Lin Chen had already seen me before I came to Jinling and brought me some medicine. Doctor Yan has also sneaked into Jinling City with Li Gang and others. After I leave Ningguo Marquis Mansion, they will come to take care of me."

Zhou Chen ignored him, grabbed his wrist and started taking his pulse.

Chapter 824 Princess Pingyang, Zhou Chen vs Meng Zhi

After a while, Zhou Chen let go of his hand, and Mei Changsu said with a smile: "Yeah, my physical condition is pretty good, right?"

"Not bad at all, you're worse than when I left. I can tell at a glance that you didn't listen to me and take good care of yourself. How dare you still smile?"

Zhou Chen cursed back without any hesitation. Mei Changsu just laughed dryly and didn't dare to refute at all.

Zhou Chen is different from others. He will not indulge him. If he refutes, Zhou Chen will really suppress him and will not give in to him at all. He cannot resist even if he wants to.

Mei Changsu didn't dare to speak, but Fei Liu puffed up his lips and said angrily: "You are not allowed to bully Brother Su."

Zhou Chen turned his head and looked at Fei Liu: "Then I bully you?"

Fei Liu was immediately startled and quickly hid behind Mei Changsu, looking at Zhou Chen with a nervous and vigilant expression.

Mei Changsu looked helpless: "Okay, stop teasing Fei Liu."

Then he said to Fei Liu: "Fei Liu, don't mess with him, you can't beat him."

Zhou Chen rolled his eyes: "It makes me sound like a bad person who only bullies children."

"I have made a breakthrough now, and my inner strength has become stronger, as if it has evolved. This should be good for your body. Fei Liu, go watch outside and don't let anyone get close. I will help your brother Su sort out his body."

"Oh."

Fei Liu agreed very readily this time. As long as it was good for Mei Changsu, he was willing to listen to Zhou Chen.

Half an hour later, Zhou Chen finished his practice, and Mei Changsu's face was filled with relaxation and comfort.

"Your inner strength is indeed somewhat different from before, but it feels like it's even more powerful."

Zhou Chen said: "Yes, that's why I have to be more careful, otherwise the internal energy will run wild in your body and your body won't be able to handle it."

He sighed in his heart, Mei Changsu was different from him after all, he had innate skills given by the system, so he was able to reach his current level even after being poisoned by fire and cold.

But Mei Changsu did not have this skill. After detoxification, his physical fitness became worse and worse. Even with his internal energy and medication for treatment and maintenance, he still could not solve the fundamental problem. His body was still slowly becoming weaker, and this was no longer something that could be stopped by human power.

What's even more uncomfortable is that Mei Changsu is still constantly consuming his energy, so even if he takes care of himself, the effect is very poor.

Current medical skills cannot save Mei Changsu. Modern technology may have a chance, but unfortunately, there are no future instruments and medicines now.

Mei Changsu was very clear about his situation and smiled: "I feel very comfortable now. With so many of you thinking of me and helping me, I will definitely live a few more years. When the time comes, I will take Fei Liu with me and travel around the world with you."

Zhou Chen didn't want the atmosphere to become depressing, so he smiled and said, "Then I have to find a way to get someone to build a carriage that's not too bumpy."

"Okay, then use all your wonderful ideas."

After imagining about the beautiful future for a while, Mei Changsu couldn't help but smile. His biggest wish now was to overturn the Chi Yan case. As long as he could achieve this goal, he could put down all his burdens and live a relaxed life.

After chatting for a while, Mei Changsu asked, "Are you going to stay here tonight?"

Zhou Chen looked disgusted and said, "Three grown men living together, you can stand it, but I can't. I'll leave soon."

"Then let's go to Miaoyinfang. That's our contact point in Jinling. I think Gong Yu must miss you very much."

"Gong Yu."

Zhou Chen had a complicated look on his face as he recalled the days when he lived in the same courtyard with Gong Yu in Jiangzuo League, as well as the Mid-Autumn Festival of that year. For a moment, he really missed this woman who treated him wholeheartedly.

"Okay, then I'll go to Miaoyinfang later, and I'll find a way to get to Yingfeng Tower tomorrow."

After discussing with Mei Changsu, Zhou Chen put on the Rakshasa mask and left the Ningguo Marquis Mansion alone, without anyone noticing.

He did not try to find out what the Ningguo Marquis Mansion was thinking, but instead followed the Ningguo Marquis Mansion and headed in another direction. That direction was not the way to Miaoyinfang.

About a quarter of an hour later, Zhou Chen arrived near a dilapidated house. He jumped lightly and flew into the house. After a few ups and downs, he arrived at a withered peach tree in one of the courtyards.

This peach tree is over ten meters tall, which is very impressive for a peach tree. Normal peach trees can hardly grow this tall.

Zhou Chen stood on the trunk of the peach tree. Because of the darkness, he would hardly be discovered by anyone. Not almost, but hardly at all, because there was no one here.

Gently stroking the trunk of the peach tree, a trace of nostalgia appeared on his face. In his memory, he often played under this peach tree when he was a child. At that time, there was a heroic man and a gentle woman accompanying him.

Standing on the tree, Zhou Chen looked out at the entire house. Everywhere was in ruins. Even the huge peach tree was no longer as magnificent as it once was.

It is truly a miracle that this peach tree has survived to this day.

"Soon, soon, I will make this place prosperous again."

He himself didn't have much desire for power, but for the sake of this mansion, he had to restore it to its former glory, no, to make it even more powerful...

After staying on the peach tree for a long time, Zhou Chen regained his composure and quietly left the house. When he finally passed the main gate, he looked at the plaque that had disappeared, and his expression became grim again.

"Humph."

With a cold snort, he quickly left the place. After a while, he stopped at a mansion again, then floated into the mansion and came to the wall of a courtyard as if he was familiar with the place.

It was already midnight, but the lights in the courtyard were still on, and even the bedroom windows were not closed.

Zhou Chen's night vision was very good. Through the light and the window, he saw two figures in the house. He didn't dare to get too close and just watched quietly.

Inside the house, the lights were dim. A woman without makeup, wearing brocade clothes and no headwear, was carefully arranging her clothes and placing them on the bed one by one.

The woman's face did not look old, but she had white hair on her temples. When she was sorting her clothes, she looked very serious and careful, with a smile on her face.

"I personally sewed this for Xiaochen when he was nine years old. At that time, he complained about the color, but he was still very happy to wear it during the Chinese New Year."

"And this one, when he was nine years old, he saw Lin's Xiaoshu wearing new clothes, and came back and pestered me to make him new clothes, but I was not feeling well at the time, so in the end it was you, Jinyu, who stayed up for several nights to make it for him. When the child saw it, he was so happy."

"Jinyu, the clothes you make are still the best looking. They fit well and look good. Your craftsmanship is much better than mine."

There was a person standing next to the woman, and she was talking to her. The other person was also a woman, who looked a few years older than her. At this moment, she was looking at the woman with a distressed look on her face.

"Princess, don't think about those unhappy things. If Xiaochen knew about your behavior, he would definitely be very sad."

The woman was Princess Pingyang. Decades ago, she was also a stunningly beautiful princess of the royal family, admired by many people. But after the Chiyan case, she returned to the Princess' Mansion, and except for being occasionally summoned to the palace by the Empress Dowager to pay her respects, she had never left the Mansion again.

The standing woman is Princess Pingyang's personal nanny, who is a few years older than Princess Pingyang. She has been serving Princess Pingyang since she was a child for more than 40 years, and the two have a very deep relationship.

Later, Princess Pingyang married Wucheng Hou Zhou Kuang. She was also granted the privilege of marrying a general under Zhou Kuang's command. However, her husband died on the battlefield when he followed Zhou Kuang to fight, and her only son also died in infancy.

She was not only Princess Pingyang's personal maid, but also Zhou Chen's wet nurse when he was a child. Her son was born at about the same time as Zhou Chen. At that time, Princess Pingyang did not have enough milk, but she had enough milk, so she took the initiative to feed Zhou Chen. Therefore, she watched Zhou Chen grow up.

Especially after her own son died, she had no relatives left, so she returned to serve Princess Pingyang, so Zhou Chen was no different from her own child to her.

When Zhou Chen got into trouble with the Red Flame Army, Princess Pingyang suffered a great shock, and it was she who protected Princess Pingyang and helped her get through it.

So although she was just a nanny, in fact, she and Princess Pingyang were more like sisters.

Princess Pingyang said quietly, "Xiaochen, my child, sometimes I really want to just follow him and then I can see him again."

Nanny Jin Yu quickly advised: "Princess, please don't think like that. There is hope only when people are alive. Didn't you also advise me the same thing when my child died?"

"But what hope do I have now? If I hadn't missed leaving my grandma, I would have just left."

Princess Pingyang was in a bad mood. She was not implicated in the Chiyan case because her grandmother was the current Empress Dowager and her father was the Empress Dowager's other son.

Thanks to the Empress Dowager's plea, she was able to save her life. Otherwise, she would probably have died.

Jin Yu was also sad and said: "If I had known that this would be the result, I shouldn't have let Xiaochen go to the Red Flame Army, then I wouldn't have been implicated."

Princess Pingyang shook her head and sighed, "What's the point of saying this now? The Lin family, Prince Qi, Sister Jinyang, Sister Leyao, how could they possibly rebel?"

Nanny Jinyu was shocked. Although she knew that there was no way anyone in the mansion could have ears, she still cautiously dissuaded him, "Princess, you can't say that."

Princess Pingyang also understood that there were some things that could not be said, so she kept silent and stroked the clothes in her hands again.

"Jinyu, tell me, if Xiaochen were still alive, would his child be able to wear these two clothes?"

Nanny Jinyu said, "If Xiaochen's child were still here, you would never let him wear old clothes. You would definitely make several new clothes for him every year."

Princess Pingyang seemed to have seen that scene, and she smiled softly and said, "Yes, Jinyu, you will work with me when the time comes. We will make a few more."

"The princess is right."

Zhou Chen stood on the wall and watched silently for a long time. He recognized the two people inside.

His current mother, Princess Xiao Zhihan of Pingyang, Daliang, and his wet nurse Jin Yu.

Without any thought of recognizing each other, he took one last deep look at her and suddenly turned and left.

As if she had sensed something, Princess Pingyang looked out the window in confusion.

Jin Yu reacted at this time: "I forgot to close the window. Princess, I think you are cold. I will close it now."

Princess Pingyang stopped her and said softly, "Close it when you go to bed. The window is open, and if Xiaochen comes back, he will be able to see me."

Jin Yu sighed slightly, not knowing how to persuade him.

…………

With a heavy heart, Zhou Chen moved quickly on the roof. This time his destination was Miaoyinfang.

Before returning to Jinling City, he could have stopped thinking about these things, but after returning to Jinling City, he knew that everything had to come to an end.

From his past memories, he knew how much the mother in this world loved him. It was because of this love that he felt pressured. He came to this world as Zhou Chen, so he had to inherit everything.

Because he had a lot of things to think about, he was inevitably a little distracted. Until he flew over the roof of a mansion, suddenly a loud shout came from below.

"who?"

Then he saw a figure rushing onto the roof and attacking him at an extremely fast speed.

Zhou Chen came to his senses instantly, his expression unchanged beneath the mask, he turned around calmly and slapped his palms, and the two palms collided.

"boom!"

A powerful force burst out from the palms of both men, and their bodies shook slightly at the same time and they quickly separated.

Zhou Chen looked at the person who slapped him in surprise. Although he did not use his full strength in this palm strike, the other party was able to catch it with ease, which was definitely not ordinary.

Because he was very close, he could see the other person's face clearly and then recognized who he was.
