The reborn sycophant

Chapter 18 The Emperor's Heart

The night wind was still outside the window, and the lights in the house were flickering. The slender figure reflected on the wall remained motionless for a while, like a palm standing silently outside the window.

Things are... a little tricky.

Closed her eyes slightly, Chu Yan half-squatted in front of Zhao Ji, thinking about things with some embarrassment, the light fell on her plain face, swept over her drooping eyelashes, and cast a little silhouette under her eyes.

Quiet and cold, dark light floated on her body, and she was hesitating whether to teach Zhao Ji what she should teach.There are some things that she doesn't care about if she doesn't say them, but after she speaks out, she's beyond the duty of a maid... It's nothing.But she was worried that these words would be heard by the ears in the dark and reach Concubine Wan Gui's ears, then she would be forced to come into this empress' sight.

If the words about slaves tonight can be interpreted as the kindness of a girl, then what she will teach Zhao Ji next should never come from a girl of twelve or thirteen years old.

At this time, Wei Chuyan didn't know that she had already entered Concubine Wan Gui's sight, but the Concubine admired her vigilance and sternness that day, but she didn't know that what Master Wei is best at is not these things, but things that require brains .

"Wei Chuyan, why don't you speak?"

Impatient, Zhao Ji asked again, she stared at Wei Chuyan, thinking that Wei Chuyan was someone who could understand her, but Wei Chuyan refused to go along with her, which made her feel at a loss again.

"Master, can you get closer?"

"what?"

"I said...that's all, it's the same when I come over."

In the hesitant female voice, Wei Chuyan leaned forward, almost in front of Zhao Ji, and after a while, he touched the tip of Zhao Ji's nose.A servant girl who was originally standing by was shocked when she saw this, and hurried over to hold the first banquet.

"Presumptuous! You are disrespectful."

Zhao Ji was indeed not used to being so close to people, but she really wanted to know Wei Chuyan's thoughts, so she waved her hand to screen off the maids and asked them to wait outside.

This is what the first banquet was waiting for.

She just didn't expect that Zhao Ji would let people withdraw directly. That's fine, but she doesn't need to be so close to Zhao Ji. If she gets too close, she can smell the peach blossom fragrance on Zhao Ji's body. This fragrance always makes her feel sad.

What's more, maybe it's because this world has not been differentiated. After hearing Zhao Ji's pheromone for a long time, she always feels dizzy. It's about ordinary people smelling the pheromone of Qianyang Lord or Kunyin Lord. , is it like this?

As soon as the servant girl withdrew, Wei Chuyan also stepped back a little, keeping a proper distance.

"Master, do you know why a country needs laws?"

"Of course I know, the law is for the people."

"Then the master should also know that in the law, there is the death penalty."

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Ji looked at her sensitively, his eyes suddenly became sharp, like a little beast whose tail was caught.

"For some people who have committed serious mistakes, the first banquet believes that death is the right sentence. Just like a person who killed someone or committed other heinous crimes, then the master has to die because he can't bear to see him. Die and spare his life?"

Zhao Ji's eyes looked fierce, but of course they wouldn't scare Wei Chuyan. She looked at Zhao Ji calmly, with wisdom that had been honed over time in her eyes. Looking at her, Zhao Ji felt that Wei Chuyan was a little different from before. same.

It seemed that Meiyu finally took off the layer of stone coat on the skin, and began to reveal a bright brilliance.

"This... is impossible."

"Then the master will understand why the first banquet was silent just now. Because what the master said, it is not feasible to prevent them from beating and killing the slaves. The common people will be punished if they make mistakes, and the prince will not escape punishment if he makes mistakes. Is it true that slaves But can it be avoided? The master's original intention is good, but the first banquet also told the master that people will not kill slaves at will. If a slave is really at the point where he will be killed, then he probably committed the crime. Big mistake. The master can restrain the people and make them not kill the slaves without reason, but if they are not allowed to have this power, then it is as if the law cannot deter the people, and one day the slaves will not obey the rules."

"This is the first harm."

Zhao Ji's heart was shaken, she didn't think that it was just that they were not allowed to kill people, why did this happen.

"What's the second evil?"

"The second evil...is only aimed at the master."

"For me?"

"That's right. Master and master have different identities, and in the future... will be even more honorable. If you are always so soft-hearted, you will eventually suffer backlash. Master's family is different from ordinary families. Fighting and secret fighting are common things, master will not understand .”

"Wei Chuyan, you are so bold, do you know that with just this sentence, I can put you to death!"

Chu Yan bent his eyes and smiled like a flower blooming: "Master said just a moment ago that he couldn't bear to see people die. Do you think Chu Yan will be frightened by you?"

Zhao Ji was like a paper tiger that had been punctured, he grabbed her hand and bit her in anger.Wei Chuyan was stunned for a moment by the familiar feeling as he bit his small white teeth on Chuyan's tiger's mouth.

At the same time, Zhao Ji was also stunned. She didn't expect that she would be so easily irritated by Wei Chuyan, and she didn't expect that she would actually bite Wei Chuyan.

Tianjia...what is the manners?

Zhao Ji hurriedly shook off Wei Chuyan's hand, his eyes swept left and right, but he refused to look at Wei Chuyan.

"You, you go on."

Withdrawing his hand, the other hand was placed on the tiger's mouth with shallow teeth marks, Wei Chuyan's expression was also a little bit wandering.

"The Tian family is ruthless. The master grew up in the Tian family, and he has seen many things. Your Majesty's son is not prosperous, and there are only a few Qianyang Lords who can ascend the throne. The master always says that he will be king in the future, which shows that the master does not covet That position, but is this something the master can avoid if he doesn't want to? If the master doesn't want to, will the other highnesses think that the master really doesn't want to? Your majesty and the queen have not given birth to Lord Qianyang, and the current crown prince is just the eldest son. Does the master really think that his position is solid?"

The words were too bold, so bold that Zhao Ji temporarily forgot the embarrassment just now, opened his mouth, and stared blankly at Wei Chuyan.

If she just said that Wei Chuyan could be put to death just to scare her, then Wei Chuyan's next words were indeed walking on the tip of a knife.

It is a capital offense to talk about family affairs indiscriminately; she said that the crown prince's status is unstable, which is also a capital offense; she also hinted that she would seize the throne... how many lives are not enough for her to die!

At this time, Zhao Ji discovered that Wei Chuyan was not good at reading, she could see all these things so clearly, the people, the law, the court situation, these things that she had only a half-knowledge came to Wei Chuyan, but she couldn't understand them. Thinking that she could easily argue against the gentleman in the school, Zhao Ji understood that Wei Chuyan might have been hiding his clumsiness all along.

It's just... If you are so clumsy, why did you say these things to her?

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

In the sweet and mild air in late spring, Zhao Ji asked Wei Chuyan coldly.Wei Chuyan looked at her small face, but sighed.

How could she not know, but she just wanted to say.She didn't know how Zhao Ji came to his senses in his previous life, and how he became the king of God, but judging from her future behavior, she might have suffered a lot.

Now that she is back, she has met such a young Zhao Ji again. There are some things that she would rather be done by her, for example, planting an emperor's heart for Zhao Ji.

in a relatively mild manner.

She will not let Zhao Ji deviate from the original track, because the emperor's family is ruthless, if Zhao Ji is not pretending to be Lord Qianyang, that's all. The new emperor will not be too harsh on His Royal Highness who is Lord Kunyin.But for Qian Yangjun...

Yes, because it is the "King of Qianyang", Zhao Ji will be crowned king if someone else becomes the emperor, but no matter who is in the throne, it is imperative to cut the king within 20 years. By then, Zhao Ji How can there be a way out?

Besides... Concubine Wan Gui will let Zhao Ji pretend to be Lord Qianyang. I am afraid that no matter what Zhao Ji thinks, she will be involved in the vortex of fighting for the emperor.

"I know that the master is benevolent, and the master doesn't want to fight for that position, but has the master ever thought about it, if any other highness takes the throne, will they really treat the master well? Master——"

Before the first banquet was finished, Zhao Ji quickly covered her mouth, with tears in his eyes.

"Stop talking about Wei Chuyan."

Zhao Ji's voice trembled a little, she didn't want to hear such words.

"Don't talk about it... What happened today, just pretend it never happened. You only told me about the slave, you know?"

Is it too hasty?Sighing in his heart, Chuyan nodded.
