Empress, don't make trouble, I'm really a gentleman

"Hey, after all, it is the seed of the old master. It behaves exactly the same as the old master. People don't know whether they should be happy or sad."

Elder Zhao hunched over, and used scissors to cut off a strand of light from the oil lamp, causing the sparks to dance, and the shadows on the window to twist and dance.

"Every generation of the Ji family is so amazing. At first, our family thought about it, but in this generation, a fault finally appeared, but we never thought..."

A thin voice sounded from the opposite side.

Sitting opposite Mr. Zhao was an old eunuch wearing a red official uniform with rouge on his face. Looking at his face, this was clearly Wei Gaochen.

Ji Wuchen was still in the palace, but the eunuch sneaked away alone and broke into General Tiance's mansion.

Mr. Zhao smiled lightly, showing no sign of deafness at all.

"What's unexpected about this? I watched the old man grow up, saw him doing things absurdly, saw him not enterprising...seeing everyone laughing at him, I thought he was a waste, but I never thought about it that way .”

Elder Zhao leaned forward, tapped his knuckles on the table, and stared at Wei Gaochen.

"Old Wei, I know, his surname is Ji, so he can't be a waste, no matter...whether he wants to or not."

Wei Gaochen frowned, wanted to say something, but forcibly held back.

Elder Zhao leaned back in his chair.

"Old Wei, we haven't seen each other for a few years. If you want to catch up with me, you probably didn't bring anything with you?"

Wei Gaochen sighed, somewhat helplessly, and took out a pair of small wine bottles from his pocket.

"Royal wine, your favorite drink."

Mr. Zhao laughed until he couldn't see. He took a bottle, unscrewed the stopper lightly, and took a sip.

"Hmm! Not bad! It smells so good!"

……

When the empress carriage returned to the palace, Ji Wuchen had already calmed down.

That cold and emotionless state finally faded away, and now Ji Wuchen has turned back into a gentleman.

Nangong Jing took him to the Hall of Mental Cultivation and sat with him in the Imperial Study Room.

Ji Wuchen knew that the Empress had something to say, so she looked at her quietly.

"General, this time, you are a little impatient."

Nangong Jing carefully chose his words and said euphemistically.

Ji Wuchen shook his head.

"He dared to send someone to assassinate me, and almost killed Fu An, so why didn't I dare to come to the door to make trouble? Could it be that I'm easy to bully?"

Injuring those around him has offended Ji Wuchen Nilin.

On the way to Qing'anhou's mansion, he vaguely guessed that he had entered a certain state again, becoming ruthless... But he didn't try to get rid of that state.

Because, in a normal state, he would never have such a hearty revenge.

Nangong Jing was dumbfounded for a moment.

"Of course I know that the general feels offended, but it's too early to move Nangong Yi."

Ji Wuchen frowned slightly.

The Empress continued: "On the one hand, if you move him, you will definitely be retaliated by the Tianxuan Sect. With the general's current strength...it is easy to hide with an open spear, but hard to defend against an arrow in the dark. On the other hand, Nangong Yi represents the immortals in the capital. Even I am not sure what kind of turmoil it will cause to the Celestial Dynasty if you uproot the power of the affiliated family."

As the lord of a country, whether it was from the perspective of protecting Ji Wuchen or the country, she was unwilling to see Nangong Yi die just like that.

Standing behind the empress, Jing'er nodded her head earnestly, indicating that what Nangong Jing said really made sense.

If Nangong Yi hadn't died, the Tianxuan Sect group would have no reason to take action, but if Nangong Yi had died, things would not have passed so easily.

It is better to bear Nangong Yi's revenge than to confront Xianmen head-on.

Ji Wuchen nodded.

"I understand, thank you Your Majesty."

Nangong Jing sighed.

"Maybe, you will have resentment against me in your heart—"

"No, no, I can still tell whether it is good for me or bad for me."

Ji Wuchen interrupted Nangong Jing's words.

The Empress was slightly stunned.

"Then, that's fine."

The two chatted along this matter for a while until late at night.

Looking up at the sky, the dark clouds are a bit thick tonight, covering the moon and stars, and there may be rain falling.

The empress chatted with each other, feeling a little surprised.

Wei Gaochen said that he would go to General Tiance's mansion to investigate, why didn't he come back after so long?
"General, I'm afraid it will rain outside, and it's getting late, why don't you just rest in the palace."

Taking a sip of the tea in front of him, Nangong Jing said to Ji Wuchen with a smile.

The empress wants me to stay in the palace overnight? !
Ji Wuchen was stunned, and it took a long time to react.

He seemed to have no reason to refuse such a thing.

Although he understood that nothing would happen if Nangong Jing stayed with him overnight.

However, before this, the empress had never invited anyone to spend the night in the palace.

"Thank you Your Majesty, I obey the order"

Ji Wuchen stood up and cupped his hands, agreeing.

So Jing'er took him to the guest room to rest alone.

The palace is huge, and there are countless such rooms, and all the vacant ones are used by the empress as guest rooms—there are no guest rooms.

The little maid's face was flushed, and she didn't dare to say a word when she was alone with a treacherous minister, she completely lost her boldness and boldness when she was beside the empress.

Ji Wuchen found that Jing'er was peeking at him, so he smiled at her.

Jing'er looked away like a frightened little rabbit, her heart beating violently.

She reacted quickly, tried her best to pretend nothing happened, and opened the door.

"Brother Wuchen, you can sleep here. This is very close to His Majesty's room. If you, if you have any orders, just call me. I will come over soon."

After Jing'er finished speaking with a blushing face, she suddenly felt that the latter sentence was ambiguous, so she quickly said: "No, it's not just me, if you need other maids, you can also call!"

After talking about Xiao Nizi, she regretted it, because the ambiguity was even more excessive.

Fortunately, Ji Wuchen just smiled and didn't take it seriously.

"I see, thank you."

Jing'er lowered her head in embarrassment.

"I, if you need to call me, just call me."

She said something quickly, then ran away shyly, and almost tripped over a slightly protruding brick in the corridor.

"A very cute little girl."

Ji Wuchen laughed, turned around and walked into the room.

The luxury and magnificence of the imperial palace is naturally unnecessary, but, looking at it this way, compared to his General Tiance's mansion, the interior decoration is not much better.

Although no one lived in the room, it was often cleaned by attendants, and it was spotless.

Ji Wuchen walked to the middle of the room and saw a delicate guqin placed on the table.

He was very interested in Guqin in his previous life, and he also learned about it in college, but he didn't study it in depth.

"It's not bad to be an ancient handsome boy who can play the piano."

Ji Wuchen smiled, and slowly sat beside the piano.
