After a tragic death and rebirth, I became the regent's favorite

However, Ji Chun's response to Xiao Linchuan was just to shake her head, "I'm sorry, Your Highness, I can't say anything. I know you're asking all this for the young lady's good, but no matter what, I'm still your young lady's servant, and that won't change."

Ji Chun's answer was neither humble nor arrogant, and every word he said was just to the point. Even if Xiao Linchuan wanted to lose his temper, it was impossible.

It would be a lie to say that he was not disappointed. Xiao Linchuan originally placed his hopes on Ji Chun, but it seemed that Ji Chun would not tell him.

"Ji Chun, your young lady has changed so much, don't you want to know the reason? Don't you want to know why your young lady has changed from being timid before to being so decisive now?"

"I don't want to know."

Ji Chun shook her head firmly. She looked up at Xiao Linchuan and said, "Your Highness, the Regent, I would like to advise you that some obsessions are unnecessary. The young lady has her reasons for not telling you. When she is willing to tell you, you will know why you must be so persistent."

"Ji Chun, this is not about being obsessed with a result, but the change in your young lady is not normal at all. Can't you feel it?"

Xiao Linchuan was getting a little anxious. Although he knew that the people around Shen Moyu were all loyal, he was still troubled by their stubbornness.

"I don't want to feel that way. I just think that the young lady is very good now. At least she won't be bullied like before. Your Highness, I can tell you for sure that you are different from others in the young lady's mind."

Ji Chun actually felt a little sympathy for Xiao Linchuan. He obviously liked Shen Moyou so much and had done so many things for Shen Moyou, but in the end not only did he get nothing, he didn't even know when Shen Moyou changed. It was quite sad to think about it.

Xiao Linchuan felt mixed emotions, knowing that no matter what Ji Chun said, it would not make sense. However, he was not in a hurry, as he had plenty of time anyway.

However, his lack of anxiety was only limited to the premise that Shen Moyu did not reject his kindness. Once Shen Moyu showed the slightest sign of being indifferent, Xiao Linchuan would panic and have no idea what to do.

"I know this clearly without your reminder."

Xiao Linchuan still has some confidence, but too many things have happened in recent days. He feels that Shen Moyu is a little too sensitive. Many things could have been avoided, but because of Shen Moyu's sensitivity, they were all unavoidable.

"Since His Royal Highness the Regent knows everything, then why are you so worried? Since the young lady asked you to give her some time, why don't you listen to her and give her some time?"

Ji Chun persuaded Xiao Linchuan patiently, knowing that he was already somewhat shaken, so he continued to persuade him, "Besides, you have also seen that the young lady is obsessed with revenge now, and is unwilling to spend too much time on anything else, so you just wait patiently."

There seems to be no better way than this. Now, whenever Shen Moyu hears the word "revenge", she becomes energized. As for everything else, it seems to have nothing to do with her.

Xiao Linchuan had a new respect for Ji Chun. Although he knew that the maids around Shen Moyu were not ordinary maids, not everyone was as clear-headed as Ji Chun.

"In that case, then take good care of your young lady. If you have any problem, feel free to come to me."

Xiao Linchuan was finally convinced, because he knew that he could not change Shen Moyu no matter what, so it would be faster for him to change himself.

"I know."

After sending Xiao Linchuan away, Ji Chun finally breathed a sigh of relief. This Regent Prince was too difficult to fool.

……

After leaving Ziyun Palace, Xiao Linchuan did not leave the palace directly, but took a detour to meet Xiao Ling.

"Uncle, I failed to do my job well. Please punish me."

Xiao Ling couldn't help feeling guilty. He didn't expect that Xiao Ting was so difficult to deal with. He was too careless.

However, Xiao Linchuan did not intend to cause trouble for him regarding this matter. He raised his hand and asked him to stand up. "It's okay. This matter has nothing to do with you. It's not your problem."

"But little uncle, Xiao Ting is clearly a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water. Moreover, he has the protection of the emperor, so there is no guarantee that he will not turn things around."

Every word Xiao Ling said revealed his unwillingness. He had finally brought down the Queen and her two children, and he was unwilling to let all his previous efforts go to waste.

"Don't worry, Xiao Ting won't be alive for a few days."

Xiao Linchuan said this with great confidence, but Xiao Ling was confused. "Could it be that the young uncle has already thought of a way to deal with Xiao Ting?"

"not at all."

Xiao Linchuan shook his head and denied it, "This method was not thought of by me, but by Shen Moyu."

"The eldest lady of the Shen family!?"

Xiao Ling raised his voice in surprise, his tone full of disbelief, "Speaking of which, I don't quite understand. The eldest daughter of the Shen family seems to particularly hate Xiao Ting. I wonder if they had any grudges before?"

"This is not something you should be concerned about. What you need to do now is to focus on handling the matters that His Majesty has entrusted to you. Although he has a favorable eye for Xiao Ting, you should not forget that what Xiao Ting did before was enough to make Emperor Mingzhen feel uncomfortable at a critical moment."

What Xiao Linchuan said was true. After all, what Xiao Ting had done before was unacceptable to anyone.

"Yes, I understand. I have tried my best to do all these things. But little uncle, you may not know that the eldest daughter of the Shen family seems to have tried to persuade my mother to fake her death and follow my fourth sister to Dazhao. Are you aware of this?"

When Xiao Ling asked this question, he actually had some intention of calling him to task. Although he listened to Xiao Linchuan very much, he also had people he wanted to protect, and Concubine Ruan and Xiao Xuan were his weaknesses.

"I asked her to do this."

Xiao Linchuan nodded in acknowledgment, and explained slowly, "It was indeed me who asked her to persuade Concubine Ruan, because only by doing so can your mother and your sister be saved."

"What are you talking about, little uncle?"

Xiao Ling frowned in confusion. He thought that his mother should just stay in Mingzhen, because Mingzhen would change its owner sooner or later anyway.

And there is no doubt that this master is him. If it is him, then what is there to be afraid of? He would not possibly harm his own mother. So, in the final analysis, how could it be dangerous for Concubine Ruan to stay in Mingzhen?

"Do you think Concubine Ruan can stay in Mingzhen?"

Xiao Linchuan did not answer him directly, but asked him instead, "Xiao Ling, do you think that I promised you that I would hand Mingzhen over to you, and you can worry about everything?"

"I didn't think so. I just felt that my mother was my father's concubine after all, so she should be fine."
