The Best Fake Eunuch
Chapter 59 Time and Destiny
Xiao Chen rented a small courtyard for Chen Jisheng, hired a cook and a few servants to serve him, and told them to take good care of him. Could it be that they dare to be presumptuous?
"Uncle Xiao, it's too late for us to respect Mr. Chen like an ancestor. Who dares to treat him slowly!"
A young servant yelled for injustice with a bitter face.
"It's Mr. Chen who insists on going home. Without your old order, we wouldn't dare to let him go? That's why we are angry with us."
But it turned out that Chen Jisheng had become a second-rank official in the capital, but he was alone and did not bring his family.
This may be the only one among the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.
He had a heart of serving the country and the people, but in exchange for such an end, he felt depressed, and he didn't want to stay in the capital for a day, so he wanted to go home.
"Oh, so that's the case, but Mr. Chen, your wounds haven't healed yet, and the road is not peaceful, so how do you go back? If the wounds on the road flare up, it will be even worse. It's better to wait for you to heal your wounds, and then I'll send someone to send you back. You go back." Xiao Chen persuaded with kind words.
"I don't need to bother you about this, you just need to remove these guards and let me go." Chen Jisheng was angry, and his words were harsh.
"It's not Master Chen, are you really guilty of what you said? My boss spent so much money and hired so many people to take care of you, not to watch you!"
Wei Yuntian heard that this was not pleasant to his ears, and said in his heart that he was really kind enough to treat him like a donkey's liver and lungs!
Not only did my boss save your old life, but he was also afraid that you would be punished, so he sent me to bribe the executioners to beat you lightly, otherwise, if your old wounds are not healed, these twenty boards will kill you half your life !
You have found so many people to take care of you, even if he is your own son, it's nothing more than that, right?
It's fine if you're not grateful, but you're still spitting blood!
"Who told him to save me? Who told him to take care of me? Who knows what kind of tricks he has? Let me tell you, kid, either let me go, or I'll hit my head and die here!" It turned out that Chen Jisheng Not appreciative at all.
"You stubborn old man, are you unreasonable?" Xiao Chen couldn't help being angry, he had never seen such a person before!
"Reason with me? You deserve it too!" Chen Jisheng rushed over and stretched out his hand to push Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen almost dodged him with a flash.
Hurriedly hugged him, "I really convinced you, okay, okay, you can leave if you want, I don't care about you, can't you?"
Really sad.
"As you are now, can you walk a long distance? You can't even ride a mule. I see you crawling back, you!"
"Mules can't ride, can't I ride a cart?" Chen Jisheng said.
"Do you have the money to hire a car?" Xiao Chen sneered.
"Uh...you don't need to worry about this, I have my own way!" Chen Jisheng was stunned for a moment, but he still kept his mouth firm.
Don't look at him as a second-rank official, but he has a breeze in his sleeves.
The salary is actually not too small, but the rice in Beijing is expensive, and the usual expenses are quite a lot, and they have to be sent to the family, so the daily life is actually very tight.
After he was imprisoned, people from Jinyiwei ransacked his house, but they searched the ground three feet, and found only a dozen or so taels of silver, a few old clothes, and some pens, ink, papers and inkstones, and nothing else!
It is said that Li Wanjiang was silent for a long time after learning about this incident, which may be one of the reasons why he did not kill Chen Jisheng.
The Yushi Mansion where he lived was rewarded by the emperor. Now that he is a guilty minister, the house has naturally been taken back.
So after he came out of the imperial prison, he was almost penniless.
Not to mention hiring carts and mules, even eating is a problem!
"Boss, just let him go, I think he will freeze to death if he can't get out of the capital!" Wei Yuntian's nose was crooked.
"I won't let you go out of this door." Xiao Chen sighed, and ordered the servant, "Go and get some food and wine, I'll have a drink with Master Chen."
When the food and drinks were served, Xiao Chen asked Wei Yuntian and the others to go out and wait, he wanted to have a private chat with Chen Jisheng.
"My lord, what do I not understand about your thoughts? You are afraid of hurting me." Xiao Chen picked up the jug and filled it up for him.
"Not only you, but also the queen...Danqiu, she asked you to save me, right? I grew up with this child. Although she is a woman, she is very kind."
There were only two people facing each other in the room, Chen Jisheng didn't get angry or crazy, he just sighed leisurely.
It turned out that he knew everything, and just now when he got mad in front of everyone, he was just acting.
"Since this matter has been done, it cannot be separated from the relationship. On the contrary, if you leave now, your life will be in danger. I think there are many people in the capital who want your life? If something happens to you, the queen Didn't I save you for nothing?"
Xiao Chen knows the reason.
"Hehe, don't be fooled by the emperor, but he is actually very shrewd. He can't hide this matter from him. If he spares my life, I'm afraid it's because of Dan Qiu's face."
"But you can save me. If you continue to entangle with me, he will become suspicious, which is especially bad for you."
Chen Jisheng's heart is like a mirror.
He is just stubborn, but never confused.
"Anyway, it's like this. I don't care about so many things. You can leave if you want, but you have to recover from your injury... Otherwise, I will send Concubine Liu Gui to visit her relatives in a few days. Can we go together then?"
Chen Jisheng's home is also in the south of the Yangtze River, Xiao Chen and the others were going to take the waterway first, and happened to pass by.
"Xiao Chen, in the final analysis, you saved my life. I can't repay you. Let me toast you with this glass of wine." Chen Jisheng raised his glass and drank it down.
"My lord, what are your plans for the future? Do you just stay at home for the rest of your life? I think what the queen means is that she wants you to go to Zhenxihou." Xiao Chen also drank it down.
"Hehe, I can go anywhere, but I can't go to Luomapo!" Chen Jisheng laughed.
"Well, I think so too, but it's a pity that your ability to govern the country and your heart to serve the country are too bad." Xiao Chen agreed.
"Time is also destiny." Chen Jisheng sighed.
After drinking cup after cup, he was finally as drunk as mud.
It was rare for Xiao Chen to be free, and he didn't want to go back to the palace after he came out of Chen Jisheng's residence, so he let his horse rein, and went all the way out of the East City Gate.
When I came to Baihua Mountain outside the city, I saw green bamboos and green grass, singing birds and fragrant flowers, and the scenery of spring filled the mountains and plains.
He was delighted to see it, and before he knew it, it was almost dusk.
Just as he was about to go back, an old monk with a medicine basket on his back suddenly walked out from the side of the mountain road.
He looked at Xiao Chen's eyes, put his palms together, and recited the Buddha's name: "Amitabha, the benefactor, stay away."
"What are you going to do, old monk?" Wei Yuntian and other guards rushed over to pull him away.
"He is so old, why are you pushing him? Get out of the way!" Seeing that the old monk was almost knocked down by several people, Xiao Chen hurriedly told them to stop.
"Amitabha, you know that the little benefactor is a kind person, and the poor monk is invisible, so it is polite here." The old monk said.
The words are good words, but in Xiao Chen's ears, it feels a little awkward.
Good man and fan man have different words, but they have the same pronunciation, okay?
"My name is Xiao Chen, what can Master Invisible teach me?" Xiao Chen has always respected the old man.
