Chu Jingan was very calm, shaking his head and saying to Concubine Yu: "Mother, Nanny is doing this for my own good, I know that. I have been in contact with my second brother quite often recently, and you are right, although my second brother is not as close to me as he is to Awu, but considering that I am our father's son, at least he will not have any bad intentions towards me."
After spending a long time with Shen Chen, Chu Jingan finally understood why Chu Jingwu was willing to follow him - Shen Chen was really a person worth getting along with. He was always at the forefront when doing things. Since he regarded you as a friend, he would treat you wholeheartedly and would never use any calculations on you.
Who doesn’t like such friends and brothers
Even Chu Jingan himself couldn't help but sigh. Seeing Concubine Yu's calm expression, he couldn't help but say, "In fact, if I can continue to get along with my second brother like this, it may not be a bad thing."
Concubine Yu knew what her son meant, so she smiled and said, "Yes, Shen Chen is indeed a good kid. It's a pity that between Chu Jingwu and you, he will definitely choose Chu Jingwu."
This is the real crux of the matter. If Shen Chen could be won over, Concubine Yu wouldn't have to go through so much trouble.
Chu Jingan's face was a little stiff.
Concubine Yu raised her eyebrows again: "But don't take it too seriously. Anyway, you have seen the current situation. Your father will not tolerate us making trouble behind his back. No matter if it is the princess or me, if anyone dares to do anything bad, he will definitely send us away without mercy. Now is not the time to be in Jiujiang. Don't you see the current situation?"
Chu Jingan was a little doubtful, not knowing why Concubine Yu said that. After hesitating for a while, he said, "Mother, I don't quite understand."
Concubine Yu did not keep the secret, she sighed and said: "Why don't you understand? Your father has not yet ascended the throne, and any disputes between his wives and concubines may be used as evidence against him. How can he tolerate it? Therefore, we must abide by our duties now, the more we abide by our duties, the better."
Because she saw through this, and because Yin Shuang came to report the movements of Princess Linjiang, she had completely laid dormant - the Linjiang Palace was now focused on dealing with Shen Chen and Wei An, and she took this opportunity to recuperate, sit on the mountain and watch the fight, without having to do anything.
It would be best if Princess Linjiang lost. No matter what, whether based on seniority or her son, she would be able to take the position after Princess Linjiang.
If Princess Linjiang wins, it doesn’t matter. Anyway, his helpers Shen Chen and Wei An are gone, so he can just focus on dealing with Princess Linjiang.
Anyway, there is still a long time to go in the future, and the two of them will slowly be able to determine who is better.
She stood up and gently touched his head, just like she did when he was a child. "I'm sorry that you have been wronged over the years. When I calmed down and thought about it, I felt that I was no longer a human being, let alone a normal mother. It was me who brought you into this world, and it was me who instilled those thoughts that you shouldn't have... In fact, if I had been law-abiding, you might not have been without a way out..."
Chu Jing'an was confused. He didn't know why Concubine Yu was so different from usual and said such words. He looked at Nanny Peng in confusion.
Nanny Peng shook her head and just signaled him to listen carefully to what Concubine Yu said.
Concubine Yu paused and said, "It's a pity that it's too late. I have done so much over the years. I can't turn back now."
Chu Jingan felt uneasy after hearing this and whispered, "Mother!"
Concubine Yu came to her senses and realized that he was frightened, so she said, "Don't worry, I've just been idle for too long, and a lot of things have happened recently, so I have some insights. Since the road has been chosen, there is no reason to turn back. Since you have been following Shen Chen more recently, that's a good thing - after all, didn't you originally want to go to Shandong to quell the rebellion?"
Talking about this, Chu Jingan's face lit up: "Yes! I have already asked my father..."
He is not one of those people who just waits for a meal and waits for death. He has always been willing to do the right things. When he was in Jiujiang, he was at the forefront of the disaster relief work. He pursed his lips and looked at Concubine Yu: "Mother, I know you have been wronged... One day, I will be able to make you glorious by relying on myself!"
There is no need to use these shady methods in the backyard anymore, which will make you look unrecognizable and haggard all the time.
Concubine Yu was very happy about her son's ambitions. She smiled and patted his head and said, "As a mother, I am very happy to hear you say this. You are right. You should have the ability yourself... But before that, we should first settle the marriage..."
Seeing Chu Jingan blushing suddenly, she said earnestly, "You and Chu Jingwu are about the same age. Shen Chen's marriage is over, so it's naturally the prince's and your turn. You should get married too. I'm not telling you this because I want to interfere in your marriage, and your father won't allow it. I want to tell you that, if nothing else, you should learn from Shen Chen. No matter what, you must respect and love your wife, and discuss everything with her, so that you can live a good life together."
Don't snow Emperor Longqing and Prince Linjiang.
Although Prince Linjiang was blameless towards his wife, the incident involving Princess Changle left Princess Linjiang with a grudge, and he later over-indulged her.
When it comes to treating wives and concubines, it is very important to know when to stop.
Concubine Yu frowned, sighed and said nothing.
In fact, if Shen Chen could really reject Qingshuang's temptation and was truly devoted to Wei An, then it has to be said that these two people would be invincible.
How strong must a man's character be to be able to withstand the temptations of the outside world and remain faithful to his wife
She hoped that her son would have the same character.
Chu Jingan agreed.
Concubine Yu then said, "If that person over there continues to act like this, no matter how Chu Jingwu tries to mediate, Shen Chen will definitely fall out with that person. The reason why I can keep my composure is because of this. Don't worry about other things, just follow Shen Chen more. Since you want to go to Shandong, you should follow him even more. Didn't you say that you admire him very much? Then show your sincerity. He knows what is good and what is bad. If I behave myself, he will not refuse to give you this face."
Chu Jingan understood what his mother meant, and he was somewhat relieved. He quickly smiled and said, "Son knows everything."
Concubine Yu nodded, thought for a moment and said, "You will definitely follow him to the wedding, right? Prepare well. I won't keep you any longer. Take care of yourself."
Chu Jingan obviously became more lively and left with a smile. (To be continued)
