This is not something that can be accomplished overnight. King Linjiang looked at Shen Chen tolerantly, then frowned again: "I asked you to work hard, but I didn't ask you to work on it day and night. When you go there for a while, you will naturally be able to figure it out."
Shen Chen replied in a listless voice, and even had time to ask about Concubine De's childbirth: "It's rumored outside that another little prince was born in the palace?"
King Linjiang hummed, threw the folding fan in his hand on the table without much concern, looked at his three sons and nodded: "You guys should be more careful in your actions recently and don't cause any trouble."
He glanced at Chu Jingxing again, with a warning in his eyes: "Xianrong is not Li Guiniang, you should restrain yourself."
This means that he knew all the methods Chu Jingxing used to reject Li Gui Niang's marriage proposal.
Chu Jingxing stood up respectfully and responded, standing aside with his head bowed.
King Linjiang said, "As for the Wei family, your uncle Zheng may seem quiet, but he is not someone you can easily deal with. You can handle it yourself. That Wei Qi..."
When he said this, he glanced at Shen Chen again, then turned his head to stare at Chu Jingxing: "That Wei Qi, try not to provoke him if you can. This time you pushed Li Shao and Li Gui Niang to her to deal with, she knows what's going on. Such a smart girl, with a backstage to protect her, if she hadn't been thinking about Achen, do you think you could have gotten away with it so easily?"
Chu Jingxing still did not argue and just bowed his head and obeyed.
Chu Jingwu curled his lips.
He didn't like his elder brother, not because he listened to anyone's instigation, nor because of what Princess Linjiang said, that they were separated for too long and too far away so there was no affection.
It's just because I can't stand it.
Happy or unhappy, wanting it or not, never really saying it out loud, just keeping it in your heart for people to guess and think about.
It's really tiring to get along with such people.
Chu Jingxing didn't pay any attention to him, his mind was full of thoughts about the Fujian Maritime Customs.
This matter was actually really handed over to Shen Chen. He didn't think that anything would happen if Shen Chen did it. After all, Shen Chen was not his father's biological son. Even if he wanted to snatch him in the future, he would not be able to stand firm.
What he was worried about was still that - Shen Chen would become a helper to Chu Jingwu or Chu Jingan.
Prince Linjiang seemed to be retreating step by step recently. He even started to go to Taoist temples like a carefree wanderer, acting like a superstitious believer in gods and Buddhas. However, he knew that his father had already started to take action.
From the beginning of Prince Duan to the current fight between the two palaces, my father had instigated every step of the way.
Sooner or later they will have to take that path, and by that time, Shen Chen
King Linjiang coughed, interrupting his train of thought. He heard King Linjiang gently admonish Shen Chen: "Don't run around recently. You're about to leave for Fujian, so you have to prepare first!"
He has always been like this to Shen Chen, and Shen Chen has become accustomed to it. He responded with an "understood" and took Chu Jingwu away.
Chu Jingxing stood in the corridor, watching him and Chu Jingxing walk away playing and fighting, then he let out a sigh of indifference.
Guardian...
He turned the name over in his mind, and then looked at Shen Chen's receding back, and suddenly thought of something - Shen Chen seemed to be very unusual towards Wei An.
Unlike their expectations for their biological son, and also because of their own deliberate hints, their mother, Princess Linjiang, began to put some girls in Shen Chen's room very early on.
They are all born beautiful and well-behaved. Some are dutiful while others are not. Some are literate while others are illiterate. All kinds of people are gathered together.
The purpose is to make sure Shen Chen has someone he likes.
But Shen Chen just treated all the people in the room as decoration and didn't even look at any of them.
He turned a blind eye to these beautiful women, and he didn't look very kindly towards Princess Yonghe either...
Chu Jingxing narrowed his eyes, waved to have his followers come over, coughed and asked him: "You said that the prince took Miss Wei Qi to Phoenix Terrace?"
The followers should be respectful.
Chu Jingxing smiled, hummed meaningfully, and said casually: "Very good, keep an eye on Miss Wei Qi... If she goes to see the prince, tell me, "
If Shen Chen really cared about Wei An and had other thoughts, then it would be fun. Chu Jingxing was even happier. He walked under the corridor with his hands behind his back, calmed down a little, and then slowly let out a breath.
Overall, this time it was very good - Li Gui Niang was such a fool. He had looked down on her since the beginning. She was so easily provoked and had no opinions of her own. She was like a piece of exploding charcoal. Marrying such a person would not be a help, but a burden.
But why would he want a burden
The Princess of Xianrong County is a capable person...
He recalled the profound words that Lady Xianrong had asked someone to convey to him when they were at the Tongzhou villa, and he suddenly smiled.
At first, Lady Xianrong didn't know that he had actually sent someone to tell Wei An what Li Gui Niang had done, and even had someone hint at what Li Gui Niang had done.
He was so scheming and tried so hard to step on Li Gui Niang.
Others might think that Lady Xianrong disregarded sisterly love, but he admired her very much.
Because people who know how to plan for themselves are always much better than those who only care about love affairs. As long as such a man who knows the times serves her well, she will naturally know which side to stand on.
He had unknowingly arrived at Princess Linjiang's courtyard, and his expression softened involuntarily.
No matter what, his mother has always been partial to him and on his side.
Someone had already come out to greet him. He waved his hand and didn't ask for permission. When he entered, he heard Princess Linjiang instructing Nanny Jin: "Just give the same gift as the one given to Fengyi Palace. There are old rules for giving birth to princes in the palace. Just follow them. Don't go overboard."
If you go too far, you will catch the eye of Queen Fang.
Moreover, even out of selfish motives, she didn't want to see Concubine Yu being arrogant.
Mother Jin agreed, and then said cautiously: "The palace has also summoned Concubine Yu to go with us..."
Princess Linjiang was silent for a moment.
Defei had given birth to a son, and she was so confident that she wanted to help her sister. She sneered, looked through the gift list in Jin Mama's hand, and said indifferently, "Since the Empress in the palace has ordered us to go, let's go together. You go and let Concubine Yu prepare well. Don't be impolite."
Now Concubine De cannot be offended. She wants to promote Concubine Yu, and no one can say anything bad about her, let alone stop her. In this case, Concubine Yu will have to go.
Chu Jingxing paused for a moment before turning around the antique shelf and entering the east room, calling out softly to his mother.
When Princess Linjiang saw him, the frost on her face immediately melted away. She agreed and quickly asked someone to serve tea and fruit.
