The sky was gradually getting dark, but Chu Jingxing, for the first time, did not dislike spending too much time with Shen Chen. After sighing, he looked at Shen Chen with a wry smile and asked him softly, "Do you know why I have hated you since I was a child?"
Shen Chen didn't say anything, but his expression was a little hesitant, obviously wanting to know.
As long as he wanted to know, Chu Jingxing was willing to tell him.
The most important thing for him now is to stabilize Shen Chen, and the best topic is to arouse Shen Chen's interest.
He smiled bitterly, "When I was born, my mother was in poor health. At that time, my father had just arrived at his fiefdom and was busy with affairs. Moreover, that place was poor. Even though he was a vassal king, our life was not so easy. At that time, my father did something to make my grandfather unhappy, so my grandfather punished him by sending him to that place. My mother fell ill and later returned to the capital to recuperate, but it was of little use. We finally found a female doctor with excellent medical skills to treat leukorrhea, and my father later sent her to your mother."
"Because of this, my mother has always had a bad health. After giving birth to Awu, she couldn't get pregnant again. After a few miscarriages, she never had any more children." Chu Jingxing smiled bitterly, "I don't hate you because of this, but this imbalance has existed since you were born, and it has always been with me. Wherever you are, I am always the one who is ignored. Even my own brother is closer to you than to me, and he distances himself from me because of you."
Chu Jingxing spoke sincerely while quickly thinking of a solution in his mind.
Shen Chen may look cynical, but he is not a conscienceless person.
At least he has been thinking about Princess Linjiang's love for so many years, not to mention Chu Jingwu and Prince Linjiang. As long as he humbles himself and plays the emotional card, it is not impossible to make Shen Chen soften his heart.
Even though his soft-heartedness didn't last long.
As long as it is enough for him to react, it will be enough - kill Shen Chen to silence him and make him unable to speak forever.
And then they would put the blame on Liu Biping - saying that Liu Biping was afraid of Shen Chen becoming the commander of the Maritime Customs, so he killed Shen Chen in advance to eliminate future troubles.
If that doesn't work...
It’s not impossible to say that it was Zheng Si who did it.
Then let Zheng Si tell Liu Biping what he had told him before, to completely eliminate the trouble. Then let Zheng Si say that it was because he leaked the news to Liu Biping that Shen Chen wanted to hand him over to King Linjiang for punishment, so he wanted to kill Shen Chen to silence him... ...
Both of these methods seem reasonable.
Either one can be used on Shen Chen.
Of course, the most important thing now is to stabilize Shen Chen first, so that it will be easier to take action.
He finally buried his head in his hands and cried bitterly: "It was my selfishness that caused me to do this..."
He had already behaved so humbly, and as he expected, Shen Chen finally followed his words and asked, "Is that why you came up with this idea?"
Shen Chen's voice sounded particularly tired and melancholy: "Do you hate me so much?"
Are you so angry that you have to kill him to vent your hatred
He thought that even if they were not related by blood like Chu Jingwu, they would never be enemies.
But Chu Jingxing put the knife to his neck without hesitation, and refused to do it himself, so he became the low-knife person.
Chu Jingxing was silent for a moment, and it seemed like he was silent for a long time.
The most important thing now is to stabilize Shen Chen.
He thought about it, and closed his eyes with a look of pain on his face. He neither admitted nor denied it, lowered his head and whispered, "I'm sorry."
He knew Shen Chen would fall for this.
In the final analysis, Shen Chen is a person who is tough on the outside but soft on the inside, and Chu Jingxing understands this very well.
Even when Shen Chen was a child, he was a favored child of heaven and was spoiled. He seemed arrogant and willful, but he was never aggressive. No matter if you offended him, as long as you were willing to admit your mistakes to him, he would forgive you.
This is one of the few advantages of Shen Chen in his eyes, but it is also Shen Chen's fatal weakness.
He has always been good at taking advantage of other people's weaknesses.
And if this person was Shen Chen, he would have even less guilt.
Not to mention that he had the determination to kill Shen Chen by borrowing a knife before, now that Shen Chen had the evidence against him, he had no choice but to kill Shen Chen.
He has always been sensible and calm. In his father's eyes, he has almost no other shortcomings except that he dislikes Shen Chen. Once this matter is exposed by Shen Chen, he can't imagine how disappointed his father will be.
My father was originally closer to Chu Jingwu...
But this time he misjudged himself and Shen Chen.
Almost at the same time as he blurted out "I'm sorry", the screen fell to the ground with a bang.
The setting sun shone in through the window, and there were tiny floating objects in the air everywhere. Through this somewhat unsettling light, Chu Jingxing suddenly saw King Linjiang sitting quietly behind the screen, turning his head indifferently, with an indescribable mood.
Fell into a trap!
Chu Jingxing stood up in astonishment and looked at King Linjiang in confusion, not knowing how to react for a moment.
But his brain was already working rapidly.
From Shen Chen returning home, to Zheng Si disappearing, to him questioning Chu Jingwu and then finding this place...it was all a trap set by Shen Chen.
He had no so-called evidence at all, and he might not even have interrogated Zheng Si. All he did was to lure Zheng Si into a trap and make him confess everything.
He simply took advantage of his guilty conscience and took advantage of the loophole.
He had no so-called evidence to prove that he was the one who instructed someone to leak the information to Liu Biping.
But I told my father everything...
Shen Chen!
Before he could figure out how to respond, King Linjiang had already made his move. He walked a few steps in front of him, slapped him in the face with a sullen face, and whispered, "Ridiculous!"
It's really ridiculous.
The prince of a royal family is so intolerant.
Fortunately, he was the prince of the royal palace who was taught by Xia Song himself.
King Linjiang watched Chu Jingxing slowly lower his head and then raise it again as if he wanted to say something. He just sneered and ordered Xuanmiao without turning his head, "Take the prince back to the palace."
Then he walked past Chu Jingxing and walked towards Shen Chen, with a complicated and somewhat guilty look on his face, he lowered his head and sighed: "You should go back too."
After what happened, he didn't know how he would have the face to see his sister in the future.
The only thing she cared about in this world was Shen Chen's flesh and blood, but he could hardly protect even this flesh and blood for her...
Chu Jingxing didn't say anything else. At this moment, he knew that whatever he said would be in vain. He just turned around and glanced at Shen Chen.
