Feeling Chu Jingyuan's anger through the mobile phone, Zhang Qingning continued to do self-psychological construction, telling himself that this is not the ancient times, and then he managed to calm down.
"Boss, this... I don't know about this." Zhang Qingning said helplessly, "You know things like shadow guards, who cares about them? I only know that Mu Chi came out of the Empress's Mansion and won all the way in the end." Overwhelmed everyone and took the highest position among the shadow guards. The rest... I don't know."
Chu Jingyuan was immediately annoyed. He didn't care about the Shadow Guards at all back then, because the Shadow Guards were crucial to the safety of all the nobles in the palace, so the review and training were extremely strict, and the rules and regulations were extremely strict. Like clerical. The entire shadow guard system is not allowed to have any real power, and must be supervised by a higher level.
This system has been established and operated since the emperor before Chu Jingyuan and Xiu Lingfei, and it is very perfect, so Chu Jingyuan never cared about these shadowy people.
It's only now that he feels annoyed - no matter how he looks at it, he thinks that this man named Mu Chi is tricky.
If he was loyal to protect the lord, why did he leave Jiang Shining's mansion in the first place? If he had ambitions, it wouldn't mean that if Jiang Shining died, he would commit suicide too, right
Most importantly, Jiang Shining never said a word to Jing Yuan about this person.
The shadow guards in the palace are loyal to the emperor, not the people around them. So if Mu Chi just came out of Jiang Shining's palace, there's no need to do this at all. He didn't believe that Mu Chi could commit suicide for nothing without the slightest connection between the two.
It's fine to commit suicide in vain, this mother is reincarnated, this Mu Chi didn't rush to live his new life like Zhang Qingning, and he also appeared in the same community as them, and even raised cats and had a relationship with him, Jing Yuan suddenly felt that this person was uneasy, kind, or something was on his mind.
In the evening, Jing Yuan went to Jing Xuan to tell this matter, and Jing Xuan was also a little surprised.
"Is it the shadow guard of that incident?"
Jing Yuan nodded.
Back then, there was a concubine named Concubine Gu, whose father and elder brother were both great generals. One year, the front line was tight, and the general and his son made great contributions. In front of the imperial court, Chu Haoli naturally treated Concubine Gu very well. However, Jiang Shining was against the concubine Gu at that time. Concubine Gu had been beaten by her twice and three times before, so she wanted to get her back.
Concubine Gu conspired for a long time, and in order to frame Jiang Shining, she said that she was going to kill herself because of jealousy, and she had prepared the stolen goods and everything, so she asked Chu Hao to execute Jiang Shining severely. However, Jiang Shining had a skill, at least proving that the poisoning had nothing to do with him. Concubine Gu bit out that there was a mystery in the things Jiang Shining gave her before, just to make her look ugly in front of everyone, and asked Chu Hao to kill Jiang Shining.
Chu Haoli actually knew in her heart that this was framed by Concubine Gu, but she couldn't say anything, who made her brother and her father work hard on the front line. He compromised and asked Jiang Shining to apologize to Concubine Gu, but Jiang Shining refused, and absolutely refused to admit that this matter had anything to do with him.
In a fit of anger, he gave Jiang Shining two choices, or he would kneel outside Gu Fei's palace until this time tomorrow. Or apologise.
Jiang Shining chose the former. Chu Haoli left angrily.
Jiang Shining's health in that world was not very good, and he had never suffered. He was about to faint after kneeling for a long time, but at night, it began to rain heavily outside.
At that time, both Jing Yuan brothers were kept in the dark, no one knew about this matter. After Jiang Shining knelt in the rain for an hour, he passed out.
It was this shadow guard Mu Chi who suddenly appeared, took Jiang Shining away, and sent her back to the palace.
Jing Yuan was indeed very angry at the time, one of which was that the two had different identities and genders. As a servant, how could Mu Chi hug a concubine casually? Men and women are different. In that era, a skin-to-skin hug was no different from playing hooligans.
The other one, Chu Jingyuan was terrified. When he arrived at that time, everything had been taken care of by the people around Jiang Shining, and he only said that the palace maid carried it back. Fortunately, Chu Haoli couldn't lose face, so the matter of Jiang Shining being taken away was nothing.
If the emperor really had trouble with Jiang Shining at that time and insisted on finding out who was so bold to disobey him, then Jiang Shining and the others would all be ruined.
However, the most important thing is that Chu Jingyuan's anger is also due to his own powerlessness. He took all this anger on Mu Chi. Jing Yuan was actually a very cruel person. He wanted to kill Mu Chi at the time, so that the emperor would find out later, and there was nothing he could do. After all, everyone was executed.
But Jing Xuan persuaded him, and in the end Jing Yuan didn't kill Mu Chi.
After that, the two never saw this man again. But it was impossible for them to forget this incident, that's why they saw that Mu Chi looked familiar but couldn't remember it.
"What do you want to do?" Jing Xuan asked a little worriedly.
Speaking of which, Mu Chi risked his life to save Jiang Shining's life.
If people found out that he took Jiang Shining away, Jiang Shining herself might be fine. At that time, Chu Haoli liked Jiang Shining so much that he might not punish her, but Mu Chi would definitely die.
However, Jiang Shining was drenched in the rain for an hour, and hadn't recovered from his serious illness for more than a month. It is conceivable that if no one cares about her, she may die after one night.
Jing Xuan also thought of this at the time, so he stopped Jing Yuan.
Jing Yuan narrowed his eyes.
"I think this thing is weird." Jing Yuan said, "Would he have any unreasonable thoughts about our mother?"
"Is there any unreasonable desire to move?"
"I have no idea why he lives in this community?"
"Could it be a coincidence?"
"Where in the world is there such a coincidence!"
When the two came and went, they were a little uncertain.
Jing Xuan was a little helpless, "Then what do you want to do? Mu Chi saved our mother's life back then, and he didn't do anything bad. Can you still beat him up if you find him? Besides, seeing the two of them pass by Very familiar, our mother never told us, what can you do?"
This is what makes Chu Jingyuan extremely unhappy.
Each son feels that he is a different son. Chu Jingyuan felt that in addition to mother and son, he and Jiang Shining also had a cooperative relationship and a comrade-in-arms relationship, and he should be the son who knew her the most.
—As a result, a strange man popped out today, who seemed to know Jiang Shining, but Chu Jingyuan didn't know anything about it.
So angry!
He felt that his mother's love was fake!
At that time, both of them agreed that they would never keep any secrets and hide nothing! The agreed action steps are consistent, just in case it happens!
What the hell is going on with this shadow guard!
"Then do nothing!" Jing Yuan said with a grim expression, "Didn't this guy die for love and move? I will do what he wishes and never let my mother know of his existence!"
"That's not good. What if mother also wants to see him?" Jing Xuan hesitated.
"What's wrong?" Jing Yuan stared at him, "If Mu Chi was really important to that extent, mother should have told us to find someone long ago. She didn't mention it, which means it's just an accidental acquaintance. You But don't forget that she has experienced five lives, what's so special about one of them passing by?"
Jing Xuan still wanted to say something, but Jing Yuan directly interrupted him, "I know what you want to say. Maybe my mother has a good impression of him. Are you not afraid that the two of them will hit it off when they meet and become closer in the future?"
Jing Yuan almost made it clear - you want a stepdad
Jing Xuan: No, I don't want to.
"Okay!" Jing Xuan immediately made up his mind, "Just pretend you don't know about this matter."
The two of them explained their findings to Chen Tanliang again, mainly to tell Chen Tanliang not to talk nonsense in front of Jiang Shining.
Chen Tanliang hesitated a little.
"Is this okay?"
"Do you want a stepdad?" Jing Yuan asked.
Chen Tanliang sat down on the sofa, he sighed heavily.
"Hard to say."
"What do you mean?" Jing Yuan frowned. He never thought that Chen Tanliang would have such a reaction.
Shouldn't Chen Tanliang also raise his hands in favor of their decision
"I was thinking, if my mother and this Mr. Mu Chi are really destined, why not contact and try?" Chen Tanliang said, "A man who is willing to die for her must at least be a good man, right?"
"You want an outsider to join our current life?" Jing Yuan asked.
"Can you swear that you will stay with your mother all your life?" Chen Tanliang asked, "What if you are married? Or is everyone married?"
"Impossible." Jing Yuan frowned, "Many of us were unmarried in our previous life, and we couldn't die if we didn't get married. Why can't we stay together forever?"
Chen Tanliang sighed softly.
"We are all ordinary people now, and we only have one lifespan. What if we die first? What about my mother?" He said, "Take a step back, how do you know that mother doesn't want to have a normal love? Even if we all want to be by her side for the rest of our lives, does her life have to be completely occupied by children? Then besides being a mother, what should she do with her own life?"
His series of rhetorical questions made Jing Yuan very angry, but Jing Yuan knew that Chen Tanliang was right.
Even if it's because of the mission, Jiang Shining has already spent five lifetimes focusing on children. Now is a new era and a new opportunity to live. They should not ignore their mother's life just because of her love.
How could he know whether his mother wanted to have his own love or not
"And what's more, even if the two had a good relationship before?" Chen Tanliang said, "If you don't know each other, you have to be together. You forget that she actually has many friends of the opposite sex, but which one is she attracted to? She has her own Standard, wouldn't it be nice to have one more friend?"
Jing Yuan and Jing Xuan looked at each other.
After a moment of silence, Jing Xuan said, "I don't trust men."
He came from the ancient times of three wives and four concubines. In ancient times, men could hurt their women at will, and there were very few couples who had a single life. In this life, Jing Xuan frequently entered and exited the wealthy class. In this class, many wealthy men and women outsourced their lovers.
Jing Xuan doesn't trust men, or he doesn't trust feelings. Deep down in his heart, Jing Xuan always feels that feelings are very fragile things, mixed with all kinds of desires and demands, and true love is so difficult.
He felt that when Mu Chi committed suicide, it could not be because of his good relationship with Jiang Shining or the development of some friendship. Loyalty might make Mu Chi go to rescue Jiang Shining even though he knew he was in danger of being killed, but loyalty would never make one person commit suicide for another.
Mu Chi's love may not be accurate, he actually doesn't know what the real Jiang Shining looks like, is he just attracted by her status and appearance? Maybe Jiang Shining saved him, then he could add some deadly gratitude, enough to make a low-level man fall in love with the glamorous concubine.
But now is the modern age, after all the aura fades away, can Mu Chi still love Jiang Shining with that kind of mood? Chu Jingxuan didn't know.
Looking at the two worried royal brothers, Chen Tanliang smiled helplessly.
"Don't forget, mother doesn't believe in men." He said, "Has she ever liked scumbags? No. Maybe we should trust her vision. She has dealt with such bad men and has enough experience."
Both royal brothers hesitated. They decided to call everyone to vote—Guo Guo was excluded, of course, as she was too young to possibly understand what they were wrestling with.
In the end, Chen Tanliang, Chen Ruozhi, and Chu Jingyuan voted in favor. Qiao Huaize and Valen voted no, and Jing Xuan abstained.
This result is probably in line with imagination, but what is more unexpected is that Chu Jingyuan, who was the most resistant at first, turned his back on the camp in the end
"I was persuaded by Tan Liang." Jing Yuan said lazily, "I should trust our mother's eyes. As for what she wants, it depends on her wish."
Even Long Teng's president, Xiu Lingfei, can be pulled down by him, so what is a mere Mu Chi? If he was really the kind of man with ulterior motives, he would be wiped out by their sons in no time.
So, when Jiang Shining came back, Jing Yuan told Jiang Shining about it.
"What did you say?" Jiang Shining couldn't believe it, "Mu Chi raised this cat?"
The feeling of hearing this is very familiar, and it is not an ordinary subordinate at all.
"Should you explain it to us?" Both Jing Yuan and Jing Xuan were a little sour.
"I have nothing to explain." Jiang Shining couldn't tell whether to laugh or cry, "I rescued him back then, and found that we could chat well. But it was a bit too easy to talk to. I was afraid that the mission would be risky, so I sent him away again. gone."
Uh, it's not quite what they imagined
I feel that if the sex is changed, Jiang Shining will be a bit of a scumbag who doesn't like it. She was too calm and reserved. When I rescued a shadow guard back then, I actually enjoyed chatting with him, and Jiang Shining himself realized this. Especially sometimes, Jiang Shining couldn't help but say more things to him.
She realized that she was losing her composure, and after the two had a chat, she sent Mu Chi back to the Shadow Guard Pavilion. It is to prevent all dangers that do not go according to plan.
Jiang Shining is serious about doing the task, and will never allow himself to show any flaws.
But I didn't expect... At that time, before she died, she gave Mu Chi a special opinion, encouraged her, and wrote a document to release all the shadow guards around her, including Mu Chi.
Unexpectedly, he also committed suicide
Jiang Shining's teeth itch with hatred, she hates this word the most now. What she hopes more is that after she leaves, everyone can continue to work hard, but the reality seems to be the opposite.
When the sons saw Jiang Shining's gloomy look, they immediately became obedient.
"Mom, what do you want to do?" Chen Tanliang asked.
Jiang Shining narrowed his eyes.
"Find someone!"
…
Mu Chi moved into his new apartment overnight. Apart from the villa, Mu Chi actually didn't have much money in his hands, but fortunately he didn't have any requirements for the quality of life, so he simply moved into an apartment.
He sat on the bed and typed on the keyboard, monitoring Longteng's stock price and Xiu Lingfei's recent itinerary, and half a day passed before he knew it. Mu Chi went down to the kitchen to pour himself a glass of wine. Just then, the phone rang.
"Hello, Mr. Mu Ying." The other party said, "We are the property of xx villas. This is how it is. One of the owners asked for information about your number. So I called to ask for your opinion."
His information? Mu Chi frowned, his expression suddenly turned serious.
"Who is the other party?"
"The other party left me a name, Jiang Shining."
Mu Chi was completely stunned, his hand shook, and the water glass fell to the ground.
The author has something to say: Your sister Ning is still your sister Ning
Mu Chi: Love, love, love, love, heart, heart
