Why Cry After Returning to Modern Times, When You Gave Me Silent Treatment Before?

The marquis brought back a transmigrated woman from the battlefield. She was foolish and arrogant, held lingerie shows in ancient times, declared that everyone was equal, and made a complete fool o...

Chapter 167 Double Eagle

"Today's performance was truly shocking. You really killed two birds with one stone."

"Among them, some are here to gain leverage over the Marquis' Mansion, some want to marry into the Marquis' Mansion, and some have other agendas, waiting for you to expose the Marquis' Mansion's secrets so they can profit from it."

"And you, didn't say a word."

"That's right. If something happens in the Marquis' Mansion, you have no one behind you. If you provoke them, you can easily become a shield."

"What's more, I was able to successfully sell out all the apprentices in your martial arts school through this incident."

Of course Chen Wei is not that stupid.

In this era dominated by imperial power, it is unacceptable to speak ill of the Marquis' Mansion openly.

People like Xie Yuchuan are selfish and may do something extreme. The most important thing right now is to protect himself and live a good life.

Chen Wei suppressed his thoughts and handed a plate of cakes to Miss Lu with a smile.

Changing the subject, he said:

"This is also the result of their hard work and training. If it weren't for their own strength, you wouldn't be so foolish as to hire a female guard based on a single performance."

“I just gave them a platform to showcase their learning achievements!”

Miss Lu nodded in approval. "Indeed, their skills are quite good, and they have good judgment. They are more than enough to serve as the accompanying guards."

Having said that, Miss Lu once again looked at Chen Wei with admiration.

"But you are also very creative. You can come up with such a good idea."

“Miss Shen, sometimes I really wonder what’s going on in your brain. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t mean to scold you.”

"I'm really curious, why do you always come up with so many incredible ideas?"

Chen Wei smiled and said, "I am proud of myself for having come this far."

When Ms. Lu heard this, she was stunned for half a second.

Chen Wei's style of doing things is really different from others.

When others are praised, they should be more modest, right? But Chen Wei accepted the praise so openly, and said that she was very satisfied with herself and felt that she was excellent.

Miss Lu looked into Chen Wei's eyes and suddenly smiled with relief.

Perhaps only she would put aside past grudges and shoot that arrow to save herself at the most critical moment.

"Miss Shen, I think you should just start another opera troupe."

"The scripts you adapted are different from other scripts. Every time, your scripts are always unexpected and can't be guessed by common sense."

"Last time I thought your adaptation was bold enough, but I didn't expect you to even go so far as to involve reincarnation this time? And different time periods, and women can also join the army and government. It's really interesting..."

While Shen Wei was talking to Miss Lu, noble ladies came over one after another and took the initiative to greet Chen Wei.

In the past, they would have regarded Chen Wei as a scourge and wanted to stay away from him.

Now it's coming from the west?

Or was it because Miss Lu was close to her that she lowered her airs and started talking to her?

“Miss Shen, today’s song really impressed us.”

Several young ladies from official families came from not far away. One of them, who was wearing blue clothes, looked at Chen Wei deeply.

For some reason, I suddenly said something that was buried deep in my heart.

She spoke softly, as if wanting Chen Wei to hear only, "My elder sister was once a very good archer. Five years ago, during the autumn hunting grounds, a black bear strayed into the area. At the time, all the male relatives and the prince were competing."

"She was the one who stood up and shot down the black bear, winning the applause of the whole audience."
