Chapter 122: We share the good times, and you take the bad times
Cheng Jin immediately put on a smile and looked at Chu Chengye.
"Your Majesty is the most tolerant and considerate person. How could you be angry with me for such a small matter, right, Your Majesty?"
Cheng Jin thought she was good at flattering. Those prominent figures all put their own face first.
Chu Chengye was not an ordinary person. He had long been immune to Cheng Jin's words.
Cheng Jin was not sincere. She had already scolded him hundreds of times in her heart. Chu Chengye could not believe it even if he wanted to.
"If you think so, I'm totally wrong. I'm selfish and narrow-minded, and I'll take revenge for any slight."
"You rejected me so much in front of those court officials today, I'm really angry."
Cheng Jin laughed dryly and tugged at the corner of Chu Chengye's clothes. Her cautious look almost made Chu Chengye unable to continue acting.
Cheng Jin whispered, "Your Majesty, I didn't mean it."
It was rare to see Cheng Jin like this, and Chu Chengye's heart seemed to be hit hard by something.
Chu Chengye straightened his expression and coughed lightly.
"Okay, I was just joking with you."
Cheng Jin nodded fiercely and flattered him, "Your Majesty is worthy of being the emperor, even this joke is extraordinary."
Chu Chengye: "..."
Seeing Chu Chengye sitting next to him, Cheng Jin thought of the doubts he had just had, and he looked at Chu Chengye seriously.
"Why did the emperor get so angry in the palace just now?"
Xu Fenghui's temper has always been like this. He never restrained his temper when he followed the previous emperor, let alone Chu Chengye, the young new emperor.
He is also Xu Jilin's brother and Chu Chengye's uncle. His status is so noble that he naturally doesn't know how to restrain his words.
Today's matter can be big or small, but it's just because Xu Fenghui couldn't stand Cheng Jin saying a few words to her.
But according to Xu Fenghui's achievements, it's nothing if he just said it.
But Chu Chengye got so angry with Xu Fenghui, and Chu Chengye shouldn't be like this.
Chu Chengye turned his head to look at Cheng Jin, and said calmly: "I suddenly feel unhappy, and Duke Xu chose to criticize me at this moment, so I will naturally not tolerate it."
Cheng Jin was stunned for a moment, as if something was wrong.
"Uh, Your Majesty, Duke Xu is talking about me, right?"
Chu Chengye asked without hesitation: "What's the difference between talking about you or me?"
Cheng Jin stared at Chu Chengye's face, with a curious look on her face.
"So, Your Majesty is so angry, it's not because of me, right?"
Chu Chengye seemed to have been poked at something, jumped up from the bed, walked two steps outside, turned his back to Cheng Jin, so that she wouldn't see his panic.
Chu Chengye sneered to cover himself up.
"How is that possible?"
"I was like that in the palace only because Lord Xu didn't take me seriously. I am the emperor, and he treated me like that, which was disrespectful to me. I just said a few words to him, is there anything wrong with that?"
Cheng Jin shook her head, "No, no."
[There is nothing wrong with what I said, but you seem to have some problems! ]
[I just asked you a question, why are you so excited? ]
[No way, no way, is it really because of me? ]
[Could it be Xi...]
Before Cheng Jin could finish her thoughts, Chu Chengye immediately denied it, "No!"
Chu Chengye turned around and faced Cheng Jin, his voice louder than before.
Cheng Jin was shocked and thought Chu Chengye was still denying what he said before, that it was because of her.
Cheng Jin got off the bed and walked towards Chu Chengye.
Chu Chengye looked at Cheng Jin who was getting closer and closer. His face was normal, but his heart was beating like a drum. He took a step back imperceptibly.
"What are you doing?"
Cheng Jin didn't understand why Chu Chengye reacted so strongly, but she continued to approach Chu Chengye. "No matter what, the emperor blocked the matter for me today, and I should say thank you to the emperor."
Cheng Jin took Chu Chengye's hand. "If the emperor needs my help in the future, I will definitely not refuse."
Chu Chengye was stunned for a moment, but did not withdraw his hand.
Chu Chengye smiled unexpectedly and teased Cheng Jin, "Can you help me?"
Cheng Jin was instantly furious, "You look down on me?"
[If I can't help, I'll make things worse, okay? ]
Chu Chengye chuckled, raised his hand to cover Cheng Jin's head, and rubbed it gently.
"Okay, you help me in the future."
At the same time, Cheng Jin patted Chu Chengye's shoulder.
[From now on, we are allies. ]
[Good friends share happiness and difficulties in life. ]
Cheng Jin thought clearly. She has completely deviated from the plot in the book to reach this situation now, and it is almost impossible for her to remain unscathed.
Now Xu Jilin and the others regard her as a thorn in their eyes, and she can't hide even if she wants to.
Although she doesn't know why Chu Chengye has changed his attitude towards her, at least from now on, Chu Chengye is the only one who treats her better for the time being. It
is almost impossible for her to deal with Xu Jilin alone, so she can only unite with Chu Chengye.
Cheng Jin helps him guard against Chu Huaian, and she also needs the protection of Chu Chengye's identity. Kill
two birds with one stone.
Chu Chengye turned his head and saw Cheng Jin's hand on his shoulder. He frowned in displeasure. Cheng Jin noticed it immediately and immediately withdrew her hand. Cheng
Jin smiled and said, "It was a mistake."
Chu Chengye had found an excuse to go out to see Cheng Jin. The banquet was not over yet, so Chu Chengye asked Cheng Jin to go back to the palace and he went back to deal with Xu Fenghui. Cheng Jin
nodded, "Duke Xu dared to be so arrogant because of the Xu Family Army in his hands."
"Your Majesty can try to weaken the power of Xu Family Army in Xu Fenghui's hands, give him an official title, but not give him power."
Chu Chengye said: "Xu Family Army swears to be loyal to Xu Fenghui until death, and only listens to Xu Fenghui's orders. How can it be so easy to weaken?" Chu Chengye
has thought about it. Since ascending the throne, what Chu Chengye is most afraid of is Xu Family Army in Xu Fenghui
's hands. But Xu Family Army only listens to Xu Fenghui's orders. Even if he takes Xu Family Army back from Xu Fenghui, it will be useless.
Now, although Cheng Jin wants him to weaken Xu Fenghui's power, it is not easy.
Cheng Jin said: "If you can't start with Xu Fenghui, the emperor will find a breakthrough from other places." Chu Chengye
lowered his eyes and looked at Cheng Jin.
Cheng Jin pointed in the direction of the hall.
"People around Xu Fenghui."
"They can control the officials in the court, including the emperor. If that doesn't work, they can use the strategy of alienation. They can also let them taste the consequences of their own actions by using these methods on the emperor."
Chu Chengye nodded, "You are right. I used to disdain to use these methods, but since they have already taken action against me, why should I show mercy to them?"
Chu Chengye immediately called Wei An, "Go and do something for me."
