Chapter 135 He waited for the day when Cheng Jin was willing to tell everything
Cheng Jin nodded.
Chu Chengye's arrangement made sense.
Chu Huaian's test that day probably confirmed in his heart that Cheng Jin would help Chu Chengye. After listening to Xu Jilin and Qu Wanxin's words in the harem, he would definitely pay more attention to Cheng Jin and regard her as an enemy.
Now most of the things have deviated from the original plot. She only knows about some major changes. She can only help Chu Chengye by giving him strategies.
Whether she goes to Jingyang Palace every day or Chu Chengye goes to Chunhe Palace, Chu Chengye will be criticized for being addicted to the harem and ignoring state affairs, and Cheng Jin will be accused of being a demon concubine who harms the country. It is not good for them in any way.
It would be better to keep a distance between the two of us before things get worse, so as to avoid those people's suspicion.
Cheng Jin said: "Okay, I know a little about some people in this court. I'll write it down for you to use or be on guard against."
"Compared with the five princes, they are not a big threat to you, but you can only see clearly after you have wiped the sand out of your eyes."
Chu Chengye was a little surprised by Cheng Jin's reaction, thinking of what she said when she first accompanied him in Yangxin Palace.
"I am in the harem, how can I understand these things."
If Chu Chengye could not hear Cheng Jin's voice at that time, he would definitely believe her words. Now Cheng Jin actually took the initiative to tell him what she knew.
Chu Chengye deliberately asked knowingly: "Isn't Concubine Rong in the harem, so she doesn't know these things about the previous dynasty?"
Cheng Jin was a little flustered when she heard Chu Chengye ask this, and her eyes rolled around and she began to lie.
"Ah, yes, I accidentally heard my father talking about it before I entered the palace, so I know a little bit."
Chu Chengye nodded to Cheng Jin meaningfully, "Is that so."
Chu Chengye knew why Cheng Jin knew.
From Cheng Jin's inner voice, Chu Chengye also knew that Cheng Jin came from another place, a place he might never find.
And Cheng Jin knew all this because she read a book, and all of them were characters from the book.
Chu Chengye still finds it difficult to understand this statement. He is standing here alive, with flesh and blood, and his own thoughts. How can he be just a character in a book?
He believes that he is just in a different world from Cheng Jin, and everything is no different from other worlds.
So he is waiting, waiting for Cheng Jin to tell him everything.
Cheng Jin was vague about this matter. Chu Chengye knew that he just wanted to tease Cheng Jin, so he did not ask any more questions.
After hearing what Chu Chengye said, Cheng Jin took sick leave the next day.
Cuizhu had seen Cheng Jin still looking energetic for several days, and finally couldn't help asking Cheng Jin, who was lying on the chair with a comfortable look on her face, in confusion:
"Madam, are you really not feeling well?"
Cheng Jin looked around, closed her crossed legs, and said casually: "Yes, yes."
When Cuizhu saw Cheng Jin coming back, she told the outside world that she was sick, and it was almost the same to send the eunuchs and maids in the palace away. Cuizhu was so anxious that she wanted to ask Pei Yu. Cheng
Jin quickly grabbed her and said, "I'm fine, I'm fine, there's no need to ask Pei Yu."
Cuizhu stopped and looked at Cheng Jin.
Cuizhu's eyes were full of confusion. Cheng Jin picked out some important things from the whole story and told them to Cuizhu in words that Cuizhu could understand.
Cuizhu's eyes were still confused.
However, Cuizhu saw another way out. She looked at Cheng Jin and said seriously, "Your Majesty, we can take this opportunity to consolidate our position in the palace so that the noble lady Hui will not have any chance to turn over."
Cheng Jin held her forehead.
She forgot that Cuizhu was a palace intrigue master.
Cheng Jin immediately changed her strategy. She covered her head and fell on Cuizhu, crying out in pain.
"Ouch, it hurts so much. I have a headache and don't want to see anyone. Let's stay indoors."
Cheng Jin deliberately acted very exaggerated, but who knew that Cuizhu believed it and wanted to go out to invite Pei Yu again.
Cheng Jin immediately grabbed her.
"I'll be happy if you and Ziying perform a good show for me in this palace."
Cuizhu hesitated for a while and agreed, and pulled Ziying over to discuss.
Ziying was quiet, standing by and acting as a pillar, while Cuizhu played the first, second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth roles.
As expected of a mastermind in palace fighting, Cuizhu acted vividly, not wanting to miss any detail. While acting, she took out a board and wrote and drew on it to explain to Cheng Jin, fearing that Cheng Jin would not understand.
"Your Highness, don't look at the sky, look at me, otherwise how will you know what to do next time you encounter such a thing."
"Why are you looking at me, Your Highness? Look at the board, otherwise you won't understand."
"I have emphasized this many times, Your Highness, don't make the same mistake next time you encounter it."
Cheng Jin was so dizzy after hearing this, and she dreamed back to her senior year in high school. Seeing Cuizhu sighing at her, Cheng Jin almost heard Cuizhu say "You are the worst concubine I have ever had."
Anyway, she dragged Cuizhu and the others to stay in Chunhe Palace together. Although every day was boring, it was peaceful.
Chu Chengye said he would come, but he didn't come for more than ten days. Only Wei An would send some news to Cheng Jin from time to time after dark. It was estimated that Chu Chengye was too busy with the things in the previous dynasty.
Since receiving the list from Cheng Jin last time, Chu Chengye has been collecting a lot of evidence in private, rewarding those who deserve it and punishing those who deserve it.
However, those are indeed just as Cheng Jin said, they are all small characters who have nothing to do with the pain. Chu Chengye can't move the real Chu Huaian's cronies at all, no matter how much he threatens or tempts them.
They all have an attitude of not changing their color even if the sky collapses in front of them, no matter what Chu Chengye says or does, it won't work. Chu Chengye has heard that Chu Huaian often talks to them privately, and none of them has a cold face.
With Chu Huaian in the court, those people seem to have the confidence, and they are determined to oppose Chu Chengye.
The late emperor was obsessed with the harem and ignored state affairs. There were not many useful people in the court. There were several people who had their hearts set on Chu Chengye before, but they turned against him after Chu Huaian returned to Beijing.
Everyone in the world knew that Chu Chengye's throne was instigated by a rebellion, and he forced the late emperor to death, which was a heinous act.
The throne came by name without right, and the words were not smooth, and everyone in the world could spit on it. Chu Chengye could shut up one person, but he could not shut up everyone in the world.
If they followed Chu Chengye, even if Chu Chengye sat on the throne longer, they would enjoy all the glory and wealth, but they helped Chu Chengye, an emperor who forced the emperor to abdicate and rebelled, and their descendants would inevitably be poked in the spine and scolded as the descendants of treacherous ministers.
How could they go down to see their ancestors, and they could not bear this insult.
It is better to follow Chu Huaian, who is brave and resourceful, and is the prince most valued by the previous emperor. The world should belong to Chu Huaian. If they help Chu Huaian, if they succeed, they can gain a good reputation and be praised for a long time in later generations.
Besides, Chu Huaian and Chu Chengye are now evenly matched, and it is hard to say who will win or lose.
