Chapter 33: It's not that there is no way out, there is also a dead end
After hearing what Cheng Jin said, Cheng Sheng lowered his head in shame.
He didn't expect that Miss Duan Yan, who looked so gentle, would be like this.
Of course, Cheng Jin didn't know that Cheng Sheng began to feel nostalgic after hearing his words. He just thought about how to deal with himself when he returned to the palace after living in such a peaceful place like Cheng Mansion for a long time.
He still had to go back. He wanted to stay for a few more days, but now Chu Chengye was here, and Cheng Jin had to leave.
Although Cheng Sheng was fooled by Cheng Jin's words, he was still worried about this matter in his heart, so he couldn't help but kneel in front of Chu Chengye and told him before he and Cheng Jin went back to the palace.
Chu Chengye was also puzzled to see Cheng Sheng suddenly kneeling in front of him, and then he heard Cheng Sheng speak.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. Is your promise to reward me in the Zhou Mansion still valid?"
Chu Chengye nodded slightly, "Of course, my words are as good as gold."
"Then please give the reward to your Majesty. Your Majesty is my sister and has been raised in the mansion since she was a child. Please forgive me if I don't understand the rules of the palace."
[Brother! Brother! Brother!]
Cheng Jin's three roars in her heart made Chu Chengye and Cheng Sheng, who were present, look at Cheng Jin at the same time.
Chu Chengye tilted his head to look at Cheng Jin, and saw Cheng Jin, who was lowering her head, twisting her fingers.
[If I had known you were so good to me, I would have sworn to others next time that I would not tell others about it and it would rebound on my brother.]
[I will never tell anyone again.]
Cheng Sheng: "..."
It seems that his feelings are misplaced.
Chu Chengye couldn't help but curl his lips and looked at Cheng Sheng, "I know."
[I will never use my brother's inability to find a wife as a bargaining chip for my oath again. ]
Cheng Jin was still lowering his head to reflect on himself.
Chu Chengye didn't know why Cheng Sheng's expression suddenly changed.
"Your Majesty, I regret it."
"Then give the reward to me."
Cheng Jin: "?!"
Cheng Jin raised her head suddenly after hearing Cheng Sheng's words, and saw Cheng Sheng's not-so-good expression. She pulled Cheng Sheng's sleeve, "Why don't you give it to me again?"
Cheng Sheng let out a sigh from his chest, "I don't want to give it to you."
"You are so stingy." Cheng Jin scolded.
Cheng Sheng took advantage of Chu Chengye's inattention and shot Cheng Jin in the head.
"Let you do bad things."
After saying goodbye to Cheng Yishou and Zhao Shulan, Cheng Jin took Cuizhu and Ziying back to the mansion with Chu Chengye.
Cheng Jin got on the carriage behind Chu Chengye.
After getting into the carriage, Cheng Jin leaned on Cuizhu and Ziying.
"I'm so tired. It's too tiring to be with the emperor."
Cheng Jin was indeed tired, but not only because of Chu Chengye, but also because Cheng Yishou returned home safely, Zhou Quan died, and so on, which made her feel exhausted. She finally had a chance to relax for a while.
Ziying sat up straight and let Cheng Jin lean more comfortably. "Your Majesty, go to sleep."
Cuizhu pinched Cheng Jin's arms and legs on the other side of Cheng Jin. "Yes, I will call you Your Majesty when we get to the palace."
Cheng Jin closed her eyes and nodded. Just when she wanted to close her eyes and take a nap, she heard someone talking next to the carriage.
"Your Majesty, I have something to say."
It was Wei An.
Cheng Jin asked Cuizhu to open the curtain of the carriage.
Wei An saluted Cheng Jin, "Your Majesty, the Emperor has ordered you to go to the carriage in front."
Cheng Jin was about to refuse when she saw Chu Chengye got off the carriage in front and stood in front of Cheng Jin's carriage.
"No need, I came here in this carriage, I'll take the one behind."
Cheng Jin couldn't hold back her face.
[Tyrant, how old are you this year? You came here in this carriage, why don't you say that you were still breathing on this land when you came? ]
[I think you really can't live for a second without looking for trouble. ]
[Fortunately, I am wearing ancient words, not illusions. The resentment around me can feed ten evil sword fairies. By then, I'm afraid that even ten Jingtians will come and can't suppress it.
Chu Chengye listened to Cheng Jin's inner voice, and the veins on his forehead were throbbing with anger.
Was it his fault after all? Although not many people knew about
his leaving the palace this time, if he was discovered by someone with ulterior motives and kidnapped on the way back to the palace, there were so many ambitious people in the court, so this was inevitable. He
left the palace quietly without bringing many people with him. If someone tried to assassinate him, Chu Chengye would not be afraid of anything, as those good-for-nothings could not get close to him.
But Cheng Jin was different. She was a weak woman, and she brought two palace maids with her. If she encountered such a dangerous situation, she might not be able to escape.
Chu Chengye then thought of letting Cheng Jin sit with him, so that he could protect her in case of an accident.
She had always been afraid of death and pain, and protecting her would also help him listen less to the complaints in her heart.
Who knew Cheng Jin actually cursed him like this in her heart, and Chu Chengye could no longer hide the anger on his face.
Cheng Jin had no idea why Chu Chengye was angry again, and just thought that he was looking for her again, so she forced a smile, "Since the emperor likes this carriage, then I will change to another one."
Cheng Jin gritted her teeth and let Cuizhu and Ziying get off first. When Cheng Jin was about to get off, she saw Chu Chengye got on the carriage with his long legs.
He sat sideways, with his legs slightly curled up, and the carriage seemed very crowded.
Cheng Jin was confused.
[You won't live for more than a minute, right? What's the harm in waiting for me to get off first? 】
After Chu Chengye got on the carriage, he closed his eyes, clasped his hands in front of his chest, and casually crossed his legs, blocking the space in the carriage to the full extent, pretending not to see Cheng Jin's intention to get off.
Cheng Jin was cornered by Chu Chengye and wanted to stand on top of the carriage.
But the more Cheng Jin tried to hide, the more Chu Chengye chased her, leaning forward slightly to block Cheng Jin in a corner.
Cheng Jin went crazy looking at Chu Chengye's robbery look:
[It's not that I have no way out, I have a dead end.]
Cheng Jin coughed twice, "Your Majesty, since you like this carriage, please make way for me and let me get off."
Chu Chengye didn't even blink, and said lazily: "I have given you time, it's you who don't want to get off."
"Since you don't want to get off, just sit here."
Cheng Jin laughed dryly, "How can I do that? I'm afraid of disturbing the emperor's rest, so let me get off."
[Blind, good blind spot.]
[I didn't expect that I could meet fish on land.]
[Which eye of yours saw that I didn't want to get off?]
Chu Chengye stared at Cheng Jin with his eyes, "If you want to get off, get off."
Chu Chengye said so, but he didn't move at all, and even showed a playful look on his face.
Cheng Jin had no way to get off.
Cheng Jin: "..."
[Do you believe I will step on you if I push you too far?]
Chu Chengye didn't believe it, and of course Cheng Jin didn't dare to do it either.
Chu Chengye waved his hand outside the carriage, and Wei An immediately understood what he meant and asked the coachman to go.
The road was bumpy, and Cheng Jin was forced into a corner of the carriage by Chu Chengye.
Cheng Jin was unhappy.
Very unhappy.
Looking at Chu Chengye who was sleeping quietly with his eyes closed, Cheng Jin could not make him feel comfortable.
