Chapter 257 Male Green Tea
The car window opened and Gu Jingchun's eyes met his.
"I thought about this for a long time last night. If I want to benefit His Royal Highness, the most urgent thing I have to do after returning to the palace is to dispel these rumors."
Ye Wenxi whispered.
Gu Jingchun nodded:
"But once the rumor starts, how can it be so easily dispelled?"
Ye Wenxi shook his head.
"It's not about clearing up the rumors in the palace."
"It's to clear up Emperor Rongcheng's opinion of the Empress.
Ultimately, these rumors are directed at the Empress."
“Although we don’t know what happened between Emperor Rongcheng and the Empress, we believe they came prepared. After this, they will definitely have a backup plan.
Our top priority now is to prepare for the worst.”
Gu Jingchun also understood that this matter was definitely not that simple, so he nodded in agreement.
"Okay, I will discuss this matter with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
After she finished speaking, she couldn't help but smile again.
"I saw your attitude towards His Royal Highness last night. I thought you had something against him, but I didn't expect you to care about him so much."
Ye Wenxi also smiled, and his eyes couldn’t help but glance in the direction of Shen Hechuan before continuing: “Your Highness, he is a good prince.
Such a good prince should not waste his time in the flattery and blackmail of the harem.
Although I am now a commoner, I also want to do my best to help."
As he spoke, he raised his eyes again and looked deeply at Gu Jingchun.
"Besides, if I help him, I'm actually helping you. I don't want my master to fall into danger after entering the palace."
Gu Jingchun had not forgotten that Ye Wenxi's original dream was to become an official, and he could not help but say:
"Wenxi, you've followed me for many years, but I don't want to delay you. Now is your chance. I'll ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to recommend you for an official position. How do you do that?"
Ye Wenxi looked up and saw the menacing look in Chen Hechuan's eyes.
"Your Highness, I'm afraid you're not willing to recommend me."
"How could that be? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a man who values talent and is not a stingy person. He will definitely not have any objection to you for this."
As he was speaking, he heard Shen Hechuan's sinister voice coming from the front.
"What are you talking about?"
When Ye Wenxi saw Chen Hechuan coming, he immediately saluted.
"Nothing, just a few casual words of conversation."
After hearing Ye Wenxi's words, Gu Jingchun also realized that this was not a good time to bring up the recommendation, so he nodded in agreement.
"right."
These words made Shen Hechuan's face darken a little.
As early as when Ye Wenxi came over, Shen Hechuan saw it and felt regretful in his heart.
He thought to himself, Ye Wenxi, this scheming bitch, actually took advantage of him going to the front to go over and talk to Gu Jingchun. How annoying.
Seeing the two of them talking back and forth and smiling at each other from time to time, Shen Hechuan became more and more restless.
They have been busy with the drought during this period of time, and he has no time to be alone with Gu Jingchun.
Therefore, it is not very clear what Gu Jingchun is thinking now.
He was already feeling a little uneasy, and now seeing Gu Jingchun still talking and laughing with Ye Wenxi, he naturally became even angrier. Without caring about anything else, he immediately rushed over.
However, looking at their expressions, he knew that they must be hiding some secret from him.
This made Shen Hechuan even angrier, but he had no reason to be angry.
Seeing a spacious open space ahead, he asked everyone to stop and rest.
After sitting in the carriage for a whole day, Gu Jingchun and Gu Jinxi felt sore in their backs and waists, so they immediately got out of the carriage to stretch their legs.
When Chen Hechuan saw Gu Jingchun's actions, he prepared to go over and have a good talk with her about Ye Wenxi, the pretentious hypocrite.
Unexpectedly, he had just taken a few steps when he heard the voices of two servants talking.
"Hey, did you see that? Our master was worried that Master Ye was drunk and feeling unwell, so he went to see him in person."
"Tell me, is it possible that this Mr. Ye is with our master?"
One of them spoke, causing Shen Hechuan to stop immediately.
"But, I see that our master seems to be more fond of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
Another person immediately said so, and Shen Hechuan's expression instantly became much better.
However, the next words made Shen Hechuan's expression completely change.
"That's true, but from what I heard from my master yesterday, it seems that the standards have been raised, with women being allowed to have three wives and four concubines.
Could it be that the master wants to take both His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Master Ye as his own?"
The other man was surprised.
"How...is this possible?"
"Why not?"
"If it were any other woman, this might be impossible, but our mistress is no ordinary woman. Her thoughts are beyond the reach of ordinary people."
"But, he is the Crown Prince after all. How could he agree?"
"I don't know whether His Royal Highness the Crown Prince agrees or not, but judging from Mr. Ye's expression, he will definitely agree."
"At that time, at worst, one person will stay in the palace and the other will stay outside. It all depends on Mr. Ye's temperament. He will definitely wait for his master obediently outside the palace."
When the man heard this, he remembered the look Ye Wenxi gave Gu Jingchun and nodded.
"That's really possible."
The two of them had already walked away as they talked, but Shen Hechuan slowly clenched his fingers.
"That's great."
No wonder he sleeps on the floor.
It turned out that Gu Jingchun actually went to take care of Ye Wenxi instead of taking care of him!
"very good."
It's really very good.
Chen Hechuan's teeth were chattering, and he immediately strode towards Gu Jingchun.
As soon as I walked over, I saw Ye Wenxi sitting next to Gu Jingchun. The two of them were leaning against each other, and I didn't know what they were talking about.
Seeing Chen Hechuan coming, Ye Wenxi immediately stood up, saluted Chen Hechuan, and then turned to look at Gu Jingchun.
"Jingchun, since the Crown Prince is here, I'll leave first and come back later."
Gu Jingchun nodded and gave Ye Wenxi some special instructions.
"There's no rush. You were drunk last night, and you must still be feeling dizzy. Go get some rest first."
Ye Wenxi nodded, smiled at Gu Jingchun, then turned and left.
But this scene deeply hurt Shen Hechuan's eyes.
He gritted his teeth and snorted coldly.
"It was a really good show."
Gu Jingchun was puzzled.
Shen Hechuan chuckled again.
"You know, Ye Wenxi beside you is the best at pretending and being hypocritical."
Upon hearing this, Gu Jingchun's expression suddenly turned cold, and he explained seriously, "No, he's not that kind of person. He's been with me for many years and has helped me a lot. Over the years, our relationship has become more than just master and servant."
"He is also devoted to me, and has no second thoughts."
After Gu Jingchun finished speaking, she remembered that Ye Wenxi had come to see her several times today, all because of Chen Hechuan, and she couldn't help but say:
"Not only that, he's devoted to you."
