Chapter 136 You Think Too Simple
Xiao Chen really didn't break his promise, he really let Chen Jisheng be his housekeeper, he spent a sum of money to buy a small house in Fengyang City, he rarely came to live in it, so he let Chen Jisheng live in it By the way, here is responsible for the management.
It's not uncommon for eunuchs to buy houses outside. It's a common occurrence. By the way, which eunuch, the head of the twenty-four prisons, doesn't have one or two properties outside?
In particular, Gong Shouli bought more than a dozen properties in the best part of Fengyang City by grabbing them.
More than half of them were rented out, and the rest raised many beautiful wives and concubines. He, a eunuch, married so many beautiful women, it was really a crime to say the least!
Originally, Xiao Chen thought that the emperor would give him an order to let him go to Luomapo soon, but he didn't expect that since he raised his mouth that day, there was no further movement. It was not easy for him to ask, so he hesitated in his heart.
One day, I wandered out to chat with Chen Jisheng, and asked him what the emperor meant by this?
Chen Jisheng's body has healed after these days of raising his general, and he gradually recovered from the pain of losing his wife. His spirit has also improved a lot, his face is rosy, and he has obviously gained a lot of weight.
It's just that he can't stay idle at all. Although he has rich clothes and good food every day, and his quality of life is hundreds of times better than when he was the Zuodu censor, he is very depressed.
What is the difference between wasting time with nothing to do this day and doing food and waiting to die?
Sometimes I have a whim, if Li Wanjiang is willing to use himself again, then even if he is allowed to be a magistrate, no, it is not necessary to be a county magistrate, even if he is only a county magistrate or even a Dianshi, he will be ecstatic!
It's a pity that he is now a criminal, and he can't even be a postman!
It's really sad that my old man, who is talented in governing the country, is full of ambitions but can't show it!
Isn't it also hard?
So seeing Xiao Chen coming over, he didn't have a good face.
"What's the matter with you, old man?" Seeing Chen Jisheng's lawsuit, Xiao Chen expressed his relief. It seems that the old man is in a good state of mind, and everything is as usual.
"Oh... I'm suffocated!" Chen Jisheng sighed, "I heard that you and that Zhang Baiwan set up some kind of factory? Otherwise, you can just let me go over there and do something, and it would be boring to be an accountant there. Here I will give you a little eunuch to be your butler!"
By the way, what has Mr. Chen Jisheng forced us into?
"Are you kidding? I dare to let you go. Does Zhang Baiwan dare to take you? How big is his place, can accommodate your old man, a great god!" Xiao Chen couldn't help but laugh.
"Then what do you think I should do? Is it possible that I will die of old age here!" Chen Jisheng lost his temper.
"There is one thing that I haven't told you all this time, the main reason is that the matter is still undecided... The emperor seems to have intentionally sent me to Zhen Xigong to be the supervisor of the army..." Xiao Chen said.
"Oh? Is there such a thing?" Chen Jisheng raised his eyebrows.
"Don't get too excited. Even if I go, I won't take you with me. It's thousands of miles away, and the journey is difficult. Besides, the frontier is bitter and cold. Why are you so old?"
Xiao Chen already had calculations in his heart, if he was really sent to Luomapo, he would find another suitable place to place Chen Jisheng.
Because this trip may never come back, and various unpredictable changes may occur, including rebellion and defection, it is not appropriate to take Chen Jisheng with him.
Chen Jisheng cared about his reputation very much, most likely he would not follow him to rebel against Da Zhou, so Xiao Chen didn't tell Chen Jisheng his real identity now.
It's not because I'm afraid of scaring him, but because I'm afraid of embarrassing the old man.
"Well, the emperor said that he would send you to Luomapo?" Chen Jisheng asked.
"That's not true, but I think that's what he meant. It's not suitable for me to go to other places. In addition, I have talked with Danqiu...the queen, and she also thinks that it is most suitable for me to go. Hehe, you old man I also know that the emperor doesn't seem to want me to stay in the palace anymore." Xiao Chen said.
"Xiao Chen, you think things are too simple, and you also think too simple the emperor. You are now the most capable eunuch in the palace. According to common sense, he should reuse you and will never send you out. Yes, that is to want...you to die!" Chen Jisheng said in a deep voice.
"Damn it, can't you?" Xiao Chen was taken aback when he heard this.
"Since ancient times, the most taboo of being an emperor is the master of high merit. Your contribution is too great. The emperor can't seal you, so he can only kill you. Last time you told me that he gave you suicide, it was a sign." Chen Jisheng sighed.
"My little master, I have given him so much credit, but he wants to kill me, it's too much!" Xiao Chen expressed his anger.
"Hehe, what are you kid? He even killed his own son." Chen Jisheng sneered.
"Ah? How do you know that he was responsible for the assassination of the crown prince?" Xiao Chenke never told Chen Jisheng the truth of the matter, how did the old man know?
"Who else could there be besides him? After what happened last time, our Fengyang City was cleaned inside and out. Where would there be any remaining forces of the Profound Sky Society? Even if there are a few fish that escaped the net." , but he can’t do such a big thing! Besides, why would Tianxuan kill such a useless prince? Xiao Xinghan is not stupid.” Chen Jisheng said.
"Fuck, your old man is really clever! Then I won't hide it from you, I also think that Hao Fei was appointed by the emperor..." Xiao Chen felt that he would look at this old man with admiration.
"In fact, things are not that complicated. As long as you understand the truth, everything will be clear to you. The emperor has long been dissatisfied with the prince. Otherwise, if I impeach the prince, can the emperor not kill me? He left me In fact, his fate has already expressed his own thoughts."
"The emperor's favorite is Fengyang King. Fengyang King is indeed a great talent, but he is a concubine, and there is a prince on top, so it is difficult to take the throne. If he wants to take the throne, the emperor must kill the prince. , it won’t work if you scrap it!”
"I heard that this time King Fengyang won a complete victory in suppressing the rebellion in central Sichuan, and he is about to return in triumph. The emperor ordered the Ministry of Rituals to prepare for the reception. It is said that the ceremony is quite grand, so I think the emperor may use this matter to strike while the iron is hot. King Fengyang supports the superior..."
When Chen Jisheng talked about state affairs, he was in high spirits.
"Old man, if, I mean Ruo Ang, if you were still the censor of Zuodu, would you support King Fengyang as the crown prince?" Xiao Chen asked.
"No." Chen Jisheng shook his head.
"Why? Didn't you impeach the prince?" Xiao Chen was stunned.
"The crown prince can't do it, and neither can the king of Fengyang. Although he is very talented and has a paternal style, he can only lead troops to fight. When it comes to governing the country, he may not be able to do it. In addition, his influence in the army is great, but in the civil service However, his prestige is not high, and many people think that he is just a brave husband, and he is still a concubine..."
Xiao Chen really hadn't thought about what Chen Jisheng said.
"The crown prince can't do it, neither can Fengyang King. Do you want Li Shi, a disabled person, to be the emperor?" Xiao Chen said.
"Well, among the three sons of the emperor, only Jiangdong King Li Shi has the ability to govern the country!" Chen Jisheng said.
"But it seems that there is no precedent for a disabled person to be an emperor." Xiao Chen felt that Li Shi was the most unlikely.
It is said that only Sun Bin is the most powerful person in a wheelchair in history. No matter how good Sun Bin is, he can't be the emperor.
