Chapter 96: Even Powerful Officials Are Shy

Yan Qing said indifferently: "You do things without considering the consequences?"

Wen Jin did not say anything. He knew what the consequences would be if he killed Ji Chengyin. Not to mention whether there would be disaster if he alerted the royal family of Chu, at least it would be impossible to leave smoothly tomorrow.

But he just couldn't control himself.

Ji Chengyin deserved to die.

"Your Excellency, the powerful minister who is in charge of the situation, can you use your brain in the future?" Yan Qing said in an unhappy tone, "Do you have to let me beat you?"

Wen Jin knelt forward two steps, his handsome face slightly raised: "Your Highness, please teach me a lesson."

Yan Qing paused, his eyes were subtle for a moment.

What else could she say?

I have never seen anyone actively put his face close to her for her to beat. With such a docile attitude, how could he be a ruthless person who would kill people at the slightest disagreement?

He was not even afraid of being beaten, so verbal teaching had no effect on him at all.

Yan Qing was silent for a moment: "I remember that powerful officials should be people who calculate people's hearts and play power games. Do you want to change your career and become a killer?"

Wen Jin thought for a while: "Can I stay with His Highness as a killer?"

"No."

Wen Jin lowered his eyebrows and replied: "Then I don't want to be a killer."

"Don't want to be a killer, thinking about killing people all the time?" Yan Qing kicked him, and his tone was rarely a little angry, "Can't you use your brain and make him live a life worse than death? Do you have to kill him?"

Wen Jin felt the force of this kick, and listened to her seemingly unhappy but no longer cold reprimand, and a different taste rose in his heart.

The attitude of His Highness tonight seems to be different.

There is no mockery, no alienation, as if he has returned to the way he was in Suzaku City. Although he always teaches him harshly, every sentence is teaching him the truth and rules.

In addition, His Highness took the initiative to buy him clothes tonight.

Wen Jin's heart is warm, and a glimmer of hope arises in his heart.

"I don't want to talk to you anymore." Yan Qing leaned against the carriage and closed his eyes slightly. "Just kneel down like this and reflect on yourself."

Wen Jin hummed, calmed down, and knelt down straight.

As for reflection.

He still felt that Ji Chengyin deserved to die, but His Highness poisoned him... Well, although it was not a fatal poison, it was enough to teach him a lesson.

It is indeed not good to kill people in Chu, and it is even worse to kill people in front of His Highness.

Wen Jin thought that he should wait until he left Chu to send a master over and make Ji Chengyin disappear from this world quietly.

But Ji Weiyu should not let him go...A dignified Phoenix King, even a nanny dared to break into his mansion, which shows how useless he is.

Wen Jin knelt quietly and began to calculate the date of Ji Chengyin's death in his heart.

The carriage returned all the way to the Phoenix King's Mansion.

Wen Jin and Yan Qing got off the car and saw a man in a black robe with a stern face standing outside the gate. There were guards outside the Phoenix King's Mansion, and the defense was obviously strengthened.

"Divine Doctor Yan." Ji Weiyu walked out of the front yard, automatically ignoring Wen Jin who was following Yan Qing. "Just now, I went to the palace to see my father. My father agreed to cancel the unreasonable request of the seventh brother, and in order to ensure the personal safety of Divine Doctor Yan, he ordered the fourth brother to stay on duty in the Fengwang Mansion with the Imperial Guards. No one can hurt Divine Doctor Yan."

Ji Chenghao nodded slightly: "Miss Yan."

Yan Qing said indifferently: "Thank you for your hard work."

This was the first time Yan Qing met Ji Chenghao. Ji Weiyu said that he was suitable to be an emperor. In fact, in Yan Qing's opinion, Ji Chenghao was more suitable to be a general.

However, it is not impossible for a general who is good at both civil and military affairs to be an emperor. People who have been on the battlefield understand the suffering of the people, the difficulties of the soldiers at the border, and the importance of the army to defend the country.

As long as an emperor has courage and can treat soldiers and people well, he will not be too bad.

Yan Qing stepped into the gate, and Wen Jin followed her quietly, ignoring Ji Chenghao's inquiring eyes on him.

Outside the palace gate, Ji Chenghao frowned and stared at Wen Jin's figure: "Sixteenth brother, who is this man? A friend of Doctor Yan?"

When mentioning Wen Jin, Ji Weiyu's expression was not very good: "Servant."

Servant?

Ji Chenghao was suspicious. Is there such a servant with outstanding appearance and excellent temperament?

Some people would believe that he was a noble son of a famous family or a royal relative.

But Ji Weiyu didn't say it, and he was not interested in asking more.

"Thank you for your hard work tonight, Fourth Brother." Before Ji Weiyu turned around and left, he still said something extra, "If I propose to make Fourth Brother the heir in front of my father, does Fourth Brother have any ideas?"

Ji Chenghao was stunned.

After saying this, Ji Weiyu turned around and left. Obviously, she didn't intend to listen to his answer, but just reminded him in advance so that he would have a bottom line in his heart.

The emperor is now in his prime, and he has just seized power from the queen mother. He must first rectify the government and stabilize the throne. At this time, the fourth prince is the emperor's most solid backing, which will make the emperor feel at ease and secure.

As for the fight for the crown prince, Ji Weiyu thought coldly, Ji Chengyin thought that if the prince lost power, he, the queen's legitimate son, would have a chance?

But he didn't know that the Chu Kingdom worshipped the son of God. Whoever the son of God wanted to be the emperor could become the next emperor.

After entering the yard, Ji Weiyu originally wanted to see Yan Qing, but he felt sad when he thought that he would leave tomorrow morning.

But now, His Highness should rest.

Ji Weiyu stood in the wide yard, looking at the bright lights in the hall, and felt a wave of melancholy in his heart.

In the warm room, Yan Qing was applying medicine to Wen Jin. The gentle and jade-like powerful minister was lying on the bed, as obedient as a child, and his handsome and unparalleled face was visibly flushed.

After all, the wound was hidden, and the gentle and calm minister couldn't help but feel hot on his cheeks.

Yan Qing glanced at him and said in a light tone: "Don't lie on the edge of my bed tonight, otherwise you will be in trouble."

Wen Jin agreed obediently.

However, when Yan Qing got up the next morning, she saw a figure curled up by the bed again, and he looked so soundly asleep that people couldn't bear to wake him up.

She got up and sat on the head of the bed, just looking at him.

What method can be used to correct his problem?

Yan Qing didn't think for long, and Wen Jin woke up.

When she looked up and saw Yan Qing, Wen Jin's thoughts froze for a moment, then she pursed her lips gently, stepped back and lowered her eyes: "Hello, Your Highness."

"Did you sleep well?"

Wen Jin nodded gently: "Yeah."

In the three years in the imperial city, I have never slept so well.

Yan Qing thought: "Should I build a nest for you next to the bed?"

Wen Jin paused: "Build a nest?"
