A Path of Business: My Loyal and Lovely Husband - C279

Ji Changhuai’s eyes were filled with fear, he was shocked, and only after a long while did he regain his senses.

Ji Jingzhi quickly regained his composure, and fell into deep thought. Ji Jingzhi thought and thought about his response.

This Wei Family already had a huge influence in the imperial court, and many people from the Wei Family already held high positions in the imperial court, holding important authority. If they were to be even more vigilant and suppressed him, there was no guarantee that one day, this Wei Family person would straddle both Ji Changhuai and Ji Jingzhi.

Now, since Ji Jingzhi knew the identity of the black clothed man and also knew of the Wei Family’s conspiracy, how could he not be wary of him?

He knew that the man in black was Shen Che’s man, so the news that arrived should be true. This Wei Family really could do something like move towards a vacant seat.

Ji Jingzhi sized up the man dressed in night clothes in front of him and remained silent for a while. Then, he said, “Tell me once you’re back, that we already know about it. Thank you, Master Shen, for your grace.”

Hearing his words, the man nodded his head and said in a neither humble nor haughty manner: “Thank you prince, your subordinate will definitely bring this up.”

With that, the man left without a sound. His footsteps were light and did not make any sound. It was as if he had never been here before.

Seeing that, Ji Jingzhi raised his eyebrows, and thought that Shen Che had some good people.

Ji Changhuai stayed silent for a while, and said:

“We cannot let the Xu and Wei families take advantage of us for free. Originally, these two seats were occupied by our people. Right now, he absolutely couldn’t let them take advantage of him either. The two families are already very powerful. If a few more people were to be installed in the imperial court, wouldn’t they be climbing on top of us? We have to suppress two families. ”

Ji Changhuai had always wanted to suppress the attitude of the two families. That’s right, these two powers were overflowing with power, they already had the momentum of surpassing him, a dignified Regent, and the situation was grim, not to be underestimated.

When Ji Jingzhi heard this, he smiled without saying a word. He only poured two cups of tea and let Ji Changhuai drink with him.

After a while, Ji Jingzhi suddenly looked out of the window. Dense darkness shrouded the area. What was brought about was pitch black, and nothing could be seen.

However, the meticulous Ji Jingzhi still saw a black shadow in the hazy night, and that shadow was in the shape of a human. Ji Jingzhi rolled his eyes, thinking about it, he knew who was outside the window.

Ji Jingzhi laughed but did not say a word, and looked at Ji Changhuai. Judging from his expression, he didn’t seem to know that there was someone outside the window.

Ji Changhuai frowned slightly at being stared at, and asked doubtfully: “Stop looking at me, tell me what you’re thinking?”

Ji Jingzhi laughed involuntarily. He did not tell Ji Changhuai that there was someone outside the window, because he wanted to know when that person would come in.

“I don’t think so. Firstly, Chang Feng and the city governor were removed by the emperor, so he should have guessed who those two people were. Since that’s the case, why do we need to fight for these two seats?” Wouldn’t that mean the Emperor would suspect us and should be on his guard against us? ”

Ji Jingzhi shook his head. His father had been a little muddled recently, and couldn’t even analyze the situation properly. Ji Jingzhi looked at the few strands of white hair on Ji Changhuai’s head and sighed.

“Jingzhi is right. But are we just going to let it go like this? So, we should just let the two families get away with this for nothing? ”

Ji Changhuai was a little unwilling in his heart, as he spoke with a gloomy expression. Alas, the matter of the court recently seemed to be of no benefit to the father and son duo.

“Of course not, we still have to fight for this official position. Only, this justice court is only responsible for managing the positions of the members of the royal family, it is not very useful for the development of our forces, we can let the people from the Wei Family go up there. After all, even though the power of the Wei Family was strong and its development was fast, in the short term, it was not something to be afraid of. However, we should still fight for the position of the city governor. ”

Ji Jingzhi slowly came over and analyzed the pros and cons of this event. Along the way, he even talked about it with the Bureau of Generals. After Ji Changhuai heard these words, he benefited greatly and felt that these words were reasonable.

Ji Changhuai nodded, and said: “You are right, but it is I who did not consider everything. Jingzhi, from now on, I will be relying on you. ”

Ji Jingzhi laughed and looked out the window.

“Come in, Master Shen.”

The moment the words left his mouth, the figure outside the window wavered visibly.

Ji Changhuai opened his eyes wide, looked at Ji Jingzhi, and said: “What are you fooling around for? What nonsense are you spouting? How could the Master Shen be here? ”

Ji Jingzhi did not say anything, he only looked out of the window.

At this moment, Ji Changhuai had a face full of surprise. He saw that Shen Che had actually appeared in front of them soundlessly, just like the black clothed man just now. Shen Che, when did he appear? He couldn’t have been outside the door all along, right?

The corner of Shen Che’s mouth raised slightly, revealing a strange smile. He smiled and said to Ji Changhuai and Ji Jingzhi: “It’s fine, don’t worry.

Ji Jingzhi furrowed his brows, and unconsciously clenched his hands. It seemed that this Shen Che had still heard everything he had said to Ji Changhuai without saying a single word. Why didn’t Shen Che come in with his subordinates just now and insist on eavesdropping? This kind of behavior was truly not pleasing.

Thinking about that, Ji Jingzhi’s mind involuntarily recalled the time when he and his father were being impeached in the morning assembly. At that time, the first official to be impeached seemed to be Shen Che’s man, and the interactions between Shen Che and the official was seen by Ji Jingzhi.

He felt that this Shen Che was definitely not as simple as he looked on the surface. He was definitely a person with a lot of shrewdness.

The corner of Ji Jingzhi’s mouth raised, revealing a fake smile, and said: “Master Shen, please take a seat. This room is much warmer than the outside, it’s more comfortable.”

When Shen Che heard this, he coughed to ease the awkwardness.

After thinking about it again and again, Shen Che voiced out his thoughts, “Regent, prince, I feel that Master Nie is the best candidate for the position of governor of the city gates. I wonder what you two think of him? ”

Just as Ji Changhuai wanted to agree, he was rejected by him.

Ji Jingzhi said without hesitation, “No, absolutely not. Although this person has the Seven Apertures Mystical Heart, he is an indecisive person and cannot be this official.”

After Shen Che heard this, his mouth opened, and was about to refute a few words.

Ji Jingzhi waved his hands, and said politely: “Master Shen, thank you for your help. It’s just that, this person is not really suitable. Regent and I will definitely select a suitable candidate, just relax. ”

The smile on Shen Che’s face stiffened, he pursed his lips, not knowing what else to say.

Ji Jingzhi did not say anything as he quietly drank his tea. Ji Changhuai was the same, the air suddenly became quiet.

Seeing that, Shen Che knew that he should leave, and bid farewell to Ji Jingzhi and Ji Changhuai.

“Regent, prince, if there is nothing else, I will take my leave first.”

With that, Shen Che left.

Ji Jingzhi reminded Ji Changhuai, “This Shen Che is not as simple as he looks. I have to be wary of Shen Che. I feel that Shen Che is not that easy to control, he’s just a poisonous snake. ”

After Ji Changhuai heard this, he fell into deep thought.
