Chapter 184 Warm sunshine is scattered in the courtyard of Xichang.
There is a wicker chair under a withered willow tree.
Chen He, dressed in a green shirt, is sitting in the wicker chair with his eyes closed and his long and clean fingers gently stroking his knees. of snow.
When Ji Wujing came closer, Chen He opened his eyes and said, "Senior brother."
"Get up and rebel with me."
The snow ball lying on Chen He's lap was awakened.
It stretched out and rubbed its head against Chen He's palm.
Chen He lowered his eyes to look at it, and held its face in his palms.
Xue Tuan tilted his head habitually, and rubbed Chen He's hand harder.
Chen He's eyes fell on Xuetuan, he smiled softly and said, "Brother, it's better to find someone else.
You know, I'm most afraid of trouble."
Ji Wujing suppressed the impatience in his heart and said angrily: "You like to rub cats and bask in the sun.
Why don't you go to the beach and listen to the waves and watch the tide?
How happy it is.
It's not too troublesome to stay in the West Factory."
"Senior Brother, what you said is wrong.
Although there are many things in the West Factory, if Junior Brother manages it properly at ordinary times, there will be people responsible for each matter, and I only need to check occasionally.
Whoever has a conflict with whom will not come forward.
The verdict is one, two, three, four.
Senior brother is not familiar with management.
If you are interested, junior brother can teach you some experience. " Snowball slowly climbed up along Chen He's wrinkle-free green shirt.
It put its little paws on Chen He's shoulders and rubbed its head against Chen He's chin.
Ji Wujing looked at it and said speechlessly: "Chen He, she is already dead, and Concubine Xue is dead.
She died cleanly and has nothing to do with this cat."
Chen He's fingers stroking Xue Tuan froze slightly for a moment, then continued to slowly stroke Xue Tuan's soft hair.
He said "hmm" and said, "I know."
But this is her last connection with this world.
Chen He lowered his eyes and stared at the snow ball.
There was always a gentle smile on his face, and the sadness had long since disappeared.
When he was fifteen, he accompanied her from the distant Beichuan, thousands of miles away from his hometown, to get married, and accompanied her into the palace.
Two years later, she passed away, leaving him alone in this foreign land for ten years in the blink of an eye.
The willow seedlings she sent have grown up, protected by the wind in March and sheltered from the sun in summer.
Even in the dead of winter, it can be with him.
He promised her that he would live well and seriously, and he would also help her protect the clan.
Ji Wujing took a step forward, squatted down lazily beside Chen He, looked at him levelly, and said in a rare serious tone: "Brother, I know you don't care who becomes the emperor, you just want to live in peace and contentment."
When you are the governor of the West Factory, you are in this courtyard, under this willow tree, with your cat.
But think about it, if my son becomes the emperor, won't your life be more stable?"
Chen He looked at Ji Wujing.
"Not only can you be the governor of the West Factory, but you can also take over the East Factory."
Ji Wujing tempted again, "Send all your money and soldiers to the Snow Clan to protect the Snow Clan's prosperity for hundreds of years."
Chen He looked at Ji Wujing for a long time, and finally said: "What do you want me to do, senior brother?
I don't think there is anything that Xichang can do but you can't do it yourself."
Ji Wujing twitched the corners of his lips and smiled: "Actually, it doesn't make any difference if I have you or not, but with you, it will be more perfect."
A trace of speechlessness finally appeared in Chen He's calm eyes.
He said: "I have agreed beforehand that I will not do anything if my life is in danger."

"Okay, okay, if the sky falls, senior brother will hold you up from the front."
When Ji Wujing and Chen He arrived at the banquet, it was the moment when Gu Jianli slowly walked out from behind the screen.
"Gu Jianli" Ji Pinglian's expression changed again and again.
She had been excited that her father had become a great hero, and she would have unlimited success in the future.
Her heart was always warm until Gu Jianli appeared, like a head of cold water pouring down on her, making her sober up a little.
Why did Gu Jianli appear here?
She shouldn't have been taken over by Batur.
It was different from what was expected, which made Ji Pinglian unhappy.
She looks generous, but is actually very petty.
Gu Jianli humiliated her in public at the last birthday party, and she has always held a grudge.
No matter how Ji Yan questioned him, no matter how many personal witnesses Ji Yan brought out, or the courtiers' hidden sharp words, Ji Lan always remained calm.
But when he saw Gu Jianli appear, he suddenly tightened his grip on the wine bottle in his hand.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and watched Gu Jianli approaching step by step.
It was not until he was close to the stage and side by side with Wen Jingshan that Ji Lan said leisurely: "Princess Shengyi also wants to get involved."
"It is true that His Majesty has tampered with the imperial edict."
Gu Jianli raised his head and looked directly at Ji Lan.
Ji Lan stared into Gu Jianli's eyes, and after a while, she suddenly chuckled.
I didn't expect that I would meet her under such circumstances today.
I don't know whether it was luck or misfortune.
He slowly turned the wine bottle, seeming to be in a trance.
Ji Yan looked at Wen Jingshan and then at Gu Jianli, feeling even more confused.
Why did Gu Jianli also arrive?
In fact, because he had no evidence that Ji Lan had tampered with the edict, he gave false evidence.
Anyway, there is so much real evidence ahead, so there is no harm in fishing in troubled waters.
Yes, Ji Wujing had sent Chang Ling to tell him that Chen He would come to testify on the day of the state banquet.
But Ji Yan was not at ease with Ji Wujing's actions, so he arrested the little eunuch who knew nothing and wanted the little eunuch to give perjury.
Sure enough, Chen He didn't show up.
He was about to bring the little eunuch here.
Why didn't Chen He come but Gu Jianli did?
Whether Wen Jingshan or Gu Jianli, their appearance clearly helped Ji Yan.
Ji Yan should be happy, but he felt a strange uneasiness in his heart.
"Princess Shengyi must not speak nonsense about today's situation."
King Linsi said.
Gu Jianli nodded gently to him, his voice soft but firm: "I was in the palace on the night of the late emperor's death.
I was also the last person to see the late emperor.
The fire was raging that day, and His Majesty and the fifth prince came quickly.
After learning that the late emperor had passed away, the two princes rushed to get the edict.
The person written in the edict was indeed His Highness.
The Fifth Highness wanted to send someone to invite His Majesty who had left the capital, but was shot and killed by His Majesty himself. ” There was an uproar at the table, the whispers gradually became louder, the discussion was endless, and it was noisy.
"My wife is so pretty."
Ji Wujing stood lazily in the corner with a hint of pride.
Chen He tilted his head and asked, "Senior brother asked me to come here to see my wife."
Ji Wujing ignored Chen He and looked at Gu Jianli from a distance.
Ji Lan looked at Gu Jianli and opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but she ended up smiling elegantly and gently.
In the past year, he had thought about killing Gu Jianli many times.

It would be better to kill all the people who knew about the death of the late emperor.
Gu Jianli, who knew the truth about him, should not be left alone.
He always persuaded himself that Gu Jingyuan still had value.
Gu Jingyuan's beloved daughter, if he killed Gu Jianli, he would definitely be counterattacked by Gu Jingyuan.
Is it really all because of Gu Jingyuan?
Not entirely.
Do you regret it?
Ji Lan leaned forward and slowly placed the wine bottle in his hand on the desk.
No, he doesn't regret it.
He has never regretted anything in his life.
I had nothing to begin with, but now that I have climbed up to this day, even if I lose everything again, I will not compensate.
With Ji Lan's silence, the atmosphere at the table changed.
Just because Ji Lan's silence at this time was too much like acquiescence.
"Your Majesty, what the Second Highness and Princess Shengyi said are true."
"Your Majesty designed to frame the former Crown Prince, killed him with the help of His Second Highness, blamed the Fourth Highness, tampered with the edict, shot and killed the Fifth Highness, and pursued and killed the Second Highness.
Is it true?"
"Your Majesty, does he have anything else to say?"
"I have the honor to give you enlightenment lessons when your highnesses were young and watch you brothers grow up.
What your highness has done really makes me feel chilled."
All of a sudden, the ministers attacked him.
Dou Hongyan broke out in sweat.
He hurriedly approached Ji Lan's ear and lowered his voice and said, "Your Majesty, you must not give up.
We still have 50,000 Yulin troops, the people of Dongchang, and the Wailiang Khan to help."
Ji Lan lifted her sleeves and poured herself a glass of wine slowly.
There was a slight smile on his face, looking calm and relieved.
What's the use of having the Royal Forest Army, the East Factory, and the outer coolant?
Today's situation is that all the courtiers are rebelling, heavy troops are out, old things are exposed and no one is popular anymore.
Important people, no one.
We need soldiers, but we don’t have any.
If you want people's hearts, let alone nothing.
Even if he uses the 50,000 imperial guards to fight to the death today, even if he wins temporary stability, the situation will eventually be over.
What's more, he has learned to be patient since he was a child and has no intention of living on the run again.
Unknowingly, the noise in the banquet stopped.
No one among the hundreds of people made a sound, and pairs of eyes looked at Ji Lan on the high platform.
Ji Lan calmly took a sip of the fine wine.
The sweet wine went into his throat.
He tasted the aroma of the wine and his eyes fell on Gu Jianli below.
He looked at Gu Jianli and said slowly: "Princess, I miss your aunt."
Gu Jianli's expression changed in an instant.
Ji Lan calmly glanced at the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty and said: "My second brother is a virtuous man, and I am willing to take the Zen throne.
To be honest, the edict for the Zen throne has already been written."
Ji Yan was startled, feeling unbelievable, and stared at Ji Lan's face with doubt, trying to see some clues on his face.
Ji Lan stood up, and following his small movements, all eyes followed him.
"Princess Shengyi, would you like to accompany me to get the edict for the Zen position?"
Ji Lan's proposal shocked everyone again.

Could it be some conspiracy?
Ji Lan smiled elegantly, "I have placed the edict and the jade seal in a secret place.
No one else can find it even if they dig three feet into the palace.
Princess Shengyi is willing to go with her to get the edict and the jade seal for the new emperor." " Gu Jianli's heart skipped a beat, he was filled with thoughts about his aunt The thought that his aunt had been captured by Ji Lan made Gu Jianli feel cold all over.
She couldn't, couldn't let her aunt suffer any more torture and pain.
"Okay, I'll go with Your Majesty."
Gu Jianli heard his own voice say.
No matter what Ji Lan had planned, she was bound to go through this.
Even if I lose my life, I still have to go through this.
Before Chen He had time to move, he felt a gust of wind pass by his side, and the sword on his waist disappeared.
Ji Wujing, expressionless, flew down from the high platform hiding in the corner, as fast as the wind.
In just a blink of an eye, his figure flew across the entire banquet table, swept up to the high platform, and with a flip of his wrist, his sword pierced Ji Lan's chest.
Blood gushed out, dyeing the sword red.
Even Dou Hongyan, who was protecting Ji Lan personally, didn't react.
Ji Wujing raised his eyes and looked at Ji Lan in front of him, showing disgust.
There's so much nonsense and it's so troublesome, let's just kill him.
Let my little Lili go with you.
Gu Jianli stared at this scene blankly, forgetting even his reaction. gd1806102:
