Chapter 297: Frightened away
Seeing Xue Qin's figure disappearing into the darkness without even turning his head once in the process, Chi Xinian couldn't help curling his lips and turned back to look at Yan Chujing: "Your Majesty, this bad old man can't stand up to me and scared me away."
"Are you sure he can't defeat you, rather than defeat you?" Yan Chujing held his chin in one hand and leaned on the desk with a faint smile.
Although he was angry just now, he could still hear and see clearly the debate between Chi Xinian and Xue Qin.
Even because he was not involved, he, as a bystander, understood more things from the changes in Xue Qin's expression.
For example, when he reprimanded Chi Xinian for being a short-sighted woman in the palace, his eyes were filled with real disdain. He was both irritating her and really looking down on her.
Moreover, this disdain intensified when Chi Xinian mentioned that he had been a generalissimo.
This shows that he not only looked down upon the gender of Chi Xinian's woman, but also looked down upon Chi Xinian's status as a military commander.
But when facing such a person whom he looked down on everywhere, he showed a hint of fear. Especially when Chi Xinian stepped forward and looked down at him coldly, his body swayed subconsciously.
In the end, he didn't even bother to argue, he casually said a few words of justice and left...
How could this old fox give up so easily if he didn't achieve his goal? According to him, this man was just afraid that Chi Xinian would make a quarrel, so he showed the arrogance of a military general and rushed to beat him regardless.
Thinking of this, Yan Chujing couldn't help covering his lips with his sleeves and laughed softly: "I didn't expect that the old fox who is usually very difficult to deal with would be scared away by your fist today."
"Why is it a fist? I didn't make gestures at him." Chi Xinian frowned, dissatisfied with Yan Chujing's gloating and teasing, "I was just angry that he was talking too loudly, so my voice was a little louder. I had prepared a lot of words, but I didn't even have time to talk to him.
How can I beat him when I'm arguing?"
"Then if you can't argue, why don't you beat him up?" Yan Chujing's smile became even brighter, and his eyes curved into a beautiful crescent shape.
"Of course not! I never thought about hitting him!" Chi Xinian stepped forward and slapped the table, as if intending to remind Yan Chujing not to talk nonsense.
But Yan Chujing was not afraid of her at all. Even though she had slapped the table on him, he still maintained his original point of view: "You haven't thought about it, but he can think so. I can clearly see from the side that he is just afraid of you getting close."
.
"Don't forget, you have beaten someone before in Fengtian Temple. There is a precedent, so it is not surprising that he is afraid."
"If you want to say that..." Chi Xinian hesitated after hearing Yan Chujing mention his past beatings.
She was still young at that time and was very impulsive in speaking and doing things.
And because of her identity as a woman, she received a lot of looks and ridicule in her official career, so she was especially concerned about others making comments about her gender.
A venomous civil servant actually ridiculed her in front of hundreds of officials that she should read more about women's virtues. How could she bear this?!
As soon as her mind became hot, she went up and punched the man, bending the bridge of his nose...
Later, Yan Chujing suppressed the matter.
At that time, his foundation was not yet solid. He defied all opinions and continued to appoint her, a woman who openly beat people in Fengtian Temple, to help her withstand the pressure.
Of course, she didn't disappoint him, and tried her best to help him support this country...
Thinking of Yan Chujing's good past, and recalling his impulsiveness when he was young, Chi Xinian couldn't help but restrain his temper: "Well, let's just assume that he was scared away by my fist..."
