All officials were surprised.
Based on their understanding of Zhao Chen, Zhao Chen should never give up like this.
Shouldn’t Zhao Chen rob Wu Xi back in front of the emperor?
But now, Zhao Chen actually left directly?
Very strange!
Wu Qi turned around and looked at Zhao Chen's departure back, with a deep reluctance mixed in his eyes.
"Queen, let's go with me." Gaochang King Qu Wentai said to Wu Xi with a smile.
He didn't dare to hold Wu Qi's little hand anymore.
Zhao Chen was just now, but he really scared Qu Wentai.
But as long as you leave Chang'an, the beauty in front of you is easy to get?
Wu Xi ignored Qu Wentai and turned around and walked towards the carriage.
"Xiao Wu, Xiao Zi Zhao please let me follow you to Gaochang Country for two years."
"Get into the car." Old Huang looked at Wu Xi and said with a smile.
Wu Qi was stunned for a moment and looked back at Zhao Chen, but he could no longer find Zhao Chen's trace.
On the Chang'an city wall, Li Ruoshuang led Xiao Ping'an and stood here watching the convoy gradually drift away.
"Mom, Aunt Xiao Wu went out to play, why didn't you take me with me?"
"Does Xiao Wu dislike Ping'an?" Xiao Ping'an pointed to the car in front and asked Li Ruoshuang.
Li Ruoshuang didn't say anything, and she had so much hope at this moment that Wu Yu just went out to play.
Will go home soon!
...
When Zhao Chen returned to Zhao's mansion, he saw that Li Jing and Hong Funu were already waiting here.
"Zhao Chen, are you... okay?" Hong Funu hesitated a little.
She also knew that Wu Qi's departure would have a great blow to Zhao Chen.
But many things are not something Zhao Chen can control.
The emperor supported Zhao Chen before, so Zhao Chen could only speak out in the court.
But once the emperor makes his own decision, everything before it will be overturned in an instant.
"It's pretty good." Zhao Chen smiled and sat down in the yard.
I seemed to remember the voice of Wu Zi's past confrontation with him again.
"Zhao Chen, what do you plan to do in the future?" Li Jing asked.
Zhao Chen didn't see any reaction.
Li Jing couldn't help but look worried.
"Zhao Chen." Hongfu Nu patted Zhao Chen gently.
"Mother-in-law." Zhao Chen came to his senses and looked at Hongfu Nu.
"Ask you what your plans are in the future?" Hongfu girl repeated the question with Zhao Chen again.
"Plan?" Zhao Chen smiled.
If he was only himself, he could force the emperor to take back the order today.
But there are too many involvements around him now.
Zhao Chen could not have made any effort to make the best of Wu Zi alone.
But after today...
"What happened today made me understand that only by taking power in my own hands is the safest."
"Otherwise, today's things will happen again in the future!" Zhao Chen's voice was plain, but Li Jing and Hong Fu Nu both saw Zhao Chen's determination.
"You mean..." Li Jing was still not sure about Zhao Chen's next plan.
"Enter the court! Become an official!" Zhao Chen said.
...
Zhao Chen always thought that he had been helping the emperor solve the problem.
In some matters that do not involve important matters, the emperor will help him speak.
But after the incident of Wu Xi, Zhao Chen understood it very clearly.
The emperor is the emperor after all.
Usually, he may be kind to himself, but when it comes to a critical moment, he will still choose to give up on himself.
Wu Xi was just a woman, but she was married to Gaochang because she involved him and Li Zhi.
If Wu Xi had changed his identity, how could such a disaster fall on him?
If he had enough strength in the court, how could the emperor make such a decision without hesitation?
Li Jing left, and Zhao Chen immediately left the mansion.
It has been a long time since Changsun Wuji asked him to plead with the emperor and hoped to return to the court.
Before, Zhao Chen did not forget about this matter, but Zhao Chen felt that Changsun Wuji's presence in the court would have a great impact on the future.
But now, Zhao Chen felt that if Changsun Wuji could return to the court, it might be an opportunity for him.
The Changsun Mansion was north of the West City. After walking for half an hour, Zhao Chen came to the Duke of Zhao's Mansion.
Although the emperor dismissed Changsun Wuji's official position, his title was still there.
Changsun Wuji returned to Chang'an and lived there.
Changsun Chong had just returned from outside the city when he saw Zhao Chen coming to his house.
"Sir." Changsun Chong bowed to Zhao Chen.
He respects Zhao Chen, but at this moment he feels a little sympathetic to Zhao Chen.
No one would have thought that the emperor would treat Zhao Chen like this!
He knew that Zhao Chen was extremely opposed to marrying the Tang women to other countries, but the emperor has not only done so.
He even put the martial arts beside Zhao Chen...
This almost happened in one day, Zhao Chen was beaten with a bruised nose and a swelling face.
"Is Duke Zhao in the mansion?" Zhao Chen nodded and asked Changsun Chong.
"Here, the student leads the teacher in." Changsun nodded and reached out to invite Zhao Chen in.
Changsun Wuji was very happy when he saw Zhao Chen coming.
He knew what happened today and understood what Zhao Chen meant to come to find him.
"King of Han, long time no see." Changsun Wuji said with a smile.
Changsun Chong stood aside and did not leave.
"I can help what Duke Zhao told me before."
"Duke Zhao felt that what is the position of Minister of Personnel?" Zhao Chen did not want to greet Changsun Wuji more, but asked straight to the point.
"Secretary of the Ministry of Personnel?"
"The Minister of Personnel is now my uncle Gao Shilian, right?" After the emperor returned from the front line, he made adjustments to the Minister of the Six Ministers.
The Minister of Personnel is now Gao Shilian.
Changsun Wuji felt that if he became the Minister of Personnel, wouldn’t he have robbed his uncle’s position?
It wouldn't sound nice to spread this way.
"Old Gao was not interested in the officialdom. I would give Mr Gao a good place to go. Duke Zhao only needed to wait for news at home." Zhao Chen and Changsun Wuji said.
Changsun Wuji nodded and looked at Zhao Chen again.
He knew that Zhao Chen would definitely have requirements for him, so he asked, "What do you need to do if the King of Han helps me like this?"
Zhao Chen also likes to deal with smart people.
He nodded and said, "I need Duke Zhao to support me unconditionally in the court in the future."
"In exchange, Zhao Chen is here, and Changsun's family is here."
"how?"
Zhao Chen's last sentence, but Changsun Wuji asked how he should answer.
If you support Zhao Chen unconditionally, that is, you will stand completely with Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen is not comparable to other princes in terms of his achievements or ability.
But Changsun Wuji was thinking about what happened today, and he was worried that Zhao Chen would target the emperor in the future.
If that is the case, Zhao Chen may not have a chance of winning.
At that time, the one involved will be his Changsun family.
But if he did not agree to Zhao Chen's conditions, Changsun Wuji would basically be inseparable from the court in this life.
Changsun Wuji was silent.
I was unable to make up my mind for a moment.
Zhao Chen didn't say anything, just waiting for Changsun Wuji's answer.
If Changsun Wuji refused to agree, Zhao Chen would not care. There were more officials in the court who wanted to climb up.
Chapter completed!
