Chapter 55 The Reason
"The old man you see now is completely different from the old man five years ago." Qi Yingzhi sighed: "It is said that the old man was very resourceful and capable when he was young."

"so?"

So what's the problem with being able?

Shouldn't it be better if you have the ability?

"With ability, one's heart is higher than the sky." Qi Yingzhi laughed: "I feel that I am great, and that what he deserves should be the best in the world, and what he doesn't like is the turn of others. "

"To put it bluntly, he doesn't like others."

"A person who cares about himself feels that everyone in the world is inferior to him, and then treats others as slaves who still smile at him after being slapped in the face by him."

Qi Yingzhi glanced at Chu Tianshu slowly: "Who can stand such a person?"

"The eyes are higher than the top." Chu Tianshu smiled: "Such people... are really rare."

"It's rare, but it's not uncommon." Qi Yingzhi poured a cup of tea and placed it opposite her.

Seeing this, Chu Tianshu stepped forward to drink the tea: "So you offended someone and caused the palace to decline?"

"Almost so."

"Isn't it too simple?" Chu Tianshu thought for a while: "Can you be more detailed?"

"More specifically, he offended eight princes at the same time."

"For so many years in the imperial court, there are only 32 princes in total."

"But there are only 31 princes who can be passed on by blood."

"Eliminate the 'King Li' and the old man himself, the King Chen, who normally belong to the small circle of princes. There are only thirty people in total."

"He is so talented that he can offend eight of them at once."

"Two of them are princes who have been in-laws for generations."

"And the imperial court's 'Conference of the Kings' is changed every three years, and there are only twenty princes participating in the political discussion in each session."

"King Chen, I haven't been able to enter the 'Conference of Kings' for eleven consecutive sessions."

"And the last 20 years." Qi Yingzhi thought for a while and corrected herself: "It should be said that it was the last 19 years."

"The imperial court frequently started wars, did you hear that day when Cui He and Cui Yizhu died admonishing?"

"These 19 years are the moment when the country's national strength is truly advancing."

"Relying on the war, everyone has a good life."

"But also because of the war, many things have to be reshuffled."

"The rich and powerful must be united, the kings must share their profits, the royal family must expand their territories, and the ordinary people must work with high salaries."

"Whether it's a big victory or a small victory, or a big defeat or a small defeat, as long as there is a war, everyone will have a good life."

"As for the military, the 'Conference of the Kings' headed by the emperor should have been the biggest beneficiary."

"The royal residences of each family are now more than twice as strong in financial and human resources as they were 20 years ago."

"But Prince Chen's Mansion is the only exception."

"Because of King Chen."

"Because of us, King Chen."

"He always feels that his personal ability is the best among all kings, and therefore all kings should be headed by him."

"But in fact, he is not number one in terms of knowledge or art of war, policymaking or writing."

"His personal ability ranks in the top ten among all the kings." Qi Yingzhi drank a cup of tea by himself: "I say that, do you understand?"

The top ten may be a bit wronged.

But he will definitely not be able to enter the top three.

"So you've always been so arrogant?" Chu Tianshu couldn't believe it.

"It's just so arrogant." Qi Yingzhi sneered: "It's only in the past few years that she is willing to be honest. Although she didn't admit her mistake, she is much more obedient."

"I've been running around for five or six years, and I've betrothed all the young masters and ladies in the mansion."

"It's not just me who has a marriage contract on my body, that bastard Qi Zhongliu, and the eleven or two other people in the house are actually carrying a marriage contract."

"So Miss wants to break off the engagement." Chu Tianshu smiled playfully: "What does the prince say?"

"What can an old man say?" Qi Yingzhi sneered: "It's just that I have learned a little bit, and the problem of eyes above the top has not been cured."

"However, my situation is quite special." Qi Yingzhi lowered her head and fiddled with the teacup, a little uninterested: "Qin Yi looks like that...but he is the only son of Qin Fuzheng."

"In his situation, in this world, no matter whether Dayun is in the interior or someone from a foreign country, he is worthy of it."

"On the contrary, I'm not good enough for him." Qi Yingzhi spread her hands, "But it doesn't matter, because I never thought about marrying him."

"Without the help of Young Master Qin, it would be very difficult for Miss Six to resign the engagement." Chu Tian breathed a sigh of relief.

"Who says it's not? I'm worried."

"Thank you, Miss Six, for clarifying the confusion."

"I can't say thank you." Qi Yingzhi also sighed: "Say something, and I will feel much more at ease."

Chu Tianshu could hear what she meant, so he just smiled.

Seeing that Chu Tianshu didn't intend to share his thoughts at all, Qi Yingzhi suddenly felt bored: "I don't know what kind of secret is hiding, talking and doing things are so boring."

"It can't be as frank as Miss Six." Chu Tianshu arched his hands: "I'll go back first."

"You still live in the mansion, right?"

"Yes."

"I've made some progress with the nobles in the palace and Miss Xie, right?"

Chu Tianshu looked at Qi Yingzhi.

This is what he has denied before.

But at this moment, Qi Yingzhi asked again.

this is her...

Qi Yingzhi smiled: "Don't worry, the most I can do is use you."

Chu Tianshu felt alert: "Miss Six, don't be joking."

Qi Yingzhi waved her hand: "You go back, come to the factory tomorrow and help me manage the factory."

Chu Tianshu stared at the girl.

Some hair in my heart.

This girl... is very smart, very scheming, ruthless, and has a high class status, so she has a great ability to dispatch resources and manpower.

Such a person wants to use himself...

"Miss Six." Chu Tianshu took a deep breath and suppressed his guard: "I don't really dislike you wanting to use me."

"Because antipathy doesn't make any sense either."

Chu Tianshu couldn't stop her.

Unless you kill her by hand.

But can't.

"So I hope that Miss Six can do me a favor."

"Tell me about it." Qi Yingzhi pondered, "You have a lot hidden in your heart, but since you speak at this time, it must be a very important matter."

"Master Seventeen has a maid by his side."

"Xiao He?" Qi Yingzhi's eyebrows turned cold: "You have an affair with her?"

"how dare you?!"

"Do you know Miss Xie's status..."

"There is no personal affair." Chu Tianshu denied: "When I went to say goodbye to the Seventeenth Young Master today, I told Xiao He about the divorce."

"She's happy."

"The two of us have no friendship, and we only meet two or three times."

"But she lent me a dollar."

"She saved money to redeem herself."

Qi Yingzhi frowned, thought for a while, then shook her head: "I don't know you very well, but you have to know."

"You can't have an emotional, physical bond with any woman right now."

Those who eat soft rice have to put themselves in a proper position.

"My situation is clear in my heart." Chu Tianshu smiled.

"Xiao He, right?" Qi Yingzhi nodded: "You are a kind person, that's fine."

"I agree to this matter." Qi Yingzhi nodded.

"Thank you Miss Six." Chu Tian breathed a sigh of relief.

For the time being, this girl should be trustworthy in this regard.
