Chapter 459
Chen Shuya drank an unknown amount of bath water before climbing up on the edge of the tub.

At this time, Xie Changyuan was already lazily leaning on the couch outside and yawning. He didn't look like a fool spying on his boudoir, but instead seemed as leisurely and comfortable on his own territory.

Chen Shuya was so frightened that she lay on the edge of the tub for a long time, not daring to move.

The face was pale and the little green snake had big eyes and small eyes.

Xie Changyuan didn't care whether she dared to wear clothes or not.

The room maintained an eerie and torturous silence.

Half a quarter of an hour later, a series of footsteps came from the courtyard outside, and Mrs. Chen's cold and somewhat gloomy voice quickly rang out: "What do you want to do again?"

Chen Shuya has been really noisy in the past few days.

Even as a mother, she was a little upset.

She didn't understand why the eldest daughter Chen Shuwen was so well-behaved, sensible, and dignified, since they were all girls raised by the same nuns and concubines.

The second daughter Chen Shuya is such a... dabbler.

There is no hope at all, and it will cause trouble for myself.

"What are you doing with the door closed in broad daylight?" Mrs. Chen Er stopped in front of the door, her eyebrows furrowed.

The maid whispered back: "Second Miss is taking a bath..."

"Why are you taking a bath in broad daylight...open the door!"

"Yes!"

The door creaked.

In the inner room, Xie Changyuan, who was sitting outside, also looked at the table lightly.

Chen Shuya shouted sensibly: "Mother, mother, come in by yourself. Don't bring grandma in, otherwise I will die for you. I will do what I say!"

Mrs. Chen Er had already entered the house at this time, and the maids and nuns around her had just stepped in. After hearing this, they all exited and stood in the corridor without uttering a word.

There was also a sensible maid who helped Mrs. Chen to close the door.

Mrs. Chen's eyebrows stood up angrily: "What kind of monster are you acting like? You -"

She hurriedly walked into the inner room angrily. As soon as she lifted the bead curtain to scold Chen Shuya, she saw Xie Changyuan sitting lazily on the couch, and her words were stuck in her throat.

After all, she had eaten rice and salt for a few more years and had seen a lot of great things in the world.

At this time, Xie Changyuan appeared here, and Xie Changyuan did not take any action to control her, such as tapping her acupuncture points, but Mrs. Chen Er stayed on the spot and never screamed or shouted for people outside to come in.

She is very clear.

Now that people from outside come in, Chen Shuya's reputation is over.

Mrs. Chen Er lowered her voice, gritted her teeth and asked, "Why is Mr. Xie here?"

"Originally, I wanted to talk to Mrs. Chen about some trivial matters. I was afraid that Mrs. Chen would not be in a good mood and would not want to see me, so I came uninvited."

Xie Changyuan said with a smile: "But who would have thought that when I arrived, the second lady already had guests, so I had no choice but to come here and invite the second lady to come and talk."

"..."

Mrs. Chen Er pondered for a moment, "You...what do you want from me?"

"Why don't you first tell me what benefits Mrs. Liu has promised you?"

"The fifth young master was joking. Madam Liu was just in a bad mood after her only son died, so she came to me to talk."

"Oh?"

Xie Changyuan looked at Mrs. Chen and smiled lightly.

The lazy eyes seemed to be extremely sharp, which made Mrs. Chen Er's eyes gradually dodge.After a while, Xie Changyuan asked: "Mrs. Chen Er, do you know that you are treasonous by helping those people now, which is tantamount to seeking death."

Mrs. Chen Er's face turned pale and she said, "What are you talking about? I don't understand! Either you express your intention and leave quickly, or I send someone in to arrest you!"

Xie Changyuan was not afraid and continued: "You are on the same boat as those people. Maybe you can really get some benefits in three or two days, but what about later?"

"Does Mrs. Chen know that Yun Qi is the eldest grandson of the emperor who is most valued by His Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? If something happens to him here, do you think the imperial court will send troops to crush Northern Hebei?"

"When the time comes, you and your precious son will have some hope of survival...Don't be tempted by Mrs. Liu and do something that you can't turn back from."

"Even if your own son cannot inherit the title of King of Zhongshan for the time being, who can guarantee that he will not be prosperous and wealthy in the future?"

"He is still young and has a long life ahead of him. Opportunities are hard to say."

"Maybe you can't be the king of Zhongshan. It's better to live a happy and joyful life than to die under other people's ambitions."

Mrs. Chen Er's face was mixed with blue and white, and she spoke with difficulty: "Don't talk nonsense, I have never-"

"mother!"

After listening for a long time, Chen Shulan was shocked and said: "You are going to conspire with the Liu family. What are you colluding with? Are you going to kill your father and grandfather? Are you crazy!"

Mrs. Chen was so angry that she almost fainted, "Shut up!"

Xie Changyuan decisively flew out his fan and beat Chen Shuya unconscious.

Seeing that Chen Shuya was about to speak in the tub again, Mrs. Chen Er quickly ran over and grabbed her daughter's arm, forced her into a more stable position, and then turned stiffly to look at Xie Changyuan.

"You are the only one left in the city now, and you don't have many followers around you. If the Liu family really wants to deal with you, what can you do?"

Xie Changyuan asked with a smile: "Madam is familiar with Chen Wenzhuo, have you ever heard him mention the Bozhou incident?"

Mrs. Chen's second wife had a livid face, "Young Master Xie, be careful what you say. Chen Wenzhuo is the eldest son of the Chen family. I am the second wife of the Chen family. I am the aunt and nephew."

"We only meet once a year on New Year's Day, so how can we be familiar with each other!"

"it is good."

Xie Changyuan smiled and changed his words: "Madam once worked in collusion with Chen Wenzhuo and plotted many things——"

Mrs. Chen Er's face became even more ugly, and she was so angry that she was shaking like a sieve.

Xie Changyuan didn't wait for her to get angry and said, "I wonder if he mentioned the incident in Bozhou? When I was in Bozhou, I only had a long entourage, but he was still helpless against me."

"I...although I don't have as many troops as Yun Qi and can coordinate and balance the situation by dispatching troops and generals, we always have some unscrupulous methods."

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Mrs. Chen felt that Xie Changyuan's words "dispatch troops and generals" were a bit harsh.

Before he had time to think about it, Xie Changyuan said again: "I always have a way to make the Liu family feel uneasy and unable to act according to their original plan. Do you believe it?"

"..."

Mrs. Chen Er began to hesitate.

In fact, after Mrs. Liu said so much, although she was a little moved, she was also very scared.

No matter how bad the Zhongshan Prince's Palace is, it is still her husband's family.

No matter how partial Chen Zhiji was to Chen Wenshuo, the eldest son of the concubine, he had always treated their biological son fairly well, except that he would not make concessions on the matter of title.

If a person had not been forced into a desperate situation, who would choose to abandon his family and take the risk of treason to seek power.

The purpose of seeking power is to live a better life, not to seek death.

What's more, Xie Changyuan had just mentioned that Yun Qi "had a lot of troops and was able to dispatch troops and generals." Now, after Mrs. Chen calmed down for a moment, she gradually remembered that Dingxi King Yun Qi had military power and had his own troops.

Maybe he had already prepared for this patrol in Jizhou and secretly mobilized troops to do something.

If that's the case, wouldn't it be stupid to join Liu Chunjun's gang?
