Chen Kaizhi naturally would not think that Chen Zhijing's words were just casual words, which obviously had a profound meaning.

Yes, you, Chen Kaizhi, are just a small editor, and you, Chen Kaizhi, need to welcome you? Why don’t you ask others to greet you?

I think you, Chen Kaizhi, followed the Queen Mother wholeheartedly.

Chen Kaizhi, I originally valued you very much, but why do you have to go against me?

Before Chen Kaizhi could react, Chen Zhijing smiled at him and then said, "Actually, I think you are a talent. The Queen Mother loves you, which proves that I have a good vision."

In the face of King Zhao's praise, Chen Kaizhi just laughed it off.

Fortunately, Chen Zhijing is a very cunning person. Although he said this, he looked worried in a blink of an eye. From here, you can look at the undulating mountains in the distance. Further forward are Hangu Pass and the mountains of Wushan Mountain, which are as undulating as a dragon ridge.

Chen Zhijing's gaze fell in the distance and couldn't help but sigh: "Look at this mountain, which stretches for hundreds of miles, is like a dragon, it's really magnificent."

Chen Kaizhi really had no good feelings for this prince who had always been good at pretending. He didn't want to respond, but if this was the case, he would inevitably seem arrogant. After all, he was a dignified prince, so he had to nod indifferently and said, "Your Highness is saying."

Chen Zhijing looked back, staring straight at Chen Kaizhi, and asked curiously: "Is there such a mountain in Jinling?"

Chen Kaizhi smiled and said, "The mountains in Jinling are a little smaller, so how can they match these?"

Chen Zhijing nodded and said, "So this is a crouching tiger and hidden dragon. Naturally, there are dragons and tigers everywhere in this world. In the misty Jiangnan, aren't there also heroes like Chen Xiu? But..."

Speaking of this, he continued to stare at Chen Kaizhi deeply, with a smile on his face: "But... there are countless heroes in this world. Look at Ying Bu when the Chu and Han Dynasty fought for hegemony. What's more, he was not a great hero? It's a pity that he didn't know the current affairs and served the King of Chu. As a result... Although he has the talent of versatility, wouldn't he surrender to survive and ask for surrender? There are so many heroes and heroes in this world. But all those who can really achieve great things and make the world admire him for the sake of the times. If a person takes the wrong path, he is a hero who is a hero?"

Chen Kaizhi heard his feelings and was suffering from embarrassment. Your Highness, in such a hurry, compared himself to Liu Bang? Is this... too confident?

Of course, Chen Kaizhi knew that pretending was second, and using this story to hit him was the key point, just to tell him that you see that Chu Bawang is a very awesome person, but in the end he was defeated by Liu Bang. Why is that?

It is because King Chu took the wrong path that he lost everything. Chen Kaizhi is also heading in the wrong direction now. You must be careful, and don’t end up with nothing at that time.

If you look back now, I can help you. You can think it through carefully.

Chen Kaizhi naturally understood. Even though he was so arrogant in his heart that he was too arrogant, he was still calm on the surface. He just smiled at King Zhao and said, "Thank you for your advice."

Chen Zhijing smiled and looked very gentle: "You are indeed different from others. A young person like you is unsustainable, but I found that you are too stoic. You are not like a boy, but like an old fox."

Chen Kaizhi bowed again and said, "Thank you, Your Highness for the praise."

"..." Chen Zhijing found that he could no longer communicate with Chen Kaizhi. This person was really like a wood. He didn't understand it no matter how he said it. But it shouldn't be that he didn't understand it, but Chen Kaizhi didn't want to follow him, so he was like this!

However, King Zhao was not angry, but smiled at Chen Kaizhi.

At this time, his guard had prepared a rich lunch for him and had already been arranged in the office pavilion in the distance. He waved to Chen Kaizhi and said enthusiastically: "Ms. Chen Xiu, I have to rush to accompany me to have a drink in the afternoon."

Chen Kaizhi looked at the wine and food in the pavilion from afar. Even if he was just out, His Highness just set out in a simple manner, but never treated himself unfairly.

Although the food is tempting, he still shook his head and said, "Your Highness, the emperor wants to eat with the soldiers, sorry."

Although it is a pity to let go of the food, it is better not to have anything to do with King Zhao at this time.

There is a kind of person in this world. The more he pleases you, the less simple his purpose is.

Chen Kaizhi also deeply understood one thing: there is never a free lunch in this world.

Therefore, Chen Kaizhi decisively rejected King Zhao's invitation.

When Chen Zhijing saw Chen Kaizhi's refusal, his eyes lowered slightly and his eyes became a little dark, but it was just a blink of an eye. The next moment, the corner of his mouth curled up slightly, and he showed a faint smile at Chen Kaizhi, but he did not force himself to stay. Chen Kaizhi's attitude has already explained everything.

It is obvious that Chen Kaizhi is unwilling to be with him.

He felt a little regretful. Chen Kaizhi was indeed a talent, but he was bribed by the empress dowager.

What a pity. He was the one who misjudged the truth that such a talent was first grabbed by the Queen Mother.

He sighed deeply in his heart. At this moment, he saw Chen Kaizhi saluting and walking towards the group of Qiu Bas who were sitting on the ground and setting up a big pot.

Chen Zhijing couldn't help but shake his head, looked at Chen Kaizhi's slender back, and sighed helplessly: "You are a beauty, how can you be a thief?"

Chen Kaizhi was already sitting among Qiu Ba and someone had already taken the dried meat as if he was pleased. The water was cooked and boiling. Then everyone scooped water, took out the dried meat, pinched it and soaked it in the boiling water, and put it in their mouths when it softened a little.

The taste... is actually quite good, and it is easy to be full. Although this dried meat is only a little bit, once it is filled with water, it gradually expands and becomes a large piece.

Unfortunately... without fruits and tea, I can only make it like this.

After the meal, I continued to rush forward. Along the way, the team had already passed through Hangu Pass and sixty or seventy miles westward, and it was Mianchi.

Mianchi is just a county town at the junction of Chang'an and Luoyang. At this time, I heard that the Empress Dowager was going to pass by, and I also heard that His Highness of the King of Zhao was going to welcome him here. The local county magistrate was already sweating profusely, for fear that there would be a little mistake, so I came to welcome the King of Zhao first from afar.

When he saw the King of Zhao's great lord, the county magistrate led the county officials to bow down from afar.

Chen Zhijing rushed forward and said, "Is there any news about Ganquan Palace? When will it arrive?"

The county magistrate hurriedly said respectfully: "If you go back to your highness, the guards who came first have arrived. I'm afraid they will arrive at noon."

It was dawn at this time, and the surroundings were filled with mist. Chen Zhijing nodded and nodded in dust.

The county magistrate said again: "Your Highness has come from afar, and it's still early, so you might as well go to the county first to take a bath and have some rest."

Chen Zhijing was still covered with dewdrops and was covered in wind and frost, and he looked quite embarrassed, but he raised his horse whip and said with a serious look: "No need, just wait in this long pavilion."

Chen Kaizhi beat the horse and had the light of Chen Zhijing, so his small writing was naturally inconspicuous.

At this time, he was actually a little tired. After more than two days of travel, he wanted to take a shower, but after hearing Chen Zhijing's words, he knew very well that Chen Zhijing certainly did not want to take a shower and change his clothes, and went to see his mother in a vigor. He was not so stupid. Most of the time he wanted was such a embarrassed look. When he arrived in front of the Empress Dowager, he seemed to suffer a lot to show his filial piety.

Most things in the world can be learned from one example and applied to other things.

You can also see a rough idea of ​​something from many details. A person who even had to go out to eat a lot is now keeping himself in a mess. It is obvious that he is anxious to express himself.

So……

Chen Kaizhi thought in his heart: "It seems that the Empress Dowager must not be recruited by King Zhao. If the Empress Dowager really loves this son, why should King Zhao show so much effort? The more he performs, the more it means that the friendship between mother and son is not deep. Even King Zhao cannot grasp the purpose of the Empress Dowager in Luoyang. Behind King Zhao's unremitting efforts, there are some factors of anxiety and anxiety in his heart."

Thinking of this joint, Chen Kaizhi couldn't help but laugh in his heart, but he still didn't show any expression on his face.

Finally, it was noon and a team finally came winding like a long snake.

In addition to hundreds of guards, there were countless palace maids and eunuchs accompanying him. This was simply a huge convoy, with countless large carts loaded with various vessels and items for the Empress Dowager's daily life.

What Chen Kaizhi did not expect was that the Empress Dowager's car was not gorgeous, but seemed extremely simple. But when you look at the guards around you, you can tell how noble the people sitting in the car were.

Chen Zhijing was waiting anxiously, but when he saw it from afar, he was about to turn over the horse. Chen Kaizhi and others were also preparing to get on the horse. However, Chen Zhijing looked back at Chen Kaizhi and ordered with a faint expression: "You are waiting here, I will go and talk to my mother first."

With his order, the others had to wait in place, and no one dared to go forward.

So, His Highness of the King of Zhao rushed forward alone. Chen Kaizhi narrowed his eyes and saw that he was at the Empress Dowager's carriage, and then fell to the ground. The car seemed to have stopped, but did not lift the curtain. It seemed to be lingering for a moment. The carriage continued to move forward. Chen Zhijing beat the horse and guarded the carriage beside the carriage.

When the carriage and horses approached, Chen Kaizhi and others quickly dismounted. Chen Kaizhi quickly stepped forward, arrived in front of the carriage, and saluted: "My minister Chen Kaizhi, I have seen the Empress Dowager."

There was no movement in the car, and the eunuchs and palace maids on both sides were standing still.
