Chapter 2007 Cooperation?

  Although the Deng family is now arranged to deal with the officials who were involved in the case of King Huainan, Qi Shangshu always feels that Emperor Xuanming did this not because of his hard work, but because the other party originally thought so.

  Because of realizing this, Qi Shangshu was in a worse mood.

  In the early court, he fought with Taifu Deng again, tried his best to keep the other party from stepping down, and also made the Deng family offend many courtiers.

  Seeing Taifu Deng glaring at him, Qi Shangshu's depressed mood finally eased a bit.

  For the Deng family, he wished he could pull him down immediately.

  But during the palace change, Deng Jieyu was fine. Recently, Emperor Xuanming was in a bad mood and became more and more obsessed with beauty. Although he was dissatisfied with Deng Jieyu, he did not completely fall out of favor.

  Because of this, Qi Shangshu feels more and more that if he wants to deal with the Deng family, he must first let them fall out of favor.

  Before the other party took money, the eldest son of the Deng family also mixed with the prince of the Marquis Ande and others. These evidences were on the surface, and even some officials directly impeached him in the court.

  Eldest Prince Deng was only imprisoned, and no loss was caused.

   Qi Shangshu had a heart attack at the time, and he also realized that Emperor Xuanming wanted to favor the Deng family. Unless the Deng family made a big mistake, there was no way to pull the other party down.

  Thinking of being sent to the palace now, Miss Qi's concubine who has never even met the emperor once.

   There is also Qi Zhaoyi who cannot return to the palace.

  And this time, King Qi was implicated and stayed in the capital, and the opportunity to go to the North was infinitely delayed.

   Qi Shangshu hated it.

  The happy mood just now disappeared in an instant.

  He didn't make the Deng family pay the price at all this time!

   It was in this depressed mood that Qi Shangshu noticed Chu Heng who was more low-key than usual.

  He raised his feet and followed in stride, and called to Chu Heng: "Master Chu, please stay safe."

   "Lord Qi." Chu Heng was so respectful and polite that no one could find his fault.

   Qi Shangshu looked at him and smiled kindly: "I heard that Master Chu recently took his family members to Zhuangzi to escape the summer heat?"

   "Master Qi is well informed." Chu Heng's attitude became cold.

   Qi Shangshu was rarely angry this time, but smiled meaningfully at him: "I know this, and it is also because I heard that Lord Chu met an assassin when he went out of the city this time."

   "Master Qi is looking for me for something?" Chu Heng answered calmly.

   "Master Chu found out who is the master behind the assassin? Could it be that Master Chu is so generous, as if nothing happened?" Qi Shangshu is indeed in trouble.

   He naturally sent someone to watch Chu Heng.

   Like the assassination this time, Chu Heng didn't deliberately cover it up, and the news would naturally be found out by interested people.

  He directly revealed the fact that he sent someone to inquire about Chu Heng's news, because he also found out who was behind the attack. The colder Chu Heng treated him, the more it showed that Chu Heng cared about his family.

   It’s good to have a weakness.

  At least he can take advantage of this incident and let Chu Heng deal with the Deng family.

  Chu Heng squinted his eyes: "Master Qi just wanted to talk about this?"

   "Of course not, I just think that the Deng family is too obtrusive and too courageous, and they have stretched their hands into the back house. This is clearly a bully. Presumably Master Chu also wants to teach him a lesson." Qi Shangshu said confidently.

  Chu Heng is very angry, and he is not going to let the Deng family go. He has not done anything now, but he knows that what he can do now will not cause any actual harm to the Deng family.

  He is waiting, waiting for an opportunity.

  Besides, even if he doesn't like the Deng family, he doesn't plan to cooperate with Qi Shangshu.
