"Chen Rui..." Wei Zijin wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Chen Rui.
"Zi Jin, I know it was the prince who asked you to persuade me. Please thank the prince on my behalf..."
Chen Rui also knew that if the prince had not done his best, he would not have been released from prison so easily, so he naturally felt grateful to Xiao Jingyao!
"Maybe as you said, my choice to resign is actually a kind of escape, but I am also tired and just want to stay away from here and away from these power struggles!"
Seeing that Chen Rui had already revealed unconcealed tiredness, Wei Zijin fell silent, knowing that he could not keep him if he said something!
In fact, she could understand why Chen Rui felt tired. Chen Rui was a rare virtuous talent and had a passion and ambition. Otherwise, Xiao Heng would not have been valued so much at the beginning, so that he would have been young. He became the Minister of State!
But no matter how young or passionate you are, in the struggles of various powerful factions, the passion will gradually be eroded... either go with the flow and join one of them, or it will become more and more smooth!
But Chen Rui is not a person of any kind. He is straightforward and a little stubborn. He doesn't know that he has blamed many ministers!
If some ministers had not secretly held grudges and had taken advantage of the death of the prince to study him, Xiao Heng would not have been furious and sent him to prison, wishing he could have been buried with Xiao Changgong!
"Chen Rui, you will feel tired, I'm not surprised... Who would be willing to be in the open and secret struggle of this power?" Wei Zijin said this with emotion and smiled mockingly.
Seeing Wei Zijin's bitter smile, Chen Rui felt soft and almost blurted out subconsciously: "Since you don't want to, why don't you choose to leave here and retreat to the mountains and forests like me?"
Wei Zijin shook his head and said righteously: "I won't choose to retreat, because retreat can't solve any problem. Instead of doing this, it's better to face the difficulties and solve them easily. No matter how difficult the situation is, there will be a day of reverse! ”
This is her true words from the bottom of her heart. Just as she was reborn for Wei Zijin, determined to avenge her, from keeping her low profile to achieving her goal step by step, and retaliating against those who have harmed her one by one, she has encountered a dilemma. But she never gave up because she firmly believed that there was a way to solve any dilemma!
Seeing Wei Zijin's firm expression, Chen Rui's frown unconsciously let go, and said with a smile on his face: "You are worthy of being a member of the Wei family. You will not retreat, you are the real you..."
He said this, paused and smiled bitterly, "It's not like me, I have read so many books of sages, but I'm just a coward!"
If he hadn't escaped reality like that, perhaps he wouldn't have let her leave her side at the beginning, and now he wouldn't have chosen to resign and return home!
"No, Chen Rui, I know you are definitely not a coward!" Wei Zijin's affirmative tone made Chen Rui stunned.
Without waiting for Chen Rui to answer, she said again: "I know that you chose to resign because of your disappointment in the court and the emperor..."
Seeing Chen Rui's body suddenly tremble, Wei Zijin knew that he had guessed his thoughts.
But she didn't say anything more, nor did she persuade him again, but said with a faint smile: "But the situation will always turn around, you have to be confident... Chen Rui, no matter whether you want to leave the imperial capital or not, my prince and I They always regard you as a good friend! Of course, if you change your mind, on the eighth day of next month, the Yinshi Pavilion in Huixianlou, the prince and I will be waiting for you there!"
ps: When I saw everyone’s comments, I can only say that the death of the prince is also a necessary part of the plot development... Although Ali herself also likes the prince!
