How can a mere enemy like me?

Chapter 67 Good friends holding hands, the bullied couple sympathize with each other

After looking at Tang Fan deeply, Jun Chaoxi didn't care about Tang Fan's mood, and was taken by Su Bai to walk out of the Tang family and go straight to the Su Mansion.

however.

As soon as he arrived at the Su Mansion, Jun Chaoxi left Su Bai alone and went back to the room he had lived in before to rest.

Besides worrying that Su Bai would continue to bully him.

Jun Chaoxi also felt a little exhausted both physically and mentally.

Being bullied by Su Bai in front of Tang Fan, she not only had to endure Su Bai's bullying, but also had to pay attention to Tang Fan's movements at all times, trying not to arouse Tang Fan's suspicion...

This is so hard and tiring!
Especially before this, she was severely bullied by Su Bai, wearing that hateful bell...

Even someone as strong as Jun Chaoxi couldn't help but feel exhausted at this moment.

Su Bai naturally would not serve Jun Chaoxi. It was good enough that Su Bai would not continue to bully this short-tempered dog who was always taking advantage of others. Why would he take care of him?

And Jun Chaoxi didn't want Su Bai to take care of him.

then.

The task of taking care of Jun Chaoxi fell on Xiao Yunyun.

Sitting beside Jun Chaoxi's bed, Xiao Yunyun wiped the sweat from Jun Chaoxi's forehead, then poured her a cup of warm water and handed it to her mouth.

Seeing that Jun Chaoxi was too lazy to even get up, Xiao Yunyun had no choice but to pick Jun Chaoxi up, let her lean on her arms, and feed her so that she drank all the water.

"Thank you, Sister Yunyun..."

Jun Chaoxi lay on the bed, holding Xiao Yunyun's hand, biting his lips lightly, and almost looked like he was in tears.

After being bullied many times by Su Bai that day, when he was physically and mentally exhausted, he received such gentle and meticulous care and attention from Xiao Yunyun.

Even Fairy Jinglan felt a little uncomfortable at this moment.

Adults can have emotional breakdowns in just a moment, and what they fear most is sudden concern...

"How did you get into this situation?"

Xiao Yunyun gathered Jun Zhaoxi's hair and said with a hint of tenderness,

"I don't know what you're going to do, but you should always do it within your capabilities. You've put yourself in this state..."

"It's not me... that evil villain always bullies me..."

As if she had found someone to open her heart to, Jun Chaoxi became more delicate and gentle like a girl, mumbling and complaining in a low voice.

Listening to her words and looking at Jun Chaoxi at this moment, Xiao Yunyun vaguely felt that she was somewhat familiar?
"Master Su is actually a pretty good person..."

Xiao Yunyun was silent for a moment and could only comfort Jun Chaoxi in this way.

But for that.

Jun Chaoxi just pursed his lips and muttered something, not daring to say anything more.

This kind of her made Xiao Yunyun feel more familiar.

Faintly, she smelled a familiar scent from the powerful fairy before her...

She seems quite similar to me?
Although it was a bit embarrassing to say this, Xiao Yunyun vaguely felt that she seemed to have found a fellow bully?

After hesitating for a while, Xiao Yunyun decided to test it out a bit, and said cautiously,

"If you are bullied, then fight back. I think you are stronger than Lord Su. You should be able to win, right?"

"What can we do if we can win?"

Jun Chaoxi felt even more wronged.

"If not... I would have rebelled long ago!"

Not to mention the white jade order in Su Bai's hand, just because Su Bai wanted to take her to find the truth, she didn't dare to resist Su Bai.

What should I do if Su Bai kicks me out because of my resistance?
Although he felt wronged for being bullied, Jun Chaoxi had no choice but to do so for the truth and for everything he wanted to know.

See this.

Xiao Yunyun was completely certain that this seemingly powerful fairy in front of her was actually the same kind as herself...

She unconsciously rubbed Jun Zhaoxi's head, and when she looked at him, there was a little more recognition and pity in her eyes.

"I have some experience with being bullied. If I can't resist, I can only comfort myself."

"Life must go on, doesn't it?"

Hear this.

Jun Chaoxi was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up, he looked up at Xiao Yunyun and asked,

"Sister Yunyun, were you always bullied before?"

"Although it's not quite the same as what you experienced, it's pretty much the same."

Xiao Yunyun sighed helplessly, and then briefly told Jun Chaoxi about her past.

She was used and abandoned by her family, sent out as a tool for a powerful family, and then sent out by her fiancé's family, and used by her fiancé to frame Su Bai...

Listening to Xiao Yunyun's story, Jun Chaoxi was a little shocked.

She couldn't even imagine such an experience, and she didn't know how she would be able to persevere if she were treated like this...

Compared with Xiao Yunyun's experience, her experiences seemed nothing.

but.

When it comes to their reactions to being bullied, their reactions are surprisingly consistent.

Xiao Yunyun has been silently enduring, and Jun Chaoxi has also endured the humiliation...

At this moment, the two bullied people seemed to have some sympathy for each other.

The two people who were not very familiar with each other originally, after sharing their experiences of being bullied, their friendship developed rapidly and they soon became good girlfriends.

even.

That night, unlike before, the two still slept together, but they also had a night chat session that they had never had before.

When talking about the past, Jun Zhaoxi was filled with emotion.
"After leaving the capital for so many years, I came back and found that the capital is completely different from before."

"I've basically lost contact with all the friends I met in Beijing. The only one who still treats me the same as before is my godsister."

"By the way, my sister is called Wu Ningshuang. You should know Sister Yun Yun, right?"

As if thinking of something, Jun Chaoxi took Xiao Yunyun's hand and asked curiously,

"Sister Yunyun, are you close to my sister?"

Hear this.

Xiao Yunyun was silent for a long time before she sighed and said with a complicated expression,
"I used to have a very good relationship with her. When she was lacking resources for cultivation, the Xiao family funded her. That's how she got to know me. We were very good friends back then."

"That's not right." Jun Zhaoxi discovered the problem.
"Then why didn't you two speak when I saw you before?"

"After all, that was all in the past. Afterwards, Ning Shuang and I had a falling out."

Sighing again, Xiao Yunyun spoke softly.

When she said this, her expression became more complicated. It was obvious that she still couldn't let go of the Naxi incident.

Seeing Xiao Yunyun like this, Jun Chaoxi couldn't help but be curious. He shook Xiao Yunyun's arm and asked,

"Sister Yunyun, what exactly is the conflict between you and my sister?"

"Tell me about it, I might be able to help you adjust it. Although I don't know anything yet, what if this is just a misunderstanding?"

Jun Zhaoxi smiled embarrassedly and lowered his voice.
"Sister Yun Yun, it's not that I'm biased, but in my understanding, you are a truly good person. At least I have never seen anyone more righteous than you."

"My sister would never do those bad things. Even if you give her more benefits, she won't do them."

She was not saying this to defend Wu Ningshuang, but was telling the truth.

In her memory and cognition, Wu Ningshuang has always been such a person, who has insisted on justice day after day for many years and has truly engraved fairness and justice in her bones.

Such a Wu Ningshuang is also particularly admirable.

Jun Chaoxi really found it hard to imagine what Wu Ningshuang could do to let others down.

"Well, this is all in the past. What's the point of talking about it now?"

Xiao Yunyun was silent for a moment, then shook her head and said.

But Jun Chaoxi was not willing to miss it, so he shook Xiao Yunyun's arm again.

"Sister Yunyun, just tell me."

But faced with the past breakup with her best friend, Xiao Yunyun, who had always been a punching bag, was unusually tough and chose to keep her mouth shut.

She shook her head firmly again, then gently tapped Jun Zhaoxi's forehead and glared at her.
"Don't ask any more questions. Children don't need to know about the adult world."

But you're not much older than me.

Jun Chaoxi grumbled in her heart, her desire to watch the show was completely unsatisfied, but seeing that Xiao Yunyun was still refusing to say anything, she had no choice but to give up.

And just when the two of them were chatting at night.

Su Bai was sitting in the study, looking at the list in front of him, squinting his eyes slightly, looking thoughtful.

It seems that his recent actions have been very successful. Not only did he successfully fight back and obtain the sheepskin drawings, he even struck a large group of people in the court, helping Emperor Wu to successfully carry out a major change of personnel.

But Su Bai himself knew that in this good situation, there was a huge danger hidden.

Whether it's the Left Prime Minister, the officials in the court, or the powerful people, how could they be so willing to see their own interests damaged?
Their counterattack will probably come soon.

But I don’t know what methods they will use to fight back against me and Emperor Wu this time?
As expected, the next day, a crisis against Su Bai and Emperor Wu broke out in the capital.

Just as Su Bai thought.

Those powerful people and court officials are not easy to deal with.

This time, Su Bai's movements were really too big.

Not only did he capture the son of the Left Prime Minister, he also took the opportunity to capture nearly half of the court officials, and even completely captured the newly rising powerful family, the Ye family.

Emperor Wu and Su Bai cooperated very well. As soon as Su Bai withdrew his men, Emperor Wu replaced them with his own people.

In this way, Emperor Wu's control over the court naturally became stronger, but it also deeply affected the interests of those powerful court officials.

Even though they were only half of the court officials, the relationships behind them were complicated, not to mention that there was also a Left Prime Minister involved.

If you think about it carefully, Su Bai's actions this time alone involved almost the entire group of dignitaries and court officials in the capital.

This time, Su Bai and Emperor Wu seemed to have stirred up a hornet's nest, causing a huge reaction from them.

early morning.

Su Bai took Jun Chaoxi and the other two to Wanmin Court. When they passed by a vegetable market, Su Bai found something wrong.

This kind of vegetable market that opens early in the morning usually offers good quality products at low prices.

Not to mention the common people who come out early in the morning to buy food for their families, even many restaurants and hotels buy their food here.

So.

This place is crowded every day, and almost everyone who comes here will buy a lot of things to take home.

But what Su Bai saw today was that there were far fewer people, and no one had anything in their hands. Even those restaurants and hotels that purchased in bulk did not have much in their cars.

Moreover, everyone had a sad face, as if they had encountered some trouble.

After stopping, Su Bai pulled over a few people to ask, and then went to a few stalls to ask.

The final result made Su Bai frown.
"The prices of food and vegetables have increased several times...something's not right."

Jun Chaoxi, who was following behind Su Bai, looked at Su Bai's appearance and couldn't help but ask,
"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

But Su Bai did not respond to her, but just wandered around the capital with Jun Chaoxi.

From the vegetable market to the small roadside shops, and even the big shops opened by the powerful, Su Bai has been to several of them.

Every time he went to a store, the first thing Su Bai did was to ask about the price.

By the end, Su Bai's brows were deeply furrowed.

"The prices of commodities throughout the capital have increased several times, and this covers all aspects of food, clothing, housing and transportation..."

That's not all!
In the morning, prices only rose slightly, but after only half an hour, prices doubled, and there was a trend of further increase.

In just one night, prices in the entire capital skyrocketed!
There must be someone behind this who is fanning the flames.

What Su Bai could think of was naturally the counterattack from court officials and dignitaries caused by this major reshuffle.

"This is really troublesome..."

however.

Facing the worried Su Bai, Jun Chaoxi looked very confused, even a little indifferent.
"It's just a price increase, that's okay, right?"

Hear this.

Su Bai glanced at this fairy who was high and mighty and out of touch with the mundane world, and could not help but said with disdain,
"I've already told you to look carefully and think more... Have you thought about it all?"

"With just this little knowledge, how can you have the nerve to say that you are the former crown prince's legitimate daughter?"

Seeing that Jun Chaoxi was still a little dissatisfied, Su Bai generously explained.
"Ordinary people can only earn so little money a day. According to the previous prices, after paying for daily food, clothing, housing and transportation, they can barely survive."

"But according to today's prices, the money people earn in a day can't even buy a meal or a foot of cloth. What do you think will happen?"

"This is just today. If it continues like this for a long time, do you think these people will be willing to starve to death, or will they rise up in rebellion?"

"me…"
