Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 1039

Empress Dowager Jiqing hated such a greedy face the most and found Yao Fen extremely disgusting.

I haven't even done anything yet, but you're already asking for a reward! Do you want me to give you the position of Queen Mother?

But then again, people who are short-sighted and greedy are easier to control than others. The Queen Mother smiled sincerely, "If you like it, after the matter is completed, the Lingwang Mansion will be given to your Chen family."

It was just a matter of words, and she was not stingy. After the success, this kind of worthless person can retire.

Yao Fen had no idea of ​​the Empress Dowager's deep thoughts. She was so overjoyed that she knelt down and kowtowed, expressing her gratitude repeatedly, as if the mansion was already in her hands.

When she came out of the Empress Dowager's room, her steps were much lighter, as if she had stepped into the palace. She winked at Chen Jikang proudly, but because of the presence of the concubine, she did not show off her achievements.

Chen Jikang was in a bad mood and had no time to think about Yao's expression.

He is different from Yao. Ever since the Empress Dowager took refuge in the Chen Mansion, his eyelids have been twitching.

You could say he was timid or short-sighted, but he had a feeling that something terrible was going to happen.

To put it bluntly, he regretted getting on board the Li family.

Yesterday, when Chen Jikang heard the Empress Dowager asking his wife and daughter to put something into the Young Master's Mansion, he did not sleep until dawn and felt uneasy.

He didn't want to harm Cen Yuan. Although he was angry at her for being so heartless and ungrateful, he had never thought of harming her.

It’s not that he is kind to Cen Yuan, but he doesn’t have much confidence in the Empress Dowager.

In fact, deep down, he trusted Cen Yuan more. He always felt that his adopted son was omnipotent and could do whatever he wanted.

For example, the snow disaster in Yucheng.

Several months before the snowstorm came, Cen Yuan had been preparing for it.

It’s as if he could predict that there would definitely be a major snowstorm in Yucheng... Would such a person be killed by the Queen Mother?

It's like when betting on big or small, he can see that the number is big, so will he still bet on small?

Cen Yuan is a mysterious person! How desperate must he be to stand on the opposite side and help others harm this powerful adopted son?

Chen Jikang regretted so much that his intestines were broken and he felt extremely uncomfortable.

He even felt that there was something weird about the kidnapping of Lu Sangyu's mother last time, the trick used to trick Lu Sangyu into running around the city, and the easy cooperation with Lu Sangyu in the end.

Of course, maybe he was thinking too much. After all, Lu Sangyu did secretly pass on the news, but Li Changfeng was too lazy to listen and suffered a great loss.

Chen Jikang was lost in thought when he heard a soft cry, "Master Chen, it's time to call for water again..."

Chen Jikang felt his whole body tense up.

Now his scalp tingles whenever he hears someone calling for water. The pot is a bit heavy, and he is too thin to carry it.

The concubine was actually the top lady in Yanyang Tower, Li Niangzi, who was extremely beautiful and had been with Li Changfeng for a long time. She was sent to work for Chen Jikang, so it was impossible for her to have any real contact with him.

But this lady Li was really fatal. She kept making long and short "ah" sounds for a long time, and the sounds like devilish sounds drilled into Chen Jikang's ears, making him feel weak all over and he wished he could leave quickly.

There were some inexperienced little girls outside, and their faces turned red when they heard this.
