Chapter 1083: My Own People
"Wechen is terrified." Hearing Xia Qi's words, Shen Yan's face showed a trace of embarrassment, and there was a trace of gratitude on his face a second ago, and this second suddenly became a little panicked, whether this panic was true or false, the change in Shen Yan's expression at this moment can be said to be extremely embarrassing, and it can also be called a classic.
"Shen Yan, you must be curious about what you have embarrassed me." Seeing Shen Yan's expression, the corners of Xia Qi's mouth trembled slightly, and he wanted to laugh but couldn't hold back.
"What you want is to ask me to promise you to retry the old case of the eldest princess and the horse." Xia Qi saw that the corners of Shen Yan's mouth opened slightly, and before Shen Yan could speak, a faint but confident smile appeared on the corner of Xia Qi's mouth, and said slowly.
"If that's all there is, then I won't be so blunt with you, but you have embarrassed me again and again, this is a process of continuous accumulation, as you told me before, quantitative change causes qualitative change."
"We're embarrassed." Hearing that Xia Qi used what he had said to anger himself, Shen Yan suddenly had a feeling of crying and laughing, although he already understood in his heart Xia Qi's intention to talk to him.
Xia Qi told himself that he didn't really want to blame himself and embarrass himself, but to declare a deep emotion in his heart in a unique way, and this emotion was not necessarily brought to Xia Qi, maybe it was the atmosphere of the entire court, or other aspects, in short, these emotions have been pressed in the depths of Xia Qi's heart, and the long-term accumulation has caused a certain amount of pressure on Xia Qi's psychology, if it is not vented in a proper way, it will definitely make Xia Qi feel aggrieved at the same time. It will also affect some of Xia Qi's behaviors or judgments.
It's not that Xia Qi doesn't want to vent, but he has been suffering from not having a cathartic object. Those beauties in the harem? These people Xia Qi doesn't trust very much, or in Xia Qi's mind, these people are either the cornerstone of the marriage of forces, or a platform for competing for favor or power, and if they want to have a heart-to-heart, except for the late queen, none of the concubines in the harem can chat with Xia Qi calmly.
Courtier? In Xia Qi's mind, courtiers are used to do things for him, not to pour out their hearts or vent their dissatisfaction, this is also to maintain a sense of mystery and superiority, therefore, even if Xia Qi trusts a courtier in his heart, it is impossible for him to really have a heart-to-heart and confide in the other party.
As for the attendant inner supervisor around him, or Xu Sanyuan, who has always received Xia Qi's favor letter, it is impossible for Xia Qi to really reveal his heart, not only to maintain that mysterious and lofty feeling, but more importantly, in Xia Qi's heart, the inner prison is the tool at hand, they may have the talent to gain their trust, but it is impossible to communicate with them.
As for those princes or princesses, Xia Qi also thought about making friends with their father and son or father and daughter, but in order to screen the most qualified heir from among the many princes, the relationship between father and son has dropped to the freezing point, not to mention that there is no family affection or father-son affection in the royal or imperial family. As for my favorite princess Yuhan, I thought about chatting with her when Xia Qi arrived, but there are some things that I can't say much, or maybe it's a little deeper than staying on the surface, but if I want to talk completely, whether it's in terms of experience or vision, Xia Yuhan doesn't have such qualifications.
It can be said that excluding all the people around him, Xia Qi has not been able to find a suitable person to talk to and chat, if you have to say that one person is suitable, then this person is Shen Yan, who has been standing in the hall with a slightly embarrassed expression.
This is not to say that Shen Yan is more intimate than others, but the impression that Shen Yan left on Xia Qi Although he sometimes felt a headache, the deepest impression was that Shen Yan was wholeheartedly doing things for Xia Qi, don't look at this impression is not very obvious, but in Xia Qi's heart, this impression makes him feel that Shen Yan is his own person. A person of one's own does not represent anything, but in Xia Qi's mind, even those princes of his own do not meet the standards of his own people, so you can imagine what kind of influence and significance this own person has on Xia Qi.
In addition, every time Shen Yan played right, he won the emperor's heart, and every time he said something that Xia Qi needed in his heart, it made Xia Qi feel comfortable. It's not that other people can't say what Xia Qi wants, but that other people have too much calculation when they play the right game, whether their own remarks will be satisfied by Xia Qi, if these remarks become true, then who will implement them, or who will get what benefits they get from this suggestion, or which families will block these suggestions and become nothing, and so on. It is precisely because these people have more calculations and less sincerity that Shen Yan's loyalty and innocence are revealed.
It can be said that with a sharp contrast between these people, Shen Yan's image of his own person will become more and more important, and the combination of these factors makes Xia Qi unconsciously have a subtle trust in Shen Yan, which is why some of the suggestions that Shen Yan sometimes puts forward make Xia Qi feel a headache, and even intellectually should be rejected, but the result is often that Xia Qi made a compromise, which is an incredible thing for an emperor, but for a lonely old man, Again, this is a logical consequence.
On the other hand, if there are only a few of the other people who can achieve a very similar state to Shen Yan, it will not form the current situation of Shen Yan's exclusive favor.
With Shen Yan doing so many things in such a short time, as long as someone has a heart, he will definitely be able to find some of Shen Yan's shortcomings and give a fatal attack, but no matter what kind of attack, as long as it is in front of Xia Qi, even if it stops, not to mention that Xia Qi gave Shen Yan so many official positions, these powers are gathered in the hands of one person, it is easy to cause the risk of the ministers, doesn't Xia Qi know the harm of this? Obviously, Xia Qi knows very well in his heart, but compared to this harm, Xia Qi believes that Shen Yan will not choose to do this, just like what Xia Qi said, even if Shen Yan is a hero, Xia Qi dares to use it and is more assured to use it, and this is the good situation brought by Shen Yan as his own person.
Maybe Shen Yan understood how to play right with Xia Qi early on, so as to cause the formation of this situation, this is not to say that Shen Yan is smart, but Shen Yan analyzes the mentality of an elderly person from the perspective of human nature, and it is this analysis that makes Shen Yan one step ahead, becoming his own person around Xia Qi, and becoming a favorite and courtier in the eyes of others.
Similarly, Shen Yan also told Xia Yuanxu that if he wants to get more recognition from Xia Qi, he must pursue the strategy of fighting for not fighting and not fighting, in other words, he must be different from other princes who are qualified to win the heir, so that he can really get Xia Qi's approval, and even reach the realm of his own person like Shen Yan, so as to get the desired goal.
