Ms. Doctor Divine

Chapter 1024: More Words

Chu Tian was very surprised and shocked, knowing that such a young man could come up with such a simple and yet effective plan within such a short while.

Therefore, at this moment, he appreciated Junyi a lot.

Chu Tian rarely appreciated people, so it was rare for Junyi to become one of them.

Chu Tian looked at Junyi and showed a look of pitifulness. “You are smart, and talented, unfortunately, you are just the Heir’s Officer.”

Junyi was startled. He could not fathom what Chu Tian meant.

It was true that he was the Heir’s Officer, which was not a high position, but he was a strategist, and was trusted by the Heir. The Heir did not have any teacher, so he should be the one that took over the position as the imperial strategist when the Heir took the throne in the future. Why was Prime Minister Chu saying that it was an unfortunate thing?

Could it have been because he did not think highly of the Heir?

Well, if that was the case, Junyi would not mind. Instead, he continued. “Prime Minister Chu, I feel very happy to be appreciated by you, but I am still happy that I am working for the Heir as his Officer, since it is worth the while. I think that the Heir is someone I can devote myself to, he is a man with justice who cherishes talents, and he treats me as his own. I am talented, yes, and I am working for the Heir, but he is the one that I think is the most worthwhile to serve.”

Junyi tried to come up with all he could to praise the Heir subtly.

He was not only expressing how loyal he was, but also told Prime Minister Chu that he could take the Heir’s side. That the Heir was worth their support.

Hearing what he had said, Chu Tian could not help his expression sinking. He was a talented person, but a man needed to know which side he should take, despite his talent.

......

He was way too short-sighted. He could not see things far into the future. A man like this, despite his talent, was not going to reach any success in his life.

Chu Tian shook his head and felt a bit disappointed.

The excitement he had just felt was now fading away.

He held his hands behind his back, and regained his serious tone, saying as he walked. “It is good that a strategist works devotedly for his master.”

“…”

“Your suggestion is good, and that is something we can possibly do at the moment. We will do as you have suggested. My men and the Heir’s men should be able to finish the task, together with the officers from Li County. It should take no more than a couple of days. So yes, we will take your solution.”

Junyi looked very disappointed.

Prime Minister Chu was going to adopt his solution, which was confirmed by him the moment he showed the look of appreciation. So he had never worried about this. However, what he cared about the most was whether Prime Minister Chu was going to take the Heir’s side.

It seemed that Prime Minister Chu had avoided going deeper into this topic and had decided not to continue with this conversation.

Junyi sighed. He felt very disappointed about what happened.

“Come to my side. I have a few words to share with you.” Prime Minister Chu said, without noticing Junyi’s absent-minded look.
