Thus, under Su Yunjin's persuasion, Chen Jie gave this convicted man a chance. This person was somebody he knew, one of the two trump cards in Feng Xuan's hands, Si Xi from the pair Si Xi and Fa Cai.
Si Xi followed Feng Xuan because of his talk of loyalty and righteousness.
He followed Feng Xuan because of loyalty and left Feng Xuan for the same reason.
Feng Xuan's betrayal made him feel ashamed, so after Feng Xuan became the White Tiger Hall Master, he repeatedly offered advice, but in the end, he received nothing but estrangement. He was directly dismissed and never reused. Then, when Chen Jie killed Feng Xuan and was dealing with Feng Xuan's remaining faction, he was captured.
The original plan was to execute him, but at a time when talented people were needed, and with his wife's persuasion, Chen Jie ultimately decided to employ Si Xi.
However, he also assigned two trusted aides to watch him and report back on his actions at all times.
