Are you great sir?
Mother Xue carefully observed the expression on the face of the opposite person, but after only a while, she still couldn't see anything unusual.

After the people left, Mother Xue finally breathed a sigh of relief: The loss-making business in this building should be over soon!
When Master Ji returned home, he was met with a violent beating from his "benevolent father" as usual, but this time it was not a coincidence that the "benevolent father" fell with a stick, and for some reason, it missed and hit his leg.

Master Ji let out a scream - his leg was broken.

Now, the "filial son going out of the street" that had been going on for many days finally stopped, Mr. Ji had no way to go out again, so he could only lie down in the yard every day to raise his legs and feet.

The filial son who had been filial to him for a while also disappeared at this time, and he didn't even visit him once.Master Ji was so angry that he wanted to jump, but he had no choice but to do it, after all, his leg was broken and he couldn't jump up.

At this time, the filial son Ji Chongyan, who was very much missed by Elder Ji, was listening to the reports from his subordinates.

"The person brought back by His Royal Highness is a physiognomy Mr. Chen. I heard that he is a good one. He opened his mouth and cut it straight. It is very effective." When the subordinates said this, they paused and did not forget to add a sentence, "His Royal Highness firmly believes in him."

Whether this Mr. Physiognomy is real or a lie, no one knows.But right now it doesn't matter whether he has real ability or not. The important thing is that His Highness the Crown Prince believes in him.

"Where did this Xiangshu Mr. Chen come from?" Ji Chongyan raised his eyes and asked him.

The subordinate shook his head and said, "It's not the route recommended by the mansion, but His Royal Highness found it from outside."

This is interesting!If the person recommended by the Prince's Mansion is likely to have passed the Su family's eyes, instead of going this way, he went outside. The subordinate hesitated for a moment, and then said: "At present, His Royal Highness is hiding this matter from the Su family. , only a few of us know this old Mr. Chen personally."

Of course, from the outside, Mr. Chen looks like a fairy, and he doesn't look like a liar on the outside.But of course a liar would not write the word "liar" directly on his face, but judging from the level of brain aura of His Highness the Crown Prince, he felt that the other party was very likely to be a liar.

Ji Chongyan said "Yes", and said: "Even if His Royal Highness wants to hide from the Su family, the Su family is not easy to hide. The Su family...hasn't found this old Mr. Chen?"

The subordinates hesitated for a moment, then shook their heads and said: "The Su family seems to be very busy these days, and even the crown princess has been called by the Su family to admonish them several times. When they return home, the crown princess will only stay in her own yard It’s like, or going out to seek medical treatment with the little grandson, the prince and his wife haven’t seen each other for nearly half a month.”

Judging from the Su family's control over the Prince's Mansion for many years, it is not easy for the Prince to hide anything intentionally.But... It just so happens that the Su family seems to be focusing on other things these days, and the princess is anxious to treat the little grandson.I don't know if it's a coincidence, but the Su family's rare slack over the years actually caused His Royal Highness and Mr. Chen to take advantage of the loopholes, so that they concealed it for a while.

"Although I don't know exactly who is leading the line with His Royal Highness, but I can only go to those places when I watch His Highness's movements. Therefore, my subordinate suspects that it is very likely that someone borrowed the woman in Fengyue Field to lead him. The bridge built by the line." The subordinate said, "It's just that it's not clear which one it is."

Ji Chongyan let out a "hmm".

The subordinates thought about it, and then tentatively asked Ji Chongyan: "Your Majesty, do you want your subordinates to check on Mr. Chen?"

"For the time being, don't act rashly," Ji Chongyan thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "Let's see what Mr. Chen is doing."

Hearing the words, the subordinates immediately responded with a "yes".

"Whether physiognomy is true or false, it is nothing more than giving what it wants." Ji Chongyan paused, and lightly said, "It's not hard to guess what His Royal Highness wants in his heart."

It is not difficult to make the prince trust.

……

……

"As soon as I heard Mr. Chen's identity, I knew that Mr. Chen was a trustworthy person." Looking at the old man with white beard and hair in front of him, the prince was full of emotion, "My cousin went to Jiangnan Road last year. There was an errand in Jinling, even though it was paid for by a previous dynasty, my father didn't believe it at all, and he kept saying "demonic way", but I knew that father believed it. of."

The old Mr. Chen in front of him was dressed in a Taoist robe, with a fairy-like demeanor, glanced at the portrait that the crown prince held under his palm, which was six to seven points similar to him, and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness is born with dragon spirit, it should be Lord of all peoples. Ordinarily, there is no need for the old Taoist to take action, if the old Taoist has not watched the sky at night recently, seeing the prince's astrology covered by dark clouds, and knowing that there is a villain, the old Taoist would not have gone down the mountain to go this way."

His Royal Highness glanced at the portrait under his palm, couldn't help picking up the portrait again and looked at the old Mr. Chen in front of him, then couldn't help nodding and said: "Like! Really like! The portrait of old Mr. Chen Rang, Tai Shi Ling, in my father's royal study a hundred years ago is really like it, and one can tell that Mr. Chen Rang is a descendant of that Tai Shi Ling."

Old Mr. Chen swept the dust fly in his arms, pinched his fingers, and said with a smile: "Everything in this world has its own definite order, and it's not Chen's turn to go down the mountain to make a move. This trip!"

The crown prince was even more delighted when he heard the sentence "Emperor Xingmengchen", and said repeatedly: "Sir, you are brilliant!"

After some excuses and bragging, Mr. Chen spoke up.

"Although the demon stars of the people can't become big weapons, but the demon way is behind the scenes. If they are really called to take advantage of the emptiness, it is possible for the dove to occupy the magpie's nest for a while."

The crown prince's heart tightened when he heard this, and he hurriedly said: "I'll just say it! Ever since that wild thing from the country came, the emperor's temperament has changed drastically. A person who was originally pure-hearted and not good at women, this year The talent show has actually started. I didn’t say that, at such an age, the beautiful ladies who entered the palace are all the same age as me, and my father can really do it. It’s not me who said, if I come to the palace in the future At this age, Royal Father can't do such a thing!"

Old Mr. Chen couldn't help but twitched his brows when he heard the sentence "I can't do such a thing": Really?No one will believe this, I'm afraid that if you sit in that seat, you will do more than your father!

Of course, no matter how polite or pleasant, Mr. Chen always has to do something, otherwise, no matter how stupid the prince is, he will start to get suspicious.

"The crown prince is the lord of all peoples. If you eradicate the demon star, your majesty will wake up." Mr. Chen shook his whisk and asked the crown prince, "Does your highness have any useful people at hand?"

As soon as these words came out, a hint of embarrassment appeared on the prince's face. After a moment's pause, he sighed heavily, and said sadly: "I will tell you what Mr. Chen said. The government soldiers and the hidden guards were all handed over to my elder brother. Although my princess is demure and well-behaved like a wooden person, she is quite honest. Besides, she is my princess, I thought at the time No matter what, people are still trustworthy.”

It is not surprising that the crown prince trusts the crown princess Su's family, after all, they are both grasshoppers on the same boat, but what he has to do next is to follow what Miss Jiang Si said, and loosen the relationship between the crown prince and the Su family, which is also convenient. They acted.

Thinking in this way, he was about to speak when he heard the prince in front of him suddenly snort coldly, and began to speak: "But recently, Gucai realized that Gu was wrong. Although the princess and the Su family are honest, they still hide their secrets." Selfish."

Mr. Chen, who was sitting across from him, couldn't help but twitch his brows when he heard this remark: Before he could speak, the relationship between the prince and the Su family had actually cracked?Is this a coincidence?

Just thinking like this, I heard the prince say: "Fortunately, my Shuang'er reminded me. Although the father is not young, he is always in good health. If there is no accident, he will sit in that seat for another 30 to [-] years." Not a problem. Then, here comes the trouble."

"At that time, Gu will be as big as the current father, so what kind of emperor will he be? The actions of the Su family in recent days can't be thought that Gu doesn't know." The prince said, with that ordinary face Full of contempt, "Princess Concubine ran around looking for famous doctors with her orphaned cat-like son all day long. It happened that the father was greedy for power and refused to give up his position, if Ligu's cat son was changed to be the heir apparent, he could justifiably sit in that position for another 20 years, what a plan!"

Such "intelligent" remarks made the face of Mr. Chen on the opposite side froze.

In all fairness, this is not bad at all.According to what Miss Jiang Si said, this is what the Su family is planning. Compared with the unreliable crown prince ascending the throne, it is obviously more advantageous for the young grandson who came directly from the princess's belly to be in the Su family.

But the problem is, he should have raised the prince's point of view about the Su family's thoughts, but at this time the prince has already asked the prince to say it himself.

Although he was very surprised in his heart and didn't know who arranged that Shuang'er, but on the surface, he still wanted to continue acting.

Therefore, Mr. Chen gave a dry cough and hurriedly said: "The prince is indeed a virtuous king, and it is a blessing for the people to have such a benevolent king!"

"That's natural!" The crown prince was even more proud of Mr. Chen's praise, "I'm so clever, but usually I'm as wise as I am, and I can see the little abacus of the Su family."

"Compared to the cat's son sitting in that seat, it is naturally better to sit in that seat alone, that is the blessing of the common people." The prince disagreed, "You can let the matter of the Su family go for a while, and wait for Gu to get rid of that country evildoer later. Let the royal father wake up and beat the Su family again."

Speaking of this, the prince raised his head, looked at the old Mr. Chen in front of him, and asked, "What is the old man's plan?"

It's time to "play magic".

Old Mr. Chen squinted his eyes, pinched his fingers, and said: "Prince, don't worry. I'm a poor man watching the sky at night. In less than three days, there will be chaos from the east."

The crown prince said "Oh", he was not interested in the chaos and whether the people would suffer, but he just asked Mr. Chen directly: "What's the benefit of this chaos?"

What a "benevolent king", he didn't even ask the people a word.

Old Mr. Chen twitched the corners of his mouth, coughed, and said, "That folk demon star must be from the east!"

One sentence reminded the prince, and the prince was overjoyed immediately: "So that's the case, Gu understands!"

No, you don't understand, it's not that simple!Mr. Chen complained.It's just that he still shouted "Prince Gaoming!" on his face.

Mr. Chen heaved a sigh of relief after seeing off the overjoyed prince, and went back to report.

His surname is indeed Chen, but it has nothing to do with Chen Rang, he is just an ordinary person surnamed Chen.He was originally arranged by Mr. Jiang in the old department in the capital, and he worked with Mr. Jiang in the army.Unexpectedly, a new owner was ushered in at this time.

He didn't know what this Miss Jiang Si was capable of, but it must have some means to make Mr. Jiang specifically tell her to entrust the affairs of the capital to her.Aside from that, this method of putting on make-up and changing appearance is good, the current self is like a completely different person, and he is somewhat similar to that Taishi Ling Chen Rang a hundred years ago.

After finishing the work, Chen Tong came back to report. After recounting the conversation between himself and the prince, he couldn't help feeling: "This prince is so incompetent, it's really bad luck that he succeeds!"

"If it weren't for this, it would be really difficult for the crown prince to be a great job, so why would there be a draft?" Jiang Shaoyan said flatly, and thanked Chen Tong, "Thank you, Mr. Chen, and Mr. Chen will need to negotiate with the crown prince in the future."

When Chen Tong heard the words, he hurriedly said: "Why thank you? Mr. Jiang trusts Miss Jiang Si, and those of us in the capital are also at the mercy of Miss Jiang Si!"

Although Jiang Shaoyan and Chen Tong didn't reveal today's conversation to the outside world, the prince himself is not a person who can hide things. Chen Tong left in the morning, and at dusk, the news had already reached Ji Chongyan.

After hearing this, Ji Chongyan was silent for a moment, and then said: "What Mr. Xiangshu said, the chaos started in the east within three days, should refer to the rebellion of a commoner named Huang Tianjiao in the land of Donglu."

Although this matter has not been officially reported to the court, it does not mean that some people have known the news in advance, and even His Majesty himself should have known the news before Dong Lu's rush came.

"The drought in Donglu the year before last made the people hungry and complained a lot, and the local officials were greedy and incompetent, which aroused people's resentment." Ji Chongyan explained a few words, "If it weren't for this, His Majesty would not have punished corrupt officials since last year, and even Even heroes like the Wei family copied it afterwards."

It is not without reason that the investigation into major corruption cases has suddenly begun.

However, the people's uprising caused by public grievances was something that no one thought of.

"The majority of the world in the Great Zhou Dynasty is safe, and the people's rebellion will inevitably be suppressed." Regarding this result, most people in the court knew it well, and such an uprising of only 3 horses in one place would not change anything.

If there is anything special about this uprising...

"It is said that the leader of the rebel army known as Huang Tianjiao is a Taoist priest with a long history of family education and knowledge of geomantic omen." Ji Chongyan said. It must have something to do with it."

"The Second Folk Highness is also from the land of Donglu. It is not difficult to get this matter related to the Second Folk Highness. It depends on what the person behind the gentleman who pays three visits to the thatched cottage does." Ji Chongyan said here, After a pause, the opponent said humanely, "Let Rushuang stand still for the time being, and wait and see."

At this time, the one who suddenly attacked the prince and appeared in such a way, who is it?
