After stealing the divorce book, Princess Salted Fish fell off her horse

Chapter 704 Training the Wolf King

Chu Jingxian stretched out an index finger and shook it: "No, no, I haven't finished my words yet!"

Chu Chengye said patiently, "Say it!"

Chu Jingxian said: "I reckon, maybe the fourth brother is lying, maybe he isn't lying. If he lied, then this person belongs to him; if he doesn't lie, then this person belongs to Brother Dahuang! "

"Nonsense, you're not my king's man!"

"Brother Emperor, you didn't even take a look at it, how do you know it's not yours?"

"This king has never sent anyone. Of course it is not my king's person. This king has always supported the seventh brother. How could he stab a knife in the back?"

"That's not what you said!" Chu Jingxian looked at Chu Chengye probingly, and analyzed: "Brother Da Huang and Brother Si Huang both want to receive Xitang's envoy, if something goes wrong on the way, Then this person will choose the father emperor again! So the eldest brother is suspected, and the fourth brother is also suspected!"

Chu Chengye's face darkened slightly: "Seventh brother, it's not kind of you to say that. It's without proof, wouldn't it make me, the eldest brother, feel cold when you say that?"

Chu Jingxian reached out and patted him on the shoulder. This simple action scared the guards behind him so much that they put their hands on the hilt of their swords.

But Chu Jingxian just made casual gestures to show intimacy, and he said kindly: "Brother Dahuang, there is nothing wrong between us brothers! I won't talk about anything else. I just ask you, and throw it in front of your house." People, count this one today, how many is it?"

Chu Chengye frowned and said, "The seventh one!"

Then he said even more displeasedly: "Seventh brother, this man is bloody, you just threw it in front of the king's mansion, and you threw one after another! For the sake of brotherhood, I didn't care about it with you, did I? Now you are suspicious I, don't you think it's easy to bully my brother?"

"Brother Dahuang is wrong, isn't it me who is the most bullied prince in the entire imperial city?" Chu Jingxian said leisurely: "Brother Dahuang refuses to admit it, and this king also understands, after all, no thief would Admit that you are a thief!"

Chu Chengye got up abruptly, and said in a panic: "Old Qi, you are going too far! Did you come to my palace to humiliate me?"

Chu Jingxian smiled and said, "Look, you're in a hurry!"

He put away his smiling face, and the old god said authentically: "Brother Dahuang, in fact, who is this person and what is going on, we all know it well! But I am a good-tempered person, and I think that fighting for loyalty It's boring, and the real victory is also meaningless. There is nothing that can't be measured by real gold and silver! Brother Da Huang won't think that I really have no evidence, will he? Nor will Brother Si Huang think that when I have no evidence, he is willing to give out [-] yuan Will you give me the money? If the eldest brother is the fourth brother, will you give it to me with empty words? Not only will you not give it, but you will also sue me for framing, disregarding brotherhood, no brotherhood, The crime of holding a chicken feather as an arrow!"

Chu Chengye remained silent.

At this time, he looked at Chu Jingxian with a calm and relaxed face, and his heart was full of fear and guard.

He weighed the matter quickly in his mind and felt that the reason was this. If he had no evidence, he would definitely not give it. The fourth child would bite three points if he was unreasonable. Asking him for money is like cutting his flesh.

Therefore, Lao Qi really has evidence.

But no, if he really had evidence, why did he go to the fourth child directly?Once handed over to the father, the father will be able to repair the fourth child clearly.

Suspicion arose in Chu Chengye's heart, but nothing could be seen on Chu Jingxian's cynical face.

He couldn't help looking at Fang Zhaoyu.

Fang Zhaoyue was expressionless, like an old monk in meditation.

Chu Chengye became uncertain again, this is a first-rank official, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, even if the old seven messes around, he can't follow the old seven to mess around!

He said: "Lord Fang, the matter of welcoming envoys from other countries is related to the state system, the seventh is young, and it is the first time to take on such an important task. You have to be more careful about this envoy!"

Fang Zhaoyu cupped his hands and said, "His Royal Highness King Jing speaks seriously. Although His Royal Highness Seventh Prince is young, he acts with restraint, speaks with substance, and manages well. The veterans also admire him!"

The darkness in the depths of Chu Chengye's eyes flashed past.

Have something to say?Proper?

Is this Master Fang's reply after he understood his hint?

So this is true?
He quickly went through it in his mind and thought, even though there was evidence before, the matter is over.

But this time, the person does not belong to him, even if he has evidence, it cannot be blamed on him!

Chu Jingxian grinned: "It doesn't matter if the elder brother takes the money or not. After all, supporting the younger brother's errand must be voluntary. Otherwise, if the emperor asks about it, he will reprimand me for being naughty. If my salary is fined, why would I cry?" go?"

Chu Chengye twitched the corners of his mouth, forced a smile, and said, "Seventh brother, although my brother has a lot of money, please believe that my brother's love for you is no worse than that of the fourth brother!"

Chu Jingxian said with a smile: "This king certainly believes it!" He said again: "Brother Dahuang, do you think that this king threw people in front of your house and that of the four brothers, did Father know?"

Chu Chengye: "..."

At this time, he suspected that every sentence Chu Jingxian said was a trap, so he had to think about it first before saying: "Father is wise and wise, so he knows it."

After all, Lao Qi made such a big fanfare that few people in the capital don't know about it, let alone the father?

Chu Jingxian moved closer, with a smirk on his face, but the words he said were earth-shattering, and he said, "Then guess, father, do you know that the person this king threw in front of your house is yours?"

Chu Chengye was shocked, and changed his expression: "Lao Qi, you can't talk nonsense! You threw someone in front of the mansion before, and this king asked you, what did you say? Why did you change the topic now? How did it become so? Is this the king's person?"

Chu Jingxian leisurely: "Brother Da Huang said that is meaningless. Who is it, and why is this king thrown there? Brother Da Huang, don't you know? When I am willing to pretend to be confused, everyone will pretend to be confused together. I don't want to now. Pretending to be confused, Big Brother, don’t do this with me!”

Chu Chengye suddenly changed color: "What do you mean? Do you still want to frame this king?"

Chu Jingxian laughed. He changed to a comfortable position and sat down. He was out of shape, and said leisurely: "It doesn't matter who is framed or not, and it doesn't matter who it is. Brother Dahuang and Brother Sihuang dare not Didn't you know that as long as you didn't do it blatantly, your father wouldn't care about it? Because your father is training wolves among you, whether the wolf king is you or the fourth brother, it's not your father, but your own. Means, and the emperor is obviously watching the changes!"

"what do you mean?"

"Don't you understand what I mean?" Chu Jingxian said with a smile: "The princes of all dynasties in the Eastern Xia Dynasty have either established a heir or an elder. You and the elder brothers of the four emperors do not occupy the heir, and the son does not occupy the elder. Decisive. But the father is wise and wise. Of course he hopes that the prince he chooses, the prince, and the next king will be a hero with great talent and strategy. .You and Brother Four, whoever wins, wins!"

Chu Chengye: "..."

He looked at Chu Jingxian with the eyes of a fool, how dare he say this?
Fang Zhaoyue wished he could disappear in place, let him be deaf and blind!
Is this what he can hear?

He is just a mediocre minister of the Ministry of Rites, can he listen to the disputes between the princes, especially the dispute over the heir apparent?
His Royal Highness Seventh is really too young to dare to say anything.

Although no one among the courtiers had thought about what he said, whether it was the first prince's faction, the fourth prince's faction, or the neutral faction, everyone was watching!
But there are some things, even if everyone knows them, can they be said on the stage?

He hurriedly stood up, repeating the old trick: "Your Highness, when the old minister came here, he saw the flowers blooming very well outside. The old minister wants to go to enjoy the flowers, I wonder if it is possible?"

Chu Chengye waved his hand, this Fang Shangshu really didn't have any sense of existence, he even forgot just now that there was such a person.He said: "You go!"

Fang Zhaoyu hurriedly said: "Thank you, Your Highness, thank you, Your Highness!"

He hurriedly got up and walked out, rather than walking, it was more like a trot, as if there was a vicious dog chasing after him, the little old man's movements were as fast as a rabbit.

Fang Zhaoyu left, and Chu Chengye stopped holding it, and looked at Chu Jingxian.

Before Chu Jingxian finished, he continued: "Do you know why this king just throws people in front of your mansion, but doesn't report to father? Because this king knows, father won't care about it!"

Chu Chengye was not sure at first, but after Mr. Xue suggested it, he also felt that this was the reason.Since the father is training the wolves, all the private methods are allowed by the father.

This is why he dared to send one person after another.

It is not only a temptation, but also really wants to destroy!

Chu Chengye sneered and said, "So?"

"So, this king is very curious. You said that one wolf can beat two wolves?" The old god Chu Jingxian was there.

"What do you mean?" Chu Chengye's eyes sank, and there was a stern look in his eyes.

Chu Jingxian smiled leisurely, picked up the tea bowl, took a sip of the floating leaves in a leisurely manner, and then said leisurely: "Although it is a battle between two wolves, I am not doing my job properly, I have no skills or abilities, only drinking and gambling If you help one of the wolves, do you think the other will win?"

"You want to help the fourth child?"

Chu Jingxian grinned: "Because the fourth brother helped me, 10 taels of silver is not a small amount, and the fourth brother is so generous, does it mean that I owe him a favor? Since I owe a favor, I must pay it back. He is just a matter of raising his hands, why don't I do it?"

Chu Chengye's face was gloomy, as if the sky was about to rain, layers of oppression felt directly pressing on Chu Jingxian.

Chu Jingxian was unmoved, he even took another sip of tea, and said leisurely: "The tea at Brother Dahuang's house is really good tea!"

Chu Chengye squeezed each word out from between his teeth: "Are you a threat?"

"See what you said!" Chu Jingxian smiled lightly, put down the tea bowl, looked at Chu Chengye seriously, and said, "Brother Dahuang, I have a good temper, but it's also very bad. For me, I will take care of it myself! I know all the little tricks of anyone rubbing behind their backs. It’s too early to ignore it, but now that I understand it, no one can perfuse me. After all, barefoot is not afraid The one who wears shoes, Big Brother, are you right?"

"So what do you want?"

Chu Chengye couldn't see his smiling face at this time, he just felt that his smile was like hiding a knife in his smile.

Chu Jingxian said indifferently: "Not at all! I love to play since I was a child. Honey is my arsenic. The trouble is that I don't want to do it, but it doesn't mean I can't do it. It depends on the elder brother and the four emperors." Brother's attitude! After all, I may not be able to help you if you are busy, but I am very good at disturbing a pool of spring water! Now it seems that Brother Sihuang has a good attitude, and the money is very straightforward."

Chu Chengye felt that he was being manipulated, but he had to ask again: "So you just want money?"

Chu Jingxian stretched out a finger and shook it: "First, contact the relationship between brothers, although this relationship can indeed be measured in silver; second, to remind you, since this job has been entrusted to me, No matter how much trouble you make, it won't fall back into your hands, so why waste time doing useless work here?"

Chu Chengye: "..."

He suddenly realized one thing, what Lao Qi said made sense, the errand had already been handed over to Lao Qi, even if he and Lao Si made trouble, maybe the job could fall into his own hands, but it might also fall into the hands of the other party superior.

The reason why he sent people to destroy it in the first place was that he was not angry that he was bound to win, and was easily picked up by Lao Qi.

Why is he so important to the father of a person who sleeps in the court?

But now that I think about it, the direction towards Lao Qi was all wrong.His opponent was never the seventh child, but the fourth child!After all, even if Lao Qi has any thoughts, he is nothing to be afraid of. A dude has no backup in the palace, no support in the court, and no prestige among the people!

Mr. Xue has reminded him three times, and he insisted on going his own way because he couldn't swallow this breath.

Now, even Chu Jingxian could see it, and he would not admit that he had lost his head for a while.

Chu Chengye said: "Do you really want to help the fourth child?"

Chu Jingxian smiled and said, "Brother Dahuang, you can't just listen to half of what you say. I just made it clear that Brother Sihuang donated 10 taels of silver to me, and I owe him a favor. , now only Brother Sihuang is so generous and willing to help me, if he wants to deal with you, I have to give him a few words, this is returning favors, don't you think?"

Chu Chengye was so angry that he was dying, but his face softened a little, showing a pleasant expression, and said, "What did the seventh brother say? Since he is a brother, how could he see that the seventh brother is not rich and not help? Since the fourth brother I paid 10 taels, and this king, the big brother, also gave 10 taels!"

"Brother Dahuang, don't force it. This will use the dowry of the great emperor's wife. It's hard to hear if it is said. If it gets to the ears of the envoys of the Western Tang Dynasty, I will use the dowry of a woman in Dongxia to welcome an envoy from another country. Wouldn't it make people laugh out loud?"

Chu Chengye: "..."

Why is this so familiar?

Chu Chengye realized, isn't that what he said a while ago?
