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

After driving the eighth prince out of the capital, the emperor's spirit has deteriorated a lot.

He sighed and said to Chu Chaoyang: "Yang'er, am I getting old? Your eighth brother committed such a thing, even if he died, it would be unforgivable, but I'm so soft!"

Chu Chaoyang supported him, and said, "Father, you are a benevolent king and a kind father. You think of the love of father and son for Brother Eight Emperor. I hope Brother Eight Emperor can appreciate your kindness, Father Emperor, and wash your heart from now on." Revolution, spend the rest of your life repenting for his mistakes!"

The emperor sighed lightly.

He was old and didn't want to see his sons die, so Chu Yuntai shouldn't have survived, but he still couldn't bear to do it.

Chu Chaoyang stayed with the emperor for a long time, comforting his father's emotions. He didn't leave the palace until the emperor was sleepy and went to rest in the bedroom.

The death of Chu Chengye made the whole atmosphere in the capital depressed, and the only one who was not affected was probably Concubine Zhong.

The fourteenth prince could already laugh, and Concubine Zhong became more and more charming.

The emperor doesn't go to the harem very much anymore, he is getting older, although the little new life of the fourteenth prince can give him a little more vitality in his twilight years, but after all, he lacks energy.

Chu Chaoyang returned to the Ninth Prince's Mansion and summoned his colleagues for a meeting.

Now Chu Chaoyang can listen to the opinions and suggestions put forward by his followers.

For example, at Chu Chengye's funeral this time, the Ninth Prince participated in the whole process, fulfilling his duty as a younger brother.Who in the capital does not say that the Ninth Prince cares about the brotherhood, is lenient and sensitive?
However, at the moment in the study, putting aside those disguises, he is the noble prince who is about to be the crown prince.

He said: "Have all the tails been cleaned up?"

Mu Liao said together: "Returning to Your Highness, all traces have been erased, and the Eighth Prince has been driven out of the capital. Even if he can find clues, he can't enter the capital, let alone face the saint. This matter is buried in the dust. There will never be any more disturbances!"

Chu Chaoyang hooked his lips, showing a faint sneer, and said, "Very good!"

Mu Liao said: "Your Highness, if you cut the grass without removing the roots, it will regenerate when the spring breeze blows. Look, at Chu Yuntai..."

Chu Chaoyang smiled contemptuously, and said, "It's just a commoner, so what if we keep him alive?"

That's right, Chu Chengye's whole family died on the way to the feudal clan. On the surface, it seemed that Chu Yuntai did it.

In fact, it was indeed Chu Yuntai who had malicious thoughts.However, with Chu Yuntai's ability, there is really no way to do it so cleanly.

Chu Chaoyang, who intervened in the middle, but picked himself clean, was very satisfied with the result.

Chu Chengye wanted to leave the capital by taking advantage of the vassal, so that he could attack when he advanced, and defend when he retreated?

It also depends on whether he agrees or not.

Since Dong Xia's world is his, how can he allow those who covet his world to leave safely?After all, although Chu Chengye left, he did not take all the power in the capital with him.

Instead of letting those hidden forces become a stumbling block one day, it is better to solve this matter directly and fundamentally.

No matter how many backhands he has, and no matter how many hidden powers he has, they are still in the capital, waiting for him to make a comeback.

As long as Chu Chengye died, these things would no longer matter.

This is the real bottom line.

In this whole incident, he got rid of the eldest prince and the eighth prince, and he himself, not only did not touch himself, but also gained a reputation of being kind, sensitive and filial.

That's what makes him great.

The Mu Liao he raised can take care of everything for him, and that's what he values ​​them most.

Chu Chaoyang said: "There are still a few days before the canonization. During this time, everyone cheers up. There must be no mistakes in this process!"

Mu Liao said three times: "Your Highness, now the people in the capital who may become His Highness's resistance have basically been eliminated. How will the third and fifth princes be dealt with?"

Chu Chaoyang said: "What happened between the two of them?"

Mu Liao said four times: "There is no change. The third prince closed the mansion to thank the guests. The fifth prince went to Jingjiwei to be on duty every day, and then went back to Liang Wang's mansion. He has never been to other places."

"Since they are sensible, don't pay attention to them for now." Chu Chaoyang said: "By the way, hold a banquet for His Highness at the Qingwu Pavilion. His Highness has something to talk to Mr. Dongfang!"

"Yes!"

In the past, Qingwuxuan was the property of Zhuang Guogong Wei's family, but after the Wei family was confiscated, Qingwuxuan changed hands.On the basis of the original, many special and fun measures have been added, which are elegant and interesting. Not only has the business not been affected, but it has become better.

In the afternoon, Chu Chaoyang met Dongfang Moye in Qingwu Pavilion.

Dongfang Moye brought a gift to Chu Chaoyang.

A piece of jadeite cabbage carved from a single piece of jade with exquisite craftsmanship.

What is rare is such a large piece of jade, the lower part is white and smooth, and the upper part is emerald green. The carved cabbage is lifelike and warm to the touch.

Chu Chaoyang smiled and said, "Mr. Dongfang will spend the money."

Dongfang Moye smiled slightly, and said: "Your Highness is about to become rich all over the world, this Dongxia belongs to His Highness, this small gift is just a small thing for His Highness to enjoy, it is not worth mentioning!"

Chu Chaoyang said: "Mr. Dongfang is deeply in the heart of my prince. What you said last time, my prince has already figured it out for you. Who is better than you as an imperial merchant in the capital?"

It's not that he wants Dongfang Moye to be an imperial merchant just because of this emerald cabbage, but he knows that a prince of the Eastern Palace actually has great limitations, after all, there is an emperor above him.

Therefore, he needs to have his own money bag.

Of course, it is best to put the money bag in the household department, but Shi Minwei of the household department is only loyal to the emperor, and the servant of the household department is neutral, so he can't get in for a while.

That being the case, he cultivated his pocketbook outside.

With money, you can do many things.

Chu Chaoyang has done a good job in the balance of the court, the balance between officials, and the balance with his father.

From this point of view, the emperor's cultivation of him was still very successful.

At a young age, he is cruel and cunning, knows how to use people well and understands Zhang Chi.

In this regard, Chu Chengye and Chu Yuncheng were far inferior to him.

Dongfang Moye said: "His Royal Highness will not give up, and I will do my best for His Highness' great cause!" He took out a stack of papers from his arms, handed it over and said: "This is the news that the people below have inquired about, please have a look at it !"

The time for the crown prince's canonization is getting closer. Although Chu Chaoyang feels that there is nothing missing in his arrangement, he has to make sure that nothing goes wrong, so he does not slack in collecting information from various sources.

In the meantime, the news brought by the money bag Dongfang Moye is news from outside the government and the public, and he also attaches great importance to it.

Seeing the content on the paper, Chu Chaoyang's expression turned ugly.

Chu Chengye is dead, but he still has an army?
This army actually wants to destroy his canonization ceremony?

Chu Chaoyang said: "My prince knows!" He said again: "By the way, sir, where is the batch of goods that were going to be transported to the capital last time?"

Dongfang Moye said: "Going back to Your Highness, we are almost at Linzhou. However, the people below are just ordinary porters after all. They have been exploited a lot along the way, and there are bandits blocking the way, which is quite a loss. This time I have already dispatched other people to respond, but I will not miss the matter of His Highness!"

"Very good!" Chu Chaoyang took out a token and handed it to Dongfang Moye: "With this token, sir can do things cheaply!"

"Thank you, Your Highness, I am determined not to disgrace my mission!" The golden dragon and jade plaque representing the identity of the prince, I did not expect Chu Chaoyang to have it.

You know, when the emperor ascended the throne, he prepared a three-faced and four-clawed golden dragon and jade plaque, thinking that the emperor's heir's belongings would be known all over the world.

This jade tablet is engraved with a four-clawed golden dragon, representing supreme power and status.

There are many princes, not every prince has the opportunity to get this jade medal.

At the beginning, the second prince Chu Chengyou once got a piece of jade, but after his death, the jade tablet was taken back.Even the eldest son Chu Yuncheng and the eldest son Chu Chengye never got it.

As time passed, many people have forgotten the legend of the Golden Dragon Jade Tablet.

Now, not only did Chu Chaoyang have it, but he also gave the jade plaque to Dongfang Moye without hesitation, letting him do things cheaply.

Dongfang Moye smiled, he likes dealing with such a prince.

Conceited and smart, but in fact arrogant and stupid.

Chu Chaoyang said very familiarly: "This Qingwu Pavilion is indeed a good place. There are rumors in the capital that 'Qingwu is beautiful, and the Changshan vacation is better than the gods'. The owner behind this Qingwu Pavilion is also Mr. Dongfang you?"

Dongfang Moye said with a smile: "Your Highness thinks highly of me, I have done some business, but I am actually a newcomer in this capital area. This Qingwu Pavilion, when Duke Zhuang Guo ransacked his family and wiped out his family, I really thought about it." Take it down, but the financial resources do not allow it, and the means are slightly inferior, so I missed it!"

Chu Chaoyang said with a smile: "Don't worry, if Mister Dongfang is interested, in the future, my prince will make Qingwu admire you, and Changshan Resort will be all in your pocket!"

Dongfang Moye raised his glass, overjoyed and said: "It is my honor to be valued so highly by His Highness. I will devote myself to His Highness's great cause, and I will die!"

Chu Chaoyang was delighted to hear this, and said: "It's enough for you to put more effort into my prince's affairs, and you don't have to devote yourself to dying. I will treat people who follow me, let alone die!"

"Your Highness is truly a benevolent Lord!"

Dongfang Moye's speech is elegant and high-spirited, and Chu Chaoyang is also a great Confucian teacher personally selected by the emperor, and he is well versed in the art of emperors, and the two chatted very happily.

Dongfang Moye invited the most beautiful and elegant musicians from Qingwuxuan to perform songs and dances for Chu Chaoyang.

The musical performer was also carefully cultivated, usually one song would cost a thousand gold, in Qing Wu Xuan, it has already surpassed that Caiwei, and is the new top card.

She is young and beautiful, and compared to those ladies from all over the world, she is a bit more charming, knowledgeable and interesting.

Chu Chaoyang, the new upstart prince, felt refreshed.

Dongfang Moye said: "Ninth Young Master, this Lingqing girl is well-educated, and she is skilled in everything from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she is quite elegant..." He lowered his voice, and said: "More importantly, this is a Qing girl. Wife, as long as His Highness is happy, it doesn't matter if you stay overnight. I will take care of it properly for His Highness!"

As soon as Chu Chaoyang raised his eyes, he saw Ling Qing's eyes that were as bright as water, but his whole body had a cool and quiet aura. He had seen many women, and his father also said that when he was registered as the prince, he would give him a gift. Marriage princess.

But at the last banquet, he saw those ladies from all over the world, or they were dull as if they came out of the same mold, or they boasted that they were talented and pretended to be noble, or they had average looks and were inexplicably confident...

In short, he only glanced at it and felt that it was all boring.

At this moment, Miss Lingqing's dance is as soft as a willow brush, her body is light, her eyes are clearly not seductive, and there is still a coldness, but it is like a hook that can hook people's souls.

He waved: "Come here!"

Ling Qing approached slowly, and poured wine for him with a pot.

He boldly stretched out his arms, trapping the soft waist.

Ling Qing's eyes were a little flustered, she smiled, and slid over like a snake, soft and charming: "My lord, please have a drink!"

Chu Chaoyang was overjoyed and drank the wine in one gulp. This time, he wrapped his arms around Lingqing again and could not escape. Her eyes were as clean and innocent as a deer, as clear as water.

Chu Chaoyang unconsciously took a sip of the shattered noodles.

Ling Qing's face was flushed, and Chu Chaoyang found it even more interesting with her helpless, anxious and shy look.

He is already 17 years old, and he can enjoy the pleasure of fish and water long ago. Since this is a Qingyuan, so what if he enjoys it?

Anyway, Mr. Dongfang will arrange everything properly, and he can even bring him back to the Ninth Prince's Mansion directly from Qingwuxuan.

Therefore, today's Chu Chaoyang indulged his senses and fell into lust with Miss Lingqing.

On the other side, Dongfang Moye put down a thick stack of banknotes for the director of Qingwuxuan, and said, "Redemption for Miss Lingqing!"

The director of Qingwuxuan widened his eyes and said: "Miss Lingqing is a showman but not a woman! To redeem her body, she has to be willing."

Not only this Lingqing girl, but all the girls in Qingwuxuan can perform their arts without selling their bodies. Their bodies are their own decisions.Therefore, Lingqing can still maintain her innocence after being here for a year.

Even if some dandies or high-ranking officials want to bully others, they dare not, because someone will teach them to be human!
Dongfang Moye smiled lightly, and said: "Of course, I understand the rules of Qingwuxuan, and I will not violate them. And as far as I know, there are several people like Miss Lingqing in Qingwuxuan. Miss Lingqing Only after leaving, other girls can come forward, this is the best result for Yu Qingwuxuan and for the guests. Isn't it?"

The director of Qingwuxuan still said: "Although Qingwuxuan's business is based on the talents of these girls, the owner has promised the girls that they can choose independently. Therefore, what the guests say doesn't count, it has to be the girls themselves. It’s just fine. Please forgive me for this point!”

Dongfang Moye was not angry at all, and said: "Naturally, the distinguished guest accompanied by Miss Lingqing today is also a young man with a suave manner. Miss Lingqing must have already been tempted. If she doesn't refuse to sacrifice herself, then she is voluntary." ? The young master is going to redeem Miss Lingqing, surely Qing Wuxuan will not stop him, right?"

The director of Qingwuxuan nodded lightly, and said: "I will send someone to ask Miss Lingqing's maid!"

I wish all the students of the college entrance examination a successful start, success in no time, and a bright future!
