Daming: After self-explosive time travel, Lao Zhu's mentality collapsed

Chen Hairong was shocked and asked why.

Jiang Hu sighed and said: "Alas, Taoist Chen doesn't know something. Chu Ze promoted this matter in the name of promoting education and educating talents, but in fact he wanted to win over the people and consolidate his power."

"Chu Ze's move is undoubtedly to seize the surname's property, which is unjustifiable both emotionally and rationally."

Hearing this, Chen Hairong seemed to have some realization. He nodded repeatedly and asked: "Manager Jiang, then... what should we do?"

Jiang Hu smiled mysteriously and lowered his voice and said, "Daozhang Chen just needs to take some people to the elementary school construction site to cause trouble and make trouble. Let them know that the property of the common people is not something that you, a prince, can just rob at your will."

Chen Hairong hesitated when he heard that he was going to confront a prince.

When Jiang Hu saw this, he immediately said: "Don't worry, Taoist Chen. In terms of power, our master Jiang Guogong is much stronger than any other prince. Also, this is five hundred taels of silver. After the matter is completed, the Jiang family will give another one thousand taels." "

Once Chen Hairong heard that it was profitable, he had no worries.

He quickly nodded and bowed, fully agreeing.

In this way, he accidentally became the lackey of the Jiang family.

Looking back now, I really regret it.

"Hey, I, Chen Hairong, why am I so confused and do such stupid things out of nowhere? Now I'm fine. Not only have I offended the prince, I'm afraid my life may not be saved in the end."

Chen Hairong lamented in the cell, feeling very upset.

Three days later, in the early morning, Chu Ze was reviewing the memorial in the study.

Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door, and then Zhao Si hurriedly walked in.

"Prince Qi, my subordinates found out some information about the housekeeper." Zhao Si bowed respectfully and reported in a low voice.

Chu Ze looked up at him, raised his eyebrows, and put down the book in his hand.

"Oh? Tell me."

Zhao Si took a deep breath and said slowly: "In the past three days, my subordinates have sent people to inquire around. They even arranged for a few confidants to disguise themselves and sneak into the Jiang Mansion to find out the details of the housekeeper named Jiang Hu."

"Well, what next? Are there any clues?" Chu Ze looked solemn and his eyes were bright.

Zhao Si sighed and said in embarrassment: "Go back to your lord, the people sent by my subordinates will report back. There is indeed no butler named Jiang Hu in the Jiang Mansion."

"What?!" Chu Ze stood up abruptly, his face gloomy, and his whole body exuded a murderous aura.

"Did that guy use a fake name?"

Zhao Si nodded quickly and said: "The prince knows things like a god! My subordinates think so too."

"But..." Zhao Si lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "My subordinates found out that there is a housekeeper in Jiang's house, named Jiang Qian. He has a wretched appearance, a pair of triangular eyes, a thin body, and... The beard looks very similar to what Chen Hairong described. "

When Chu Ze heard this, his eyes flashed and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Jiang Qian? Haha, it seems that he is a greedy master. For money, he dares to do trouble behind his back and try to hinder the construction of the school. Do you really think that this king is easy to bully?"

Seeing this, Zhao Si asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, what should we do now? Should we..."

"In this way," Chu Ze pondered for a moment and then said slowly: "Immediately give the order and send someone to secretly monitor Jiang Qian's every move. Once you find out that he has left the Jiang Mansion, immediately take Chen Hairong to identify him."

"If Chen Hairong recognizes this person as the one who bribed him that day, we will capture him on the spot and escort him back to the government for interrogation!" "No!" Zhao Si took the order and was about to turn around and leave, but Chu Ze stopped him again. he.

"By the way, Zhao Si, you have to be extremely cautious about this matter and don't alert the enemy."

"After all, the Jiang family is a prominent family and is quite powerful in the court. We cannot act rashly. We must have conclusive evidence before we can arrest people justifiably."

Zhao Si nodded his head like a fool and said hurriedly: "My lord, don't worry, my subordinates will be careful in their work and live up to their trust!"

After that, he bowed and left.

Chu Ze watched Zhao Si leave, but his heart was filled with turbulent waves and undercurrents.

Two days later, the morning light first appeared, and the sky above Fengyang City was filled with morning glow.

Chu Ze was reviewing official documents in the study room of the mansion when he suddenly heard rapid footsteps outside the door.

Zhao Si hurried in, bowed and saluted: "Prince Qi, I have received a report from the spies that Jiang Qian has left Jiang Mansion!"

Chu Ze put down the ink pen in his hand, his eyes brightened, and he asked in a deep voice: "Oh? Where has he gone? Are there any followers around him?"

Zhao Si reported back in a low voice: "I heard from my subordinates that the man was heading to Zuixian Tower in the north of the city with two followers. Apparently he was just going to drink tea and enjoy the fragrance."

"Oh, I really enjoy it." Chu Ze sneered, and stood up and said: "Zhao Si, you immediately bring someone to escort Chen Hairong to identify him. Once confirmed, immediately take Jiang Qian and bring it back to the government for interrogation. , be sure to catch it on the spot!”

"No!" Zhao Si accepted the order and was about to retire, but Chu Ze ordered: "Remember to be cautious. We are competing with the Jiang family. If there is no conclusive evidence, we must not alert the enemy."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will obey your instructions." Zhao Si bowed again and left quickly.

Chu Ze stood up and came to the window, looking at the vast sky in the distance, with a lot of thoughts in his heart.

He thought secretly: "Is the Jiang family going to fight with me, Chu Ze? Trying to obstruct the construction of the school is simply provoking the majesty of the imperial court! Do they think that by virtue of their family status and Jiang Guogong, they can do whatever they want? Oh, it's really too much So naive.”

After a while, Zhao Si escorted Chen Hairong to the outside of Zuixian Tower.

There were spies who had been observing secretly for a long time. When they saw Zhao Si and others arriving, they rushed forward to report.

"Master Zhao, Butler Jiang is in the private room upstairs, and his subordinates have already inquired about it." The spy said in a low voice.

Zhao Si nodded and strode upstairs with Chen Hairong and several government officials.

In the elegant room on the second floor of Zuixian Tower, Jiang Qian was sitting at the Eight Immortals table, drinking tea and enjoying the scenery, leisurely and contentedly.

The two servants around him served him attentively and attentively, pouring tea and water.

"Mr. Jiang, that Chu Ze is really difficult to deal with. Regarding this matter in the school, are you afraid that someone in the court will impeach Mr. Jiang?" a follower said worriedly.

Jiang Qian waved his hands disapprovingly and said arrogantly: "They dare? A mere Chu Ze is nothing to be afraid of! Who is our Jiang family? How many ministers in the capital are hoping to join the master. As long as we unite these people, Will it not be easy to impeach Chu Ze by then? "

"This...is the same." The followers nodded repeatedly, convinced of Jiang Qian's confidence.

At this moment, there was a sudden rush of footsteps outside the door.

Then he said: There was a loud bang, and the door of the private room was pushed open from the outside! (End of chapter)
