Chapter 288
Xiangfu.

Ji Tai was not lying on the bed.

Instead, it sits in a study that has just been built.

The door of the study room was closed tightly, and there were two wrestlers holding knives guarding both sides of the door.

There were three people in the study, and the atmosphere was very solemn.

Ji Tai sat at the main seat, opposite him was an old man in a black robe and a black face scarf.

On the side is the old man sitting in a wheelchair wearing exactly the same black robe and not covering his face.

Ji Tai's eyes fell on the face of the masked old man opposite, and asked, "How?"

"Fight!"

Ji Tai frowned, "When will we fight?"

"Just today!"

Ji Tai was startled, then heard the masked old man on the opposite side say again: "What the old man said is not fighting!"

"It's very easy to solve Li Chen'an!"

Ji Tai was taken aback again, "Mister, please speak clearly!"

"At this time, from above the temple to the streets of the capital, Li Chen'an is the subject of discussion!"

"This is extremely detrimental to the Prime Minister, but it is of great benefit to Li Chenan's reputation. Therefore, the first thing the Prime Minister must do now is to take everyone's attention away from Li Chenan."

"Use another big event to attract everyone's attention, and downplay the influence of Li Chenan."

"This is to cut its power!"

Ji Tai stroked his long beard and thought for three breaths, and asked doubtfully, "May I ask you, what could be more eye-catching than him scolding the old man until he vomited blood for three liters at the court meeting?"

The masked old man smiled sadly: "Master Xiang is a fan of the authorities!"

"Isn't there a major event that can shock the world right now?"

"This fall, Jiangnan's taxes and grains have arrived at Shuangjiao Lake, and the tax and grains have been robbed...is this a bigger matter!"

Ji Tai was shocked immediately, this is of course a big deal, but...

"The emperor is in the palace!"

"It's because the emperor is in the palace. Think about it, my lord. When the emperor hears about this, he must be furious."

"As soon as the emperor gets angry, he will definitely let Changsun Jinghong send the Imperial City Secretary down to arrest the bandits!"

"Back then, Empress Lu planted the big-leaf banyan tree in the Imperial City Division, and grandson Jinghong guarded it for 20 years. Now he has guarded Li Chen'an, who will succeed the Imperial City Division."

"Eldest Sun Jinghong is well aware of the Shuangjiao Lake robbery of food."

"Originally, Changsun Jinghong planned to send MI[-] to Shilipo to help the food delivery team, but he changed his mind in the end, and instead assisted Li Chen'an in destroying the headquarters of the Ichthyosaur Society..."

"Now that the old man thinks about it, Changsun Jinghong's move is probably to kill two birds with one stone!"

Ji Tai leaned over and asked, "How do you say that?"

"First, destroying the headquarters of the Ichthyosaur Society, destroying Xiangye's hard work, and gaining Li Chen'an's trust in him!"

"Secondly, keep the fact that the Shuangjiao Lake water bandits robbed food!"

"Li Chen'an was appointed by the emperor as the vice-president of the Imperial City Department. This must have been a suggestion from Changsun Jinghong to the emperor."

"Don't look at Changsun Jinghong sleeping under the crooked neck tree of the Imperial City Division every day, his brain never stops for a moment!"

"Li Chen'an successfully became the vice-president of the Imperial City Department, then wiped out the water bandits in Shuangjiao Lake, recovered the tax and food for that day's food and sent it back to the capital...Master, think about it, what a great contribution this is!"

The masked old man suddenly reached out and knocked on the table, making an aggressive voice:

"Li Chen'an has made such a great achievement, in the emperor's heart, he is the real eldest son of the emperor who is both civil and military, courageous and resourceful!"

"With this foreshadowing, Li Chen'an's entry into the East Palace will definitely become a set pattern!"

"This is what Changsun Jinghong wants!"

"In the future, when Li Chen'an ascends the throne and becomes emperor, Zhaohua's three-year old account will be overturned..."

The masked old man also leaned over: "The Huanhuaxi, I'm afraid it will be dyed redder!"

Ji Tai was startled suddenly, and asked after a while: "But, in the 300 years of the Ning Kingdom, there is no precedent for a prince who has been in charge of the Imperial City Department to become emperor!"

The masked old man sneered: "What is the precedent?"

"If Li Chen'an ascends the throne as the emperor, he will be a precedent! Does Xiangye dare to bet?"

Ji Tai took a deep breath, "But in this way, the old man won't say anything about losing the fish and dragon, and losing the two-year-old food in Shuangjiao Lake... This price is too high!"

The masked old man raised his eyebrows, "Master Xiang, you've got a picture!"

"You were originally a chess player, but at this moment, Li Chenan messed up your senses, and turned into a chess piece instead!"

"This plan, of course, is not to give Li Chen'an the amount of food that day to pave the way!"

"If Li Chenan wants to do this, he must leave the capital!"

"As long as he leaves the capital, he will bring all the people of the Imperial City Department with him... Shuangjiao Mountain, that place is an excellent place to bury bones!"

"Eldest Young Master guards Tai'an City, Eldest Young Master can also guard Shuangjiao Mountain!"

"Besides, Lord Yan and Luo Guogong, they can't do nothing and wait for the next good thing, right?"

"Also, the Baiyi League and the Imperial City Division have a sworn feud! If the Baiyi League finds out about this news, the old man thinks, they may also be willing to cooperate with the Prime Minister."

"Bury Li Chen'an and the elite of the Imperial City Division in Shuangjiao Mountain... Let the Baiyi League bear the responsibility for this crime, and the Prime Minister will be safe, that plan is easier to figure out!"

"This is taking his life!"

"That's all the old man said, and now we have to leave the capital. This game of chess will be played by Xiang Ye!"

Ji Tai was taken aback: "Where are you going, sir?"

The masked old man did not reply to these words.

He slowly stood up and walked behind the old man in the wheelchair.

He suddenly stretched out two hands, grabbed the old man's head, twisted suddenly, and heard a "click".

The old man's eyes bulged, and he went to see King Hades without making a sound.

Ji Tai was taken aback, and pointed at the corpse lying on the wheelchair:

"……This is?"

"He has heard the old man's voice many times."

"He always wanted to see the old man's face."

"Today's matter is too critical, and he knows too much."

"There are already many spies from the Imperial City Division [-] outside. This old man wants to leave in this wheelchair..."

"His identity is Miao Qiufen, former commander of the Second Office of the Imperial City Division!"

"After I left, in the evening, I hung his body in the octagonal pavilion outside."

The masked old man dragged the old man's body off the wheelchair.

He sat in a wheelchair, and the middle-aged man came out from the corner.

He didn't even look at the corpse on the ground, he pushed the wheelchair and walked towards the door of the study.

Suddenly, the masked old man turned his head and said a few words to Ji Tai:
"Don't screw this up!"

"If he returns to Kyoto, he will live next door to you!"

"The old man has never obtained his method of making fireworks, that kid really dares to throw you one or two here and there."

"Also, you need to stabilize the hearts of the people in the court, isn't it just vomiting three liters of blood? What is a momentary loss of face compared to the overall situation?
"If you don't go to the palace, those officials may have a different heart, and the management of these years will be in vain."

"Goodbye!"

He raised one hand and waved his back to Ji Tai.

"Sir, when will we meet again, sir?"

"Wait until the news that Li Chenan is buried in Shuangjiao Mountain is confirmed!"

The wheelchair ran over the low threshold and the Chaoshou corridor, and he just sat in the wheelchair and left the Prime Minister's mansion swaggeringly!
