Everything starts from Menghualu

Chapter 397: Mediation
"Your Majesty, are you so confident that the Crown Prince will not suddenly attack you in the future?" Luo Zishang asked

"Sir, there are some things that I cannot choose not to do just because I want to. This is the best option for my current situation."

"You can't ask me to leave my eldest brother behind and support my second brother, right? The key is my other two brothers. I don't know if they have other ideas or not."

"As for what you said about the prince attacking me? Of course I have considered this, but that is a matter for the future. What you should consider is to get this matter over with first." Liu Changfeng said

"Your Majesty, you are right. We really can't delay any longer. However, how do you plan to implement our agreement?" Luo Zishang said directly.

"Hmm? Sir, shouldn't I be the one asking you this? The decision-making power is in your hands, isn't it? If you have made up your mind, I will have nothing to say." Liu Changfeng said directly

"Your Majesty, now that things have come to this, it seems that I made the decision, but in fact I have no chance at all, right? After all, do I still have a choice now?" Luo Zishang said

"Sir, even if the matter has come to this point, you still have a choice. After all, my brothers, especially my second brother, are very suitable, right?" Liu Changfeng said

"Haha, Your Majesty, at this point of daily progress, can you still test me? With Jiang He's help, do you think they are still opponents?" Luo Zishang said in a deep voice

"Hmm? Sir, from what I hear, you admit that you are not as good as Jiang He? This will be very interesting. I remember you were not like this before." Liu Changfeng said with a smile

"Haha, there's nothing wrong with admitting this. His methods are indeed much more sophisticated than mine. If we were to face each other head-on, I might not be his opponent."

"I was able to suppress him before, but that was entirely because he and I were not equal. But now, after the crown prince takes action, everything will be different." Luo Zishang said

"Haha, sir, you know, I admire you more and more now. You have one more advantage in my eyes: you know yourself."

"Don't worry, sir. I will definitely let you avenge this, but I don't agree with your approach because it will give others an opportunity."

"That's what happened with the prince this time. You made a big fuss about it, so the prince paid attention to it and took it seriously, which is why Jiang He got the chance."

"When you face the river, you naturally have a desperate feeling, and this is exactly the reason for your failure this time." Liu Changfeng said

After hearing this, Luo Zishang did not speak for a while. He began to reflect on what Liu Changfeng said. Although he always felt that there was something wrong, he had to admit that Liu Changfeng was right.

He was indeed too impatient and failed to control himself, which resulted in him making things worse. He really lost at his own hands this time.

"It seems that you have figured it out, sir? Since you have figured it out, then be prepared. I estimate that the prince will soon start to play matchmaker to ease the relationship between you and your son."

"So I think it's better for you to make preparations early. Since you have chosen me, I will definitely not let you down. I will naturally help you when the time comes." Liu Changfeng said

"In that case, thank you very much, Your Majesty. I am sorry for bothering you today. Bye." Luo Zishang said

Looking at Luo Zishang's departing back, a bright smile appeared on Liu Changfeng's lips. He knew that from this day on, until Jiang He died, Luo Zishang would help him.

My plan this time has achieved the results I wanted.

While they were discussing, the prince was also meeting Jiang He.

"Mr. Jiang, please don't be polite. Your talent is obvious to all. Your abilities over the years are also well known to everyone."

"I took action this time only because I didn't want you and your son to kill each other, so that you won't regret it in the future. So sir, please don't think too much about it, and don't thank me." The prince said
"Your Highness, I will never forget your kindness. From now on, if you give me any instructions, I will definitely repay you for your kindness." Jiang He bowed and said
"Sir, look at what you are doing, sit down quickly, sit down quickly, sir, your identity is still a little embarrassing, so it is still a little inappropriate to be an official, but you don't have to worry."

"I will go and ask my father to let you be an official in my Eastern Palace. Take your time." The prince said
After Jiang He heard this, he naturally expressed his gratitude again. After the two talked for about a quarter of an hour, Jiang He stood up and left. After he left, the prince was obviously in a much better mood.

He now has some trust in his fifth brother. Although he knows that the purpose is by no means as simple as he said, at least the current result is in his favor.

So he decided to have a good meeting with his fifth brother in a few days. It was time for them to have a frank talk, and Zhenghai could also resolve the issue of Jianghe and his son.

Emperor Xining did not have much objection to his eldest son's decision to employ Jiang He, but agreed directly. After all, Jiang He was indeed a talent.

As for his relationship with King Liang? All of King Liang's lineage had been killed, so what if they were related? What's more, he had a son who was his enemy.

This made Emperor Xining feel more relieved. After the prince had settled the matter, he did not summon Liu Changfeng. He wanted to show his closeness, so he personally left the palace and went to the Prince of Chuan's Mansion.

When Liu Changfeng heard that the prince was coming, he was somewhat surprised, but he was not surprised for long and went out with his family to greet him.

"Fifth brother, why are you being so polite? My sister-in-law is pregnant, why are you still torturing her like this? Send her back quickly, quickly." The prince said hurriedly
"Brother, of course I have to greet you when you come. Don't worry, Yun'er is fine. Please, let's go to the study first." Liu Changfeng said

"Fifth brother, I have thought about what you said last time for a long time, and I have done what you said. Now Jiang He is at my disposal, so what about his family members?" said the prince.
"Brother, it's not that I don't want to let them go, but I can't. After all, I haven't convinced Luo Zishang yet, so it's safer for them to stay in the government office." Liu Changfeng said

"Well, speaking of Luo Zishang, do you think we can mediate so that the father and son don't confront each other so sharply? After all, they are a family now." The prince said
"Brother, this may be difficult. After all, Luo Zishang has suffered a lot since he was a child. This resentment cannot be put down with just a few words." Liu Changfeng said with embarrassment. "Well, this is a problem, but we can't do nothing. How about this? I will personally come forward to mediate between them, and you go find Luo Zishang." The prince said
"Ah? Brother, can you please reconsider this? Aren't you too anxious?" Liu Changfeng said

"No need, let's cut the Gordian knot. The more you think about some things, the more hesitant you become." The prince said directly
After hearing this, Liu Changfeng didn't say anything, but nodded directly. Then he got up and went out to instruct Liu Quan, and then returned to the study.

"What did you say? The prince wants to mediate? Did the prince really say that?" Luo Zishang asked
"Yes, sir, that's what my prince said. The prince is in my prince's study right now. My prince asked you to be ready." Liu Quan bowed and said
"Okay, I understand. Please tell the prince that I will go right away." Luo Zishang said

After Liu Quan left, Ming Yi asked, "Sir, are you really going to let it go?"

"Let it go? How is that possible? How can I let it go? It's just that the situation is stronger than me now. Since I did something wrong, I must pay the price."

"Okay, let's go quickly. We can't let the prince wait anxiously." Luo Zishang said directly

Liu Quan had just returned to the palace not long ago when Luo Zishang arrived, so Luo Zishang entered the study.

"Your humble servant greets His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Prince of Chuan." Luo Zishang bowed and said

"Okay, no need to be polite. You don't need to exert much effort here. Please sit down, my dear." said the prince.
After hearing this, Luo Zishang slowly sat down, and the prince nodded upon seeing this.

"My dear, I think you understand why I asked you to come here. Can you put aside your matter with the Jiang family for the sake of my face?" The prince said directly
"Your Highness, this, well, I can put it aside temporarily, but Your Highness, you have to tell me how long I have to put it aside." Luo Zishang said with a somewhat grim expression.
"Don't worry, my dear. I won't make things too difficult for you. How about this, one year, just one year. If you still want revenge after one year, I will never stop you." The prince said
After hearing this, Luo Zishang had no choice but to agree, no matter how reluctant he was. Seeing Luo Zishang nod, the prince was very happy and left happily.

After he left, Liu Changfeng and Luo Zishang returned to the study, and no one spoke for a while.

"Sir, I am sorry for what happened this time. I apologize to you here. I didn't expect that the prince would suddenly intervene in this matter." Liu Changfeng said directly

"Your Majesty, please don't say that. I am already very grateful that you can keep the people in the yamen. This time, it's my fault for not thinking carefully, not your fault, Your Majesty."

"I underestimated Jiang He, so this happened. Don't worry, Your Majesty. I won't make things difficult for you in the next year." Luo Zishang said in a deep voice.

"Hey, this is really... Never mind, sir. I know you are in a bad mood today, so I won't keep you any longer. Liu Quan, please help me see you off, sir." Liu Changfeng said.

After hearing this, Luo Zishang naturally stood up. He had actually wanted to leave for a long time, and now he could leave quickly. Liu Changfeng looked at his back as he left and shook his head helplessly.

In fact, he didn't intend to do this at first, but who can blame Luo Zishang for being too thoughtful? He could only use Jiang He's affairs to keep him hanging.

If he still wanted to deal with Jiang He, he would have to turn to himself, so even though he knew there would be some problems, he still did it.

In fact, Luo Zishang had also figured this out at this time, so his face looked very ugly. After returning to his room, he smashed a lot of things out of control.

But he recovered quickly. After all, he knew very well that being furious at this moment would not solve any problems. He could only start planning again.

At this time, the prince summoned Jiang He again and told him the news.

"Sir, I can only help you up to this point with you and Lord Luo. From now on, it's up to you. I can't do anything about it." The prince said helplessly.

"Your Highness, you are too kind. I am embarrassed by your words. I am grateful to you for helping me delay for a year. I thank Your Highness for your great kindness." Jiang He knelt down and said
"Sir, please get up quickly. Please get up quickly. Please don't do this. It's too formal. Drive quickly." The prince hurried forward to support him.

For a moment, a scene of the prince being courteous to the wise appeared. The final result, of course, was that Jiang He left the East Palace with many thanks and returned to the Gu family.

"Brother, you said things have taken a turn for the better? Is this true? Did the prince really help?" Jiang Rou said
"That's right, Your Highness really helped and delayed the matter for a year. As long as Zishang can calm down within this year, then everything will be solved naturally." Jiang He said
"Ah, this is great, this is great, second brother, now I can finally breathe a sigh of relief, I believe you, you can definitely solve the problem within a year." Jiang Rou said happily.

After hearing this, Jiang He's face was naturally full of smiles, but in fact he was very uneasy in his heart, because he had no confidence that he could solve the problem within a year.

But he couldn't say it now. After all, it had been a whole year. If the problem couldn't be solved, then his family would really deserve to die.

Because of this, the matter came to a temporary end. Liu Changfeng successfully returned to his previous life and just spent time with his wife every day.

"Your Highness, you don't have to accompany me every day. You can go and do your own things. I'm really fine. There are so many people in this mansion." Yun'er said directly
"Okay, Madam, don't worry about these. Your current task is to take care of the baby peacefully. As for the rest, you don't have to worry about it. I will make my own arrangements."

"Madam, what I said is true. I have planned all these things, so you really don't have to worry too much. Just stay at home and take care of your baby." Liu Changfeng said with a smile

"Okay, then I'll listen to you, Your Majesty. But can you tell the kitchen not to send me any more greasy food? I, I can't eat any more." Yun'er said helplessly.

"Really? Okay, I'll tell them, don't worry. But sometimes you still have to eat more so that the baby in your belly will have strength."

"I'll ask them to adjust their diet and try not to have too many tonic foods." Liu Changfeng said directly.

"Well, I know that you are the best, my husband. You don't know that the food delivered recently is too good. It was okay at first, but later I couldn't eat it." Yun'er said
