Chapter 102 He is also an elder brother
The fifth prince seemed to have noticed the stiff atmosphere in the study, and turned around and said, "We have almost finished our discussions today. I'm afraid you are all tired. Why don't you go back early to rest and discuss it tomorrow."

What else can everyone say after hearing this?
Can't say anything!

Seeing Zhang Xiuru leaving with his hands behind his back, the other staff and retainers could only bow and leave.

After everyone left, the fifth prince became serious and said, "Aren't you afraid of arousing public anger by acting like this?"

Dongfang Yuebai glanced at the fifth prince, "Are you afraid?"

How could the fifth prince not be afraid?
Now is the time to recruit talents. I heard that the second prince's staff and retainers have increased a lot. What should he do if the people around him mistakenly think that he is just for fun and turn around and leave?
Dongfang Yuebai patted the fifth prince on the shoulder and said, "Whether it is the current staff or retainers, or the officials standing in the court, ministers are ministers. If they don't even know how to obey, then such people will remain here." Those around me will only be hidden dangers in the future.”

The fifth prince was stunned, "So you deliberately let out the news that you and I have a good relationship, not only to provoke the second and fourth brothers, but also to test the people around me?"

Dongfang Yuebai teased the bird in the cage and then said, "The emperor is in his prime. As a prince, you can be aggressive, but you cannot show your impatience for imperial power. It is just right to be slow and slow."

The fifth prince breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, "What you said does make some sense, but in the future, could you please inform me in advance of your actions? Don't just rush in with a bird cage without saying a word. You never thought about it." , if I don’t cooperate with you, what will you do?”

Dongfang Yuebai raised his eyebrows, "Will Your Highness do it?"

Fifth Prince, "..."

You just knew I wouldn't do it, so that's why you're so blatant, right?

"Yuebai, you know, I have always regarded you as my brother. In this world, even the mother-in-law and the queen empress value me because they have strong intentions. Only you have always treated me sincerely and never left me. Abandoned person, so no matter what you do, I will never doubt it, even if I don’t take that position, you..."

The fifth prince had a rare moment of emotion, but was directly interrupted by Dongfang Yuebai, "Don't pass by my door when begging for food. I don't have any extra food for you."

Fifth Prince, "..."

Can we have a good chat!

"By the way, my people recently discovered that the Second Emperor's behavior was a bit strange." The Fifth Prince frowned.

Dongfang Yuebai said 'hmm', "Tell me about it."

"There have been many unfamiliar faces coming in and out of the Second Prince's Mansion recently. I sent someone to investigate carefully. Not only have these people not participated in the scientific examinations over the years, they are not the children of officials. Instead, they are some private doctors." The Fifth Prince. The more he spoke, the tighter his brows became.

Initially, he thought there was something wrong with his father's health, but after several attempts in the palace, he found that there was nothing unusual about his father's complexion.

"Looking at it, in a while, it will be the day to go to the Taiyuan Hospital to recruit tributes."

The Gongli Tai Hospital uses countless medicines every year. Therefore, various local conferences send special personnel to the Tai Hospital every month to transport locally produced medicinal materials.

It’s just that the quantity of these medicinal materials is huge, and it is impossible to carefully screen and inspect them just by relying on the doctors of the Taiyuan Hospital. Therefore, the imperial court will recruit medical clinics in the capital to screen and inspect the medicinal materials for the Taiyuan Hospital, so as to have a better time to terminate the contract.

The fifth prince looked at Dongfang Yuebai and was stunned, "You mean, the second prince recruits doctors in private for this purpose? But why does he want to recruit tribute?"

Dongfang Yuebai was tired of playing with the birds, picked up the tea cup and sipped lightly, "You only thought of the second prince, so naturally you think this is ridiculous, but if you add the stepmother in my house, it will make sense." There are too many.”

The eldest lady, Mrs. Liu, owns the Dongfang family's medicine shop. Although the business has been good these years, the second prince has been recruiting troops, so the more money, the better.

Although when the imperial hospital recruits tribute, the court will not give a lot of money to the pharmacy that recruits tribute, but officials in various places will never give less money to the pharmacy that recruits tribute, in order to prevent their medicinal materials from being deliberately reduced, thus causing the emperor unhappy.The fifth prince was stunned for a moment, "So, you already have the evidence?"

"What evidence is needed for such a simple thing?"

"Then how do you know that?"

"Guess."

Fifth Prince, "..."

Are you a liar?

Of course, the fifth prince didn't believe that Dongfang Yuebai dared to swear here for such a big thing just by guessing. But after thinking about it, he understood that this guy seemed to be an incompetent dude, but in fact he was raising a man under his command. , a network of eyeliners has long been established in Shangjing.

"I still need to think carefully about how to deal with this matter, so I won't keep you for dinner." The fifth prince waved his hand, implying that he would leave slowly without seeing you off.

Dongfang Yuebai stood up and stretched, and said slowly, "Even if you keep me here from now on, I won't eat with you anymore."

The fifth prince was stunned, "Why?"

Dongfang Yuebai glanced lightly, "My wife should still be waiting for me to eat, so there's no need to send it away."

The fifth prince understood.

It turns out that he was the one who was abandoned.

Dongfang Yuebai got into the carriage under the watchful eyes of the fifth prince. As soon as he returned to the mansion, he heard about Su Chengying's feat in the mansion.

Especially the servants in the mansion are now praising Su Chengying for being a flesh-and-blood master, and they are also secretly trying their best to find out whether Jiaziyuan is still short of manpower.

As for those who had taken the initiative to leave Jiaziyuan before, it can be said that their intestines were filled with regret.

Dongfang Yuebai returned to Jiaziyuan all the way. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Su Chengying, who was praised by everyone, sitting on the couch and flipping through a book on Chinese medicine.

Her black hair is scattered and her face is as warm as jade. Just looking at her like this makes people feel calm and peaceful.

Su Chengying heard the noise and looked up. When she saw Dongfang Yuebai coming back, she put down the medical book and stood up and said, "The food is still warm, come and eat."

Since all the servants were sent down to rest, Su Chengying simply rolled up her sleeves and served the meal herself. Dongfang Yuebai cleaned her hands and took the initiative to help with the food. Then the two of them sat down and started eating together.

Dongfang Yuebai said while eating, "When I came back, I heard that the yard of the second room was still noisy. It seems that you scared the second aunt quite a lot this time."

Su Chengying said, "She originally wanted to kill me, so I was merciful by not scaring her to death directly."

Dongfang Yuebai laughed, "Actually, there is no need to be like this. Tao Xiu is dead. No matter what my second aunt wants to do in the future, it will be nothing but nothing."

"Although this is the truth, revenge must be avenged. If you make a mistake, you must apologize. If you kill someone, you must pay with your life. Since the second lady wanted to join forces with Tao Xiu to take my life, she should be prepared for today." Su Chengying, no matter in life Still doing things, I never like ambiguity, one is one, two is two, it is so happy.
