437 Preparation

The young fat man sighed, as if a little sad and helpless.

The man named Lin Juzheng dragged the cold and silent smoke cloud into the inner room. At the same time, a young woman came out from the inner room. Then he walked to the front of the fat young man, was sitting and kneeling, and said softly: "Your Highness, Yanyun is to blame for this. She received His Highness's kindness, but turned to others. Such a person, it is not a pity to die. You don't have to do it for a ruthless harlots and trouble themselves."

"After raising a dog for a long time, I still have some feelings after all." The young fat man sighed: "Among the eight brothers, I am the fattest, ugliest, and least conspicuous. I am not the opponent of the seventh and eighth brothers. I am not as good as the third brother and the eldest brother in essay writing and erudition. I don’t say anything when Yanyun throws herself at any of them. Why does she choose the fifth brother? She knows that I and the fifth brother are not on the right track. Sooner or later, we will have to fight to the death, why is she..."

The young fat man threw the wine glass on the table, slapped his hands heavily, and after venting his anger a little, he said: "The ancestor of the Chen family is really not simple, not to mention his large-scale mental shock just now, just simple Seeing through my plot to kill people with a borrowed knife is enough to prove that he is a scholar, but I don’t understand, isn’t a scholar unable to use spells? Why does he still have a mental shock? What is going on!” I don’t think it matters much. Although that kind of mental shock is pretty good, it’s okay to scare ordinary people, but if it’s used for fighting, it’s not qualified.” Liu Ying smiled slightly: “The trouble I find now is that he doesn’t say anything It is a blow to the reputation of Tianxiang Pavilion, and it is also a blow to the reputation of the royal family. Fourth Highness, what do you think should be done?"

"What can we do? Just let it go." His Highness said with a sneer: "In the past few years, there have been riots in the north and south. Our royal family is almost unable to get out just to suppress the rebellion. If we turn against the old Chen family now, it will be terrible." Not a wise choice. When the rebellion subsides, I will have time to brew them later."

Liu Ying poured a cup of tea for the fat young man: "Fourth Highness, do you want me to deal with them?"

"No!" The fourth prince shook his head: "He is a soul thinker, his woman, and the ancestors of the Chen family are the servants of the sun god. If they join forces, if they don't have the strength to absolutely crush them. Going to fight with them is tantamount to courting death. I have already considered the current situation in the court, no one knows the old Chen family's 2000-year-old background and the strength behind it, if we confront each other head-on, we will only suffer."

"Then Fourth Highness, are we going to endure it like this?" Liu Ying was a little confused.But his face was still cold. "Be patient, Taizu endured for 14 years in the previous dynasty in order to conquer the country." The fourth prince stood up: "It's okay for us to endure for a few more years. Liuying, you have supported Tianxiang Pavilion for me, other things You don't need to worry about it. As long as Tianxiang Pavilion can still provide us with a lot of money, it will be a great achievement."

Although Liu Ying was a little bit unwilling, she still nodded.

Chen Xiansong took Zhang Haifeng's mother and daughter back to the West Courtyard, and just settled them down in Huilian's inquiring eyes, when Chen Tianhe and Chen Tiancai appeared.The two old people came together, naturally they had something to talk about, but when they got to the front hall, Chen Tiancai waved away the people around him, and asked directly: "Grandpa, I heard that you brought this mother and daughter back, but you didn't even pay for it. Are you planning to directly turn against the royal family? This is a bit too fast. According to our calculations, it will take at least another two years to be the best time."

Hearing this, Chen Xiansong understood that although the old Chen family appeared to be amiable and respectful of the law, in essence, they also had desires for the throne, but they usually hid it better.Now that I see the opportunity, I am already preparing.

"No rush. The royal family doesn't dare to confront us openly." Chen Xiansong said with a smile: "I have checked a lot of news and read a lot of things on the street these two days. They are already in a hurry, and even their watchdog, Prince Liang's Mansion doesn't have many troops, if we try harder at this time, they will definitely take a step back."

The two elders glanced at each other, and then Chen Tianhe said, "Grandpa, what do you mean... now is the best time for us?"

Chen Xiansong shook his head: "Not yet. I don't know how much strength you have in private, and I think Sister Qianxin doesn't know, but I believe that it is definitely not as good as the royal family. Otherwise, hundreds of years ago, the old Chen family won the country. Not the Liang family. Anyway, now that the royal family is weak, it is indeed an opportunity, but it is not yet time for him to fall. If we do something now and make the royal family take precautions, it will be very difficult for my purpose to succeed, you guys If you want to be in the top position, you don’t have many chances. Just wait. The rebellion between the North and the South won’t end so soon. Let them consume more. What you have to do now is to secretly produce more weapons and armor, and then recruit more people to gain strength. , no matter when you will not suffer, as long as you find an opportunity, then it will really be the King of Changing Banner."

The eyes of the two old men were shining brightly, as if thinking of that moment, they even became short of breath.

"But now, we have to act in secret and accumulate strength quietly." Chen Xiansong chuckled: "But I really didn't expect that you would actually have a plan to rise to the throne, do you have any plans for who will be crowned the Dragon Throne? "

Chen Tianhe and Chen Tiancai shook their heads. Among the younger generation of the Chen family, there is no one who can take on this important task.

"Actually, I think Chen Jialuo is pretty good. As long as he cultivates a little bit, he must be a good seedling."

The two old men thought for a while, then stood up together, bowed to Chen Xiansong and left.

Since ancient times, countless aristocratic families wanted to sit in that position, but very few succeeded. Since the old Chen family had this idea, Chen Xiansong felt that it was necessary for him to help them.In the past two days, he asked Chen Jialuo to help him investigate a lot of things, and he also listened to and read it outside... Although he is really not very good at understanding the world, but no matter what he said, his vision, at least Much, much earlier than most people in this era.

The north-south riots have been going on for several years. Although Heluo City has not been affected much, Chen Xiansong understands that for a large country, several years of riots have already destroyed the economies of those places. Slowly spread to the surrounding, and it will make the economic status of the entire country more and more corrupt.

Three years ago, one copper dollar in Heluo City could buy two catties of rice. This price has been maintained for more than 100 years, but now two copper dollars can buy one catty of rice.From this trivial point of view, Chen Xiansong can tell that the situation in the Cathay Kingdom is not optimistic.

It is very troublesome and dangerous to steal a country in such a complicated environment, and he has no such experience.But... the founders of any dynasty definitely have no similar experience, so this does not prevent Chen Xiansong from thinking and calculating. Recently, he feels that such things are actually quite interesting.

For Chen Xiansong, participating in the change of dynasty is just a very interesting thing.But in the eyes of Chen Tiancai and Chen Tianhe, it was a matter that couldn't be bigger.After the two returned to their rooms, they both began to issue various secret orders.

They also understand that now is the best opportunity for the old Chen family. They have never been so close to success in more than 2000 years, and what they have to do now is to take action, and then put all their energy into it and take a gamble.

Chen Jialuo was working in the grain store, and he felt an indescribable pleasure watching the sacks of rice rush into the warehouse.Although these grains are only ten cents in nine years compared to Prince Liang's Mansion, at least they have started to stockpile grains now, which is a good thing.The most important thing is that the old grandfather actually got Zhang Haifeng over here. This person is indeed one of the big grain merchants back then. Once he came here, he negotiated a deal in less than three hours and gave him food immediately. The trip brought a business of three thousand stones.

What a talent!Zhang Haifeng has been wandering on the street for several months, why no one thought of recruiting him, helping him pay off his debts, and taking it for his own use.But only the old grandfather thought of this, and I have to say that the old grandfather is worthy of being a scholar, but there are also many scholars in Heluo City, why only the old grandfather can think of this, and others can't think of it.

It seems that scholars also have strengths and weaknesses.

When he was sighing, a servant came over and whispered something in his ear, and he hurried back to Chenjiazhuang.

The person who summoned him was Chen Tiancai. This clan elder saw Chen Jialuo in the study. He handed a list to Chen Jialuo and said, "You must do these things within half a year. If you can do it, Take it and leave, if you can't do it, leave now, you can't spread a word about what you see."

Chen Jialuo looked at it for a while, and took a breath. The things he was asked to do in the list were very messy and trivial, but he could feel that the clan seemed to be planning a big event.If these things are to be completed within six months, it will be very difficult, and he may not be able to complete them due to exhaustion, but there is always a voice in his heart crying out, telling him that this is the best opportunity.

"Uncle Cai, I will do my best." Chen Jialuo put the list into his sleeves and replied in a very firm tone.

In the evening, Chen Xiansong sat on the bed thinking all night, Bai Qianxin did not force him to sleep, the next day, with a pair of dark circles under his eyes, he had breakfast in the front hall, and then sat in the carriage with Bai Qian Qian Xin went to Qin's house.

The Qin family is also one of the big grain merchants. This family is full of flirtatious people. This is an elegant way of saying it. If it is changed to be harsher, it would be: all men in the Qin family are perverts.
