The whole capital thinks I'm a lone star

Chapter 87 Fourth Prince Rong Kai

If it weren't for Gu Chuan's dedication to preaching and dispelling doubts, he must have done something in the court now. Li Shichun admired him when he was in school, and he still does now.

Gu Chuan still had that indifferent look, he didn't comment on Wei Zhao, he just said, "How about the questions for this year's freshman assessment on my behalf?"

"Of course it's good. With the help of Junior Brother Gu, my Lishan Academy will definitely be able to absorb more talents this year." Li Shichun was used to being idle, and he was very happy to have help.

Seeing Junior Brother Gu calmly drinking tea, this year's freshman assessment should be very interesting.

Qin Shu smiled and shook his head.

At dusk, the setting sun dyed half of the sky red.

Outside the capital, on the official road, cavalry roared past.

The leader was dressed in white armor, with a handsome and resolute face. When he raised his voice to rein in his horse, the setting sun illuminated his handsome side face, and he was full of vigor.

"His Royal Highness Ling returns to Beijing, and the idlers give way." With a loud shout, His Royal Highness Rong Kai, who went to the battlefield at the age of 13 and has been on the battlefield for seven years, entered the capital.

Prince Ling's mansion has been idle for five years, and today the master finally moved in.

When Rong Kai went to the battlefield, he was still young and had not yet opened the mansion. The palace was given to him when he was 15 years old, and Rong Kai never lived in it for a day.

After fighting in the battlefield for many years, Rong Kai felt as if he had returned to the luxurious and exquisite capital once again.

"My lord, the Prime Minister is asking to see you." As soon as Rong Kai entered the inner room, the housekeeper came to report.

"Please." Rong Kai took off his armor, changed into his normal clothes and went out.

The current prime minister, Jiang An, was a veteran of the two dynasties. He had been in the officialdom for many years and had a high reputation in the court. He was not only the prime minister on the spot, but also the grandfather of the fourth prince Ling Wang.

Through the dim light, Prime Minister Jiang saw a tall figure standing in the middle hall, his eyes were moist for a moment, after seven years, he finally came back.

"The old minister pays homage to His Highness King Ling."

Jiang An wanted to salute, but Rong Kai helped him up before he bowed down, "What is Grandpa doing, and there are no outsiders here."

I haven't seen you for seven years, and the old man's body is much thinner than before. Rong Kai helped him to sit down, and asked with concern: "How is grandpa's health? Ning Yuan is not filial, and you are worried."

"It's the greatest filial piety for you to come back safely. You won't leave this time, will you?" Jiang An asked tentatively.

Rong Kai nodded, "There is no fighting at the border, and Father also hopes that I can stay longer."

What Jiang An asked was not this. There could be many reasons for a prince with great military exploits to stay in the capital. Rong Kai did not answer the question directly, and Jiang An was not in a hurry. As long as he can stay, it will be a matter of time before he takes that step.

These princes in the capital, as long as they are interested in that position, no one can tolerate the existence of a brother who is famous for his military achievements abroad. This is like a whirlpool, and no one can stand in the center without being dragged down.

If you want absolute security, you must have absolute power.

"Ningyuan is already a weak year this year. It was just at the border before. Now that he has returned to Beijing this time, the marriage should be settled." The matter of staying in the capital is coming to an end, Jiang An cleverly changed the topic.

Among His Majesty's princes who are over 15 years old, there are only two unmarried ones. One is his own grandson, and the other is His Highness Ninth Prince. No one is willing to marry their daughter, but the grandson's situation is different. He has made outstanding military exploits and a great reputation, and everyone praises him. No matter how bad a good son-in-law is.

Rong Kai couldn't laugh or cry when the Prime Minister, who had been in business in the court for many years and was used to turning around a few corners, forced the marriage so bluntly.

　Ninth Highness: It has been connoted.
