Chapter 116: Fight and Give Up
Lin Ruochen quickly stood up and saluted the prince, oh no, he saluted respectfully to the former prince. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"I'm really flattered that the prince can come, please take a seat!"
Everyone seemed to have reacted, and the crown prince was still the prince even though he was deposed, so everyone stood up and saluted. The crown prince sat down beside the ten princes with a smile, and then staged a scene of brotherhood and brotherhood for everyone......
At the end of the day, Lin Ruochen felt that his face had become stiff, he had never laughed for so long and so tired, it seemed that he was still not suitable for such an occasion after all.
After returning home in the evening, Lin Ruochen rubbed his cheeks and lazily half lay on the sofa, allowing his body to relax completely. However, the body relaxed, but the brain could not stop for a moment.
"What have you observed today?" Lin Ruochen asked the two people in front of him.
Old Qiao looked at Hongzhi and waited for him to speak first.
Hongzhi cleared his throat and reported today's incident to Lin Ruochen, "My brother said that he saw the prince stay in the carriage outside the restaurant for a long time, and then got off the bus from another street, and then returned to the restaurant to attend the banquet. ”
"I already know about this, say something else!"
Hongzhi thought for a while, "Your second brother seems to have a good chat with someone today, and after the banquet ended, the two of them went to a teahouse in the eastern suburbs alone to drink tea." ”
"Oh, what's that guy's name?"
"It seems to be Shaoqing of Dali Temple, whose name is Wang Shi. ”
"Wang Shi?" Lin Ruochen silently read the name, there seemed to be this character in his memory, if he was not mistaken, Wang Shi should have relied on his whiskers to get to his current position. Although he has served in Dali Temple for a long time, his ability to solve cases has not improved at all, and his ability to observe words and colors has been perfected. He tried his best to tie up with the favored prince all day long, and before the second prince was favored, he was a slave in front of the second prince every day. Some time ago, the prince was favored, and he dangled in front of the prince again. But now, the favored Ten Princes don't like people like him, so he starts to make up his mind elsewhere.
"This Wang Shi is not a good thing, only as soon as there is something to quickly clear himself, although I don't know how he can look down on Lin Ruoyi, but I don't think he needs to worry about it, don't spend too much energy on him. ”
Hongzhi nodded, and then told Lin Ruochen another thing he had observed today.
"The sixth prince seems to be selling some real estate these days, and some precious items at home have been sold one after another, I don't know what he wants to do, it won't be because he wants to leave the capital, right?"
Lin Ruochen was stunned for a moment, did the six princes want to withdraw from the battle for the throne? Is this his true idea, or does he want to turn from the light to the dark? Lin Ruochen hopes that it is the former, because he always feels that the six princes value love and righteousness, and are not suitable for the cruel and ruthless palace.
"Send someone to keep an eye on the six princes, and tell me in time no matter what he does. Also, I am going to give your brothers a job, and if they are okay, let them do their best work, and if they don't have good grades, at least let them support their families. ”
Hongzhi knelt down with a puff, Lin Ruochen had cleared the previous robbery case for his brother, and he was already very moved at that time. Unexpectedly, Lin Ruochen would now arrange an upright job for them and let them live like normal people, how could he not be moved?
"Don't say thank you!" Lin Ruochen stopped Hongzhi from saying in time, "I said to give them a good future, now I have paved the road, as for how to go, it is their own business, after all, what I can help is limited, and the final success depends on them." ”
Hongzhi nodded, "We won't let you down!"
"Okay, you go back and rest first, and report to me the list of people who want to eat official food tomorrow, and I will arrange it as soon as possible." ”
Hongzhi nodded again, and then trotted all the way out of the county king's mansion, it is estimated that he will not sleep tonight, he has always wanted to find something to do for his brothers before, and now that his wish has come true, where can he still sleep?
Lao Qiao looked at the ground thoughtfully, he didn't understand why Lin Ruochen wanted to waste so much energy on those bandits, those people might not necessarily create much value for him, was it really just because of brotherhood?
"You don't have anything to say?" Lin Ruochen stopped Lao Qiao from continuing to be in a daze.
Old Qiao looked at Lin Ruochen and told what he had secretly observed today, "Your uncle didn't go out today, and I didn't notice anything unusual about him." ”
Lin Ruochen smiled indifferently: "It's okay, I don't care what he's doing, because I don't believe he will harm me." ”
"One more thing, Miss Xia entered the palace last night, I don't know what happened?"
Lin Ruochen's heart tightened, and he couldn't help but be nervous about everything related to Xia Chuyan, as if it had slowly become a habit in this life.
"Is there someone in the palace who wants to see her?"
Old Qiao shook his head, "It seems that she handed over the waist card herself, but I haven't had time to find out her purpose for meeting the emperor." ”
Lin Ruochen tried his best to make himself look normal, but he knew that Lao Qiao had already spied on his thoughts, and I am afraid that he also knew his affection for Xia Chuyan.
"The king of the county doesn't have to pretend that he doesn't care in front of me, if you really like her, why don't you take the initiative?
"You don't understand!" Lin Ruochen shook his head, "I'm afraid time is running out, I can't let her be a widow for the rest of her life, right?"
Lao Qiao smiled, he really didn't understand Lin Ruochen's thoughts, in his opinion, if he loved her, he had to tell her, no matter what the result was, at least he had worked hard.
"King of the county, how do you know that she doesn't have to be widowed if she marries someone else? If other men marry her home, but start to snub her after a while, then what is the difference between her and widowhood? ”
Lin Ruochen shook her head, "There will be a better man waiting for her, she will definitely be happy!"
Lao Qiao sneered, "Don't dream about the county king, among the people I know, there is no man who cares about her more than you, it's not that other men are bad, but they don't have Miss Xia in their eyes, but those daughters who can match them." Also, Miss Xia now that she doesn't have her father's help, do you think she can still marry a child of a family? Even if she marries, how can you guarantee that her future mother-in-law will not make things difficult for her, a little woman who has no background? Or are you willing to let her marry those powerless little people, and let her husband's family live on her rich dowry?"
Lin Ruochen's face turned red, he didn't think about these problems, but he had been deliberately ignoring them, and now that he was naked on the table by Lao Qiao, he understood one thing more - he really couldn't arrange Xia Chuyan's happiness!
