Chapter Forty-Six: Competing with Old Joe

The Ten Princes were stunned and escaped from their father's death row, this is not a simple matter, how did Lao Qiao do it?

Lin Ruochen opened his mouth and asked, "What crime did Master Qiao commit before, wasn't he wronged?" ”

"I am not wronged, I killed someone in front of everyone, and the death sentence is deserved. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoBut I don't want to die yet, so I'll come out for a few more years. ”

The Ten Princes really don't know what to say, is death row a place for him to come and go whenever he wants? This is blatant irony! But the Ten Princes couldn't refute it, although he was noble, but people didn't look at it at all. The most helpless thing in the world is like this, your most worthy capital is precisely the thing that others don't look at the most.

"Old Joe, is there any special news lately? Speak up and let Zhen'er hear it. After Sima Nan spoke, Lao Qiao's eyes immediately lit up, and it seemed that the next words made him extremely proud. Lin Ruochen didn't know why he was so proud, but after listening to his words, Lin Ruochen knew that Lao Qiao had the capital to show off, because even Lin Ruochen admired what he found out.

"If you want to say the most noteworthy thing recently, it is the crown prince in the palace. He is a little dishonest now, designing the relationship between the six princes and the emperor, so that they are harmonious on the surface, but they hate each other very much in their hearts. ”

The Ten Princes' eyes widened, and they almost stood up and asked Old Qiao how he knew these secrets. He knew that there were a lot of dirty things in the palace that he couldn't see people, but he didn't believe that the prince, who had always been kind-hearted, would design the same kind-hearted sixth brother.

Lin Ruochen put his hand on the shoulder of the Ten Princes and signaled him not to be impulsive. But Lin Ruochen himself opened his mouth to ask his own questions.

"How did the prince instigate, does Master Qiao know the details?"

Lao Qiao nodded: "The prince designed to frame Jiang Guifei, so that the emperor could see Jiang Guifei betraying him, and the emperor executed Jiang Guifei in a fit of anger......"

"Nonsense!" The Ten Princes still didn't hold back after all. If the crown prince has his own careful thoughts, the ten princes believe it. But he didn't believe that the prince would use all his scheming to frame Jiang Guifei, and he didn't believe that the prince would have such a cruel side.

In fact, the relationship between the ten princes and the crown prince is not intimate, but after all, they live in the same environment, and because of the relationship between the queen, they meet much more often than other princes. Compared with outsiders who have never met, the Ten Princes naturally trust the prince more, and it is natural to defend him.

Lao Qiao was hindered by Sima Nan's relationship, and did not express his dissatisfaction with the words of the Ten Princes, if it was someone else, Lao Qiao would have left long ago. He was the most reluctant to serve these rich aristocratic sons, obviously he didn't have any ability, but he felt that he was very remarkable.

Sima Nan's face sank, but he didn't say anything. After Lin Ruochen saw it, he once again experienced the coldness of family affection. He knew the cold relationship between the royal family, but he didn't expect it to be the same here. Lin Ruochen came here with the Ten Princes for nearly a month, but he didn't see Sima Nan ask the Ten Princes if he was doing well, nor did he ask him if he had been wronged, and he didn't even say a word of intimacy with him alone.

At this moment, Sima Nan expressed dissatisfaction with the actions of the Ten Princes to protect the crown prince, what qualifications did he-what qualifications do he have to express dissatisfaction? As the grandfather of the Ten Princes, he did not accompany him for a day. It was the crown prince, although he had bad intentions towards the Ten Princes, but he took care of the Ten Princes when he was a child, and fulfilled the responsibilities of an older brother.

"The crown prince took great care of the Ten Princes before, and when the Ten Princes had no one to rely on, the crown prince was the only one who cared about him." Lin Ruochen looked at Sima Nan when he said this, he wanted to see if this decisive person would feel guilty for the Ten Princes.

How could Sima Nan not hear what Lin Ruochen meant, let alone the accusation in Lin Ruochen's eyes was so strong. He coughed embarrassedly and said to Lao Qiao: "Zhen'er values love and righteousness, and the love of dripping water can also be reciprocated." Old Qiao, you will be blessed with Zhen'er in the future, Zhen'er will never treat the people around him who are loyal to him. ”

Lin Ruochen sighed, is Sima Nan helping the Ten Princes when he says this? At least Lin Ruochen didn't hear the slightest hint of maintenance in these ambiguous words.

"Old Qiao thanked the Ten Princes in advance here!" Old Qiao saluted the Ten Princes.

Lin Ruochen said with a cold face: "Qiao Ye is also a chic person, I'm afraid the deep palace compound can't restrain Qiao Ye, right?" ”

Lao Qiao's face changed, Lin Ruochen's subtext was that the Ten Princes couldn't restrain you, and you were just pretending to flatter you now. The person who was polite and polite just now changed his tone in the blink of an eye, so that Lao Qiao didn't understand it for a while.

"The Ten Princes are surrounded by talents, even if they are not strong enough, but they are loyal enough, this is the greatest blessing of the Ten Princes. Why don't we have a competition, if Qiao Ye wins, you can put forward a condition to us. If we win, we make a request to you. How is it? Lin Ruochen looked at Lao Qiao, and the naked declaration of war in his eyes made Lao Qiao suddenly a little stage frightened. I don't know why, Old Joe, who was high-spirited just now, suddenly felt that he might lose. Although this thought was fleeting, Lin Ruochen's aura had already interfered with Lao Qiao, which was probably what is often said to overwhelm the other party in momentum.

However, Old Joe would not admit defeat, and he said in an arrogant tone: "Well, better than what? Biwen or jousting? ”

Sima Nan was also interested, because he also hoped that through this matter, he could understand Lin Ruochen's true ability.

"The Ten Princes have a landscape painting in their hands, which was painted by the former emperor when he was alive. If you can steal it out of the hands of the Ten Princes in three days, you win. Of course, I also have a few copies in my hand, I hope you can distinguish the real from the fake, and don't steal the fake one. ”

Lao Qiao thought that Lin Ruochen would make things difficult for him, but he didn't expect things to be so easy. Because what Old Joe is best at is sneaking into other people's rooms, and almost all the doors and windows are decorations for him. What's more, Sima Nan has gone out many times here, and it is easy to get a painting when the terrain is familiar. The only difficulty is to distinguish the authenticity of the paintings, but Old Joe has seen more paintings, and he believes that he can tell the authenticity at a glance.

"Tomorrow dawn officially starts, I'm going to set up it tonight, no problem, right?" Lin Ruochen looked at Lao Qiao with a smile, and he was also full of confidence in victory.

Old Joe nodded, and their first battle officially began!

After Lao Qiao left, Sima Nan introduced a few more people to the Ten Princes and Lin Ruochen, who were also secret guards who collected intelligence from all over the world, but they were far worse than Lao Qiao. The long hours of underground work affected their behavior, so that Lin Ruochen could see their strangeness at a glance. The Ten Princes came forward to deal with these people, but Lin Ruochen remained silent, not because he didn't want to speak, but because he was already planning a contest with Lao Qiao in his mind.
