Chapter 478: Taking advantage of the situation to make trouble

Seeing this, Lord Ye breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sure enough, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still wise and powerful."

As he was talking, a report sounded outside the door, and it was the person sent by Chen Mu to inquire about the origin of the rumor who sent the news back.

The speed was so fast, Chen Mu also felt quite satisfied.

He waved his hand, and immediately several guards marched into the main hall.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, it is not your expectation, it is indeed someone who is secretly stirring up the people's hearts and spreading rumors."

"We have detected that those people are a merchant from the border city, and we have sent someone to keep them under surveillance.

When Chen Mu heard this, his eyes moved slightly.

"Is it a Great Xia merchant?"

"Yes, they are from the southern border city, and we sent someone to inquire about their origins, and found that they are from the border city where there is an uprising."

As soon as he heard the other party say this, Chen Mu immediately understood.

It seems that the rebel army sent people to spread the news in the capital, stir up the people's hearts, and want to increase their momentum.

At the same time, he suppressed the prestige of himself and his father.

Chen Mu sneered, these people are very shrewd.

Chen Muke did not despise their actions.

If it had been discovered that the people they had acted on were from a large family, perhaps they would not have taken the actions of the rebels to heart.

But Chen Muke understands too well the importance of popular support to rulers.

"Is there still no news from General Zhang? What happened to the guards he had sent? Have the rebels been suppressed? ”

Chen Mu thought about it for a while and asked about the uprising in the border city

"General Zhang really hasn't heard from him yet, as for the soldiers and horses he brought, they are quite good, and they have suppressed most of the rebel army."

"There are two other rebel groups that have moved to other towns, and there is no news yet."

Those rebels were originally from ordinary people, and as soon as they took off their armor, put on coarse cloth clothes, pretended to be peasant households, and blended into the crowd, it was extremely difficult to be detected.

The remaining rebels were not numerous, and it was easier to cover their tracks.

Chen Mu sighed, nodded and agreed.

Therefore, it is imperative to find General Zhang as soon as possible.

General Zhang is extraordinary, deploying troops, and his ability to arrange troops is also first-class.

This time he suddenly disappeared over there, which also surprised Chen Mu, Chen Mu thought about it, and called the officials of the research government to inquire about the research progress of agricultural equipment.

Li Mao stepped into the hall dejectedly, he was still feeling guilty for his rash action to suppress the people some time ago, if he hadn't made a move at that time, those people would not have used this excuse to slander His Royal Highness the Prince.

Chen Mu raised his head and glanced at Li Mao, and saw Li Mao drooping his head, looking sullen.

Chen Mu smiled and said a word of relief.

"It's someone planning to make a living behind it."

"Even if you don't take action to suppress the people, there will be people who will use other reasons to smear the reputation of me and my father, you don't have to think about it."

"The things I asked you to study have already been studied, and the harvesting and planting equipment should have been studied."

"I've already given you the sketches I've worked on, you just need to refine the details."

Seeing Chen Mu say this, Li Mao sighed heavily, nodded and agreed.

A few days ago, Chen Mu sent someone to send them two drawings, which were the equipment for planting and accompanying crops and the equipment for harvesting crops.

They were also shocked when they got their hands on the two sketches.

I didn't expect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to be so good at researching the prototypes of two instruments in such a short time.

And the prototype is quite reasonable, extremely exquisite.

Except for the vague details, it can be made and promoted almost immediately!

"We have already completed the details, and we are also making the first plus device recently, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ......"

"Are we going to continue to work on farming equipment? Maybe those farmers are right, let's continue to work on equipment, for them......"

"Do what I say, I say this device is helpful to them, that is, it is helpful, those farmers can't live in the fields all their lives, facing the loess with their backs to the sky."

"For that little harvest, it took a lifetime, and I want them to have the opportunity to come out and see more of the world, and see more of the magnificent mountains and rivers of our Great Xia."

Chen Mu sighed, and a slight look of amazement appeared in his eyes.

It's a pity that those peasant farmers are too conservative to see through his plans.

But think about it, let alone a farmer, even the scholars in the academy don't understand what the purpose of what he is doing.

Now that there is such a mess, there are also scholars who enter the palace to meet him, but he has found an opportunity to send them back.

Seeing that Chen Mu had made up his mind to promote the two instruments, Li Mao and several other officials who were studying the government looked at each other, then gritted their teeth and nodded in response.

Even if it is the order of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, they will naturally do their best.

After waving his hand and holding the person back, Chen Mu called a few more henchmen.

Among them, there are adults from the Criminal Department, as well as adults from the Ministry of Industry and Commerce.

After carefully arranging the affairs of the capital, Chen Mu breathed a sigh of relief.

Lord Ye watched Chen Mu's actions from the side, and inexplicably felt that something was wrong.

Seeing that all the adults had left the palace, the sky outside the palace had also darkened.

Chen Mu waved his hand at him, and Lord Ye immediately took two steps forward and arched his hand at Chen Mu.

He cautiously glanced in the direction of Chen Mu, and then said

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, do you have any plans? Summoned those officials to the palace and explained what happened a few days later, do you want to pay a private visit? ”

"If it's a private visit from Weifu, it's naturally fine, but don't worry about going to the city where there was an uprising."

Before Chen Mu could speak, Master Ye had already made a point.

Chen Mu was stunned and chuckled helplessly.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, deliberately making an unhappy look

"Do you know that you have committed a felony by speculating on the mind of the superior?"

When Lord Ye heard Chen Mu say this, his knees weakened, and he fell to the ground with a thud.

A layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead, Chen Mu laughed sullenly when he saw him like this, and he waved his hand casually.

Of course, Chen Mu didn't care about this, he asked Lord Ye to get up, and said quietly.

"Don't worry, I didn't mean to blame you, after following me for so many years, don't you understand my temper?"

"Also...... I do intend to go to the border town where the uprising has taken place. ”

General Zhang is brave and resourceful.

After going there, Cheng suddenly disappeared, and Chen Mu suspected that his disappearance was related to the rebel army in that city.

"Those rebels are very unusual, I want to take a look and see if I can recruit them!"

Lord Ye looked up at Chen Mu in disbelief.

It's too risky!

Those rebels are cunning, what if they plot to kill His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?
